Ch.1- Free once more!

It was a nice late-morning in Canterlot as Cheerilee led her class towards the area of interest right outside the palace labyrinth, Ms. Cheerilee and her class on a field trip from Ponyville. Out of the class, the most noteworthy would be three young fillies. The names of the three are Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo, who regularly cause extensive property damage in pursuit of their cutie marks. They drifted to and fro, gawking at every statue they came across, before arriving at Victory’s statue and having a discussion over her cutie mark, which quickly dissolved into an argument involving dictionaries.

Their attention was quickly gained by their teacher, as she directed them towards one of the more infamous statues. The creature of chaos, the master of disharmony, Discord. The fillies and colts looked in awe at the mismatched creature that once ruled Equestria with an iron paw/claw. However, the group quickly left as an argument began over what the statue represented.

The statue pulsed with a purple light as the stony surface began to crack and split, and with a very dramatic explosion, Discord was free. He briefly spent the first few seconds cracking his joints before looking around.

“ARGH, now where I can find those three buffoons? I would like to cause as much chaos as I can and they typically don’t disappoint me.” He said with a smirk on his face. Discord looked around his surroundings before spotting the hedge maze.

Without another word he made his way towards the large hedge maze, weaving his way to and fro, making the necessary twists and turns to reach his target: the maze center.

A popular myth regarding the maze was that Celestia had sculpted it herself and placed a prize in the center for those who could solve it. A feat easier said than done, as few ponies had the patience to persist in this endeavor. Those who cheated would be disappointed to find no reward in the center.

As Discord arrives in the center, we can see that the myth holds true. Before him stands a masterpiece that would make any artisan green with envy (provided that they’re not already green). The masterpiece in question is a large marble 3-tier fountain. The bottom tier consisted of numerous fillies and colts enjoying the bliss of their childhood. The middle tier showed three ponies, one from each of the races, performing their talents: a pegasus shaping a cloud, an earth pony tending to the wildlife, and a unicorn with its horn sparking with magic. The top tier showed Celestia and Luna holding their respective astral bodies.

However the fountain was not discord's goal in fact it was what was near the fountain, for there stood a statue with three unique looking creatures there expressions showed that they spent there last moments laughing, the statue representing Wisdom, Passion, and Destruction. These three creatures were known as Jessie, James, and meowth, or better yet known as Team Rocket, or to those who knew them, Tomas and Sarah.

Discord, took a whole three seconds before he floated over and casted a spell on the statue so he would be able to communicate with them. " Helllloooo! anyone home!!  "

"It's Discord, he's come to save us!! "

"Hooray!"

"Ya! We never doubted you for a second boss!"

" So how are guys doing! hope these last thousand years haven't been too dreadful"

" Are you kidding!? It was terrible!"

" Ya! Especially with all those damn pigeons!"

" And they even had the nerve to make fun of my hair! RGH!!! When I get my hands on those fillies!"

" Ya, ya, Down to business, look I'm not going to free you three right away."

"WHAT!!!"All three of them yelled making discord ears ring for a few seconds.

" Look I'm going to free you but first I need to secure my place as king, so here's what I'm going to do im going to place a spell on you three so when I sure I have won the spell will free you from your prison, however if I fail the spell will teleport you out of canterlot outside the everfree forest were you will be free and work together to free me, got it!? "

" Genius boss simply genius "

" That's our Discord smart and considerate."

"Are we talking about the same Discord?"

Discord grinned enjoying the boost in ego from his three comrades." Yes I am aren't I, well any ways ta ta!!" with that discord teleported away.

         -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Five hours later)

" Hey, you dont think Discord forgot us right?"

" of course not! he's probaly just securing the throne"

" Or maybe he just lost."

" Don't you dare speak like that again, what would Dis-!" The statue glowed in a blinding white light before it disappeared.

Outside ponyville in the boarder of the everfree forest there was a blinding white light and from the light team rocket came out. slightly dizzy James was the first to notice the change in scenery. " hey, where are we?"

Meowth looked around for any signs of Discord or his chaos. " I guess from how peaceful everything is, I say were outside the Everfree forest near Ponyville." Meowth slowly released what this meant. " aaahhh guys do you what this means, it means Discord lost!"

Sarah looked at Meowth who was panicking." But if that's true then." Sarah and Tomas both looked at each other before going to near panic themselves.

"But if that's true then what are we going to do?"

Sarah started to take a few calming breaths, before she looked towards Tomas with determination in her eyes. "I'll tell you what were going to do were going to do were going to up there defeat those ponies, get the elements and free Discord."

Meowth dimly walk towards Sarah. "But Sarah if Discord cant beat him what hope do we have."

Sarah walked over too Meowth. " I'll tell you what we have that he doesn't" Both Tomas and Meowth look at Sarah confused. "What we have that Discord doesn't is the exact reason why he recruited us, our Pokémon."

Meowth and Tomas looked at each other in realization. "That's right!"

Sarah glared down at Ponyville menacingly. "and while were at it we can show Equestria why they should fear the name Team Rocket"

All three of them grin and started to shout towards the sky. "TEAM ROCKET BLAST OFF TO THE SPEED OF LIGHT SURRENDER NOW OR PREPARE TO FIGHT!!!"

"MEOWTH THATS RIGHT!"

Ch.2- Ponyville Crisis

Rainbow Dash, the fastest flier in Equestria was flying at high speeds over the everfree forest. she was attempting to reach max speed on a horizontal axis rather than a vertical descent and perform a few more tricks she had thought up. Normally Rainbow Dash wouldn't be over the Everfree forest but the other areas around Ponyville weren't as challenging to fly in and if she was to join the Wonder Bolts then she wanted to train herself the hardest way possible with the Everfree's chaotic weather that moved by itself and its untamed environment.

Of course she didn't see the orb like creature until  it was way too late to change course and rammed it at top speeds. Rainbow Dash was flung off course into the cloud layers where she hanged until she regained consciousness pulling her upper half of her body out of its cloud burial. The creature in contrast was launched through a tree and into the ground. Gradually Rainbow Dash looked around, not seeing what she hit and that this forest was indeed creepy enough to leave now. If another pony was around Rainbow would bluster and pretend to be brave for them to make herself seemed more awesome, as is she didn't feel safe enough being alone over the chaotic Everfree forest, so she left trying to recall what she had hit, only recalling a purple smoke orb.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"'The Brief History of Discord's rule'." Twilight looked at the book excited that she finally found a book on the history of Discord's reign, ever since Discord's defeat twilight has been curious on what her teacher meant that discord had once ruled over Equestria in a state of unrest and unhappiness and know she will finally know! " Okay book, time to show me your secrets." Twilight opened the book and begun reading it.

"' A long time ago in the magical land of Equistria, their had rule a evil king named Discord. Discord is the spirit of chaos and disharmony who once ruled over Equestria in a state of unrest and unhappiness, Princess Luna and Princess Celestia saw how miserable the ponies had been, so in a attempt to overthrow him they had started a rebellion. But every battle they fought against the evil draconequus only resulted in defeat. One day Discord had grown bored of the rebellion and no longer found them to be amusing, so Discord went to the hideout of the two sisters in a attempt to finally crush the rebellion. However when Discord had arrive there he didn't expect to be attacked by three odd figures along with their team of strange and magical creatures who had the power to control the natural elements such as fire, electricity, grass, and many other different type of elements. Once Discord had retreated, the two sisters step out of there hiding place in order to greet and reward their heroes, when they had ask for their names they had revealed them selves to be- '"

Before Twilight could even finish the first chapter Rainbow Dash crashed into the library. "TWILIGHT!!!" Rainbow Dash flew directly towards Twilight. "Twilight you'll never guess what I just saw at the Everfree forest ."

Twilight looked at her friend unamused by her antics. "What"

"I saw a floating, purple, ball, it had two eyes and huge grin, and-and there was smoke coming out of it."

Twilight gave rainbow a blank look. "Rainbow, I am very busy and I have no time for your pranks-"

Rainbow flew up towards twilight again, with a frantic look in her eyes. "Twilight I am not kidding, look I'll even take you there, were I saw it."

"*GROAN*  fine, lets go."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Twilight and Rainbow were both walking down the streets, normally there would be a bunch of ponies at this time, but for some reason no one was here. "Where  is everypony?"

Rainbow looked all around trying to find anypony that was still around. "Maybe there's a party?"

Twilight shook her head. " No Pinkie would have told us."

Suddenly Twilight and Rainbow heard a scream along with a very familiar voice. " YOU MONSTER'S LET MY SISTER GO RIGHT NOW!!!"

"THAT SOUNDED LIKE APPLEJACK"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the center of Ponyville stood Three hooded figures along with the cutie mark crusaders being held hostage, besides them were two strange creatures in which no pony has ever seen, one of them was a large mushroom with arms, the second was a pink floating jellyfish like creature.

"Amoonguss use Energy Ball!" The large mushroom like creature 'Amoonguss' shot a large green ball of energy at the crowd of ponies in front of them.

"HEY, JUST WHAT IN THE WORLD DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING." Coming at fast speeds was Rainbow dash and Twilight both of them glaring at the hooded figures.

" Silly question, were out of this world in deed."

" The answer may come when we feel the need."

The three figures removed their cloaks revealing two hornless minotaur like creatures wearing white clothes both with a bold R in it, and a cat like creature with a gold coin on his head.  

"  Bringing the blinding white light of evil into the future!

Thrusting the hammer of Chaos down onto the black darkness of harmony!

  Carving our names in the Rock of Eternity!

Destroyer of passion, Jessie!

Pure heart of darkness, I am James!

Infinite intelligence, Meowth!

And now gather, under the name of Team Rocket!

Wobbuffet! "

Twilight and Rainbow dash just stared at them. "Who?"

"TEAM ROCKET!!! YOU WELP!!"

''Don't tell me history was so quick to get rid of us."

Twilight took a step forward. "look we don't care what the name of your team is, what are doing are doing here in Ponyville and why do have those fillies hostage."

The cat like creature 'Meowth' then grinned. " Oh, do not worry about those fillies, we wont do anything to harm them, unless of course you are unwilling to cooperate."

Applejack looked uneasy. " well what is it you want? Money?"

The red haired girl 'Jessie' then laughed. "HAHAHA, no why would we want something so more valuable than money, what we want is the mares that took down Discord along with the elements."

The blue haired one 'James' looked at them darkly. " And if you don't bring them to us right now then we'll just level this place." James snapping his fingers caught the attention of the two creatures. " Amoonguss, Frillish, show them what your made of."

Ch.3- Prepare for Trouble! And Make it Double!

Equistria 1005 years ago

Everfree forest

 

There are many reasons why I hate mornings, and number one is the sun. Yes the sun that glowing ball up in the sky. The one that warms the earth makes things sunny on earth. I hate in the mornings then it tries to wake me up, by forcing it´s, light threw my eyelids. Yes, that is why I hate the sun, and it´s the reason I love winter, for sun is not there in the morning, only that nice white moon, that and the snow days.

For that is what it´s trying to do right now, making me wake up with it´s stupid light, but I cannot for that stupid sleep sand seals my eyes. You know that disgusting yellow stuff you sometime find then you wake up.

“Sarah I thought I told you, keep those damned curtains shut in the morning.” I groan loudly but I don’t get a reply. “Oh yeah you probably already left haven’t you.” I murmur to myself.

Oh, well since she´s gone I better get up, and eat something I think. While trying to stretch my body and the cracking my fingers, under my body fell something that is not my bed or any kind of bed I ever felt for that matter. I try move around to get a feel for that´s under me. It feels like dirt, but very hard and lose at the same time. With that, I force my eyes open to see where I am.

That I see around me is just dirt, dirt and trees. “Oh god dammit.” I whispered, “What happened last night.”

Okay think Tomas that happened last. I begin moaning while trying to piece my memories back together again. Okay we  went to a convention , it was beginning to become dark and we were making our way home, found a Meowth plushy in mail, and went to sleep.

Well I should get up now and see where I'm at. Then I noticed something I should have seen earlier. I was still wearing my James outfit I did not expect to see my costume on me since I'm pretty sure I took it of before going to sleep.

I look to my right and see my sister Sarah in her Jessie outfit, maybe she knows how we got here?

"Hey Sarah, wake up, wake up sis, I said wake up!"

"Huh? oh, Tom just 5 more minutes."

I begin trailing my hand down my face in sheer annoyance however, I am relived "Thank Christ your okay, you had me worried there for second. Now get up I think we have a minor problem on our hands."

"What do you mean? Thank Christ im okay? and what kind of proble-"

She immediately stop talking when she sees the forest around us. Her eyes are fully open as they continue to stare directly at the forest. Her mouth is slowly opening as she was about to say something, but she then began to scream.

"AAAHHHH TOMAS, WHY ARE WE IN THE FOREST, WHY ARE WE STILL IN OUR COUSTOMES, AND WHY CAN'T I TAKE THIS WIG OFF!!!!"

Suddenly I start hearing the bushes rustle. I turn towards my sister and tell her to keep quiet.

Out from the bushes came one of the biggest shocks of our lives, there stepping out of the bushes was a Meowth. The Meowth grinned when he saw us.

"JAMES! JESSIE! Your okay!"

I felt both of our jaws hit the floor, how in the world is there a Meowth talking to us!

Sarah was the first to recover. "You-you, you can TALK!"

Meowth looked at Sarah confused. "What do you mean Jess, I could always talk"

I quickly grabbed my sister's attention." Sarah I think we should just play along for now."

Sarah looked at me frantically. " What! are you crazy! That Meowth just talked!."

"I know this is a crazy plan but listen, that Meowth seems to think we're Jessie and James, maybe he can help us."

"Oh all right."

We both turned towards Meowth. "Umm, Meowth my memory is a bit hazy can you tell me what happened before we got here?" I asked with a grin.

Meowth then got a looked of understanding. "Oh, that makes sense, although im afraid I cant help you out there James."

I looked at the Meowth shocked. "What! why not!"

Meowth glared at me in response. "Because I'm lost here too!" Meowth then grinned. "Although you'll never be able to guess what I found."

We looked at the Meowth questionably. "What?"

"I saw a town up ahead come on lets go."

We both exchanged one last glance before going, hopefully we'll be able to get some answers.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Canterlot

30 minutes later

The once pround city of Canterlot was now a perfect picture of chaos, everwhere you looked there was something odd, like floating buildings, the checkerd board floor, the raining chocolate milk. Canterlot was up until a few minutes ago was the base of operations for the rebellion against discord. It was like that until Discord came in and wiped out the grauds protecting the citizens, and placing the ctitzens in cages. But in the middle of it all was two alicorns sisters beaten, barly any energy left to remain awake.

Standing in front of the two sisters was a being like no other it was made up of all sorts of animals and it called himself Discord. "Oh, isn't this just wonderful, just look at all the chaos!" The two alicorns just glared. "Oh, come on, this isn't really all that bad if you just gave it a try."

The smaller one, a blue alicorn who's mane sparkled like the moonlit sky spoke. "We would never join the likes of you Discord, so we suggest that thou release our subjects or else."

The chimera just laughed. "HAHAHA you are making threats to me? HAHAHAAHA oh, you must not see the position you are in." Discord walked towards them both. "Don't you get it do you? Your finished! It's over! Equistria is mine, you knew the type of trouble you were getting yourself into when you challenged me."

The chimera was interrupted when he heard laughter. "AHAHAHAHA"

Discord quickly looked behind him to see three strange creatures that he had never seen before, two hairless apes wearing matching uniforms and a cat standing on two legs.

"I think its you who should have prepared for trouble!"

" And make it double if you don't release these ponies now!"

" To protect the world from devastation!"

" To unite all peoples within our nation!"

"To denounce the evils of truth and love!"

" To extend our reach to the stars above!"  

"Jessie! "

"James!"

"Team Rocket, blast off at the speed of light!''

" Surrender now or prepare to fight!  

"Meowth! That's right! "

The ponies and Discord stared in shock and silence at the creatures challenging Discord, the silence however was interrupted by a random colt in the background. "THAT WAS SO COOL!"

" OOO~ That was so much fun, no wonder they do the motto every single episode" The red hair girl said excited.

"I agree we defiantly have to do that again." The blue haired one responded.

"Hey guy aren't we forgetting something." The cat said trying to grab their attention.

Discord was staring at the three creatures annoyed, he wasn't expecting more guest. "Who and what was that."

The blue haired one responded. "To answer your questions we are Team Rocket, and for what that was it was our motto a old one, that holds a lot segmental value in it. And if you don't release these ponies right now then im afraid things will get ugly."

The ponies were once again speechless no one ever disrespects Discord and gets away with it. "AHAHAHAAH, oh you guys are even more hilarious than these two ponies right behind me, what makes you think you will be able to beat me?"

The red haired girl scowled "Just make things easier on yourself and leave."

"Hmm, no." Discord grinned widely sensing these creatures had no magic, well except that cat but it was still nothing compared to him.

The two creatures smirked. "We were hoping you'd say that, so now you leave us no choice... Pokémon battle." The two creatures grabbed a red and white orb, then throwing it to the sky.

"ARBOK GO!"

"VICTREEBEL, WEEZING GO GET HIM!"

From the three balls emerged three even stranger beings, one was a giant purple cobra with a odd pattern in his chest, the second one was a floating two headed orb with a frown on his face and a skull mark on his chest, the last one looked like a giant carnivorous plant with two fangs and two eyes glaring at Discord. " Victreebel, Acid now!"

Victreebel from his mouth shot out a acid like substance straight at Discord, before the odd substance hit Discord, he teleported a few feet away.

Discord look at the spot were he was, seeing nothing but a small crater with the liquid still melting the floor. ' This isn't good, looks like I underestimated my opponents, while the two apes don't have any magic, I can sense a great deal of magic on the other three animals though, this might not be so easy as I thought before.'

"Weezing Sludge Bomb, Victreebel Razor Leaf."

"Arbok Poison Sting"

Discord flew up barely avoiding the attacks, unfortunately for him Weezing was quickly catching up to him. " Lets see how strong you really are." Discord threw a ball of chaos energy straight at the two on the ground.

"Victreebel, use vine whip and launch that ball right back at him." Victreebel obeying his master, launched the ball of pure chaos right back at Discord, hitting him straight at his chest.

All the ponies spectating fight watched in amazement as the creatures were actually able to hurt Discord.

"AARRGGHH"

"Weezing use Flamethrower." Weezing spat a wave of fire hitting discord on the back making him crash into a nearby building.

"Arbok go get your dinner" Arbok dug underground hoping to catch Discord off guard.

"Argh" Discord stood up from the spot he once stood, quickly regaining his senses, he looked around looking for any sign of the creatures.

"CHARBOK"

Discord looked behind him in semi fear, the cobra had his jaws wide open almost biting his head off.

"Ok this is starting to get annoying." Discord quickly grabbed the Arbok and tossed him to the other two creatures.

"I let this continue long enough, it's time to end this." Discord snapped his claws sending a wave of chaos magic straight at them and sending the three creatures back to there trainers.

Team Rocket looked at their defeated Pokémon shocked. "What just happened."

Both The ponies and the two alicorns lowered their heads having their hopes crushed, just as they were winning.

Discord appeared in front off the trio with a scowl on his face. "Are you finished?"

Jessie hands formed into a fist. "No...It's not over yet, we still have one more Pokémon left ."

The ponies looked at the odd trio with hope.

Luna turned towards her sister. "Celestia do you think that these three could really beat Discord."

Celestia looked at the three. "I don't know Luna, but those creatures they possessed I have never seen anything like them in my entire life, and the magic those creatures used was enough to give Discord a bit of trouble."

Jessie took a pokeball from her belt and stared at it. " I can almost taste victory." Jessie threw the ball in the air revealing a pink chameleon like creature.

"GO LICKITUNG"

Discord stared at the pink creature before laughing. "HAHAHAHA Your putting your faith in this thing, well this has been fun, but I think it's about time I end this." Discord prepared to snap his fingers.

*SSLLUURRPP*

That was until he was licked by the Lickitung. The ponies and the alicorns looked at shock at what had just happened.

Discord was currently on the floor not moving a single muscle. "Why can't I move?"

Meowth walked straight up to Discord sporting a smug smile. "That's because when Lickitung's tongue makes contact with his foe, the foe becomes instantly paralyzed."

Discords eyes became small little dots.

Jessie laughed. "AHAHAHAHA, What was that saying that you were going to be the one to beat us, now its time to finish this, Arbok Poison Sting, Lickitung Hyper Beam." Arbok appeared next to Lickitung preparing to attack, while Lickitung started gathering energy forming a small orange ball.

"Weezing Shadow Ball, Victreebel Solar Beam." The two Pokémon quickly regrouped with the others and started to gather energy.

"FIRE!"

All four of Team Rocket's Pokémon launched there attacks straight at the paralyzed form of Discord, creating a huge explosion and leaving the poor draconequus flying off, only hearing the screams getting quieter and quieter until it was completely silent.

Suddenly all the chaos caused by Discord in Canterlot started to disappear, the buildings returned to the ground, the weather back to normal,the floor back to normal, and finally the cages holding the citizens disappeared. All the ponies noticing the cages disappearing rushed to the heroes, the adults thanking them and praising them, the foals crowding around the Pokémon saying how cool they were for standing up for discord.

Celestia and Luna looked at the crowd from a distance, Luna turned towards Celestia worried. "Sister do you think we could trust these three, while they did drive away discord, we still don't know anything about them, for all we know they could have came here to take discords place instead."

Celestia wrapped a wing around her. "I understand why you are worried Luna, and honestly I don't know, but what I do know is that they were willing to help us, even if it meant putting their lives and the lives of those four creatures at risk, but before I can put my trust into these three I'm going to have to bring them in for questioning and hopefully find out more about them."

Ch.4-Ponyville Showdown

Ponyville

Present time

" Amoonguss, Frillish, show them what your made of." The two creatures started to gather energy forming a green and a black ball.

"Oh no, you don't." Rainbow Dash flew straight at the two creatures. What Rainbow didn't expect was what happened when she charged at the two Pokémon was a third one jumping in front of her. She stopped dead in her track when the momentum hit the Wobbuffet. As it's body went backwards without it's feet moving and the thing smile grew slightly as it ricocheted all the force back knocking the Pegasus out cold when she crashed to a nearby stall and finishing the blue thing's counter.

"Wobbuffet!" The blue thing smiled and did a small salute.

"RAINBOW DASH!."  The rest of the mane six rushed towards Rainbow, while the rest of the ponies stayed back in fear of invoking the creatures wraith.

Jessie laughed at Rainbow's attempt to stop them. "Hahaha is that the best you got? How pathetic."

Fluttershy glared at Jessie and the three creatures. "HOW DARE YOU!!!." Fluttershy flew straight to them. "You think that just because you have three strange and magical creatures working for you that it gives you the right to bully other ponies!? Well you know what, Rainbow Dash isn't the one who's pathetic, YOU ARE!!" Fluttershy's angry rant and glare made the three Pokémon quiver in fear, and even Meowth and James flinched a bit, but to Jessie it just amused her, this pony thinking she could scold her? Ha!

"Well of course it gives me the right, I mean after all I am Discord's top enforcer." Most of the ponies now started to quiver with fear at the mention of Discord. "Now why don't I teach you a little respect, Frillish." The pink jellyfish 'Frillish' perked up a bit at the mention of her name. " USE Shadow Ball!!!"

Frillish shot a black ball of energy straight at Fluttershy making all the other ponies look on at horror, until a gold beam of magic hit the shadow ball.

"LOOK IT'S THE PRINCESS, WE'RE SAVED!!!." All the ponies looked up at the sky to see Princess Celestia flying down at the center of the conflict, while all the ponies were cheering , Team Rocket had mixed expressions, Jessie scowled, Meowth looked a bit concern, James had a blank expression.

Celestia landed down at the middle of the conflict looking around her before turning her attention at Team Rocket with anger in her eyes. "Team Rocket! What do you think your are doing!"

"Again is the question so foolish indeed!

  The answer is to accomplish what the boss could not achieve!

Bringing the blinding, white light of evil into the future!

Thrusting the hammer of Chaos down - "

Meowth jumped up in front Jessie and James giving them both a fury swipes "Enough with the motto we already said it once today!"

"Enough! With this foolishness come back with me back to Canterlot! Or we will have no choice but to imprison you back to stone, I'm only giving this one warning." Celestia flared her wings similar to how a predator bird does to his prey.

Jessie was still holding her now scratch face, though her glare never leaving. " We aren't going anywhere." Jessie took out a small red and white ball. "GO! Woobat." From the ball  a Pokémon that looked like a blue ball of fur with a heart for a nose and a pair of bat wings appeared.

"Woobat!"

James threw a Pokeball in the air as well and yelled “Go, Yamask!” The Pokeball opened, revealing a strange Pokémon with a shadowy body, huge blood red eyes, thin arms held straight out to its sides, and a yellow mask.

"Ya-Yamask." The shadowy Pokémon looked around it's surroundings before settled its eyes on celestia and chirped a bit happily.

"Woobat use air slash."

"Yamask use Shadow ball." Both Pokémon used their respective attacks launching it at Celestia.

Princess Celestia didn't move, she just stayed still as the attacks came near ignoring the cries of the ponies telling her to move out of the way, until the move hit creating a huge could of smoke.

Twilight look at the black cloud with despair, fearing the worst. "PRINCESS CELESTIA!"

"VICTREE!!!"

Twilight's ears perked when she saw the cloud of smoke disappear, in its place she saw a large yellow carnivous looking plant, it had two brown leaves at it's sides, a blue colored mouth, and a large brown leaf at the top of it's head, several stars seem to surround its body before leaving. Twilight's eyes sparkled when she saw the carnivous plant. "Weepinbell.... you evolved.".

Princess Celestia step closer to Victreebel giving him a warn nuzzle. "Thank you old friend, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to call upon your services once more." Celestia turned towards the Team Rocket glaring angrily. "You have one last chance come with me back to Canterlot and I promise I wont turn you three into stone."

Team Rocket was in shock, how did Princess Celestia manage to get a hold of a Victreebel and a shiny one no less, but shock was quickly replaced with anger did she really think she could trick them with that!? " There is no way we're going anywhere with you, for all we know you could just be trying to trick us."

James spoke up. "Besides your outnumbered and outmatched, Yamask Shadow Ball , Amoongus Energy ball."

"Woobat Air Slash, Frillish Shadow Ball."

"And have a taste of my Fury Swipes!"

Celestia looked calmly at the five Pokémon before turning towards to the victreebel. "You can handle this by your self can you?" The Victreebel nodded. "Good, just try not to make a mess will you." The Victreebel nodded and turned towards the five Pokémon before using a Protect.

The crowd of ponies looked in awe and fear at the strange plant that could conjure up a shield so perfect that it made a royal guards shield look mediocre.

Jessie turned towards James. "Looks like it knows Protect."

James smirked. "No matter our Pokémon should be perfectly able to take him on."

Celestia looked at her Victreebel with pride, it had taken him months to learn that attack and now he perfected it. "Victreebel use Razor Leaf."

Victreebel sent a barrage of razor sharp leaves at all five of the Pokémon.

"Dodge it." Unfortunately for Team Rocket they were to late as the leaves had already hit its attended targets.

"Frillish Water Gun , Woobat use a Air Slash from behind." Frillish fired a large torrent of water in front the plant while Woobat blew a large air shaped disc behind the Victreebel.

"Victreebel jump out of the way." Victreebel quickly jumped out of the way making the Pokémon hit each other instead.

"Frillish, Woobat get up!" It was no use the two Pokémon were unconscious and unable to battle.

"Don't worry Jess, let me handle this Amoongus Take Down, Yamask Nightshade."

Celestia watch the battle calmly having no doubt that her friend could take them on, although Victreebel did feel more comfortable with instructions. "Use Vine Whip to wrap around Amoongus and throw him back to Yamask."

Victreebel obeying his mistress wrap his vine around Amoongus and threw him straight to Yamask knocking them both back to their trainers.

James looked at his Pokémon shocked "Our Pokémon defeated...."

Jessie looked on in rage. " Like that's going to stop us." Jessie took out another pokeball. "GO-."

"Wait Jess look." Meowth was pointing up to the sky, Jessie and James looked up to see at least 20 pegasus guards, 5 of them holding chariots filled with unicorn guards. "We got to go."

Jessie looked back at Princess Celestia and the other ponies. "You got lucky this time, but the next time we meet you wont be so lucky." Jessie took out her two pokeballs and returned the two fallen Pokémon back to their pokeballs, though still left out Wobbuffet for some reason.

James took out one ball and returned Amoongus, but left out Yamask. "Yamask can you still move?"

"Ya-mask." Yamask nodded.

James smiled. "Excellent, Yamask use Haze."

Yamask started to float again before turning towards the ponies and spat out a large amount of smoke blinding them and giving them enough time to escape.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1 hour later

Celestia looked all around Ponyville to the guards and some of the citizens working together on repairing all the damage the battle had cause. "*Sigh*, Sarah, Tomas, Meowth im sorry I wasn't fast enough to save Chime, but it wasn't our fault."  Celestia turned towards her Victreebel and saw it with Twilight, she smiled at that, 'I remember back when Twilight use to be a little filly the two were almost inseparable, how things have changed.'

"Princess Celestia."

Celestia saw Twilight and Victreebel running towards her.

"Princess who were those guys and why did they want the elements." Twilight looked at Celestia pleadingly.

*Sigh* Twilight I want you and your friends to come to Canterlot immediately, I will explain everything there." Celestia turned towards Victreebel. "Come along Victreebel, it is time for us to go back to Canterlot." Celestia took out a gold and white ball and opened it making Victreebel go back inside.

"TWILIGHT!"

Twilight turned around to see all of her friends running her way.

Rainbow Dash tackled Twilight to the floor and started to ask her with questions non stop "Twilight, what did the princess say!? Do we need the elements!? Is Princess Celestia going to give us our very own monsters to defend our selves!?"

Twilight pulled Rainbow off with her magic before speaking. "No Rainbow Dash I doubt Princess Celestia is going to give us our very own 'Monsters', but she did tell me to get everypony to get ready to leave for Canterlot."

Applejack stepped forward. "So looks like we got ourselves another adventure, huh."

Twilight nodded. "I wont force you girls to go you've seen what their capable of-"

Rarity stepped in, putting a hoof up. "Twilight were in this together, I mean after all we beat Discord, how bad can these guys be?"

All the rest off the girls voiced their opinions all agreeing with Rarity.

Twilight smiled. "Thank you girls, now lets go to Canterlot!"

"YEAH!!!"

Ch.5- The New Plan

Canterlot Castle

Present time

3 hours after the Ponyville attack

 

Princess Celestia was not happy, or at least she should be angry. Three of Equistria's most dangerous criminals had escaped their stone prison and are now loose on Equestria, but yet a part of her feels happy. 'They weren't always villains.'

"Sister.... Is everything all right?"

Celestia turned to see her younger sister Princess Luna, Luna was looking at her worried. "Thou have been staring at that scroll for a couple of minutes now, is everything all right?"

Celestia looked back at the scroll and notice that she had been looking at the same one for nearly ten minutes. She sighed, putting a hoof on her head feeling very tired. "I'm fine Luna, however something has recently come up."

Luna walked closer to Celestia. "Does it have to do with the reports we have been getting about a attack in Ponyville?"

Celestia inhaled and exhaled  sharply. " Luna, you remember our old friends? Tomas, Sarah, and Meowth? Right?"

Luna went stiff, before lowering her head down in shame. "How can we forget... It was our greatest failure." Luna sat down recounting all the good and the bad times they had spent. "If only..." Luna started shaking. "If only I hadn't fallen for his trap... Maybe Chime would still be here....Maybe we could have still been friends..."

Before Luna could continue Celestia wrapped a wing around her and pulled her into a hug. "Luna it wasn't your fault, he set it all up to make it look like we did it, it wasn't your fault."

The two stayed like that for a while before Luna pulled her self away. " We assume thou have a reason for mentioning them?"

Celestia nodded. "The ones who had attacked Ponyville were no other than Team Rocket."

Luna gasped. "They escaped?"

"Yes, and their still after revenge."

Luna stood up and started pacing. "But what are we going to do, will they listen to what we have to say? Would they still hate us?" Luna stopped and looked at Celestia with wide eyes. "Quickly we must assemble the guards, for they had not faced a foe quiet like them."

Celestia placed a hoof on her shoulder. "Luna calm down, I already prepared the guards in case of a attack, although I still need to check on the garden."  

Luna look at celestia aghast. "How can you be thinking of your garden in a time like this!?"

Celestia looked at her sister with a raised eyebrow. "Luna im talking about the sanctuary Starswirl had made for 'them', remember I showed you it on your first day back."

Luna looked away embarrassed. "Ah, yes, I forgot about that."

Celestia stood up from her throne. "Anyways we must prepare for Twilight and her friends arrival." Celestia trotted down the hallway, before looking back at Luna. "Goodnight little sister, take care."

Luna looked at the throne. "Goodnight sis, I hope you know what you are doing."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Canterlot Castle

1 day after Ponyville attack

Twilight and her friends trotted down the hallway of the castle with a royal guard escorting them to the throne room.

"So what do you think the princess is going to have us do to those guys anyways?"

"Properly use the Elements." Applejack answered dryly.

Pinkie Pie gasped loudly. "What if she gives us a Victreebel just like her's, or maybe she will summon a 10 year old boy and his pet yellow rat to shoot lighting bolts at them that will make them say 'LOOKS LIKE TEAM ROCKET'S BLASTING OF AGAIN!!!' while they disappear in the sky."

Everyone in the room stared at Pinkie in confusion, even the royal guard, who were trained to keep a stone face were baffled.

Twilight however was the first to recover. "Pinkie I don't think the princess is going to give us a Victreebel, she could if she wanted, but one just like her's is extremely rare due to it being a different color than the others of his kind. And I don't know where you got the other one at."

The rest of the trip was left in silence with a occasional conversation every now and then.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Outside Canterlot Castle

"Targets sighted."

"So how are we going about it this time?"

"Oh don't worry, I have a plan ."

" You always have the perfect plan don't cha."

Outside of Canterlot on top of the mountain were two figures looking through a pair of binoculars, plotting their newest scheme to free Discord and get revenge on the royal sisters.

The red haired one turned towards the large cat. "Hey, where's Tomas anyways?"

"Heck if I know Jess."

Sarah crouched down and patted Meowth on the head. "Hey now, you know you could call us by our real names when we're not in public right." Sarah smirked with a mischievous glint in her eyes. "I mean you used to love it when me and Starswirl called you our little 'Clever Clover'."  

Meowth blushed furiously at the memory of his old nickname. "He-Hey!"

Sarah laughed. "Calm down Meowth, im just teasing."

"Wobbuffet!"

The two turned around and saw Wobbuffet dragging a glum looking Tomas. "Waba."

Sarahbent down and looked at James. "Hey? Tomas you all right?"

Tomas (Or James if you prefer.) looked at Jessie still looking a bit glum. "Im sorry to make you worry Sarah, it just when I saw Princess Celestia using that Victreebel, it reminded me of the old days you know."

Sarah (Jessie if you prefer) Looked a little glum. "Ya I know... But things will get better you wait!" Sarah hugged her little brother.

Meowth looked the other way. "Still can't believe that Celestia got a hold of a Pokémon."

Sarah raised an eyebrow. "I told you, it was probably the result of Starswirl's repopulation spell, and besides I thought you were over it."

Meowth jumped up and pointed a paw at Sarah. "I am over it and besides none of this would've happen, if Tomas here decided to let Starswirl clone his Victreebel."

Tomas got up, and glared at Meowth, "Hey! You were the one who volunteered Victreebel and Likitung in the first place!"

Sarah pulled Meowth away before they could start a fight while Wobbuffet did the same for Tomas. "Hey know calm down lets just go over the plan so we can go."

Meowth started thinking a bit before he thought of a brilliant plan that will surly succeed. "You guys just wanna dig a hole and hope they fall through it?"

Tomas stood up and dusted himself before grinning. "Sure I can dig that."

Sarah groaned all ready having a feeling on how this might go out. "Great lets go!"

Wobbuffet looked at his comrades running towards the castle already having a feeling on how this might play out. "Wobbaffet."

Ch.6- Canterlot Hidden Garden

Canterlot Castle

1 day after Ponyville attack

The throne room was quite active, as several guards were stationed at full alert due to the new threat. Luna stood tall with her sister as they waited for Twilight and her friends. The doors swung open and a group of six mares walked along the red carpet leading to the throne room.

The group finally stopped just in front of the steps. "I thank you for coming on such short notice, im afraid that Equestria is in danger and it needs your help."

Rainbow Dash flew up and spoke confidently. "Just tell us what to do, and we'll have it done 10 seconds flat." Twilight used her magic to pull Rainbow back to the group.

Luna cleared her throat. "We do not think it would be wise for thou to underestimate them, after all thou have only merely had a taste of what they are capable of."

Celestia nodded. "Indeed those four creatures my Victreebel had fought were not even close to be their strongest Pokémon, with the exception of Amoongus." The group started to worry.

Twilight stepped forward nervously. "um, Princess is there any information you can give us of them."

Celestia smiled. "Of course Twilight no need to be nervous." Celestia cleared her throat for what will be no doubt a long talk.  " The three figures who attack Ponyville yesterday are James, Jessie, and Meowth or better known as Team Rocket."

"Jessie and James both control a large number of strange and magical creatures known as Pokémon, last we counted they control 18." Luna added.

"19, if you count Meowth, and 20 if you count Wobbuffet."

"Yes well, these Pokémon are often use by Team Rocket for battling, although they are used for battling Team Rocket's Pokémon seem to share a strong bond with their trainers, back then Starswirl would often spend his time researching the Pokémon and would put all his findings in this book." Luna levitated a large brown book and handed it to Twilight, who had to suppress a large squeal at the sight of the book. " But even with all of the information the book possess, we still don't know everything about the Pokémon, there are still many mysteries surrounding the Pokémon ."

Applejack stepped forward, a look of concern on her face. "The Pokémon, they wont kill us will they?"

Celestia shook her head easing the ponies fear. "No, even Team Rocket wouldn't dare kill anypony."

"Except for us." Luna whispered.

"However even though the Pokémon wont kill a pony, they are still very dangerous."

"How dangerous are they?" Fluttershy nervously added.

"Dangerous enough to defeat a Manticore by itself." All of the mares gasped, a few of them exchange nervous looks.

Suddenly a the doors slammed open, revealing a very beat up guard, his armor was a different color than the rest, it was a dark green, with a few gold streaks. "Your highness, your private garden has been attacked....The inhabitants captured....All of the guards beaten....We couldn't stop them." The guard collapsed barely breathing.

Celestia's eyes widen.

"Tia that's were all of the Pokémon are hidden."

In a bright flash of light everyone in the room had disappeared.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Canterlot Castle

The Hidden Garden

Everypony in Canterlot had always been aware of a hidden garden in Canterlot Castle, the only ponies allowed there are the princesses, and a few selected others, the guards that had been stationed there were sworn to secrecy, never to be allowed to speak of anything they see there, for if one were to tell somepony what they saw, they and whoever else they told will be sent to the dungeons for treason. Many had speculated that the gardens hide a very powerful artifact full of unimaginable power the same power that made Celestia and Luna into alicorns, a few even believe that the gardens hide a foe so powerful that they could not risk having it seen in public, and even a few crackpot conspiracy theorist believe that the gardens hold the true king and queen of Equestria as prisoners.

However as grand as the rumors are none of them are true. But instead the gardens is not a prison for what ever lies behind there, but instead is a sanctuary built by the great Starswirl the bearded for the creatures that live behind the walls. These creatures are ones that no pony has ever seen for they hold great power that even dwarfs most unicorns magic's, they come as two separate kind, the Flycatchers Pokémon which come as three subspecies Victreebel, Weepinbel, and the Bellsprouts, and the pink chameleon like Pokémon which come as two different species Lickitungs and Lickilickys. Every day Celestia comes to the garden to check on the creatures that Starswirl had spend so much time studying, every fifty years however Celestia comes down to the gardens in hope of finding a new Pokémon that will become her partner, personal guard, as well as a friend once her old Pokémon had become too old to do anything. Recently when Princess Luna had returned Celestia had introduced her to the gardens and all of its inhabitants, not only that, but it was on that day where Princess Luna had found a new friend as well as a personal guard.

Now that very garden has been invaded and all of the Pokémon living there captured and all put on one giant cage, and the guards unconscious and tied up to a tree. The ones behind it all were no other than Team Rocket.

Jessie stared at the cage dumbfounded. "I cant believe Celestia has this many Pokémon."

Meowth stood right next to her."Ya, how many Pokémon does a princess need? Is she trying to create a Pokémon army or something?"

"Who cares about that! Look at all the cute Weepinbels! And Victreebels!" James stood in front of the cage gushing over all the plant type Pokémon. "You know what im going to catch one."

But before James could take out a pokeball, a blinding white light appeared, revealing both Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, several guards, and the six mares from Ponyville.

Rainbow dash was the first to recover the mass transportation. "Hey, look! Its Team Missile!"

"IT'S TEAM ROCKET YOU FEATHER BRAIN!!!"  

    Celestia looked all around the garden with wide eyes before they finally settled at the cage full of Pokémon. "Team Rocket you will release those Pokémon know! Or else I'll make sure you will pay for the trouble you have caused."

Both Jessie and James stiffened. "Pay for the trouble you say...."

Luna groaned and facehoofing while glaring at her sister. "Great thanks a lot Tia."

Celestia flinch under Luna's glare "Uhhh, Opps."

"Prepare for trouble from beyond the skies!

From beyond the stars, a nasty surprise!

An evil as old as the galaxy...

sent here to fulfill our destiny!

Plus, there's me!

To denounce the evils of truth and love!

To extend our reach to the stars above!

Jessie!

And James!

: And Meowth are the names!

Anywhere there's peace in the universe...

Team Rocket...

...Will be there...

To make everything worse!

Wobbuffet!

Mime Mime! "

At the sight of the baby mime Pokémon, Fluttershy quickly rushed over it giving him a tight hug. "Awww, Your so adorable!"

James bent down having to stifle a chuckle as he saw his Mime Jr. trying to pry the mare of him. "He is quite cute, isn't he."

Fluttershy meet James gaze, and surprisingly didn't shy away. "Oh yes, I can tell by how soft his coat is, you must take good care of him don't you."

James scratch the back of his head not used to being praised. "Oh well I do try my best at trying to take care of all my Pokémon."

"And your doing a very good job at it to."

"Oh why thank you, but im sure anyone could do it just as good."

"Oh no, not many ponies take care of their pets as well, and I see he has been well fed."

"Thank you, but I really don't see them as pets, I tend to care for them as if they were family."

"You know by how well he looks, I really think it shows."

"Really? You think so?"

"Oh I do."

Before Fluttershy and James can continue their conversation, a loud cough erupted from both sides.

James was the first to react. "Oh! Well it seems that I have forgotten what we were doing in the first place, miss..."

Fluttershy blushed at embarrassment for forgetting to give the man her name. "Oh its Fluttershy."

"Fluttershy, huh, well my name is James, we simply must have this conversation another time."

"Oh yes, it was quiet delightful."

"Hmm, say we could continue later this week say Saturday?"

"Oh yes of course, I live in the cottage near the Everfree, just come by whenever you like."

"I will, well I'll be seeing you later."

The two walked back to their respective parties, not noticing the looks they've been receiving.

Meowth jumped up to Jessie's shoulder. "Looks like jimmy finally snagged one, and a looker too." Meowth winked at James, who was oblivious to what he was implying.

A loud cough came from Celestia trying to gain everyone's attention. "So can you let the Pokémon go?"

Jessie who had been trying to keep herself calm the whole time yelled. "NO! You just cant have them back." Jessie threw a pokeball in the air. "GO! Seviper." A large black snake with several yellow patterns appeared from the ball.

"SEVIPER!!!"

"*Sigh* Should of known, GRUADS CAPTURE THEM!!!"

In a few seconds all the guards in the area charged towards Team Rocket, only for all of them to fall in a hole.

Meowth grinned "Hey looks like those hours wasted on digging a hole wasn't a total waste after all."

Wobbuffet nodded. "Wobbuffet

Twilight looked at the book Luna had given her, flipping through the pages until she finally found a page that had picture of Seviper.

'Seviper

The Poison Fang Pokémon

Poison Elemental

               Bio:

Seviper is a serpentine Pokémon that is usually seen scrunched up like an accordion. It is mostly black, but has several markings on its body. It has yellow hexagon markings that run from its head to its tail, small yellow bumps where it touches the ground, and various purple scar-like marks. It has elongated red fangs that protrude from its upper jaw and fierce red eyes. Its tail is partially red and has a blade-like shape. Seviper sharpens its tail on rocks, and can use it for its signature move, Poison Tail. Seviper wraps around its opponents to make them unable to move. Its tail and fangs are venomous, and are used for striking and poisoning prey or enemies. It has been bitter enemies with the Zangoes when we first encountered it.

Seviper is shown to have a passion for battling. It was also proven to be intelligent, outsmarting us and not falling for our traps. It was also shown to be a mean and nasty Pokémon, constantly bulling smaller animals.

~Starswirl'  

Twilight stared at the book wide eyes before slowly looking up at the Seviper, who was grinning at her with its red eyes. "EEP."

Ch.7- The Chaotic Brawl

Canterlot Castle

Hidden Garden

Both sides glared at each other daring the other one to make the first move. Until Jessie finally decides to be the one who starts things of.

"Seviper! Blind them with Haze!."

A stream of smoke emerges from the Seviper's mouth, blinding all the ponies.

Jessie turned to the others. "Quickly lets get out of here." All six of them started to slowly to walk backwards hopping to escape.

"Oh! No you don't."

A blue blur suddenly tackled the Seviper, having him crash towards the rest of his team mates.

Rainbow Dash flew up in front of the downed team. "That was for what your blue blob did to me in Ponyville."

Jessie scowled. "How dare you! NO ONE! Insult's Wobbuffet and get's away with it." Jessie glared at the pegasus. "Seviper teach this filly a lesson."

Seviper's tail glowed purple as it lashed out at the blue pegasus, Rainbow tried to dodge, but the attack hit her anyways launching her to a nearby tree.  

"RAINBOW DASH"

James stood up and grabbed a pokeball. "Oh no you don't, GO! CACNEA!."

A small cactus like creature wearing a small crown appeared from the pokeball. "CACNEA!" A soon as Cacnea was released it turned around and hugged James, while hurting him at the same time.

Twilight, seeing the Pokémon, started flipping the pages of her new book, until she saw a page with Cacnea's picture.

'Cacnea

The Cactus Pokémon  

Grass Elemental

Bio:

Cacnea is a green, bipedal Pokémon with a round body and cactus-like striations. It has a dark green rhombus shape above its face, and six dark green rhombus shapes that ring around its waist. It has dark circles around its eyes, and its mouth composed of several similar circles. It has two dark green spikes on each side of its head, along with a yellow flower bud, that also happens to look like a crown, on top of its head. Its two club-like arms that are ringed with dark green spikes, and its two stubby, it's legs are dark green.

Cacnea uses its thorny arms like hammers to attack its opponents. The thorns allow it to use its former signature move, Needle Arm. It is able to live in deserts for 30 days without any water, due to its body being able to store moisture. The beauty of its yellow flower depends on the harness of its environment. This flower releases a strong aroma to attract prey. When prey approaches, Cacnea shoots sharp thorns to bring it down.

Cacnea seems to have mark its territory at the badlands, showing how powerful of a predator it is. When we had first countered it, it was very aggressive, and protective of it's territory, it wasn't until James had befriended it, it became more docile and allowed me to properly study, it seems to show James a lot of painful affection.

~Starswirl'

Twilight looked up from the book confused, he didn't seem like a dangerous predator, but looks can be deceiving.

Princess Luna walked up in front of Twilight. "Team Rocket, we will give thou one chance, come with us peacefully, or we will force thou to come."

James turned to Luna and shook with rage when he saw her. "You dare show your face! After what you did! Well I'll tell you this we not going anywhere without a fight!" James gently pushed off Cacnea. "Cacnea Pin Missile!"

Cacnea arm spikes glowed white before sending a barrage of needles straight the ponies.

"VICTREEBEL PROTECT!" The shiny Victreebel quickly hopped over in front of the needles before creating a barrier.

Meowth shook his head. "As if we didn't predict that." Meowth turned towards Jessie and nodded.

Celestia looked at her fellow Pokemon and saw something coming for him.

"Look out!" yelled Celestia, but it was too late, as a what was apparently a giant hand, grabbed Vitreebel before going up to a balloon in the air.

"Victreebel! Somepony has to help him!" said Twilight. Celestia got a good look at the balloon Victreebel was trapped in and instantly recognized it.

"Don't think you won just yet Team Rocket! you're not getting away with my friend!" said Rainbow Dash as she flew to the Meowth shaped balloon.

"Why don't you just stay down! Seviper, knock her out with Poison Tail!" said Jessie as the snake Pokémon jumped high in the air,  it's sword like tail glowing, sending Rainbow back to the ground.

"How dare thee! Attacking the very ponies you swore to protect!" said Luna as she fired a magical beam at the balloon.

"Too slow! Yamask, use Shadow Ball!" yelled James as the ghost Pokémon appeared from it's Poke Ball and met Luna's attack with it's own. The lunar alicorn was gaining the advantage easily until Seviper crash it's tail onto her back, allowing the Shadow Ball to hit Luna and send her crashing to the ground.

"Princess Luna!" said a worried Twilight as she tried to rush to Luna' side, but was immediately blocked by a burst of light and from it, a bat like Pokémon was in front of her.

"Woobat, use Air Slash!" commanded Jessie. Woobat prepared the attack, but was stopped by an magic blast by Princess Celestia.

Both Celestia and Twilight went up to Luna "Oh no, Seviper's attack poisoned her. She's very weak." said Celestia, only to suddenly get blasted with an Energy Ball attack from a mushroom like Pokémon.

Celestia turned toward the source of the attack and saw James walking closer to them with a golden dagger wrapped around a blue ribbon with the end of it being a slight red. "After I take Luna out, we'll be more then happy to take you to the boss. Amoonguss, use Sludge Bomb! And Cacnea use Pin Missile!" said James as Cancea and Amoonguss fired their attacks, with Celesta and Twilight countering with a magical beam, causing an explosion.

"Leave my friends alone!" came the sudden voice of Rainbow Dash, who came in and used the explosion to hide her attack and knocked down James' Pokémon in a blink of an eye and glared at Team Rocket, with Jessie holding another Poke Ball.

"Don't get in our way! Dustox, use Psybeam!"yelled Jessie as the bug Pokémon came out and tried to hit the rainbow maned pegasus with a beam of colors. Dash easily dodged it and regrouped with the others.

"Just how many monsters do these guys have!?" asked Dash

Celestia turned towards Rainbow Dash. "16? Maybe 20? It's been a while since a last saw any of them."

"Yes, and now will be the day I finally have my revenge!." said James as he held up what looked like a golden Poke Ball. Celestia was confused for a bit until she remembered a event that happened when they had gone to Minos for a Vacation.

"Now then, let's go!" said James as he threw the gold Poke Ball and from it came a giant Pokémon, almost as big as a grown dragon, with pale yellow and sky blue scales. Celestia and the others looked at this Pokémon in fear.

"Now, today, Team Rocket finally has their revenge!  Now then Gyarados, use Hyper Beam!" yelled James as his Gyarados fired a powerful golden beam at the others, who were too scared to do anything

"AHHHHH!!!" yelled Twilight she waited for the attack to hit...

...but it never did.

Ch.8- The Chaotic Brawl (part 2, Robocord appears)

Canterlot Castle

Hidden Garden

"Huh?" asked a confused Twilight. She looked and was surprised beyond belief when she saw a unicorn guard wearing a purple colored suit of armor that had put up a purple shield, which was blocking James' Gyarados' Hyper Beam attack. The move ended and soon, everyone had a clearer view of who had block that attack. It was a white unicorn who had a blue mane with a lighter shade of blue streaks in his mane.

"Shinning?!" asked a surprised Twilight. The stallion looked back at Twilight and winked before facing Team Rocket.

"You know you guys are starting to get on my nerves. So how about you let go of Victreebel and come with us peacefully or else." said Shinning, who sounded very calm, yet somehow everyone could sense the anger he had.

"We're not afraid of you! Frillish, come out and use water gun!" yelled Jessie as the jellyfish like Pokémon came out and blasted a stream of water at Shinning, who countered with a strong blast of magic. The attacks somehow were at equal power until Applejack suddenly came up and used her hat to blind Frillish, allowing Shinning to overpower the water gun and make a direct hit.

"Alright, ya better let mah friend go or else!" yelled Applejack. Meowth just laughed at this though as he pulled out some sort of controller.

"Yeah right, these Pokémon are going to be our present to the boss and our new army,  Activate, The Robocord!" yelled Meowth as he pressed a button and suddenly, the balloon started to transform. The balloon disappeared and the basket it was carrying began to morph into a familiar looking robot, its body consist of many different animal parts, on the left side was a robotic lion paw and a dragon leg, on the right side was a robotic eagle talon and a goats leg, a metal bat wing and a bird wing on the back, its head had a deer antler and a goat horn, on the body there was a bold red 'R'. Where the eyes would be was a control room behind a glass wall and Team Rocket could be seen in it with the Pokémon, being put in some sort of containment chamber, the machine let out a mechanical roar.

"Eh, what do you think of our machine? We made it have the same power either one of your princesses have, but powered by the chaos magic in our gems." said Jessie, who sounded very proud and took out  a necklace that had a small red gem, James and Meowth did the same only theirs being a different color, blue and gold.

"You're going down!" yelled Rainbow Dash as she charged at the Robocord, but James' Gyarados got in her way. James then pulled out another Poke Ball as the glass window opened up.

"Time for you to get out of the way! Come on out Carnivine!" yelled James, only for Carnivine to suddenly bite his head the moment it came out of it's Poke Ball.

"How many times must you do this!?" yelled a annoyed James, causing everyone else to sweat drop and for Twilight to ask her mentor something.

"Has that thing done that to him before?" asked Twilight. Celestia just sighed.

"Several times. I lost count sometime after it reached 80." said Celestia before she suddenly fired an beam of magic at the machine, but was stopped by Gyarados. James had finally gotten Carnivine off him at this point.

"Carnivine, use bullet seed, Yamask, use Shadow Ball, Cacnea., use pin missile, Amoonguss, use energy ball, and Gyarados, use Hydro Pump!" yelled James.

"My turn now! Seviper, use Flamethrower, Dusktox, use psybeam! Woobat, use Air Slash, and Frillish, use shadow ball!" yelled Jessie. All 9 Team Rocket Pokemon fired their attacks as Meowth had the Robocord fire another beam, Twilight immediately tried to counter with her own beam combined with both Celestia's and Shinning's. Dash went back and scooped up Appejack, with the two going for a combo attack.

"YEEHAW! Take this!" yelled Applejack as her and Dash sped towards Team Rocket, but Jessie just smiled as she called Wobbuffet over.

"I still have one Pokemon in the field. Go, Wobbuffet! Use Counter!" said Jessie as the blue Pokemon came out and became enveloped in an orange aura, which blocked AJ and Dash's combo move and dealt twice as much damage they would have dealt at them, causing them to fly back and crash into the others, allowing Team Rocket's combo move to hit them and send all of them flying into the castle walls.

"We did it!" Jessie said with happy giggle. But her celebration was cut short when a bolt of thunder hit Gyarados, causing it to fall down to the ground out cold. Team Rocket was shocked by this and turned to the source of the move, which revealed a group of armored pegasi carrying a large storm cloud, now quickly flying away when they notice Jessie glaring at them.

"Where do you think you're going!? Seviper, use Poison Fang!" commanded Jessie, but Seviper suddenly got blasted by a magic beam. The guards looked to their side and saw Rarity and Pinkie helping Luna back up and smoke was seen coming from Luna's horn.

"Go, see if our friends are alright darlings. We'll hold them off." said Rarity as she picked up a large looking boulder with her magic and launched a at the machine while Pinkie fired at it with her party cannon. Luna just nodded at the guards and charged into battle, despite being weakened from the poison. The guards nodded and went to Applejacks and Rainbow Dashes unconscious  forms.

"Was that the best you 3 could do!?" asked Jessie before she laughed. The others tried to get themselves ready, but pain shot through their bodies, causing her to flinch in pain.

"You honestly think you can beat us in your condition? Don't make us laugh cause it's time to finish this!" yelled Meowth as he flipped some sort of switch. Suddenly, the machine jumped up into the sky and locked in on the others.

"Chaos Storm, fire!" yelled Meowth as the robot fired several small balls of electrity, which was aimed at the others. Shinning tried to put up a shield, but was unable to as pain suddenly shot through it's head.

"Oh no!" said Shinning right before everyone was hit with balls, causing them to go flying and hit the ground out cold, except for Celestia, who was barely holding onto her consciousness. Team Rocket laughed at this.

"To think this machine would be the one we used to finally destroy you and your sister." said Jessie. Celestia, not wanting it to end like this, struggled to get back up.

"Fighting to the end huh? Not going to help, but I commend you for that Princess. You'll be a very good trophy for the boss!" said Meowth as he fired a black rainbow beam at Celestia, who suddenly found second whim and dodge it, Celestia looked behind her and gasped as she saw the patch of grass she was standing on turned to stone, Celestia then fired an beam of magic at the robot, knocking it off balance. Celestia jumped with as much strength she could muster up and knocked it down. The crash of the robot falling down was enough for the glass window to break.

"AH! I though you said the glass was unbreakable!" said Jessie. Celestia then fired a magic beam at the chamber holding the Pokémon and destroyed it, freeing all the Pokémon that were captured. But suddenly, Meowth hit Celestia from behind with a Fury Swipes, causing her to fall down to using her front legs.

"Well Princess, we win." said Meowth. Celestia glared at Team Rocket, but suddenly saw something appear behind Meowth. Team Rocket soon noticed it too and turned to see what was there. Standing there was none other then Twilight herself, who looked very angry and was charging up a powerful spell.

"Quick, do it now! Don't worry about me, just make sure the others are safe!" Celestia yelled, Twilight thought she was crazy, but the look in her eyes made her know she was serious. Just as she fired the spell, Celestia put up a last minute shield, making the blast only affect team rocket.

"Looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again!" yelled Team Rocket as the disappeared into the sky with a twinkle being sent flying. Twilight immediately rushed towards the remains of the machine, despite not being able to walk, and began trying to find Celestia, she was severely injured and was out cold.

"Quickly take her to the hospital!" Twilight yelled and at a few nearby guards.

Canterlot Statue Gardens

In the statue gardens a very familiar looking statue glowed. 'hmp, looks like team rocket failed, oh well such a shame that mech of theirs was really quite the looker.'

Ch.9- The Blast off Aftermath

Everfree Forest

(Tomas point of view)

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!"

I groaned, we had only just been released a few days and we already got blasted of, no matter how many times we blast of I could never get used to it, the pain, the crash, and the yelling between my sister and Meowth, then again we only ever blasted of four times.

"Mime~a~mime~"

I look right behind me and saw a good portion of my team injured, or unconscious, the only ones who are okay enough to walk are Carnivine, Mime Jr., and Yamask. It always hurts me when I see my team in such a condition.  

I got out Gyardos, Cacnea, and Amoongus's pokeballs. "Get some rest you guys." A beam of red energy shoot towards them as they retreated back to their balls. I looked back the other three. "You guys okay?" The other three nodded, I took out their pokeballs, but they refused to go inside. "*Sigh*" I looked around for any sign of my sister or Meowth. "Great, looks like we've gotten separated again." Luckily we were trained for these type of situations, the two of us will send out a Pokémon that can fly and sent it out to scout the area until we find each other.

"Yamask." The small ghost floated a bit closer when it heard it's name. "Go scout the area, come back to me when you find something." The small ghost nodded and flew up to search the area.

"Carnivine, Mime Jr. lets go." Mime Jr. ran up and jumped up my arms, Carnivine just walked up to me looking a bit down. "Hey Carnivine, its okay we'll get them next time." Carnivine gave a weak smile as it jumped up and started to chomp on my head (Not enough to make it hurt though.) "Hehe, alright let's go!"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Canterlot Castle

The first thing Celestia heard as the world slowly returned to her was a faint beeping. She also heard some snoring. As soon as she got her vision back, the first thing she saw was Luna sleeping right next to the bed.

"Lu-Luna?" asked Celestia in a weak voice. Luna's head immediately shot up at the sound of Celestia's voice. Luna then suddenly hugged her almost immediately with tears in her eyes.

"Tia your okay!" Luna said, almost nearly shouting.

"Luna...Air...I need...Air" asked Celestia. Luna dropped Celestia and looked away sheepishly.

"Princess?"

Celestia looked up and gasp, for some reason, Pinkie and Fluttershy looked as fine as ever while Twilight had a bandage around her forehead and horn, Dash's wing was completely wrapped up, Applejack looked fine despite the bruises, Rarity had her entire right rear leg wrapped up

"Guess Team Rocket did a number on all of us. I'm sorry for all this." said Celestia. However, it was Rainbow Dash who spoke up first.

"Hey, its all right princess! My wing maybe broken, but I'll make sure I get back into the air in no time!" said Dash. The others gave Celestia a confident nod, which seemed to raise her confidence as she gave them a smile.

"Yeah...next time, Team Rocket better watch out. Because next time, I'm going to make them wish that they never messed with us!" said Rainbow as she raised her arm high into the air, with everyone doing the same.

Celestia smiled, but the smile quickly change to a frown.

"Princess?"

Celestia looked up and saw her student looking at her concerned. "*Sigh* Twilight there is something I have to tell you about Team Rocket."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everfree Forest

"*Growl*"

"Mime~a~mime."

  Tomas stared at the creature in front of him in fear, the creature resembles that of a crocodile, but its hide is covered in rocks and rock spires. "Don't worry Mime Jr. I'm sure your big brother Carnivine can handle it."

Carnivine looked back in shock. "CARNIVINE!!!"

Tomas looked at Carnivine clearly panicking. "What!? You don't expect me to fight it do you!?"

Carnivine glared at Tomas "Car! Car! Carnivine!"

Tomas face palmed. "Look, would it make you feel better if I got out some help." Carnivine nodded. "*Groan* Fine." I looked through my pockets, looking for a Pokémon that hasn't already fainted from our last battle, so far only 2 come to mind. "Alright Go! Inkay!"

In a burst of light, came out a small squid like creature. "Inkay!" It looked around it's new surroundings, until its eyes settled at the large Cragadile. "Inkay..." It's eyes widened as it let out a little ink.

"Hey! Inkay, do mind helping Carnivine out fighting the Cragadile."

Inkay turned around shocked. "Inkay!?" The Inkay shook his head 'no', while saying it's name over and over.

"Great! Since I can't understand you, I'm going to assume that's a yes!"

Inkay fumed, but it clearly understood it didn't have a choice in the matter. "Inkay."

The Inkay flew closer to Carnivine who was giving her a look of pity."[Hey, sorry for dragging you into this mess, I didn't want to handle this thing myself.]"

Inkay turned back towards Tomas leaving him one last glare."[*Sigh* I know, just wish he didn't have to a dick about it, Gryados is much more stronger than the both of us.]"

The Cragadile growled. "[Are you two done talking yet, I'd like to have my dinner now!]"

The two Pokémon sighed in defeat, and got ready.

"Inkay Psybeam, Carnivine Bullet Seed." Both Pokémon sent out their respective attacks, the Cragadile, not expecting this sort of attacks flinch in surprise.

"Inkay, Tackle!" The Inkay turned upside down and launched himself towards the large animal, knocking him of balance.

"Carnivine, use Vine Whip." Carnivine jumped high in the air, and used his vines to wrap around the Cragadile's body. "Now toss him back to where he came from." Carnivine then using all of his power toss the Cragadile back a few feet.

Both Carnivine and Inkay landed near him. "[Heh, give up?]"

The Cragadile sensing that he was out matched tried to make a run for it.

"[Oh no you don't!" Inkay turned upside down charging a powerful attack. "[This is for interrupting my nap!]" Inkay launched the attack straight at him, causing him to fly of to the distance.

"[Glad that's over.]"

Tomas walked up to the two. "Great job you guys, well now that that's over let's~a~go!"

Carnivine looked up towards Inkay. "[How long do you think he can survive without us.]"

Inkay shrugged. "[I give it around two days, before something eats him.]"

Carnivine nodded agreeing with Inkay, as the two started following Tomas deeper into the forest, unaware of a shadowy ball watching them.

"Tomas? You're free?" The ball moved closer to them, but far enough to not be seen. "OH! it is you! My old friend free once more, hahaha." The ball floated out of the shadows, revealing a purple orb with two large eyes, purple smoke all around his body. "Wait for me old chum!"

Interlude #1- Legend of Cacnea

Equestria Badlands

1000 years ago

(Cacnea's POV)

' From the moment of my inception to the Badlands of the land known as Equestria I knew I was destined for greatness.... The honor of being chosen along with a few others to come to this new world by the gods that preside in this realm, this was a test, for that I am certain. And now through trail and error I had became the strongest predator of the badlands, my power was only rivaled by the dragons of this land and the two Pokémon I know as my friend and my enemy, now I had a reasonability to uphold, one greater than I could have possibly imagined...FOR I AM.... CACNEA! THE KING OF THE BADLANDS!'

T'was a bright and sunny afternoon in the Badlands, whenever I walk by, some of the native creatures of this land had bowed to me in respect. I was making my way through the Badlands towards the Everfree forest to surprise an old friend who I hadn't seen in quiet a while... until!

"WHAT HO!?" A shadow ball had landed right in front of me almost hitting me, this caused me to shake in rage! What kind of coward initiates a fight like this! "WHO DARES!?"

It was all quiet until the sound of laughter filled the area, looked to the source of the laughter and saw the very person I was going to meet. " I thought since this was a special occasion, that I should surprise you, by attacking you and standing on this cliff to which I can look down upon you.... Cacnea lord of the fools! HAHAHA."

I looked at him shocked and confused. "Can this be!? My reformed ally and my closest friend, the Everfree King, laughing manically and looking down upon me, just like the old villain he had once been? What has happened to you, my sad ghoulish friend" The Everfree King was a powerful Pokémon, he was a species known as Treveant, his power was only rivaled by the hydras and dragons that live in his land.  

The Everfree King jumped from his spot and tried to hit me with one of his signature moves. I luckily was fast enough to dodge this attack. "HORRORS!!"

Treveant looked at me grinning madly. "I am a phantom at heart, and the world shalln't accept me.... So I decide to embrace my inner ghost!" Treveant arms spread widely. "I have transcended the title of King... before you, stands a GOD!!! Will-O-Wisp!!!"

His attacks burned my body, but burned my soul even more, I had no time to mourn over the lost of my friend- now foe. "Listen well foul demon! If this is the path you have chosen for thyself! Then so be it! But know that I CACNEA! DEFENDER OF JUSTICE!!! Shall defeat you."

Treveant glared at me even more. "Do you're worst! You have already mocked me as it is, I will not let someone who I had so highly respected get the better of me, Shadow Ball!!!."

His words confused me. How was I responsible for such a horrible change of heart!? Was there any way I can - "NOW JUST HOLD ON JUST A MINUTE!!!"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There was a pergnant pause at the campfire, many Pokemon from both trainers, were sitting down around the campfire telling stories of how their lives had been before they joined Team Rocket. Right now it was Cacnea's turned and everyone was so deeply concentrated on his story, even Amoongus who's always been far to serious, before Cacnea was so rudely interrupted by Inkay.

Cacnea coughed. "Um... yes fair maiden, how may I answer your question?"

"Well it's not so much as an question and more of a complaint."

Cacnea's eyebrow rose (if he had any.). "And tell me fair maiden, what is this complaint of yours?"

Carnivine shot Inkay a annoyed look. "Ya! Why did you just interrupt Cacnea's awesome story? They where just about to fight."

Inkay glared at Carnivine. "Did you find nothing wrong with this story!?"

Amoongus was the first to speak up. "I found nothing wrong with the story, it was quite entertaining."

"There you see!? Even Amoongus liked the story! Freaking Amoongus!!!"

"Well EXCUSE ME, FOR TRYING TO SHED SOME LIGHT TO THIS STORY!!! Such as a Treveant using Will~O~Wisp!!! Not only that, but doesn't this story sound familiar to you?"

Carnivine glared at Inkay. "You know what, I think your jealous!"

Inkay looked at Carnivine aghast. "Me! jealous!?"

Carnivine stood up. "Ya, I think your jealous, because your story wasn't even close to being as good as Cacnea's."

"How dare you!!!"

One by one all of the Pokémon around started to get up and walk back towards their pokeballs, not wanting to be around when a fight broke out. Amoongus jumped towards Cacnea, when he noticed him looking rather glum. "Hey, if it's any constellation, I would simply love to hear the rest of the story."

Cacnea instantly brighten up. " Excellent!!! Well as Treveant and I-"

The two Pokémon walked farther away from the campsite, as a series of attacks broke loose, causing a lot of noise in the campsite, no doubt the noise would wake up a rather angry Tomas.

Ch.10- The Mission

Equestria

1000 years ago

Everfree Forest

'Battle for Ponyville'

Celestia knew that this was going to be a tough battle the rocket agent she was battling was using a creature that she did not know about, which is not a good thing, she had been there when Team Rocket had caught every single one of their Pokémon, but this one, she had never seen. 'She must have gotten it when she joined Discord.'. This was not the first time she battled against a Pokémon, far from it. The only problem was  that she has no idea what type of creature this is or what it's weakness are, 'So far attacking it with brute force seems to have no affect on it, must be a ghost, could it be one of the survivor's of the phantom army?.' and shaking down a new opponent in the middle of battle was never a good thing, especially if it was a ex-member of the phantom army.

"Pumpka!" At the sound of the creature's voice, large vines erupted from the ground, wrapping them selves onto Celestia, she could feel the vines slowly draining her power.

Nearby the bushes rustled and came out a creature it's body resembled a ghostly pumpkin. The ghostly body that lives in the pumpkin is black with a pointy collar, yellowish eyes with no visible pupils, a pair of fangs, curved ears and a curled stem. Behind it came out two other creatures, a Wobbuffet and her friend-now enemy Sarah or Jessie as she liked to be called now and days. On her neck was a small necklace with a red gem. ' A chaos shard! Damn looks like this battle going to be tougher than I thought.'

"Dark pulse!" The pumpkin inhaled a lot of air before shooting a stream of black rings at Celestia. Luckily she was able to teleport out of the way.

As soon as Celestia saw that she was free from the vines, she tried to make a run for it, however her body refused to go any further she became confused and looked down. "*Gasp*" Celestia's shadow was being connected to Wobbuffet's! 'Shadow Tag!' Not many ponies know it, but Wobbuffet's magic was very similar to Dark magic. It was because of his magic being so similar to Dark magic that Celestia had been a bit hesitant about letting the creature stay with them, however as time went on she found Wobbuffet to be excellent company and a good friend. 'Looks like if I want to get out of here, I'm going to have to get rid of Wobbuffet first!'

Celestia saw the pumpkin creature right behind her preparing a attack. 'Excellent.' Quickly she ran towards Wobbuffet as he prepared 'Counter'. As soon as Celestia was in front of the Wobbuffet, she used her wings to boost her jump. Wobbuffet was confused for a while, but he quickly saw the pumpkin's Dark pulse attack heading straight towards him. As the attack made contact Wobbuffet was blown back towards Celestia, who fired a large beam of magic instantly knocking out the Wobbuffet and his disabling his Shadow Tag spell.

“Wobbuffet, huh? Interesting choice of attack, but no big threat once you figure out a strategy to beat him .” Celestia said confidently.

"Seed Bomb!" Celestia felt as if four large rocks had just been launched onto her back.

"That may be true, but can your strategy beat this." Jessie took out another pokeball and tossed it in the air, from it was what looked like a giant cobra. It had a menacing red and yellow pattern on its stomach which looked like intimidating eyes. Celestia recoiled slightly at the sight of them and her hooves became shaky. The head was outstretched, eyes blaring out of its head and sharp teeth poking out of its lips. It screeched as it jumped closer to her. "CHAAAAAARBOK!" then curved round to face Celestia and landed on the ground.  

It then slithered towards her with great increasing speed. Celestia was terrified and trotted backwards, but bumped into the rock. The snake-creature then stopped as it got in front of her and it towered above her height, looking her dead on in the eyes. The creature's eyes widened and became more menacing every second.

Suddenly, Celestia found that her bones were frozen up. She couldn't move. This Glare had completely paralyzed her. The snake then stretched backwards slowly and darted towards her, baring its huge and sharp teeth. Celestia unleashed a magical blast. The blast exploded on collision with the creature's chest and sent it flying backwards into a tree. Celestia managed to move slowly now, but occasionally her bones would stiffen up and stop moving. She made slow pace forward, seeing what had happened to the snake. It sat there staring at her again, hissing, but it didn't move. It was hurt too.

Celesia thought for a moment and remembered a spell she had learned, when some of Arbok's poison had gotten to Tomas when Arbok had been in heat. She closed her eyes and focused what of her magic she could. Her horn glowed with a faint golden aura and her hooves became less tense. Quickly enough, her paralysis was completely gone.

"Detox spell!" she giggled, "now do your worst, Arbok" Celestia taunted, scraping her hoof along the ground and channeling magical energy to her horn.

"ARRRRBOK!" the snake creature screeched, launching itself towards Celestia. The Alicorn caught it with a levitation spell and spun it around, then flung it towards the rock behind her.

"CHAR!!!"

The snake had smashed itself into her and she went flying, and crashed into a tree. Arbok towered over her again. She couldn't move since its lower tail was coiled around her back hooves and the upper tail was crushing her body. It lunged at her and she screamed as in pain as it dug its fangs into her shoulder, instantly piercing her skin and sinking deep towards the bone. Blood trickled out not only because the hole was open, but because it was now overflowing as another substance filled her body. Along with the overflowing crimson blood came a deep purple liquid. Celestia didn't see this though, she was only screaming in pain. The snake finished its attack and moved up from Celestia's shoulder, licking her blood and its own venom from its lips.

Strangely, Celestia was half pretending to be helpless in that moment, she knew the snake would take this chance to admire her work. The snake did not notice that her horn and itself had began to glow. Celestia, half grunting at the pain she had just endured, lifted the snake up with a levitation spell and wrapped its tail around a Jessie and Wobbuffet, then tied them up in a knot. The large snake could only swing back and forth to try and attack Celestia, yelling "ARBOK" over Jessie's screaming.

Celestia half-whispered, "Well it seems I won." then she flinched downwards in pain. She looked at her shoulder and saw the tricking purple liquid. She then looked up at Arbok.  "P-poison?" she gasped, "no matter. I'll just use another detox spell." Instantly she was cured.

"Pumpka!"

Celestia was tackled to the ground, she looked up and nearly sighed in annoyance, she had forgotten about the pumpkin. Celestia not wanting to deal with this, took out Jessie's pokeball and used it on the pumpkin-like creature, it was instantly sucked in.

"HEY!!! NO FAIR THATS CHEATING!!!"

"SAYS THE GIRL WHO USES MAGICAL CREATURES TO FIGHT FOR HER!!!" Celestia was about to trot away, before she saw two small claws floating to Sarah trying to untangle Arbok from then. 'Those claws...Black Fog!? Impossible he's dead I made sure of it!' Out of fear Celestia casted a light spell revealing a creature similar to Black Fog only with some minor differences, It has a round head with a pair of disembodied hands. Each hand has three pointed fingers. Its head is flanked by three large, spiked protrusions on either side, and its eyes are large and triangular with small pupils. The gases composing its head curve down to form several pointed teeth framing a pink mouth and a long tongue. Its body tapers into a jagged tail. Even though this creature wasn't Black Fog, Celestia could tell that they were the same species, the color of it's body was purple instead of black, and it was at least 5'03", unlike Black Fog who's height could be easily compared to a full-powered Tirek.

Celestia sighed in relief. "Oh... It's only a Haunter." After a few seconds Celestia's eyes widen. "A Haunter!!!" Haunters were notorious in Equestria along with any other ghost type Pokémon that came here to Equestria simply for fact that they were basically the gathers of the Phantom King's army. Everypony knew that when you see a Haunter, Lampent, Litwick, Duskull, or a Shuppet that you were basically dead. These notorious creatures go around stealing the souls of her subjects only so that they can grow stronger.

It was because of the actions of the Phantom King and his minions that Luna along with the rest of the Lunar guard had gone around trying to kill every single ghost they can find. It was thanks to Pharaoh the new Phantom King that there are still any ghost types still around, he offered to take the remaining ghost and leave Equestria and never return. Although there are still some ghost around Equestria, usually those who are still loyal to the original Phantom King, or sometimes even the friendly Ghost Trio doing pranks on poor unsuspecting ponies usually with Luna and Team Rocket.

Upon closer exception the Haunter had a red bow tie on him, revealing that he was a member of the Ghost Trio. Celestia rose an eyebrow at him. "Max?" The Haunter froze when he heard his name. "Max what are you doing." Unlike most Haunters, Max has a mischievous and happy nature, showing that he enjoys more of having fun and making people laugh than battling, though this usually involves hurting or scaring people. He is also very sensitive, ' I remember him becoming very depressed when I initially failed to get amused by its humor, not to mention he got depressed about me telling him he had to leave. '

For a second Max looked like he was having a war inside of him. "I'm very sorry your highness, but I can't let you take my friend away. HYPNOSIS!!!" A just like that Celestia blacked out.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Equistria Present time

Canterlot Hospital

"After I woke up from Max's Hypnosis attack, Jessie was gone and Ponyville had fallen into Discord's control, I had failed my subjects once again, although this time Team Rocket wasn't one our side. After that with the help of Starswirl we had discovered the location of the Tree of Harmony, and used the Elements to defeat Discord and Team Rocket once and for all."

Celestia looked up from the hospital bed, after she had finished her story and saw a mixure of shocked, fear, anger, and sadness from her subjects faces. Fluttershy's coat had tear stains and she was still openly crying, Pinkie's hair was completely flat and had tears in her eyes.

Rainbow Dash looked up at the princess with sadness and anger in her eyes. "But why would Luna just go and do that!? Aren't James and Luna the best of friends? Why would she just go and crush him like that."

Celestia wavered a bit at the glare. "She wasn't being herself! She was under the affects of the curse!"

Twilight looked up at Celestia confused. "I thought you said curses don't exist?"

Celestia sighed. "Most curses aren't real, some curses, curses from Ghost, Dark Mages, and Voodoo Masters are real." Celestia looked down again. "*SIGH* And some times those curse can take away something you love, or change them for the worse."

"Was the curse the reason why Luna became Nightmare Moon?"

"A part of it yes...." Celestia looked up at Twilight. "Twilight this is why I must ask you to capture Team Rocket, and bring them here, and hopefully after we tell them the full story and ask for their forgiveness, we can become friends again." A tear rolled down the side of her face. "Just like old times...."

"You can count on us princess." Applejack was the first to speak up, the rest of the girls slowly agreed with her.

"Thank you, and good luck my little ponies."

Ch.11- Lost

Equestria

1005 years ago

Canterlot Castle

Canterlot was in an uproar, currently their was a large number of ponies in front of the castle demanding to know why the very people who had saved them from Discord, were currently taken into questioning. Not even one hour ago there had been a large party to celebrate Discord's retreat, when the guards had came in to take the trio to the princesses for questioning, the whole city had gone to an uproar. It had taken hours but the guards had finally managed to pry the citizens off of the trio.

(Tomas P.O.V.)

Hours after the guards had pried the citizens off us, we found ourselves being politely guided through a large castle (Apparently over half of the guards had been extremely grateful of their rescue.). The castle looked beautiful, but I just couldn’t shake the small fear to really pay any attention as we were lead onwards. We stopped at a pair of large doors and the guards chatted for a moment before they opened the doors. I looked up briefly to the sight of two larger ponies with horns and wings on thrones. The shorter one my right had a blowing mane of the color of a moonlit night with stars flowing through it.  Her dark blue coat was so beautiful, but her harsh glare ruined it for me. The taller of the pair was pure white in color with a multicolor mane that was also blowing in a non-existent wind. It was the latter who spoke first.

“You may leave us.” she asked with the voice that a mother would use on her children. It was warm comforting, yet also commanding. The lead guard in front of me bowed before leaving, the others soon followed. “I thank you, creature, for saving my little ponies from Discord's wraith. This war with the him has been a deadly one and I don’t think we would be able to do it without our good captain. So, thank you…”

"James, my name is James.” With me being dress like this, I might as well be.

My sister seemed to catch on. "Jessie."

"And don't forget about me!" Meowth jumped up and landed between our shoulders. "Names Meowth."

“ We like to thank thou as well,” said the other behind her. “Although I am a bit surprised that a cat can actually talk." Everyone looked over at Meowth who was standing between both mine's and Sarah's shoulders.

“Allow me to introduce us. I am Princess Celestia, and this is my sister, Princess Luna. We rule of the country of Equestria as its alicorn leaders.” Not quite sure what ‘alicorn’ meant, but I guessed it meant a pony with wings and a horn. Their gracious attitude really help me out my little funk there. “What are you? I can say that I have never seen a creature like you before?”

"I am a Pokémon trainer,” I answered after a moment. “A kind of human who trains Pokémon or Pocket Monsters if you want the full name.”

“Human? Never heard of such a creature. The Pocket Monsters, those are the creatures you used to beat Discord right?” Luna asked me.

I nodded. "Yes, if you want I can give you two a closer look of one."

The two Princesses looked intrigued, they looked at each other then nodded. I grinned and took out a pokeball (I really didn't know who's ball I grabbed though.). "alright then come on out!" I threw the ball high up in the air, in a explosion of light a large carnivorous plant appeared, it let out a loud screech.  

"Wait James!!!"

In a span of 3 seconds my whole vision went black. "Hey, who turned off the lights?" Not even a second later I felt two sharp teeth poking my back and a bit of drool falling onto my face. "AAAHHH!!!! Oh God! it's everywhere! I never knew that it was like this! And the teeth, there poking me-e-e-e!"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It took them a whole ten mintues but we finally got Victreebel of me. Princess Luna of course wanted to blast Victreebel thinking that he wasn't trained enough and could pose a threat to her citizens, but after explaining that Victreebel's show affection by chomping onto peoples heads, they calmed down.

The doors opened and a old pony wearing a odd cape and hat with bells on them rushed in. " Princess, I have just received word that Discord had just entered the city."

Princess Celestia gave the old pony a small smile. "Do not worry Starswirl, Discord had just been driven out of the city thanks to Team Rocket and their 'Pokémon'." Celestia chuckled at Starswirl's shocked look.

"Pokémon?"

Luna nodded. "Yes Starswirl, the carnivorous plant you see before you and the cat are both Pokémon." Luna pointed at both Victreebel and Meowth, who was busy getting petted by Luna.

Starswirl seeing the large plant, ran closer to it. "My word, I have never seen such a strange creature." He turned towards the two princesses. "Are you sure it's not one of Discord's creations?"

I snorted. " I'll have you know my darling Victreebel has nothing to do with that creature, and it's a SHE! Not a IT!" I finished with glaring at the very rude pony.

Sarah turned to me confused. "How do you know it's a she?"

I turned towards my Victreebel. "You're a she, right?" Victreebel blush and nodded yes. Victoriously I turned towards Sarah grinning. " I was right, it's a she."

Meowth finally spoke up. "Still doesn't explain how you knew Jimmy." Meowth stood up from his position grinning. " Unless you checked yourself, if you know what I mean."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*CRASH*

"AAAHHH!!! JAMES CALL THEM OFF, I'M SORRY!!!" If there where any guards currently at the halls, they would have seen one of the strangest sights in their career. A two headed ball of gas and a large plant chasing a talking cat.

"WEEE!!!"

"VICTREEEE!!!"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Certainly spectacular,” Luna said grinning at Meowth's misfortune.

“Indeed sister,” added Celestia. Celestia and Luna looked at each other for a few minutes before turning back to me. “Team Rocket, I have a proposition for you three. Would you be willing to assist us in protecting Equestria from the Discord's attacks? We could truly use the assistance.”

I thought on their offer for a few minutes. There were several pros and cons to this. Pros being that maybe I could get a house or at least some place to live out of the deal and maybe even some form of money. Cons being that I would quite likely be asked to kill, if the need ever rises and I didn’t know if I could do that. But if I didn’t, it won’t necessarily be soldiers getting attacked. It could be innocent civilians, possibly even children. The very thought made my blood boil. If that Discord is actually cruel enough to do that, then with those reality warping powers, they wont stand a chance.

I turned towards Sarah. "Whatever you do, just know I'll be with you every step of the way." I made my decision right there and then what I would do in this world.

“Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, We will join you in your efforts to protect your citizens.” They smiled gratefully at me. They offered me place to stay at the castle as well as military pay for food and furniture my new room, as well for the rest of the Pokémon and my family. I gratefully accepted and our friendship bloomed from there.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Equestria

present time

Meowth groaned loudly as walked through the woods, taking care to avoid any stray roots in his path, behind Meowth was a large black snake named Seviper, along with a large moth named Dustox.

"Ah, my belly needs food, bad." Meowth grumbled. Drool escaped his mouth, imagining of all the food he could have. "We better find some grub soon."

Seviper rolled his eyes. "[ Oh quit your complaining, your not the only one who's hungry.]"

Meowth continued walking, ignoring Seviper's remark. Until a bright red ball caught his attention. "Huh? What's that?"

Dustox flew up to the red ball. "[Hey it's a pokeball!]" Dustox grabbed the ball and flew down, giving it to Meowth.

Meowth sniffed the ball. "Smells like it might be one of Sarah's."

"[That girl, keeps losing all of our pokeballs. I swear one day she's is going to lose one of use for good.]" Seviper grumbled.

"Yeah, and I hope it's you." Meowth threw the ball up in the air, determine to find out who it is.

In a flash of light a blue blob had appeared. "[Reporting for duty Ma'am!]" Whatever Meowth had hoped for this was not it.

"Oh, it's you."

Wobbuffet looked around him trying to find Sarah. "[I'm sorry if I caused you any inconvenience, Sir.]" Wobbuffet did a small salute. "[But that's the way it is.]" Meowth wasn't really sure if Wobbuffet was mocking him or not, but with how honest and trust worthy he is most of the time, he was probably being sincere. After a while of looking around Wobbuffet started to panic. "[ Ma'am!? Sarah!?]" Wobbuffet grabbed Meowth and shook him. "[Sir! where is Mistress Sarah and her loyal adviser Tomas!?]"

Luckily for Meowth, Dustox came up to calm the frantic blob. "[Easy there Wobbuffet, panicking won't solve anything, we just got separated from Sarah and the rest, but I'm sure their looking for us too.]"  After getting Wobbuffet to let go of Meowth, he started to take deep breaths.

"[You're right, Mistress would want me to make it through.]" Wobbuffett turned back to the rest of the group. "[Alright men, let's go find Mistress Sarah!]"

Dustox cheered, and started to follow Wobbuffet deeper into the woods. Seviper wrapped his tail around the unconscious Meowth dragging him along. "[Hopefully we won't run through any trouble here.]" Although Seviper knowing their luck their bound to get into some type of trouble, before finding Sarah and the rest.  

Ch.12- A Screwy Reuinon

Equestria

present time

Seviper turned his head, currently scouting the area around them, his eyes struggling to see anything but trees. Next to him was one of the few Pokémon he can actually tolerate (Even if she can be a bit annoying) Dustox, who was currently flying around.

A overly cheerful voice suddenly called out. "[Hey! Seviper, I spy something....green!]"

Seviper suppressed a groan. "[Is it a tree?]"

"[YA! How'd you know?]"

Seviper wanted to yell at her for forgetting what they came up here for, but yelling at her or even making her cry would be just like kicking a newborn puppy. "[Dustox, we're suppose to looking for a way out of this forest.]"

Dustox frowned a bit. "[Ya I know, but it's so BORING!]" Seviper rolled his eyes.

Meowth's voice rang out. "Hey! You guys found anything yet?"

Dustox flew down towards Meowth, while Seviper slithered down from the tree. "[Nope, sorry Meowth.]"

"*Sigh* Well guess we should try something else." Meowth turned around towards Wobbuffet. "Hey Wobs! What now?" Wobbuffet had his back turned, he seemed to be staring at something. "Hey Wobs, you okay?" Meowth walked towards the silent blob. "Wobbuffet?"

"[Shhhh!!!]"

Meowth blinked. "Huh?" Wobbuffet motioned Meowth closer, hesitantly Meowth and the others walked closer to Wobbuffet. "What's wrong?"

Wobbuffet pointed behind the bushes he was looking at. "[Sir, does that filly look familiar to you?]"

Meowth looked to where Wobbuffet was pointing at and gasped, standing there was a filly about 10 or 11 years old, she had a dark pink coat, her white-and-purple mane raggedy. Her Cutie Mark was of a screw and baseball, and a propeller beanie seemed to be permanently affixed to her cranium. It was her eyes however, her eyes that threw the Pokémon for a loop. Her eyes…had no pupils, instead possessing spirals, one clockwise, and the other anti-clockwise. "That's- That's Discord's brat!!!"

Meowth was instantly pushed out of the way by a overly excited Dustox. "[Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Screwy!?]"

Seviper slithered closer. "[Ya... I think that is Screwball.]" Seviper turned towards Meowth. "[But, shouldn't she be with Discord, trapped in stone?]"

Meowth got up. "You would think so." Meowth turned back towards the small filly. "I guess Celestia forgot to mention her, to the new elements."

The filly 'Screwball' turned around when she heard a twig snap, the four Pokémon also turned around to where Screwball turned towards to. From the bushes three dog like creatures appeared. "Diamond Dogs." Meowth hissed.

One of the diamond dogs stepped forward. "Hello little pony, you got something that belongs to us."

Screwball grabbed her hat and clenched it hard. "Go away! It belongs to me!"

The lead dog sneered. "Fine then, GRAB HER!!!" From the bushes six more dogs came out, wearing armor and holding spears started charging at the small filly.

"AIR SLASH!, AND USE BUBBLEBEAM!"

Three of the diamond dogs were instantly thrown backwards, the leader looked in front of him and saw a strange assortment of creatures, a huge pink jellyfish, a blue furry bat and a hairless ape like creature standing in front of the filly. "Who are you?"

Jessie smirked, she turn towards Woobat and nodded. Woobat  understood and her body glowed. The diamond dogs felt something enter their minds, and instantly they could understand what the jellyfish and the furry bat were saying.

Jessie spoke first. "If 'who are you' is the question you ask..."

Woobat grinned. "...The answer we give you is our compassion for chaos!"  

"To infect the world with devastation...

To uphold the evils of this world!"

Frillish jumped in between the two. "To spread anarchy whenever we can!"

"To carry out the evils of chaos and disharmony!

The lovely beautiful villains!

Jessie!

Woobat!

The fiery destroyer of the Rocket gang spreads anarchy at the speed of light!  

Rejoice as the god of chaos will soon make it's return!"

Frillish once again jumped in front of them. "Something like that!"

"PUMPKABOO!!!"

Everfree Forest

present time

(Tomas P.O.V.)

Braving the Everfree forest was possibly the stupidest thing anyone can do. Something I had to remind myself constantly as these damned wooden mutts kept reforming and attacking me. It was getting more and more frustrating as both Carnivine and Inkay fought against masses of non unified twigs, that were acting similarly to that of a wooden tornado as they raked and clawed their ways into them, luckily my Pokémon were way more tougher than that. I was in the deeper woods and but luckily I wasn't alone.

Yet another set of howls, the third set signifying yet another incoming pack of wooden mongrels that was driving me to my last nerve, the temptations just to set the forest aflame was growing every second, but I withheld the urge. The last thing I needed was a forest fire burning out of control to draw attention to myself.

That, however, didn't mean I was left with no options. I grit my teeth as we scrambled away from yet another set of hungry fangs and claws, my rocket uniform already torn in several places, and it was only pure luck that we hadn't suffered worse. I had already sent Mime Jr. to his pokeball, in fear of him getting hurt.

Carnivine flicked out his vines left and right, cutting their wooden heads in two, however whatever magic drove these beasts, refused to let them die. These timber wolves were making hard to not force me to burn down part of the forest. That and they were surrounding me. Cursing, I had grab another pokeball, one of the only three Pokémon who I hadn't used in Canterlot. 'Hopefully his flames will keep them away.'. "Archie, your up!"

In a explosion of light another Pokémon joined the battle, he was a orange dog with jagged black stripes, he had beige fur covering his whole head. "ARCANINE!!!" Arcanine or Archie as I like to call him, wasn't always a Arcanine, he used to be a Growlithe that I found during the war against Discord, back then I used to call him Growlie. "Archie, burn these wolves to the ground with Flamethrower!"

Archie let out a stream of flames out towards the pack of wolves, instantly turning a few of them to ash. But the even more of them showed up. "Damn, Archie! Carnivine! Inkay! Come back!" Instantly the three of them rushed back towards me, making a half circle around me.

Looking across the field I saw that the timberwolves were far from done messing with me, they had combined into a much much larger wolf, the wolf let lose a loud roar causing Carnivine and Inkay to flinch a little.

"GASTLY!!!"

Before the timberwolf could do anything, a large purple ball of gas had burst out of the bushes and sent out a large Shadow ball towards the wolf.

Seeing the ghost type, I was about to order Arcanine to attack, until the Gastly had turned around revealing a black bow tie. "Hello Tomas long time no see."

I looked at Gastly shocked, the shock expression however turned to happy smile. "Marx!?"

The Gastly smiled. "So you do remember me!"

I looked around for any sign of the other members of the ghost trio. "Hey where's Max and Alfred?"

Marx playfully rolled his eyes. "Oh you know Max, can't keep his eyes of your sister for a second." I narrowed my eyes for a second. " Oh, and Alfred he's at the old castle. He likes to just roam the halls there now and days."

The large timerwolf roared, reminding us that it is still here. "Oh that's right, the timberwolf." Marx grinned. "Not to worry though, I got this under control." Marx grinned sinisterly at the timberwolf. "Will~O~Wisp!"  The Gastly unleashed his attack as circle of blue flames shot towards the large timberwolf, the wolf let out a loud scream. When the flames died out the timberwolf had turned to ash. "Dream Eater..." A large white flame appeared above the ashes before it became absorbed by the Gastly. Marx turned around to face me. "Should we get going?" Dumbfounded at the display of power I just nodded.

  Though as we kept moving it didn't stay quiet like that for long. The normal sized timberwolves were reconstructing themselves out of the ones that were beaten by Carnivine and Inkay, and already they were resuming chase. It was half an hour of cat and mouse before we reached the large chasm separating the dark crumbling spires of the sisters castle. But luckily for us it seemed, the bridge was out. meaning while Inkay's psychic would allow us to cross, the timberwolves had no such luck with a gap far too wide for them to jump.

The castle itself was massive, even in its ruined state. While Canterlot's castle might of been impressive in its stature and as radiant as Celestia, the old castle used of been much bigger in the past, a wave of nostalgia hit me as old memories returned to me. Though in its crumbling state, the old castle was almost as I had remembered it.

The smell of mold and fungus welcomed me as I entered the castle, rugs and tapestries worn down by both the sun and sporadic weather of the everfree forest. I was surprised by the lack of actual wildlife within its halls. I would of expected at least some sort of monster or beast to have taken up residence within the crumbling ruins, but it was just that, ruins. No biological economy to keep such a thing within a dead stone hall fortress that composed the old castle. Though the sheer size of what remained of the castle was still nothing to be overlooked.

However the first room I had gone into was one that hold the most memories, my room. Everything was exactly how I had left it before, toys for my Pokémon were scattered across the floor, a luxurious bed, my old suit of armor I wore when I was a member of the royal guard, and a small desk at the corner of the room. I walked towards my old desk, several documents and papers were scattered across the desk, but what really stood out was the old picture of me, Luna, Mime Jr., Weezing, and Chimecho, all of us smiling.

"Carnivine?"

I turned towards Carnivine, who looked rather worried for me. I notice a few tears escaped my eyes, I quickly brush them of. "Don't worry about me Carnivine, just remembering about the good old days." Carnivne gave me a sad smile.

"Tomas?"

I looked up and saw Marx looking at us. "Umm... I found Alfred, he's very eager to see you again."

Ch.13- Phantom Menace

Equestria Canterlot Castle

1004 years ago

5 months after Discord's first defeat

*Bong, bong, bong!*

The silence of the room was disturbed by the vibrations that filled air as the metal gears ground together with a metallic click. Something stirred in the bed of the Princess Celestia's room. Celestia awoke from her sleep and poked her head out of her bed sheets to find what had disturbed her sleep.      

*Bong, bong, bong!*

Her ears perked up as she scanned the room for the source of the noise. Her eyes followed her ears as she looked around the room.

*Bong, bong, bong!*

As the noise went off for the third time, Celestia locked eyes with the noise that caused her to wake up. It was the grandfather clock that Meowth had built for her. Celestia glared at the clock. Sometimes she wondered if the clock was meant to be Meowth's revenge for when she accidently lost his charm. As Celestia tired her hardest at glaring at the grandfather clock, she noticed the two arms the clock was positioned to.

It was five in the morning, and the sun should have been starting to rise up to start the day.

"You win this time." After her failed attempt at giving the clock a piece of her mind, Celestia took off her bed sheets to get out of bed and then proceeded to start raising the sun.

But there was a problem. Celestia could not raise the sun.

Again Celestia concentrated to begin her spell, but she wasn't able to feel the warmth of the sun as she tried to find it.

"What is going?" Celestia asked herself.

" What's the matter Celestia, can't you use your magic to raise your measly little sun?" the voice echoed around the room.

Celestia's eyes widened as she heard the voice of an old foe she defeated long ago.

"Jack?!"

In a flash of light a familiar Pokémon had appeared. The Pokémon was known as Bannette it has three short spikes on its head and a long zigzagging ribbon trailing off the back of its head. A zipper acts as its mouth, and it has purplish-pink eyes with slit pupils. Its long, flat arms have three-fingered hands, while its legs are short and stubby. It has a yellow, brush-like tail. Unlike all the other Pokémon she met, this Pokémon didn't belong Team Rocket. No, this one belonged to Discord.

Celestia was about to attack the creature, but then she noticed something off about it, his eyes were dimmed, and his body was in horrible condition.

"What- What happened to you?"

Jack looked up and gave Celestia his signature grin, only that it wasn't his normal cocky grin, no, this one was a sad, defeated smile. "Not important, what is important is that you have to help me..." the doll answered as he focused back to Celestia.

Celestia rose an eyebrow. "Help you? And why should I help you? And what have you done to the sun!?"

Jack's grin never left him. "The reason why you can't raise your sun is because i'm speaking to you in a dream. And if you don't help me, my master's fate could become yours."

That had certainly gotten Celestia's attention, something happened to Discord while trapped in Tartarus? "What do you mean?"

The Bannette's eyes flashed. "Why don't I show you."

Celestia's eyes opened, seeing that she was alone, she looked around, until she heard a explosion nearby. Celestia ran towards the explosion and saw somepony she knew all too well, Discord. Although there were some differences in her old enemy. The first thing Celestia noticed was that Discord looked a lot more weaker, there were burn marks and bruises all over his body and scars that ran deep, exposing some skin. Another noticeable difference was one of his horns, his unicorn horn was mangled, one could not even tell it was a unicorn horn. His chaos gem was broken, pieces of it scattered across the floor.  

All of a sudden Discord became surrounded by sword-like creatures, their single eyes, which was purple with a white, linear pupil, readied their stances in the offensive of the sword-like creature's blade form, as they carried their shield in the left arm and exposed their golden blades, ready to attack. Jack had appeared in front of Discord, determine to protect him, his mouth began to open as a dark energy began to leak out.

"Enough." , A loud commanding voice echoed.

Immediately, the sword-like creatures went to their defensive stance, a shield form, as they held their shield up in front of the blade, with both of their arms crossed behind the shield. Three more creatures appeared, two of them were a mummy like creature both of them only had one eye. The third one was a pitch-black figure he was shadow-like . It's small head had a white fog-like mane flowing in a non existent breeze from its head covering one of its bright piercing blue eyes. It also had a red spiky growth around its neck. It had skinny arms and long black tatters hanging from its shoulders with black, claw-like hands. It had the slight appearance of an hourglass figure and appeared to be wearing an old, ripped cloak.

The creature spoke. "Young Bannette, why do you side with this creature and not your fellow ghost?"

Jake growled. "My name is Jack and he-," Jack pointed at Discord. " -is my master."

The black figure chuckled. "Master?" The creature shook his head, as if he was disappointed. "Bannette don't you see? We're in a new world! Filled with these pathetic creatures, who are so weak, that an Meowth's natural abilities impress and awe these weak minded equines!"

The figure pointed at Discord. "Even this creature you call master! Who has the power of a god! Was weak enough to let himself be defeated by a team of six Pokémon. Do you not see this is our chance! We can rule over these creatures, and be treated as the gods we are!"

"You seem to act all high and mighty even as you fight a opponent who's magic was stripped from him. That shows that you are a coward, so why don't you fight me? ", Jack shot back.

"An amusing thought Jack, but there is no point in engaging in battle with you, I have already won." the pitch-black figure answered while turning its back to Jack. "Now leave, there is nothing you can do."

"NO! " Yelled Jack, "I WILL NOT LET YOU LEAVE! NOT BEFORE I MAKE YOU REGRET EVER FIGHTING AGAINST MY MASTER!" Jack shot a Shadow Ball toward the pitch-black figure hitting it in it's back.

     In an instant, the sword-like creatures reappeared around Jack in their  blade form and lunged forward to attack. But the attack was halted by a strong telekinetic attack. When Jack saw this, he saw that it was the Discord who was using the last of his magic to stop the attackers with. Discord flung the sword-like creatures away from Jack, throwing them into the walls of the room, eventually disappearing into nothingness.

  "Very well Jack, I gave you a chance to leave, but now you will get your wish."

The pitch-black creature vanished from sight. Jack had to become alert; he had no idea where it will strike. As he tried to figure out where it went, the shadowy form reappeared behind him. One of it's claws glowed black with a purple outline. The aura grew into a large claw, and the shadowy figure struck Jack. Jack fell on to all four as he felt the claws sink through his back.

Again the pitch-black figure reappeared to strike at Jack, but this time he was ready for it. Jack flew up into the air as the shadowy figure attempted to attack him from below. Jack's mouth opened as a foul energy started to leak as he searched for the pitch-black creature. From out of the shadows, the creature attacked again and when Jack saw an opening, he discharged his attack in front of the creature, landing a critical blow at the creature. The pitch-black creature retreated into the shadows as it tried to recover from the direct hit.

"Lucky hit, but you will not land another so easily."

Jack simply smirked at what he just observed. He had noticed that his opponent would only spring up to attack anywhere the room was darkest. This gave him an idea. Jack's whole body began to glow. In a short distance , the shadowy creature became aware of what the ghost type was doing, he began to rush towards him. Just as Jack was about to release the energy he gathered up, the creature jumped out of the shadows behind him. The creature crouched together and then extended its arms quickly, making a wave of purple circles come out of its body and hit it's opponent. In its place were the screams of pain as the ghost type fell.

"I told you that I had no reason to fight you. You are weak. The power I will gain from your master will make me invincible." The creature turned his back. "You never even stood a chance." said the creature.

"Who-Who are you?"

"I am the pitch black Pokémon, The Phantom King Darkria." Darkria put his hand on top of Discord's head. "And with this body, no one will be able to defeat me." Darkria's body began to glow, and soon enough both Discord and the Phantom King began to merge. "Let the era of the phantoms begin!"

Ch.14- And then there were 3...er 5

Everfree forest

Castle of the two Sisters

(Tomas POV)

It had already been a few hours since Marx had found us, and we had found ourselves being guided to Celestia’s old room, bringing back some rather pleasant memories.

“Tomas.”

I turned towards Marx, and saw something unusual about him, his trademark grin was replaced with a depressed look. "What's wrong?"

Marx opened his mouth several times before sighing, "never mind, just be careful."

His words confused me a bit, but eventually I just shook it of, I looked at the rusted door handle, I just couldn’t shake off the small sense that something was wrong.

“Tomas," Marx called snapping me out of my thoughts, "he’s waiting.”

Taking a deep breath, I pushed the door open, the room had definitely seen better days. Instantly my attention was driven to the figure standing in the middle of the room, his whole body seem to resemble a rather chubby goblin, his eyes were a rather intimidating shade of red, his grin widening every second, his most noticeable feature was the small black top hat, with a golden triangle on his head, showing that he was a member of the ghost trio.

“Tomasss!!!” The ghost floated closer to me until our faces were practically touching, “It’s beeeen ages my old friend, how have you beeeen?”

“hehe, I've been great Alfred, thanks for asking.” by now I had noticed that Marx had left.

Alfred floated back towards his spot, in the middle of the room. “Thaat’ss nicee.” His eyes darted from me to Carnivine. “Well, if it isn't the big mouth.”

Carnivine let out a small growl. “Car, Car!”

Alfred rolled his eyes. “Oh save your breath, normal attacks don’t work on little o’l meee.”

Carnivine was about to let out a bullet seed attack, until a Hypnosis attack from the Gengar, put him to sleep. “Weeell, now that’s out of the way, why did you come here to the Everfreeee Tomasss?”

“I need help Alfred.”

The Gengar chuckled. “Let meee guesss, the royal sistersss?”

I nodded. “I assume it’s the same deal as before?”

“Weell, how else am I supposed to get the souls of two of the most powerful beings in the planet?” Alfred snapped his fingers and suddenly a golden piece of paper appeared. “You know the deeeal, I lend youuu some ghost type Pokémon, and you bring meee the soul of Princess Luna or ten random souls, either way I still get some souls and power.” he chuckled, “The choice is yours really.”

Grabbing the piece of paper I looked over it several times before look up to him. “So, you'll help?”

Alfred put his claws on his chest, feigning offense, "Myyy dear sweet child, it's what I live for," Alfred float towards me, "to help poor unfortunate pony folk, like yourself! Poor souls with no one else to go too," his grin widen, "If you like I can sing youuu song about how I help those poor unfortunate souls?"

Chuckling I passed up his offer, "No thanks, though I didn't think you'll help considering what happened last time."

    Alfred waved it off, “Tomass accidents happen, really it’s myyy fault for giving you such bad soldiers.” frowning I opened my mouth, only to have it magically closed, “don’t try to cover for them, I already punished them, I can guarantee that thisss new batch of ghost will defeat the royal sisters.” he suddenly gained a thoughtful look, “Or if youuu like, I can corrupt them, or posses them?”

    “No Alfred, I want to take them on myself, the ghost are just there for a distraction,”

    “hmm.. Alright then, soooo when should weee attack?”

“Fight! Fight! Fight!” The screaming Diamond Dog’s chanted, screaming for blood. The chants were loud and intimidating, especially for Sarah and Screwball.

Screwball whimpered, “Mama.” Sarah looked down on the shivering form of Screwball. “I’m scarred.”

Sarah looked back to the Diamond Dog leader, “I know Screwball, I know.”

The leader smirked, “Are you ready to give up?”

“Fat chance, Woobat Gust!” Woobat flew in front of Sarah and started to flap her wings, determine to push the Diamond Dog back.

“Huh, wind? That’s the best you got?” The Diamond Dog let out roar and started sprinting towards the small bat.

“Woobat, psybeam!” Woobat let out a small multi-colored beam towards the Diamond Dog, mid-sprint however, the large dog jumped and landed on top of the small bat, crushing her.

“WOOBAT!!!”

  From outside the battlefield several Pokémon watched the battle with interest. “Yeesh, poor Woobat.”

Seviper slithered closer to where he can see the battle more clearer without getting caught. “[Shouldn’t we help her?]”

Dustox flew in front of Seviper, looking rather worried, “[Yeah! Woobat and Frillish are Sarah’s more weaker Pokémon.]”

Meowth however, shrugged it off, “I’m sure she’ll be fine, she still has Arbok and Yanmega, not to mention if things do get really bad, she could just use Ditto.”

Seviper glared at Meowth, “[Ditto can only transform into Pokémon, and even then he is still a weak Pokémon!]”

    Wobbuffet jumped between the two, “[Sir! I believe that Seviper is right, Mistress Sarah’s Pokémon aren’t really suited for combat, especially due to their last battle.]”

Meowth tried to think of a way to get out of this situation, he still had a great fear of Diamond Dogs. “Well what about Lickitung?”

Seviper growled, “[The last time Likitung fought with a Diamond Dog, he got tongue tied! Literally!]”

Sarah watched the battled with in slight fear, Pumpkaboo getting all of his attacks thrown back at him, 'when did Diamond Dogs get so tough?' Suddenly a small object glinted at Sarah’s feet. It was a strange black cylinder, with green lines running along it.

“huh?” Sarah picked up the object, and looked at it in interest. “What’s this?” As she picked it up, a oath entered her mind, a promise of aid to whoever used it. Sarah nearly dropped it in surprised, “Whoa,” she looked back at the battle and saw that both Woobat and Frillish weren't doing so good, “I just hope that this isn't another ghost prank.” Sarah looked around it trying to find a way to activate it. “Alright, here goes nothing.”

As soon as she hit the button on the top it released a blinding light. Once it receded, the device had been replaced by a rather rough looking young man.

Sarah gasped in surprise, “a-a another human!?”

“Huh...someone else actually found the token, I’m kinda surprised....” he said, looking at her. “I take it you’re in some kind of trouble?”

Sarah snapped out of her stuttering. “Uh, yeah!” Sarah pointed at the large crowd of Diamond Dogs, who sat there in a shocked silence.

“Huh... haven’t seen any of you guys before,” he said moving over to them. “Uncatalogued DNA detected.” the device on his wrist chirped, running a yellow beam over one of the dogs.

The dogs yelped at the strange light, the leader seeing the strange light jumped in front of him. “What do you think you’re doing?”

“Taking a DNA sample,” he said, looking at him.

“DNA?” The dog leered at the man, “rrrgh, Don’t use your fancy words at me! Who are you!?”

“My name is Jason Hughes, now is there any reason your hassling this woman?”

The dog growled, “It isn’t she we want, it’s that filly!” he pointed at the pink filly standing behind Sarah.

Screwball yelped when she saw the dog pointing at her. “m-mom.”

Sarah took out another pokeball, “Why don’t you leave Screwball alone!”

“Ok, I’m not liking where this is going.” Jason said with a frown. “Now leave before this gets ugly.”

The dog laughed, “hahaha, or what, I already beat two of her magic creatures, what can you do?”

“This, Omnitrix, Rath.” in a bright flash of light, he was replaced with a rather tall and angry looking tiger-man.

Some of the dogs backed away at the sight of the transformation, the leader however remained stubborn, “So you think your fancy magic will make me leave?”

“No,” he said cracking his knuckles. “Rath’s fists will!” he snarled, rushing forward, kneeing a dog in the face.

The dog got up and snarled, “So it’s a fight you want, then a fight you get!” he roared and charged straight at him

Rath grabbed him, tossing him into another dog. “Rath is gonna teach you to pick on fillies! That is not cool!”

The dog growled now seeing red, “Don’t just stand there attack!” All of the hesitated, but shortly all of them lunged at the large tiger-man.

He roared, stabbing a claw into the ground, releasing a shockwave that hurled them all back. “Come on! Rath hasn’t even broken a sweat!”

Suddenly from the bushes came out three Pokemon, a Seviper, Dustox, and Wobbuffet.

The Seviper let out a hiss at the Diamond Dogs. “[I suggest you leave before things get really ugly.]”

“[That’s right!]”

“Wobbuffet!!!”

The Diamond Dog leader snarled, “First that red haired girl, then the shape shifting tiger, and now these three!!!” The Dog let out a roar much louder than the last one, “I’m done with this! Kill them all, and take the filly!”

All of the armored dogs took out spears, and charged at them, determine to kill at least one of them.

Sarah seeing what they were about to do, called Seviper, “Seviper, Poison Tail!” Seviper lunged at one of the nearby Diamond Dogs and attacked.

Rath stopped Seviper, letting out a loud roar that stopped the dogs in their tracks. He moved up to the leader, getting into his face. “If you touch that filly, Rath will use your skull to eat his cereal out of.” he glared into his eyes, poking his chest. “Now you apologize to the filly!”

The leader tried to stay strong, but soon his courage started to waver, “rrgghh, fine! The filly was more trouble than she was worth anyway.” The dog turned back Screwball, “If i ever see you again near Diamond Dog territory, we won’t show mercy!” The dogs walked back, towards whatever mines they came from, the leader staying behind still angry. Soon enough, he snorted and turned back to leave.

Rath grabbed the leader by the head, lifting him up to eye level. “Rath said apologize.”

“RRGGHH,” The dog tried to look intimidating, but soon gave up. “*sigh* I’m sorry.”

“Good,” Rath said putting him down. “Remember what Rath told you about your skull.”

The dog simply nodded and left, trying to salvage whatever pride he had left.

As soon as the Diamond Dogs were out of sight, Sarah turned towards Rath, “Hey, thanks er.. Jason, right?”

“One moment please.” he said holding a hand up, tapping the Omnitrix. A second later he was back to his normal form. “There go and you're welcome.”

Screwball, using her propeller hat, flew up to Jason, “Thanks a lot mister!” Screwball soon gained a confused expression, “But I thought that Mama Sarah and Uncle Tomas were the only hoo-mans in Equestria?”

The bushes rustled again, but this time it was Meowth that came out, “That’s because Tomas and Sarah are the only humans in Equestria.” Meowth pointed at Jason, “so the question is, where do you come from and how did you get here!”

“I’m from another Equestria, and you summoned me here.” Jason said simply, looking at Meowth.

Meowth looked at Jason, bewildered at the idea “Another Equestria? You mean like a parallel universe?”

“There are an infinite number of universe my friend, so yes you are correct.”

Sarah cleared her throat, getting their attention, “Well anyways, thanks for helping us Jason,” Sarah soon got a idea, “Say why don’t I take you to meet my brother!”

“Why not,” he said, smiling

“Great! Let’s go!” Sarah turned around and started walking, but soon stopped walking when she figured out she was still lost, “funny story, hehehe, I'm a bit lost.”

“I can help with that but first.” he said looking at Meowth. “Do you mind if I scan your Pokémon?”

Sarah smiled, and nodded “Alright then.” she took out four more pokeballs and tossed them into the air. “Arbok, Yanmega, Likitung, and Ditto come on out!” Sarah turned too her six Pokémon still out in the field, “Woobat, Frillish, Pumpkaboo, Seviper, Dustox, and Wobbuffet come here please.”

In a burst of light, four more Pokémon had a appeared, seeing that there wasn’t any threat around they all relaxed, soon enough the other Pokémon joined them and started to line up. “Well they're all yours, to scan.”

“Thanks,” Jason said with a smile, letting the Omnitrix scan them. “Last one,” he said, letting it scan Meowth.

Sarah took out all of the pokeballs, returning all of her Pokémon back inside the balls, except for Wobbuffet, who was still worried for his master’s safety. “Well, we should get going now.”

Meowth let out small yawn and climbed behind Screwball’s back, “Yeah all this excitement has gotten me exhausted.”

“I can help with that, Omnitrix Hodgepodge,” Jason said, shifting into a being that looked almost exactly like Discord.

All of them looked at Jason shocked, at the resemblance to Discord, but none were more shocked than Scewball, who was almost tearing up, “Dadd-Daddy?”

Meowth stuttered a bit, “L-L-Lord Discord!? Is that you?”

“Sorry, same species, different brand of chaos,” he said shaking his head.

Screwball looked down disappointed, “Oh,”

“Hey, if it makes you feel better, I was made from him, so that makes me your brother...er uncle... brocle?” he asked, tapping his chin. “Yes that sounds right, that makes me your brocle.”

Screwball feeling a bit more better, started to giggle, “You talk just like my dad,” Soon Screwball’s eye’s lit up, “I have three uncles. I have three uncles! I have three uncles!” Screwball jumped around Hodgepodge, a smile on her face. “This is the best day ever! First I got reunited with Mama Sarah, then with Uncle Meowth, and now I have a new Uncle... brother,... Brocle!” Screwball flew up and hugged Hodgepodge, “Thankyou!Thankyou!Thankyou!”

“Daw! The cuteness is making my arteries hurt,” he said, hugging her back. He turned to Sarah, “If I collapse call the ambulance.”

Sarah giggled, “sure thing.”

Meowth stomped his foot, impatiently, “Hey! As heartwarming as this is, I don’t think it’s a good idea staying at the Everfree, by the time night comes, there will be ghost types coming in all over the place!”

“Relax my fine furred friend.” he looked back at Sarah. “Madame do you have anything that belongs to your brother?”

Sarah looked through her pockets and got out a blue ribbon, with gold markings, “Will this due? It’s my brother’s most prized possession”

“Yes it will,” he said taking it from her. “This might tingle a lot... and by tingle I mean vomit inducing.” he said as he snapped his fingers, using the ribbon to teleport them to his location.

Back at the Everfree castle Tomas was having a discussion on the terms of the deal, “So if I take over Canterlot, you want me to give you Ponyville?” Alfred nodded, “Why?”

“Ponyvilleee is the most closestss town to the Everfreee.”

“I guess that makes sense, but-” but before Tomas can continue, a bright flash caused them both to cover their eyes. When the light disappeared, there stood Meowth, Sarah, Wobbuffet, Screwball, and a being that looked just like Discord.

Alfred squawked in surprise, “Looord Diiisscoord, whaat a surpriseee!”

“Nah, I’m Hodgepodge.” he said shaking his head.

Tomas wanted to question it, but when he caught sight of his family, he ran up to them and tried to hug them all as the best he can, “Sarah, Meowth, Screwball, Wobbuffet! You’re alright!”

Sarah hugged Tomas back, “oh please, no one can separate Team Rocket, forever.”

“That’s right!”

“Wobba!”

The Gengar floated closer to the heartwarming scene, “Weeell if it isn’t Sarah and the rest of the gang.” Alfred chuckled, “Oh Sarah, Max has been sooo lonely without youuu, going on about how your the Juliet to his Romeooo, and other such nonsense.”

Sarah blushed in embarrassment, “Nice to see you too, Alfred.”

Tomas turned towards Hodgepodge, “So Hodgepodge, right? Thanks for bringing them to me.”

“You're welcome!” he said with a huge smile,” This is yours,” he said, holding out the ribbon.

Tomas looked at the ribbon, with a shocked expression, “u-uh, thanks.” carefully he took the ribbon and put in his pocket. “Where did you get it anyways?”

“Your sister let me use it, I locked onto you mana and used it to teleport us here.”

“Well thanks for not damaging it, it’s probably more precious than what my sister told you.” he said, still looking slightly bothered.

“We all have precious things Tomas, it wouldn’t be right of me too destroy yours. That would only cause the bad kind of chaos.”

Tomas chuckled, “You know, you remind a bit of Discord, when we first became friends.”

The Gengar floated between the two, “Weeelll now that weee all meet, why don’t you tell us how another draconequus came to existence?”

“Oh I’m from another universe,” Hodgepodge said, creating a throne made out of legos. He sat down, smirking. “I even beat old Dissy in a chaos duel.”

The Gengar looked at him skeptically, “You, beat Discord?” Soon enough his body started to shake, and he let out a rather unholy laugh, “ HAHAHAHAHA!!! That’s ridiculous!” He wiped away a few tears, “The only ones able to beat Discord, are ghost, high level gods, and the Elements of Harmony.”

“Would you like to see the footage?” Hodgepodge asked, raising an eyebrow.

The Gengar still shaking, nodded, “oh yess, please show mee, I can use a goood laugh.”

Snapping his claws, he conjured up a projector screen, the projection coming straight out of his eyes. “As you can see, I clearly wiped the floor with him.”

Alfred stuttered a bit, “but-but how? I only of one being who beat Discord, and he’s dead.” Alfred sighed in defeat, “Oh well, it must mean you're world’s Discord isn't strong like ours.”

Tomas turned towards Hodgepodge, “Ignore him, he holds Discord in a high pedestal.”

“It’s ok, haters gonna hate,” he said pausing as the Omnitrix starts to flash red. “ Well, looks like my time is up, it was nice meeting you all.” he said, vanishing in a flash of red, only to be replaced by Jason.

“Gah... that always gives me such a headache...” he moaned, rubbing his head.

Tomas looked at Jason shocked, “You're a human!?”

“Yeah...” he said sitting up. “Imagine your skull is a box right?”

Suddenly a shadow stood over Jason, the shadow drooled on his shoulder, “Carni?”

Tomas started to panicked, “Wait Carnivine that’s not food!”

“I don’t want to turn around do I?” Jason asked, looking at Tomas.

Tomas gave him a sheepish grin, “Oh, don’t worry about him just move slowly, a fair warning though,  Carnivine’s diet is strictly carnivorous.”

“I know believe me,” Jason said, standing up, slowly. The Omnitrix chirped, passing its yellow light over Carnivine.

Carnivine tilted his head in confusion of the yellow light, “Carnivine?”

“uh, Carnivine why don’t you come over here, and give him some space.” Tomas asked, still a bit worried, however instead of just walking there, Carnivine jumped up, it’s maw wide open as bit down on Tomas’s head, “AHHH Carnivine! How many times must we go through this!”

“Holy crap, I didn’t think I’d ever see that in person.” Jason tried to hold in his laugh but soon was laughing his ass off.

“Why don’t you try getting bit by a Carnivine! Then we’ll see who’s laughing!” Tomas pulled Carnivine off, and put him back into his pokeball. “What am I going to do with you? You’re almost as bad as Victreebel.”

“Ok... so... I take it I’m the first other Displaced you guys have met right?” Jason asked, clearing his throat.

“Displaced? What’s that?” Meowth asked.

“You guys were normal people until you bought something from a shady guy at a con and you found yourselves here as Jesse and James correct?” he asked Tomas and Sarah.

“Uhh, yeah, we didn’t think there were any others.” Tomas looked at Sarah, both a bit bothered at the memory of their first arrival to equestria and the merchant.

“Oh there are a ton of us,” Jason said shaking his head. “Collectively we’re known as the Displaced, humans who are sent to Equestria with powers we didn’t have before.”

Meowth jumped in between Sarah and Tomas, “Wait so do you all end up in a different version of Equestria?”

“For the most part...my Equestria has three other Displaced but they were there before I got there.”

“So you can end up in a different time lines as well?” Meowth started to look even more interested.

“That reminds me, what was the last major event that happened here?”

Tomas started to think back to a few days ago, “I say, when Discord was released from his stone prison, then again I do remember seeing a whole bunch of ponies chasing a stuff doll, probably a ‘want it need it spell’.”

“Dear god.... you guys are way behind me,” Jason said rather shocked. “The Crystal Empire hasn’t even returned yet...”

“The Crystal Empire, heh, never thought I hear about that again.” Tomas said, with a dark look.

“Yup, it returned sometime after Discord’s,”

Sarah looked at Tomas, with a serious look, “You think ‘he’ will return too?”

“*Sigh* I hope not.”

“I recall Fluttershy reforming Discord sometime after that....”Jason said before realizing his error, “Crap...”

“HUH!?”

Meowth started panicking, “Discord, being reformed by the element of Kindness!?”

Screwball joined with an excited smile, “Does this mean Daddy is coming home?”

“Ok woah,” Jason put his hands up,” All of you just calm down.”

Meowth glared at Jason, “Calm down!? Discord going to be brainwashed to the enemy’s side!”

“Wait what?” Jason asked blinking. “Fluttershy didn’t brainwash Discord.”

The room darkened as the Gengar from earlier appeared, “Then whyyy is Discord siding with the enemyyy!”

“Because my Discord realized how much of a jerk he was, making everyone miserable. Plus, he understood he was upsetting the balance.”

The Gengar rolled his eyes, “Balance- shlamance, well I for one am not going to allow that to happen here!” Alfred turned towards Tomas, “The deal has changed! I no longer want the soul of Princess Luna or Celestia’s, I want Fluttershy's!”

“What? What the hell is this about souls?” Jason asked, his eyes going wide.

Sarah turned towards Jason, “Look I don’t know how your Princess Luna or Celestia are, but here they murdered my brother’s most beloved Pokémon, and we’re not going to let that go unpunished.”

“Ok.” Jason said taking a breath. ”Look, why don’t we just go talk to them ok?” he asked, looking between them. ”No fighting, no soul stealing. We just go up there and talk.”

Meowth growled in annoyance. “They lost their chance to explain themselves 1000 years ago, now the time for action!”

Jason sighed, shaking his head. “Look, my Equestria just experienced a nation wide genocide about two months back. Thousands died. What I’m asking you to do is to simply sit down with them and talk. No violence, no bloodshed, just words.”

Alfred flew down in front Jason, “And give us a good reason why should we trust you? For all we know you could’ve been sent here by the princesses to capture us!”

“If I was, I would have already done so.”

Sarah glared at Jason, “And how do you know that our Celestia and Luna won’t attack you?”

“I don’t, if you two are the only humans here, they’ll probably think I’m with you.”

Alfred flew towards Meowth and whispered something into his ear, “Alright Jason, we’ll go with you, and we won’t attack them.”

“Thank you,” he said getting up, sighing a little. “Look, I know you're angry but, I don’t think you’ve ever actually killed someone.”

Sarah huffed, “Speak for yourself, I’ve sent more griffons to their death’s during the great war.”

Meowth shivered, “Or had Seviper eat them.”

“Heh... got me there, but did you actually do it yourself? Did you pick up a sword, look into their eyes and take their life?”

All of them stood silent, knowing he was right. “No, I guess we didn’t.”

“I did, I suggest you never do, it doesn’t leave you,” he said shaking his head, walking toward the exit.

They looked at each other and followed Jason towards the exit.

Jason looked back at the others as they neared Canterlot. “Leave the ponies to me, I got this ok?”

Sarah nodded, “alright.”

He took a breath, walking into the city. He spotted a guard, moving over to him,” Yo,” he called, holding his hands up.

The guard eye’s widened, “Ha-Halt!” The guard looked around him, trying to find any other guard that was around.

“Look just calm down ok?” he asked softly. “All you need to do is take me and my friends to the princesses.” he gestured to the others, giving a smile.

“TEAM ROCKET!!!” The guard ran towards the direction of the castle, trying warn any other guard around.

“It can never be easy can it?” he asked, shaking his head. “Time for plan B. Omnitrix Star Dust.” he said, shifting into his alicorn form.

“What are you going to do in that form?” Meowth asked, a bit confused.

“Teleport,” he said lighting his horn up, teleporting them into the throne room. Jason staggered a little, shaking his head. “Stupid feedback....”

The sound of glass shattering echoed through the walls, Celestia stood wide eyed at the scene before her, a tea cup shattered across the floor.

“Oh hey Celestia,” Jason said waving at her. “I hope this isn’t a bad time...”

Suddenly the door burst opened and came in two guards and one white pony wearing a captain’s uniform. “Princess is there anything wrong?” Instantly his eyes went over to Sarah’s, “YOU!?”

Meowth smirked, “Well, well, well, if it isn’t the pretty boy, we beat up last time! Came back for round two?”

“Ok,” Jason said reverting to normal,” All of you just calm down. Their just here to talk to the princesses.”

Shining Armor snorted, “Yeah right.” Shining stomped his hooves, “guards seize them!”

“I order you all as a prince of Equestria to stand down.” Jason said, crossing his arms.

Everyone at the throne room stood silent, eventually Celestia was the one to speak up, “Prince?”

“Yes,” he said nodding his head. “I’m from a Equestria rather different from this one. In my world, my Celestia crowned me prince.”

Shining Armor snorted, “And how do we know you aren’t lying!”

Jason rolled his eyes, reaching into his pocket. He lifted a black crown out of it, inlaid with several emeralds. “Catch,” he said, tossing it toward Celestia.

Celestia levitated the crown towards her, “Guards stand down.” the guards looked at Celestia shocked, but before any of them could talk, Celestia raised a hoof, “I want to hear them out.”

“Thank you,” Jason said with a sigh of relief, “Look, I don’t think they're bad people, I just think they're angry. I’m just here to make sure no one does anything they'll regret later.”

Celestia nodded, “alright, but what exactly is it that you came here for, besides making sure that no tries to attack each other,” Celestia looked at Team Rocket sadly, “I’m sure they have told you that they would rather kill us more than anything.”

“They did,” Jason said. “I just want you all to talk this out. They say you killed one of Tomas's pokemon.” he said, sitting on the floor. “Work it out.”

Celestia looked at Team Rocket wide eyed, Sarah was glaring straight at her, while Tomas just had a blank expression, Meowth however had an unusually large smirk, but before Celestia could talk, Tomas interrupted her, “I want to hear it from her, not from you.”

Celestia simply nodded and turned towards the two guards, “Go get my sister, and bring her here.”

After several minutes of waiting, Luna had appeared in a flash of light, “Sister we had received thou’s message.” Luna saw Team Rocket, and instantly got into a fighting position. “What are they doing here.” Luna asked a bit fearfully.

“I want to hear your side of the story, the reason why you betrayed me, us! The reason why you betrayed Chimecho!”

Luna looked at Tomas, shocked and ashamed, “I never meant to betray you…” Luna whispered almost inaudibly.

Meowth smirked, “Sorry Princess, but i couldn’t hear you?” Meowth put a paw over his ear, “could you speak a little louder?”

“I said I never wanted to BETRAY YOU!” Luna yelled, everyone backpedaled in shock, “It wasn’t my fault, ever since the death of the phantom king, I’ve been hearing whispering, telling me lies! and telling me to do things! Sometimes I would have blackouts, and then wake up, with no memory of what i did!” Luna took a few calming breaths, “After the death of Quick Wind, I knew you were in a vulnerable state and they did too! And after my latest blackout I found out that my body was being possessed by a ghost type Pokemon, but it was too late and...and.. the deed was already done, imprisoning you three to stone was one of the hardest things that have ever happened to me.” Celestia walked down and embraced her, “After your imprisonment, the voices became stronger, I no longer had blackouts, instead I embraced the power’s of the Phantom! It turned me into something…. something I don’t want any part of anymore.”    

Team Rocket stood shocked at the outburst and stood there silent, trying to see if she was lying or if there were any traps, but there weren't.

“Well hell... thats rather heavy...” Jason said, his eyes wide from Luna’s outburst.

No one noticed Meowth’s shadow becoming distorted, “You're lying! You have to be.” Meowth looked around wide eyed trying to see if it would spark any reaction, “Right?” Meowth looked around  desperate for any kind of approval that he’s right, and that the princesses were lying.

Tomas looked at Meowth, “I- I don’t know.”

The room darkened and in a burst of flames came a rather upset looking Gengar, “Oof coursee shee’s lying, shee haass too be!” Gengar looked at Meowth, “You know this don’t youu?”

“I don’t think she is,” Jason said, getting up. He moved toward the Gengar, the Omnitrix chirping as it scanned him.” Nightmare Moon is something that nearly ruined Luna’s life.”

Alfred’s voice was no longer cheerful and dopey, it was now distorted and full of rage, “And it clearly didn’t! It should have destroyed her life, so that the Rocket’s would bow to ME! IT SHOULD HAVE ALLOWED ME TO GAIN THE ROCKET’S TRUST SO THAT I COULD USE THEIR POWER TO TAKE THE THRONE!!!” Alfred started to breath heavily, having release all the pent up frustration since coming to the castle, instantly realising what slipped out of his mouth, shrunk, “Oh, no.”

“Are all villains really this stupid?” Jason asked rolling his eyes. “You should probably flee now dude.”

The Gengar realising his mistake teleported back to the Everfree, his distorted voice echoed through the walls, “I SWEAR TO YOU ALL, THIS WON’T BE THE LAST YOU SEE ME!! THE PHANTOM KING WILL RISE AGAIN!!!”

“Well.... I’m glad that worked out?” Jason asked, turning to them, rubbing his neck. “I think.”

Meowth looked at the spot Alfred was rather sadly, “Alfred tricked us?”

Wobbuffet nodded, “[I knew we couldn’t trust those ghost!]”

“Hey, at least you found out the truth,” Jason said, patting Meowth on the head.

“But- but…*sigh* I guess you're right.” Meowth sat down wondering if this was a dream.

Sarah turned towards Tomas, “Well, now what? We dedicated our lives to revenge, we never had a plan about what happens next,”

“If I may make a suggestion,” Jason spoke up, looking at the two. “Work with the ponies. This Phantom King is obviously a big deal, you’re all going to have to work together to stop him.”

Sarah let out a sad chuckle, “Just like old times, right Tomas? Tomas?” Sarah looked at her brother and saw that he was looking rather distraught, “Tomas are you alright?”

Tomas looked at his sister emotionlessly, “huh.. yeah...old times.”

Meowth jumped up towards him, “Yo, timmy, you alright?”

“Ya just need to think for a while.” Tomas sat down next to Wobbuffet and Screwball, both trying to console him.

“Oh!”Jason said, reaching into his pocket, pulling out a folder. “Here, you might find this useful.”

Sarah grabbed the folder with interest, “What’s this for?”

“It’s by a guy named Auric. Apparently Discord can use it to shield your universe from outside forces. Of course you can still summon other Displaced but other than that, no one else can get in.”

“First we’re going to have to convince Celestia to let him roam free.”

“She probably already has it planned. In my world she had him reformed after the Crystal Empire reappeared, though your timeline may play out differently.”

Celestia walked towards them, “Timeline? I’m assuming that your Equestria is ahead of us?”

“It is. Though if you're wondering, yes, your student did get her wings.” Jason said with a wink.

Meowth looked at Celestia shocked, “Another Alicorn!? Wait are we talking about that purple nerdy unicorn, who blasted us off last time!?”

“Meowth for all you know, I could be talking about Sunset Shimmer.”

Meowth looked at Jason confused, “Who’s Sunset Shimmer?”

“She’s another student of Celestia’s, at least thats what Twilight told me.”

“Yes she was, until she disappeared into the mirror world years ago.” Celestia added a bit glumly.

“Celestia, I want to warn you now, watch Cadence closely.”Jason said, looking into her eyes.

“Yes, of course.” Celestia soon became confused, “But why exactly?”

“I’m not going to give spoilers but for the sake of Equestria you best watch her, especially around the wedding.”

“Wedding? She didn’t tell me about a wedding?”

“You’ll find out...” Jason said shaking his head. “I should be getting home, I have a wedding I have to set up myself.”

Tomas finally stood up, “Thank you Jason, and if there is a way we can repay you, don’t hesitate to ask.”

“You're welcome,” Jason said with a smile, “Hey, you guys have tokens yet?”

“Well no, not yet, why?”

“Well you already have mine, you guys should give me yours, that way we can stay in touch.”

Meowth jumped up in excitement, “Hey guys I got the perfect idea of a token,” Meowth took out a golden charm that looked exactly like the one on his head. “I always kept an extra one around in case mines broke.” Meowth then took out a red marker, and drew a bold red ‘R’ on it, “All right, here it is!”

“That's actually a really cool Token,” Jason said with a smirk, taking it from Meowth. “Almost forgot, may I have my crown back Celestia?”

Celestia levitated the crown back to Jason. “Thank you Jason, for bringing my friends back.”

“Glad to help, I didn’t want another world to suffer needlessly. If you guys need help against this Phantom King just hit me up ok?”

  Tomas smiled, “count on it.”

  Screwball ran up to him teary eyed, “You’ll still be my brocle, right?”

“Of course Screwball.” he said kneeling down to give her a hug. ”You stay safe ok?” he asked, standing back up.

     Screwball nodded, “I promise!”

    “Alright Sarah, you summoned me, you gotta send me home. All you gotta do is say ‘Jason, our contract is complete"

    Sarah smiled and nodded, “Jason our contract is complete.”

     He smiled back vanishing in a flash of light, the Unitrix core taking his place.

    “AAAHHH!!!”

    Everyone turned towards Tomas wide-eyed, “What’s wrong!?”

    “I just remembered! I left Yamask in the Everfree Forest!”

Everfree Forest

Yamask’s location

    “Achoo!”

    The two Timberwolves turned back towards their leader, “[My lord are you all right?]”

    The black masked creature glared at them, “[Did I give you permission to talk?]”

    The Timberwolf realizing his mistake backpedaled, “[Forgive me my lord it was a accident!]”

    “[Too late! Execute him!]”

    The two guard wolves walked towards him, “[NO! PLEASE! I HAVE TWO SAPLINGS AND A THIRD ONE COMING!]”

The black creature scratched his chin, “[Hmmm… Family man huh?]” The timberwolf nodded desperately, “[hmmm…. alright then,]” the wolf’s face lit up in hope, “[20 years dungeon.]”

The hope was quickly turned into terror, “[Wha-what!?]”

“[40 years for talking back to me.]”

“[But I wasn’t even-]”

   Yamask slammed his fist onto his makeshift throne, “[THAT’S IT!!! I am tired of your sass, life in dungeon and if you keep that up it’ll be death!]”

   The wolf hung his head and simply left defeated towards the cage in the corner of the cave, Yamask took a sip of his drink and spit it out, “[URGH!!! This is disgusting, whoever made this should have his family killed and head chopped off!]”

    The two wolf guards turned back to him confused, “[uuhh… You made it sire.]”

    “[I knew that! I was testing you and you failed, life in prison!]”

    The two wolfs groaned and went inside the cage, joining the other Timberwolves. Yamask took another sip of his drink, humming in approval, “[mmm...delicious,]” Yamask looked around the cave and noticed that already all of the Timberwolves were in cages,  “[It’s good to be king.]”

Ch.15- Dog Days

The Dark Mines

 

"Man I hate ponies!"

A second more feminine voice chimed in, "Ya! With them coming down here in our territory, thinking that just because they can use magic, they own the place!"

First voice started to speak again, "And don't even get me started on that weird minotaur-like girl and her magic monsters!"

"And that shape shifter!" The two voices snickered, "did you see how he gave Sarabii a scare!" The two started to laugh. The two voices crawled out of large rock, revealing them to be two Diamond Dogs. The larger one wore a thick-lensed glasses, along with a green vest with a black stripe at the back of the vest. The smaller dog obviously a female, unlike most Diamond Dogs she had light tan fur instead of the average dark brown or a light grey, she wore a dark green vest six black spots on the back of her vest creating a 'V' shape, the female dog had her forelock covering her left eye.

The larger dog stopped laughing and turned towards his partner with a worried expression, "Hey Manzi, what are we going to tell the boss, we didn't come back with the filly or the gems she stole. Tartarus we'll be lucky if she cuts our meals for this."

'Manzi' turned towards the large dog and scoffed, "Is that what's eating you up?" Upon seeing her friends baffled expression she continued, "Look Rolf, we tell her the truth, Sarabii chickened out, we don't get in trouble, or have our food ration cut in half, simple."

Rolf glared at her, "Yeah, except for the part where Sarabii gets in trouble, WE were part of his hunting group, so the blame goes to all of us!"

"*Groan* Fine, what do you suppose we do?"

"Well what I think-!" Rolf stopped suddenly going stiff, "Hey Manzi?"

"yup?"

"Where's Jay?"

Manzi started to choke on a small gem she was eating, "What do you mean? You lost him!?"

"No, I thought you were supposed to take care of him!?"

Manzi glared at Rolf, "WHAT!? Your blaming me!?"

"Well you supposed to take care of him!"

"Was not!"

"Was too!"

"NOT!"

"TOO!"

"ENOUGH!!!"

Rolf and Manzi stiffened at the sound of the loud yell, hesitantly the two looked up to see Sarabii, the Diamond Dog hunting leader. "Why are you fighting! We should be in Mistresses throne room, you know, after your failure."

"whoa, whoa, whoa." Manzi looked at Sarabii in the eye, "you're blaming us?" Sarabii nodded, "for what!? You chickened out against the tiger thing not us!"

"Hunting pack should have help. But you did not. You watched."

"Like tartarus I was going to fight against a shape-shifting tiger!"

"BARK BARK!" The three Diamond Dogs looked towards the source of barking and saw a small Diamond Dog, it wore a lime green vest with one large black dot on it's back, the small dog had a black stripe on it's forehead, the dog had a derpy expression.

"JAY!!!" Manzi and Rolf hugged their younger sibling, "thank goodness your here!" Jay simply barked and licked his two siblings.

"I assume he belongs to you?"

Rolf turned to the source of the voice and shot up, saluting, "Lord Emerl, sir!" Upon hearing Rolf say his name, the two other Diamond Dogs stood stiff and saluted. The creature they were saluting was strangely not a Diamond Dog, instead he was a creature called a Sableye, unlike most of it's kind, his fur was a golden color instead of the normal purple, he had two large yellow gems for eyes, instead of two large blue ones.

He raised up his golden claw, "Calm down," as soon as he saw the three dogs relaxed, he spoke, "The Mistress is waiting for your report Sarabii, she has instructed me to retrieve you." The large dog tried to say something, but all he succeeded in doing was making some odd noises. Manzi giggled seeing her superior struggling, "And don't think she's forgotten about you Manzi, Rolf, if I'm not mistaken you two are part of Sarabii's hunting pack, so that makes you just as guilty as he is."  Manzi slumped and glared at Sarabii, who was grinning smugly at her.

Manzi growled at Sarabii, "shut it."

Canterlot Castle

"YO TOMAS!" Meowth declared as he slammed the door of their room open, a grin on his face. “ Tada!” he smiled, holding out a replica of his headcoin, there was a bold red 'R' in the front.

“Um... Meowth, why do you have the token we gave to Jason?” Tomas asked, having been startled by his entrance.

"Well, you know how we gave Jason our token in case he needed help, right?" Tomas nodded, "Well, I've been thinking, what if there are other Displaced like us? You know, ones who are being tricked into working for the bad guys? So I came up with this replica!"

Tomas looked skeptical, "Well what does Sarah think about this?"

"Actually we're okay with it."

Tomas looked at the door and saw Sarah and Wobbuffet walking in with a sleeping Screwball, "All we need to do is give a small speech, pour a bit of chaos magic and POOF! Other Displaced can now summon us!"

Tomas groaned, not feeling completely sure of the idea, "alright, just be careful."

Meowth jumped up in excitement, "All right!"

Tomas grabbed the token and turned towards Sarah, "Alright here goes nothing,"

"We are Destruction, Passion, and Wisdom. We do not care for if you are good or evil, as long as your reasoning is just, and if you simply kill just for the fun of it, then we're sure that Seviper and Carnivine will enjoy a good meal. Call us, and we will make your enemies prepare for trouble and blast them off to the speed of light!"

Wobufeet jumped between them adding one last thing to the speech, "Wobbuffet!!!"

Sarah giggled at Wobuffet's antics, "Well now we send it," Sarah handed the token to Meowth, "do your thing."

Meowth took out a small yellow gem and pointed it at the token, yellow sparks of electricity started to envelope the gem and the token, "Aaaaand of you go!"

A bright light soon covered the whole room and in a few seconds the token disappeared. Tomas opened his eyes and saw that the token was gone, "Sooo.... What now?"

Sarah picked up the sleeping Screwball form Wobuffet's hands, "I was thinking me and Screwball could visit Discord, she has been wanting nothing but to be reunited with him for a while now."

Meowth nodded, "Well alright, see you at dinner, K?"

Sarah nodded and motioned Wobbuffet to come, "Oh and Tomas, Celestia wants to speak with you."

Ch.16- We're going to Ponyville again?

Canterlot Castle

Statue Garden

(Discord's POV)

Darkness. That's all there is. It taunts me. It mocks me. I've been stuck in this prison for a about one month now, and the celebration of my defeat since ended. But I've been doing some thinking since I was put back in here. Not about revenge, mind you.

Perhaps I've been going a bit too easy on them. But it isn't just that. I had been too cocky. Too arrogant. I was certain that my position as ruler of Equestria had been secured when Twilight had turned grey. But I was wrong. I truly had underestimated the "magic of friendship". I honestly did feel bad when she shed that tear and it formed into a broken heart, but I couldn't let my emotions get in the way of my conquest. I was too smart to allow that.

But I guess that could be debated now, because towards the end I let my arrogance get the better of me, and well, here I am, a garden decoration once more. Was this it? Had that been my last stand? I don't know, but being immortal has its perks, and eventually, I may be free once more. But it will be different. I'll plan ahead. They won't get the best of me again, I won't allow it. I had been too cocky to notice the bearers represented their elements once again, and it cost me. Big time. Maybe I can get Alfred to lend me some ghost types?

What made her so special anyways? How had she so easily broken free of my influence. Nopony had ever succeeded at doing that until she did it. But I was too foolish to notice until it was far too late. So, once again, here I am. Trapped in stone. This sucks. I wish something would happen, but everypony is too scared to visit me. I can't really blame them. The last time my statue had been visited, I had broken free, so why would anypony want to risk that again?

But that's just it. If nopony visits me, then there's no risk of me breaking out again, problem solved. But that was when I heard a noise I hadn't heard in so long. Hoof-steps. Had somepony finally worked up the courage to face me, or is it just my mind playing tricks on me? I still couldn't see, though I could hear, and I was certain I heard somepony clearing their throat.

"Hello Discord."

Come again? I swear I recognize that voice. Summoning what little magic I had, I used it to enhance my statue's eyesight. Blinking, mentally, my eyes focused onto...Sarah?

Sarah gave a small smile, "Hey Dissy, why the long face?"

.....Oh Faust that was bad

Sarah frowned, "Well then, to think you actually had a sense of humor."

I do have a sense of humor-! Hold on you can hear me!?

"Of course I can Dissy, you were the one who created a physic link between us." Suddenly a pink blob had appeared in front of Discord, blocking his sight.

"HIYA DADDY!!!"

That voice, "Screwball?"

The pink blur jumped into the arms of Sarah and giggled, "Yup! It's me daddy, and you won't believe the day we just had!"

Screwball... my abomination, she was okay. She was still okay! Oh how I wish I wasn't bound to this stone imprisonment. Is she still talking? Guess I should be paying attention, I can wallow in misery later.

"And then he transformed into a draconequus, and became my new Uncle! Brother! Um.... Brocle!"

"Another draconequess?" If I wasn't still trapped in stone, I'm sure my jaw would've dropped from that piece of information.

Sarah smiled knowingly, "Perhaps this will clear things up." Reaching behind her, she took out a large purple flower, the flower appeared to be made up of crystals.

"A Time Flower!?" How is that possible, Time Flowers don't exist in Equestria, only in the Crystal Empire, and that's been gone for years.

As if reading my mind, she answered, "I picked it before the empire disappeared, I kept it just in case I wanted to remember something."

I already had a feeling of what the memory was, but I didn't want to embarrass my only means of freedom, "So are you going to show me..... what ever Screwy said about a Draconequess ?"

"And a little more......" Sarah's eyes begun to fill up with tears, my heart clenched.

"What happened?"

"I think it's better to show you...."

(Tomas P.O.V.)

"You want us to WHAT!?"

The two guards besides Celestia growled at my lack of respect towards Celestia, though I can care less. Raising a hoof, she silence the two guards, "Tomas I simply want you and your team to go back to Ponyville, right along with Luna."

I gritted my teeth in frustration, "Celestia, we've been there before, and in case you forgot we ATTACKED THE PLACE NOT EVEN THREE WEEKS AGO!!!"

"How dare you talk that way to the princess!-"

"Shinning Armor, if you can't keep calm in this meeting, then I suggest you leave."

Shinning growled in frustration, but settled to glaring at Tomas through out the meeting.

Ignoring Armor, I continued,  "Look Celestia, I doubt that the ponies will be so forgiving for our attacks,"  

Celestia nodded and looked outside, following her gaze, we watch Luna beginning to raise the moon, "She still blames herself for the what happened," Hearing my silence, she continued, "I figured that this trip could be the perfect time for you five to get reacquainted, especially with Nightmare Night coming,"

"Nightmare Night?"

"It's a holiday that sprang up during yours and Luna's imprisonment."

'What?' "Luna was imprisoned?"

Celestia nodded sadly, "It's a long story."

"*Sigh* Fine I'll go," getting up from the my seat, I turned around and plucked Meowth from the two maids, "We're leaving."

Meowth struggled, not wanting to leave, "*Groan* Fine but at least put me down!" Ignoring the two shocked maids, I dropped Meowth, creating a loud thud. "Hey! Ya jerk!"

(??????)

"DiScOrD......LuNa.....CeLeStIa.....

CeLeStIa

.....CeLeStIa!

.....CELESTIA!!!!"  

"Angel Bunny, what's wrong?"

Fluttershy stared down at the frightened bunny, who refused to meet her gaze, "Are you hurt?" hesitantly, she reached out a hoof to calm the bunny, however as soon as she was at arms length, the bunny bolted and ran towards the large crowd of animals, "What's wrong with all of you?" She cried, noticing that all of the animals were shivering in fear.

"RRRRAAAAGGHHHHH!!!!"

Snapping her attention towards the Everfree, she began to quiver, "W-What w-was that?" As if to answer her question, two large red eyes snapped opened behind the trees. Before she even had the chance to scream, a loud gurgled screech echoed form the forest.

"CELESTIAAA!!!"

Ch.17- Nightmare Night & Dragons

Canterlot Castle

(Tomas P.OV.)

Tomas and Meowth walked down the hallway, ignoring all the glares they were receiving from the guards, “Man, these guys need to learn how to lighten up.”

Tomas ignored Meowth, his gaze wandered to the stain glass window, stopping mid-step, he gazed at the window the image showed a dark blue alicorn, the element bearers surrounding her. “Is that what happened to Luna?”

Meowth looked at the window and sighed, “probably, Celestia did say that she was imprisoned like us,” looking at the window more closely, he growled, “HEY! That’s the nerdy unicorn, who blasted us of!”

Turning to what Meowth was pointing at, he chuckled, “Yup, no doubt about it, I guess that explains how she was able to defeat the Robocord.”

At the sound of someone clearing their throat, both Meowth and Tomas turned and saw a dark colored guard, the guard had a pair of bat wings, and wore a blue colored armor, signifying his role as a Lunar guard. “The princess asked me to escort you.”

“*sigh* Looks like sight seeing will have to wait another time.”

Following the Lunar guard, they saw Sarah and Screwball there already waiting for them, but the thing that caught their attention the most was the black chariot, two bat ponies already ready to take off, “Hello Sir Tomas, Sir Meowth.”

Tomas clenched his fist at the sound of her voice, but reminded himself of what happened, “Hello Princess Luna.”

Ignoring the hurt look in her eyes, the five of them entered the chariot and took off, Sarah turned towards her brother looking worried, “Tomas how do feel?”

Smirking at the two bat pony guards, he answered, “Well Sarah, I guess you can say I’m feeling pretty ’Baty’.”

“OH HA HA HA!! LIKE I HAVEN’T HEARD THAT ONE BEFORE!!!”

Besides the two upset guards, and occasional pun, the trip was mostly kept in silence. Finally arriving near Ponyville, Tomas wasn’t surprised that the ponies ran away from them, what did surprised Tomas was that they avoided Luna as well, even the foals scream in fear.

Tomas looked at the heartbroken Luna and couldn’t help but wonder what she did to get such a negative response from the them. Turning towards Sarah and Meowth, he handed them each a Chaos Gem, “Incase anyone attacks us come and find me.” Before they could protest he silently walked away.

“Uncle Tomas wait!”

Looking behind him, he suddenly found himself tackled to the floor by a worried filly, “Screwball what are you doing here?”

Screwball looked up at Tomas, tears in her eyes, “I was worried, you looked so sad.” Instantly her expression began to brighten, “So I decided to come with you, to keep you company!”

Knowing that he wouldn’t be able to get the filly to leave, he smiled, “ Alright but try to keep up with me, okay?”

The filly nodded her head, “ Soooo, where are we going?”

“I don’t know, just going to take a walk.”

Screwball nodded, content with the answer, instantly her eyes fell onto a shining object near the bushes.

“Screwball where are you going?”

Ignoring her uncle’s call, she continued her advancement towards the shining object, “Hey, uncle Tomas, look what I found!”

Running to catch up to Screwball, his attention was caught by the object on the floor, “Dice?” Picking up the six sided die, he began to notice the galaxy like decoration on it. “Who would leave something like this here?”

“Hey! Who’s there?!” a voice said. “You summoning me or what?”

Tomas nearly dropped the dice in shock, taking a few moments to recompose himself, he looked at the dice more closely, “Is this a displaced token?”

“You know it buddy,” the voice said. “And I can hear you. So, if you’re gonna summon me, just roll the die.”

Screwball gasped in excitement, “Another hooman! Come on uncle Tomas, roll the dice! Roll the dice!”

“Screwball you can’t just-!”

“Booo! Roll the dice! Roll the dice!”

Knowing he had no way out this he shook the dice and rolled it across the floor.

A portal opened up and out popped what looked like an extremely pale, white haired elf in leather garments. It had a long sword strapped to its side, a bow and quiver on its back, and a bandolier full of vials with a knife strapped to it.

“Sup,” it said in a masculine voice. “You the guy that summoned me?”

“ummm.. Yeah that’s me.”

“What’s your name kid?” he said.

“I’m Tomas, and this-,” He pointed at the silent filly next to him, “-is Screwball. So what’s yours?”

“I’m Dox,” he said. “And hold up, did you say Screwball? As in daughter of Discord, Screwball? That silly filly?”

Screwball puff out her chest, looking rather smug, “Yeah, that’s me, you heard of me?” Screwball said, trying to pull of a cool act.

“Yeah, but only in rumor,” Dox said. “Ya know, you’re the only one I’ve seen in any of the universes I’ve been to. Granted, that hasn’t been many, but still, there’s one thing I’ve always wanted to do.”

Screwball looked up at him, curiously, “What’s that?”

“This!” he yelled before tackling Screwball and then proceeding to give her a light hearted noogie.

“AHHH!!! NO! STOP!” Screwball yelled, trying not to laugh and hide her embarrassment. “Noooo!”

“I ain’t letting you go ‘til I see a smile!” he declared while continuing his assault. “Now, who’s a silly filly?”

“Nooo, I’m not silly, I’m awesome!” Screwball tried to struggle.

“If you say so,” Dox said, finally letting go of Screwball. He turned to Tomas before saying, “So, why’d you summon me? You just want to talk, or is something up? Also, where the hell are we?”

“Well, Screwball here was the one who wanted to summon you, and we’re somewhere outside Ponyville,” Turning towards Ponyville, he saw Princess Luna walking away from Ponyville, a certain purple mare following her. “ I guess you can say somethings up.”

“I see,” Dox said. “So this world is on that episode…” He started looking pensive. “You know, there’s something we can do.”

Tomas looked at Dox curiously, “hmm?”

“Well, you summoned me, meaning the ponies don’t know me well,” he said. “I could help Luna get a better reputation. But…. that leads me to a question. What’s your standing with the ponies? I mean, so far I’ve met those with good standing, and the last guy was kinda iffy with his.”

“The ponies fear us, and our Pokemon,” Tomas sighed and looked away from Ponyville, “ Don’t blame them, we did attack their village a few weeks ago, kidnapped a few fillies as hostages.” He clenched his fist in anger, “and it was his fault! He tricked us! After we trusted him! It’s true what they say, ‘never trust a ghost’.”

“Well, I can’t say it’s your fault,” Dox said. “I mean, look at Hamlet. Ghosts are jerks. Anyways, I’m pretty sure my plan can help you out, too.”

“What’s your plan?”

“Well, I’m keeping most of it as a surprise,” he said. “But, before I enact it, what type of pokemon do you have?”

“I have a Victreebel, Carnivine, Weezing, Mime Jr., Arcanine, Cacnea, Yamask, Amoongus, Inkay,” Tomas tapped his chin, “I know I have one more, Oh yeah! Gyarados!”

“Gyarados?!” Dox said. “Dang son…. Wait a sec. Aren’t those the same pokemon as James from Team Rocket?”

Tomas shrugged, “Yeah, well I did sort of become James, when I entered Equestria.”

“So wait,” he said. “Is there a Jessie here, too? And maybe a Meowth?”

Tomas smiled, “My sister came here as Jessie, and our Meowth plush came to life when we got here. So yeah, we became the Team Rocket Trio!”

“Coolio,” Dox said. “So, now to enact my plan. I’m gonna need you to go running off for Ponyville. Tell your sister that I’m going to fake an attack. Once you’re done with that, contact me through the die, then go run and find Luna. And don’t worry, I can take a few hits.” -he pointed to the vails on his bandolier- “I mean, I have these for a reason.”

“Yeah, that could actually work!” Tomas grabbed two pokeballs and threw them out, summoning out a Yamask and Inkay, “Alright you two go find Sarah and Luna and bring them to me.” The two pokemon nodded and flew off.

“Alright,” he said before walking over and picking up Screwball. “Now I’m going to need you to run while I pretend to hold this little filly hostage.”

“Alright then,” Tomas stopped mid step, “Oh and before I forget, If my sister summons out her Arbok, please be careful how you act around her, she could mistake your actions as a sign of you wanting to mate.” Tomas finished with a blush.

“What,” Dox said, absolutely stupefied. “How?... Just how? I mean, that’s honestly a good warning, keeps me from shifting to a form like a snake, but still. HOW?”

“My sister’s Arbok is very lonely, and she has been wanting to have a child for some time now,” Tomas started to laugh, “I remember when Arbok kidnapped a guard just because he complemented her.” He then started to shift around nervously, “Also I had to find that out the hard way, I’m just glad that Celestia found me before Arbok could continue on further.”

“Wow,” He said. “Ya know, I think I know something to leave you with. But anyways, you might want to run. Now.”

Right after Dox said that, as his body started to become lit in a pale green fire. He then started changing shape, growing in size and width. When it was over, a large dragon stood over Tomas, still cradling the small filly known as Screwball.

“Man,” the dragon that was once Dox said in a gravelly voice. “I’ve always wanted to do that!”

“Terrifying, well I’ll see you there.” Tomas started to run towards Ponyville, Luna, Twilight, Meowth,  and Sarah already in front of the small village.

“So you’re sure this plan of his is going to work?” Sarah looked at her brother worriedly.

“We have to agree with Sarah, this plan seems rather dangerous.” Luna looked around nervously.

Tomas waved off their concerns, “please have some fate, alright so you four go to Ponyville and wait for my signal.”

The Sarah and Meowth nodded along with the two ponies. After making sure that they were in a far enough distance, Tomas started to take some deep breaths, eyes full of determination, he ran towards Ponyville and started yelling, “Dragon! There’s a dragon coming to Ponyville!”

A dragon roared out as it glided over the skies and into the town square, perching itself on top of the town hall. It roared out again with fire breath before speaking. “I am going to burn this village to the ground! How dare you forsake my original nest!”

“THOU SHALT DO NO SUCH THING YOU BEAST!!!” Suddenly a bright flash of light appeared, and from it stood Luna, looking determine, “THOU WILL NOT HARM OUR CITIZENS YOU FOUL BEAST!!!”

“YOU CANNOT STOP ME!” the dragon shouted. “I HAVE BEEN ALIVE FOR AGES! I HAVE BURNED DOWN COUNTLESS VILLAGES! THIS VILLAGE SHALL HAVE THE SAME FATE AS THE REST!” The dragon then breathed fire at Luna.

Suddenly a large blue blob appeared in front of Luna, taking the blast instead, “WOBBUFFET USE MIRROR COAT!” Wobbuffet’s body was covered in a white aura, and the blast was redirected to the dragon, the blast being twice as big than it was before.

The dragon recoiled from having it’s own fire being used against it. It leapt at Wobbuffet in an attempt to slash it, only to have it’s attacks bounce off.

Sarah walked up behind Wobbuffet and laughed, “ You should have retreated while you had the chance.”

Tomas walked up standing next to his sister, “And know you’ll have to pay the price.”

Sarah struck a pose, her arms outstretch, “Floating on the wind.”

“Past the stars!”

Meowth jumped in landing between the two, “In your ears!”

“Bringing Chaos in a breakneck pace.”

“Dashing fear, and putting hope in it’s place!”

“A rose, by any other name just as dangerous!”

“When everything fixed, our work is complete!”

“JESSIE!”

“JAMES!”

“AND MEOWTH ARE THE NAMES!”

“Putting the evildoers in their place.”

“Team Rocket!”

“We’re in your face!”

Wobbuffet saluted, “WOBBUFFET!”

A popping sound echoed, and another pokemon appeared. “MIME, MIME!”

“No matter,” the dragon said, taking another swipe at the Wobbuffet and getting the same effect. “Strange bipeds or no, you shall perish all the same!”

Sarah took out pokeball and grinned, “Arbok your up!” In a flash of light a tall purple cobra appeared, “Arbok use poison sting!” Arbok opened her mouth, firing a barrage of poisonous needles.

The dragon took the needles full force and staggered backwards a few steps. It recovered quickly, however and attempted to breathe fire on the serpent.

“Arbok, use dig!” The cobra raised it’s body, before plunging itself underground, causing the flames to miss.

“YOU IRRITATING SERPENT!” the dragon screamed before redirecting its gaze towards the two humans and the Meowth. “IF THE SERPENT IS GONE, THEN I GUESS THAT YOU’D BE MY TARGET INSTEAD!” The dragon then breathed fire at the trainers.

“WEEZING, SHOW HIM WHAT A REAL FLAMETHROWER LOOKS LIKE!!” Tossing a pokeball, a two headed ball of gas emerged, yelling out his name, Weezing took a deep breath before releasing a torrent of flames, the two flames collided before dispersing.

Suddenly the floor beneath the dragon started to shake, and a familiar cobra appeared, slamming her body onto the dragon’s chest. Arbok opened it’s mouth firing another barrage of poison stings.

“HOW DARE YOU VILE SERPENT!” the dragon screamed before slashing at Arbok.

“Weezing!” Weezing flew towards Arbok, catching her before she could hit the ground. “[Are you alright?]”`

Arbok shook her head, “Charbok, [Yeah, the drake just got lucky.]” Arbok turned towards the dragon and sighed, “Arboo… [Still the attack did sting, I’ll have to get him back for it.]” Opening it’s mouth, she fired a barrage of brown sludge at the dragon. Weezing, taking a deep breath, shot a Shadow Ball at him. The Shadow Ball impacted the dragon and knocked it back considerably.

“You cannot defeat me with such puny attacks,” the dragon said before charging and knocking back Weezing and Arbok. “Your strange creatures are nothing compared to me!”

“THEN TRY TO TAKE ON OUR MIGHT!” Luna flew up towards the dragon and shot a large blast at the dragon. “TASTE OUR WRAITH YOU FIEND!!!”

The dragon took the blast full force and screamed out in pain before exploding into shadow stuff. Some ponies could have sworn they saw the dragon smile as it was blasted into oblivion.

Some of the ponies came out of their hiding spots and looked around for any signs of the dragon, slowly the walked towards Luna and Team Rocket. Twilight suddenly ran up to the four of them, “Princess!” Twilight stopped and looked at them frantically, “Are you okay?! Is anypony hurt?!”

Luna raised her hoof, silencing Twilight, “Breath friend, it is alright, the dragon has been dealt with!” Turning towards the rest of the ponies, she yelled, “CITIZENS, WITH OUR COMBINED MIGHT, WE HAVE BESTED THE DRAKE, YOU ARE ALL SAFE!” Soon all of the ponies started cheering and crowded around the four of them, shouting out ‘thank you’ and ‘sorry’.

Sarah turned towards Tomas worried, ignoring all of the chanting, “Where’s Screwball?”

“She’s right here,” said Dox, walking out from behind some buildings and holding Screwball. The ponies were a bit frightened by his appearance, but he quieted them by stating, “The dragon had a hostage held up in the woods. It even set some of the woods on fire. Team Rocket summoned me to help out with that while they dealt with the dragon.”

The ponies began to cheer again, causing Meowth to clench his ears, trying to block out the sounds. After a few ‘thank you’s’ the ponies started to go back to the stalls, continuing their Nightmare Night, despite the events that took place a few minutes ago.

While Luna took of with Screwball to play some games, Team Rocket stayed behind watching them have fun. Sarah turned towards Dox and smiled, “Sorry if Arbok or Wobbuffet hurt you in the fight.”

“Oh, trust me, they did,” Dox said calmly. “It hurt like crazy, but luckily, I have potions. Oh, and can pull out Arbok again? I kinda need to apologize for what I said.”

Sarah looked at Dox oddly before taking out Arbok’s pokeball, “Hope you know what you're doing, Arbok come on out!” In an explosion of light Arbok appeared, yelling out her name.

“Hey Arbok,” Dox said before getting pounced and ultimately constricted by her. “Listen, I know you’re angry, but I’m sorry. I had to say those things to make the ponies believe I was an actual threat!” Arbok continued to constrict around Dox. “Listen, if you can let me go, I think I know how to make it up to you.”

Arbok glared at Dox for a moment, before slithering off of him, “Charbokk, [Make it quick.]”

 

“Okay then,” Dox said before raising a hand, obviously holding something. “Okay, big guy, you’re up.”

When Dox opened his hand, several different dice floated out and started circling around Arbok. As they circled, they started glowing. The more they circled around her, the faster and the brighter they got. It came to the point that the dice had become nothing more than just huge circles of light orbiting Arbok.

“Uncle Tomas! Mama Sarah! Uncle Meowth!” Turning towards the sound of the yelling, they saw Screwball running towards them, a teddy bear on her back, “Look what I got! Isn’t it cute!”

“Wait!” Dox screamed. “Don’t enter the circle!”

“Huh?” Screwball looked at Dox confused, but showed no signs of slowing down.

When she entered the circle, there was an explosion of light and sound and dust kicked up. When the dust settled, Arbok stood there next to a dust covered Screwball. While the others looked on in relief, Dox started panicking like crazy.

“Oh no,” he said. “Oh no no no no no! This isn’t good. In fact, this could be monumentally bad.”

Sarah ran up to Screwball, franticly looking through her pockets before taking out a small red gem, the gem glowed and produced a towel, a bucket of water next to it. Sarah glared at Dox, “If you did anything to my daughter, then I’ll make sure a angry Arbok, would be the least of your problems!”

“Please,” Dox said. “I already know something happened. I’m really sorry. Listen, I was trying to duplicate Arbok so I could give her a mate. Neither I or the big guy expected for Screwball to come running in. Me and him are very sorry. What ever happened to her, I take full responsibility, and I’m sorry.”

“Mo-Mom.”

Sarah stared wide eyed at Screwball, “What’s wrong?!”

“I feel funny,” Before Sarah could say anything, a torrent of fire erupted from her mouth, instantly burning everyone around her.

“Again, I’m really sorry,” Dox said. “I was only trying to help Arbok, not splice Screwball’s DNA.”

Arbok stared wide-eyed at Dox, tears threatening to escape her eyes, “Charrr? [you were trying to get me a mate?]”

“Yes,” Dox said. “I’m sorry that I failed.”

Arboks expression started to lighten up, gaining a large smile, she pounced Dox, wrapping herself around him, “Char! [No one has ever try to do something so thoughtful, I mean Sarah tried to get Seviper and Ditto to mate with me, but the two are completely uninterested!]” Arbok’s grin started to widen, “Charbok~ [But you were the only one to come so close, and you know what, I wouldn’t mind having you as a mate~]”

“And quite honestly,” Dox started, “Neither would I. But not right now, there are children present.”

Arbok purred, “Charrr~ [She’s going to learn about these kind of things anyways~ Why not introduce the topic a bit earlier~]”

“Because I have a world to go back to,” Dox said. “I promise, next time I come along, we can go run off and do that, but not right now. I’d at least like to take you to dinner first.”

Arbok leaned away from Dox with a shocked expression, “Ar? Charbok? [You mean you really do want to be my mate? You’re not just saying that so I can let you go?]”

“Of course not!” Dox retorted. “If it means I can help out a lovely lady, I’d be happy to. You are a beautiful pokemon. I don’t understand why the others won’t help you. You just have to promise that you’ll wait for me to come back.”

Arbok felt tears coming out of her eyes, leaning forward, she lightly bit his neck and licked it, adding her scent onto his, “Char~ [I promise, mate]”

“All right then,” Dox said before leaning towards Arbok’s face. He whispered to her, “I’ll be looking forward to seeing you again.”

Arbok slither off of Dox, a mild blush on her face, “Char, [come back soon.]”

“I promise, m’lady,” Dox said, getting up. “Okay, I think I’m ready to go now, Tomas.”

Tomas staring at the scene wide-eyed, simply nodded, “Yeah alright.”

Meowth jumped forwards, landing on Tomas’ back, “Hey Dox, you have our token?”

“No, but I can look for it,” Dox said. “What is it?”

Meowth pointed at his charm, “It looks like my charm, or head coin as some people call it, it also has a bold red ‘R’.”

“Ah, okay then,” Dox said. “I’ll keep an eye out for it. And hey, don’t hesitate to call me if you need me. Just gonna warn you though, don’t throw that thing at anyone. I’m warning you that it’ll end really badly for the person you hit.”

“I’ll keep that in mind, and don’t forget you can count on us, if you ever need help, okay!”

“Oh, don’t worry about that. I still have a promise to keep,” Dox stated. “You can send me back now.”

Tomas nodded, “Right, so I think it goes like this, ‘Dox, our contract is complete’?”

A portal opened up behind Dox. He just stood there and stated, “Yep. Bye!” -He turned towards Arbok- “I’ll be waiting for our next encounter!” And then Dox stepped through the portal and disappeared.

Arbok stared where the portal had been and sighed, “Arbok, [See you soon….Dox]”

Ch.18- Nightmarish aftermath

Ponyville

Nightmare Night

(Tomas POV)

"Thanks for letting us sleep here for the night Twilight."

Stepping in the library, I was immediately assaulted by the smell of old books and ink, looking around I saw books, books as far as the eye can see. "You live in a library?" I find it odd how I didn't notice before, especially with the sign outside.

Twilight looked back at me, sheepishly, "Yeah.... but don't worry there is enough room for you, the princess, and the rest of your team to sleep in."

'I doubt that...'

"Of course one of you is going to have to sleep on the floor, and the couch...."

'knew there wasn't going to be enough room.' Rubbing the back of my neck, I sighed, "Well beggars can't be choosers." It's been two hours since Dox left, and we've finally got Screwball to get enough control of her new Pokémon powers enough so we won't have to worry about her destroying anything. Everyone else had gone out to enjoy the party, unfortunately the guards who brought us here are too tired from caring all five of us here, so Twilight was kind enough to let us sleep here for the night. "Say Twilight when does Nightmare night end?"

Looking at the clock, she answered, "Well it's ten-thirty right now, so around an hour and thirty minutes." Noticing my fallen expression, she changed the subject, "Sooo since your here, I hope you don't mind to answering a couple of questions?" She looked at me with hopeful eyes.

"*sigh* Sure go ahea-!"

Apparently 'go ahead' was all she needed, as I was suddenly assaulted with barrage a barrage of questions, "WHATAREYOU?WHAT'SAPOKEMON?CANYOUDOMAGIC?HOWDIDYOUBULIDTHATMACHINEBACKINCANTERLOT?HOWOLDAREYOU?WHATISYOURSPECIESLIKE?DOYOULIKEBOOKS?"

Instantly I clamped her mouth shut, "Whoa,Twilight one at a time please?"

Blushing she took a moment to recompose herself, "Sorry..." She clears her throat, she summons up a quill and a piece of paper, "So what is a Pokémon?"

"A Pokémon is a creature with the ability to control any force of nature such as fire, water, grass, electric, etc. Pokémon come in many shapes and sizes, from what I know of there are over 750 species of Pokémon, but only 695 if you don't count the legendries."

I waited there for a few seconds for another question, when it didn't come I started to worry, but before I could speak, Twilight finally spoke up, "695 different species...." Seeing that she was about to explode, I made my way to confront her, until... "But that's impossible!" I covered my ears at the volume of her voice, "If there really was 695 species of Pokémon in Equestria then I'm pretty sure somepony would have notice."

"Unless they're hiding."

"Yes unless- wait what? Why?"

Looking over at Twilight, I rubbed the bridge of my nose, "Twilight, back then Pokémon sightings where extremely rare in Equestria, I mean they did happen, but it was still very rare. When ponies saw how much power our Pokémon had, some of those ponies wanted to hunt down their own Pokémon, in hopes of having a strong ally, but what ended up happening instead was that they made enemies, reports would often come in about how a noble was found dead because he ended up trespassing in a nest of Beedrills. 34 of those Pokémon started a war against ponykind and almost caused a mass genocide all in the name of their god-king." I repressed the memories that were threatening to come back,  "After the Phantom war, Pokémon where hunted down because ponies feared their power. I honestly don't know if new species came up while our imprisonment, but I highly doubt it. 22 of those species belong to us and they're all the last of their kind, I'm pretty sure a few went extinct, the 34 species of ghost went into hiding, the legendries stayed inside a pocket dimension, never really coming out, and the rest who knows? They could still be alive or gone extinct as well."

I waited there for what felt like an eternity, finally Twilight spoke, "But-how-why would they fight against each other? Why not have peace instead?"

"Ponies feared the Pokémon's power, and when a army of ghost type Pokémon attacked, everypony decided that they were too dangerous to be left alone. There was one Pokémon who wanted peace between the two warring sides, his name was Pharaoh, Pharaoh the Cofagrigas, he wasn't like other ghost types, he truly wanted peace...." One of the only few who truly didn't want the senseless violence to continue....

 

"Why should we trust you?!"

"We can't trust him! He's one of them!"

"Traitor!"

"The phantoms and the living can never find peace, not until one of them destroyers the other."

"HE IS DEFECTATIVE! EXTERMENATE HIM!"

"EXTERMENTATE! EXTERMENATE!"

"Savages! Savages! Dirty stinking devils!~"

"HAHAHAHA! DO YOU TRULY BELIEVE YOU CAN DEFEAT ME?! YOU TRAITOR!"

"Tomas, do you think that Pokémon and ponies can truly live in peace?"

".........."

"Hehehe, that's okay, you don't have to answer, your silence says enough...."

"CHIMMME!"

"-mas! Tomas!"

I jumped at the sound of Twilight yelling, turning to her I saw her look at me with a worried expression, "What's wrong?"

"You've been silent for a few minutes, are you okay?"

I shrugged of her worry, "I'm fine Twilight just tired, is it all right with you if I go to bed right now?"

Twilight didn't look convince, but she knew she couldn't do anything, "*sigh* The guest room is the right, upstairs." I nodded and left, wanting to be alone for the rest of the night.

"Celestia...."

"Celestia...."

"CELESTIA!!!!"

"*gasp*"

Celestia's eyes shot open, immediately she scanned the room for anything out of the ordinary, "It's just a dream, it's just a dream." Getting out of bed, she made her way to the mirror, "He's gone, he's not coming back, you've made sure of it. Nopony will ever suffer from his cruelty again....."

"Ha. ha. ha."

Celestia's eyes widen, immediately her eyes scanned every inch of the room, "Who- who's there?!"

"ha. ha. ha.", Celestia looked at her the source of the laughter and saw her reflection in the mirror, laughing at her.

"What?"

Her reflection turned towards her slowly, she immediately regretted every laying eyes on the corrupted image of her, her reflection had blood red eyes, her fur darkened to the point of being a light gray, her horn twisted and gnarled, her most disturbing feature was the ever widening smile, "Hello Celestia, did you miss me? I missed you.... HAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"No... not you..."
