Previous Chapter Next Chapter

Emerl returned from his visit from Harmony as he helped the sisters in their trail, yet at the cost of increasing the deal as Harmony has up the ante without telling him where his seal is located or what the ante was. Harmony also wants him to do the following, while she helps the sisters utilizes their hidden power: present his new friends to the tree as she provide a 'gift and knowledge' to them, prepare the B team in their mission adjective to prepare a escape plan by providing a warp pad made from Emerls body for the crowd, and defeat Discord before stoning the him. The warp pads are not a problem for Emerl, since he can regenerate lost body parts and knows some replication techniques. However, he felt unease for recruiting children into the plan for it can lead to their possible chance of death. However if a green tunic boy chosen by three entity can save his world, then his new trio friends should be able to do the same. The first thing to ask if his friends wants to join the B team as one of them began to wake up.

“Oh Faust, I am not going near those stupid rabbits.” Butteshe muttered as she examine her surroundings and notice the colts and cub were still asleep . The colts had their hooves over the manticore kitten, while he was cuddle up like a soft doll. The scenery reminded the mare of their younger day as she gave chuckle. She shook her head before focusing on the matter at hand and took a detail of surrounding. She was amazed by beauty of the crystals surroundings and the scenery of the environment before she saw a Crystal Tree. It was breathtaking to see the legendary tree that was said to combat the powers of chaos in front of her. She couldn’t reflect anything in comparison to the Tree’s glimmering beauty and stupendous power radiating from it’s body. She mesmerizingly attempted to touch until a hand smack her on the head. She snapped out of the inner trance and noticed the metallic creature from earlier.

“Where are we guardian?” She asked the robot with a serious and maternal tone.

“I’ll explain after the kids are awake,” Emerl casually began before his eyes glared a bit onto the mare. “but I could ask you something.”

“It depends does it relates to why you brought us here?” Buttershe question subjectively with narrowed eyes.

“Do you have fun with rabbits?” Emerl asked with a calm tone.

“Excuse me? Buttershe retorts with an angry tone

“I mean you woke up with saying not going near the rabbits, so are you intimate with animals or what?” Emerl repraised his question while earning a disgust expression.

“Are you sick? Who would think to screw with an animal from the wild!” Buttershe nearly shouted at the robot before she went defensive on the particular statement. “What gave you that idea?”

“Well you were cuddling with my cub affectionately, while you were asleep.” Emerl stated with a protective glare behind his eyes. The mare wasn’t bothered by the glare, despite the unnatural fear she is feeling. “For a hardened warrior you seemed to have some admiration for small animals.”

“I'm in peace when small critters are near me.” She muttered with a soft volume.

“What my ears seems covered can you repeat that?” Emerl asked with a skeptical tone.

“I've said I'm in peace when small critters are near me.” She repeated on a regular volume.

“Sorry my ears seems to be on deaf can you say it louder?” He asked again as he was lucky not to have lips at the moment.

“I've said I'm in peace when small critters are near me.” She reiterated louder as she grew agitated.

“God I wish my ears wasn't so muddy if it has these problems.” Emerl said while banging on his head. She heard a slight chuckle out of that one.

“I've said I'm in peace when small critters are near me!” She raged having enough of this foolishness. “Did you hear that you metal idiot or do I have to pound a hole through your head.”

“Yeah we heard it and by the way it's nice that you want to connect with nature.” Emerl smoothly replied as Buttershe turned to see the kids were already awoken and heard what she have said. She grew red of embarrassment before glaring darkly at the robot. The trio and cub were fascinated by their Master’s secret personality.

“Who knew our teach had a soft side.” Apple Crusher stated with a sheepish smile on his face.

“I guess every mares has one, yet don't expect real stallions to express it like that.” Silent boasted which reached to the mare’s ears.

“Hey everyone has a soft side and it's nice for our Master to express hers.” Onyx pointed out with Simba roared for an agreement to the albino pony.

“Well you’re the least stallion of the group.” Silent insisted while unknowingly insulted Onyx.

“Being a stallion requires honor and strength, which you lack as mares will comment your speed was too quick to satisfy them.”
Onyx exclaim with a smirk before openly mocking him. “If they even wanted to rump with you in the first place.”

“I hope you know how to fight better than your sad attempt of insult colt.” Silent challenge the unicorn with annoyance, while raising his hooves for a fight.

“Well I know better techniques that can take down a foal such as yourself.” Onyx antagonized in return, while charging his horn.

“Guys we can settle this after we get home. Right now Emerl was about to explain what's going on.” Apple Crusher reasoned with his teammates. The two hold the fight off before going with the orange coated pony by the a circle.

Buttershe decided to speak up as she glared at her pegasus student. “Before we start, I’ll like my student to remind me why being a stallion wouldn’t have one?” The black mane colt grew a bit nervous by his master’s predatory eyes glaring at him.

“Well I mean it’s not normal for stallions to show that mushy stuff in front of public.” He clarified while feeling a chill up his spine by his master’s killer intent. The butter coated mare gave a slight smirk at the colt being a wimp in from killer intent. She let him off with a warning by cutting the KI and focus on what the robot has to say.

“Now that we have gathered together I will like to welcome you guys to the Cave of Harmony.” Emerl introduced their surroundings before explaining their situation. “You notice I had to drag your butts here after Discord imprisoned you.” The group showed gratitude for the rescue until Buttershe asked. “So what do you need of us?” She gave a skeptical expression as she elaborates, “ I bet Discord was only interested in us because of you? What's your plan for stopping the creature from haunting us due to your presence. ”

“I wouldn't expect anything less from Grand Master Buttershe.” Emerl announce the mare who narrowed her eyes further. “The mare who have tamed the very fabric of nature to bend even the mightiest creatures to her will. It was rumored that her stare can make the strongest dragons cry as they saw the infinity spawn of hell ready to drag them to damnation.” This perk the trio’s ears as they looked at the robot with interest. “The warrior who has traveled through tartarus and eradicated the soul who had slain her mate with no chance of rebirth and the one who trained the princess in the art of hoof martial arts.” The three colts' jaws dropped on the floor by the last part until the robot calmly went near her and whispered. “Rumored to abandon her child Butterscotch in an orphanage for protection ”

“I don't need a reminder of my life,” Buttershe spoke in a dark and cold tone. “but you and I will discuss more in private after this conversation.”

“Okay.” Emerl assures before turning to everyone. “I have a proposal for everyone if they want to take part in saving Equestria from the forces of chaos.” The colts and kitten were interested at the moment saving Equestria was involved as the mare continue her stare. “ I need a team to handle the remaining forces that will cause trouble after Discord's defeat, yet I need to know if the members are dedicated to a noble cause or at least a reasonable soul to recruit.” Emerl gave a glance to the Tree of Harmony which was glowing brightly. He knew his charge wants him to just tell them the details. “ The team will be mostly stealth and sabotage similar to secret agents or spies. As you notice the princesses' knights and soldiers are just displayed in the opened with no secrets, yet we shall be warriors hidden in the shadows able to get past enemies lines and strike where they least expected. ” He let the audience absorb his words while waiting for questions. “If you have any questions ask now before we get to business.” Buttershe raised her hoof before the colts can ask.

“I would like to ask if you are bucking insane!” She burst out in anger before pointing at her students. “These colts aren't ready for war, especially being inexperience they’ll die out there.” The mark musketeers felt slightly hurt that their master doubted their abilities before she continues. “I wanted to train these colts to defend themselves from threats that ponies capable of handling. However, doing this is far out of their league.” She knew that their safety matter above all else in her life before she glared at robot and demanded. “Plus, I retire from this hell, so if you can kindly tell us where the nearest town.” Emerl could tell the actual message is 'I do not want them to suffer the same as me and I am giving them a brighter future than dying in vain or witnessing a death they couldn't prevent.' Before Buttershe could take the colts, Emerl told her a little something from the bet he made against Discord.

“Wait the reason I am asking them is to prevent Discord from using the entire audience as hostage, whom will be every being in Equestria.” Emerl pointed out which made her stop in her tracks. “They will be involve in this war.” He could feel the mare was shaking as if horrid memories returned into her mind. She felt the many bloods covering her body along with the lives she killed. “I am giving them a chance to escape if somehow I failed the challenge so think about this carefully.” He slowly went to the mare and huddle down to her before trying to comfort her. She remembered an image of a stallion as Emerl softly whispered to her ears. “If you take the colts before letting them decide, then you are signaling that they will never be ready for life even with your training.” He activated his eye projector to show a video in front of the group.

“There was a time when war force people to recruit or even raise the young to fight.” Alan narrated a bit for a simple summary, while the video began. “They were not taught of having any free will, yet one of them found purpose by the words of a old man to trust himself and believe in his own choices. He defied his masters by slaying the brothers who believed freedom was a lie as rounds of endless slaughter pass only he had remained. The youth was a sword wielding assassin who was white lightning in mortal form. He dedicates his life to defend against terrorists as he embrace his past and choices.” The video continued as the colts felt saddened by the warrior’s past. Buttershe sympathizes for the past should die, yet she pitied the boy for being forced into this path.

“How does that convince me from taking the colts as it should drive me to escape now?” Buttershe question the robot’s goal as tears began to flow from eyes. “Do you have any idea the price for being a solider?”

“Nope I know the price of being a survivor from one.” Emerl answered with a sadden tone. “I was created to mimic and conquer whoever stood in my creator's way as you can guess I was a war machine.” That shocked the colts by knowing their new friend was a created for war. “Before I discovered my soul, I had slaughtered countless people as they fled for their lives.” He clenched his hand in anger as he spoke in equal tone. “I couldn't been bargained, feel any emotion to spare, and I had only continued until every single enemy was killed.” Emerl shed an oil tear from Gizoid's experience during the Nocturne invading the Knuckle clan.

Everyone grew silent from his declaration, though the yellow mare is still puzzled why he would want her students to join. Emerl got up and began to take a walk out of the cave. “Hey, I know war is a bad, yet it is better to end the conflict before it spirals to everyone.” He stopped by the near exit to look back at the ponies and cub. “I am going to wait until tomorrow for the final decision, which if you want to stay and help thanks. However, if you leave the cave I suggest running outside Equestria border and I wouldn't blame you for running from death and suffering.” He left as the cave continued in silent.


Meanwhile in Casa de Discord


“I can't help that I feel some form of attraction to that menace as if a familiar bond.” Discord voiced in slight concern to his minions as they groan for the moment.

The minions had heard Discords disturbing fascination over the robot ever he first saw it. They tried to ignore him or risk insanity as they chat about their strategy to defeating the robot.

“So does everyone have their plans to defeat this Gizoid?” The dark copy reminded with a arrogant tone.

“We will just prove our strength by challenging one-on-one against him.” The oldest of the crimson duo claimed with confidence.

“Affirmative our weaponry shall be enough to exterminate the wasteful consumer model.” The strongest duo agreed before giving a sigh of frustration. “However, we can achieve more toward goal if we can mobilize a search and destroy mission.”

“My plan involves the fallen warriors of old to extinguish his fighting chance to win as he face against the ultimate blade.” The purple haired woman suggested before glaring at Discord with annoyance. “If only the fool had at least let us capture the robot's ally or his home, then we could finish this and gain what we seek.”

“Speak for yourself mortal at least you have the freedom to do anything.” The redhead man snarky snarled at the woman for her whining as he sneer at the following sentence. “Our Master is wasting his powers on a simple machine instead of conquest. It's worse that I have to bear his ridiculous demands, while he switch status from ring genie and lamp genie.”

“Erazor, you're better as a slave.” The purple haired woman scoffed earning a hate glare before she reminded him. “You knew this would happen if a person found the Lamp.” The sorceress turned to the entire group in question while crossing her arms. “Besides what can we do against a being that warp reality that surpasses a genie such as yourself.”

“Like your one to talk Melinda the immortal idiot.” The dark copy retorted to the witch. The sorceress glared at the copy with annoyance. “Oh wait my bad I meant Pussinda the cowardly bitch at least Gamma and Omega aren't afraid of Death.” To further the mages annoyance the robots agreed towards the duplicates words.

“The dark production is correct!” Omega affirmed before he began boasting his allies flaws. “You organic creatures are petty of your existence for it shall be used to glorified our rule as machines.”

“Shut it!” Melinda exclaimed in a bit of anger while aiming her staff at them. “You mere tools have no way of speaking to your betters!”

“Ha like you're any better than the scums I've or the destructive duo have killed.” Dark Emerl mocked as he gave her the bird. “Come back in over 4000 years if I ever see you as a threat.” The genie found this whole argument ridiculous as he magically restrained everyone.

“Flesh or metal you are all idiots wherever you go.” Erazor pointed out before staring at them with annoyance in his eyes. “Now silence before I turn you all into the very waste that makes your being.” Merlina used her dark magic to escape the hold, while Dark Emerl only made himself intangible to the bind.

Before the group were about to fight Discord exclaim a eureka as a light bulb appeared his head which it hatch open to a phoenix as it flies off.

“Erazor for my first official lamp wish I want the most powerful items your world can offer and you know what I am talking about.” Discord demanded with a dark demonic red glow mix with green iris on his eyes.

“There is no way I am granting that wish Master since I lack the powers to do so. ” Erazor lies to Discord who only his roll his eyes at the obvious misdirection. “I guess you have to wish for something else.” He snap his talons which caused the genie experience excruciating pain from his neck. Discord was laughing to the genies misfortune.

“Oh stupid genie don't you remember I own you as I own this kingdom and soon the world. You should know I will force you to get the right wish or it wouldn't count.” Discord opening mocked the ancient being after he let the poor red hair go. “Now go before I Discord have to choke a bitch.” Erazor only glared before he left in a hurry as the others only stared at this with caution. They relax when the chao’s lord’s eyes turned back to normal. They were puzzled when he brought out a stick with a cloth wrapped around it.

“Now everyone just stand there looking pretty, while your lord go spy on the robo primate.” Discord commanded as he teleports away.

“Master seems abnormal today.” Gamma pointed out making everyone nod.

“He seems to be stronger after he meet this Emerl.” Melinda stated with her worry in her eyes.

“ He must be recovering some lost memories.” The copy commented told the group before leaving the team bewildered at the sentence.

“Wait what do you mean scrap metal?” Melinda demanded while attempting to follow him. The two remaining robots in the room stared at each other with clueless expression.

“Well it's only us brother, what should we do?” Omega asked for guidance.

“We will commence battle mode to see if we’re at maximum efficiency.” Gamma replied as he left out of the room .

“So we train.” Omega summarized while being disappointed that he can't go all out.


Back to Emerl during his night walk and his viewpoint


Wow the moon seems nice. I wish Buttershe let the boys decide if they want to help before that drama started. I can't blame her for getting piss, since she lost her parents in the Windigo war and had to live off the land to survive. I am surprised she learned her skills by being a huntress in the wild, though there were some part of her past that still is a mystery. She must have gained some predatory instinct from facing dangerous animals everyday and her aura felt like she was trained from a dragon. It's sad that she lost a lot of friends and a mate in battles against monsters and assholes. Based on the reports, her mate was a hippy stallion who helped calm her down with some pony version of drugs(this guy made smoke, yet it died young before it could come out.) and early version of relaxations exercise.

Enough about that crazy mare's achievements, I wonder what's taking Harmony so long for my message reply. During the my time of boredom, I explore around the place to past the time and pray for something exciting. During my inner monologue I heard some noise coming from a bush. I check to see a timbermutt chewing on some metallic object, the little guy tried to run away before I used magic telepathy to grab the guy and told him to “drop it”. I swear the little guy wanted to shit itself after it drops the metallic piece. After dropping it the little guy scamper off, he left as if a monster was chasing him which isn't a complete lie. Oh well I tried to examine when a message pop in head describing Raiden from metal gear as it gave me a message.

I am lightning! The rain reborn! If you need aid in battle, or want someone to talk to. Find out how to work a codic then im your boy!...OH! right, if your tyrant, let's just say 'Don't use this!'

I was confused by the message until I remembered about the whole displace thing. Well I was hoping of doing this after I get some chaos energy, yet it seems the universe has different plans. I accepted the invitation as the clouds gathered and a lightning was booming around the area as it took 15 seconds before an enormous lightning cloud came down in front of me. After it cleared I saw the cyborg in all his glory as he examines his surroundings and saw me.

Before I could chat a familiar voic-. 'Emerl what did you do?' Hey Harmony! I summon a displaced Raiden who looks similar to uprising how awesome is that. 'It would be if you had told me beforehand.' Pardon me if you were busy doing whatever by the way I have to chat before the guy.... wait why does my body feel violated for some reason. Holy shit this guy is trying to hack me. 'See this is why you should let me know before summoning someone. Back to the matter at hand don't worry your long memories and my security system should prevent that.' You mean the same one that seemed to be slashed to pieces and he is getting close to my memories. 'How did that- nevermind either punch the bastard before he reach to your brain or push him out with your soul.' I choose option b, then I will use option a regardless what happens. I focus on my soul as it pushed his cyber avatar out of my body. I quickly return back to reality to punch the bastard. However he was a quick one where my punch almost reached to his jaw. He was checking if his jaw was alright as he took out his HF blade and began to ask a question.

“That all ya got?”

“Sup I know this is my first time, but this is not a robot era.” my comment seems to calm him down, yet he still doesn't seemed to trust me a bit.

“How...do I know your not lying' ?”

“Okay I admit viewing a robot can indicate I can lie, yet I will tell you now that I am a displaced my name is Alan Gabriel or preferred Emerl as you notice I am not a evil tyrant.” It took less than a second as he put his sword away and gave a grin... Oh you cheeky bastard you knew from the start and was messing with us. 'Hey Emerl he has access to our mental chats so hey jackass how are ya.' 'hehe...yeeah i was messing with ya I do that alot..Stop lying kid...damn') Well we both have voices in our heads. 'I bet he's a grump'

'Well the only that bothers me i-Im a girl!...you get the point bu-There are two in here minus Andy.' Holy crap I wonder if he is sane and I thought having just Harmony was bad 'Hey I'm not that bad and I'm sorry mam' at least her voice isn't Nui from kill la kill. Can we just shake hands for all the mental hardship with having annoy, yet useful voices in our heads. Who's Nui again I haven't seen kill la kill in...what a 1000 years? Sounds about right. *sigh*...it's OK...Hey ..I think I know a way out of this body! 'Oh you have to tell me, better yet I'll invite you to my place.' Here's a picture and tell me if it joggles some memories. 'Is that the crazy bitch?!' Unfortunately yes my friend and she can be just as bad. 'What was that my lovely boytoy' Oh god I am going to suffer after this.

We shook hands for a peace offering as our hands depart we took out our weapons and strike at the bastards that tried jump us. My finger guns are damn fun to use as I saw Raiden's prey died instantly. By the way I already copied and better mention Harmony got access to his body alright since this guy was stoned by her powers if I remembered. The only reason I am not using his moves and abilities, because I have to be authorized by the displaced to use anything I copied. 'It's for your own good Emerl and besides what will a friend be if you pose as them when you meet.' 'haha! Your too slow~! ' Oh you laugh right up, let see who gets the largest body counts with our weapons only.

We prepared as a large amount of timberwolves approach to devour, yet I find it funny that they will feel pain once they leave. I gave a Dante signature pose as I said with a grin: “Let's rock!!”
