Equestria Girls: The Elements Awaken
Chapter 11: Chapter 11: Chase/Element of Loyalty
Previous Chapter Next ChapterSilence. Silence, was all that was filled in the basketball court they were in right now. Rainbow Dash and her group were now face to face with the bullies who had hurt Toxigo. Jet Set, Upper Crust, Royal Pin, Suri Polomare, Fleur De Lis, and their "mafia boss" Neon Lights. The only bullies that weren't with them were the 5 Shadowbolts that managed to stay in the Friendship Games longer. But the Wondercolts group that were there standing could clearly tell Toxigo was afraid of them. He had been standing still, facing them with a look of fear on his face.
After a bit of silence Rainbow decided to break the awkward silence. "Hey, you guys are from Crystal Prep Academy. Cool to see you guys again. You guys want to want basketball with us? We could use some more players." Rainbow offered.
"We're not here for any basketball, rainbow pride. We're only here, for him," Neon said pointing a gray finger at Tox.
"Why are you here for him in the first place?" Flash asked.
"Why don't we explain. You see, the little snot head has been a pain in my backside for a long time. Actually, he's been a pain to all of us. Constantly asking us if we wants to hang out. Well we kept saying no because one, we didn't care about him, two, he shows no pride in Crystal Prep and three we've had lots of work to do. But, the main reason we've come is because he's made life at Crystal Prep even worse. Cinch was upset that we lost at the Friendship Games, and by the way, she still declares you all cheating. And she took her anger out on us by adding on more homework and cutting down on the extra-curricular activities so that we still stay on top. But then this little mucus colored Metal Gear Solid kid just had to blow up Indigo's car. We heard Indy trying to explain to Cinch someone else did it, but that only enraged her and she added on the workload. All because of him. And now, he's going to pay."
Toxigo slowly backed up in fear, only to hear words come from his new friends.
"Okay, first off all, Cinch brought the failure onto herself by even blackmailing Twilight to releasing the stolen magic to begin with. Second, she only has herself to blame for constantly dropping all of the workload on you. He has nothing to do with you, and I'm surprised you have the nerve to try and pin the blame on him after all of the suffering you've done to him." Flash exclaimed.
"And what are you ever talking about?" Jet Set asked in his snooty voice.
"How about when you ripped goggles of his head during shop class making him lose an eye? Or Indigo running over him with the car to begin with? Or... Actually I don't know how you lost the ears, Tox how did you ever lose those to begin with? Didn't you say Sour Sweet was responsible for it?" asked Micro Chips.
"Sour Sweet helped, is what she did. Lemon Zest is the primary reason for this. During another torture session they slipped the headset on my head and played the music really loud. So loud in such I didn't hear a thing and at that point, Sour Sweet did... something that I can't even begin to describe to any of you because its just gross and disgusting but overall, got my ears ripped off! I had to build these mechanical replacements. Needless to say, they have improved my hearing quite amazingly."
"Okay..." came from Micro Chips.
"First off, what happened in shop class was he didn't get out of the way and got a drill bit right into his eye. And what about the Friendship Games? You never gave any support to us or help whatsoever." Neon sneered.
"Maybe he didn't want to give support for everything you all did to him! You never wanted to talk to him, you picked on him, abused him, and you constantly got away with it and you never got repercussions for it! And you're seriously taking your anger out on him for the Friendship Games? That's just petty of you! Its just a competition that you always beat us at and never let us forget it! And why don't you just leave him alone, what the heck is wrong with you! Just because he wants to be your friend means you have the right to hurt him!? Not... Cool. Now, if you want to leave peacefully without any issues, I suggest you get out of here and beat it. You mess with my friends, you mess with me." Rainbow Dash replied.
Just at that exact moment, Rainbow's body gave a blue glow and she grew pony ears, wings, and a tail once more. Royal Pin cringed at the sight of that, while Jet Set and Upper Crust's eyes were wide open with their jaw's hanging out. Neon Lights simply just gave an angry unsmiling face expression and the group started walking away. Soon Rainbow Dash put an arm on Toxigo's shoulder giving him an indication that he was okay. So the Wondercolts group started to walk away from the area, except for Trixie who gave one last look at them. But as she was about to walk away she almost tripped forwards on her face. She knew she didn't step on any rocks, and the trip felt like someone's foot. She turned to see that Suri Polomare was giving a smug expression on her face that was a mockery of an apology, along with her arms going out saying "sorry". But Trixie had tricks up her sleeve, she raised an arm out gesturing for her to wait, looked back at the Wondercolts, and back at Suri and shrugged. She extended an arm asking to start over, only for her to swing a kick towards her kicking her down.
"That's for hurting Toxigo, and for tripping the Great and Powerful Trixie!"
Trixie then decided to walk away with her victory intact, only for Suri to toss something towards the back of her head.
"Oh it is on!" Trixie yelled before tackling Suri to the ground.
The two rolled over, punched, kicked, and spit at each other but neither were defeated. Eventually Fleur De Lis had to just simply walk up and take Suri just to get out of there, only for Trixie to kick her in the flannel skirted butt. But after that, other Crystal Prep students started running in, and Trixie knew she needed backup.
"Guys! Hey guys!" Trixie yelled.
Eventually the group heard her and started charging into the area to chase after the Shadowbolts. Soon it became a wild goose chase between the Wondercolts and Shadowbolts. They raced all over the town trying to take each others side down, but so far no luck. But as Toxigo was charging down a tunnel way where trucks would drive from, he got an idea. He made a left, and as Neon, Pin, and Jet Set came charging down...
"Mira, Mira, Mira!"
Toxigo yelled in Spanish at them towards the other end of the tunnel, after that, the three Shadowbolt boys felt someone jumping over them. They were met with a surprise from Toxigo's Alternate Dazzling allies. "Hey Bolts!" The three yelled as they leaped over them like a game of leapfrog. What the Shadowbolts didn't know is that Toxigo has secretly sent mind messages to the Wondercolt students and filled them in on a plan to mess with them.
So in the first round of the chase AU Sonata yelled at a few Shadowbolt boys and they pursued after her. What they didn't know is that she somehow managed to climb onto the top of a building and had an archery kit with her. Only this time she was using tacos to launch at the Shadowbolt boys. Each one of them got pelted with them.
"Who launches tacos at people!? Seriously!" A Shadowbolt boy yelled.
"Hey, don't you talk that way about my tacos! I like tacos!"
".... That's the stupidest thing I ever heard Smurffette!"
AU Sonata stayed in silence still keeping her happy smile and just simply fired another taco towards the Crystal Prep boy.
Over on AU Aria's end, she was getting some Crystal Prep girls to chase her into Vinyl's music store where they had set a trap. This time, the Shadowbolt girls were getting pushed out by Vinyl, AU Aria, Ringo, Valhalen, Thunderbass and Brawly Beats. Each one of them gave a snickering smile followed by an uncontrollable laughter, and then they ran back into the store and closed it just to make them mad.
On AU Adagio's end, she was over at a junkyard area and gestured some of them to chase her.
"Come on boys, huh? WHOO!!!! Come on Bolts, come on! WHEE-HE-HEEE!!!!"
Adagio ran up the hill of junk while being chased by three Crystal Prep boys, but as they reached to the top, they had realized they walked into a trap. Their eyes had locked onto Adagio and her giant group of Wondercolt students. Eventually all of them started chucking scraps of food towards them giving them the hint saying "Go Away!".
However, on Toxigo's end, things were about to go down. He spray painted a giant sign on a brick wall in an alleyway that said Shadowbolts Suck. Unfortunately, he turned his head left to see Royal Pin standing, then turning his head left he saw Jet Set and Upper Crust standing, and it wasn't long to see that Neon Lights. Fleur, and Suri had arrived.
"Oh...marvelous."
Meanwhile everyone else was keeping the other Shadowbolts occupied with their pranks and tricks. AU Sonata and the Wondercolts had some new tricks ready to try on them.
"Mira, mira, mira!" Sonata shouted with glee.
Eventually some Shadowbolts saw and chased after her.
"Hey Bolts, come on! WHEE-HE-HEEE!!!" Sonata squeed with joy.
She ran around the corner only to stop to see Thunderbass, Brawly Beats, Norman, Heath Burns, and Cloud Kicks to squirt them with water guns.
"Thanks guys!" Sonata yelled.
"Just keep going, we'll hold them!" Beats yelled.
Sonata then ran off once more and ran into Adagio and Aria.
"Oh, hey girls. How was the prank attack on the Crystal Prep students?" AU Sonata asked.
"It was fun but I don't see how fighting them is going to solve any issues here. Fighting has never solved anything." AU Aria replied.
"True as that may be, Toxigo wanted us to help engage in fighting back the enemy that destroyed his life. Besides he's our creator, we have to help him." AU Adagio responded while also dodging a flying frying pan in the air.
"Where is Toxigo anyways?" Aria asked.
In another area, Rainbow Dash, Trixie, Micro Chips, Sandalwood, and Flash were running away from more Shadowbolts but found themselves trapped in an alleyway with only one way of escaping, and that was the path ahead of them.
"Why did you have to tackle Suri?" Micro Chips said sounding afraid.
"Suri should never have tackled the Great and Powerful Trixie!"
"Well it doesn't matter right now, we have no way of getting out of here." Rainbow exclaimed. At that moment, Royal Pin, Suri, Fleur, and Neon Lights came to the front of the group. "No way of escaping now, is there, Wondercluts." Neon sneered with an angry grin. "You should have just let us win the Friendship Games, and maybe we wouldn't be here, now would we?"
"You were going to release a power you couldn't control dude! That's just dangerous!" Sandalwood yelled.
"And what did you do to Toxigo!?" Rainbow yelled in fear.
Their eyes turned to see Jet Set and Upper Crust tossing his unconscious body in front of them, showing many signs of damage. He had millions of cuts, bruises, scratches, and some bones were bent the wrong way. He also had several dents and damage that were done to his mechanical arm, and some fingers were shown to be almost all the way off, with some wires that were disconnected. Along with that amount of damage, they could see his mechanical bat ears had some damage to it and millions of dents into it. Concerned for possible death, Sandalwood bent down to place a finger on him to check for a pulse.
"I can't tell if he's dead."
"Well of course he's not dead. You think we're monsters? You really think we would actually kill him? We may be jerks but even we're smart enough to know murder is something no one can get off of so easily."
"When I get my hands on you, you will be sorry!" Rainbow yelled with a tear down her face in anger. She was now really angry that someone hurt one of their friends, and maybe almost killing him.
"And just how can you stop us? There are more of us, than there are of you. Besides, its time someone teaches you what happens when you mess with Crystal Prep students."
Neon lived to regret those words, because at that moment, things were going to go down. Darkness covered the alleyway, and at the exit and none of them knew why. But just as Neon was about to go forward, he heard a very odd hissing sound. Everyone looked to see where it was coming from, but no one could find where it was coming from. But as they turned around, they were faced to face with Fluttershy. Only this Flutttershy wasn't anything like they've seen. Her white tank top looked like it had been scratched at, her skirt had pink bats on it instead of butterflies, her ears were bat-like, she had fangs, and her eyes were red as blood. The five Wondercolts immediately stepped back out of fear.
"You mess with my friend, you mess with FLUTTERBAT!"
"And me!" AU Sonata yelled as she joined in helping Flutterbat, following which AU Adagio and AU Aria stepped in as well.
"You stepped on my friend, well now, we will step on you!" Adagio yelled in anger.
"And what are you going to do about it?"
"She's going to call in powerful allies, more stronger than any of you!" came a familiar screaming tone.
"Some familiar, some you've never seen before." came from another entity.
Everyone's eyesight's were on the two figures that were standing in front of them. Rainbow Dash and the Wondercolts recognized them very well. The first one was Demon Sunset Shimmer who they had faced at the Fall Formal, and the other one was Midnight Sparkle who emerged at the Friendship Games.
"Now we will give you all a choice, either you run away like pansies and never tell anyone what you saw..."
" Or forever be trapped in a world none of you will ever survive in!" finished Midnight Sparkle.
All everyone did was slowly back away, only for the group of scary entities to roar at them and they all ran away like babies. After the running away like cowards, Midnight Sparkle and Demon Sunset Shimmer floated into the air and evaporated like paper being set on fire.
"Is he okay?" Trixie asked sounding worried.
AU Adagio leaned down, flipped Toxigo over on his back and pulled her head in to listen to his heart, and gave a thumbs up to Trixie, and she gave a breathing sigh as relief. But suddenly, they noticed something odd going on with Toxigo. He was slowly, somehow, bending his bones and structure back in place. ****
His leg that was twisted in a very odd manner was slowly moving back into normal, the wires that were shown to be out and to be the things making the fingers move reconnected back into place, and the mechanical fingers moved back into their sockets. They also noticed the metal bending itself back out from being smashed in on his arm. Soon, he slowly stood back up, and turned his back facing forwards, after making some bones crack.
"I said this before, and I'll say it again. I hate the Shadowbolts. Now if you'll excuse me because I've spent a majority of today running like crazy, I'm going home to take a shower. If you want to hang out again, give me a call. I actually enjoyed hanging with you guys." Toxigo said as he started to walk off with the four girls.
"Wait, hold on" Rainbow asked.
"Yes?"
"How did you make those things, and why did they defend us?"
"I created them using a wish. I wished for this area to be created with an illusion with its purpose being to give the Bolts a scare. I knew I couldn't fight them while I was surrounded, and plus I didn't want expose my magic to them because if I did, then they would do all sorts of blackmail against us."
"But they have phones, wouldn't they be able to record the information?" Micro asked.
"An excellent question Micro Chips. Luckily I planned ahead, and I tapped all of their phones, so there would be no way for them to get evidence against us."
"Okay, well what about the demon Twilight and Sunset? Or even that. Flutter, bat, thing?" Flash asked.
"Well with an insane amount of luck and quick thinking, I secretly made a wish to create a scary vision of Midnight Sparkle, Demon Sunset Shimmer, and Flutterbat. The only real ones are the Alternate Dazzlings, they'll actually defend humanity from evil. And if you're wondering why they defended us is because I made them. My mind and their minds are all connected, basically I'm all of them, in different forms. I made more them so I could defend you guys. I wasn't going to let any of you get hurt by the Bolts. I'm a Wondercolt now, and Wondercolts always help one another. Plus as you said, you mess with my friends...you mess with me."
At that moment, Toxigo then ponied up again showing off the robotic pony ears, green wings, and long ponytail. But he didn't question it this time around, he stopped questioning things after all of the magical encounters at Canterlot High, plus getting a short and not very explained explanation on how the girls pony up. So Toxigo, Flutterbat, and the AU Sirens all left the alleyway to walk back to their home, and Rainbow Dash's small group looked at them walking off in the sunset, giving them a smile.
"You know something Flash?" Rainbow asked
"What?"
"I know you and Fluttershy said he didn't seem like a bad guy. But now I'm starting to believe it. And that's awesome." Rainbow smiled.
