It was late in Feudal Era, and while many of the teammates have fallen asleep, but Robin was wide awake outside, sitting under a large tree, while contemplating how to use Raven’s time warp spell.

Starfire awoke, and saw him outside through the open doorway, and hovered out to him.

“You are feeling the alright?” she asked.

Robin smiled softly up at her, and she sat down next to him.

“You should come inside with us.”

Robin shook his head “How can I sleep when we’re so close-- so close to being able to fix everything.”

Starfire shared his anxiety, but at the same time she was upset that Raven was dead or rather not yet born, and therefore couldn’t explain to them how the power worked.

Suddenly, both their heads felt funny as if someone was speaking to them form within their minds. It started low, and then got louder and clearer.

“Robin…

Starfire…

…Can you hear me?”

Robin and Starfire nearly forgot how to blink.

“That voice!” cried Robin.

“…It cannot be!” added Starfire.

It sounded just like Raven, which they still could not believe, until she called out to them, “Close your eyes and look deep within you.”

Heeding her words, the two titans sat quietly, shut their eyes and concentrated softly.

All at once, they found themselves standing in a stark black realm of nothingness.

“Star?”

“Robin?”

“Where are we now?”

Suddenly, in a bright flash of light appeared none other than Raven herself.

The other two were simply overwhelmed.

“Raven?” cried Robin.

“It is… it is really you?” added Starfire, but Raven shook her head. “I’m not really here.” she explained “When I infused you with my powers, I also infused part of my own spirit with your minds. This is where I exist now.”

The others didn’t know whether to feel overjoyed or heartbroken; just seeing her again nearly brought tears to their eyes.

“Listen to me.” Raven said, “I can help you unlock my time warp spell, but it isn’t easy.”

The next morning, Rainbow Dash stretched out.

Cadance was up and about, but almost all the others looked baggy-eyed, except for Kagome’s group.

“How are you supposed to sleep on these hard floors?” groaned Tai.

Matt flexed his back, “I think I twisted myself.”

The other groups just weren’t used to sleeping middle-age style.

“Wimps.” grumbled Inuyasha.

Cyborg checked his battery, “Getting’ kinda low. I’ll go stand out in the sunlight.”

Kari stepped outside and basked in the warm sunlight. She never smelled such clean and fresh air before-- what with the lack of fossil fuels and dust from modern cities.

“It’s so beautiful here.” she said “It’s so hard to believe that this world is actually overrun with horrible demons.”

Inuyasha took that hard. “Who are you calling horrible!”

“Inuyasha!” growled Kagome “Give her a break. She’s new to this world.”

Sango and Miroku approached Kari, and Miroku said “If you should see any demons, I would advise against trying to fight them.”

Sango agreed “Leave them to us, we’re the professionals.”

Kari agreed, but she didn’t notice Mirkou was softly moving his hand to stroke her bottom… but Sango noticed, and clunked him with her boomerang.

Kari was confused, and Sango was disgusted, while Miroku could only sigh in dismay.

“Where’s Robin and Starfire?” asked Pinkie.

“Maybe they were eaten by monsters?” teased Discord.

Many of the ponies felt shocked at such a horrible thought.

Fluttershy snapped, “Discord, that wasn’t nice!”

Discord sulked “Was just trying to liven up the dullness around here.”

Robin and Starfire came back with Kaede, and a few small burlap bags of herbs, and liquid extracts from plants and animal blood.

“Where have you two been?” asked Starlight.

Robin explained the vision he and Starfire had the other night.

Cyborg heard them and rushed back, “You saw Raven?”

“Only in our minds.” said Robin, and he explained how Raven told him and Starfire how to unlock the time warp spell, hence the ingredients that lay before them. “Raven said all these different herbs and liquids will help us create a special powder she had that helps create the time spell.”

Starfire gazed thankfully at Kaede, “It was a good thing you had all of these ingredients preserved for us.”

“Ah, but alas, Starfire,” said Kaede “There is but one ingredient I do not possess.”

Everyone looked straight at her, and she told them, “I possess the herbs of three different grounded up plants, the liquidized venom of a spider, and even the dried up and grounded bones and of a demon.”

Shippo shuddered at the thought of that last one.

“Well, what’s the missing ingredient then?” asked Joe.

Kaede remained silent for a moment, and then answered “To complete this mixture, I require the hairs of am extremely powerful demon, one that is not like most common demons that are normally seen.

It must be a demon of incredible power and force.”

Most of the others fell silent now, and all exchanged looks of deep concern, but Inuyasha seemed jumpy for it. “That’s it? A power demon hair…? Bring it on! I can take it.”

Shippo quivered in fear and jumped into Kagome’s arms.

“But… where would we find such a demon?” asked Kagome “And how would we know it’s the right kind we’re looking for?”

Kaede fell silent again, and said nothing, but everyone could read her like a book.

“Is there something’s you’re not telling us?” asked Cody.

Kaede explained, “There is one demon I believe that can suffice in your quest…

Many, many years ago, Kikyo and I were searching across the lands, hearing tales of a great beast that had been terrorizing wandering travelers, and ransacking the villages.

We found it, but the beast was so ferocious I was overcome with fear, and Kikyo stood to defend me, impaling the beast with a sacred arrow, sealing it within a stone monument.”

That was all she knew.

Yolei felt a shiver run down her spine, “Okay, this is getting freaky.” she muttered.

Ken agreed with her, “Even facing an army of evil Digimon won’t compare to this.”

Even Kagome’s friends were starting to have their doubts-- Sango especially, “Even the best demon slayers I have known have heard of no such story.”

Kaede nodded, “Many had tried to face this creature before my sister. All had failed and met with their demise.”

“If this demon is truly all that powerful,” said Miroku “How would we know we could defeat it and seize its hair?”

Inuyasha cracked his knuckles, “You just leave to me. I can take him.”

Despite his confidence, Robin decided, “The Titans and I will go with you.”

Starfire and Cyborg agreed.

“If it is the only way to save all worlds, we are in.” said Starfire.

Cyborg nodded.

“We’re going too.” said Twilight, and all her pony friends agreed.

“With our magic and super abilities,” said Cadance “We’re sure to be a huge help.”

The ponies all agreed, and Fluttershy then looked up at Discord expecting him to comply.

Discord sighed, “Sometimes I think I hate you.” he grumbled, but he accepted, knowing his powers would be especially helpful.

Naturally, the Digi Destined were all left out of this, and it was insisted and agreed that they stay behind.

“If only we had our Digimon and our Digivices.” said Sora.

“Well, the fact is we don’t.” said Izzy “We still know hardly much about this world at all. It won’t be safe for us out there.”

The team agreed.

“So, where is this stone seal?” asked Shippo.

Kaede left and then returned later with an old map that showed the way.

“It’s near the village where Princess Tsuyu lives.” said Kagome.

Inuyasha sighed in dismay, “Why are we always ending up going near that dame?”

“Isn’t she Nobunaga’s crush?” asked Matt.

“More like his non-crush,” said Tai “She never reciprocated his feelings.”

Mimi sniffled, remembering the story, “I can’t stand it when a guy works so hard and nearly kills himself, only to lose the love of his life.”

Many of the others thought it bad, especially Cadance, but she said “We should just focus on our main task right now.”

Sango and Miroku offered to stay behind and protect the Digi Destined.

“If that demon is unleashed it would most likely return here first to seek its revenge.” said Miroku.

“We shall not let it.” said Sango

Kirara agreed and transformed into her big form and growled.

“Wow! That’s almost like Digivolving.” said Izzy.

With the map in hand, the teams headed off for the neighboring village, which wasn’t that far away.

“Please be careful.” Kari called to them “I don’t think I can bear it if more of you died.”

The team promised their best to come back alive, and they were on their way.

Cadance allowed Kagome and Inuyasha a ride on her back to save time in walking. Twilight carried Robin, Starfire flew on her own, and Cyborg used his jet-boots.

Starlight levitated herself with her magic, and Applejack and Pinkie rode with Discord-- he carried them in each of his claws.

“Ouch!” groaned Applejack, “When’s the last time you clipped your nails?”

Discord sighed, “Are we there yet?”

Nobunaga reported to Erebus what he had learned from observing the teams while they spoke with the spirits.

“Are you certain of what you saw?” asked Erebus.

“Yes, my lord. I heard their every word, and I could see The Creators themselves.”

Erebus fell silent thinking of the other spirits, preferably, “Kiran…”

Thinking of her and how this entire mess started by her hand, all those eons ago.

Many of the other Dark Angels heard from Nobunaga what the teams were planning, and there was no questioning what it meant for them.

For that, all the angels remained silent and sat into deep meditation, except for Nobunaga, for there something on his mind plaguing him.

Erebus could sense this, and he could tell what Nobunaga desired, “…You may do so.”

Nobunaga looked up at him, “How do you know--”

Erebus bowed his head forth, “I know many things over the eons, including a young man’s fondest desire.

Seeing as it will not matter soon, I will grant you this one favor.”

He then raised his hand and cast Nobunaga in a wave of aura, which would render him tangible to mortal beings.

Nobunaga didn’t know what to say, but Erebus did, “Go now while you can, before it is too late.”

Nobunaga bowed and left the Dark Zone quickly.

He flew straight over the royal palace of the village and searched all over for the princess, but he still kept well out of sight, now that anyone would be able to see him, and he didn’t dare call out for the princess either.

When he couldn’t find the Princess or her husband anywhere in the entire palace, there was only one suggestion that they had stepped out-- possibly on another royal peace mission.

This was doubly confirmed by the carriage tracks leading from the stables, right through the village, and out into the lands.

“I must find the princess while I still have time.” he said to himself.

He then flew up very, very high to avoid being seen, and hopefully he could see the royal caravan from high up, except, storm clouds were starting to blow over the lands making it hard to see.

The mortals were far out in the field as the clouds began to approach and the winds picked up a little.

“There’s a storm coming.” said Pinkie.

“Really, what gave you that idea.” teased Cyborg.

Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, try as they would, they couldn’t seem to move the clouds away or shift the winds.

“It’s no good.” said Starlight “This isn’t the kind of weather in Equestria. The pegasi can’t shift it.”

“Huh!” scoffed Inuyasha “We’ve faced bad weather before. It’s no big deal.”

Suddenly, Starfire could see something down below in the open fields-- a single solid rock sticking up out of the ground like a pillar, and with a sacred arrow imbedded in it.

“Is that what we seek?” she asked.

“It has to be,” said Kagome “That’s Kikyo’s sacred arrow. I’d recognize it anywhere.”

“So would I.” said Inuyasha. Just seeing the arrow made him think of Kikyo and wonder where she was now and what she was doing.

Cadance began to dive down and he nearly fell off if Kagome hadn’t grabbed him.

“Warn me when you’re about to do that!” sneered Inuyasha.

“Sorry.” said Cadance.

The team touched down, right by the rock, and gawked at it.

Twilight was fascinated by how normal the rock seemed, “Yet this is where a huge, dangerous demon is sealed?”

Everyone just stared blindly at the rock, feeling rather nervous about this whole thing.

“Shouldn’t we do something now?” asked Fluttershy.

Kagome nodded and she softly moved forth towards the rock. Knowing it was Kikyo’s arrow, only she could remove it. Any of the others would receive a fatal and powerful shock if they tried to touch it.

“Be careful, Kagome.” said Inuyasha.

Slowly, Kagome reached for the arrow, and grabbed it harmlessly, and in one swift yank, she pulled it out of the rock!

All at once, the rock began to glow in blue light, and Kagome dashed away from it!

Far away, Kikyo was wandering through the fields, when she suddenly stopped dead in her tracks when she senses a powerful demonic aura!

“It cannot be!” she growled softly.

She wasn’t the only one who sensed it…!

Sesshomaru stopped in his tracks.

“Lord Sesshomaru, what is it?” asked Jaken.

He didn’t answer but clenched his fists tightly, much to Rin’s confusion.

Then, he suddenly took off, leaping across the fields.

“Lord Sesshomaru!” cried Rin, and she dashed off after him.

“Hey! Wait for me!” called Jaken.

Even the people in Kaede’s village saw the blue light shooting straight up from the distance.

“Lady Kaede!” cried a village man “Do you see that light?”

“Aye… and I like not the look of it.”

“The demon is rising.” said Miroku.

Sango and Kirara stood sharp and tall, while Shippo was trembling nervoursly.

Kari picked him up and cuddled him, but she like the other Digi Destined didn’t like the looks of that light either.

The light was shining brighter, and in the center of it, the demon was starting to appear.

“Get ready!” said Robin.

Suddenly, the light ceased, and the creature appeared.

It had to be three stories high. It had the head of a serpent with fangs and a nasty venomous tongue, but the body of a strong gorilla beast, two strong arms with sharp claws, and strong legs with beast hoofs for feet. Atop its head was long, flowing white hair that was so course it was like needles.

The demon roared loudly at the teams, frightening them. It couldn’t speak with words, but it looked pretty steamed and ready to destroy anything that it saw.

Inuyasha drew his sword. “Let’s party!”

Robin drew out his staff, “Titans, Go!”

“Let’s move, Ponies!” shouted Twilight.

Everyone charged forth, not even thinking first, and the demon roared at them, blowing them all back hard in a strong wave of air.

“His breath reeks!” groaned Rainbow.

Twilight got a good sniff of the odor and recognized it, “It smells like… acid.”

Kagome recognized the smell too, from all the chemistry she took in school. “Wait a minute!” she cried, and hers were confirmed as the demon drew in a huge breath,

“LOOK OUT!!” Kagome screamed.

The demon then spewed out a trail of acid venom straight at the groups.

Twilight, Starlight and Cadance jumped in, and quickly combined their powers to conjure a protective barrier around the groups as the venom passed by and burned all the grass and vegetation around.

“Whoa! Talk about spewin’ up!” cried Cyborg.

The ground was still safe to walk on, the acid dried up quickly, but that demon looked ready for more, and rather than charge at the team in the barrier, it turned and began to head towards the Kaede’s village!

“We’ve got to stop it!” shouted Applejack.

“Yes,” said Robin “But remember, we need to get some of its hairs. So, don’t blow it to bits!”

The others agreed, and chased after the monster.

Kagome fired an arrow from her bow.

The arrow struck, but the demon was hardly fazed. “It’s no good! My arrows aren’t as strong as Kikyo’s!”

The Titans then tried.

Cyborg fired his sonic-cannon, Starfire unleashed her starbolts, and Robin threw his mini-bombs.

Those blasts, combined with Raven’s power, did alert the demon and made it turn round to face the teams again.

“Let’s try and hold it down!” shouted Starlight, and she, Twilight and Cadance fired magical beams from their horns like strong lines, and lassoed the demon’s wrists and ankles, holding it down as hard as they could.

“I’ll go for his hair!” called Discord, and he summoned up a huge pair of scissors, and he flew straight up for the demon’s hair, ready for the cut…!

…But that big brute was stronger than it looked! It flailed and fussed about, making the ponies lose their grips. The magical lines ceased in huge blasts, and the shockwaves knocked the three ponies in different directions

Next, the demon managed to extend and move its prickly hair, just like a tentacle, and grabbed Discord in midair.

“Discord!” cried Fluttershy.

Discord wailed as the pressure got to him, “Prickly… PRICKLY…!! …HURTTING!!”

He barely managed to teleport himself out of that bind.

“Are you alright?” asked Pinkie

Discord made a glass of water appeared and drank it, and faked water spewing out form seeming holes in his body. “Yeah, I think I’m okay.”

Pinkie rolled her eyes. Even she knew better than to be joking at a time like this.

The demon the extended its huge mane out, and the sharp needles shimmered brightly.

“Look out!” called Robin.

The demon unleashed a rain of deadly spines forcing everyone to back away hard.

“Sure, he just has to have a needle attack too!” groaned Applejack.

Inuyasha growled “If I can just get a good shot at it, I can lop its mane right off.”

The demon roared, and Fluttershy screamed, “When you find a way let me know!” and she dashed away to find some place to hide, but the fields were wide open, and this demon loved the scent of fear and began to chase her.

“Fluttershy!” called Rainbow, and she swooped in and grabbed her friend, whisking her to safety just as the demon struck.

“That was say too close!” cried Rainbow.

KABOOM! Thunder and lightning shook the skies as rain began to fall, and the winds got a little strong.

The royal caravan was traveling along when the storm hit, and the thunder made Tsuyu jump. Her husband comforted her.

“Our apologies,” the carriage driver called to them “I was certain we would have arrived before the storm broke.”

“We may as well continue forth.” said Lord Kimo “We have come too far to turn back now.”

The caravan continued forth.

Suddenly, there was a loud roar.

“What was that?” cried Tsuyu.

Kimo heard it too, and so did their escort guards.

“Look there!” one of them shouted, and he pointed far off in the distance where he saw Rainbow Dash in the sky with Fluttershy still in her grasp.

The couple recognized Rainbow anywhere, but they could barely believe their eyes.

Suddenly, they saw the demon’s large head rising up over the fields, and it roared, frightening the princess again!

This prompted the caravan to proceed faster before they were seen, but it was no good…!

The demon spewed out another venom trail that headed straight at them!

“LOOK OUT!!” cried the driver.

The rushing venom spooked all the horses, and the carriage toppled over, and the venom was still splashing towards the group.

The guards screamed and the horses wailed as they were all burned away in the washout, but the Princess and her husband were spared thanks to the undercarriage of their royal coach metallic plating underneath, shielding them from the acid… just barely.

Tsuyu couldn’t help but scream in fright at the destruction and the dead bodies around her.

Her scream echoed across the fields.

“What is that?” asked Jaken.

“Sounds like someone screaming.” said Rin.

“I am aware of that, child!” snapped Jaken “I was merely asking a rhetorically question.”

“Calm down, Jaken.” said Sesshomaru “We are very close. I can sense the presence of a powerful creature.”

Then he bounded his way across the field, but quickly informed Jaken to stay and look after Rin.

Then he was gone.

The demon heard Tsuyu’s scream and turned to face the direction where his venom had spread.

“What’s it doing now?” hollered Cyborg.

“It’s drawn towards fear.” said Kagome “It’s trying to find who made that scream!”

The demon began to stomp its way across the field, straight for the royal caravan.

The teams chased it down, and could see the caravan themselves. “It’s the royal couple!” cried Cadance.

Judging from all the burning grass and the bits of corpses surrounding the destroyed caravan, Twilight assumed “The venom must’ve killed their guard escort!”

The demon got closer, and the princess and her lord had no place to run to, and no horses to escape on.

The demon extended its mane, ready to fire at the helpless victims, when suddenly…!

WHAPP!! Sesshomaru came in out of nowhere and kicked the creature hard in its huge face, and he landed safely on the ground.

“Sesshomaru?” said Inuyasha.

His brother looked up, and merely scoffed, “Inuyasha.”

The rest of the team arrived on the scene. “So, that’s Inuyasha’s older brother?” asked Discord.

“Sesshomaru,” answered Kagome “He’s a full demon, not like Inuyasha.”

The Titans moved in to help the royal couple.

“Come with us.” said Cyborg, but the coupled shuddered softly, having never seen a creature like him before.

“Please, have no fear. We mean you no harm.” said Starfire.

The demon roared again, and the couple took the Titans’ hands, and were being whisked further away from the battle zone, and into a clearing.

“Stay here.” Cyborg said to them, and then he Starfire went back to help the team.

“You’re mine!” Inuyasha shouted, and leapt towards the demon’s head to lop it off with his sword, but the demon swung its huge arm and bashed him down to the ground.

“Pitiful.” said Sesshomaru, and then he drew out his own sword and leapt at the demon again, only for it to fire its needle attack again.

Robin then quickly used Raven’s powers to create a wall of darkness to shield him from the attack.

“Thank you,” said Sesshomaru “But I can take care of myself. Please stay out of my way.”

Robin growled softly in disgust.

The demon then prepared to unleash its venom again.

“Oh, no you don’t!” snapped Twilighlt, and she used her powers to rope the demon’s mouth shut with magical bindings.

“YE-HAW! Way to rope that one!” cheered Applejack.

“Now’s our chance to get its hairs!” shouted Pinkie.

The entire team agreed, but just as they all prepared to attack…

As luck would actually have it, a bolt of lightning struck very close to where they all were with such a flash and bang!

The very ground shook, and everyone was knocked off their feet by the force of the waves.

As Kagome feel back, her bottle of jewel shards went sailing from her pouch.

“The jewel shards!” she cried as she saw them all land right by the demon’s huge foot.

With its arms still free, the demon picked up the bottle, and clenched it hard in its fist, absorbing the shards, including the one tainted with Princess Luna’s power.

All at once, its enormous body began to glow with the sacred aura, and the demon grew larger, its skin and scales grew darker in color and thicker, and its head spouted an extra mouth while its mane began to flowing like Luna’s mane used to, with dark aura.

Everyone gawked at the now super demon with extreme horrors.

“This can’t be good!” whimpered Pinkie.
