The Dragons of Metal, Sun, and Thunder
Chapter 58: A lesson on Slugs
Previous Chapter Next ChapterA new day has passed since our heroes have acquired the Slugs from Slugterra. Let's see what's going on right now.

Pov: Keshaun
"So while we were having a vacation in Manehattan. Ash found an underground Slug city?" Keshia asked as I nod.
"Yep. I think I have a theory on how the Slugs got here. A special thing the Elementals did. They created a portal that brought these Slugs to Terra. Cause I'm sure more are underground." I said making a theory.
"That could be the case. Maybe we'll run into more." Garbelle said holding a armorshell Slug.
"These Slugs are so cute! I can't believe they come in this many varieties. I mean look at this pink and cyan one. It's so derpy it's cute!" Pinkie said holding the bubble Slug.
"That nothing this guy is definitely the coolest." Rainbow said as the hover Slug flys around her.
"I must say they do look adorable, I'm not sure if you all should touch them because of how they in the dirt. Ugh not my cup of tea." Rarity said squeamishly.
"There fine. They were already clean. Anyway hold this one." I said holding out a Flaringo Slug.
"Hey Keshaun, what does this one do?" Twilight asked holding a white and purple Slug.
"Oh that's a stinker. It's name gives away what it does. It let's out a noxious gas that stays on you for awhile." I said.
"How long?" Fluttershy asked holding a Spider Slug.
"A week to a month on how bad it holds it. It can be used as a smoke bomb and can poison you a little." I said.
"They can transform as well. That's how you use Slugs. They are pets but can help you out in battle." Justice said walking downstairs.
"I was actually about to talk about that as well before you interrupted me Justice. But I'll be right back. I have to make a blaster and some canisters for the Slugs." I said heading to the forge in the hyperbolic time chamber.

After an hour of making blasters. I finally got enough for everyone.
(There are four copies of this one but one is red and orange.)
(There four copies but each one is a different color)
(Same as the first and second)
(Same as the rest)
"That should be enough. Time to head back." I said opening a gate.
"Oh Keshaun. I made sandwiches while you were making blasters." Keshia said holding a plate of sandwiches.
"Thanks Mom. Anyway who wants to see a Slug transform?" I asked grabbing the red and orange blaster and a sandwich.
After eating I brought everyone outside so I can do the demonstration.
"So here's a explanation on the Slugs and the blasters." I said holding a see through blue canister big enough for the Slugs to go in.
"These canisters act like a bullet for a gun for blasters. You put a Slug in the canister, put the slug and canister in the hole, and shoot. Once a Slug after being fired reaches 100 miles per hour, it transforms and unleashes powerful attacks." I said putting a tazerling in a canister and putting it in the blaster.
"So what do they transform into?" Twilight asked taking notes on the Slugs.
"That's the fun of shooting them. After they've been fired, if they have a good bond with you they somehow jump back to you." I said pointing the blaster at a metal target.
I fired the blaster as the tazerling begins to transform. As he holds his right stub out in front. A blue light covers him as he does a backflip.
As he transformed he let out a lightning bolt on the target causing it to explode.
"Cool!" Ash, Flare and Tora said as Kalista and Burner squawked in excitement. Soon after the tazerling begins to hop back to me as I put him on my shoulder.
"Whoa. That Slug's got some power." Rainbow said excited.
"Yeah especially if the target exploded like that." Pinkie said bouncing around in her seat.
"What about this yeti looking one?" Gilda asked handing me a frost crawler.
"Sure, frostcrawlers can make solid ice on any surface or in the air to help out in the fight." I said putting the frostcrawler in the canister and in the blaster.
"Oh let me shoot it this time. Please Keshaun?" Pinkie asked getting in my face.
"Sure." I said handing her the blaster.
"Try to be careful Pinkie." Gilda said as I walk over to everyone else watching.
"Don't worry Gil. I'll be fine." Pinkie said spinning the blaster before blaster as Pinkie is launched back a few feet.
"Pinkie!" Gilda, Fluttershy, and I screamed as the frostcrawler transforms and turns around creating a slide of ice stoping the recoil.
"Weeeeeeee!" Pinkie said sliding down the ice slide.
"Pinkie, are you okay? Does anything hurt? Do we need to heal anything? Do you need to taken to a hospital?" Fluttershy, Gilda and I asked as I grabbed Pinkie off the ground.
"Yes. No. No. And no." Pinkie said smiling.
"Sorry about that. I guess the recoil was a bit on the heavy side." I said scratching the back of my head.
"We can tell." Justice and Twilight said sarcastically.
"Anyways I'll try to fix the recoil and try again later." I said heading to the hyperbolic time chamber.
"Hang on, I want to see one more." Pinkie said bouncing around as the frostcrawler jumps in one of the canister.
"Fine one more and I will be fixing the blasters." I said loading Burpy and the canister in.
"Ready Burpy?" I asked him as he chirped meaning yes.
"Then let's go!" I said shooting him out as he transform before doing a barrel roll covering him in blue fire.
(Pretend the fire is blue)
"Incredible." Twilight said looking at Burpy as he does a few tricks before turning back to normal.
"That. Was. Awesome!" Rainbow said squeeing with excitement.
"Glad you all think so. Now I got to fix the recoil on the blasters as well as give the new paint jobs." I said as the Slugs jump in my pockets.
"Guess they like you." Justice said looking at a few of the Slugs.
"They like all of us. Slugs are really friendly creatures. If you don't want to shoot them they make great pets." I said opening a gate.
"Don't wait up." I said heading inside.
