Back in the kingdom of Yaksha, Houndoom was making his way to the king's chamber. "M'lord. I apologize for locking you in your room, but note it was for your best interest." he said opening the door, only to see him gone. "M'lord?" he questioned before seeing a rope on the window sill. "Damn it!" he shouted before running out.

"Mandibuzz, get in here!" Houndoom shouted. Mandibuzz quickly flew in. "Yes, general?" she asked. "Care to explain why our king is missing?" he asked.

"That rascal tricked me! He said he was going to behave, but as soon I left, he used his Illusion ability to become one of our soldiers and climbed out the window." Mandibuzz replied. "Damn it. Get every soldier in the kingdom. They are not to rest until he is found!" Houndoom shouted. "Tyranitar, you lead them to the school and crush any hero or villain who stands to lay as much as a hand on him! I'll have the Houndour, Poochyena and Mightyena scope the forests and city."

"Understood. I was hoping to get out of the castle." Tyranitar said.

"And you have permission to demolish that school if you have to." Houndoom said.

"I dont crush buildings, Houndoom, that's what Gyarados does when he's mad. See, there's this one hero that may be there in the school that I want to fight, and he's the one who conquered Pugilis singlehandedly." Tyranitar said.

"You are referring to Ranma Saotome, the one who defeated Gurdurr in the ring. Fine. You may eliminate that one. It would give us a good excuse to invade Pugulis later on." Houndoom said.

"Not to mention an extremely good reputation. Get ready, Ranma, for you now face a Pokemon that can mega evolve!" Tyranitar said.

Speaking of Ranma, we now see him with the girls as they prepare for the next round.

"Why the heck did I agree to this again?" Ranma said.

"Cause Gajeel got tired of chasing off sabotagers. And what if someone stronger than Gyarados shows up? We need an iron wall to fend them off." Hope said. "After all, you took down Gurdurr in Pugilis, and became the first human ever to master Pokemon moves."

"Yeah. Gurdurr was something else. I needed to be stronger. If it wasn't for Elekid, I don't think I wouldn't have had a chance against him the second time." Ranma said.

"Speaking of Elekid, did he mention what world he was heading too?" Hope asked.

"Nope. He just left one day. He told me he hitched a ride on Pugulis and wanted to journey for a while." Ranma said. "But back to the Subject at hand. From what Sunset told us, Flux is planning to control every dimension with the Siren's singing, and is hoping on unleashing it all at the finals."

"If Flux succeeds with this, no world is gonna be safe." Jexi said. "Me and Hope are gonna duck out so we can find and destroy this super speaker of his. Just keep the girls safe."

"Gotcha." Ranma said, but then they bumped into Flash Sentry and his band.

"We really need to stop bumping into each other like this." Twilight said.

" Uh, you guys hear something?" Flash said. His mates responded with a no.

Twilight was confused. "I said, We have to stop—"

"There it is again. So annoying." Flash interrupted.

"Hey, what's your problem, man?" Ranma asked.

"They're the problem, two-face. I wanted this, and now Twilight has to come in and ruin it." Flash replied.

"Not her fault you got eliminated by the Dazzlings. Now, just run off before things get real ugly." Ranma threatened.

"You think she's helping you? I bet she doesn't even know what she's doing, so she should just-" Flash was stopped by Hope as he touched him with his ring. On contact, all the negative influence and green smoke flew out of Flash and dissipated. Flash then fell to the ground unconscious. "He'll be fine after an hour or two." Hope said. "When he wakes up, he'll be purified of the Sirens influence."

"Good. You just saved his face." Ranma said as he dragged Flash to a gym corner. "So, now that that's over with, what song are you girls gonna play for the Semi-finals?"

"Awesome as I wanna Be by...Rainbow Dash." Twilight said.

" Huh? Doesn't Fluttershy write songs, too?" Ranma said. " I looked at one of them, and it looked amazing."

"I know. But for some reason, Rainbow Dash wants to do her own thing." Twilight said.

" The sirens might be getting to her, then." Jexi said. " It's only a matter of time before she does something reckless." Just then, Jexi's communicator began to vibrate. "Hello? What? We'll be there." Jexi said. "We'll have to put the speaker on hold. Something huge is going on in town." Jexi said.

"What is it?" Ranma said.

"One of Yaksha's generals, Tyranitar, is causing trouble downtown, and it looks like he's looking to fight you." Jexi replied. "If you don't show, he'll have his troops destroy everything in sight. You need to go, now."

"I'm on it. Just in case, tell Juvia to meet me at Tyranitar's location, I think we could work well together." Ranma said.

"Works perfectly since he's a Rock-type. I'll let her know. You can find him in the town square." Hope said.

Ranma sped off to the center of town, and on the outskirts, saw Juvia waiting for him. "Ranma, hurry!" she shouted. "Tyranitar's getting reckless. He might actually hurt someone if we don't stop him, like my Gray." she informed him as they ran into town to see several soldiers running across the alleyways and streets. It was only a matter of time until they found Tyranitar.

"Ranma Saotome, at last I finally see you in person. I am Tyranitar, top battle commander of Yaksha, and soon to be known as the one who defeated the Champion of Pugilis!" Tyranitar said. "I witnessed your fight with Gurdurr. Amazing. A human who can master pokemon moves. Ever since I saw you land that final punch, I couldn't get it out of my mind! I had only one obsession: find and defeat you with my own hands!"

"Now youre getting your wish." Ranma said. "Is it okay if I have a partner?"

"You could have an entire army if you wish, the results will not change the outcome. According to the rules of conquering by our kingdoms, once I beat you, I become Pugulis's new king. I will force them to absolve their alliance with Aurora and join Yaksha instead."

"I'm not letting that happen! Jexi made a promise to his long-lost sisters and I intend to keep it!" Ranma said. "Meteor Kick!" The kick landed on Tyranitar's chest, not doing any damage. "Was that supposed to hurt?" he asked. "A flimsy kick like that isn't enough to even scratch my armored body!"

"How about this then? Water Slicer!" Juvia said. The attack hit Tyranitar dead on, causing him to stumble back. "Ah, yes. The water girl. You fought with Chandelure and Dusknoir during the first conquering attempt on this world." he said. "I'm at a disadvantage against you, but let's see if this can change that." he then pulled out his mega stone, slamming it into his chest. "Beyond Evolution! Mega Evolve!" he shouted as a sphere surrounded him. It then shattered to reveal him with spikier armor and let out a ferocious roar. "I was already powerful without the stone, but let's see how much I change with it! Hyper Beam!" A purple laser blasted out of Tyranitar's mouth and towards Juvia. The beam hit her dead on as she screamed.

"Juvia!" Ranma said. "No. Gotta stay calm. Hyper Beam has to let the user rest for a while before they can attack again." Ranma thought. "I have a small opening right now, but I only have mastered Fighting type moves. But Tyranitar also has dark type traits. I know just the move for this job. The same one I used on Gurdurr to finish the match."

"You gonna make a move, or what?" Tyranitar said.

"Guess it's all or nothing!" Ranma said as he ran toward Tyranitar with his fist glowing. "Dynamic Punch!" The attack hit Tyranitar dead on, but he didn't even flinch.
"Pathetic. This is the same Ranma that defeated the King of Pugilis? The one who's supposed to be respected? Truly you are weak. This is how a Dynamic Punch should be done!" Tyranitar launched his own version of the move, Ranma barely dodging as it hit the wall behind him.

"Soon Pugilis will be ours! But first, you have to die! Giga Impact!" he shouted charging at him at top speed. Just when it looked like Ranma was finished, Tyranitar was kicked away by none other than Sanji.

"You! Youre the one who beat Dusknoir! How did you come here so quickly?" Tyranitar said.

"What do ya think you're doing, idiot?" Sanji asked Ranma. "How could you let this happen to Juvia?"

"It wasn't my fault. It was his." Ranma said pointing to Tyranitar. "But it looks like shes okay, so you wanna double team this guy?"

"He just hurt a beautiful woman. I can't just let something like that slide." he said.

"You always did have that kightly aspect. Now let's show this guy what happens when you mess with us!" Ranma said.

"I couldn't agree with ya more. Besides, I think it's time we show this guy what happens when you mess with a prince and his martial artist sidekick." Sanji said as he lit a cigarette.

"Perfect, I can take Pugilis and Black legs 77 million Beli bounty all at once!" Tyranitar said. "So you know about that huh?" Sanji asked. "Guess it gives me more of a reason to kick your ass. I wouldn't forgive myself if Juvia saw my poster. My reputation as a pirate is far more worth than that bounty!"

"Get mad at me all you want, it still doesn't change anything! Earthquake!" he shouted as the ground shook. As he looked back, he saw Sanji running towards him in midair. "He's walking on air?" he questioned.

"That's my Sky Walk technique! Now to cook you! Diable Jambe!" he shouted as his foot ignited as he kicked Tyranitar in the chest.

"Wait, this actually does hurt." Tyranitar thought.

"Keep your eyes on your opponents! Thunder Punch!" Ranma shouted as he punched him where the kick landed.

"This is the first time in quite a while that I've actually felt pain. I acknowledge you as warriors, Ranma and Sanji." Tyranitar thought as both fighters came in for their final attacks.

"Poele a Frire Spectre!" Sanji shouted, delivering multiple kicks to Tyranitar

"Thats right. Give me all you have! Warriors!" Tyranitar shouted.

Ranma dashed in for the final blow as his fist glowed brighter than before. "It's over! Rock Smash!"

Tyranitar then gave a small smile as he fell to the ground, defeated.

"That was a great battle, Tyranitar. Thank you." Ranma said, securing the Tyranitarite.

Ranma, Sanji, and Juvia hurried back to the school just as the Rainbooms started their number.

The Rainbooms:

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Rainbow Dash:

Awesome as I wanna be!

The Rainbooms:

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Rainbow:

Awesome as I wanna be!

First you see me riding on a sonic boom,

Got my guitar, shredding up the latest tune

There is nothing you can do to beat me

I'm so good that you can't defeat me

Rainbooms:

Yeah, I'm awesome, take caution

Watch out for me, I'm awesome as I wanna be!

Yeah, I'm awesome, take caution

Watch out for me, I'm awesome as I wanna be!

But the song didn't get far before Sunset noticed the pony ears beginning to appear on Rainbow Dash. Having no time to do anything, she tackled Rainbow Dash to the ground causing a chain reaction.

"Wow, what an evil thing for Sunset Shimmer to do. She's going back to evil!" Flux shouted in the crowd.

"I knew she was still trouble!" Shouted Octavia from the crowd.

"We should totally ignore her for the rest of her life!" shouted a random student.

"The real Sunset Shimmer is back!" Shouted another.

As the crowd insulted the Rainbooms further, the others met up backstage.

"What the heck was that for?" Rainbow said.

"You almost revealed your magic. I-I didn't know what else to do!" Sunset said.

"And now we're gonna get booted out of the contest. Thanks a lot!" Rainbow added. But then Medaka came up on stage.

"After some deliberating, we've come to a decision. The Band that will be going to the finals is… The Rainbooms!" Medaka announced.

Everyone was in shock. Even the Rainbooms were, but then Medaka gave Hope and Jexi a wink.

"You guys see that? Medaka bought us some time! Were still in!" Rainbow said in excitement.

"And we still have time to find Flux's speaker. Let's hurry to his ship." Jexi whispered to Hope.

"Yes, we'll thank her later." Hope said as the two ran off into a nearby forest. Along the way, they ran into Zorua.

"Oh great, it's the leaders. You might as well end it now." Zorua said, depressed.

"End it? What do you mean by that? Who are you?" Jexi asked. "That's Zorua. He's Yaksha's current king." Hope informed him.

"But he's only a child! I cant hurt him!" Jexi said. "Look, we won't hurt you, but tell your forces to pull back and free Umbreon from captivity. Wait, why are you even here anyway?"

"I heard about this show, so I wanted to see it for myself." Zorua said.

"That's it?" Hope asked.

"Hey, I can be curious if I wanna, right?" Zorua said. "But youre right. My antics are getting in the way of Conquest, so I'll stop fighting you and free Umbreon."

"And I want you to join your kingdom with Aurora. If you do that, we'll let you watch the show as much as you want." Jexi said.

"You really mean it? It's a deal!" Zorua said with excitement. "But, Houndooms probably mad at me. I ran off when I was suppose to be in my room."

"You what?" Hope said, but then Houndoom ambushed them.

"So, you did kidnap the king after all." Houndoom said.

"What? No! This is a huge misunderstanding!" Jexi said.

"Houndoom, stop! I'm sorry I ran, but I just wanted to have some fun." Zorua said.

"Sharpedo was right after all, you're still a child. And a child is in no position to lead Yaksha." Houndoom said. "Be warned, Heroes. Tomorrow at night, we will attack this dimension with everything we have, and shroud this world in utter darkness. I am now acting king, so consider yourself detained, Zorua! Farewell!"

Meanwhile in another part of the forest, Kumagawa and Laylamon were watching the conflict with Shadow Sunset Shimmer. "Hmm. Seems my little shadow was weak against them after all." Laylamon said.

"Your shadow? You sent that?" Kumagawa asked in surprise.

"Yes. It's one of my abilities. Its called Shadow Weaver. With it, I can create a shadow version of anyone I desire."

"Regardless, the stage is set for a triple conflict. Shall we enter the fray as well?" Kumagawa asked.

"Hehehe!" she laughed. "We? What do you mean we?" she asked, confusing him.

"I see, from the beginning, I was just your pawn. You have no use for me at all now." Kumagawa said.

"Afraid so. I just needed someone to get me as close as possible to the school. Now that it's over, I have no use for you. But, your shadow on the other hand…" she grinned as several strings came from her fingers and touched Kumagawa shadow. It lifted it off the ground, but it stopped in midair.

"You have no control, over a minus like me!" Kumagawa said, and broke free of Layamon's grasp. "Tsk, tsk, boy. You realize I still have that friend of your presidents in my custody. Fight me now and he's as good as dead."

"What, you mean him?" Kumagawa asked, pulling out a card. In it was the image of Zenkichi Hitoyoshi.

"Yes. It's the whole reason I had you working for me. As a demon lord, I need leverage when dealing with pathetic weaklings like you humans."

"But now that I have it, you dont have any power over me." Kumagawa said. "Oh, and before you try anything, look above you."

"I don't need to. I know about your ability. To erase any sort of existing object or concept. All Fiction if I'm not mistaken." she said.

"So you know of that ability? I didn't say I was using that one. There's another one that allows me to create. Its called Book Maker, and I just sealed your doom with it."

"Oh, my. Such a cocky young thing. But, I haven't shown you everything in my little bag of tricks. Empress Glare." she said as he eyes shined, nearly blinding Kumagawa. When he could see, he found himself on the campus of his own school. "What? I'm back? But...how?" he asked himself. "Tsk, she must've teleported me. No matter, I got what I came for." he said as he began to walk off. "Kumagawa!" shouted a voice. He turned around surprised to see Medaka before him. "Medaka? But, how are you-" he questioned before feeling a sharp pain in his stomach. He blinked once to see he was still in the forest and with Laylamon's claw's going through his body. "How did you...do that?" he asked weakly.

"Empress Glare allows me to fool my prey into a false sense of security by using their most cherished memories. They're so busy staring into space, they can't even see the attack coming." she grinned pulling her arm back as Kumagawa fell. "This is farewell, nothing." she said before vanishing into the darkness. But as Kumagawa fell, he disappeared, and another one appeared behind it.

"I said I used Book Maker, but I didn't say what I did with it." he said. "Still, I underestimated her. She'll kill me if I go at it alone. I hate to say this, but it looks like I'll be teaming up with Heroes again."
