The Plot Thickens:
Canterlot Courtyard
18:00 Hours
Sanguine leapt out of the way of the first few flurries of blows from the changelings swiftly. More and more of the swarm pursued him and attempted to exchange blows, but Sanguine appeared to be dodging and dancing through all of their attacks like he wasn't even there.
Sanguine, being as snarky as he was, took the time to piss off as many changelings as he possibly could.
"Hey you!" He said pointing to one.
"Who, me?" The changeling said
"Yea, you look like a professional blind date!" Sanguine yelled
"GGRRRAHHH! I'LL MAKE YOU EAT THOSE WORDS!" The changeling yelled as he hailed his comrades over to him to attack Sanguine once more.
"You'll have to catch me first! Whoop-whoop-whoop-whoop-whoop!" Sanguine yelled in comic fashion as he sped off around Canterlot with the swarm in tow.
Meanwhile in Ponyville
Twilight was actively studying more and more books trying her best to find a slew of specific spells when her thought process was cut-off by the sound of someone violently knocking on her door.
"I'm coming, i'm coming, hold your horses!" Twilight yelled down in mild irritation, as she opened the door Applejack came crashing in, yelling about a multitude of things.
"APPLEJACK!" Twilight yelled,"slow down alright, now tell me what's wrong."
"Canterlot's in trouble again!" She said between breaths
"Again?! This soon?!" Twilight exclaimed in disbelief.
"Sanguine went up there to see what's wrong, but I think there's something horribly bad going on up there." Applejack said
"Alright, let's go." Twilight said,"but we need to grab Rainbow Dash before we go, she's the best fighter we have next to Sanguine."
The two ponies left the treehouse in a rush in search of RD, as they ran to get to her house they happened to meet her half-way.
"Rainbow Dash!" Twilight said,"Canterlot is-"
"Is in trouble I know." Rainbow Dash said,"I was on my way to tell you, but here you are."
"Well we need to move, NOW." Twilight urged.
"What about the other three?" Applejack asked
"There's just no time we have to move immediately." Twilight said,"Rainbow Dash, can you tote Applejack?"
"Alright, I'll try." She responded as she wrapped her hooves around Applejack and began to get some air.
"Don't make this weird," Rainbow Dash said
"Can it Rainbow." Applejack said in annoyance
The three took flight and tried to keep in pace with each other as they flew as fast as they could to Canterlot. On the way they noticed Fluttershy also making her way up there as well.
"Fluttershy?!" What're you doing here?" Rainbow Dash asked
"Oh, hi girls," Fluttershy responded,"My animals told me that Canterlot was in deep trouble again, I tried finding Twilight, but Spike told me that she and Applejack already left to go there, so I took off by myself, but now were all together again!"
"Well, the more the merrier." Applejack said,"Let's go..."
Canterlot Courtyards
19:00 Hours
Sanguine
Sanguine was fighting off the multiple changelings that threw themselves at him in a very efficient manner. He Space Jam slammed a changeling on the snout that sent him flying into a building, he thunder-clapped another one on the head that sen him withering to the ground, and punched a few others hard enough to send them flying into other droves.
The four of them touched down as Sanguine took to the skies to fight some of the airborne changelings that were taking his form to mock him.
"Sanguine!" Twilight yelled up,"It's us, we're here to help!"
Sanguine looked down at the mares and waved at them.
"Oh hey guys! What's up?" He yelled back
"Sanguine, behind you!" Rainbow Dash yelled after him
Sanguine looked back in time to see a changeling drop kick him.
"GOTCHA BITCH!" It yelled after him.
Sanguine began plummeting to the ground and hit it with a resounding thud. Twilight gasped a little, but Sanguine stood back up unscathed.
"Long time no see, what brings you by?" Sanguine asked all smooth-like
"We came to help you cause it seems like you're havin' a hard time fighting these darn things." Applejack replied
"Nah, no need to help," Sanguine said,"In fact I was just finishing up!"
The changelings began to dive bomb after Sanguine whilst roaring various battlecries. Sanguine took a low stance and cusped his hands behind him as he began charging up energy.
"You guys might wanna stand reeeally far away for this one." He said,"KAAAAA...MEEEEEEHHH-
"What's he doing?" Rainbow Dash asked in confusion.
"I have no idea, but we should listen to him, c'mon!" Twilight said as the four distanced themselves.
The changelings continued to get closer.
"HAAAAAAAA...MEEEEEEEHHHH-
"This one's for that blind date insult!" One of the changelings yelled
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Sanguine yelled as pure blue energy rocketed from his hands that encompassed half the city block. The giant laser enveloped the first few changelings, the others in the back of the rush had a change of heart and began flying in the opposite direction, but it was no use, the beam soared upward and caught every changeling in its path into a world of hurt.
Sanguine decided enough was enough as he detonated the beam and sent the changelings flying from the nuclear sized explosion in every direction. Sanguine marveled at his craft and began slow clapping as a rainstorm of dead and injured changelings began plopping all around him in a flurry.
"Heh...heh heh ha ha..ha HA HA HAAAAAHAAHAHAHAHAAHHAAAA, if the gods of all that is awesome did not think that this deserves a perfect 10, then may they strike me where I stand." Sanguine announced with pride.
The rest of the changelings not caught in the fire storm backed away from Sanguine in fear.
"Aww hell nah that ain't happenin'!" One said as he took off.
"Man, the dark lord don't pay me enough to deal with this!" Another said as he took off with a bunch of others.
The surviving masses eventually fled towards the Badlands and were out of sight in seconds. Sanguine strolled over to the castle entrance and waited.
"Well?" He said gesturing over to the four,"You girls coming or what?"
The four of them slowly began walking with Sanguine, still visibly astounded nonetheless.
"S-Sanguine..." Twilight said slowly,"I had no idea you were capable of that much sheer power."
"Well ya know, training does that for you." Sanguine replied casually as the party reached the castle's foyer.
"T-training...just training..." Twilight slurred as she was trying her best to understand what she saw,"T-that was more powerful than ANY alicorn magic I've seen. Even the princesses magic at full strength doesn't even come close..."
"She's really passionate about magic." Fluttershy whispered to Sanguine
"I can see that." Sanguine whispered back
"How." Twilight said flatly
"Uhh pardon?" Sanguine responded
"How do you have that much magical power, I-it's not conceivably possible in any way!" Twilight pleaded
"It's not magic Twilight, it's something much more powerful." Sanguine said
"Blasphemy!" Twilight said,"There's nothing more powerful in this realm than the arcane."
"Well, there is now. It's called Ki." Sanguine said
"Ki?" Twilight inquired
"Indeed," Sanguine replied,"Ki is a mystical energy that binds all living things together. It's made up of things like courage and willpower and those, like me, with the proper training can weaponize their ki into powerful attacks and moves into order to strengthen their overall physicality."
"This ki sounds like quite the piece of work, tell me more!" Twilight said with very obsessive interest.
"Later, first we have to save your princesses, don't ya think?" Sanguine said as the five made it to the throne room entrance.
"Now if my calculations are correct, which they usually are, kicking open the door will be just as effective as last time!" Sanguine said with glee as he poised to kick the door down.
"NO Sanguine wait!" Twilight exclaimed.
"What is it?" Sanguine inquired, turning his head to Twilight.
"Look at the door and tell me what you see." She said
"Hmm, door sealing magic!" Sanguine deduced,"Looks like they were expecting us."
"So now what do we do?" Fluttershy asked
"Betcha 20 bits that they won't expect us to come in from the roof." Sanguine suggested
"Or I could disenchant the door sealing magic and we could WALK in." Twilight corrected
"At a time like this!?" Sanguine proclaimed,"yeah, screw that noise, I'm coming in from the roof, meet you in there."
Sanguine dashed out a nearby window and flew his way up to the roof, he got himself ready and blasted a big hole in the rafters. Sanguine landed gracefully in the throne room and outstretched his arms above him.
"TA-DAH!" He yelled.
"Sanguine! You're here!" Celestia said with relief.
"Seriously, we need to stop meeting each other like this." Sanguine said
"Agreed, now can you help us fight these guys off?!" She replied
"Sure thing." Sanguine replied somewhat evily as he began walking toward the two assailants.
He remembered Chrysalis, but could not make out the large and somewhat foreboding centaur.
"Chrysalis, a pleasure as never." Sanguine said
Chrysalis took on a look of utter terror as she began getting Vietnam style flashbacks to all the horrible memories he implanted in her head, she began backing off slowly. Tirek took notice of this and growled in annoyace.
"How can you possibly fear this pathetic scoundrel?! He barely measures up to my hoof." He spat
"Yo, Longhorn Steakhouse! Yeah, I'm talkin to you!" Sanguine said,"You wanna find out tough guy?"
"This will be no trouble at all..." Tirek smirked as he slowly stomped over to where Sanguine was and faced him.
As the two fighters face off in battle for the good of Ponyville, Canterlot, and all of Equestria. How will Sanguine and his friends fare against the tyrant known as Tikek once more? And how does this all involve the doings of the mentioned Dark Lord? FIND OUT NEXT TIME ON
Dragon Ball Z
TwoFatNinjas again,
So more story stuff, the plot continues and there is a dark puppet master that is pulling all the strings! Spoooky, but the time for spooky was during Halloween. It's nearing Christmas time now and in lieu of the holidays I will be releasing a one chapter story detailing the time Sanguine saved Christmas in Ponyville. It should be released by Christmas Eve or Christmas Day, depending on my schedule, but either way expect an exciting christmas story relatively soon.
As always stay Frosty(the snowman),
