Five Nights of Determination

Ok so here it is chapter 10, this is the point where things get real, no more beating around the bush as it were, it's time to bring the 3 universes together, it may take a couple of chapters but with each chapter some big will happen, let's get started then

Chapter 10: the fight begins

The training continued, everyone knew the stakes and how much more powerful the threat has become, through fighting both Baby and Ennard they knew that if they are to stand a chance of winning they'll need their powers more then ever so they didn't stop training, just to make sure they knew that their powers would actually do something they partnered up again and gave it their all to practice their skills on each other, Cyril even went as far as to use a Westland Wyvern with rockets and bombs as well as the 4 20mm cannons to completely destroy Oscar, but Oscar being the smart Owl that he is used sound waves to blow them all away.

They kept on training harder and harder only stopping when Vincent got a craving for another banana pizza, Chica was more then happy to cook one up, she was getting used to his silly laid back attitude and everyone even tried out the pizza, they thought it was actually very nice, but after that they went right back into training, some of them even got so into it that they even blow out into an all out brawl starting with Tina and Lenny, even Mangle took on Toy Bonnie while Toy Freddy challenged Finn, for a while even Pamela chose to fight with Opal and Ashe, but the big show was with the rematch of Mike and Chip.

Mike: "so once again we face each other in this our most troubling time"

Chip: "indeed, I can see you have gotten stronger, but so have I"

Mike: "then come and prove yourself to me"

Mike and Chip stood right next to each other, looking into each other's eyes they could see the real human inside, they powered up letting their auras surround them, once they had boosted their powers to a certain point they backed off and stared each other down, they seemed to be as confident as ever, if anything they had kept their powers ready for anything, they just underestimated Baby, but now they were ready for their own fight, they rushed at each other at an intense speed, only being stopped by their strength to hold each other back, they stood there smiling while pushing at each other with their arms, they then pushed each other off and then started to go at each other with such speed and power the rest of the crew could barely keep up.

Their punches were so hard that they created shock waves that everyone could physically see, they were flying at each other with such force even the Marionette was surprised they didn't break any bones, they hadn't even used any of their aura powers yet, it was like they were only warming up, yet if they went any harder they could do some serious damage, but just then they went for it, a flurry of aura missiles, rockets, bombs and one final attack, something they haven't done before, they absorbed their auras and used it to charge up a super powerful attack, cupping their hands together they formed their auras into a ball of light and dark energy then launching them forwards their energy clashed and Chip noticed just as he was launching his energy they had entered a Dragon Ball Z beam struggle.

Their energies were very powerful just like their Yin Yang shield, in fact because they were so powerful and evenly matched their powers combined at the conversion point and created a surge of power coursing some kind of explosion that knocked them out, everyone came rushing to their aid as they came crashing to the ground, despite the devastating power of the blast they both seemed to be ok.

Mangle: "oh Chip, are you ok?"

Chip: "hey, did anyone ever tell you, you are the most beautiful angel in the world?"

Mangle: "well no, but plenty have called me the vision of beauty and grace before, but I'm glad you're ok"

Chica: "Mike, Mike wake up"

Mike: "aww, I had the best dream, you and me were sitting on a grassy cliff and looking down at the sea, we watched as the people below went by and the world was moving so slowly, it was like paradise"

Chica: "well that does sound nice"

Mike and Chip were fine but worn out so along with their girl friends and Vincent they sat at the table and chewed down on the banana pizza, it seemed all was winding down from the long day of training, but there were two competitors left on the floor to finally fight it out and find out who was the best leader with in the Freddy and Pete rivalry, Freddy and Pete stood off at each end of the dining area ready to take each other on for the crown of best mascot.

Freddy: "so it has finally come to this, you and me, one on one, you shall feel my true power and be amazed at my feats"

Pete: "you have no idea, the power I wield shall overcome you and be your down fall, want me to go easy on you?"

Freddy: "there is no going easy, there is only one winner and if you go easy you shall lose, I will not be easy, I will win"

Pete: "then draw, you and me"

They stood at opposite ends of the dining room, they tried to loosen up by cracking bones and relaxing their bodies, there was even a moment of no one moving, like they had frozen in time, the only thing that made them look alive was the subtle movements of their bodies as they breathed, but then with out warning they dashed at each other and the lights went out, no one could be seen but as Pete dimmed the lights to nothing he used one of his powers to let everyone see what was going on, it seemed Freddy didn't need the light to see where Pete was, he could see what was about to happen just before it did, his time powers gave him an edge in predicting where Pete was going to be and what he was about to do, but for how useful it was it wasn't very reliable, it was still only a sneak peak into a possible future and only about a second away, Pete's ability to change light however was far more trustworthy and Pete could actually see where Freddy was, so Pete could hammer on Freddy far better then Freddy could fight back.

Freddy had to think for a moment, after their last adventure he promised he wouldn't use his time powers anymore, the risk of destroying the universe had become much greater after all the saves he had to perform and it was stretched so thin that even the simple act of love can rip it open, for now the universe is still stable, but how long can that last, Freddy thought for a moment and came up with perhaps one move that can work, using the localized time pockets he got from Starlight, using them he managed to through one at Pete just as he was about to strike with a heavy blow, Pete was hit with the time pocket and he started to get younger until he was a little Panda Cub.

Freddy: "hah! Look at you, you've turned into a cub, that's so cute"

Foxy: "well would you look at that, well hello there little lad"

Pete: "what! What have you done to me?"

Sarah: "oh my goodness, he's so small I can pick him up"

Pete: "I would say this is embarrassing but I… I think I like you being taller then me"

Mangle: "so precious, can I have one"

Freddy: "sure"

Just for fun Freddy then used a time pocket on Toy Bonnie, he then turned into a Bunny Kitten and he started to cry out for someone to hold him, oddly enough Mangle started to cry too, perhaps it was her reaction to how cute he had become or was just some underline motherly instinct that had been dormant, she held him in her arms and he cosied up to her and started to fall to sleep, he also seemed to keep his head on her chest, to which Vincent started to feel light headed again so he just ate more pizza, but for how cute the scene was for both Pete and Toy Bonnie the time pockets aren't very stable and dissipate soon after, Pete finished off hugging Sarah and got back into the fight.

Pete: "you know you really shouldn't have done that cus now I'll show you what I'm made of"

Freddy: "go on then, I'd love to see what you've got"

Pete then did something new, it was almost the same as what Moonlight did when Freddy turned him into a Colt, he floated up into the air and an aura surrounded him, it was a dark aura more intense then Mike's own darkness power, Pete's fur then went black but it left his hands and feet white and an area around his neck was also left white, his eyes were glowing white as well, suddenly all light in the room was gone, the only source of light now was Pete's glowing eyes and fur, he spread out his arms and legs so they would make a perfect 4 corners, the light within Pete then got brighter and it shot out like a beam of light, light blasted out of Pete's hands and feet, landing on Freddy like a focal point.

Freddy was being blinded by the concentration of light, it felt like he was being incinerated by it, it was so intense he swore he himself was turning into light, but that would mean he was being subjected to raging heat which would surely mean he should be dead right now, but all that happened was his fur was lighting up much like Pete's, he had only one option to stop this, create a time dilation field, so with his own power at max he created the field which stopped Pete in his tracks, Freddy opened his eyes to see the Pete was still firing the light at him, he was surprised to know that his light wasn't a continuous stream rather a pulse of light that shot out very rapidly, being that Freddy was the one to create the time dilation field he could enter it freely without him transferring over to that time scale, so with a good karate chop to the back of his neck Freddy then dispersed the field.

Pete: "aaaauuuhhgg, right in the neck, who did that"

Freddy: "(whistle) over here"

Pete: "wait, but… how?"

Freddy: "time powers remember, I had to be careful of course, didn't want to go and course time to collapse or anything"

Marionette: "very effective work Freddy, well done, I think if you use your head like that as we move forward, this monster Dr. whoever he is, will have a hard time dealing with us, I'm sure the 3 universes will be alright too"

Finn: "speaking of, should we go see the others too, if this has some thing to do with a monster then perhaps this could involve the ponies too, we should get them all together and take out this threat"

Lenny: "good thinking, what do you think?"

Marionette: "yes, indeed, just one question though, Vincent, have you ever been through an inter dimensional vortex?"

Vincent: "well no, but I have often thought that I may have come from a completely different universe, wonder which one though, anyway it would be cool to see new worlds, sounds like fun"

?: "well then you won't mind if I but in and take your place"

Springy: "not you again, thought you were already destroyed"

?: "you'll have to try harder then that"

Mangle: "Baby!"

Baby: "the very same, but with a few mods to boot, oh and it seems the Dr. isn't the best at reconstructing robots so you can call me Scrap Baby instead"

Marionette: "your existence is most annoying, allow me to put you out of our misery"

Mangle: "no, allow me"

Oddly enough out of all the commotion between Freddy and Pete and then the arrival of Scrap Baby, no body had noticed that Toy Bonnie was still just lying in Mangle's arm still as a little Bunny, sleeping away like nothing was happening, that was until he was awoken by Mangle.

Mangle: "I don't know what's going on, the time pocket should have died off by now but I'm loving how cute you're being, right now though I need you to send this reject back to where it belongs"

Toy Bonnie then stirred, he woke up and jumped onto the ground letting himself wake up, after a moment of just looking at Scrap Baby a pink glow started to form around him and he grew up back to normal size, Toy Bonnie was himself again but something had changed about him, like Pete earlier his eyes had started glowing but this time they were bright pink and had a bit of pink steam coming from the corners of his eyes, like Sombre would have if he used his dark magic, there also seemed to be a pink diamond shape on his forehead, everyone else looking at him would say he got a love power boost from Mangle.

Toy Bonnie: "you people just don't get the idea do you, you're supposed to die when we kill you"

Scrap Baby: "that's rich, coming off a bunch of kids who stayed alive only to die like 3 times, who are you to tell me when to die"

Toy Bonnie: "we are the one's who will protect others from you"

Scrap Baby wasn't having any of this nonsense so she came running at Toy Bonnie hoping to use her claw to crush Toy Bonnie, however he used his ice to make her slip, the ice was a slight shade of pink and was extra slippy, the funny thing was it that she had roller skates for shoes and she had already shown how she can roll around with only a small amount of effort but on the ice she fell over and Toy Bonnie let Robin and Monty pound her, they punched hard trying what they could to turn her into dust, but despite this she was quite durable, they even tried to possess her and make her crush herself using her claw, but try as they might it seemed that Baby had the upper hand, that being the only hand she had left, she kept pushing the claw away and she even over come what possession they had over her.

After she blow them away Toy Bonnie assaulted her with waves upon waves of ice, she tried to move out of the way but Toy Bonnie was putting it on thick and fast, her leg got caught and soon she was up to her neck in solid ice, Foxy came in to taunt her a little but then added to her dismay by using his fire powers, he launched a continuous stream of fire that spun around the ice burg containing the young girl, soon, just as the ice had melted, the fire burnt down and Foxy got closer, it seemed that she had disappeared, no where in sight, but out of nowhere she came at Foxy and swung her huge metal claw at his head knocking him out but as he was falling to the floor she grabbed him and through him to the ground.

Sarah: "oh you are seriously asking for it, Toy Chica you're with me"

Toy Chica: "got ya girlfriend"

Sarah: "Morice, go invisible, if she does that again I want to know that she didn't just disappear"

Morice: "got it"

Sarah: "Pip, help out Toy Bonnie"

Pip: "right on dude"

Sarah: "Toy Freddy, time to make an earthquake"

Toy Freddy: "hell yeah!"

So the team got to work putting down this menace, Toy Freddy put he's best foot forward and created earthquakes measuring around a hefty 9.2, massive vibrations were sent everywhere, Sarah and Toy Chica used their sharp leaves and feathers to slice Scrap Baby up, every time she tried to dodge or just get out of the way Pip and Toy Bonnie would freeze her in place but she'd always break out, however Morice started to put her in her place, Stuart even had chance to steal a few punches while everyone wasn't looking, Morice could even confirm along with Bonnie using his psychic link that she can go invisible too, she was getting pummelled to bits, but that wasn't to say she was going down, in fact she fought back with as much intensity as they were, she knocked down Stuart again and even as Foxy came to she tried to hold him for ransom.

Foxy: "you do realise none of us have any money, holding me hostage like this is a complete waste of time"

Scrap Baby: "curses, you're right, but maybe there's something else I can hold that is more valuable to you"

Mangle: "not my Toy Bonnie, or Finn, or Chip"

Scrap Baby: "no something a little more… yoink!"

Vincent: "Hey!"

Springy: "she stole the pizza!"

Scrap Baby: "I think it's time you all got together once again, then we'll see how much wrong you've done, not just to me but to everyone you love"

Scrap Baby then created an inter dimensional vortex and jumped through, Freddy and the Marionette could see some kind of shield around her just as she jumped in, it protected her from the forces needed to keep the vortex open and thus got through unharmed, Freddy was scared, how was she able to create a vortex, why did she have a vortex shield, what on earth could this mean, he was so scared what was about to happen.

Freddy: "everyone, follow that purple guy forsaken thing NOW!"

Vincent: "wait we are going to a new universe"

Marionette: "you aren't scared are you?"

Vincent: "well no, it's just like I said, I've always thought I came from a different universe, I think it's just getting a bit real for me"

Springy: "she stole the banana pizza, you can't let that stand"

Vincent: "you're right, I will never let that stand, the pizza is mine!"

So while saying that last bit as if he was singing an opera, Vincent jumped into the vortex and started his travel into a new world… at least to him, the Marionette made sure that he was the last one to go through the vortex so that he could close it off as he past the event horizon and so coursing the closing process to begin.

(ok so here's something new, background music prompts, now play Ascent, it's the closing music track from Of Beauty and Rage by RED)

While in the vortex they noticed that as they travelled they didn't see any branching paths to other universes or any wondering travellers like the Doctor, Doctor Whooves or even Klonoa, it was all baron and even the vortexes usual blueish purple was a more deep yet sharp red, the vortex was playing music, a very sad kind of music, with pianos, violins, cellos and at one point in the music it sounded as if there was a crowd of people either being angry or scared and running away, it was hard to make out but from what they could tell the music could be a sign of very bad things to come.

The music steadily got louder as they travelled through but as they got closer to the end the music started to get quieter too, once they reached the end they all jumped out and onto the ground of Pony Ville, for once they all landed on their own feet… aside from Vincent who landed on his face with Springy sitting on his head.

Vincent: "well this certainly looks heroic now don't it?"

Vincent's voice was muffled by the ground and his own face.

Springy: "I don't know, I bet I look really cute don't I?"

Toy Chica: "that does look really cute actually"

Chica: "pfft, no… that's funny, hahahaha"

Freddy: "guys focus, we're in Pony Ville now and there's an absolute freak out here that needs to be sent back to hell, we have to find her before she does any damage"

As soon as Freddy was done talking there were screams coming from the centre of the village, so the crew made their way to the sound and tried to catch Scrap Baby in the act, the end has begun, the Freddy crew have finally been brought into Pony Ville and it don't get much better from here, what awaits them in the future, only time will tell.
