Welp, took a while but finally getting more chapters of this fic out!
Me and Qazse just had a blast working on this and I had to stop and laugh a few times while writing this.
When it comes to pure fun I think this fic might take the top of the list.
But I'll leave that for you to decide, also sorry for any bad grammer as my usual proof reader isn't a fan of these two franchises and I didn't wanna force him to read something he wasn't interested in.
But I'll leave it to you guys to judge this fic for yourselves, I hope you enjoy!
"Entrapta slow down! You're gonna slip!" Adora called out to the purple haired princess as she and the rest of her team carefully walked down the ice stairs to get to the bottom of the canyon while Entrapta was quickly running down so she can reunite with her one true love, technology. After getting sucked in by a strange rift that was created between a mix of a Horde core and First One Technology, they ended up in some desert in the middle of nowhere and after miles of waking came across a box canyon that might just have people that can help them living in it. "Still can't help but wonder why there's a base out here…think it's one of the hordes?"
"I don't think so, it doesn't have any of their symbols." Bow pointed out as he looked over the base they were descending closer to. The horse ALWAYS put their symbol on anything that belonged to them and while there was a lot of red on that base, it wasn't exactly horde red. "Besides why would the horde want this place? There's absolutely nothing here."
"Who knows if we're still in Etheria." Perfuma muttered with a bit of a worried tone. The plant princess tried to stay positive about this whole ordeal but it was getting harder by the minute. While they did finally find some trace of civilization, who knows if anyone was here. Like Bow said, there was absolutely nothing around here so who would even stick around? "Plus I'm sensing a lot of negative vibes here…"
"Would you relax, you're probably just hungry," Mermista rolled her eyes as she crossed her arms under her large breasts as she walked down the ice steps. Mermista was actually managing to remain calm during this whole situation. Things always seemed to work out for them so far no matter how bumpy it gets, so she just needs to keep going along and she was sure they'd be back home in no time. "We won't know until we check things out."
"Uh Frosta, are you ok?" Glimmer asked the youngest princess in the group. Frosta wasn't looking so good as her face was red and she was breathing heavily. "You look kinda red."
"…So…hot…" Frosta breathed out as she didn't know how much longer she could go on. "Everything…blurry…"
"Probably because you're wearing a thick coat in the desert." Adora pointed out as she quickly helped Frosta by taking off her coat, cringing a bit at how much sweat it gathered up, and left Frost in a simple blue short sleeved short. "Seriously why do you even wear this? You're immune to the cold aren't you?"
"No…I'm not…" Frosta revealed, coming as a surprise to everyone. They all thought due to have ice powers she couldn't get cold herself. "Why do you…think I…wore the coat?"
"…Fashion?" Perfuma gave a sheepish smile as Frosta glared at her.
"Well you just cool yourself off, we'll wait for you down there." Glimmer told Frosta, the ice princess nodding her head and quickly sitting down and using her ice powers to send out gust of ice wind right at her face. "Ok so first things first-"
"Sweet! Sweet! Technology!" Right as everyone but Frosta made it down the ice stares and were now in the box canyon, they all saw Entrapa cuddling with a jeep…or more specific an extremely beat up jeep. It seemed to be a four-seater green jeep with a really big gun mounted to the back. But it's definitely seen better days as numerous parts were broken off, dented, experiences blast damage, and looked like it wouldn't be hitting the road anytime soon. "Oh how've I missed you, I promise never to go more then thirty minutes with technology ever again."
"…She's spooning a broken jeep." Mermista deadpanned at the sight as everyone else either gave the scene blank looks or uncomfortable looks. Deciding to just leave Entrapta there to do…whatever she was going to do with that jeep, Mermista looked to the entrance she found to the base. "Well let's see if someones home."
"Oh there are definitely people here," Entrapta told everyone as she continued to cling onto the jeep as if it was her lifeline. "All these dents are rather fresh! They've been here a couple weeks at the most, and there are some tools here that look like they've been recently used."
This news brightened up everyones spirits, if Entrapta was right that means there was probably still people here! People that would help them! "Come on guys! Maybe they're in the base!" Bow was quick to take the lead as he rushed forward into the base with everyone else quickly following. "Hello! Is anyone home! We need some help!"
But as Bow called out, he got no answer. The entire alliance, minus Frosta, entered the base and continued to call out to whoever might be here. But they still got no answer. But upon entering the base, it gave them more hope that there was people in this canyon even if they weren't in the base right now. There was a large table in the back of the room along with a still functioning computer. And right in the center of the room was a 6-foot-high flagpole with a bright red flag attached to it. "Well this is a military base alright," Adora deduced, knowing these types of flags well. "Ok, Bow go to the top of the base and see if you can spot some people from there."
"Right!" Bow nodded as he looked around and spotted some stairs that led to the roof of the base. He had the best eyes of the group so if anyone could spot some people in the distance it was him.
"Ok, now I think it's safe to say we're all starving." As if on cue, right as Adora said that everyones stomach rumbled at once causing all the girls to blush and hold their bellies. "…I'll take that as a yes. So let's all look around for some food. There's gotta be rations or something around here."
Most of the princesses didn't object to that at all. They were all starving and incredibly thirsty so the faster they could find food and water the better. However, Perfuma wasn't incredibly comfortable with this idea. "Um, isn't it kind of rude to take someone else's food?" The plant princess asked as everyone else continued looking everywhere in the room for food. "I know we're desperate but that's stealing."
"Relax Perfuma, I'm sure it's ok." Glimmer reassured Perfuma as she found some boxes and went to see if there's food in them. "I mean once they understand our situation I'm positive they'll be ok with us just taking a little bit, I mean you do it in your kingdom. Giving food and drink to wondering travelers."
"I suppose that's true." Perfuma thought about it a little bit and decided to help look. Luckily there was vegetation outside so if she could focus her powers she could always grow some more food to give them as payment. "I am really hungry…"
"Wooooah, guys check this out." Glimmer reached inside of the box and pulled out, not food, but some sort of gun-like device. They've seen plenty of blasters before during their fights with the horde but none quite like this. It was a lot thinner and smaller and was primarily colored silver. "I think it's some kind of weapon. There's a label on the handle, M40 Pistol. Wonder how it works."
"Just try not to kill us," Mermista told Glimmer in her usual sarcastic tone. Glimmer inspected the gun a little bit before finding the trigger. Clicking on it, a loud bang was emitted from the device that caused everyone to jump up in fright as a bullet fired out of the pistol, just barely missing Perfuma and creating a tiny hole in the wall. "…Like that."
"Sorry…" Glimmer smiled sheepishly at Perfuma, who sent Glimmer a light glare before going back to looking for food. But while no one was looking, Glimmer couldn't help but wiggle her fingers as she felt a tingling sensation after firing the weapon. 'Felt weird but…kinda good…' Making sure no one was looking, while whistling casually, Glimmer put the pistol into her pocket.
"Guys! Look what I found!" Adora smiled as she found a cabinet labeled 'Rations' and in that four boxes with names labeled one them. Taking out the box labeled 'Grif' Adora opened it and found a whole of food. From MRE's to something called Oreo's. "Man there's a lot in here, I remember ration boxes from being in the Horde and if we ever got to a point where we filled them this much you'd get in serious trouble."
"So a food hog huh? Welp, sure he won't mind us taking from his stash," Grabbing an MRE, Mermista was quick to start helping herself to some food. But before opening it, Mermista went over to where she was looking and grabbed onto a latch she found and revealed a secret compartment that held a bunch of water bottles. "Also a found this secret stash of water bottles with my powers or whatever,"
"Why would they hide their water?" Glimmer asked as she took one of the bottles.
"Maybe to keep thieves from finding it?" Perfuma guessed as she reluctantly caught a water bottle tossed to her after taking an MRE. "Maybe taking their food is a mistake…"
"Perfuma, it's fine. We'll find whose living here and explain everything to them." Adora put a hand on the plant lovers shoulder before grabbing a couple more MRE's and water bottles. "Look you guys just eat, I'm gonna go hand these out to Frosta, Entrapta, and Bow. Once we eat we have to look for whoever lives here and then it's back home."
Adora then headed towards where they entered the base and went back inside, wincing a bit as the bright light hit her eyes. "Hey guys we found some food and-what the?!" Once Adora's eyes once again adjusted to the brightness she saw that, in the short time they were in the base, Entrapta had completely repaired the broken jeep they found. Not even a single dent was on the vehicle and it looked as good as new, if not even better. "We were only in there for like five minutes!"
"I know, I'm already getting rusty." Entrapta frowned a bit as Adora face palmed. She then looked to the side and saw Frosta still sitting on the ice stairs she made, which were now starting to melt, with the ice princess looking to Adora and simply shrugging. At least she didn't look like she was suffering from heat stroke anymore. "Gotta keep up my skills, is there anything in there worth fixing?"
"I mean there's a computer in there but-"
"Great! Thanks Adora!" As soon as she heard the word computer Entrapta completely tuned out anything else Adora said as she sped past her, grabbing an MRE and water bottle from her as well, and went into the base. While what she got was far from her preferred food of tiny snacks and fizzy pops, even she wasn't air-headed enough to turn down any form of food in this situation. "I wonder what it's like."
"…You're welcome." Adora simply sighed as she went over to Frosta. Looks like her time in the Horde hasn't changed Entrapta one bit, although Adora didn't know if that was a good or bad thing given how Entrapta usually is. "You doing ok Frosta?"
"Yeah feeling a lot better now, consider I live in the moments I never really thought of using my powers to cool myself." Frosta said as she took the food from Adora and cringed a bit at the MRE. Frosta had one before and…that was much more then enough for her. Still, beggers can't be choosers. "Find anyone inside?"
"No but there are definitely people in this canyon. Everything looks recently used and the foods still good so that's a plus. Bow's keeping looking for anyone that might be here." Adora explained to the ice princess who looked down a bit in response. Adora could feel that the 12-year-old was feeling a bit distressed and put a hand on her shoulder to comfort her. "Hey don't worry, we'll get out of this I promise." Looking up towards the top of the base, Adora called out. "Hey Bow! See anyone yet?"
"No! Not yet!" Bow yelled back to one of his best friends. He also caught the MRE and water bottle Adora throwed him. "I'll let you guys know when I spot something!"
Bow sent a thumbs up as Adora went back into the base so she could enjoy her own MRE and water. When inside she saw everyone eating, as well as Entrapta fiddling with the computer with Mermista glaring at her and deciding to join in as she opened up her own MRE. "So you guys find anything else in here?" Adora asked as she quickly started to chow done.
"No, pretty much decided to eat considering we're starving and everything," Adora gave Mermista a blank stare. Leave it to Mermista to continue to be sarcastic when they're all stranded in a box canyon. "Just watched as Ms. Traitor start messing with the computer."
"Mermista please, calm yourself." Perfuma tried to keep Mermista from acting like that with Entrapta. Yes she did help out the Horde a bit but to be completely fair they did leave her behind and just assumed she was dead. "She probably had no choice, we don't know what it was like for her over there. The point is we have her back and we should be grateful."
"Yeah, lot of good having her back while we're who knows where," Mermista rolled her eyes and continued eating, Perfuma puffing her cheeks out due to Mermista's negativity.
"Hey guys! Check this out! I found out where we are!" Entrapta spoke up, getting everyones attention, as she looked up at the computer and saw the canyon they were in from a birds eyes view. It seemed there was an identical base on the opposite side of the canyon. "According to this computer we're in a place called Blood Gluch Canyon."
"Blood Gulch?" Perfuma rose her eyebrow, the name not familiar to her at all. "I've never heard of that before, have any of you?"
"Nope." Mermista bluntly answered as she took a drink of water.
"I know every spot in Etheria and there's no place called Bloodgulch." Glimmer told everyone with a frown on her face. This whole situation only got more worrisome as they were in a place that wasn't even on the Etheria map. "What about the desert? It should be called the Crimson Waste right?"
"Let me see….." Entrapta typed a few keys on the computer to see the name of the desert they were just travelling through. But what Entrapta saw left her eyes widened a bit. "Um, no it's, uh, not called that. Pardon my language but according to the computer the desert we were just in is called, and pardon my language, the Dead as Fuck Desert."
"…" Everyone else was stunned silent at the name of the desert with all of them, except Mermista who was the only one unaffected, having widened eyes with Perfuma even covering her mouth.
"Yeeeeeeah, last I checked there's no place in Etheria named that." Mermista pointed out as she finished up her MRE.
"And I think I know why," Entrapta continued typing keys on the computer…and suddenly a virtual imagine of what looked like a solar system appears. It showed various planets with one planet having a green ring around it and labeled as Armada 4. "I don't think we're in Etheria…I think we're in an entirely different planet."
"W-What?" Perfuma questioned as they were all, including Mermista this time, was taken aback by this statement, refusing to believe. "But that's…impossible. Right?"
"No it isn't, look. All of these planets have names and are labeled as being safe for habitable according to this data. The planet were on is called Armada 8." Entrapta explained to everyone as they all got up and looked to the computer so they could see it for themselves. "Got a lot of places that are labeled as safe to go to. Sidewinder, Chorus, Gao, Mesa, Troy, Earth. All of these planets are labeled as explored and safe to live on. Granted Sidewinder is said to be super cold but hey Frosta deals with."
"So let me get this straight, that rift sent us to another planet. But th-that's…impossible…right?" Adora tried to understand how this all worked in her hand, and for some reason this whole situation was giving her the weirdest case of déjà vu and she had no idea why. "Well…can you find Etheria on there? Maybe its close by. If whoever's here has figured out space travel then maybe they can give us a space…travel…thingy."
"The proper term is spaceship and let me see." Entrapta managed to find something called "planet search bar" and typed in Etheria's name. With any luck this will show them where their planet was…but it didn't. To everyones shock when Entrapta typed in the name all they got was some sort of error massage and a bar that said 'Planet not known' "It would appear that Etheria is labeled as undiscovered, I can't find it anywhere on the data base."
"B-But how? That shouldn't be right." Glimmer shook her head as her nerves started to get the best of her. Today she was not only sucked into some sort of rift, she was stranded in a desert, had to wonder around in the hot sun for four hours, and now she found out she was on an alien planet with no idea where her home planet was. This was quickly becoming overwhelming and Glimmer just couldn't believe it. "There has to be some mistake, right?"
"I don't think so, I think I know what's going on…" Entrapta put a hand to her chin as she formed a hypothesis in her head about what their situation could be. "I've heard stories about how the First Ones may have dabbled in teleportation technology. If that's true, then it's possible the parts I used for the core were used in that technology and when Bow shot his arrow into the core, the power released overloaded everything and created that rift and when it sucked us in, it took us here. And if I'm right then we're possibly in another universe or even maybe a completely different dimension."
To say they were all shocked by this information was a complete understand. They just began wrapping their minds over the fact that they were on an alien planet and apparently there were a bunch of other planets that have been explored may even be habited. But now they could be in an entirely different universe or dimension…it was all too much. "I don't believe it…" Perfuma muttered in a shaky tone.
"I know…IT'S INCREDIBLE!" Entrapta suddenly gained a giant smile as her eyes sparkled. Everyone's jaw dropped at her reaction as she started to use the computer to look at the names of all the other computers. "Just imagine all the possibilities! If this universe has space travel imagine all the other technological wonders! It could be even more advanced then the First Ones! Oh just thinking about its making me excited!"
"Yeah you probably could build a lot of stuff. Like, I don't know, a way home!" Mermista finally snapped a little as she glared at Entrapta. While the water princess was usually able to keep calm even in intense situations, after the dumped of information they just received, she was about at her limit. "Can you freaking get us to our own universe or dimension or whatever?!"
"Hmmmm…possibly?" As she rubbed her chin with one hand and put the other to her hip, she used her pigtails to continue fiddling with the computer. "Depending on the technology here I can in theory recreate the exact energy waves that were caused in the cores reaction and create a rift back home. But it could take a lot of time."
"So we're stuck here for a while…geez…" Adora sighed as she scratched her head rather roughly. None of this was good, while they were stuck in the middle of the box canyon in a place that was called literally dead as f-word desert, a war was taking place in Etheria. Not only that but she didn't have her sword with her, meaning it was stabbed into the ground in the middle of a Horde Base. "What are we gonna do?"
But before anyone could answer, "GUYS COME UP HERE!" Bow's voice yelled out to them from the top of the base. "WE FOUND SOME PEOPLE!" At hearing the news that Bow spotted the people living in this canyon, they all wasted no time head for the roof of the base…except Entrapta who had to be pulled away from the computer by both Glimmer and Mermista by her will.
Upon reaching the roof of the base, they saw both Bow and Frosta looking off into the distance at the opposite side of the canyon, "Look!" Frosta pointed in the direction she and Bow were looking. "There's a bunch of them!"
"Probably around eight from what I can tell!" Bow pointed out as everyone looked forward they tried to see the people Bow and Frosta were seeing. It took a moment or two, but eventually everyone caught glimpse of a gathered-up group of people near the second base in this canyon. They see them too clearly, but they were people alright. "There really are people here!"
"Well what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Adora was quick to act as she jumped down from the top of the base, landing on her feet, and quickly started running to the other side of the canyon. "We gotta go get there help! Maybe they have a way of getting use back home!"
"Right behind you Adora!" Glimmer was the first to jump down after Adora with everyone else soon following, hoping that these canyon dwellers would come to their aid.
Soon enough, the alliance made their way all the way over to the opposite side of the canyon where there was another base that was pretty much identical to the one they were just at. Only difference was that all the red parts were blue on this base. But just as they all saw, there was a bunch of people gathered up there. They were all wearing some sort of high-tech armor, which Entrapta was practically drooling over, and were split up into two groups. On the left side was a person in red armor, orange armor, maroon armor, and pink armor. On the right side, there was someone in blue armor, dark blue armor, aqua…teal…turquoise…whatever color armor, and purple armor.
The team was extremely relieved to see there were other people in this canyon, but before they could get their attention, "So, we agree to the terms?!" The man in light blue armor called out the other group of four people.
"Get on it with it Grif," The man in red armor, who had an old gruff voice in a southern accent, told the one in Orange, whose name appeared to be Grif which was also the box the alliance took food from.
The one known as Grif sighed heavily as he stepped forward and looked at the opposing group. "I would just like to let everyone know, that I suck...!" At hearing this, Adora and the others got extremely confused.
"And?!" The one in light blue yelled out.
"And that I'm a girl...!" Grif yelled again, further confusing the alliance. Although Mermista got a little giggle from that.
"What else?!" The one in light blue expected more.
"And I like ribbons in my hair, and I want to kiss all the boys...!" That seemed to be in as Grif looked down in shame and backed up.
"This might be the greatest surrender of all time Simmons." The one in red told the Maroon one, revealing his name to be Simmons.
"Couldn't agree more Sarge," Simmons laughed, revealing the red one's name to be Sarge. Simmons then looked to the other group and asked, "Okay, is that good enough Church!?"
"Yeah!" The one in light blue armor, now known as Church, confirmed before turning to the one in purple. "Alright go-ahead Doc,"
Just as the one in purple armor, apparently known as Doc, ran towards the other group the alliance was looking confused over the whole ordeal. "What…just…happened…?" Bow was the first one to speak up after the whole ordeal with him and his friends all have a weirded look outside, although Mermista shouldn't but smirk at what she thought was a rather humorous exchange.
Bow's words ended up being heard by the people in armor as they all looked in the direction of the alliance and, though all their faces were hidden behind helmets, they all seemed quite surprised by the presences of the new group of seven people suddenly here in Blood Gulch. "What the-who the fuck are all of you? Why the fuck are you?" Church spoke up, his language rather crude, as he looked over the group. "And what's up your outfits? Most of you look ridiculous."
"Church you're one to talk Church, Tex told me about that outfit you wore on casual Friday's." The one in aqua colored armor told Church. For whatever reason all of their heads bobbed up and down when they spoke.
"What?! When did she-just shut the hell Tucker!" Church told the one now known as Tucker in an incredibly pissed off tone before looking back to the alliance. "Point is, who are all of you and what are you doing here?"
"Are they back up?" Simmons asked as he turned to Sarge, his group equally confused to Adora and her friends being here. "Did you call them here Sarge?"
"What are you crazy? They're a bunch of girls! Except for that one." Sarge yelled harshly at Simmons as he looked over each one of the members of the alliance. He then stopped at Bow and seemed to inspect him for a few seconds. "Although that's debatable."
"Hey…" Bow muttered out in a slightly offended tone.
"Hell, we'd have better luck sending Grif into battle!" Sarge yelled as he looked between Grif, who was still looking plenty humiliated, and the alliance. But the more he did so, the more Sarge hummed in thought. "Then again…maybe I shouldn't be too quick to judge."
"He did admit he was a girl Sarge," Simmons said while chuckling making Grif groan.
"Hehehe, that he did Simmons. That he did," Sarge laughed loudly as they kept replaying the memory in his head over and over again. "And I shall cherish that memory for as long as I live."
"Yeah fuck you guys too," Grif cursed at them in an angry tone, making a few members of the alliance cringe at their language with Perfuma covering Frosta's ears.
"What about you Doc? You know em?" The pink armored man asked Doc before looking back at the alliance. "I gotta say this canyons really been needing a feminine touch. Especially from some really pretty females too!"
"Aw, thank you," Perfuma said in a flattered tone.
"You would think that Donut," Grif shook his head at the one now known as Donut…of all names.
"No they're not with me," Doc told everyone as he was just as confused by the presence of the alliance. "I came her by myself, I thought I would was the only one coming here."
"Besides, who cares if they're woman! That's great! Especially those two, they are thick as fuck!" Tucker said as he checked all the girls, minus Frosta, out while looking at Entrapta and Mermista for an extra few moments. Mermista narrowed her eyes at the guy she was quickly figuring out was a pervert as Entrapta rose a brow and simply raised her breasts up a few times…with her pigtails. The sight of Entrapta moving her hair like limbs kinda being offsetting to the other 2 groups. "Woah…ok that's kinda freaky. But eh, I'm not one to judge if it means I can finally get rid of my rock then I am down!" Tucker then turned over to a rock nearby the base labeled as 'Tuckers Rock. Stay Away' and had a strange odor coming from it. "Sorry rock, it's not you. It's me, we both knew this wasn't meant to last. We we're both meant for bigger and better things."
"…He's only said a few things and I already hate him," Mermista bitterly said as she crossed her arms under her breasts while glaring daggers at Tucker.
"I don't know guys, what if they're here to kill us…" The dark blue one said in a fearful tone as he backed up slightly. But suddenly the tone around this man, is tone changed from extremely fearful to extremely dark as when he spoke again his voice was extremely deep and menacing. "We should carve out their hearts to save ourselves."
This didn't go unnoticed at all by the alliance as they all felt goosebumps cover their bodies, leaving them to take a few steps back. It appears they weren't the only ones unnerved by this as Tucker looked to the dark blue one before stepping away from him. "Church he's doing it again…" According to Tucker this wasn't the first occurrence of this happening with the dark blue one.
"Ok that's it, Tucker, Caboose, Reds, Doc, all of you SHUT! THE FUCK! UP!" Church snapped at pretty much everyone there, they could all practically feel the rage emanating from him. Church then changed directions so that he was facing the alliance. "Ok, I'm gonna ask one more time and all of you better answer," They all flinched, some raising their hands in the air, as Church pointed his weapon at them which was some long black gun with a scope on it, "Who, the hell, are all of you?"
"Ok, ok, just calm down. We're not here to hurt you guys. We got stranded here today." Adora deciding to take the front in explaining their situation. She rose up her hands to show she wasn't gonna try anything, not that she could without her sword. "Look, I'm Adora and these are my friends. Bow, Glimmer, Mermista, Frosta, Entrapta, and Perfuma." Adora gestured to the respective friend she introduced.
"Those are your names?" Grif asked in a tone of disbelief before laughing, "Hah, those are the stupidest names I've ever heard." However, as the alliance glared at Grif, Simmons cleared his throat harshly before motioning his head towards their teammate in pink, Franklin Delano Donut. "…Nevermind, I take that back."
"…Anyway, look," Adora rubbed her temples a bit before continuing. "Look, we all ended up stranded here after…an accident. We spent hours walking and finally found this canyon, so we're asking if you could help us out please,"
The reds and blues were all silent as they all looked at each other in thought, with Doc just awkwardly backing over to the reds as he really didn't have a say in this, and the alliance giving hopeful looks that these folks have the kindness in their hearts to help them all out.
"NO!"
But to their shock, the men in armor all gave their answer in unison and quickly shut them down. All except one, "Yes!" Donut yelled out before quickly realizing what everyone else said. "Uuuuh…I mean no…no's what I meant to say….yeah."
"What?! But why not?" Glimmer asked with a pleading look. After hearing the situation they were in, how could they not help them out? "We're just asking for a little help until we can find a way back home,"
"Uh, yeah no. Look around sister this a war. Not a charity," Church pointed out in an extremely rude tone. While they were frowning at Church, they couldn't help but raise a brow at what he said. This was a war…sure didn't look like one. "Want help, go to good will or something,"
"But-But please?" Perfuma tried to reason with all of them as she stepped forward. "We don't know about whatever conflict you may have but we're asking you to look deep within your hearts to help us."
"You would like that wouldn't you ya dirt bathing hippie," Sarge told Perfuma making her puff her cheeks out and stop on the ground. If there was anything Sarge hated almost as much as Blue's and Grif, it was peace loving hippies. "This is a battlefield! This is no place for peace and help! Only blood, blood, and more blood! And occasionally a strawberry yoohoo."
"Ooooo, that sounds delicious." Entrapta let out as she could really go for something like strawberries right now, especially after that disgusting MRE.
"Come on guys, they look like they need a hand," Doc spoke up as he seemed to up for helping these strangers.
"Shut up, you're our hostage no one cares what you think," Simmons spoke harshly to Doc.
"Hey you gals can come over to our base," Tucker told all the older girls with a sly voice, trying to hit on them much to the annoyance of them all. Especially Mermista who was tightening her fist. She's had the hit on routine put on her many times by Sea Hawks but at least he was sort of a gentleman unlike this perv, "I could show ya a little something I'm sure you'd all like. Here's a little hint, it's spelled D-I-C-K~"
"Ok that's it!" Reaching her breaking point with this pervert, Mermista held out her hand. Thanks to her powers she was able to sense some ground water and manipulate it and, to the shock of all the Reds and Blues, blasted a geyser right below Tucker that sent him flying into the air flailing around his limbs.
"AAAAAAAAHHHH! SON OF A BITCH!" Tucker yelled out in panic before hitting the ground with a thud. "Oooowww…"
"WOAH! WHAT THE FUCK WAS-AAAAAHH!" Church was then cut off by Mermista using the water she brought up from underground to wash him and Caboose away.
"Alright! Fighting time!" Frosta gained a grin as a cold fist was from her hands. "Aw yeah! Freeze time!"
"Sarge what's happening!?" Simmons cried out in fear as the Reds and Doc started to quickly back away from the scene. From what they were seeing Mermista was controlling the water but…that should be impossible. "I don't know what's going on! All of this should be scientifically impossi-AAAAHH! COLD!" Unfortunately for him Simmons was the first person in Frosta's sight and with her powers she froze everything except for his head and arms.
"Yeah! Who else wants some!" Letting out a battle cry, Frosta charged forward into battle.
"Ok, guess we're righting now!" Despite how Adora wished this to go, Adora charged forward ready to brawl.
"Everyone wait, please stop!" Perfuma told everyone as the chaos all unfolded in front of her. "We need to stop and work out a peaceful solution!"
"Oh of course! Why don't we also have an ice cream social?" Sarge, despite everything that was going on, stopped and looked at Perfuma and quickly started to mock her. Unaware of her eye twitching and the tick mark slowly appearing on her head. "Maybe we can also do each other's nails and plant a patch of pumpkins and ride them to the ball. Or perhaps we could ditch our all cloths and go to a peace rally eating berries and-"
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" Finally Perfuma's rage broke as she made a fist and rose it up causing a fist made out of vines and roots to emerge from the ground and upper cut Sarge.
"Oh son of a bitch!" Sarge let out as the plant bunch flipped him into the air and making him land on his back with a thud.
"YOU MADE ME DO THIS!" Perfuma roared as she made more plants started to emerge.
"Ah! I don't know what's happening!" Doc yelled out in panic as he ran in circles, not really accomplishing anything.
"Woah!" Donut let out, despite the conflict going on Donut stood in place as he looked around at everything happening. "Guys! They must be magic!"
"Magic? I love magic!" Caboose spoke up after recovering from being washed away. "But I notice a distinct lack of rabbits and top hats. And swords cutting people in half!"
"What? Magic doesn't exist dumb ass!" Simmons yelled as he tried to escape the ice Frosta created literally out of nothing.
"I…don't…know…Simmons…" Grif panted out, completely out of breath despite only running around for a few moments. "Fucking ice, water, and plants and shit…looks like magic to me."
"Yeah it's magic," Making the two scream in fright, appearing behind them was Entrapta who was walking around on her pigtails and was giving Grif's armor a thorough look. Clearly curious about this obviously high-tech armor, their armor easily being superior then the armor the horde had and grabbed her tape recorder out of her pocket and shoved it in Grif's face. "But enough about that you gotta tell me everything about that armor. What's it made of? What does it do? Where did you get it?"
"I should I know all that," Grif told her as he shoved her away from him so he could have some personal space, "It's made of metal and shit, it keeps me from dying when Sarge shoots me, and I don't know some army jackass,"
"I see, very fascinating," Entrapta commented, oblivious to Grif's half ass answers, as she circled around him to get a look at every angle of his armor despite Grif's efforts to swat her away. "I wonder if this is the same kind of metal that, that jeep I fixed is made of,"
"Wait, what? You fixed the warthog?" Sarge, after recovering from the plant punch, overheard what Entrapta said and started to grow interested. "Hmmmm…"
"So you can fight without magic right?" Bow asked Glimmer as he wasn't 100% sure how well Glimmer would do in combat without her magic. Most of the time Glimmer always had magic when she was fighting and when she didn't she would usual try and retreat.
"Um…well…" Glimmer spoke up sheepishly, knowing she wasn't exactly that strong when it came to combat without her magic to help. But she just remembered something and quickly reached into her pocket and pulled out the M40 pistol she took from the base. "I got this thing!"
"You stole that?!" Bow yelled with widened eyes.
"Ah, ah, ah, not steal. Borrow." Glimmer then tried to figure out the way to hold the gun but as she was doing so accidentally fired it and shot Grif in the shoulder.
"OW! FUCK!" Grif yelled as he fell to the ground. "WHY ME?!"
"Hey! I got him!" Glimmer smiled as she gave Bow a smug face. "And you thought I didn't know how to use it."
"I…never said that," Bow pointed out.
"Oh my God…they fixed the Warthog AND shot Grif?" Sarge muttered as he looked at his solider squirming around in pain on the ground. So far they matched both of his criteria for a good solider, being able to fix stuff and making Grif feel pain. Maybe it was worth checking them out. "Hold on! We're willing to hear you out…but if you wanna shoot Grif again then that's fine too!"
"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Currently with Church he was also on the ground and was being pinned by Adora who had his arms locked in a painful position. "F-Fine! We'll hear you out too! Just get the fuck off me!"
Adora looked to the rest of her friends and nodded at all of them. They all got the gesture and laid off everyone and backed away to where they were standing earlier. All except Entrapta who Bow dragged away to the spot after she kept examining Grif's armor while he was on the ground with a bullet in his shoulder. "Aaawww…" Entrapta let out as Bow dragged her away.
"Ok…God dammit I hope this body is waterproof…" Church muttered to himself at a volume no one could hear. "Ok…so what's exactly the deal with you people? Because I'm getting the fucking suspicious that you're not telling us a lot."
The alliance all looked at each other before Glimmer stepped forward. "Ok…here's whats going on." Glimmer then explained most of the details about them to the Reds and Blues, where they are from, how they got there, the deal with their powers, and the fact that most of them were princesses. To say they were all stunned was a bit of an understatement. "And that's pretty much it."
"…I'm started to think I'm not qualified to deal with all this," Doc was the first one to speak up after the whole explanation.
"Ok, under normal circumstances I'd call you all fucking insane and shoot you all. But given circumstance…" Church then looked at all the water Mermista suddenly summed underground and how she controlled it, all the plants Perfuma created, as well as Simmons still frozen in Frosta's ice. "I might be inclined to believe you."
"You're all princesses?" Donut asked with amazement in his voice, "Best. Day. Ever!"
"Well that princess fucking shot me!" Grif yelled after managing to stand up, good thing he's a fast healer.
"A princess that shoots Grif, I guess there is a God out there," Sarge commented much to Grif agitation.
"Ok so we told you about us, now what's up with you guys?" Adora asked with a bit of a confused expression as she remembered a comment made earlier by Church about this being a war. "You said this is a war but when we got here you guys were just standing around talking."
"We do, do that a lot." Donut pointed out.
"What are you guys even fighting over?" Mermista asked with a raised brow.
"What are we fighting over? Well let me tell you little missy…" Sarge then looked to the sky and began telling the alliance about why the Reds and Blue were in this fierce battle. "We exist for one reason and one reason, to bring peace to all lands. And how we do that is wiping this blue menace from the face of the galaxy! For years, decades, possibly even centuries, the amazing Red army has been locked in an epic battle with the dirty Blues, both sides constantly fighting over the most treasured items, the flag. The one true emblem that is the source of morality for both armies and the Reds all over the universe are doing what they can to take these flags and leave those Blues with nothing but shattered dreams and false hope…until we kill em and leave them with nothing but their own decaying corpse! And then we celebrate by dancing on their graves."
"…" The entire alliance blinked after Sarge finished his speech, not knowing what to make of it.
"Amazing speech sir, truly heartwarming stuff right there." Simmons complimented his sergeant for his words.
"Thank ya Simmons, put my entire red heart into it." Sarge stated as he continued to look proudly into the sky.
"Cough, cough, kiss ass!" Grif faked cough to Simmons.
"…So let me get this straight, you're whole conflict…is over a flag?" Glimmer had to make sure she heard everything right because if she did…then this was literally the dumbest war she had ever heard of. Granted the only other war she heard of was the one she was apart of on Etheria but still! She then turned to the Blues so she could get their side of the story. "And…what about you guys?"
"Eh, pretty much what he said but replace the amazing Reds and dirty Blues with the epic Blues and stupid Reds." Tucker pointed out which just raised the alliances disbelief.
"Yeah that sums things up pretty well," Church confirmed.
"Oh yeah it's so much fun, we have a good time." Caboose followed up in an idiotic tone. "Especially the parts when there's senseless carnage."
"Church…" Tucker tried to get the crude mans attention due to Caboose once again getting all…villainous.
"That's…that's…that's completely RIDICULOUS!" Perfuma was the one to snap over the completely absurdity of the situation or 'war' as they call it. It was essentially a game of capture the flag but with guns! "You're fighting over some as trivial as a flag! There's no point to this!"
"I wouldn't expect a pot smoking hippie to get the point of war!" Sarge yelled at Perfuma.
"WE JUST TOLD YOU WE WERE IN A WAR!" Perfuma yelled as her face started to go red with anger and frustration.
"Were any of the sides blue?" Sarge asked.
"Uh, no," Bow shook his head, feeling a bit of the same frustration Perfuma was feeling.
"Then it's real war." Sarge told all of them much to their annoyance.
"Ok everyone, I think we need to calm down," Doc tried to play peace maker as he tried to get everyones anger to snuff out. "Maybe we could all try some breathing exercises?"
"Come on don't you guys think this is just…pointless?" Adora tried to reason with them all over how pointless this battle was, ignoring Doc. She liked capture of the flag, it was used for training when she was in the horde, but an entire war over it was just plain stupid. "I mean…literally the only reason you guys are fighting is because you have a red base there, and they have a blue base here. I mean what do you get when you win? Two bases in the middle of a box canyon?"
"Pretty much yeah," Simmons nodded as he continued to try and free himself. "Now gonna someone help me? I think my crotch is getting hypothermia."
"Yep, being frozen in ice will probably do that to ya Simmons," Sarge said to his number 2, not bothering to really help him. He then turned to Adora and said, "And you, I'd watch you tongue soldier. Especially when you're talking to your superior officer!"
"Hehehe…I'm sorry what?" Adora, as well as everyone else, rose an eyebrow in confusion.
"You said you wanted us to help ya didn't ya? Well ain't nothing in life is free! We agree to keep ya here till you find a way back home, then you have to help us with our war!" Sarge informed making their eyes widened. On one hand, they were getting help. On the other hand…these guys seemed far from sane. "So from now on you're members of the Red army!"
"Hey, hey, hold on Red you don't get all of em!" Church quickly stepped in and yelled at Sarge before could take all of them. With Doc on their side the Red team would have 13 members with them leaving his team with just three! No way was that happening! "We're not gonna let the sides get that uneven! Some of them are coming with us!"
"Fine, you can have the two Blues and the hippie." Sarge surprisingly agreed with Church and gestured to Mermista, Frosta, and Perfuma. "I ain't letting any lousy blues are stupid hippies in my army!"
As Perfuma fumed at Sarge, Frosta looked up to Mermista who didn't look to thrilled to be on the same team as Tucker. "Are we really going through with this?" The ice princess wasn't to sure about this whole ordeal.
Adora sighed as she rubbed her temples a bit to keep her head from bursting before looking at Sarge and Church. "Ok, deal. But on one condition." Adora's friends all gasped at her accepting the offer, except Entrapta who seemed to be lost in thought as she looked at all the technology around her that she could experiment with. "You'll help you in your…'war' but you don't make us fight each other. Deal?"
"Fine. Whatever." Church just decided to accept it and get this whole ordeal over with. He then looked over to the three Sarge told him he could have. "You three, over here. You're Blues now." Normally Church wouldn't accept Sarge picking for him, but in this case he was handing Church the three princesses with magical powers. It was like Sarge was handing him an advantage.
Mermista sighed and just decided to go along with it. "Fine, come on girls," Perfuma and Frosta followed Mermista to the Blue's side, Perfuma just glad not to be on the same team as Sarge.
"Alright then let's see here," Sarge then looked to the remaining four members of the alliance. "We'll take pigtails there, the one that fixed the warthog. Aaaaand we'll take the sparkly one that shot Grif, gotta have a Grif shooter on the team for sure. And finally you'll take the one with the large forehead, she's wearing red so she'll already fit in."
Entrapta happily went over to the red side with Glimmer following close behind as she rose her brow, wondering why Sarge was so happy with her shooting one of his men. Meanwhile Adora took offense to Sarge saying she had a large forehead and rubbed it a little bit. "It's not that bit…" Adora muttered as she made her way to the Red's.
That only left one person left. "Hey what about me?" Bow asked as he looked to both of the teams. "Where am I going."
"Hmmmm, good question." Church said as he looked over to Sarge. "We both already took three guy…"
"Why don't you rock, paper, scissors for him?" Caboose suggested before looking to the entrance to the base. "I can go get some sharp ones for stabbing."
"Eh, I'm ok with that," Church was ok with a game of rock, paper, scissors. He also missed the last part of what Caboose said. So turning to Sarge, Church asked, "What about you Sarge?"
"You're on ya dirty blue!" Sarge wasn't gonna back down from a challenge no matter how small and got in front of Church and got in the ro-sham-bo position.
"Rock! Paper! Scissors! Shoot!" Church and Sarge then brought there fist down to see who would win. Sarge choose scissors while Church went with paper.
"Dammit!" Church cursed out at his loss.
"Haha! Score for Red team!" Sarge laughed before looking to Bow. "Alright soldier come on your with the Reds! Get moving on the double!"
Sighing, Bow slumped down and went over to the reds, not believing he was fought over through rock, paper, scissors. "Yes sir…" Bow just went along with it, praying they wouldn't be in this canyon long.
"Well, welcome to Red team guys." Doc gave a friendly welcome to the four newcomers of Red team. "Just be careful, I'm pretty sure they put something in the water here."
"Water?" Grif questioned as he turned to Doc. Meanwhile Simmons was finally free from his icy prison as the hot canyon sun melted him enough so he could free himself. "We ran out of that months ago?"
"What? But we found a whole stash of water in some kind of compartment." Glimmer informed Grif, much to his surprise. "There was quite a lot of it actually."
"Drat! You found the water stash?" Sarge yelled in frustration, he thought he hid that water well.
"Why would you hide the water?" Grif questioned Sarge despite knowing the answer would be something insane or something about killing him. "I've had to live off Ketchup and soy sauce packets."
"I was hoping after long enough you'd die from dehydration!" Sarge yelled confirming to Grif that it was the latter answer while surprising the newcomers. "Now I'm back to square one…"
"…This was a mistake," Adora was quick to regret coming along with this team.
"Alright you three, in the base." Church ordered his three new magical recruits. "We'll get you situated and shit. We got some spare armor in the basement but I'll have put in orders for your helmets." Perfuma, Mermista, and Frosta decided to just go along. Hopefully Entrapta wouldn't take long to make that device to get them back home so they wouldn't have to put up with his for long.
Church however sighed heavily, feeling this would be the start to something big and very annoying. "I can't believe I died for this fucking war…" And with that, Church headed into the base with Tucker and Caboose following.
The alliances time in Blood Gulch was just beginning.
Welp, as you saw in the theme song last chapter, Adora, Entrapta, Glimmer, and Bow are part of the Red team while Perfuma, Frosta, and Mermista are with the Blues. Things were already insane enough in this canyon and now we get the She-Ra cast adding to the mix.
Just me when I saw, you're not gonna miss out on everything that happens XD
So remember to fav, follow, and leave a review and stay tuned for...
