Chapter 19: New Enemy
Hey everyone I'm back with a new chapter. Sorry about the wait but I was struggling to come up with ideas between Friendship Games and Legend of Everfree and thanks to my friend Nitro Zeus I figured some out. I hope you like what I have planned. Sorry this one is a little short. Please Review and Enjoy.
In an old cavern in Slugterra, a faint light was shining from the top of it as multiple slugs hopped towards it.
Looking up they saw it was the same cavern Dana used to get to the surface. Chirping all the slugs looked to each other before discovering multiple holes that all led in one direction, up.
Meanwhile up on the surface, Eli was climbing out of the sewers with something in his hands.
"Glad the Shadow Clan was able to get you for me." Eli said opening his hands to reveal Doc who was happy to be out and about. "I got a feeling Luke will be really happy to see you again."
Making his way to Sweet Apple Acres he arrived to see Luke and Kord waiting in a clearing with a timer in their hands.
"What's going on?" Eli asks when they stopped him and bursting out of the trees was Rainbow on her mecha beast with Applejack and Sonata right behind her.
"Whoo! Eat my dust losers!" Rainbow cheers.
"Not if I have anything to say about it!" Applejack said when Pinkie Pie, Sunset and Rarity came in from behind them with Twilight and Fluttershy bringing up the rear.
"Slow down!" Twilight said as she and Fluttershy were having their mecha beasts just walk.
"We're not ready to go fast like all of you." Fluttershy said.
"Seriously? You two have some of the most awesome rides in the world and you're moving at a snail's pace." Rainbow said as they looked down to see Rainbow's tortoise Tank walking faster than them.
"You girls really need some practice." Luke said walking over.
"Sorry I guess I never really thought I would be riding something like this." Twilight said.
"Come let's take a break." Luke said offering a hand and helping them off their mechas.
Taking a break all of them drank bottles of Apple Cider when Eli walks up to them.
"You all aren't doing half bad, but even so there's only so much you can do without Luke helping you girls." Eli said.
"Well he can't really do much with a broken arm." Applejack said.
"Which is why I went to get someone." Eli said holding up Doc causing Luke to smile.
"Doc." He said as the slug waves at him happy to see him.
"Whoa, what's that one?" Sunset asks interested.
"Doc's a healer slug. He even has the power to cure ghouls." Eli said impressing them. "But today he's gonna be healing someone else."
Loading Doc into his blaster he aims him at Luke surprising everyone.
"Wait what are you—" Before they could finish Eli fires Doc. Transforming Doc latches onto Luke's arm creating a bright green light.
When it died down Doc transforms back to normal and hops off Luke and he was able to move his arm again surprising everyone.
"Where has this slug been all my life?" Rainbow said impressed.
"The doctors said it would take at least a month to even move your arm again, how did he do that?" Sonata asks as Luke moves his arm around.
"Doc is the best healer around. At first we just used him for slugs but when Luke started slinging Doc decided to up his game to help me take care of my son." Eli said as Doc brushed it off like it was nothing.
"So how much longer do we get to have the Shane Gang around to train us?" Pinkie asks.
"Actually, we have to head back by the end of the day." Trixie said.
"What? But we were just getting started." Twilight said.
"I'm sorry but Slugterra needs us." Pronto said.
"Now that Luke's all better he can take over training you girls along with Eli's dad." Kord said.
"But I kinda liked having you all here." Luke said sadly.
"Sorry Luke but duty calls. Want to walk with us back to the Drop?" Eli asks and Luke nods.
"Come on Burpy." Luke said as Burpy hopped onto his shoulder and they walked away.
Meanwhile at the harbor in some worn-down buildings a manhole opened up and from it over a dozen slugs popped their heads out curious of their new surroundings when a shadow appeared over them.
Turning around the slugs looked up to see a girl with purple skin, red hair, and a scarred right eye.
"Hmm now what do we have here?" She asks bending down and picking up an Armashelt when it noticed a slingshot strapped to her hips and points to it.
Looking at the slug curiously she grabs her slingshot and loads the slug inside it. "You want to go flying, fine it's your funeral."
Flinging the slug her eyes widen in shock as it transformed and blasted a giant hole in a building. Looking down at the other slugs she saw they all smiled eager for the chance to battle and a grin formed on her face.
"I don't know what you little things are, but I've got a crew that would love your talents." She said picking them all up and carrying the slugs away to an unknown location.
Making their way down into the sewers Luke and Burpy said goodbye to everyone once again.
"You stay safe Luke, keep the fight going up here." Kord said as they fist bumped.
"I will Uncle Kord." Luke nods when Kord pulls him into a whisper.
"And between you and me that Applejack girl is quite the tough one, she might make a pretty good girlfriend." Kord whispers.
"Wh-What?" Luke said surprised.
"Just think about it." Kord said as he walked away and Pronto walks up to him.
"Well my brave and strong nephew I must bid you adieu." Pronto said.
"Good luck O' Great and Amazing Pronto." Luke chuckles.
"By the way if anything happens between you and Fluttershy I want to be the first to know." Pronto smirks when Trixie grabs him and yanks him out of the way.
"Fluttershy? Are you nuts? Luke needs a girl who can take care of him and can handle herself not the other way around." Trixie said.
"Oh so who do you think Luke should date?" Pronto glares.
"Easy, that Rarity girl is the perfect example of a caring and kind girl that's perfect for my boy." Trixie said.
"Mom." Luke said embarrassed beyond words.
"Okay Trixie now I know you're talking crazy because Applejack is the perfect girl for Luke." Kord said.
"Fluttershy!" Pronto yells.
"Uh guys, I don't really think who Luke dates is up to you." Eli said.
"Thank you, dad at least you understand." Luke sighs.
"Besides I'm pretty Sunset Shimmer is the perfect girl for him." Eli smirks.
"That's it! Bye see you soon! Love you all!" Luke said pushing them towards the Drop.
As all of them climbed inside Eli hugs him and Trixie kisses his forehead before they got in.
"Keep a close eye on his Burpy." Eli said as Burpy waved goodbye.
"Love you Luke." Trixie said.
"Love you too." Luke said as Eli pressed the button and they all dropped down towards Slugterra.
Once they were gone Luke sighed. "Burpy sometimes my family is really embarrassing."
Burpy rolls his eyes saying no duh as they made their way home.
