Dragon Warriors

in Heartache

It'a night time in East Liverpool, and the Warriors were on night patrol. And it seems that there's no sign of crime anywhere.

"Anything yet, Alicia?" Connor ask.

"Nothing yet Connor." Alicia reported after going through her gadget that lets her see through security cameras of the city and hacked into the police scanner.

"Well, it's been two hours since we started our night patrol." exclaimed Luu Luu.

"Luu Luu's right, Connor." Grave replied. "I think it's time we head back." he said.

But Alicia's gadget spotted something.

"Guys. I think I got something, coming from the news station." she said.

"Alright, guys. You know the drill." Connor told them, and they headed to the news station.

Meanwhile, the Warriors went into the East Liverpool news station, to find something or someone.

"I don't like this one bit, guys." said Claudia.

"Me, neither. This place is starting to get off." Maia agreed.

"Hey don't worry, you two. We can take care of this no matter what." Vault said.

Then they heard a noise coming from the hall, they took a peek and spotted a goblin carrying some wires as he went through a door.

"And it looks like we can take care of that." Connor smirked.

"Let's burn some troll!" the Warriors called. So they charged through the door, and are now in a set. Then Connor spotted Chloe lounging on a desk.

"And that's the news for destruction, Warriors." said Chloe.

"Alright. What's going on now?" Connor questioned.

"I would like to tell you. But first, why did you transported to Eostia?" Chloe asked, much to his confusion.

"Seriously. That's easy, I tripped and accidentally activated the dimensional gateway." Connor told her, but they heard a buzzing sound.

"Wrong. Now try telling the truth." said Chloe as she got up.

"What!?" he questioned. "I already told you the truth." he told. But they heard the buzzing sound again.

"Where is that noise coming from?" Vault said in irritation.

Then Owen came out behind a background with a machine with him.

"It's a lie detector, Troox is really interested in this kind of stuff, since they came here." said Owen.

"A lie detector?" questioned Connor.

"Yeah. And you haven't been telling the truth, lately." Owen smirked.

"I don't know what you're talking about?" he said.

"Oh, really. What about Crystal Prep's reputation, what about it's high rankings, what about the showcase."

"What's the suppose to mean!?" Connor said as he's getting disturbed by him.

"It means I have the proof in this tape, about Crystal Prep's true colors." said Owen as he shows them the tape, much to the Warriors shock, and much to Connor's horror.

"No!" Connor yelled and he threw his sword to destroy the cable. But Gorg deflected it, and Owen put the tape in and it's now been broadcasted live.

Now everyone around the world is watching the old security cameras of Crystal Prep.

It shows that a group of Crystal Preppers bullied other students and Connor Nickell.

And horrible pranks on each other, and the extra workload.

Pulling other pranks on other schools, like, Canterlot Hihg.

And the other shows is at the backstage of the showcase. Where Neon pushed Connor while Owen is lying down doing nothing, which causes Connor to land on the machine.

And the worst of all, Principal Cinch blackmailed her top student, Twilight Sparkle to compete in the Friendship Games or she'll deny her application to Everton.

Everyone was horrified about Crystal Prep including the East Liverpool Police Department, while Chief Muntz was horrified.

And the most horrified one is Connor Nickell as he collapsed in defeat.

"Now that, everyone knows the truth. They'll see the sadness that I'd endured." said Owen as he laughed evilly, while they escaped.

Leaving Connor looking up, glaring in anger.

So now, everyone blames Crystal Prep for framing an innocent boy and turning into a vengeful lunatic who ruined everyone's lives.

Nean and Royal were playing basketball. Until they spotted some guys and their dragons giving them unwelcoming looks, so they just left. While Vault and Scar looked at it, as Vault shook his head in disappointment.

At the park, Grave was practicing some punches. Then he spotted everyone glaring at Sugarcoat and Indigo Zap for their cruel behaviors, so he just left to find a different place to train.

Beardsley was at the playground, preparing to eat his sandwich. But then he spotted people and dragons shunning Sunny Flare for being an awful person, so Beardsley just threw his sandwich away disheartened.

Meanwhile, the Warriors decided to go to a drink bar to get Connor's failure out of his head. And to their surprise, there's a bunch of Crystal Prep graduates here, and they looked upset since they've became hated people.

So they went to the bar with two people named Don and Elise.

"So, I guess everyone;s here?" said Connor.

"Yeah. They've been kicked out from every place in the city, but we always let people in due to their mistakes." said Don.

Then the crystal ball's been activated, and Connor took it out and shows that William appeared.

"Warriors!" William called.

"Hey, William." Connor gloomily greeted.

"I heard about the Crystal Prep Academy is getting a bad image. What did the people, say?" William questioned.

The Warriors were disheartened by it, and just said...

"Just disappointed." Vault exclaimed.

"They were so despised, I can't even train." Grave spoke.

"And I just lost my appetite." said Beardsley.

"Yeah." Connor agreed. "Everyone saw what Crystal Prep did was, unforgivable." he said.

"Forgiveness takes time. Remember Connor, everyone needs to think if people can be forgiven." William reminded.

"Oh, yeah. Well they won't be forgiven for the next, five years!" exclaimed Connor.

Then the door opened, and showed a muscular man with other men wearing matching uniforms.

The man has black hair, and wears an extra plate on each of his shoulders, homemade armor chest plate, a belt with ammo and a knife, knee pads and boots.

The former Crystal Preppers were getting scared having that guy around. But the Warriors were curious.

"Hey. Who's that guy?" Connor asked.

"Him. That's Howard Flame. He's one of the toughest fighters since dragons invaded." Don replied.

Then Harold went to the counter to get his order.

"Five cappuccinos to go." said Harold, and he noticed Connor. "Hey, aren't you Connor Nickell?" he questioned.

"Yeah. I'm Connor Nickell." he spoke.

"I didn't know there were Crystal Prep students here." said Howard as he glanced at the teens, but they avoided eye contact to him.

"They just had a hard time.' Connor defended.

"Well, I'd be careful around them. They'll do cruel stunts on everybody." he said as he got the cappuccinos.

"My friends aren't like that anymore. They became one of our auxiliary riders." said Connor.

"You're gonna regret making friends with them." replied Harold as he and his men left.

"Sorry pal. I regret nothing." Connor smirked. The others were impressed that he stood up for Crystal Prep.

Meanwhile at the catacombs, the Shadow Five were giving the Warriors a daily visit, however, their minds were dominated by their daily lives, which was anything but daily.

"Ugh, what are we gonna do?" Lemon groaned. "We barely said anything and we're already the most hated people around." in frustration she banged her head against the wall and she didn't raise it back up.

"We do kind of deserve it Lemon. It was pretty bad of us to pull all those stunts on CHS in the past." Indigo replied as she rubbed Yusha's chin.

"But what can we do? We can't be hated forever, can we?"

"Well... No, but-"

"Then we got to do something about it." Lemon said as she slipped on her headset listening to more rock and roll tunes.

"Hey, just take it easy. We're trying to help you Shadowbolts." Vault reassured.

"Speaking of which, where are the others?" questioned Alicia.

"Haven't you guys heard, Chief Muntz has brought them in for questioning for their past lives at Crystal Prep." said Kaguya.

"Well, this is gonna be bad." Luu Luu said, and the computers went on.

"What's going on?" Connor questioned as Alicia is checking it.

"That's odd? It looks like Chloe and Owen are at the beach." Alicia responded.

"O.k. let's go." he said.

Heroes from ancient times. Give the Warriors they're power.

And now the Warriors are in their outfits.

Meanwhile the Warriors rode off to the beach, and landed and watched as Owen and Chloe are just watching the lake.

"Alright. What're you guys doing here?" Connor asked.

"Well, since I finally got my revenge, I decided that I should see the lake for my victory." Owen answered.

"What!? Is that it!?" he questioned in confusion.

"Well, not really. We're trying to create living dark water." Chloe exclaimed. So she took out a spell book and read the incantation, and now the water became dark water, and starting to have humanoid features with red eyes.

"All right let's get this over with." said Vault and he charged, he swinged his sword and hit it, but somehow his sword got stuck, and the dark water punched him.

And now the dark water grabbed Vault's sword.

The dark waters charged at the Warriors, but they know they couldn't fight them, so they decided to avoid them to wear them out.

They kept dodging one of their attacks, and avoided getting caught. But one barely grabbed Prim, and Luu Luu placed a bucket on it's head.

So the Warriors regrouped, and are almost out of breath.

"We got to do something." said Maia while panting.

"What're we suppose to do? We're all steamed up!" Luu Luu cried.

Then Connor thought of something about steam.

"Steam? Wait a minute." said Connor and he turned over to Shade. "Shade! Plasma blast!" he said, and Shade fired at am dark water and it started to steam like it's losing it's power.

"That's it. Come on guys." he called. So the Warriors got on their dragons and planned to give the dark waters a fiery taste.

The dragons soon fired at them, and one by one they're getting steamed.

"Scar! Burn!" Vault cried, and Scar ignited and decapitating the dark waters' waists.

"Bomber! Magma shot!" Grave said and Bomber fired at the dark waters and are quickly losing power.

So the Warriors' dragons kept firing at the dark waters, until finally there were no more.

"All right Owen. That's the end of it." said Connor. But Owen just smirked like it's only the beginning.

"You may have saved the city. But you didn't help you're friends, and I'm coming for them." said Owen as he and Chloe got onto armored dragons and escaped.

Back at the catacombs, the Warriors are getting nowhere to help Crystal Prep.

"What does Owen mean by it? Can't help Crystal Prep." Vault exclaimed.

"He's just trying to get into, my head, that's all." Connor replied.

"Well they are blamed for Owen's rage." said Celestine.

"Oh yeah. Well we're gonna change that." said COnnor.

Now the Warriors are trying to find away to stop the harassment on Crystal Prep
