Magical Alien Summer Ep 9: Mirror Alliance
Vilgax's ship hovers in orbit as 2 more drones were launched to earth. "The drones are launched. Equipped with the new tracking system, they will have no trouble finding and retrieving the Omnitrix." The drone told its master, as Vilgax's chamber is covered in steel plates with a small window for display. "They may find it, 'GASP' but retrieving it will not be easy. Whoever possess the Omnitrix, continues to be a dangerous and brilliant opponent." Vilgax exclaims as he narrows his eyes.
At the Canterlot mall, Juniper Montage, now having a movie theater apron and hat was walking as people were doing and talking about stuff. Just then, the girls' Dance Magic video appeared on some TV screen, making Juniper growls out as she stomps away. As she walks, she saw another TV showing the video. "Those girls!" No matter where she goes, she keeps running into the video. But the final straw was she passed by a news stand that has an article about Overflow stopping a bank robbery. "GGRRRRRR!"
"It's bad enough that brat has play the hero and meddle in my plan and help those girls get me kicked off the set." She bumps into a floor sign showing the movie. Looking at it, she grits her teeth at the sight of the Rainbooms on the small corner, showing their cameos. "But now they have a cameo on the movie I want to be in?! I bet they'll be at the premiere tonight. I bet I'll be the lucky one ushering them to their seats. Ugh!" She starts slapping and shaking the sign, anger clear on her face she glares with fury at the ones that ruined everything for her.
"Juniper? Where are you?!" The girl rolls her eyes in annoyance at her boss as she takes out a walkie-talkie, mocking him with her mouth and hands as she responds. "We need you back at the popcorn popper, stat!" " Keekkk… What was that? Keekkk… Boss? Can't hear you! Keekkk… Losing you!"
She puts her radio away as she walks to a glasses stand. "If those girls and boy hadn't shown up, I would have played Daring Do! Tonight would have been about me. I would have been a star!" She puts on some shades as she pose, making the salesman shakes his head in disapproval. The teen takes them off and looks at in disappointment. "You're right. They are a bit much." As she checks for another par, a sparking, trail of blue magic trails down form the roof and into a hand mirror, turning it into a crystal version of itself. As Juniper grabs and looks at it, the reflection changes into a star version of herself, making her scream and drops the mirror as she steps back.
"What was that?!" She leans down and touch it, making the mirror flares up as she screams again. She looks to see no one was noticing and picks up the mirror, looking at it as the reflection Juniper blows a kiss at her. The real smiles in awe at the magic. "Incredible! Keep the change!" She tosses some money at the salesman as she walks away with her new mirror. "Something tell me that this is worth it."
Intro:
A Galaxy is shown with some planets as outer space music is heard.
Just for a flash of green light to occur and shows the Omnitrix symbol with Dan's silhouette in the middle as the song picks up.
"It started when an alien device did what it did."
The 1st clip is Dan, discovering the Omnitrix as it latches onto his arm as he panics.
He then presses down on the dial as it transforms him into Heatblast as he cries out.
"And stuck itself upon his wrist with secrets that it hid."
"Now he's got superpowers, he's no ordinary kid. He's Dan 10! (Dan 10!)"
The logo flashes a bit, before showing off aliens:
Grey Matter, Overflow, Shock Rock, Heatblast, Tear-Wolf, Goop and Astrodactyl.
"So if you see him, you might be in for a big surprise."
"He'll turn into an alien before your very eyes!"
The boy is then shown transforming into Tear-Wolf as 6 more aliens appear and zooms in:
Goop, Shock Rock, XLR8, Humungousaur, Heatblast and Tear-Wolf.
" He's slimy, freaky, fast and strong, he's every shape and size."
"He's Dan 10! (Dan 10!)"
Just then, a flash-animated Dan is running towards the screen and then flips and morphs into Tear-Wolf.
He bites at the screen as a black and green '1'. appear next to him.
2: Humungousaur is next as he grins and slams his tail down, making a sonic blast.
3: Grey Matter leaps at the screen, only to go splat in a comic fashion.
4: XLR8 appears and zooms away.
"Armed with powers, he's on the case!"
"Fighting off evil from Earth or space!"
5: Upgrade wiggles his legs around as he raises his arms.
6: Shock Rock generates lots of power and blasted a large beam of blue energy across the screen.
7: Overflow flies upward on his water blasts.
8: Astrodactyl displays his whips and then rockets away on his jetpack.
"He'll never stop 'till he makes them pay!"
"'Cause he's the baddest kid to ever save the day!"
9: Goop emerges out of his puddle form and throws a long punch in the air.
10: Heatblast chucks a fireball at the screen as Dan himself lands on the ground with his fist, cracking it as he gives a big grin.
"Dan 10! (Dan 10! D-D-D-Dan! Dan 10! D-D-D-Dan!)"
Tear-Wolf is then shown leaping form some trees as he looks fierce.
Shock Rock poses as he finishes transforming.
Sunset and the Rainbooms are shown powering up into their magic forms.
Heatblast chucks a fireball.
Dan is then shown slapping down on the Omnitrix.
The Mane 6, Spike, the royal sisters, the royal crystal family, Discord, Starlight Glimmer, Trixie and reformed Changelings and Dan in griffon form stood together as they glare at an adversity as the Omnitrix boy just smirks with crossed arms.
Twilight is shown fight a giant bird monster as she uses her Geode's magic to slam it down on the ground.
Humungousaur roars out as he finishes transforming.
XLR8 is shown running on top of water.
The opening finishes up as the aliens all got sucked into the Omnitrix as Dan shows it while green rays came from it as the title appear next to him.
Dan 10: Magical Alien Summer.
As Juniper walks and smiles at her reflection, a crash and a boom came from outside of the mall. "What was that?!" The teen dashes to the exit. She leaves the building to notice something going on down another street. Cutting through an alleyway, she stops in awe at seeing Humungousaur battling the drones. "Oh. Him."
"Hope you tincans like Dino-tail!" He slams a shockwave towards them, only for them to dodge as they kept firing at him as he blocks. Juniper then notices the principals of Canterlot High watching as well. "What are they doing here?" She questions to herself.
Celestia notices a nearby trashcan and picks it up, tossing it like a disc that hits one robot and knocks it away. "Nice shot!" Thanks, it's all in the wrist.' Celestia said back to her sis. But just then, the other robot fires it laser at the building above them, making some rocks fall down. "LOOK OUT!" Celestia shoves Luna away as she tries to avoids the rocks, but knocks her down as Luna and Juniper gasps.
"TIA!" "NOOOO!" The Vaxasaurian cries in horror at his hurt family, before turning and glaring at the bots. They both swooped in and fires at him, only for the angry alien to grabs them and holds them apart. "I SMASH!" He squashes the 2 together and throws them way, making them land near the hiding girl.
He ran over to the adults as Luna moves the rocks off her sister. "Dan! We need to get her to a doctor!" The alien gently picks the woman as he grab the other one and throw him on his back. "Hospital's up the street!" He then took off as fast as he could, rushing to save Celestia.
Juniper watches them with concern. "I sure hope she'll be okay." She saw the wreckage and curiosity got the better of her, moving in for a closer look. "What are you things?" She places her mirror down and tears off the head of one of the bots, looking at it. But suddenly, the robot's eye flares to life and jabs a cylinder into Juniper's neck, making her scream in pain.
Her neck starts turning red as her sleeves ripped along with her shocks and shoes. Her hair became let down as the hat fell off as a red visor appears over her eyes while her glasses broke off. She grew 2 red orbs on her shoulders as silver sharp spikes appeared on her arms. She grew 4 sharp, claws. She drops the scarp as she takes deep breaths, calming her nerves. But as she reaches for the mirror, she gasps in shock at her new hand. Picking up the mirror and looking at it, she screams in terror at her new appearance. "I'm a monster!" She cries out, horrified at her new appearance.
"Hey, lookie here boys." Juniper turns to see 3 thugs coming out another ally as they all smirks at. "Looks like some girl in dress-up. That's a pretty nice mirror you got there. I think we'll take it." Juniper was scared by the dangerous men and backs away. "Stay back!" Just then, the orbs on her shoulder raised up, firing energy beams at the thug's feet and blowing them away as they crashed into a wall.
The men was knocked out as Juniper was shocked at what she did. She looks at the orbs as they retracted back and back at the mirror, which sent out a glow that travels up her body. When it died down, Juniper was normal along with her broken things back on her body. As she looks at her right hand, it suddenly shifts back into the cyber claw and back again. "Oh… Now that's an interesting side effect." She saw a poster of the movie nearby, grinning evilly at the Rainbooms. "I can't wait for premiere night!" She stabs her right claw at the corner and tears at the Rainbooms. She walks back as she sinisterly chuckles.
At the hospital, Luna and Dan were in a room as Celestia sleeps on a bed with a bandage around her head and a cast on her left foot. The 2 were talking to doctor. "How's my sister?" "Celestia suffered from a concussion, a few lacerations and a broken leg. " "She's… going to be okay, right?" Dan asked in concern. "We handled much worst then this. Your aunt is going to make a 100% recovery. I'm glad you got her here as quick as possibly. Now it says in her form that she was hit by a car bumper. Did someone back into her?" "Yes, it was an accident." The man nods to Luna's response and leaves.
Dan turns and looks at the sleeping women in guilt as Luna places a hand on his shoulder, giving him a small smile as they both watch.
"The drones were destroyed." Vilgax orders to the humanoid. "Send out more!" "We may not to need to. I'm receiving 1 combined signal. And that signal is stationed at one place." Vilgax thinks about it, realizing the twist in this new development. "Hmm… perhaps one head is better then 2."
Juniper was busy admiring herself in the magic mirror when her boss asked her to clean up a popcorn spill. She groans in dismay as she stops at the mess. She then gets an idea, looking around to see no one. "I know just the thing to rid of this." She makes one of her orb blasters appears and fires a small beam, vaporizing the mess. She made the orb disappeared as her boss walked by. "Wow! Done already? I'm surprised." He walks off as Juniper smirks. "I think I finally got the hang of these new upgrades. Now back to the counter for some mirror time and—" She starts spazzing out as she holds her head in pain.
"WH—What is— Happening—" "Listen to me, whoever you are." Juniper stands up and looks around in shock. "Who are you?! How did you get inside my head?!" "NO QUESTIONS! You serve me!" "Look, buddy. I don't know who you are, but I don't serve anyone! Except my boss…" She starts clutching her head again as she drops to her knees.
When she shot open her eyes, she saw that she is floating in a yellow and orange void in her cyber form. "You know possessed power that you can never imagined. But unless you find a way to use it, it is worthless!" A giant, undamaged Vilgax appears before the teen as she gasps in fear from the giant alien with red glowing eyes. "Fulfill my demand, and I will teach you. Fall me, and I will turn you into dust." "So… what do you want?" "Only one thing: a valuable piece of technology missing from my possession called the Omnitrix. And luckily for you, you are already program to find it."
Juniper gulps as she asks questions. "What does the Omnitrix looks like, sire?" "It looks like a device that you humans call 'a watch' and has a green hourglass on it." Juniper widens her eyes at the description. "Did you say 'watch and hourglass'? Cause, I know who has it." Vilgax widens his eyes briefly before narrowing his eyes as they glowed. "WHO?!" "A 10-year old boy named Dan. He has it. I saw him before with it." Vilgax widens his eyes again as his teeth grinds, trying to control pent up rage as he mumbles out. "A child? The Omnitrix is the hands OF A MERE CHILD?!"
Juniper closes her eyes in terror, expecting something bad to happen to her. When she noticed a solid floor, she opens her eyes to see she's human back in the movie theater. She looks around asks to herself. "Who was that guy?"
At the hospital, Dan stares at Celestia as Luna steps in as she holds a bag. "Dan. I brought you some lunch. It's a double quarter pounder with large fries and 2 chocolate chip cookies and a large Root Beer. It's one of your favorites." "I'm not hungry." Luna looks in sadness at her nephew as she sets the bag down and sits with him.
"It's okay. My sister is going to be alright. She's tougher than she looks. Besides, it's not your fault, it was an accident." "Yet, it feels like it's my fault." The boy mumbles out and walks out of the room. The other aunt follows him to see him leaning against the window with his arms crossed in thought. "Come on, Dan. She'll pull through."
"You know, if I went Upgrade and got into the machine she's hook up to, I can enhanced it and make her better!" "Dan, that won't work." The boy rubs the watch as he look at his concerned aunt. "Okay, how about Shock Rock? I can use a small charge to wake her up. I don't know, I just want to help." Dan said as he activates the Omnitrix.
Unknown to him, Juniper, taking some time off, sense the Omnitrix's activation as she hovers in mid-air. She use her computer vision to zoom and lock on the watch. "There you are, Tennyson."
Dan watches Celestia with a long look as Luna assures him. "Like I said, she's going to be fine." The boy looks at his other aunt, unassured to trust her words. Just then, they heard a sound, wondering where it came from when… CRASH The 2 leaps out of the way as the cyber girl crashes through the window.
She stares at them as the 2 gasps in shock. "The Omnitrix." "You want it? Come and get it." Dan and Luna runs off, making Juniper raise one of her shoulder pods and fires at them. They turns a corner as the beams missed. They kept running as the cyber girl follows them and keeps firing. They both turns left as Dan stops and notices the stairway. "Stairs!" Luna turns and nods, following him down the spiraling stairway.
"Dan! That girl! She looks like one of the robots from earlier. It looks like she merged with one of them!" "Yeah! But there's something familiar about her. I think I saw her before, but I can't remember where." Just then, the top of the stairs got blown, making Juniper emerges and leaps all the way down.
Dan and Luna exit the Hospital and hides behind the ambulances as Juniper blasts her way through the door. She looks around the area, trying to find the kids as they both hides. "We can do this the easy way, or the hard way." She notices a nearby cliff, blasting with both laser and making some rocks tumbled down. "Time to get my wolf on!" Dan selects Tear-wolf and slaps down. FLASH
Luna was surprised by Heatblast's appearance as he groans out. "Great! I wanted metal muscle and I get the walking flamethrower instead!" He notices the rock were getting closer. "Scissors cut paper! Fire melts rock, right?!" He questions as Luna shrugs, not sure on how to answer. He takes a chance and unleashes a stream of flames at the rock, only to turn them into flaming boulders instead. "Okay... Bad idea!" He spots the ambulance and gets an idea, uses his flames to melt the front of the vans and went back to see the makeshift barrier stopped the flaming rocks as they roll down the street. 'Hospital's saved!" Heatblast grins out, only for it to drop as Luna points out. "But there's people at the bottom of the street!"
Heatblast looks over and saw Luna is right as the rocks were heading towards the town. "Aw man! I hate it when you're right." Heatblast runs off, only to get stomped by Juniper! But he burst out in fire to knock her off as he uses his flames to blast off and lands in front of the tumbling, flaming boulders. He then leaps up and slams a massive meteor to blast the road apart as the rocks fell into the massive hole, saving the people! He then grabs a nearby manhole cover and blasts a fire hydrate apart, using the cover to redirect the water to put out the flaming rocks.
"Phew… Glad that's over." Just then, Juniper swoops in and snatches him up, tossing him into a parked truck as all of the people ran as far as away as possible. She then starts firing a barrage of lasers, making a giant smoke cloud. It clears to see debris and wrecked vehicles, but no alien. As the girl looks, Heatblast appears in front of a smoke cloud and grins with his arms crossed. "You want me? Take your best shot!" The cyber girl flies at him, hoping to tackle that smug grin of his face.
But he quickly dodges as the teen flew past him and stops. She notices that she was floating near an oil tanker with a spilled trail that leads up to Heatblast, who snaps a spark as it falls onto the liquid, ignite it as it travels to the trailer. "Oh, hayseeds." BOOOOMMM She was sent flying all the way across the city as Heatblast salutes her. "See ya!"
"Well, glad to see you eating. Guess that fight works up an appetite." Comments Celestia, who is now awake in a different room as Dan finishes the last of his food while Luna sat across. "When I was messing with the watch, I must have led her here." Dan realizes.
"Since I got moved to a new room and you haven't went alien since then, we're safe." "Yeah, for today. But what about tomorrow? It's getting to dangerous for anyone to be near me. If I never found this watch, none of this weird stuff would happen!" Dan exclaims as he worries about the safety of those he cares about, scared of losing them because of something he's done.
Luan smiles as she points out. "But because the watch won't come off, there's noting you can do about it." "Maybe, maybe not." Dan said as he looks down in guilt. As the boy looks lost in his mind, the adults look at each other in worriment.
At the theater, Juniper recovered from the blast and steps behind the counter, cracking her back as she shakes her head from the ringing. "Well, that could have been worse." She pulls out her mirror and gazes at her dream self, cheering her up as she smiles. "At lest you help cheer me up a bit." She moves her elbow a bit, only to knock over a box of popcorn near her, spilling it.
"OH, DARN IT! Now I gotta clean this mess up. 'Sigh' I wish this mess would be gone." But just as she said that her mirror starts glowing, making her quickly points away just as a beam of energy sucks the spilled food in it and dies down. Juniper was shocked by the new power of the mirror. "WHOA! I did not know you can do that." She exclaims. As she places the mirror on the counter and looks at it, her head starts hurting as Vilgax contacts her again. "The Omnitrix. Where is it?"
She finds herself back in the mind space as the squid glares at her. "I couldn't get it. The kid's got tons of practice with his aliens. I need to figure something out." "Then make the boy come to you instead." Juniper wakes up to see she's on the floor, picking herself up and rubbing her head and picking up her mirror. "How am I going to make him come to me?"
"JUNIPER MONTAGE?!" Juniper looks up in shock to see 6 of the Rainbooms staring at her as Pinkie yelled in surprise. The hyper party girl then leans in as she rattles off., making the other teen annoyed as she wishes she can blast her mouth off. "Were you invited to the Daring Do premiere? Ooh, that's exciting! No, crazy! No, concerning! No! Just no! No offense." She smiles sheepishly.
Juniper adjusts he glasses as she explains, turning her back as she crosses her arms in annoyance. "I wasn't invited to the premiere. My uncle Canter Zoom felt bad for firing me, so he pulled some strings and got me this job." Fluttershy questions. "You work here?" "As little as possible." She frowns with crossed arms as her back is turned.
The Rainbooms looks at each other in concern. "You know, if you hadn't tried to sabotage the movie, you could be celebrating with us." Rainbow's big mouth comment was the last straw as Juniper's rage built from the inside as she stomps around the counter. "This should be my night! I would have found a way to be in the film if you all had stayed out of it! I would have been Daring Do! Everyone would've loved me!'
As Juniper glares angry at them, she widens her eyes in realization as she starts thinking. "Actually, you can help me out for something." "Sorry, but we're going to see the movie instead." Rainbow as she steps away, only to quickly dodge as laser blast that hits the ground. The girls turn back in shock as Juniper smirks with her left shoulder pod smoking. "Ohh… I don't think you're going to make it." She turns into her cyber form as the Rainbooms gasps in shock. "Juniper…. What happened to you?!" Twilight cries in the girl responds back. "Like my new look? I got some upgrades since we last saw each other." She said as she holds and flex her new claws.
"And that's not the only new thing I picked up: I wish that you would all leave me alone!" She aims her mirror and shucks them in as they scream, leaving behind Fluttershy's barrette as she smirks at the mirror, revealing the girls as they cry for help. She turns back as she places the dropped item on her vest. "I think this will get the boy to come running to me."
Celestia was sleeping as Luna left for some work. Dan places a note on her and whispers. "I'm sorry. It's for your own good." He then walks out the room.
Dan sat on a bench with his head down, thinking in sadness about his family. "I made the right choice, I hope." "Dan, is that you?" The boy looks up to see Sunset Shimmer with another teen girl. She is the same height as Sunset with light purple skin tone with a darker hair with a blue streak. It also has a curled bang. She wears a pink with white stars beanie cap like him, except it cover partly her hair. She has a watch on her right arm and black boots with grey pants that a bit ripped. She lastly a black vest over a green and pink shirt. Dan looks at the girl, only to recognize her. "Starlight Glimmer? Is that you?" "Yep! Here for a visit and tour of your home."
"Is something wrong? You look upset about something?" Sunset asked as they both sat down. Dan sighs and tells them about everything. "…And I left a note for Celestia, saying it's better this way. It's the only thing I could do. As long as I have this on my arm, I'm pretty much a threat to everyone." Dan finishes up as the girls looks sad.
"Dan, stop blaming yourself. No one could have predicted about the watch or all we have been through. It was an accident." Sunset said as Dan still looks unconvinced. "Dan, from what I have been told, you fought Queen Chrysalis, Dr. Animo, poachers, slime aliens, hunters and your own rival. Yet, you never felt sorry at all during those times. I think the person you're supposed to forgive… is yourself."
The kid turns towards Starlight in surprise as she continues. "Dan, everyone makes mistakes. Even Princesses like Twilight and our Celestia. But what makes them better ponies is that they learn from their mistakes to do better. Your aunt Celestia isn't mad or disappointed in you, she's concern about you. She doesn't what you to be this brooding boy, she wants you to be your real self. So, let me ask you, who are you?"
Dan looks down in thought before answering with a determined face. "I'm Dan Tennyson! And I'm going to own up to my mistake!" The girls smile as all 3 stands up. "We're going to the movie to find our friends, want to come?" "Sure! And Starlight, thanks." "Hey, Princess of friendship's student, what are you going to do?"
They all enter the lobby, only for Sunset to stop and gasps at the sight of Juniper's back to them. She quickly grabs the 2 and ducks behind a crane game. "It's Juniper Montage." "Juniper Montage?! I haven't seen her since the studio." Dan adds in as Starlight gasps in surprise. "Noo! Who's that?" The kids slap his forehead as Sunset explains. "She's trouble."
She spots something on her vest. "Huh… That's Fluttershy's barrette. Wait here for me." She hands Starlight her bag and walks to the counter as others watch. Juniper was admiring herself when she saw Sunset walking up. "Sunset Shimmer. I was wondering when you would show up?" "I'm looking for my friends. I don't suppose you've seen them." She questions as she fiddles with her geode. Juniper chuckles as Sunset got mad. "Where are they?" "I'll never tell." Sunset smirks as she exclaims. "You don't need to." She quickly activates her magic as she grabs Juniper's hand.
But after seeing through her memories and finding out about friends and her cyber form, she was suddenly floating in the mind space as Vilgax appears over her. "Listen to me very carefully, girl! Be terrified." The teen gasps in horror as she questions. "W—who are you?!" "I am Vilgax, Conqueror of the cosmos! And I don't care how long it will take, I will retrieve the Omnitrix. And when I do, I will not only lay siege to this world and other galaxies, but also the world of Equestria itself! AND I WILL END THE LIVES OF THOSE WHO DARES DEFINE ME!" The giant Vilgax then tries to eat her as Sunset screams.
She lets go as she shakes like a leaf as Juniper questions "What? Are you fine?" The teen shakes her head as she pleads. "I know you want people to like you. But trust me, the magic in that mirror is only gonna make things worse for you. And you can't trust that alien. You have no idea what he's going to do to Earth when he gets the watch!" Juniper didn't believe her. "You're just saying that because you want the mirror for yourself. And I'm only doing what the guy said so he can get out of my head!" "What I want is my friends back. Please, Juniper. You wished them into that mirror. Maybe there's a way you can wish them out." Juniper smirks as the mirror charges up. "Or… I wish that you can join them!"
The mirror sucks Sunset in as the 2 gasps in shock. "SUN—" Dan quickly gags Starlight and pulls her back as Juniper turns and looks. She activates her visors, scanning the place until she finds the 2 behind the claw game. She smirks to herself as she sneaks off.
"Okay, we need to figure out a plan to save the others. Any ideas?" "Me? I thought you had something?" Starlight questions the boy as he responds back. "You're the student of Princess Twilight, you're supposed to be smart." "Rightttt…" Dan peeks out, only to be surprised. "Hey, where did she go?"
"I got a bad feeling about this." Starlight mumbles out as she felt something on her right, making her turn and gasps as she quickly ducking under a claw as it stabs itself in the game. "Peek-A-Boo!" Juniper cries out as she emerges from the other side as the 2 backs away from her. As Dan stares at the claw, he suddenly knows. "It's you! You were the one that attacked me earlier!" "Bingo, Tennyson!" Juniper exclaims as she steps towards them while morphing into cyber form. 'Now, I believe you have a watch I'm looking for! And I like that and payback time, now!" She raises her orbs as they charged.
Dan activates the watch and turn towards XLR8's shadow. "You want this?" FLASH She fires as the beams missed, leaving her to get sucker punched and losing her grip on her mirror, to which XLR8 grabs and gives to Starlight after setting her down. "You gotta be quick about it! Let's go!" Starlight nods as they both leaves as the cyber teen recovers and notices her magic mirror is gone, making her growl out.
XLR8 arrives at the center and calls out to the people. "EVERYONE! GET OUT NOW!" BOOM An explosion came from the movies as Juniper raises up, making the people run in terror as they try to get away. "GIVE THAT BACK!" She roars out as she open fires.
"Let's split up!" Starlight yells out as they went in different directions. Juniper looks between the 2 and decides on XLR8 first. She follows and lands, only to sideswiped by some lighting hits. The alien hero stops in front of her with a smirk. "Let's dance, shall we?" The girl responds by grabbing his leg and slamming him down and kicking him, sending him sliding back. He got up as Juniper exclaims while prepping her lasers. "If he wants his Omnitrix, he can have it! I just want my mirror back." "'He?' Who's he?" The alien whispers, wondering what Juniper was talking about.
He dashes and delivers a barrage of speedy kicks that pushes the girl back. "One good kick deserves another!" He delivers 3 hard hits that sent the girl smashing into a wooden floor sign. He notices Starlight and zips up to her and lifts his visor. "Have you figure something out?" "Not yet, but I'm thinking I can wish the girls free so they can fix this mess! Can you keep Juniper distract for a bit longer?" BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP XLR8 widens his eyes at the timeout. "Unfortunately, no!" FLASH Dan looks at himself and got a ticked off look. "Just great!"
"That's mine!" Both dodge a claw swipe from Juniper as they both run from her. "No! This mirror is nothing but trouble. You have to realize that." Starlight calls out as they hide behind a potted plant. Juniper lifts it with one claw as she glares. "What I realize is that you are just like those other girls! I wish you'd join them!" Starlight holds the mirror away, only to noticed it didn't do anything as they continued running. "Looks like you can't make that wish unless you're the one holding the mirror!" "That's great and all! But how are we going to stop her?!" "I'm working on it!" Dan decided to hide behind a sign as Juniper keeps after Starlight.
Dan's cell phone rings as he answers it. "Aunt Celestia, now's not the best time! Me and Starlight are fighting the cyber girl again, but nothing won't work on her!" "Dan, if you can't hit her from the outside, take her down from the inside. She's part machine." Dan realizes that there is an alien that can handle tech. "Thanks, aunt Celestia!" He pockets the phone as he follows the 2. He caught up as Juniper punches some TV screens in rage as Starlight crouches in the same stand the mirror first showed up. He ducks into an empty store's counter and dials the Omnitrix, selecting Upgrade as he slaps down.
The watch sinks into his arm as black skin with green digital lines crawls up it to his head. His hair and features and hat vanished as a single, green circle appear on his new head. He then spun around and posed as the transform sequence is complete.
Upgrade runs out and leap to the upper floor, positioning himself behind Juniper as he gets ready to attack. The cyber girl rips the roof as she yells out. "LIKE WHAT?!" "Like... a friend?" "Who would want to be my friend?" "I would." "WHY?" Juniper snaps as Starlight responds. "Because I understand you, Juniper. You think getting revenge is going to make you feel better, but it's not! Please, don't make a mistake that you'll end up regretting for the rest of your life." Juniper start looking remorse at her speech as she tosses the roof away. "I've already made too many mistakes. What I've done is... is... unforgivable."
Starlight approaches with a smile as she holds the mirror out. "No, Juniper. I know they'll forgive you. But first, you have to set them free!" Juniper looks in sadness as she reaches for the mirror, only to clutch her head as she screams in pain. "GAAAHHHH!" "And that's my cue!" Upgrade leaps and lands on Juniper, merging with her as she struggles as Starlight watches in shock. Just then, lighting starts dancing around the head as Upgrade finds himself in the mind space with Vilgax.
"Listen to my every word, boy! Be afraid." Upgrades tries to cover himself from the terror before him as Vilgax glares at him. "You cannot run! You cannot hide from me. I will find you. And when I do, I will retrieve my Omnitrix, and I will destroy you! You cannot escape the wrath of Vilgax! The giant squid open his mouth and tries to swallow him.
Upgrade continues struggling and unmerged with her. As Juniper raises her pods, her skin turns normal as well as her hair while the visor broke off. They rest of the body broke off to reveal her back to normal body. "I'm… normal?" She said in shock. "Mostly normal, but you get the point." "Hurry, Juniper." Starlight hand her the mirror as the girl makes the wish. "I... I wish I could make up for my mistakes." A flash of light from the mirror emerges, only for all of the Rainbooms to emerge in a tangle of limbs as the mirror turns into a regular one.
Sunset and rubs her head as Starlight come over to her. "Starlight! Upgrade! You did it!" She hugs the girl as the Mechamorph gives a thumbs up. Juniper looks at her reflection and looks at the Rainbooms as she expresses guilt. "I'm so sorry." "It's okay, we all have been there." Sunset said as she and Upgrade were surprised. "Really?"
Starlight, Twilight and Sunset explain one by one. "Manipulated an entire town into giving up their talents so they wouldn't think they were special." "Overpowered by a magic I couldn't control and created a rift between two worlds, almost destroying both of them in the process." "Turned an entire school into my own personal zombie army in hopes of conquering a distant pony world."
Both human and alien stares in shock at what they herd. "Wow! We really are a forgiving group.' Pinkie comments as Upgrade whispers to Starlight and Sunset. "Okay, you have got to explain about those other times, because you 2 and Twilight was bad guys, that I don't believe." The 2 giggles in response as the group joins in.
Later, at the Hospital, the Rainbooms and Juniper were hanging out as Starlight and Sunset were talking. Celestia came out of the building with her sister and nephew helping her in crutches as she is discharged. "Now get home, Tia! I'll run your errands while you rest." "Thanks, sister. Feels nice to get out of the hospital." The 2 walks to the parked car as Starlight came up. "Here, let me help you." The woman smiles in response.
"Don't worry, we'll send get well cards soon, Principal Celestia!" Twilight said as the others agrees as well. As the 3 walks to the car, out of ear distance from the others, Starlight asked Dan something. "Hey, Dan. When you were Upgrade, you froze up for a sec while wrestling Juniper. What is up with that?" "I don't know. When I was fighting Juniper, I saw this other alien." Celestia got in, with a bit of difficulty, and starts the car. "We were both floating in space, and he was talking to me. He looks like a human; except he had an octopus for a head and red eyes that glows. He said I should be afraid and said a name. He calls himself Vilgax." Dan notices his aunt looks a pale as a sheet with shrunken eyes.
"Aunt Celestia? You look afraid." "Is there something wrong?" Celestia shakes her head and smile. "No, no. It's okay. I'm fine, really. Let's head home for some rest. You earned it." Dan waves bye at Starlight as she did the same while heading back. Celestia looks up at the sky, thinking about something.
In Vilgax's chamber, the warlord narrows his red glowing eyes in darkness, plotting for not only the Omnitrix, but also the destruction of this new alternate world he learned from Sunset's mind. "This isn't over, Dan Tennyson!"
