Mega Mare Dash
Base off the game Mega Man X and a Picture I fond.
It was a normal day in Ponyville, Rainbow Dash just finish her weather for the day and was planning on relaxing before meeting with her friends. Little then she knew her whole life would change forever.
Rainbow Dash just step in her room ready to jump on her bed. When her hoof hit something.
"Ouch!", She yell, "What in the hay?"
After look to see what she hit a Strange pony appear from no way.
"Rainbow Dash.", It spoke, "My name is Rainbow Chaser, your great-great grandfather and I have some bad news for you."
"Huh? My great-great grand father?", Rainbow Dash ask, "And what bad news?
"During my time, I was one of the best flyers in Equestria and a top engineer. I soon came to a problem. I once had a dream that all of Equestria was in great danger and saw a Rainbow blur shooting across the sky. I soon relies that it was you, born my years from my time. Seeing this new threat in my dreams I knew you were unable to handle it alone." Chaser said, before Rainbow Dash cut it off.
"No dud, Me and my friends can just use the Elements of Harmony to take care of it." She said waving off the speech.
"I have a feeling you were going to say that, but I'm afraid they won't work." Chaser said surprising Her.
"But I did make something for you to help you fight with, I hid it in this room. Please head over to that wall." Chaser said and pointed over to the wall that she had her Daring Do books up against.
Rainbow move her books and look back at Chaser.
"Look closely at the wall, there is a small hoof pad that you need to touch to open what behind there." Chaser explain.
Rainbow Dash look closer and saw the hoof pad. She rise her left hoof and place it on the pad.
Then the wall shot up and there was blue armor standing in front of her.
"I build this armor for you, It design to help you take heavy fire and is build with a weapon that I come to call a buster. It can coped weapons from the emeries you defeated and is able to fire small shots. Also you can charge the shots to make your attacks bigger. And if you ever need it just say, "Mega Mare Armor on!" and It will appear on you." Chaser explain.
Rainbow Dash look at the armor in awe. "This is so cool." She whisper.
"One more thing, until the time is right, do not, I repeat, DO NOT tell anypony about the armor. It's for you and you alone. Plus I hind upgrades to the armor all around Equestria and you will have to find them. Please Rainbow Dash I'm counting on you to save Equestria." Chaser said once more before disappearing.
"Hey!...Wait! What about that threat...darn." Rainbow Dash muted.
She turn back to the armor and took the helmet and look at it.
It was blue with a small light blue edged near the bottom and a line blue line that went across the middle. At the front really surprise her. There was a red gem that was shape like a Thunderbolt just her element and her cutie mark.
She try to put it on my fond it won't slide on.
Rainbow sign and put it back and look at the rest of the armor.
Like the helmet, the rest was mixed with blue and light blue, plus it look to be missing some pieces, like around the arms and legs. Then again if it was build for her, she got to move around freely.
She look at it some more before a yawn over took her. She was getting tired. She put her hoof back on the pad and the wall close. Then she lay down on her bed and fell asleep thinking about what she saw today.
In coming Mission...Save Ponyville from unknown threat.
Ready? Start!
Rainbow Dash walk across Ponyville felling refresh after her nap.
But her mind kept drawing back to the armor. She check to see if it was a dream and saw the armor was still there and it was.
She even remember the message from her Great-great grandfather. How was she going to stop a threat if she doesn't know what it is.
Rainbow walk some more before a shadow cover her. She was just about to fly up and move the cloud away when somepony shouted, "What in Equestria is that?"
Rainbow Dash look up and saw something she never seen before. Everypony watch as it floated over Ponyville, then stop and it bottom open.
Then strange creatures jump off and land in front of them. At first noting happen, then apart of the creatures open and began to attack Ponyville!.
Ponies left and right began to run for their lives but Rainbow Stood in her place not wanted them to destroy her home.
"Hey! NOT COOL!" Rainbow Dash shouted and buck the closed one. It didn't do any thing but knock it over. However it pick it self right back up and stated attack Ponyville again.
"Uhg! I got to stop them, but how?!" Rainbow Dash shouted trying everything she can.
Noting work, all her attack did was knock them down and they just got right back up and continue attacking her home.
Then it click, this had to be the threat Chaser told her about. She needed that blue armor.
She flew into the sky hoping she can reach her cloud house and get the armor, but no sooner then she did, the creatures began to shot her!
Rainbow Dash dodge left and right before she was force to land in a ally.
After she did, the creatures went strain back to attack Ponyville.
'Guess I just have to call the armor from here.' She thought before shouted, "MEGA MARE ARMOR ON!"
Inside Rainbow Dash's room the wall open and the armor started to float out and flew strain to the door and pass all the flying things and soon fond Rainbow Dash in the ally.
Then it dive to her and a bright light cover the ally.
Rainbow Dash can feel the armor clap on around her crest, upper hoofs, lower hoofs, her lower area before her legs, and her head.
When the light fade, Rainbow Dash saw she was now standing on her back hoofs and look at herself.
She saw that the armor fit her perfectly and saw that a few apart of her normal body was showed. Even her Cutie Mark was show. Her Rainbow tail still stick out and her mane was now inside the helmet, the only thing she was not happy about was her wings were now cover by the body armor.
She look at her right hoof and saw it change into to what she believe was the buster weapon Chaser told her about.
"Well Time to give this thing a test run." Rainbow Dash said and ran out to the opening and started fire at the closed creature.
Her Buster did the trick, instead of getting knock over it wrench in pain as the shots hit it. It turn and attack Rainbow Dash.
Rainbow jump over it attacks and return fire. 'This is so cool! I feel stronger with the armor on.' She thought as she shot it again.
Finally the creature couldn't take anymore and fell over and exploded. Rainbow smile at her victory but quickly relies it not over yet. She still had more to take out and ran on her back hoofs to find away to save Ponyville, Unknowing that somepony else was watching her from the shadows.
As Rainbow ran through Ponyville she learn more on how to use the armor. She fond even she can't fly, she can climb up walls by jumping on them and learn how to use her change shots.
There was two different types of change shots. First charge was a small narrow shot that was quick and took out smaller creatures and the second charge shot was bigger and took out many creatures in one shot except the big ones that took heavy damage.
She was loving the armor more and more. Finally she came to a clearing. She notice she was in the Play Pet Park and saw the big thing again and ready her buster.
It open it bottom again and this time send creatures that had wheels after her. Rainbow took care of them quickly. "Heh, can't handle the Dash can you?" She said.
Then the big thing pass over her and stop and open it bottom again and this drop an red creature with a smaller purple creature inside it. She felt her mind shout, WARING! WARING! and ready herself.
Then the creature dash across the field and hit her. Even though armor took most of the hit she felt it hurt all of her body. She fire her buster, only for it to push the creature back a few inches.
It began to walk up to her and Rainbow ran around it firing try to get the time to charge her shot. Finally she had the time and charge it. Was it was full, she fire, but like her normal shots it only push it back this time a few feet.
She didn't have time charge her shot again as the creature charge up to her and punch her again.
Rainbow can feel her armor telling her that her energy was low and one more attack can destroy her. She watch as it walk up to her then jump back.
'What it doing?' Rainbow thought as she fire again. She fail to notice that it fire a electric ball at her. At the time she saw it, she was to late. She was surround my a electric field, unable to move.
The creature walkup to her and pick her up and started to squeeze her. Rainbow cry out in pain unable to do any thing.
"You stupid Pony!", It said, "Did you really think you can beat me?" Rainbow couldn't answer, the pain block all words from her. She only hope some pony will help her.
Luckily for her that wish came true. A Charge shot flew though the air and hit the arm holding Rainbow Dash. She fell to the ground and watch as a red armor pony zoom in front her ready to fire it buster again.
'Who is this? And why do I feel like I see this pony before?' Rainbow thought as the big thing came down again and the purple creature made the red one jump on to the bottom part as the red armor Pony fire.
They both watch as the big thingy flew away into the clouds.
"Just I'm not strong enough to bet that thing." Rainbow said look down. She hate to admitted it, but knew not to lie about it, she was just save by this pony, whoever it was.
"Dash you can't think that you can win the first fight all the time." The red armor pony said.
Rainbow look up at the pony in surprise. It saw the whole fight? Who is this pony?
"Listen Dash, we are facing a new threat and show far me and you are the only ones that can fight it, So don't think you are weak. Just keep fighting and you'll get stronger." The red armor pony said cheering her up.
Rainbow stood and said, "Thanks for the save back there, I'm Mega Mare Dash."
"I'm Zerofire." The pony said and shook her hoof.
"I need to go, you done great, get some rest you need it." Zerofire said.
Rainbow nods, her armor was warning her that it can't take any more hit and she was tried after all the fighting she be in.
Zerofire turn and walk away, but stop and said, "You are one great hero, you know that?" And walk into the fog that roll in.
Rainbow stood there, smiling and turn her head back to see all the ponies that came out of there hiding places an look at her.
"Everything is fine here now, you can start rebuilding your homes. I'm going to get some rest." She said and walk away.
"Wait!" One of them call and Rainbow stop. "Who are you?" The same one ask.
Rainbow smile and said, "Like I told my friend, My mane is Mega Mare Dash." And walk into the fog as well.
