been a while since i worked on this story, but i do want to finish it, so heres the next chapter, not too much more to go
(The castle, that night)
Kevin sat alone in the dining room with Lincoln, talking and eating ice cream.
"Peanut butter and sauerkraut? That's disgusting, how can you eat that stuff?" Kevin asked Lincoln
"Don't knock it til you try it. I mean your world is weird, living in the internet with giant robots, talking ponies, ghosts and-
"It may be weird to you but it's normal to me, most of the time. The other species aren't that bad, except the ponies on certain days, will still never forgive what they did to my sister a year ago. You know I'm glad we're getting a chance to talk. I've always wanted a brother" said Kevin
"Same here. And yeah half those ponies didn't seem thrilled when we gave our case to fix the city. What'd Lucy do to them?" Lincoln asked
"They got greedy, plain and simple. Best we can do now is help them clean their planet from the battle in February and help them modernize" said Kevin "Whether they like it or not. One of them had to be executed not long back, she tried blowing me and Lucy up in her own castle"
"Ok moving on, you say you have superheroes in this game?" Lincoln asked
"Sure do, the powerpuff girls, captain America, Spider-Man, the guardians of the galaxy-
"You got ace savvy?" Lincoln asked
"Who? I don't know. I swear I've seen someone like you before I just can't figure out where. Might've been another family" said Kevin
(With the other girls)
The group was hanging out in queen Lucy's castle, checking out some of her stuff. Luna was looking at some lightsabers in a glass case.
"So what exactly is an inquisitor queenie? Saw your statue in the park" said Luna
"The inquisitors are Jedi hunters from the Star Wars games and serve the empire. I was wanted by them for my own powers. How I got them, well I don't exactly like talking about that. So much has happened since then, not a lot of it good. There was the fallen, being framed for a crime and having to hide, palpatine, losing everything" Lucy sadly admitted
"You poor thing, how can you live in a world like this?" Lori asked
"Regenerating after death comes in handy, though dying still hurts. Everyone says I'm a bad guy and my droids will always be evil" said Lucy
Lisa was currently examining one of the droids.
"I must say the fact you're in power surprises me. After a quick rundown of this B1 I think you call it, it's cheap and flimsy, and from what I can see, very stupid" said Lisa
"We're not stupid, we're independent thinkers"
"Roger Roger"
"Roger Roger"
"Roger Roger"
"Right. I repeat, very stupid. Your droid bodyguards seem to be the only competent ones here. Why don't you have more of them?" Lisa asked
"Because they're expensive and coding is not easy and I'm not made of money. Look if you want more info about what exactly happens in this game, just use one of the castle computers, not this castle. Everyone off the bridge because I feel insulted by the 4 year old" said Lucy
All the girls were kicked out of the room and looked at Lisa
"Had to insult her huh?" Luan
"You better not make fun of Kenny" said Lana
"He may be dumb too but at least he's strong and armored well" said Lisa
(The next day)
The citywide celebration had begun. It was the city's 10th anniversary, and citizens all over were enjoying themselves. There were carnival rides, food and games, music, it was like a big festival. Under watch and a stern warning from the royals, the louds went separate ways to enjoy themselves.
Leni was walking around with lily and ended up near an imperial recruitment center where weapons and uniforms were on display outside.
"Join the empire. Explore new worlds, learn valuable skills, bring order and unity to the galaxy. Be a part of something, join the empire" a voice announced
Leni looked at the uniform of an officer and shook her head.
"Feels so, cold and heartless that color" said Leni
Lily blew a raspberry at the uniform.
"You there, blonde girls, interested in a career in the imperial military?" An officer asked them
"Not in this outfit" said Leni
"It's designed to be functional, not fashionable, and only officers wear them. With an education at an imperial academy we can teach you many things. You could have a career in the navy, or perhaps the imperial security bureau. Or even patrol worlds as a stormtrooper, bring law and order"
"So you guys are like the king and queens army or something?" Leni asked
This made the officer burst out laughing, which confused the 2 girls
"Why would I want to work for nutjob Lucy? You're clearly new to this game, she's a little insane, she wanted to massacre a village of ponies over something like a small rebellion. We imperials might be villains to some but we believe in law and order, something a separatist droid could never bring"
"What's a separatist?" Leni asked
"Scratch that, maybe you wouldn't do well in the academy. What about you little one, you want to protect the galaxy with us?"
Lily pinched the officer's nose in response and laughed.
"On with your day" said the officer before walking away
"Nice guy, little weird. Wonder what that nut thing he was talking about was?" Leni wondered to herself
Lisa was nearby and looking at a model of a tie fighter.
"How does this thing fly exactly?" Lisa asked
"The tie fighter is a cheap and expendable ship from Sienar fleet systems. It uses twin ion engines and solar collectors on the wings in place of fuel, making it environmentally friendly. Doesn't need a lot to try and fly" said an engineer
"Ion engines? Those aren't very strong to lift something like this" said Lisa
"Maybe not where you're from, but they sure are here" said the engineer
"This may sound weird, but can I see those engines?" Lisa asked "and what other cool stuff do you military people have?"
"Well we have walkers like the at-at and at-st, our transport shuttles, the e-web heavy repeating blaster cannon is a popular and deadly-
"Show me everything, my world has nothing like this stuff. The money I can make reverse engineering this stuff to my people"
"How old are you exactly?" The engineer asked
Elsewhere, Lincoln was meeting some of the superheroes of the city at one of the food stands.
"You guys are so awesome" said Lincoln
"We do our best to protect the city" said Spider-Man
"Just because we're outdated versions of our characters doesn't mean we're not useful" said captain America
"Excuse me, I asked for extra mustard on my hot dog" said iron man to a chef
With Rita, she was enjoying a massage by a pony at a massage booth.
"Your hooves are so soft yet firm" said Rita in a relaxed tone
"I get that a lot. Beats a massage from a battle droid that's for sure" said the pony
"I can really feel the difference" said Rita
Lynn sr meanwhile was talking to one of the bobbies in a bad British accent, much to their annoyance.
"Look, don't take this the wrong way but I actually don't like being reminded of my home too much, bad backstory and all" said a Bobby
"Righty o govner" said Lynn sr in a bad British accent
The bobbies pulled out their batons
"I'm gonna go now" said Lynn in a normal voice
Over with luan, she was performing with a couple of other performers on a small stage, doing a small comedy act involving slapstick, with the royal twins watching and laughing. While luan threw pies at the performers, the others tried to shoot water at her or hit each other.
"Why I oughta-
One of the performers then got hit in the eye by another
"Ow. Hey man you actually got my eye!" The performer argued
The twins laughed hard as the performers began attacking each other with luan laughing nervously to the side.
"Guys this isn't how this is supposed to go" said Luan
The performers agreed and stood up.
"Now ladies and gentlemen, prince and princess, I'm about to perform a solo act. Princess Lucy, would you mind stepping on stage for just a moment please, I have a special surprise for you" said the lead performer
Lucy glitched onto the stage and faced the crowd.
"Princess Lucy you're a horrible leader and are absolutely insane, and I'm about to show everyone just how bad you are"
"What? You can't do that. She wanted to kill me for pranking some old guy the other day" said Luan
"Oh yes I can, because I just did this"
The performer grabbed a sundae from a nearby patron and smushed it over lucys head before making a run for it
"Try and catch me, old ugly girl"
Lucy, infuriated, gave chase. Kevin glitched onto the stage next to luan.
"Watch closely, this is why what he did is a really bad idea" said Kevin
The sounds of punching could be heard along with the sound of screaming, not from Lucy, but from the man who insulted her.
"Ooh, that's gotta hurt" said Luan
