Prologue

A friend of your's come through your door. "Hey man/Hey girl! What's up?" your friend asked.

"Nothing really, ready to see the new T.V pony series, Kingdom Hearts." You say.

"Still watching the pony crap? I thought you told me one more episode and then your done." Your friend said.

"It's addictive!" You complain, then you grab the remote. "Wanna watch?"

"That? Seriously? Your joking right?" Your friend said as he/she closed the door. She sat on the couch with you and stares at the T.V.

"I'm telling you, one episode and you'll be hooked up to this!" You say. Your friend scoffs in laughter.

"Yeah right. I bet I can make it through the entire season and not be bored." Your friend says.

"Wanna bet?" You asked. Your friend brings out 20 bucks and laughs. "Alright, if this show can make me like the series, I'll give you 20 bucks and admit it that I like it to other friends." Your friend says.

"And if you win...I promise to never...ever...watch it again." You say sadly. He grins and shakes your hand. "Deal.

You change the channel to the hub and it shows the title.

Let the battle begin.

"So much to do...so little time."

Applebloom felt no air flowing through whatsoever. But she landed on something though. She woke up and found out she was standing on crystal glass. She checked her surroundings. Everything dark flowed across the walls...Er...air. No buildings in sight. The only thing in sight was that she saw stone with a key hovering above it. She went towards the huge key as she grabbed it with her mouth and a glow appeared on her wrist. It showed a circle in the middle with two smaller circles to make it look like ears. (A.N: Just in case you don't know what it is. It's a Mickey Mouse head)

Then a necklace appeared around her neck as it showed a crown. She stared at the mark as it glowed then it showed a dark blue color. It seem so familiar to her. But she doesn't even know what it is, yet it's so familiar to her.

"Take your time, Don't be afraid."

She checked the glass as it showed her asleep, but her family small pictures just across from her face. Then stairs glowed in sight as it made a trail.

"The door is still shut. Power sleeps within you."

She slowly followed th stairs as it kept its glow.

"If you give it form...it will give you strength. Keep your light burning strong."

She heard this strange voice as if it was talking to her. What door? What light? What is this mark on her arm? Why is she here? Why her? How did she get here? So many questions flowed through her little filly brain as she kept going up the stairs. When she made it, she touch the glass and it burst into light as it spread across the ground. Then it showed her and her fellow friends one crystal glass.

"The closer you get to light, The greater you shadow becomes. But don't be afraid. You hold the mightiest weapon of all."

As the strange voice finished, three paper-like black bunnies with yellow glowing eyes appeared. One tried to jump at her, but she accidentally swung her key as it went through the creature and disappeared into thin air. She grinned at what she did. This was no ordinary key, it was a special key. One swung is ragdoll arms at the filly as it clawed through her body, only to see that it completely miss the target. Applebloom swung the huge key as it sliced the creature again.

Now she was confident that she will win this battle.

This time, the creature fell to the floor and crawled its way to Applebloom. What was it doing? She kept watch of the thing as it crawled. It came back to its bunny-like body and it tried to kick her. Applebloom quickly swung her key as she closed her eyes. She didn't know if she died or she destroyed the thing. She slowly opened her eyes to see, just in time, the creature disappear. But then something dark slowly crawled its way to life.

"So don't forget: You are the only one, to open the door."

The creature was way bigger than she has ever seen. It was black and it had hair growing all out of its bunny head. It had a heart shape missing from its body and its yellow glowing eyes stared down at her like daggers. His legs were short, but his arms were long enough to touch the ground.

Applebloom was too scared to do anything. The monster growled as it swung his lazy arm at the filly. Applebloom jumped to the left and barley doge the attack. She ran towards the right arm of the monster and started hitting it with all her might. The monster roared from anger as his minions came to the party. She swung left, than right and defended herself as she tried to the destroy the monster. The monster had enough as he made a dark pool to get the filly.

She was trapped when her right back hoof got stuck in the dark pool. She was slowly drowning as it pulled her in. The dark pool also pushed air away from her body as she breathed it in. She tried her best but, with no luck, drowned in the dark pool. The last thing she saw was the monsters bright yellow eyes.

To Be Continued....

"Woah...what? What was that?!" Your friend asked. He got up...and flipped your living room table.

"The part was getting good! Why in gaming history would they just leave me hanging?!" Your friend asked. Your face, more like your smile, slowly made the troll face.

"You like?" You asked. Your friend was confused at first...until he caught on on what you meant.

"What? I meant on why they didn't end it in the first place. Obviously...it...sucked." Your friend struggled to say. You laugh at his failure and you pause the episode.

"You like the show!"

"Do not!" Your friend counters.

"Alright, come back next Friday, and I'll be watching your every movement and emotion." You say. He/She scowls at you and leaves the house.

This is going to be fun!

Destiny Island

Your friend comes back with his/her baseball cap on and sits next to you. Well, not next to you because you was hooking up the PS2. "Hey, when is the new episode you was talking about?" Your friend asked.

"Um...not gonna watch it today. Gonna watch it later." You say, connecting the plug into a certain slot.

"Then what are you doing?" Your friend asked.

"Gonna play My Little Pony Kingdom Hearts: Friendship is Magic." You say.

"Hold up...let me try." Your friend says.

"Wha? No way I'm gonna let you ruin my game!" You say.

"What do you mean, "Wha?' Just let me try! Remember the bet you owe?" Your friend says. You groan in frustration and you hand him the controller. "Yes! Alright! Let's play!" Your friend says.

You turn on the PS2 and the main screen comes on.

"Who's the lady?" your friend asked.

"First of all, that's Applebloom in human form." You say.

"Is she a bad guy?" your friend asked.

"I don't know! I just got this today!" You yell in anger.

"Chill out, just curious. As why did Hasbro pick this?" your friend asked.

"It wasn't really you, it was the Author. He couldn't find anything proper with Applebloom as a pony in it, so he chose this instead." You explain.

"Makes sense. And...this music stinks." your friend...hold up.

WHAT IN YOUR LIFE DID HE JUST SAY?!?!?

"Give me this controller!" You say as you snatch it in anger. "You need to learn about proper music and awesomeness. If you want the controller back, say the music is wonderful."

"But it's so boring and dull." He/she complains. You stare at him with the most ticked off face that even Jesus has ever seen in his life.

"Alright! Alright! Just don't hurt me. Let's just get the game started." He/she says. You smile and hand him back the controller as he presses the second slot open.

Let's just continue where Applebloom left off.

Applebloom woke up...nowhere near her farm. "What the...?" Applebloom whispered to herself.

Their were four of her friends, and two of them isn't her friend. Their was Twist, their was Spike, and their was...Silver Spoon as well as Diamond Tiara.

Hold on...the door is not open yet. But first...tell me more about your self...

She decided to go to Twist first and she was sitting on the railing part. She slowly move her legs back and forth with a smile. "What do you want to be when you grow up?" Twist asked.

Applebloom opened her mouth to say something...but couldn't think of anything.

What was the point if your in your dreams and your pretty much either trap or something is haunting your brain?

"Ah wanna be the bestest and strongest pony their is!" Applebloom said with a smile.

"Cool!" Twist said. Applebloom went to Spike next and he had a blue rubber ball in his claws. "What are you most afraid of?" Spike asked.

"Not having my cutie mark when Ah get old." Applebloom said sadly.

"Is it really that bad?" Spike asked. Applebloom stumbled in anger as she walked to Diamond Tiara.

Hey, if you want it done, go to something you really want to regret.

"Are you afraid of the dark?" Diamond asked.

"Not really, unless yer in the Everfree Forest." Applebloom said.

"I guess." Diamond said, now staring at the clouds. Applebloom walked to Silver Spoon with curiosity.

"Will you ever forgive...what enemies can't?" Silver asked. Applebloom's brain shut down in stupidity and her eyes started to derp.

"What? Ah...guess." Applebloom said weirdly.

"Thanks." Silver said with a smile.

You want to be the best and strongest pony their is.
You're afraid of not having a cutie mark when your older.
You're not afraid of the dark, unless at a certain location.
And you forgive what enemies can't.

Your adventure begins at dawn.
As long as the sun is rising, your journey should be a pleasant one.

The day you will open the door is both far off and very near...

Good Luck...

Applebloom woke with a slow reaction, but when seeing Diamond's smile, she quickly jolted up in fear. "Nice to see your awake, Applebloom." She says.

"What do you want?" Applebloom asked angrily.

"Don't you remember? We're building a raft to see the wonderful world somewhere." Diamond said as she gives a playful shove. She's trots past Applebloom and stares at the sun. Applebloom couldn't register what was happening, nor did she remember Diamond was nice.

This epic opportunity.

"Why are you so nice?" Applebloom asked.

"I...I just want to make friends. And I already said sorry a million times. But...nopony still wants to be with me." Diamond said sadly.

"Oh. I'm sorry." Applebloom said sadly.

"It's okay, I learned my lesson." Diamond said with a smile.

"Oh, so no one's gonna help?" said a voice. They turned and saw Spike holding a ton of wood and using a smile. "Should've known Applebloom would of slept here." Spike said.

Applebloom blushes in embarrisment and Spike looks at Diamond. "And your just as lazy." Spike said.

"Oh yeah? Last person to reach the boat is a snail!" Diamond said with enthusiasm. Spike and Applebloom looked at each other, and took off to the boat. One carrying a bunch of wood, and one that has tiny legs.

This my friend...is Destiny Island!

The island was glorious. Man, Applebloom actually forgot about the race and looked at the island. The island was built with wooden houses and most of them are really just plain ol' sticks. The sand glittered with a sunny side ocean and Twist, in the background, was playing with a blue rubber ball. Applebloom went to Diamond with a smile and she had a list. "So...are you gonna gather the rest of the supplies?" Diamond asked.

"Sure." Applebloom said. When Diamond isn't being such a prick, she's like a freaking nice angel that God has summoned. "Okay, here is what you need to find: Two logs, one cloths, and one rope. Bring everything back here. Just ask me when you need help, okay?" Diamond asked with a smile.

Applejack nods and takes off where the same place she woke. But...in a place that Applebloom claims it's familiar, but has no idea where she is, it seems like it's a nice place. She see's a log and picks it up. She searches her surroundings, but only to find Silver spoon sitting on the edge of the water and Twist playing with the blue rubber ball. She heads into the Seaweed Shack and onto the Bridge. She see's Spike resting upon a tree and Applebloom picks up the second log. "Hey, Spike!" Applebloom says.

"Did you gather all the stuff for the raft? I gave all my stuff to Diamond." Spike said.

"Not really." Applebloom admitted.

"Speaking of stuff, wanna go for a quick round of a sword fight?" Spike said.

"Sorry, Spike. A lil' busy." Applebloom said.

"Alright, some other time." Spike said. She ran from where Spike was and went to search for the cloth. She ran from the Seaweed Shack and decided to search where no one else would: the wooden houses. She ran to the nearest house and found a over-used cloth. Had a little dirt stains, but it's nothing bad. She used her teeth to grab hold of it and used it like a bag. She tied knots to it to carry the logs and head out.

Nearby the other wooden houses, she checked their and their was rope. She put the rope in her cloth-like bag and went back to Diamond. She showed her the stuff and Diamond squee'd. "Yay! You got the stuff!" said Diamond, now unwrapping the cloth. "Wanna call it a day?"

"Yeah, bit tired." Applebloom admitted.

"Alright, let's go home." Diamond said. They headed out...but their was one problem.

"Um...do you know where home is?" Applebloom asked. Diamond giggled at her question and the sun started to fall into the sunset. They all sat on a tree was able for Spike, Diamond, and Applebloom to sit on. "So...their could be other worlds...right?" Applebloom asked.

"Could be, we can never know staying here." Spike said.

"But how far can a raft take us?" Applebloom asked.

"Who knows." said Spike, now looking at the sun. "If we have to, we can think of something else."

"So, suppose you get to another world, what could you do there?" Diamond said with a small giggle.

Spike thought about this, then chuckles. "Well, haven't really thought about it. It's just, I've always wondered why were on this island. If their are any more worlds out there, why did we end up on this one?" He asked.

"And, suppose their are other worlds, then our's is just a little piece of something much greater. So, we could have just as easily ended up somewhere else, right?" Spike asked again.

"Ah don't know." Applebloom said as Diamond got comfortable. "Exactly." said Spike, now moving away from the tree. "That's why we need to get out there and find out. Just sitting here won't change a thing. It's the same old stuff, so let's go."

"You've been thinking a lot lately, haven't you?" Diamond asked with a smile.

"Thanks to you." Spike said with a dashing bit of anger. Applebloom quickly reacted and watch Spike kept moving his mouth. "If you hadn't come here, I probably wouldn't have thought any of this."

Diamond was growing tears in sadness and Applebloom was ready to bring a wooden sword out of nowhere.

"Diamond." Spike said. She looked at him and tears were ready to pour. "Thanks." Spike said with a smile.

Diamond's tears went away and Applebloom smiled. "Your welcome." Diamond said with a smile.

They left the tree and Applebloom followed Diamond to her house. "Applebloom." She heard. She turned around, and caught some sort of star with leaves and the end.

"What's this?" Applebloom asked.

"You said you wanted one, didn't you?" Spike asked.

"Ah don't remember if Ah wanted one of these." Applebloom said.

"It's a paopu fruit. If two people share one, their destinies become intertwined. They'll remain a part of each other's lives no matter what." Spike said. Applebloom stared at it with curiosity, but really still stuck on the word 'intertwined'.

"C'mon, you know you want to try it." Spike said with a smile as he walked.

"What are you talking-" Spike laughed at Applebloom and took off. Applebloom threw the fruit and chased Spike playfully.
(Turn off music)

(Meanwhile, somewhere far...far away.)

Sweetie Belle, captain and teacher of all wizards, was heading her way to the throne. She approached the most ridiculous size of a door. She knocked on the huge door, and entered through a secret entrance for really small giants. "Hello, your majesty." Sweetie Belle said.

She approach the throne, eyes closed and with a smile. "It's nice to see you this morn-"

Wait...where is the king?!

"WHAT?!" Sweetie Belle yelled in fear. Pluto, the King's trusty dog, had mail in his mouth. Sweetie Belle saw the letter and she used her magic to get hold of the map. She read the letter, detail by detail, just one thing is missing.

What was it? Oh yeah...screaming.

"OHNOOHNOOHNOOHNOOHNOOHNOOHNO...OH NO!!" Sweetie Belle screamed through the halls. When she made it into the royal garden, she saw Scootaloo, leader of the freaking army, sleeping in deep sleep.

"Wake up, Scoot! Wake up! This is serious!" Sweetie Belle said with fear. Scoot still slept like tommorow. Sweetie Belle groaned in frustration and said, "THUNDER!!"

Lighting came in and shocked the filly away...literally. It hit Scoot in the belly and it jolt Scoot awake. She lazily tried to wake herself up, and saw Sweetie Belle. "Sup." Scoot said.

"We've got a problem, but don't tell anypony." Sweetie Belle said.

"You mean anyone?" Scoot asked.

"Huh?"

"We're in the human world you know."

"Yeah, were still ponies!" Sweetie Belle said. Scoot rubbed her chin and shrugged. "What about Queen Minnie?" Scoot asked.

"Nope." Sweetie Belle said.

"Daisy?" Scoot asked. Sweetie Belle yelled 'No' in frustration and was ready to use her magic. "It's top secret!" Sweetie Belle said.

"Princess Celestia?" Scoot asked.

"Stop! I'm trying to tell you something!" Sweetie Belle yelled.

"Luna?" Scoot asked again.

"Are you even listening?!" Sweetie Belle asked.

"Hi princesses and and Minnie!" Scoot said with a smile.

"What?" Sweetie Belle turned around and saw all four of them staring at her with curiosity and a little of suspicion.

"Oh Luna."

To be Continued...

"Holy crap...that white dude is going to be executed!" Your friend says with a smile.

"That was actually awesome." You say.

"Hm...next Friday?" He/She asked.

"Friday." You say. She/He takes his/her stuff and leaves your house.

So close!

Present for favoriting this story. :)
Recommend watching the whole thing, especially 6:09 to the end.

Traverse Town part 1

"Back!" Your friend called through the door. You slowly wake up...and your eyes were drowsy. "Dude/Girl...it's 2:39AM (Pacific Time) in the morning." You complain.

"I know! I just really want to win the bet." Your friend says.

You check the time...

Wait...

MLP episodes start at 3:00PM.

Maybe you could play the game for a while..."Fine. But I'm playing." You say.

Your friend grunts, but goes with it anyway. You turn on the PS2 and you grab the controller. The main menu starts up and you hear the music.

"And once again! Author is having difficulties finding a better picture!" Your friend says.

"Hey! At least he's trying!" You say.

"Whatev's...let's just go." Your friend says.

Applebloom woke up and saw Silver hanging with the fishes. She went over to her and Silver Spoon smiled. "Have you heard about the legendary power of the paopu fruit? They say if you share the it with someone else you really care for, it binds you together forever and ever through eternity! It's so romantic, gotta try that sometime!" Silver said.

Let's hope it's not Twist.

Applebloom left awkwardly and went to talk to Twist. Ever since she has somehow end up on this crazy island, trying to figure out the dream, and trying to adapt to the new Diamond, she's been trying to get to know them. Especially since she doesn't get to see her friends...or her sister...or her big brother...or Ms. Cheerlie...

Um...back to the story!

Wait...in fact, forget Twist. Applebloom decided to go to the Cove and...finish up this weird stuff before she goes insane. She see's Spike and he waves her over. "Hey Applebloom!" Spike says.

"Hey Spike! Need somethin'?" Applebloom asked.

"I always thought that you were a slowpoke. I challenge you to a race!" Spike said proudly.

"Can't. Diamond needs me. Bye!" Applebloom said. Spike sighed in acceptance and watched her leave. Applebloom saw Diamond in a distance and ran to her. Diamond saw her and she sighed in relief. "There you are! I was beginning to wonder if you overslept again." Diamond said.

Applebloom frowned playfully and gave her a light shove. "The raft is almost done. All we need to do now is fill it with food." Diamond said.

She looks at the island, than back at Applebloom. "Hey, have you seen Spike?" Diamond asked.

"Yeah. He's somewhere over there." Applebloom pointed behind the huge wooden tower.

"Could you get him for me?" Diamond asked. Applebloom nodded and she went back to find Spike. He was sitting on the fence staring at the ocean. Once he saw Applebloom, he gave her a sign to come over. Once she did, Spike told her to sit on the fence. "You know," he said, now scratching his chin. "Our raft needs a name. How about the Dragon Cruiser?"

"Nah. Your the only dragon here." Applebloom said.

"Then what would you call it?" Spike asked.

"How 'bout the S.A Acres?" She asked.

"Awesome." Spike said.

"You guys at it again?" a voice asked. The two looked and saw Diamond approaching with a smile. "Fine, I'll be the judge." Diamond said.

"At what again'?" Applebloom asked.

"A race. Don't you remember?" Spike asked.

"Not really." Applebloom admitted.

"Oh well. What are the rules?" Spike asked Diamond.

"The usual: Take any route you want first one to tag that tree and comes back wins." Diamond pointed at the paopu tree close to the raft.

"If Ah win, Ah'm capt'n." said Applebloom, feeling awesome about the race. "And if you win..."

"I get to share the paopu fruit with Diamond." Spike said.

"Huh?" Applebloom never thought Spike would ever say that...EVER. "Deal? The winner gets to share the paopu fruit with Diamond." Spike said.

Is this some sort of trick question?

"Wha...wait a minute." Applebloom said.

"Ready? On my count." Diamond said, now holding a hoof in the air. "3...2...1...GO!"

She threw her hoof down and Applebloom and Spike took off. She made it through the wooden jumps, as well as Spike. She took the tower while Spike took the long way. She took the zip line and made it to the paopu tree. "Made it! Ah win!" Applebloom said with a smirk.

Spike came in and touch the paopu tree with a smile as well. "Good job. But Diamond said you have to touch the paopu tree and make it back, race ya there!" Spike said and he jumped to the next platform. Applebloom jumped to the ground and took the long way there. When she finally made it, Spike was leaning against the wooden wall, waiting for her. "Aw man! It's 0-1 now." She said.

"Guess were naming it the Dragon Cruiser." Spike said with a huge smile. Applebloom frowned in anger and she went to Diamond. "Now you ready to get the food?" She asked.

"A'ight." Applebloom said.

"Okay, we need one seagull egg, three mushrooms, two coconuts, three fish, and fill this up with drinking water." Diamond said as she handed Applebloom a plastic bottle. She decided to go to the ocean as she opened the cap.

"But not from the ocean!" Diamond pleaded. Applebloom froze, shrugged, and walked away to find the food she needed. She went to the nearest coconut tree and bucked the crap out of it. At least two coconuts fell from the tree and she pushed it next to the raft.

She went to the next tree and bucked that as well. Another two fell, and she set those two with the others. She went to a rock that was covering a hole. She pushed it with all her might and the rock slightly moved. Once it moved far enough for Applebloom to fit in, she expected a egg, but it's a mushroom. She went to the Seashore and found some drinkable water. She opened the cap once again and filled it with water, and decided to look for an egg. What she just realized is that she found a secret cave. She entered...and it was dark and the air was stiff. When she found a dead end, their was a door. A door that glowed orange on the cracks of the door.

She looked at the cave and saw drawings of her and Diamond. Both of them had hand-writings, and Applebloom can definitely tell that some of her handwriting is on the wall of the caves. The writing's had white chalk, and she slowly touch it and slid it downwards. "Ah...Ah don't remember this." Applebloom said.
(Stop the Destiny Island music.)

She looked at two more paintings, and it had the face of Diamond and Applebloom. When she saw those two faces, her 3 year old memories started to flow through her brain like music. She saw visions of her and Diamond drawing each other's faces. They were both young, maybe 2-3 years old when they drew this, but they had smiles. A smile that Applebloom thought that she never see.

It was happiness.

But does this mean that everything that Applebloom lived through, Ponyville, the cutie marks, her friends, and her family, was a lie? Applejack...Scootaloo...Sweetie Belle...Big Mac...was all that a lie? Next thing she knows, she's drawing on the rock. She kept lightly hitting the rock, making it look like she's giving a paopu fruit to Diamond. Which is a little weird if you think about it. When she was done, she saw a mushroom resting right next to her. She picks it up, sets down the chalk-rock and decides to look at the-

What was that?

(Stop the music)

"Huh? Who's there?!" Applebloom asked the darkness in the cave.

"I've come to see the door in this world." said the voice. The voice was dark, low, and it echoed through the cave.

Think the lowest voice over from a movie you heard, add Morgan Freeman, now put that together and deepen the voice.

That's how low it was.

"Huh?" Applebloom was still confused by all this. What door? Who is this voice? And why scare her in the middle of a sad moment?!

"This world has been connected." said the voice.

"Wh-what are you talking 'bout?" Applebloom asked in fear. She wanted to run, but some energy is forcing her to stay and her body just froze.

"Tied to the darkness. Soon to be completely eclipsed." It echoed.

"Well, whoever you are, stop scarin' me like this!" Applebloom ordered, but soon to realized...that whatever it was...is not from this world. "Huh? Wh-where did you come from?" Applebloom asked.

"You do not yet know what lies beyond the door." It echoed.

"So yer from another world!" Applebloom said.

"Their is so very much to learn." It echoed. Applebloom looked at the exit...and saw a thing. A thing that stood taller than her, but way to dark to see. His black hood covers his face and body, but still remains present. "You understand so little." it said calmly.

"Oh yeah? Well..you'll see!" said Applebloom with so much anger that she almost got out of her traumatized body. "Ah'm gonna get out and learn what's out there!"

"A meaningless effort. One who knows nothing can understand nothing." It said calmly. Applebloom turned around and saw the door all up in her grill. It's glowing orange still glowed through the cracks and Applebloom was finally curious to figure out what's on the other side. Maybe it could be a pack of hungry lions, maybe it's an adventure, maybe it's a way back off this crazy island and back to Sweet Apple Acres, or...maybe it's just a dead end to this endless dream. Maybe the door hides truth's or lies...

...Or maybe this island is holding some secrets she doesn't know about.

When she turned to the hooded thing...it was gone

It disappeared like she was imagining something.

Was she going insane? Maybe it was all in her head...but how do you know of it's your imagination if he proves their's a door right next to you?!

(Start the Destiny Islands Music)
(Checkpoint)

Applebloom shrugged and went back outside. "One more mushroom..." She said to herself.

She went to Seashore and into Bridge, and saw a Seagull egg sitting on top of the tree. She gasped in excitement, but...how was she suppose to climb a tree with no opposable thumbs? She gave the tree a good kick and the egg fell. "I got it!" She said to herself.

She jumped for the egg, and she barely caught it if it wasn't for her tripping over a rock. She sighed in relief and she rolled the egg to find the third mushroom. She rolled the egg into the Cove and saw the mushroom sitting next to the tower. Applebloom rolled the egg to the raft, and went back for the mushroom. When she did, she returned back to the raft and Diamond smiled. "Hey Diamond, what's that you makin'?" Applebloom asked, pointing towards the necklace on her neck.

"This?" asked Diamond, holding the necklace. "I'm making a necklace off of thalassa shells. In the old days, sailors always wore thalassa shells. They were suppose to ensure a safe voyage."

"Neat. And I got all the stuff you wanted." Applebloom said.

"Hmm...you got all of them." Diamond said with a smile. Applebloom cheered in excitement. "But..." The cheer didn't last so long.

"You forgot three fish." Diamond said. Applebloom blushed in embarrassment and left to find the fish. She went behind the raft and swam in the ocean. The first two fish she caught was easy, the third fish however...

"Just...let...me...catch...you!" Applebloom breathed every word with every movement. The third fish just swam away from her and Applebloom groaned in annoyance. She pounced on the fish, but all it did was scare away the fish and make Applebloom's hair wet. The hair sat in front of her face and she moved it from her eyes. The fish sat next to her and taunted it her by moving in circles. "Why you little-!" was all Applebloom said before it accidentally swam to shore.

Dumb fish.

Applebloom laughed in triumph and brought the fish to Diamond. "Okay, three fish. Now what?" Applebloom asked tiredly. "Yay! Here's your award." Diamond said.

Obtained a Hi-Potion

Was this some sort of joke? What kind of pony gives another pony a potion as a reward?! It's not a video game!

Oh wait...

"Tired? Ready to call it a day?" asked Diamond, now stepping off the raft. "Remember, tomorrow's the big day."

Applebloom nodded and they left the raft. It was sunset and the two were sitting on the deck.

"You know...Spike has changed." Diamond said out of the blue.

"What do you mean?" Applebloom asked.

"Well..." Diamond couldn't think of an answer and she hummed in thought. "You okay?" Applebloom asked.

Diamond smiled at an idea she just thought of. "Applebloom! Let's just take the raft and go, just the two of us!" She said.

That's a terrible idea...yet a good one.

"Wha?" Applebloom asked.

"JK." She said with a smile.

"What's gotten into you?" asked Applebloom with a small giggle. "You're the one that's changed."

"Maybe." Diamond said sadly. "You know, I was a little afraid at first, but now I'm ready. No matter where I go or what I see I know that I can always come back here. Right?"

"Yeah!" Applebloom said with glee.

"That's good." Diamond said, sounding a little depressed. It was quiet for a moment, but than Diamond started again. "Applebloom, don't ever change." She said.

"Huh?" Applebloom asked. Diamond got up from the deck and stood up.

"I just can't wait. Once we sail, it'll be great." Diamond said.

(Somewhere far...far away)

Sweetie Belle,

Sorry to rush off without saying goodbye, but their's big trouble brewing. Not sure why, but the stars have been blinking out, one by one. And that means disaster can't be far behind. I hate to leave you all, but I've gotta go check into it. Their's someone with a "key" -- the key to our survival. So I need you and goofy to go find him and stick with him. Got it? We need that key or we're doomed! So go to Traverse Town and find Leon. He'll point you to the right direction.

P.S Would you apologize Minnie for me? Thanks.

"Oh dear, what could this mean?" Daisy Duck asked.

"It means we'll just have to trust the king." Queen Minnie said.

"I sure hope he's alright." Scoot said.

"Your highness." quoted Sweetie Belle, now saluting. "Don't worry. We'll find the king and this 'key'."

"Thank you, both of you." Celestia chimed in motherly.

"Luna, can you take care of-"

"Of course. Thou be careful, now, both of you." Luna said to Sweetie Belle.

"Oh, and to chronicle your travels, he will accompany you." Minnie pointed at the table. Sweetie Belle, since she was still a filly, had to squint in order to see something move. When she saw it...it was a small flea, or a cricket, and he was bouncing up and down. "Over here!" He said.

Definitely a cricket.

"Cricket's the name." He said as he fixed his hat. "Jimmy Cricket, at your service."

Jimmy Cricket? Really? That's a terrible name.

"We hope for your safe return. Please help the king." Minnie said. They all bowed to Sweetie Belle...even Scoot. "Your coming too!" Sweetie a belle said as she yanked Scoot away from the princesses and Queen.

"But I don't wanna!" Scoot complained.

"Wait, so your world disappeared too?" Scoot asked, now walking down a huge amount of steps.

"It was terrible! We all scattered!" Jimmy said, trying to stay on Scoot's helmet.. "And as far as I can see, I'm the only one who made it to the castle."

"Scoot?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"Oh! I gotcha'!" said Scoot as she realized something. "While we're in other worlds, we can't let on where were from. We gotta protect the world border."

"Order." Sweetie Belle corrected.

"Tomato, tamato, same diff." Scoot said.

When they finally reached the bottom, Scoot continued. "I guess we need new duds when we get there." Scoot said.

"Do you even know what duds even mean?" Sweetie Belle asked with frustration.

"No, but it sounds cool." Scoot said. They went into the room, and it was the Space Launch Room. They past all the mechanics and to the walkie-talkie-thingy.

"Hello up there? Sweetie Belle to launch crew. You there?" Sweetie Belle asked. She waited a few moments and nothing happened. "Anytime your ready." She said impatiently.

After she said that, a hand came down and grabbed both of them by the tail. Scoot was confused, and Sweetie Belle was not happy about it. The mouse head opened and it was ready for the Gummi Ship. "Blast off!" Sweetie Belle pointed at the exit.

Unfortunately, the arrow pointed downwards, making the Gummi Ship fall. The two, especially the cricket, screamed their heads off as the Gummi Ship fell to it's doom. On the planet, the Gummi Ship was farted out of the planted and it blast off to Traverse Town.

Traverse Town here we come!

More nightmares, here we come.

Applebloom shuttered in her little home as the cold night breeze entered the room. "This can't be real. This ain't real. Ah wanna go home." Applebloom said sadly.

She looked around her room, and it was the same as the one at home. The bed was a lime greenish, the walls had little stickers of apples, and it was still messy from when Babs Seeds came to visit. Was it even real? Was all this a dream? It can't be real...right? Those same three questions flowed through the poor fillies head, until she heard either a bomb or... "A storm?" Applebloom looked out the window.

Man...sure hope it doesn't hit the raft.

Wait...

"The raft!" Applebloom said shocked. She got out of bed and ran into the island. What she didn't know, was that sitting in the house...was her family. "Applebloom, the apple pie is ready. Applebloom?" the voice called out. It sounded more like...Applejack.

When Applebloom made it, a dark glowing purple sphere hovered above the island. "What is that?" Applebloom asked herself.

She made it to the dock and she saw both Spike's and Diamond's boat. To bad before she got to say anything, not only dark bunnies appeared, but dark small ponies as well.

Applebloom gasped in fear and...wait...

Aw crap, she forgot her sword!

The bunny swung at her and she stumbled back. "Y-your real!" She said fearfully. The bunny swung again, and Applebloom almost fell into the water.

"S-stay away!" She begged. The bunny gave one last swing before it was bucked hard enough to disappear. The sword came from it's body and Applebloom breathed heavily. The shadow pony came in and it raised it's arm. She grabbed the sword with one powerful swing to make the pony disappear. Applebloom smiled in triumph, but she has got to find Spike and Diamond! She checked the bridge and saw Spike standing there so calmly. "Spike!" She called out in fear. "Where's Diamond?! I thought she was with you!"

"The door...has opened." Spike said calmly.

"Huh?"

"The door has opened, Applebloom. Now we can go to the outside world!" Spike said.

"What are you talking about?, we've gotta find Diamond!" Applebloom said.

Never thought she say that under pressure.

"Diamond's coming with us!" Spike said. This struck Applebloom harder than a human battering ram.

"Once we step through, we might not be able to come back." He said, looking at the huge purple sphere. "We may never be able to see our friends again. Theirs no turning back. But this may be our only chance, we can't let fear stop us. I'm not afraid of the darkness!"

Spike held out his claws for Applebloom. "Spike." She said sadly.

The darkness came from the ground and got hold of Spike. She ran to him, but the darkness got of hold of her as well. She reached out as far as she could, but Spike didn't try, so it made it impossible for her to grab. She reached out once more...

...And failed.

The darkness wrapped her up and it stopped her breathing. But...she saw a light glow. When she opened her eyes, the darkness was gone...but so was Spike. She felt something mouth and spat out the huge key.

"The key from my dream." Applebloom said to herself. The dark bunnies and ponies came back and Applebloom gasped in fear. She ran past them and found a glowing white door. She entered and ran into the cave. When she made it to the dead end, she saw Diamond sitting in front of the door. "Diamond!" She called out.

"Applebloom." Diamond said sadly. The door blasted open and blasted Diamond away. Applebloom tried to catch her, but when she came to, she wasn't actually there. She just...disappeared. The door gave one more huge blast and it forced Applebloom away. When she collided into something, she was out cold from the sudden attack. When she came to, she was on an island. An island that was floating above Destiny Island. "Woah!" Applebloom moved away from the edge, and turned.

She saw the huge thing from her dream and she gasped in fear.

"Not you again!" Applebloom yelled. The huge thing gave one epic swing and it collided with the filly. She almost went back to the edge in pain. She slowly tried to get up, but was to slow when the thing's right hand gave her a huge punch. She slid to her right and almost fell from the platform. She could hear it laugh. Laughing at her failure. When she got up from the sudden pain, she realized that she dropped the key from when she was hit. When the huge thing charged up his hand, he brought it down with so much force it looked like a meteor.

Applebloom barely dodge the attack and ran to the key. She picked it up, and attacked the huge thing's hand. The charged attack was delayed and the monster groaned in furious pain. She jumped in the air and repayed the monster with attacks. The monster groan in defeat and it ragdoll it's way up to the sphere. Applebloom tried to hold on to the key in her mouth, and still hold on to an object, but...it wasn't that smart. She slipped from the object and was sucked into the sphere.

(Stop the music)
Sweetie Belle, Scoot, and somehow Pluto (who stowed away on the ship) the dog and casually walking through the town. When Scoot decided to look at the stars, she pointed at the fainting star. "Look! A star's going out!" Scoot pointed.

The star was fainting, then it disappeared into the night. "Come on, we've got to hurry!" Sweetie Belle said. They ran into the town to find the person who has this 'key'.

By the way, welcome to Traverse Town!

While they was walking, Sweetie Belle was impatient. "Where's that key?" She asked.

"Hey, maybe we ought to find this, 'Leon'!" Scoot said with a smile.

Pluto was heading to the left while Sweetie Belle head to the right. "Uh, Sweetie Belle." Scoot pointed out. "I think we should follow-"

"Aw what do you know you big palooka?" Sweetie Belle said with anger.

"Your just angry because the Gummi Ship didn't have any oranges." Scoot said as she followed Sweetie Belle.

"Just follow!" Sweetie Belle yelled. Scoot shrugged and called out to Pluto. "Come on!" She yelled.

What they didn't know, was that Pluto has found Applebloom. She slept soundly and Pluto gave her a lick big enough to wake her up. "Ugh...what a dream." Applebloom said as she went back to sleep.

Pluto gave one manly push to the belly and Applebloom woke up like a electricity shock. "That isn't a dream!" Applebloom said with fear.

She looked around the ally and boxes in curiosity. "Where am Ah?" Applebloom asked. She looked at the sky and sighed. "Oh Celestia." She said to herself.

She looked at the yellow dog and it waited. "Do you know where we are?" Applebloom asked the dog. Pluto just turned and ran from her. "Wait!" She called out, but it was already to late. She tried to follow the dog, but she made it into the middle of town.

"So weird." She said to herself. "I'm in another world!"

She went to the accessory shop and saw...huh...guess Ms. Cheerlie was right.

Humans are real.

(Stop music)
"That battle was awesome." Your friend says.

"Kay...now can you leave?!" you asked.

"Fine fine." Your friend says as he/she leaves the room. You save the game and get in your bed. You rest your eyes. Finally...he's/she's gone.

...

SON OF A-

Wait...

You hit the snooze button and you close your eyes.

To bad their is no snooze button.

Traverse Town Part 2

Stupid freaking alarm clock. You get up, yawn, then you go to the kitchen...to see your friend siting on your living room couch. "What the? Why are you still here?!" You asked in anger.

"It's 9:08. I'm sure it's okay to chill at your house until you want to play the game again." your friend said.

"We're not playing the game this time." You say as you open the cereal box.

"Huh?" He/She asked.

"The new episode starts at 3:00, and I really don't want to miss it." You explain. Your friend gets up from the couch in shock. "Dude. The game is better than the show! Plus, it's six hours from now!" He/She complains.

"No it isn't. My alarm clock was set to work during 1:00 - 2:00 since I...oversleep sometimes." You hesitated. You check your phone and it said the exact time.

2:53

Man...not only did he get the time wrong, but it's an hour and 50 minutes late. "Alright...alright. Just prepare the popcorn." He/She says.

"Make it yourself." You say. He/She groans in frustration and get's off the couch. You approach the couch with your bowl of cereal.

Let's get this show on the road.

"Hey their! How can I-- Oh...it's only a kid." said the human, a little shock that a filly has entered the shop..

"Hey! I'm not a kid! I'm a full grown mare!" Applebloom argued. "And the name's Applebloom."

"Alright, alright, simmer down." said the human, looking for something important. "Why the long face, Applebloom? You lost or somethin'?"

"No! Well, maybe. Where are we?" Applebloom asked, and just realizing that nobody's with her.

"Huh?" the cashier was confused at her statement, and stopped from whatever he was looking for.

"Traverse Town?" Applebloom asked. "So, Gramps, is this really another world?"

"Don't call me gramps! The names Cid!" the human said, now trying to calm down. "Anyway, not sure what your talking about, but this sure ain't your island."

Applebloom thought about this, rubbed her chin, then shrugged. "Guess Ah gotta find Spike and Diamond now."

"Well, good luck doing whatever it is your doing." said Cid, facing towards the filly. "If you ever run into trouble, you come to me. I'll look out for you."

Applebloom said her thank you(s) and left to the First District. When she scanned her surroundings, she was in Traverse Town, if called correctly. It was night and the lights shined it blissful area and people walked through the area. She looked at a sign as it pointed North and East. "Guess I'm goin' east." She said.

She headed her way up the stairs, but found a chest hiding in the dark. "A treasure chest! If only Scoots and Sweetie Belle were here." Applebloom said sadly.

She left the blue chest and headed her way into Second District. When she entered, she saw a human (male because of his size) running, but tripped over something. He was scared to death, and his heart popped out of his chest and made a new creature. The nightmare rabbits appeared from the ground, and the key appeared in Applebloom's mouth. "The ccreature's from the island!" She said through her teeth and key.

She made a 3 - combo and the bunny flew towards a building, disappearing from sight. "Yeah buddy!" Applebloom said, like a boss!

A bunny got a hold of her neck and was chocking her out. Another bunny got her legs and started pulling. Her bones started to CrACk and tears were falling from Applebloom's eyes. Since she just realized that the key was still in her mouth (and leaving bite marks on the key), she swung it at her legs and killed the first bunny.

Her legs fell to the ground and her vision started to get blurry. She threw her key in the air...and it killed the bunny chocking her. Two more approached and she grabbed the key. Her legs were numb, and she was chocking on air, but she wasn't about to give up!

She threw her key and it bounced off at both the bunnies and back to her. It dropped something on the ground, but she was to busy chocking on air and trying to see if she could walk. She took a step, and landed hard onto the ground. "Ah wish Scoot and Sweetie Belle was here." Applebloom whimpered. She began to cry, but something she remembered something.

The Hi - Potion! of course!

She brought the potion out of thin air, and drank it. Her legs forced her to stay straight up, and she felt...POWERFUL!!! YEAH!!!

(Traverse Music)

"Woah. This feels great!" Applebloom said. She thought back to when the dude's heart just...flew away, and smiled. "Ah guess you can say that he had a heart attack!" Applebloom joked. She jumped to the bottom and found a small pathway, but only to be interrupted by three more bunnies. Her key appeared and she sighed, but she then yelled in bravery. "Come on!" She yelled.

(Battle music)

One bunny jumped towards her and she gives one epic swing to the bunny, making him fly backwards into a wall. Another bunny tried to jump on her, was was bucked hard enough to disappear. The last one shrunk into a shadow, and Applebloom tried to stab it, but had no affect. "Huh?" She asked.

It grew again and tired to hit her once more, only to be hit on the ribs and disappear.

(Traverse Town Music)

Applebloom laughed at the bunnies failure, but she saw something that caught her eye.

A chest.

And munny.

"Huh?" Applebloom asked. She picked up the munny, and it found it's way to her pocket. "Uh...okay?" She said to herself.

She looked at he chest, and opened it.

Lucid Shard

"Neat." She said. Applebloom went into the pathway and went into Third District. Unfortunately, she didn't find anything more Interesting than those black bunny things. "Crud!" She yelled. She didn't have time for this! Especially since you, the reader, doesn't want to change the musicb again, so let's skip to the chase and say she barely made it out alive, but leveled up to Level 2...or 1? Oh well, she leveled up though.

"Right...accessory shop." Applebloom said. She went to the First District and went to the shop, and greeted Cid. "Welcome back, Applebloom. Need anything?" He asked.

"No. Just wanted to say hi." Applebloom said.

"Oh, alright. See ya." Cid said.

"Bye!" Applebloom said. She went outside, and was greeted by a voice.

"They'll come at you out of nowhere." it said. The voice sounded male, and it sounded calm.

"Who are you?" Applebloom asked. The person shwed itself, and he was dead serious. "And they'll keep coming at you, as long as you continue to wield the Keyblade."

"But why?" He asked himself. "Why would it choose a kid like you?"

"Hey!" Applebloom said affended. "What's that suppose to mean?"

"Never mind. Now, let's see that Keyblade."

"Wha? Theirs no way yer getting this!"

"Fine, have it your way." He said. Applebloom gasped when he saw his face. "Snails? Is that you?" She asked. He smirked at her failure.

"Hehe. Nope." He said. 'Snails' brought out his Keyblade, or rather the gunblade, and it scared Applebloom.

(Battle Music)

He attacked first and it caused a small explosion. It gave instant damage to Applebloom and she was almost ready to pass out. "Ah ain't...going down...like this!" She said with every breath.

She swung her Keyblade at him and 'Snails' wasn't affected. He gave one final slash on Applebloom, and she was knocked out cold.

(Stop the music)

She fell backwards, and 'Snails' didn't even smile. "Hey! You found it, Leon!" said a voice.

'Snails' (Now called Leon) turned around and saw...Twist? Wasn't she just on the island? "Things look like it's about to get worst. A lot worst." Leon said.

"Man, theirs nobody here. Sure is creepy." Scoot said.

"Aw phooey, I'm not scared!" Sweetie Belle said with a smirk. Something touched her and her forehead turned blue like one of those anime shows. She flew upwards and landed on Scoot's back, causing her to fall and collided to the ground. "Excuse me, did the King sent you?" asked a voice.

The voice was female, and it sounded very shy. They both turned to see...

...Fluttershy.

No way.

"Wake up you lazy bum!" said a voice. Applebloom sat up, and shook her head to get rid of the blur. She looked to her left to see... "You okay?" asked Diamond.

"Ah guess." Applebloom said, still not fully focusing on the situation on hand-er...hoof. "Those creatures that attacked you are after the Keyblade." Diamond said.

"But it's your heart they really want." She continued. "Because you wield the Keyblade."

"Ah'm so glad yer okay, Diamond." Applebloom said.

"Diamond? Who are you talking about?" Diamond...wait...

Whut?

"I'm the great ninja Twist!" She continued.

"Huh?" Applebloom's vision cleared up and really saw Silver Spoon up close. "I think you might have overdone it, Snails." Silver Spoon said.

"That's Leon. Just because I have a cutie mark marked as a snail doesn't mean my name is Snails." Leon said with a little anger. From a distance, Applebloom can see the Keyblade resting on the cabnet. "The Keyblade." Applebloom said.

"Yeah...we had to get that away from you to shake off those creatures. Turns out, that's how they were tracking you." Twist said like a school girl. Apparently, without braces, she sounded like she was a leader.

"It was the only way to conceal you heart from them, but it won't work for long." Snails said so calmly, he sounded like a original adult. "Still, hard to believe that you of all people are the chosen one."

He grabbed the Keyblade with his mouth, and made it appear in Applebloom's mouth. "Hmf?" Applebloom said surprised.

"Well, I suppose beggars can't be choosers." Snails...uh...'Leon' said.

"Why don't you start making sense! What's going on?" Applebloom asked frustrated.

"Okay, you know their are many other worlds out there, besides your castle and this town, right?" asked Fluttershy.

"Yeah." Scoot said.

"But they're suppose to be a secret!" Sweetie Belle said.

"They've been secret, because they've never been connected, until now." Fluttershy explained. "When the Heartless came, everything changed."

"The Heartless?" Applebloom asked.

"The ones who attacked you, remember?" Twist asked.

"Those it without hearts." Snails said, drinking a swing of Coco Cola.

"The darkness in people's hearts, that's what attracts them." Twist said.

"And their is darkness, within every heart." Snails said.

"Hey, have you heard of someone named Ansem?" Twist asked.

"Ansem?" Scoot asked.

"He was studying the Heartless." said Fluttershy, still remaining calm at the fillies. "He recorded all of his findings in a very detailed report."

"Wow...uh...can we see it?" Scoot asked.

"It's pages are scattered everywhere." Fluttershy said sadly.

"Scattered?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"To many worlds." Fluttershy said.

"Oh! Then maybe the King went to find them!" Scoot said with a smirk.

"Yes, those were my thoughts exactly." Fluttershy explained.

"We gotta find them quick!" Scoot said, now losing her smirk.

"Wait!" said Sweetie Belle, not ready for the information given. "First, we need that 'key'!"

"That's right, the Keyblade." Fluttershy said.

"So...this is the key?" Applebloom asked.

"Exactly!" Twist said.

"The Heartless has great fear of the Keyblade. That's why they'll keep coming at you, no matter what." Snails said.

"But, Ah didn't ask for this." Applebloom said.

"The Keyblade chooses it's master." Twist explained. "And it chose you."

"So, tough luck." Snails said, now resting on the wall like a boss.

"How did all this happen?" asked Applebloom, now resting the Keyblade on the side. "Ah remember being at Sweet Apple Acres..."

She gasped in realization, both her home and island was ruined. "Wait a minute. What happened to Ponyville?! Destiny Island? Mah Home?! Spike! Diamond!" Applebloom asked.

Snails scoffed in laughter and...well...laughed in a whisper tone. "Ponyville? Sweet Apple Acres? Those are some really dumb names." He said.

"Hey! Their not stupid! We work for apples and sell them like Applejack would do!" Applebloom said.

"Applejack? You mean the box of cereal kind of Applejack?" Snails asked with a taunting smirk.

"Leon, stop being mean!" Twist said.

"No, he's right." Applebloom said sadly. "They're not real anymore, Ah guess."

(Traverse Music)

"Hey, just a tip: I heard that Keyblades can open all sorts of locks. Give it a try next time you see a treasure chest." Twist said.

Siting on the table was a chest just waiting to be open. "Meh." Applebloom ignored the chest and went to Snails.

"Soon, the Heartless will find you. Best to prepare yourself." Leon said.

"Prepare myself?" Applebloom asked.

"To fight for your life. Are you ready?" Snails asked.

"Yeah!" Applebloom said with passion.

"Twist, let's go join Fluttershy." Snails said calmly. "She should be there with the other visitors."

Other visitors? Applebloom thought. Out of nowhere, a heartless appeared in the room. "Twist! Go!" Snails ordered.

(Battle Music)
(Checkpoint)

On the other room, Sweetie Belle was curious about the screaming, when she tried to open it, she was child abused by a door and she slammed into the wall.

"Don't worry about the shorties, worry about the boss." Leon (Snails) said. He took off, and left Applebloom with six armored heartless.

She tried to take off, but the soilders got one fatal hit to the back. She tripped and fell to the ground. "Fine...have it yer way." Applebloom said.

She swung her key to the Soilder, but it didn't die so easy. One tried to kick her, but she just bucked it far enough to regain some energy. She hit on to her left and forced it to stay back. And she killed the same one that hit her on the back. It dropped a whole lot of munny and health, and this made Applebloom smile. She hit one far enough to hit the one that was bucked early, which soon to conclude that the one that was bucked was killed.

She gave a full 360 degree and killed all four of them, and earning a lot of experience. "Aw yeah! Wait 'til Ah tell Scoot and Sweetie Belle this!" Applebloom said. She ran out of...somewhere, and ended up back to Second District. She ran into the Third District as fast as possible.

Meanwhile, Scoot saw Applebloom in the distance, but when she turned around she met two soilders back on each corner. "Are these the Heartless guys?" Scoot asked, hiding behind her shield.

"Let's go get 'em, Scoots!" Sweetie Belle said. It worked well for about...two - three seconds, before they was kicked out of the building, and landing on Applebloom. When they fell, their eyes spun in circles, but they saw the key. "They key!" Scoot and Sweetie Belle said.

"Scoots! Sweetie Belle!" Applebloom said with a smile.

"Do I know you?" Scoots asked.

That was straight up cruel.

Pillars appeared, blocking every entrance it could and soilders appeared everywhere! "C'mon Scoots and Sweetie Belle! Let's go get 'em!" Applebloom said.

(Moar Battle Music)

Applebloom took one direction, Sweetie Belle took the left, and Scootaloo took the right. Two soilders at a time. It was straight up easy at first, and Applebloom leveled up after that, gaining strength. When all the soilders died, something fell out of the sky. It bounced, and it connected itself to pieces. "What is that?!" Sweetie Belle asked.

Oh no...

IT'S GUARD ARMOR!!

"Piece of cake." Applebloom said with a grin.

"Uh...okay?!" Scoot said with fear. They jumped the creature down! Applebloom had the feet, Sweetie Belle had the right arm, and Scoot had the left arm. The pieces soon fell apart from their attacks, but it became more angry. When Applebloom got the last hit, their health, defense, and magic increased. Why?

'Caused they leveled up, that's why!

Guard Armor was shaking like an earth quake, until it's head fell out, and a crystal heart came out. That's when Applebloom obtained the Brave Warrior ring.

(Stop Music)

"So...you were looking for me?" Applebloom asked. Both Scoot and Sweetie Belle nodded. "They, too, have been seeking the weilder of the Keyblade." Snails said.

"Hey, why don't you come with us? We can go to other worlds on our vessel." Scoot said.

Applebloom sat their, but something was itching her brain. "Ah wonder if Ah can find Spike and Diamond." Applebloom asked.

"Of course!" said Sweetie Belle with a huge smile.

"Are you sure?" Scoot whispered to Sweetie Belle.

"Who knows." said Sweetie Belle, obviously lieing to Applebloom and losing her smile. "But we need her to come with us to help us find the King."

"Applebloom, go with them." Snails ordered. "Especially if you want to find your friends."

"Yeah, Ah guess." Applebloom said sadly.

"But you can't come along looking like that, understand?" Sweetie Belle said. "No frowning. No sad face, okay?"

"Yeah! You gotta look awesome, like us!" Scoot said.

"This boat runs on happy faces." Sweetie said.

"Happy?" Applebloom asked. "Ah can try adorable."

"Sure, try." Sweetie Belle said. She scoffed in laughter. No way that Applebloom was much more adorable than tha-

...

...

...

...

Oh crap.

...

...

...

...

...

ADORABLE COMPETITION ACTIVATED!!

This made Sweetie Belle's jaw just...drop, and made Scoot laugh. "BWUHAHAHAHA!! Oh man. I never thought I see the day where you actually beat Sweetie Belle in a adorable competition!" Scoot said.

"Alright, Ah'll come." Applebloom said.

"Sweetie Belle." Belle murmured, putting her hoof in the middle.

"Scootaloo." Scoot said, wiping a tear and doing the same like Sweetie Belle..

"Ah'm Applebloom." She said. Applebloom already knew who they were, but since they don't know who she is, she'll just play along with it...for now. "All for one, and one for all!" They raised their hoofs in the air, like they did when they actually knew each other.

Those were the good ol' days.

That little squirt took down that heartless! Who'd had thought it? asked a voice.

Such is the power of the Keyblade. The child's strength is not his own. said another voice.

Why don't we just turn him into a Heartless? That'll settle things quick enough. said a female voice.

And the brats friends are the Kings lackeys! the voiced said as he purred 'brat'. Swoggle me eyes, they're all bilge rats by the look of them.

Your no prize yourself. said a villain voice, than laughing.

Shut up! ordered the other voice.

Enough. ordered the female voice. The Keyblade has chosen him. Will it be he who conquers the darkness? Or will the darkness swallow him? Either way, he could be quite useful.

After some weird reunion and earning 100 munny, Applebloom was ready. "The Gummi Ship is just outside the gate." Sweetie Belle said.

"The whut?" Applebloom said seriously confused.

"That's our ship." Sweetie Belle said.

"Wait 'til you see it!" Scoot said with a huge smile.

"Hold on." Sweetie Belle said as she was digging in her cape - pocket. She brought out a piece of floating fire and forced Applebloom to put it in her coat pocket.

"Applebloom, that was for you." She said.

Attained the power of fire.

Learned the fire magic spell

"Scoot, give him that other thing." Sweetie Belle ordered.

"Huh? Oh yeah!" Scoot said.

Obtained dodge roll

"Come on! Let's go!" Applebloom said with excitement.

"Not until we're ready." Scoot said.

"Ah'm ready! C'mon!" Applebloom said.

"Alright, alright, where too?" Sweetie Belle said as they aboard the Gummi Ship.

"Hmm...Olympus Coliseum!" Applebloom said as she hit the start button.

"Alright, let's go!" They all said.

"Huh...that was awesome." Your friend says.

"Alright, leave!" You beg

"Alright alright, well...see ya." You friend says as he/she leaves the door.

Maybe making this bet wasn't such a good idea.

Coliseum Part 1

You get back from work...sucks. Your boss has been yelling at you for not bothering to help your workers. Wasn't your fault...just busy and observing the new episode of MLP. In fact...you remember it pretty clearly.

You were at work, staring hard at the screen if your computer. "Work...do work." You say to your computer. You weren't always the brightest, but someone, or somethings got to do it. Your worker comes around the corner and asked, "Not doing your work again, eh?" He/She asked.

Good lord you hated this worker. Mocking you, and hating you for acting like a child while watching a little girl show. You swear you caught him/her once watching Dora. Who's laughing now? "What do you mean 'again'?" You asked in concerned.

"Wouldn't want the boss knowing you slacking off and watching a little girl show, your practically to old for the show anyway." He/She explained.

"My favorite part was when you shut your mouth." You say. He/She stops talking in anger as you smile. "I like that too."

"Just do your work or don't come back here at all." He/She said in anger as he/she stomped away. You sighed and you stared at your watch-GOOD LORD IT'S ON!!!!

You scramble your mouse in fear and quickly changed the browser to the new episode.

When they made it, the place was obviously sandy, but huge. Stone pillars kept it up, and Applebloom breathed the scenery. "This is amazing!!" She said with her smile wide from ear to ear.

"In the ship...you said you weren't familiar with this. You sure you just knocked your head hard?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"I'm sure. Ah don't know any of this. But...whatever side is real, Ah hope we can met again soon... When Ah find a way home, that is." Applebloom said.

"Let's not worry about that!! C'mon!! Let's go inside!!" Scoot said as she took for the door. When they ran inside, they saw a little red goat, having trouble putting up the sign. They awkwardly stared at the goat, who paid no attention to them. "Um..." Applebloom said, breaking the silence.

"Eh, good timing. Give me a hand, will ya? Move that pedestal over there for me." He said, still not giving a hoof about the intruders. :I gotta spuce this place up for the games."

They did what they were told, and all three pushed with all their might, but it just wouldn't budge! "Is it...suppose...to be...this heavy?!" asked Scoots, taking breathes very had push. "This...is ridiculous!!"

They all stopped to take their breathes before heading back to the goat. "It's way to heavy to push!!" Applebloom complained.

"What?!" the goat said shocked. "To heavy?! Since when have you been such a little-?!"

He stopped to see three fillies, before getting angry. "Oh...wrong guy. What're you doing here?!" He asked angry. "This here the world-famous Coliseum--heroes only! And I got my hands full for the games. So run along pipsqueak."

Applebloom couldn't help but feel angry. It looks like this goat has some issues in his life. "Look, it's like this," He continued, only tall enough to reach fillies height. "Heroes are coming from all over to fight ferocious monsters right here in the Coliseum.

Scoot was frustrated as he was, and she got into his face. "We got heroes--" now standing with her friends. "--right here!! We are the heroes standing in front of you."

"Yup!! She's the real hero chosen by the Keyblade!" Sweetie Belle said.

"And were heroes too!" Scoot chimmed in. Howeve, the red goat...thing didn't take it seriously. "Hero?! That runt?!" He laughed as he finished, and it only angered the three fillies..

"What's so funny? Ah've fought a buncha monstes!" Applebloom said with pride. He continued laughing, but his seriousness came back. "Hey, if you can't even push this--" he said, pushing on this pedestal, not even moving it slightly.

"--you can't call yourself--" now doing the wimpiest positions on moving the pedestal. "--a hero!!"

The three felt bad for this life like of a troll...goat. "Okay...so it will take more than brawn. Well, well, let's see what you can do." He said, taking breathes on 'well'.

"This trial is tough, got what it takes?" He asked. Applebloom nodded and he took her to a trial. "Okay, this is simple. See these barrels? Their are 20 barrels, high and low. You got 30 seconds to beat all these barrels. Think you can do it kid?" He asked.

"Of course!! This'll be to easy!!" said Applebloom, now bringing out her Keyblade at will.

Ready? GO!!

She took off to the barrels at the ground. She swung, but it didn't break like she thought it would. She gave a combo, resulting in the four barrels being broken. She jumped to the next step, and finished those barrels. She went to the right and ended 18 barrels, but somehow, when she finished the 18th barrel, it flew, hitting both the 19th and 20th barrel. "Not bad for a rookie, kid. Think you got the next challenge?" the goat asked.

The next stage was a staircase of barrels. "You got a minute, runt!!" He said. Applebloom took off to the left and smashed the barrels. She went through the staircase, breaking every single last barrel. "Got 'em all!!" Applebloom yelled.

"You destroyed 20 barrels, theirs 25!!" He yelled. Applebloom looked down to see five trails of barrels. She had 20 seconds left, and she hurried to destroy them all. She tripped off the platform, resulting in breaking not only a barrel, but her dignity and bones. The fillies cringed at the noise, but Applebloom shrugged off her broken nose. She defeated the test, and when they came to congratulate, her nose was bleeding. "I warned ya kid." He said, shrugging his shoulders.

"Ah'm fine, just...it's just a broken nose. No harm done." She said.

"You ain't half bad kid." He said.

"Looks like I'm headed for the games." She said with a smirk.

"Afriad not." He said, his tone not changing into sadness. The fillies were shocked, at what he said. After all this, he says no?! "Why not?!" Scoot asked.

"Two words: You guys ain't heroes." He said.

"OH COME ON!!" yelled Sweetie Belle, her hoofs flailing in the air.

"You wanna become heroes? Start by mastering this spell." He said.

You have mastered the spell Thunder.

Learned magic spell Thunder.

"Now can I-"

"You don't get it, do you? You ain't have a pass! Get out!!" The three were forced to leave, and as they left...

"Eh...rather a stubborn ol' goat, wouldn't you say?" asked a strange blue man. He wore a black robe, his flames were blue, and he was human.

"Who are you?" Scoot asked defensively.

"Woah, hold on, fuzz kid. Wait, let me guess, you want to enter the games right?" He asked. He kneeled and grasp Applebloom's shoulder. "Well...get a load of this."

He flamed up a rusty ticket, but she knew it immediately. "A pass?" She asked with a smile.

"All yours. Good luck, rooting for you, little shorty." He said the last part to himself.

Obtained Entry Pass.

They ran inside with a smile. "Mr. Goat!! Look!!" Applebloom held in her mouth."

"I thought I told you to--what?! How did you...well...since ya got one, I guess we can start the preliminaries. Ready for the preliminaries?" the goat asked.

The three cheered as their answer, and was taken to the Coliseum.

You back away from your chair, and you get up to leave your station. "Gotta go, boss! See ya tomorrow!" You say as you grab your coat. You leave work with a smile, hopefully that painful jerk of a worker gets what he deserved.

....You left your car keys in your station.....

...Fudge.

Wonderland part 1

This week was just...what's the word I'm looking for? Oh yeah! Awful. How? Well, let's recap: You got into a bet with a friend three five weeks ago. He/She's becoming obsessed, and he/she coming to your house everyday now. But hey! At least you know you won.

You were at home, eating your favorite cereal, when your friend decides to flip your bowl and sit next to you. "Don't eat your cereal, man/girl! You gotta eat these!" She shoves this food in your hand.

Raisins.

"No..." You say angrily. Your friend see's your expression and starts to question it. "What's wrong with you?" He/She asked.

You sigh as you say, "Look, we know who won. So can you please leave me alone?" Your friend stares at you like you stepped into the fiery pits of Minecraft, then came back out without a scratch. He/She smiles and finally replies with, "NOPE!!"

You sigh as you turn on the TV.

Here we go...

The girls came out bruised, burned and frozen, and hard to breathe. The goat looked at them hard. "You had quite a lot of trouble for a pipsqueak." He said.

"Yeah...yeah. I think I'm gonna go now." Sweetie Belle breath through her sentence. The girls followed her to the ship and Scoot said, "Girls...maybe we need to start somewhere else."

"Where else to?" Sweetie Belle asked. Applebloom put a hoof on her chin and smiled. "Where else to? Let's try...this one!"

The two looked at the next planet, and they smiled as well. "Let's go!!" they all yelled as the spaceship turned and flew towards the destined planet. When they finally made it, they parked their spaceships and looked around the tree's. "So, what now?" Scoot asked.

"Ah don't know. Never actually seen this one." Applebloom said.

"Oh! I'm late! Very, very late! I'm here, and I should be there! I'm late! I'm late! I'm late!" They heard. A bunny, very very scared, ran side to side, and reached the hole.

"W-wait! Mr.Bunny!" Applebloom called out. They followed him into the hole, falling in as things got downside-up. The girls screamed, but after a few seconds or so, they realized their falling at a slow pace. "I...I don't get it. Shouldn't we be, you know, falling to our doom?" Sweetie Belle asked.

Scoot was laying back as she fell. "Nah, this place is topsie-turvey! Up is down, left is right, fish are mammals, and mammals are fish. So if were falling, then were pretty much just gliding." She said, calm as usual.

"How do you know this?" Applebloom asked.

"I dream about this place a lot, but not enough to get a full grasp on it." She said, her smirk now appearing. She finally hit the floor with a thud and had a huge headache, while others landed on their hooves. "Oh dear, I need to be lead! Or she will surely have my head! I'm late!!" the bunny ran past them once again, into the doors.

"Mr. Bunny! Wait up!" Sweetie Belle called out. They ran to him, but to see the door. They opened it to find a second door, then a third door, then the fourth. "Hah...movie reference." Scoot randomly said.

They entered to find everything flat. The cough was seen flat on the ground, as well as the table, and pretty much everything else. Everything was flat. They saw the bunny run into another door, but it was so small. "How'd he get so small?" Applebloom asked.

"No, your simple to big." the door knob said. The three were shocked to hear it talk. "It talks!" Sweetie Belle said shocked.

The door knob yawned, it's tiredness getting the best of him. "Must you be so loud? You woke me up." It complained.

"Good mornin'!" Scoot said with a smile.

"Good night. I need a bit more sleep." the door knob said, then yawning once more.

"Wait! What do we have to do to grow small?" Applebloom asked.

"Why don't you try the bottle, over there?" A table formed from the ground, a blue and orange bottle appearing on top of it.

"How did we miss that?" Scoot asked. The others shrugged and went toward the table, picking the blue bottle that says Drink Me. They did, and they shrunk in size. When they did however, the Heartless came, but it seems it has new friends on it's side.

"Heartless!!" Sweetie Belle screamed in fear.

"No duh, Sherlock Hooves!" Scoot said in sarcasm. The shielded Heartless was first to show up as the Red Nocturne and Blue Rhapsody showed up in an army. Applebloom ran up and swung her Keyblade at the Armored Heartless, hitting him dead in the chest. It skidded across the floor, and ran towards Applebloom as it swung it's lazy arm. This time, she was prepared, she rolled from the attack and came from behind, raising her Blade and bringing it down on his back. She could've sworn it screamed in agony before disappearing. Applebloom smiled and she smirked. "Can't bring me down." She said.

Scoot was having a problem though, being surrounded by three armored Heartless, he couldn't fight as well as she wanted. One Heartless swung at her behind, but she was barely able to block it. Another came from the back, and she knocked it out of balanced. She couldn't helped but smile as this was her only opportunity. She charged at the Heartless, once again, knocking it's balance off, but she gave a Shield Rush to the chest and it disappeared. One came from behind and tried to attack, but she was able to perfectly block it, seriously losing it's balance. She Rushed once again, and killing it. The last one stared at Scoot, before it swiftly ran towards it. Scoot tried to rush it, but it knew her attacks. It dodged her Rush, and it tried to hit her back, only to meet two back hooves to the face. It flew towards the wall, and disappeared as Munny appeared. Scoot rested her shield and smirked. "Seems like you have a head rush!" She joked.

Sweetie Belle was doing absolutely fine though. Hitting one Nocturne and Rhapsody back to back. One Nocturne tried to hit her with fire, but she successfully counter-attacked him with an Ice Beam. One Rhapsody tried to hit her up close, but was knocked into others by her wand. "This is to easy! Ice!!" She said as an Ice Ball attacked a Nocturne. Soon, they all disappeared, and Sweetie Belle smirked. "If you want me to get fired up, then you need to chill out."

They met at the door, but he snored like a sleeping bear. "Aw man, he's asleep!" Scoot complained. They looked aroun until Sweetie pointed it out. "Theirs a hole behind the bed." She said.

They tried to get in, but the bedroom was only wide enough to get one hoof in. "No, we're to small. We need to move the bed somehow." Applebloom said.

"Then why not the bottle?" Scoot pointed to the orange bottle. Applebloom ran towards the stubby chair and climbed onto it to reach the table, she drank the orange bottle, only to grow in size and stand on top of the table. She jumped down from the table and pushed her hardest on the table. The bed became flat, and the hole was now viewable. "Great job, Applebloom! Ya did it!" She heard.

"What?!" Applebloom yelled to them as Belle's and Scoot's hearing rang. "Not so loud! Your voice is louder than it needs to be!" Scoot yelled.

Applebloom squee'd and drank the blue bottle. She shrunk in size and ran to her friends. "C'mon!" Sweetie Belle said! They ran into the hole, to see a green, bushy shaped heart, that showed cards. Walking, breathing, ugly looking cards. They stood in formation, then stood aside to represent discipline. It showed a female human girl, Alice, onto the stand. The bunny was found running on the stairs and into his destination. Tired, he proceeded anyway. He blew his trumpet and yelled, "The court is now in session!!"

"I'm on trial?! But why!?" Alice asked in shock.

"Her Majesty, Queen of Hearts, presiding!" the bunny yelled.

"Queen of Hearts?" Applebloom asked.

"Queen of Hearts...Queen of Hearts...oh!! That's why it looked so familiar!!" said Scoot, now standing in front of Belle and Bloom. "We're in Wonderland!!"

"Wonderland?" Applebloom asked.

"Oh! No wonder it looked so familiar!! Everything you expect is the complete opposite!" Sweetie Belle said, full of triumph.

"Look!" Applebloom pointed at the Queen. She opened her eyes full of anger and spoke. "This girl's the culprit. No doubt about it." The Queen said, almost standing from her throne. "And the reason is...because I say so, that's why!!"

"That is so unfair!" Both Applebloom and Alice said in union, not loud enough to hear each other. She stabbed her stand with her stick as she says, "Well, have you say anything in your defense?"

"Of course! I've done absolutely nothing wrong!" Alice said, full of confidence. The Queen didn't believe lickety-split from this woman, and she, of course, got frustrated. "You may be Queen, but I'm afraid that doesn't give you the right to be so...so mean!" Alice continued.

"SILENCE!!" The Queen shouted with anger, making Alice's hair flow like a direct hit from a fan. "You dare defy ME?!"

Her yell was loud enough to even make our heroes ears ring. Applebloom cringed from the sound, but her friends stood tall. "Guys...I think we need to help her out." Applebloom said, now picking through her ears.

"Yeah, but the..." Sweetie had no evidence that they couldn't help Alice with her problem. Scoot, however, did. "We're Outsiders, so wouldn't that be muddling?" Scoot asked.

"MEDDLING!!" Sweetie, the Grammar Nazi said. Scoot giggled in response and continued. "Oh yeah, and that would be against the rules!"

"The court finds the defendant...guilty as charged!" the Queen yelled, Alice now scared of her punishment. "For the crimes of assault and attempted theft of my heart, OOOOFFF WITH HER HEAD!!"

The group of solitaire surrounded Alice and the she pleaded for her head not to be chopped off, but that wasn't the case. Applebloom saw this, and she ran ahead. "Applebloom, wait!" Sweetie called out as she ran with Scoot.

"Hold it right their!!" Applebloom yelled, passing by the cards. The Queen was not only angry, but now confused. "Who are you? How dare you interfere with my court!" the Queen shouted.

"Excuse me, but we know who the real culprit is." Applebloom explained.

"Uh-huh! It's the Heartle--HMPH!!" Sweetie covered the blabber mouth quicker than Rainbow Dash can see. Applebloom sighed and continued. "Anyway, she's not the one your looking for."

"That's nonsense." The Queen said with a large smirk across her face. "Have you any proof, rats?"

The three were quiet as a stone, and within seconds, Alice was behind bars. "Bring me evidence of Alice's innocence. Fail, and it's off with all your heads!!" The Queen shouted, now making the three girls flail as well. "Bring me as much or as little evidence as you please. Report back here when your ready."

The girls sighed, and Scoot was the first one to speak. "Theirs no way that we could save her! Unless we prove that Heartless are real, then she's a goner!" Scoot said.

"Yeah! And telling her that is breaking the rules!" Sweetie chimmed in.

"But we gotta do something!" Applebloom said.

"Or do nothing, it's better than something." They heard. They looked around, as when the Queen turned to talk to the bunny, a cat appeared on her behind. "What if these...Heartless were hidden around somewhere. I'm sure theirs proof there." The Cat said.

"How do you know?" Applebloom asked with questioning, but the cat simply rolled over on his back and turned his head 360, face up. "I know nothing at all! A trick question, is an easy answer, am I wrong?" He asked.

The girls were simply confused, but the Queen looked back at them. "Why are you still here? BRING ME EVIDENCE!!" She yelled, forcing the girls back a little.

"But, your Highness, their was a cat, right behind you!" Applebloom said.

"A cat? Where?" The Queen turned around, now the cat as her hat. Alice motioned the girls over and they did so. "I would very much say thank you, but don't listen to that rusty cat. He plays mean ol' tricks." Alice informed.

The girls nodded and Scoot spoke up. "Let's go find some evidence!" She said. The girls cheered and ran through the maze garden, hoping to find some evidence.

"They will soon find out what I mean, closer than they expect." the Cat said, now disappearing into thin air.

Here we go...

The credits came on and you were tired. You closed your eyes and slept. Slept like nobody has before. Your friend left during mid way, and you were glad. You got comfortable and slept.

And Stanley was happy.

Wait a minute...who's Stanley? And why is the narrator getting off track?

I'm sure ~~Stanley~~ You will be just fine.

You...are...okay.

Author's Note

I felt like putting a video game reference at the end. Not sure why, but I did. Can you guess, it's actually really easy to answer. But other than that, see ya next time!

Wonderland Part 2

The bet is won, you celebrate now that your friend leaves you alone, and you got 20--no...50 bucks out of him/her. AWESOME!! You crash on your couch and turn on your TV. "Gonna celebrate by watching the new episode of KH." You say. You turn to the channel and eat your cereal/popcorn. Summer's out, no more work, and EVERYTHING IS BACK TO NORMAL!!

Well...sort of.

The Crusaders walked through the forest, all grasses bigger than them. "I feel like ants." Scoot said, her mood not changing from her curiosity. Applebloom smiled and nodded. "Ah guess, since we're taller than grass, the grass is taller than us." She said, still looking up.

"Hehehehehe!!"

The Crusaders took a full stop from the sudden noise. The two were scared, but Applebloom was curious, disturbed even. "I know that voice...that sounds like--!!"

"Hello!!" A pink floating pony head appeared upside down in front of the Crusaders. The two screamed, but Applebloom held her ground. The pink pony screamed as well, only to laugh at the end. "Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie, Nice to meet you!" She said.

This blew Applebloom's mind. She wasn't on a rant. She didn't endlessly continued on about parties, how she loves everyone she meets, but instead, she greeted.

This disturbed Applebloom even more.

"Ah'm Applebloom. These are my friends, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo." Applebloom pointed to each name she called out. Pinkie giggled, and her body and hair appeared with her as she rested on a mushroom. "Mmm...pop!" Pinkie randomly said, her smiling never leaving.

She rolled upside down, her poofy hair looking like a hook. "So, what brings you here to my domain!" Pinkie joked, before laughing. Scoot was confused on how the pink pony acted, but what cursed her the most was Applebloom, how she can calmly take the randomly blows from the pony. "Poor Alice, soon to have her head cut off, when she hasn't done a single thing! Meany Princess Pants is so mean!" She said with a cute frown.

"Hey! If you know the culprit, tell us!" Sweetie Belle said, pointing a threating hoof at Pinkie. She only smiled, waved, and giggled. "The Cheshire Cat knows the answers, but...doesn't always tell. The answer, the culprit, and the cat all lie in the Darkness beyond."

Before Pinkie could continue, her head stood straight up, before smiling. Her body disappeared, and the Crusaders were shocked. "W-wait!! Pinkie!" Applebloom called out.

The giggle and the pig snort was still heard, leaving the Crusaders bewildered. "Whoops! They've already left the forest, but I Pinkie Promised not to tell. But, I can help you find the four evidence you need to save Alice! The three are super duper easy to find, but I hid the fourth one! It's gonna be really hard to find! I promise you that if you find all four, you'll get a BIG reward!!" Pinkie's voice echoed into the air.

After the voice stopped echoing, silence was heard, and Scoot turned to the two. "Should we...should we trust her?" Scoot asked, her voice sounding cracked and suspicious.

"Trust, or not to trust, I trust you decide, my little ponies."

Another voice echoed, but this voice sounded sinister, and it sounded hurtful. "Who was that?!" Scoot asked. Sweetie sighed and held her staff upright with her magic. "We won't figure it out if we stand here all day. Let's go find those evidence, Applebloom!" Sweetie Belle said with confidence.

Applebloom nodded. They ran into the forest, but not long before a giant worm was found. Smoke filled the small area of, and the worm was smoking a pipe. The small fillies coughed, desperate for air, before willing to hold their breaths. "U-um...Mr. Worm?" Applebloom said, covering her nose with a hoof, making a blocked sound. "Would you kindly stop smoking?"

The worm raised a brow, holding his fancy pipe in his hand before taking it in again. When he did, he popped it out of his mouth, and faced the fillies. "Whoooo....are....youuuu?" He stretched and exhaled smoke towards the kids. Small shapes appeared: A question mark, an R, and a U.

It slowly hit the fillies, making the choke to death from their small lungs. The girls ran outside the area, but still close enough to talk face to face. "Mr. Worm! Is their evidence in there? Did a cat come by around?" Sweetie Belle asked. The Worm looked at them fiercely, before replying. "I will not answer the question, until you do. WHO...ARE...YOU?" He rhymed.

The smoke was bigger, the same shapes from before, and they hit the poor fillies. They choked once again, before looking back at him. "U-um...Ah'm Applebloom. That's Sweetie Belle and Scoots!" Applebloom said, but Scoot got angry.

"Look! Alice is in trouble--!!"

"Alice? The girl? That little brat made me wanna hurl. Why, the Princess was even mad at the time. Alice did an awful thing: ruining my sleep. Now THAT'S a crime."

The Worm went back into resting, interrupting Scoot's little tantrum. Sweetie Belle tapped both the fillies on the shoulder, before pointing. "Look! A pink box! Maybe that's evidence?" She asked, pointing at an almost-covered-in-smoke pink box.

"Your not getting in here unless you take out the Darkness." A voice said. Pinkie, laying beside the worm, rested with two hooves out. "Maybe if you try taking out the them first in this area, you'll probably get this one." She said, not even smiling. She had a serious tone in her voice, as if she's been through this already.

"How do you know?" Applebloom asked, her curiosity getting the better of her. "I promised to help you out, remember? I just can't tell you where they are, silly!" Pinkie smiled, before waving her hoof in the smoke.

The smoke went white to temporary black in an instant. Only Applebloom saw it, but she sighed. "Come on girls, let's go--" Not even half way through her sentences, she was suddenly slashed across the face of a Shadow. She skidded across, and the fillies gasped. The shadow was tall, had armor, and it danced around like it won. "Soldiers!!" Sweetie Belle said.

Sweetie Belle raised her staff, and swung it hard below her. The Soldier was hit hard, smashing onto the floor. "THUNDER!!" she yelled. The Soldiers disappeared, but the Worm was in pain, angry. "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING, YOUNG FILLY?! ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?!" He yelled in fury.

His voice boomed in the small grass area, and the fillies ears ringed. The white smoke suddenly turned black, and the Worms eyes were yellow. "You think your so clever, Applebloom. But I'll show you, that you just entered the WRONG ROOM..."

Soldiers appeared from the ground, all clanking and slashing in the air. The three prepared for a fight.

The fight for their friends lives...

You yawn. You guess it was okay. Short, but okay. You rest, and look at the calendar.

July 23...

Crap.

Author's Note

Welcome back! Chapter's crappy, I know, but I'm off my game a little. More like snooping and reading that actually doing something. I'll get back on my feet, I promise...sorta. Just give me a minute!

I'll see you guys next time!!
