Yogscast in Equestria

"Yes, everything's going to be just fine!" the onscreen Twilight said, flying into the camera and ending the episode.

Lewis stayed silent for several seconds, contemplating the ending.

"So, she just crashed into the lens," Simon said, then started laughing, "Ha ha ho, ho ho oh my god, good show, good show, good episode, *nom*" the fat brit ate the last of his packet of Jaffa Cakes, completing his goal of consuming three whole packs before the credits finished.

"..." Lewis's eyes squinted as he looked at the screen of the TV, it was now black, the episode was done.

The episode was done...

"So that's bloody IT!?" he demanded an answer, "What the hell?" he removed his glasses and pinched the bridge of his nose in anger.

"What's wrong mate?" Simon asked, getting up from the couch and starting towards the door.

"This fucking show... it's so good, I just can't bring myself to not like it, I guess the ending leaves a lot of room for more content, whatever, the finale..." the skinny CEO stood up from the couch as well, the two had work to do and if the others had to wait much longer, they would be more royally pissed off than the Queen if she had been given piss instead of tea.

"It impregnated the minds of the producers, and we'll have a little babby called Season 4 in nine months," the larger of the two men said, laughing as he entered his office to join the server.

"I... just... fuck, Celestia's voice was really nice though," Lewis tried to find something good from his perspective, but even while alone, he couldn't.

A sudden draft made him aware than he was wearing only a t-shirt and his boxers, he had slept in at the office building since he had been up until two that morning arranging things for the special video today.

Luckily the walk to his office didn't include coming face-to-face with anyone else, so that was good.

A few minutes later, he was sitting at his desk, logged in to the chatting program, and joining the Minecraft server.

"Finally big boss man mothertrucker joins, jesus," Sips complained, looking around at the massive area that had been built for this special.

"Um, Lewis, why do I have the fucking Necronomicon in my inventory?" Duncan asked, his character holding the black-bound book in its blocky hand.

"Dammit Dunc, I was going to tell you all to look in your inventories when the time came, oh well we'll just cut that bit out." Xephos punched LividCoffee until the scientist put the book away.

"Right, Lewis, what is this?" Simon asked, trying (and failing) to not look in his inventory.

"Okay, so, this is a massive thing, its definitely going to be cut into a lot of parts, but here's the gist of it, today we're going to be split into teams, and its like a huge, super modded, super huge, Skyblock Battle match, featuring a shit-ton of us." the collective response, being made up of more than a dozen voices, was nearly deafening.

"So, who's the teams?" Zoey asked, her character standing in the middle of four mushrooms.

"Well..." Lewis began explaining the rules and teams.

He would be with Simon, as usual, along with Duncan, Rythian, Zoey, Sips, and Sjin, making a team of seven.

-A few hours later-

"Alright Rythian, you can't run forever, I know wizards are squishy!" Strippin shouted at the magic expert, granted he himself was the last of Team Strip-Area, and the last of any other team besides Rythian and Xephos on Team Blue-Xephos.

"Oh shit, c'mon, where's that item?" Rythian was running away, almost all of his magical items had broken by this point, all that was left was that potion.

Unfortunately, the two seconds needed to drink it was enough time for Strippin to kill him.

"YEEEEAAH! WE WIN!" the strongman cheered, his character jumping up and down and swinging his sword around.

"There's still Lewis, though." was the last thing Rythian said before he moved to the other call, leaving the two last fighters alone together.

Strippin searched around for a few minutes, trying to find the maroon-clad character, his Diamond Knuckles was on the verge of breaking, but he still had one good shot left.

"Oh The Enterprise," Lewis sang in the tune of 'Britannia rules the waves'

"What the hell mate? Where are you?" Strippin looked up, down, and all around, but Xephos was nowhere in sight.

"The Enterprise ru~ules SPAAAAAAAAAACE!" and then Strippin was annihilated by the U.S.S Enterprise's cannons, manned by Lewis.

It was over, and Lewis won it for his team.

--

"Lewis, that was amazing!" Simon congratulated.

"That was very goo... go... g... not bad," Ridge stuttered, he was bad at saying things intelligent when around the others.

Several more lines of praise came from the others.

"Awwww, that's nice you guys, well everyone, I win, my team wins, so this has been the Yogscast, and we'll see you all: next time, on Minecraf-" Lewis' voice cut off suddenly, shortly followed by a clatter, then nothing.

His character jerked a little, like a key had been tapped, but nothing else.

"Lewis?" Hannah asked, immediately concerned.

No response.

"Um, hello?"

Lewis has left the game. came the message in the chat, but that wasn't right...

Simon has left the game.

Duncan has left the game.

Joakim has left the game.

Zoey has left the game.

Chris has left the game.

Paul has left the game.

"What just happened? Why did it say their IRL names?" Martyn was confused, but there was no response except for a brief cacophony of clattering sounds.

"Hold on, someone check their offices," Nilesy was concerned, this development was too weird.

"I'll do it," Hannah accepted, leaving her setup.

Already out of her room and rushing down the hall, the blond woman burst into Lewis' office.

"LEWIS!" she shouted, expecting to find at least her boyfriend's unconscious, if not him in a coma, or... *gulp* dead.

But there was nothing, only his headset, which had fallen on his keyboard, she figured that that was what had caused the clattering sound.

No Lewis, alive or dead. His chair was still pulled up to the desk like he was sitting in it, and for some reason, something odd was on his desk.

It looked like a glass of chocolate milk, she picked it up because it was too odd.

Lewis was lactose intolerant, why was this here?

And furthermore, this wasn't a glass of chocolate milk, the 'glass' was actually a thin layer of ice that was melting in her hands, and the 'milk' was actually a solid chunk of chocolate with a little ring poking out of it.

"What the bloody hell is this thing?" she pulled out the pin, then heard a quiet *clink*

Immediately she threw it out of the open window, watching the brown lump fly away from the building and explode several meters away.

The reality of the act hit her, "Who rigs a glass of chocolate milk to fucking explode?" this day was absolutely weird.

Unfortunately for those missing, the day was only just starting to get weird.

-Meanwhile, across the vast expanses of space-

Celestia had just raised the Sun for the Day, it looked like it would be a good day, Discord would be off visiting Fluttershy, which meant he wouldn't be here, bugging her with pranks and pleas.

Suddenly, she clenched her eyes shut, feeling a sharp fluxuation of magic.

Twilight appeared in a flash of violet light, she had teleported from all the way in Ponyville for this visit, a powerful maneuver.

"Hello Princess, I'm here for that visit," the lavender alicorn greeted with a smile.

"Oh Twilight, you don't have to call me Princess anymore, I thought I told you that," the solar diarch corrected, chuckling as she gave her former student a nuzzle.

"So, what did you want to talk about?" Twilight asked, eager to start catching up with all of the rapid-fire events that had been going on over the past week since she had been made a Princess.

"Well, my faithful student turned proud graduate, I think it's time that you took up your proper responsibility as the Princess of Friendship and Magic, while the former is a simpler duty, the latter is much more complex and of unbelievable power," Celestia's tone had turned grave and serious, she summoned up a teleportation spell, summoning a new pony to the room.

The pony had a coat that shone like gold and a mane made of energy, runes, and stars, her cutie mark resembled Twilight's, but looked more like a gemstone than a simple printing.

Her most striking features, however, were her smallish wings and well-cared-for horn.

"Hello, Princess Twilight." the new alicorn greeted, bowing to the lavender Princess.

"Um, who are you?"

"I am Arcana, the goddess of Magic itself, and the time has come for me to step down and allow a new ruler to reign over the Nexus," Arcana explained, flaring up her white magic.

"Wait, so I'm going to literally be the Princess of actual Magic itself? I... I don't know if I can handle this," the stripe-maned mare was intimidated by this prospect.

"Trust me, Twilight, there is no pony, not even myself, who is more capable and qualified than you, for this responsibility," Celestia assured, nodding to Arcana.

The gold-coated alicorn nodded back, summoning up all of her power, which was all of magic itself. Her body faded away and in its place floated a magnificent shape.

"Whoa," the lavender alicorn looked at the shape, getting lost in its lines.

"Just touch it, my proud graduate, and it will be yours," the white alicorn informed.

Right as Twilight was about to reach out to touch it, suddenly a flash of gray, brown, and rainbow erupted from the air above the shape of infinite power.

Two figures, one 5'7", the other standing at a freakish 8'0", fell to the floor, the tall one falling through the Nexus and making it disappear.

"What the buck?" Twilight and Celestia simultaneously swore, shocked by this sudden development.

Lewis and Rythian didn't notice this, they were too busy with a great and tiring task.

That task was known to some as: laying on the floor unconscious.
