Princess Luna was watching at the Canterlot lookout watching the sun go down. "This is it, let the fun commence." She opened her wings and her horn glowed. She suddenly lifts up into the sky as the moon rises with her. Soon the moon was at its full height and Luna went back down to the ground. "Nightmare Night has officially started." Luna smiled.

At the same time, Trixie's plan went into full swing. Her potion for the Nightmare Spell was already in the ground. "Now I wait for the fun to really get going." She started laughing evily.

Meanwhile, Shining Star was rushing out of Twilight's home. "Can't talk now Twily, I gotta go be the early pony!"

"Okay, have fun!" she replied.

Shining Star met up with the Cutie Mark Crusaders. Apple Bloom was dressed as a Flareon, Scootaloo was wearing a Pony Hawk outfit, and Sweetie Belle was dressed as Sleeping Beauty. Shining Star then said, "You three ready for a fun night?"

"Ready Shining Star!"

"Alright, let's go!" He ran off to Everfree with the Cutie Mark Crusaders following. Trixie snickered as the four ran off. "Who can stop me now!?"

Celestia walked over to Luna, who was laying down worried that something bad was going to happen. "Is something wrong sis?" she asked.

"Well, I am sort-of worried... I feel as though I'm going to be insanitized again, only stronger than before and much more dark."

"Don't worry, you're gonna be fine just like last year."

"I guess you're right..." Luna stood back up and looked down at Ponyville before heading into the castle. Celestia smiled. "Do not worry so much about the future. Remember what happened the last time that happened?" Luna facehoofed herself. "It was a long week when that happened..." She then looked around for any other ponies. There was no one yet but Prince Shining Armor and Pincess Cadance. "Is everything ready?" Luna asked them.

"Everything is ready for tonight," they replied.

"Okay, thanks." She managed a weak smile as she walked away.

Trixie was waiting for the moon to rise a bit more. She could see the Mane Six and the other ponies doing their normal Nightmare Night. She sighed. "Any slower and I might as well forget about this... Was their something I was forgetting this whole time, or is the moon not at the correct angle yet? It could be both..." The moon suddenly went to the correct height, but the effects started somewhere else.

Shining Star and the Cutie Mark Crusaders were still in the Everfree Forest, 2 miles from Canterlot. They heard a slight rumble and then they saw a giant fist come from the ground near Shining Star. A giant lava monster then suddenly formed in the shape of a Dragon. "LAVA DRAGON!" they yelled. The dragon roared. "I love the smell of fear in the evening," it said as it blew smoke at the CMC. They coughed for a few seconds, then ran and hid while Shining Star was frozen in fear. He then suddenly remembered the Element of Harmony he had with him. "Nothing will scare me anymore." He suddenly put his necklace on and stood with two hooves on the ground. "Henshin." He tapped it once and suddenly turned into his Caring form. "I'm ready to take you on..." The lava dragon laughed and then suddenly breathes fire at Shining Star. He quickly moved out of the way and blasted water from his horn. "Fire vs. Water. What wins?"

"Water?" Applebloom answered, scared of the lava dragon.

"On track!" Shine replied. The lava dragon exploded. Shining Star turned back to normal. "Where did that creature come from?"

"From the ground, where else?" Scootaloo replied. The four then continued their long walk to Canterlot. Snips and Snails watched in horror and then ran back to Trixie.

"Princess Luna, a lava dragon just exploded from an intense wave of Harmony," Doctor Hooves said to Luna. "Was it Shining Star on his way here with the Crusaders?" she asked.

"Most likely."

"If he keeps this up he'll be burnt trying to save those fillies' lives."

"If that is true, I'll get the nurse ready for a search party to go and heal him back up." Doctor Hooves walked off. Luna then thought for a moment. Did somepony cast the Nightmare Spell? If so, who could it be?

"Miss Trixie, the spell worked!" Snips and Snails said in unison.

"Then why didn't it start here? Oh of course! It starts from one Element of Harmony! Now, the creatures will start coming here. When they do, every single pony in Ponyville will be SCARED."

"But, it failed to defeat Shining Star!"

"Then let's put its skills to the test. It is far from over." Lightning suddenly exploded in the sky. She was right.

It was only the beginning.
