The history of the big battle
Youtube Video
(The narration below)
Far off in the distant reaches of the dimensional universe, is the magical world of Unicornicopia, home to a race of genetically altered humanoid-shaped ponies known as the Space Alicorns. All were under the watchful eye of their leader-- The Tri Horned Alicorn, who unlike most unicorns had three horns instead of one. All of which were gold colored, but even he himself did not know the reasons of this astonishing phenomenon that was he.
Still, he kept a very watchful eye over his subjects.
Some of the alicorns lived in peace while others would train to become powerful warriors and join their Grand Ruler in his never-ending struggle against the forces of evil-- To become members of * “Starfleet Magic*!”
Trained well, and skilled with powerful weapons and magic-- Thanks to Starfleet and its warriors, the worlds had been protected from many evil forces…
However, there was one evil force that seemed almost too powerful for even Starfleet to handle-- A powerful hooded sorcerer who sought to destroy all that was good and decent, and rule the Dimensional Universe with hatred and chaos beyond imagination.
The sorcerer eventually attacked Unicornicopia. Starfleet tried to stave him off but proved to be nearly no match against such terrifying magic.
Fearing for the safety of his people and the Dimensional Universe, The Grand Ruler fought against the sorcerer and with the power of his golden horns, unleashed the mysterious magic of the uniforce and was able to render the sorcerer weak, but was not strong enough to effectively destroy him. So using the last of his available strength, The Grand Ruler sealed the sorcerer away on a distant dark planet, so that he might never again recover his power and threaten the worlds with his evil.
For one-thousand years, the threat was long forgotten and only remained in the memories of the past, but The Grand Ruler struggle against evil continued and Starfleet always would remain on guard for any new or recurring threats to ever rise
…
This story was passed down for a long, and was now long ago history, depicted in drawings on a large tapestry, and others like it.
Lightning Dawn was a white alicorn with a short brown mane and a golden horn, but as he was genetically altered, more than eighty percent of his body was human-shaped. He stood up straight, and had shoulders, arms, elbows, hands, knees, feet, toes. He wore a white armor vest with a code “AO0C” printed on it just below the planet’s insignia. He also wore a pair of white pants and black boots, and small white gloves on each hand.
He was just standing in his room of the royal palace, gazing up at the tapestry that told the story of the Grand Ruler's battle with the sorcerer, a-thousand years ago. It was one of his most favorite stories to hear and tell himself over and over as it really fascinated him.
Just then, his best friend and companion-- a small fairy with long blonde hair, and wearing a pink skirt. “Lightning...?" she said to him. "Are you still staring at that tapestry?"
"I can't help it, Krysta ." said Lightning "Besides, it helps keep me calm. Remember, today's the day we start our new lives on the surface. We've both been living up here for a very long time."
Krysta nodded and was eager to go, but she herself was still confused by many things "It's been such a long time since you started training, and you still can't do any magic."
Lightning felt the same as she did. He also wondered many times why the Grand Ruler would take him as his personal apprentice above all the others. Lightning, although an alicorn was unable to perform magic like most of his kind; he had no natural magic in his blood. He could not use telekinesis; he could not walk through walls, teleport, transfigure objects, or use telepathy… nothing!
So for many years he lived with his master in the royal palace, which floated in the skies high above the surface of Unicornicopia, and he learned and was taught how to do things without the use of magic. He was especially trained in the art of combat and was exercised immensely in physical training. Now the Grand Ruler felt that Lightning was old enough, and was sending him to live on planet’s surface below, meet new creatures; make friends and a new life for himself, but he was to continue his studies and his training. He had complete and total faith in his student and knew he would do well.
Lightning took one last look at his bedroom in the palace, knowing he wouldn't see it again for some time. “Well… I guess we better get going.”
Krysta nodded and they both flew off together, ready to start their new lives.

(Opening Intro would be something like this)
My Brave Pony: Starfleet Magic Season 1 (The Original)
There were many different countries, cities, and other places on the planet of Unicornicopia; and the world’s populace consisted entirely of alicorns, genetically altered giving them human-like bodies; Space Alicorns. Each and every one of them had their own specific ID-Code printed on their clothing near the insignia like Lightning had, like having a citizen number.
The alicorns themselves usually went on with their daily normal lives-- Children went to school, and played with friends, while the adults had jobs and things to do.
The planet itself was also a tightly control police state, but a benevolent one. The streets were always kept clean, and petty or harsh crimes would not be tolerated and subject to small sentences-- a week of community service, or a night in small prisons, things like that.
(They don't throw anyone in concentration camps, so back off! And I think that being put in a cage and humiliated in public for an hour is acceptable for bullying)
Still, it wasn't a bad place to live at all.
Lightning was settling into his new house in White Village-- a quiet, soft suburban area, with white houses and simple roofs, but just because it was called White Village did not at all mean that only white ponies lived there . The ponies came in many different colors and were permitted to live wherever they chose.
Lightning just finished unpacking his things, with Krysta’s help. Even though Krysta was small, about nine inches tall, it was known that she was able to lift up to three-thousand times her own weight. Since she weighed 4 whole ounces, she was able to lift upwards of 750 pounds!
Lighting’s house was built on the Grand Ruler’s orders to have a special, smaller house built for Krysta, like a mouse-hole near Lightning’s bed. Just perfect for one her size of seven inches tall.
“Well, that’s all of it.” Lightning said, but as tired as he felt, this was no time for them to rest, as he remembered his instructions from the Grand Ruler before they left the palace…
“The time has come for you to socialize with others who are more like you. Once you settle into your new home, I want you to venture out and meet some of the populace. They have all been notified of your arrival and are anxious to meet you. It will help you get off a fine beginning. Good luck my student.”
So, Lightning and Krysta were off. Krysta couldn’t fly as fast as Lightning so she simply sat on his head and held onto his golden horn.
Soon, they arrived at their destination. The central town at the very center of the kingdom was Rainbow City Central, the biggest and busiest city in the entire dimension. Tall buildings, and business places were all around, and many, many unicorns were all going about their business, going to work, walking their children to school.
Krysta and Lightning couldn’t stop admiring the view, but they didn’t know where to stop first to talk to anyone or what to do for that matter. As they walked through a quiet area of the city, where there wasn’t as much noise, they suddenly spotted a large garden with all kinds of plants, vegetables, and beautiful flowers. “Wow!” exclaimed Lightning as he gazed at the lovely flowers. “Double wow!” added Krysta as she fluttered around sniffing the many sensational smells. “Mmm…! Smells like… like…” But then her little nose began to twitch, “Ah… Ah…!”
“Krysta…?” cried Lightning “Krysta, No!” but Krysta had already sneezed “AH-CHOO…!” and even though she was just a little fairy, that single sneeze caused the flower she sniffed to keel over and lose all its petals. “Oh! Oh my!” cried Krysta.
That’s when a red alicorn came dashing over. “Oh, no…! Not again?” he groaned as he gently began to scoop the fallen flower into a pot. Krysta apologized but the red unicorn said it wasn’t her fault. “They're called Keelilies, they have a tendancey to keel over whenever anyone sneezes near them. Not to worry, I can fix it. There’s no finer gardener than me on this planet.”
Lightning was amazed. “You mean, you grew all this?” he asked.
The other alicorn nodded. “My name’s Buddy Rose . Code-Number: FT5H. I’m the caretaker of the community garden. I can handle any flower, tree, weed-- anything that grows.” and sure enough, in no time at all, the flower Krysta had ruined was standing upright again, and Buddy didn’t seem to use any form of magic but rather ordinary gardening. “Huh!” remarked Lightning. “That’s amazing. Oh, by the way… I’m…”
“Lightning Dawn…? I know.” said Buddy. “His majesty, the Grand Ruler, told everyone to expect you.”
“He did?” Lightning asked, and Buddy Rose explained that his majesty wanted to ensure Lightning's first day be a pleasant one. So he notified others to expect him, but not to treat him strangely. "We were all strangers ourselves once, and we know what it feels like to come to someplace new."
Suddenly, Buddy remembered an errand he had quite forgotten to do, but he still had far too many planets to look after desperately. “Oh I’m sorry to impose, but could you do me a really big favor?”
"Um... sure... I guess." said Lightning, and he was given a medium-sized crate of vegetables.
“Could you take these to the Rainbow Dish Inn, when you go through town, please?”
"Uh... sure... I'll do that."
Buddy smiled “Thank you so much, and it was nice meeting you." then he went off to tend to his other plants.
“Well… that went well.” joked Krysta.
…
Lightning had to carry that crate all over and got a lost a few times. “I should’ve asked for directions first.” he groaned. “Why don’t you sit and rest?” Krysta suggested. “Good idea!” Lightning panted and slumped down on a bench by a fountain, almost dropping the basket. “Oh! My arms are so tired..!” It was times like this Lightning hated the fact he couldn’t do magic as it meant he couldn’t simply levitate the basket to carry it more easily, but then again that would be an insult to why he had arms and hands at all.
Suddenly, he heard someone say, “Excuse me…?” The voice belonged to an orange alicorn, wearing a red artist’s hat, just up ahead who was painting on a canvas. “…you kind of walked into the way of the scenery.”
“Ugh!” groaned Lightning, but then the other pony caught the sight of Krysta. “Is that a…fairy…?” His eyes lit up like the sun. “Hold still, please!” he said with excitement. Krysta felt confused, but did as she was told, and in almost no time the artist showed her and Lightning his painting. “I shall call it Fairy in the Park.”
Krysta thought it was incredible. It looked so real almost as if she was staring into a mirror. Lightning thought the same thing. “Who are you anyway?” he then asked.
The alicorn introduced himself as Artie Bristles . Code-number: HV7J. He was a fine artist who loved to paint, draw, and sculpt; some even said he could turn anything at all into a work of art, even garbage. “You should come to my art gallery sometime, both of you.”
Krysta’s eyes lit up, “We’d love to.” She said.
“Yes… but we have an errand to.” Lightning quickly said as he scooped Krysta in his right wing. “Let’s go, Krysta!” and he ran off with the basket of vegetables, much to Artie’s confusion, but he couldn’t wait to tell all his viewers that he had just seen and painted a real-live fairy.
Krysta thought that was rude of Lightning. But Lightning thought Artie was a little too eccentric, especially how the way he acted as if he had never seen a fairy before, but that was pretty much the case as Krysta was the only fairy on the entire planet, but that wasn’t important now.
As they turned round the next corner…CRASH!! The vegetables were everywhere. Lightning felt the whole world spinning. “What hit me?” he groaned.
He got up and saw a yellow alicorn that didn’t see them as he turned the corner and ran right into them. He apologized to Lightning and Krysta… in rhyme.
“I’m very sorry to have run into you.
That was a very silly thing to do.”
Lightning apologized too, as he should have watched where he was going. He then offered to help them both pick up the vegetables and put them back in the basket.
“I’ll help you as part of my task.”
Say! Are you Lightning Dawn, may I ask?”
“Uh… yes… I am….” answered Lightning “And this is my friend Krysta.”
“My name is XL7Z.
But if you wish, you may call me Rhymey .
I’m very pleased to meet you two,
I love when I meet someone new.”
Lightning and Krysta could hardly believe the way he was talking so perfectly in rhyme.
“Um… do you always talk that way,
and rhyme no matter what you say?” asked Lightning, only to quickly realize he had rhymed juts liked them. “I mean… rhyme all the time?” he did it again.
Rhymey chuckled and said…
“I love to make rhymes, you see…
For I write songs and poetry.
My whole family speaks this way
It’s our passion to rhyme what we say
My café, Rhyme Time, is where I usually stay
But I had few errands to run today.”
Krysta and Lighting never knew anyone who spoke in rhyme before, but it seemed okay to them. It was just his special way of talking and there was nothing wrong with it a bit.
(So back off mockers, flamers, bronies, all of you rhyme haters)
“I hope that again we may chat.
But I’m busy right now, and I must scat.”
Then he flew off leaving a much confused but amazed Krysta and Lightning. “Wow! He’s pretty good with rhymes.” said Krysta.
“I wonder what he’ll say the next time.” added Lightning. Then he and Krysta realized they both just made a rhyme, again, and they were both felt Rhymey’s speech pattern was starting to affect them. Nevertheless, they carried on with their errand, and soon they found the place they were looking for, a restaurant with a sign with a picture of a blue alicorn wearing a chef’s outfit that read “Cookie Dough’s Rainbow Dish.”
Lightning felt so relieved and couldn’t wait to get rid of the basket of vegetables he had been holding for a while.
Since the Space Alicorns had humanlike bodies this meant they required more proper sustenance unlike normal ponies. They had to eat meats and fish, grains, fruits, vegetables, dairy, and all the rest of it to.
The restaurant was very busy. Alicorns were everywhere; some who looked as if they had already eaten were ordering seconds or just stuffing their faces with more food like an obsession. “They must’ve been really been hungry.” said Krysta. Then, as she sniffed the air, she could tell why. The smell of so many wonderful foods… “Oh! Oh my…! It smells so good.”
“Krysta, this is no time to be thinking about food.” snapped Lightning, but then his stomach growled. He had quite forgotten that he hadn’t eaten lunch what with all the moving and distractions he had been having. “On the other hand…” he said.
Just then, the big doors to the kitchen opened and several waiters and waitresses came out holding tureens and trays of delicious hot foods, fresh tossed salads, fruits and pastries, meats and then… all the customers rose out of their seats and applauded as the head chef came out. It was that same blue alicorn from the sign on the restaurant. He wore a white chef’s hat, apron, and his code-number was BP1D, yet everyone cheered “Hail Cookie Dough! Hail Cookie Dough! ”
Cookie Dough graciously reciprocated the applause and cheers from the customers. “Honored guests… Your admiration of my humble fare is most appreciated. It fills my heart with joy to fill your stomachs with delight. Eat hearty, everyone!”
The customers all cheered and continued to feast, but Lightning followed Cookie Dough into the kitchen. “Um… excuse me?” he asked. Cookie Dough turned round, “Oh! You must be the new delivery boy, just set those vegetables down over there in the corner.”
Lightning did as he was told but then said, “Actually, I’m Lightning Dawn.”
Cookie Dough turned round again in near shock. “Uh…you mean The Lightning Dawn, the Grand Ruler’s personal apprentice?”
Lightning blinked once “Yes…” and then his stomach gurgled again. Cookie Dough hated the sound of stomachs growling in hunger. “Oh my, I won’t have this, not in my restaurant.” he said and before Lightning knew it, Cookie Dough had given him and Krysta a special table right there in the kitchen and the two watched him skillfully mix, mash, slice, and chop up all the foods he would use to cook with into a perfect meal for them both. It was almost hypnotic to watch.
Lightning was served with a well grilled, juicy rare steak a lovely baked potato, with a small pile of peas and carrots on the side, and Krysta had the same kind of meal, only since she was smaller, her food was smaller.
“So, you’re a cook, obviously?” asked Krysta.
Cookie Dough shook his head and explained “To me, a cook is just isn't strong enough. I happen to be, if you will, an award wining master chef. You see, a cook feeds the stomach, while a chef nourishes the soul and educates the taste buds, but try the food, you’ll love it.”
Not wanting to be rude, Lightning and Krysta took a little nibble from their steaks, and their taste buds went crazy. It tasted so incredibly wonderful; they just had to keep eating until not a morsel was left on their plates, and by the time they were both finished they felt as if they could hardly move. It was no surprise that was what Cookie Dough was famous for. He could satisfy the appetite of anyone, even if they weren’t even hungry, customers just begged to have a single sample of his finest cooking.
Before Lightning and Krysta left, Cookie gave them an invitation he was meant to hand to them upon their arrival. It was an invitation to the town library and observatory, but exactly why or what for, it didn’t say.
So they decided to head straight over, following the directions on the invitation, but as they went they passed by the hospital and someone called out. “You there…! Hold it!”
Lightning turned and saw a white alicorn with a pink mane, wearing a doctor’s coat and a medial-cap approaching him. Her ID number was DR3F, but everyone knew her as Dr. Penny Sillon . “Are you Lightning Dawn?” she asked.
“Yes, I am…” said Lightning.
“Thought so, come with me please.” replied Dr. Penny as she dragged Lightning into the hospital, much to his protest. “Hey! What are you?”
Penny had also been told of Lightning’s arrival, but what Lightning hadn’t been told before leaving was he was to report to Penny for a physical. It was his orders that every new comer to Unicornicopa had to have one, and that’s exactly what Lightning went through. Lightning had a normal physical, all A-Okay, but Penny also wanted test out how strong and how fast he really was. So she put Lightning on a treadmill to see how fast he could run, or flutter with weights on his back to see how much he could life, but when it came to the magic-test, which was like having a blood test only different, Penny was most surprised. “What? You don’t have any magic at all?”
“That’s right, I can’t do magic.” said Lightning “Yet I’m fit as a fiddle, healthy and keen-- Can I go now?”
Penny saw no reason why he couldn’t, but she wondered something else, about Lightning’s golden horn and she began to wonder if maybe he was capable of something more.
Lightning was getting tired of running into so many new faces everywhere he went. “Couldn’t I have just met them all in one place?” he asked “I’m getting tired, and I would like some time to myself at least.”
“Ah, come on, Lightning.” Krysta reminded him, “You’re still getting know the place, and that’s what Grand Ruler said, right?”
Lightning knew she was right, and so they continued on their way through town, and finally reached the library. “This must be it.” He said as they ventured inside, only to find everything was all dark. They couldn’t’ see anything, even when Krysta used her glow to make a little light. “This is getting creepy.” she shuttered.
Lightning felt the same, and he got a sick feeling that they weren’t alone. Then, all at once, the lights went on followed by the voices of many yelling “SURPRISE…!”
Balloons and decorations were everywhere as confetti fell from the ceiling, and big banner that read, “Welcome Lightning Dawn”
The head of this party was the librarian, Inquerius . Her number was ES4G. She was a grey Alicorn, and wore half-moon spectacles. “Are you surprised, Lightning?” she asked.
Lightning was almost speechless. “I… uh… this… buh…?” before he could say anything else, all the unicorns approached him introducing themselves, and offering him some refreshments, or to join a game, or even dance. “I think I’ll just have some punch please.” cried Lightning, who really needed to cool off from all the sudden buzz and excitement.
So much had already happened to him that day he hardly ever had anytime to himself or to rest, and every time he tried to excuse himself he would bump into another unicorn and find himself unable to get away. “Krysta…! Help…!” he begged, but Krysta was a little preoccupied by her own fan-crowd of spectators who were amazed to see an actual fairy.
Then suddenly, all went dark, and the stage curtains at the back of the party lit up for the entertainment was about to begin. “And now everyone…” the announcer called, “The mystifying magic of… Abra-Kadabra …!”
POOF! A puff of purple smoke puffed and then, as if out of nowhere, appeared a purple alicorn, wearing a magician’s outfit, hat and cape, and his number was CQ2E, sewn on his tuxedo. His actual name was Abraham, but every preferred to call him by his stage name, to which he preferred as well.
“Thank you! Thank you!” he said with a kind English accent, to the cheering crowd. “And now… if I may have a volunteer to help me with my first fantastic trick, please.”
Since Lightning was the guest of honor, you can bet the crowd was urging him to go, shoving him up on stage despite his protests. “Well, Lightning Dawn-- how wonderful I am to meet you.” said Abra.
“Yeah…! Charmed…” said Lightning.
The first trick was the old magic-box. Lightning stepped in. The door was shut. Abra tapped each his hooves twice. The door opened, and Lightning was gone. “Ooh…!” went the crowd and Abra then took of his hat, and gave it a tap, and plop. “Ah…!” Lightning fell out of it and onto the stage. The crowd cheered for both Abra and Lightning.
It was a good thing that, after which, everyone was so preoccupied watching the show and the entertainment, that Lightning and Krysta could finally slip off deeper into the library to have to quiet time instead of having to talk to someone new every ten seconds.
I’m going to go book browsing. Krysta said. “Want some company?” Lightning offered. “No thanks. I’ll be okay.” replied Krysta as she flew off. Lightning had a good idea of what Krysta was looking for and he hoped that she would find it.
Lightning could only sigh, and then he turned to gaze out a window. The night has certainly come quickly, but then again he did have a very busy day so the time just flew by.
Lightning knew this was The Grand Ruler’s doing, he always brought in the most beautiful nights, but Lightning’s daydreaming was interrupted when a book fell down and landed right beside him. “Huh?”
It was an ordinary book on astronomy. “Is anyone down there…?” called a feminine voice form up a spiral flight of stairs. “Yes…?” Lightning called “Is this your book?”
“Yes! Could you bring it up please?”
Lightning flew up to the top instead of climbing the stairs, and emerged in the observatory on top of the library, which was rather only but a single room, much like an attic.
“Oh, thank you so much.” said the voice. Lightning turned round and saw the voice belonged to… the most… beautiful alicorn he had ever seen! She was white, and had a voluminous violet sparkling mane , long eyelashes which glittered when she blinked; her armor sparkled like the very stars themselves. She was looking through her telescope, up at the night sky. Lightning felt all strange and soft inside. “I, uh… I didn’t see you at the party.” Lightning said
“Oh, I didn’t feel like it. I just can’t stop looking up at the stars.” said the young mare.
“Um… what’s your name?” asked Lightning.
The unicorn looked at him and spoke softly. “My name’s Starla-- Starla Shine . ID-Code: KY1M. Who are you?”
He hesitated for a minute as he found himself lost in Starla’s eyes, “I’m Lightning Dawn. Code: AO0C.”
“Lightning…” Starla said softly.
The two of them seemed to get along well for having just met. Starla explained she loved to look at the stars because to her they were just so mystical and held many secrets, almost like they could tell you a story or give advice.
She kept all her sightings in a notebook she had with her and showed Lightning all the many constellations and outer systems she had discovered, some that even dated back to the time when The Grand Ruler fought off the evil sorcerer one-thousand years ago and sealing him away. “Lately I’ve been trying to discover more constellations or something new.” Starla said
“Well what’s out there tonight?” asked Lighting. Starla took a peek through her telescope. At first she saw nothing but the same old stars, but then. “Wait a minute… what is that?” She spotted a strange sort of light, but it defiantly wasn’t a star. It looked as if it was moving.
Lightning could soon see it with his own eyes. “Whatever it is… I think it’s coming right this way.” Suddenly, there was large tremor followed by strikes of dark lightning, with a very loud and a sinister laughing sound!
“What’s happening?” cried Lightning. “Oh!” cried Starla. They could hear the other ponies screaming down below and dashed down to see what was going on. “Lightning!” called Krysta “What’s going on…?”
“Can this be…?” cried Inquerius “Are the rumors true…?” The doors flew open letting strong winds into the place as the windows shattered. Everyone was running about in panic as a large flash of lightning and big roar of thunder rumbled. Then… there… on the stage… appeared a tall human-shaped figure dressed in dark robes, shoulder-guards, and a dark hood atop completely concealing his face within its shadows-- except his eyes, his red and evil eyes glowing in the darkness within the hood.
Lightning could barely speak as he just stood there, gawking at the evil creature as it spoke. “I… am… Titan! Lord and master of all darkness, and bringer of chaos and nightmares to the dimensional universe! Long have I waited for this day-- that I would finally escape my prison and return and finish what I had started!”
His appearance seemed familiar to Lightning, and that’s when he made the comparisons to the old stories. “You…!” snarled Lightning “You’re the one I’ve heard of from the stories. That same evil the Grand Ruler banished to the Dark Planet!”
Titan chuckle evil “Yes…! But alas, that seal could not keep me a prisoner forever. Your Grand Ruler should have finished me off when he had the chance! Now, his mistake shall be the beginning of your undoing as my first act of vengeance for being sealed away for all these centuries!” He raised his monstrous hands up high unleashing powerful bolts of energy everyone to further frighten everyone and his evil laugh echoed “This world… and all that reside here SHALL FEEL THE WRATH OF DARKNESS!!”

My Brave Pony: Starfleet Magic Season 1 (The Original)
“Previously on Starfleet Magic…”
Lightning Dawn had settled into his new home, and had quickly so many new friends along the way. During a celebration of his arrival, Titan the evil sorcerer, whom had been sealed away by the Grand Ruler for centuries, appeared to crash the party and threatens to destroy all the ponies and their world with it.
EPISODE TWO
(Part 2)
With his raging fury, Titan began to capture many ponies and imprisoned them in large bubble-like objects. Even Krysta was accidentally caught as well. “Lightning…!” she screamed.
“Krysta! No…!” cried Lightning.
“Easy pickings!” laughed Titan.
“Let her go!” Lightning demanded, but Titan only laughed and scoffed at him “You dare to command me?!” He stretched out his hand unleashing a blast of shockwaves at Lightning, which blasted him hard into the wall, and before long, the library was a complete and total mess; bookshelves were knocked down; books scattered all over the floor along with the broken glass and ruined party supplies. All the other ponies began to run in panic, much to Titan’s amusement.
Lightning was furious! “What are you going to do with those captured ponies?” he demanded to know. Titan gazed at him and his eyes glowed. “That is none of your concern!” he hissed as he raised his hand and was ready to zap Lightning!
“Hold it right there!” snapped a voice.
Titan looked towards the door, and Lightning saw some of the unicorns he had met that day. Buddy Rose, Artie, Rhymey, even Starla. All four of them were standing upright. Their armors looked shinier, and stronger, and now they had on knee, elbow, and shoulder pads, and they all wore cool visors across their eyes like masks. “In the name of Starfleet… I order you to cease and desist.” shouted Buddy Rose.
Lightning could hardly believe it. His four new friends were all members of Starfleet too, ranked as lieutenants as well, and Titan could hardly believe that Starfleet was still around after all this time, but he simply scoffed “You don’t know what you’re up against."
“You don’t know what you’re up against, Titan.” snapped Artie.
Rather than cause a real ruckus, Titan decided to test the warriors out. “If you truly wish to save your friends, I’ll give the chance… but you’ll have to find me first.” Then he vanished in a cloud of black and purple smoke, taking his prisoners with him. “KRYSTA…!” cried Lightning. Feeling overwhelmed with sadness and anger, he angrily pounded the floor with his fists in frustration.
The others felt sorry for Lightning, but now they had to head off somewhere. “I’m going with you.” Lightning said. “Lightning, No.” Buddy Rose said “This is a job for Starfleet, you should get to safety. We know how you feel about Krysta. We’ll get her back. I promise.” And before Lightning could protest, the four warriors moved on out. Starla stopped at the door and gazed back at him, almost apologetically, but then she ran off to join her teammates. Lightning angrily pounded the floor again.
The library was still in a mess, until Dr. Penny arrived with her team to help treat anyone who was hurt, and following her was an elderly green alicorn, wearing small round glasses, the code GU6I, and spoke in an English accent. “Mmm… I say!” he said “What’s happened…?”
Inquerius approached him “Can you not tell?” she asked “Did you not feel the danger?”
“Didn’t we all?” added Lightning.
The green alicorn admitted that he did calculate the tremors, “But… I wouldn’t have believed it possible that Titan has… mmm… eh… returned as it were.”
“Well that’s fine and dandy, whoever you are.” said Lightning “But it doesn’t help find where he’s gone or where he’s taken the unicorns he took, and my friend Krysta.”
The green alicorn kept his cool. “My name, good sir, is Brain; Professor Horatio I.Q Brain if you will, and as soon as I knew there was trouble I began to… eh… make my calculations, and confirm my theories, and I have come to tell you that I just may know where Titan has gone.”
Lightning’s ears twitched. “Where, where have they gone? You have to tell me!”
Brain told Lightning to calm down and come to his laboratory house in Greenland.
It soon became clear that Brain was a regular genius and scientific inventor, hence his title Professor. He was no Starfleet fighter, but he was an unofficial advisor to Starfleet and developer of several of its modern-day technologies and tools. His laboratory seemed massively loaded with many strange and bizarre inventions, but that was expected as it was a laboratory. “Please do not touch anything.” Brain warned Lightning “One little accident in a laboratory could cause massive trouble.” Then Brain then sat himself down at a strange contraption that seemed to be heating water. Brain sniffed the steam. “Ahh…! Satisfactory…” he sighed “Most satisfactory.”
“What is that?” asked Lightning “Is it a device that lets you find Titan? Something that can beat him or get the unicorns and Krysta back…?”
“What? Oh, don’t be silly…” said Brain “This device is merely used to make me a cup of tea. I’ve finally perfected it you know.”
“A cup of tea…?” Lightning asked in annoyance “I thought you said you knew where Titan had gone?”
“But I do…” snapped Brain. He cleared his throat “Begging your pardon, if you will just hand me that map over there...” Lightning did as he was asked, and Brain unfolded the map and consulted his notes. “Mm, now, let me see. Ah, ha! Satisfactory…! Most satisfactory...”
“What is it?” asked Lightning.
Brain explained that the only place Titan could have taken the captured unicorns would be to Blacktop Mountain, which was located on the other side of Violet Swamp. “Then that’s where we should be heading.” Lightning suggested.
“Oh, good heavens, no!” snapped Brain “You know it’s dangerous to be wandering through the swamp at night? It… eh… especially would not be bright considering… em… our enemy would be expecting you. That is what had said, was it not?” Brain had a point. Violet Swamp was already a dangerous place even in daytime, but to tread through it at night knowing that Titan was likely there, and expecting him was very dangerous. Lightning would also be all alone and he had no magic or weapons to defend himself with. “I don’t care!” Lightning said “Krysta’s in danger and so are all the captured unicorns. I’m not just going to sit around and do nothing. Grand Ruler also trained me well. I know I can do this.” With that, he decided to fly out on his own. “Oh, dear!” cried Brain “The poor chap; I do hope he thinks twice of this at the last moment.”
…
Black-Top Mountain was the tallest mountain on the planet, and the upmost level of ground anyone could reach without having to fly so high. An old shrine lay on the mountaintop. Centuries ago it was used as a meeting place for Starfleet fighters of the past, and that was exactly where Titan was now. All the ponies he had captured were still trapped in their bubbles desperately trying to escape, but to no avail. Titan was most surprised to realize he had captured Krysta as well. “It’s not every day one comes across a fairy.” he hissed.
Krysta tried with all her magic and might to escape, but the bubble simply wouldn’t break. “What are you planning to do with us?” she demanded to know. Titan didn’t mind explaining to her that he was planning, and while he did he was interrupted along the way by the arrival of three other ponies; demoncorns Titan had created out of corpses, graveyard soils and fused with bits of his own magic to serve as his minions.
They were Mysterious ; a black shiny pony that was practically a living shadow, but had the force and might of a solid being.
The second was called Rep-Stallion ; a tough and rather pompous but strong pony holding a double-bladed scythe.
The third was a female, named Dementia . She seemed rather attractive, but she was dangerous nonetheless, and her name Dementia was implied because she had the power to warp dimensional energies and waves around her. (She is not an insult towards people with dementia, damn it!) The minions had reported that the members of Starfleet were on their way but they had also spotted a white alicorn with a golden horn at the edge of the swamp.
Titan held both his hands together creating a ball of light he used to view the edge of the swamp, and he saw Lightning. “Why, it’s that annoying little pest who tried to stand up to me.” Titan had heard stories of Lightning Dawn and how he had no magic to even do card-tricks, let alone anything spectacular, but he also knew he was the Grand Ruler’s personal apprentice. He had a feeling there was something special about Lightning due to his having a golden horn. When the minions asked if they should dispose of him, Titan refused. “Let him go.” he simply said. He wanted to see Lightning in action and hopefully find out any secrets that would be helpful. “And what of Starfleet, my lord?” asked Mysterious. Titan merely turned to his minions and answered with his red eyes glowing madly. “You know what must be done.”
…
Lightning stood at the edge of Violet Swamp, and Brain wasn’t kidding when he warned him--it really did seem dark and creepy at night. Just a simple gaze through all the thickets and brambles was enough to send chills up his spine. Still, Lightning has come this far, and he knew Krysta and the other unicorns were in danger. “Well… here goes.” He said to himself. Then he took one step forward crushing a twig under his boot as he walked followed by all kinds of screeches and noises from within the swamp. He gulped nervously but ventured forth.
It was hard to see when there wasn’t so much light, but at least it wasn’t so pitch dark you couldn’t see anything at all. Lightning figured the best way to traverse the swamp was just to keep going forward. He would eventually reach the mountain trail for sure. Jagged rocks, fallen logs and dangling vines seemed to trip him everywhere he stepped. He stepped in gooey mud “Yuck!” he groaned.
Suddenly, Lightning turned and thought he saw a monster, but it was only a tree in the shape of a monster. He saw a scary claw, which was actually just a long branch. Lightning took in a deep breath and counted to ten, then again, and felt better… until he heard the sound of footsteps coming towards him. Quivering in fear, he ducked down, and peeped, “Who’s there…?”
The bushes shook and twigs snapped, but then a friendly voice called. “Lightning…? Is that you…?” Lightning peeked up and saw it was Starla. He sighed heavily in relief. Starla called out to the others who were all close by. They all came over holding flashlights and lanterns “What are you doing here?” asked Artie “We told you not to follow us.”
Lightning explained that he didn’t follow them deliberately and came out here on his own.
“We realize you are in such worry.
But you must leave here in a hurry.” said Rhymey
“Listen!” Lightning snapped at them all “You can tell me that as many times as you want, but I’m not leaving.” The others could tell there was no point in trying to say no. So, despite it being against Star Fleet’s code, they allowed Lightning to come with them. So they all traversed though the swamp together. Rhymey even decided to make things easier. His horn glowed, and he shouted, “WARD SWORD!” causing a simple knight’s sword to materialize so he could cut and hack away at all the brambles and thickets, making a clear path through.
“Follow me this way…
Hurry now. Don’t delay.”
Everyone followed quickly, because all the things that Rhymey had hacked seemed to grow back almost instantly. Suddenly, Starla began sinking. “Hey!” she shrieked “Quicksand!” The others all leapt away before they got sucked in, but Starla couldn’t seem to get out, and if the others moved to close, they would get sucked in too. “Starla…!” Lightning called “Don’t struggle. You’ll only sink faster.”
Starla remained calm, and then Lightning pulled a vine from a tree and tossed it to her. Starla caught it. Then the whole gang pulled hard and yanked her out of the sand. Starla was okay, but they could all hear the sounds of heavy footsteps coming towards them. “What now?” Lightning asked. He soon got his answer as monstrous shadowy images seem to jump right out from round the trees and open fire on them. “Look out!” cried Buddy Rose and everyone leapt out of the way. “Run!”
There was worse to come as those shadows seemed to be popping up all over the place, and worse, the trees were falling over as they had been slashed as if someone were trying to crush the gang, but finally, after running for a while and dodging all the traps they made it out of the swamp all in one piece
“What a nightmare!” Buddy Rose panted.
Lightning was glad to be out of there and now just before them was the starting trail of Blacktop Mountain, and it looked even more eerie than the swamp, sending chills up everyone’s spines. Still, they all climbed, and resisted the urge to fly up the mountain, not knowing what traps lay ahead. Not only we’re there more monsters along the way, but booby traps as well-- Things like hidden pits, rock slides, falling boulders. Even scary shadows, which only turned out to be the shadows of the gang all huddled against the mountainside.
“And you Starfleet guys do this all the time?” Lightning asked.
“Yes… we do.” Artie said. “That’s why we all joined, to help out.”
Lightning had only read and heard stories about Starfleet while living with the Grand Ruler and had spent a great deal of his time studying the manuals and regulations. Titan was not the only evil they had ever faced, but there was always some bad guy or other evil forces out there causing trouble. So over the ages, Grand Ruler sent many legions of Star Fleet warriors to patrol areas of Dimensional Space and stave off any evil they could find. This was what inspired Lightning’s new friends to join Starfleet; to continue the legacy and protect Unicornicopia and the rest of the universe as best they could so that evil might never be allowed to harm anyone.
Lightning began to wonder if maybe he should join, but he quickly became discouraged due to the fact that he couldn’t do magic or summon weapons like the others. The others felt sorry for Lightning, and wished there was something they could do. “By the way…?” asked Starla “Why do you have a golden horn, anyway?” Lightning didn’t know the answer to that himself. For years he studied and searched through his books, but he could find nothing on golden horns, and even asked Grand Ruler many times, but he was only told the same thing; to give it time and all would be made clear. Lightning hoped he would find the answer soon, but right now it was time to focus. Soon, after a while of climbing they reached the top of the mountain and there was the old shrine temple just ahead as a flash of lightning and the booming of thunder made everyone wince.
“Well, here we are…” Artie said nervously. That’s when the doors to the shrine creaked open, as if they were being invited in.
“Gee! Do you think it’s okay…
To go in that way?” asked Rhymey
“We have too.” said Lightning “We didn’t come all this way to just turn back now.”
They all quietly walked through the open doors. It was dark and eerie inside. Nobody could see a thing. “Think we should announce we’re here?” asked Buddy Rose.
“How should we do that?” asked Starla
“How about… come and get us?” Lightning called out. That was when the doors slammed shut behind, and everything went pitch black. Everyone else screamed all at once. “…Although a bloodcurdling scream is just as good.” replied Lightning.
That’s when a torch on the wall lit with fire. Then another torch lit, and another, and another, all the way around the shrine. “Look!” cried Starla.
It was the Unicorns, all sleeping inside magic bubbles, and “Krysta!” cried Lightning. He dashed over towards the bubble. “Lightning, No…!” called Artie
“Don’t go…!” rhymed Rhymey
Lightning reached the bubbles, but found his hoof could pass right through them. “These are illusions!” That’s when all the bubbles vanished instantly, and sounds of laughter echoed throughout the shrine as Titan’s minions appeared. “Well, hello there…!” hissed Mysterious.
Rep-Stallion and Dementia snickered cheekily.
“Who are you?” snapped Buddy Rose “And what have you done with the alicorns.”
“…and Krysta!” added Lightning
“They’re safe… for the moment.” said Rep-Stallion. “And if you behave nicely, we just might make your fate less painful than theirs.” added Dementia.
The gang was starting to tell that these creeps were going to give them no end of trouble. “Don’t get any ideas!” snapped Artie “When the Grand Ruler finds out about this…”
“Don’t flatter yourself.” snorted Rep-Stallion. “We can beat his magic with one hand each. Well, maybe two.”
The ponies stood poised for battle, and Rhymey held his sword tightly. Lightning, however, wasn’t sure what to do. He didn’t have any magic to use, no weapons, not even any super armor like the others. So he ducked behind a column and watched as the others began to brawl!
Artie and Buddy Rose went after Mysterious. “Let’s get him!” shouted Buddy, and the boys charged at their enemy only to end up passing right through him.
“Huh…?”
“What…?”
“Hm, mm, mm…! You missed me.” Mysterious mocked at them. The boys tried again only to repeat what happened. Then suddenly they realized. Mysterious, being made of darkness, was able to manipulate his body. “Fools, you can’t just reach out and touch a shadow.” he mocked, and ran past the boys striking them with his horn. “… but perhaps the shadow can touch you!”
Even with their armor on, Buddy and Artie felt this would be harder than they thought. The others weren’t having much luck either, as Rhymey and Rep-Stallion went at it with their weapons. Rep-Stallion was very skilled in wielding his scythe, but he was rather impressed by Rhymey’s swordplay. “I must say, you are rather good…”
“I have practiced for long, like anyone should.” rhymed Rhymey.
Rep-Stallion sniggered, and then pulled a cheap magic attack, “SCYTHE SHOCK!” and his scythe began to spark with electricity that gave Rhymey a jolt and knocked him back hard. He got back onto his feet snarling angrily…
“I’ve had enough…
It’s time to get tough!”
He spread his wings out and shouted, “DRILL QUILL!” and as he flapped his wings hard, he sent a swarm of sharp quill feathers from his wings at his enemy like missiles. Rep-Stallion got hit several times as sparks and small explosions hit him. “So, you want to play that way? Fine then…!”
Meanwhile, Dementia and Starla stared each other down. “Let’s see what you’ve got.” Dementia sneered as she charged forward. Starla leapt out of the way. “STAR SHOWER” and with her shout sent a cluster of small stars, actually energy-bolts, straight at Dementia, nearly ruffling her mane and Dementia did not like it when someone tried to spoil her pretty looks, and Dementia did not like getting her looks spoiled She turned and glared furiously at Starla. “Oh…! Ye who messes my mane WILL PAY!!” she shouted and charged at Starla with all her might, and using her power to warp the air around her negating Starla’s attacks and mocked, “Like they say, a good offense is a strong defense!”
Starla didn’t care, but as the fight was about to continue, Titan appeared and called his minions off. “That’s enough.” he said with an evil snicker. “You have done well, my minions. Return to the castle.” The minions, though disappointed as they were having so much fun, obeyed their master and vanished into thin air.
Lightning peeked from behind the column. “Oh, no! Not him…!” he whimpered softly. Having previously had a taste of Titan’s power he knew Titan was going to be much tougher than the minions, maybe even too tough for the others to handle
“Release those prisoners now!” Buddy Rose demanded. “Never!” scoffed Titan “But if you insist on seeing them again, I’ll be glad to let you join them!” and he fired a stream of magic at the ponies, most of them dodged the magic, but Starla got hit. “Uhn…” she cried and she was trapped in a magic holding-bubble.
“Starla…!” shouted Lightning.
“Let’s get him!” shouted Artie! and everyone fire their best attacks all at once…
“LEAF SWARM…!” A cluster of razor sharp leaves…
“PAINT BOMB…!” Artie fired blobs of paint that exploded on contact whenever it hit.
“DRILL QUILL…!”
Titan got hit from all directions, but he didn’t even seem fazed. “Fools!” he laughed and then one-by-one, trapped each of them in more bubbles, ready to drain their magic and energies.
Lightning was horrified to see his friends in so much pain and suffering, as well as the prisoners, and he finally felt something inside of him snap, and he leapt out from behind the column shouting. “YOU LEAVE THEM ALONE…!”
Titan turned to face him.
“Lightning, don’t!” cried Starla.
“Get out of here while you still can!” shouted Buddy Rose, but Lightning refused.
For a moment, nothing happened. Neither Titan nor Lightning said a thing to one another or even moved. Suddenly, without warning, Titan fired a small projectile which Lightning barely dodged. “Stay out of my way weakling! I don’t know why the Grand Ruler chose you of all creatures to be his student, but I’d say he made a poor choice.”
Those words made Lightning furious and he clenched his fists angrily growling “Never say anything like that about my mentor in front of me!” and he charged towards Titan roaring like a monster. Impressed with his courage, but annoyed by his peskiness, Titan continued to fire more shots at Lightning, only to realize that Lightning was pretty quick on his feet and dodged each and every shot as if they were coming at him in slow-motion.
Titan growled and then fired one giant shot of power but Lightning leapt right over it and, with a fierce battle cry, he soared downward and managed to kick Titan right in the chest. Titan hollered in pain held his chest.
The others, watching from their prisons were nearly speechless.
“Look at him go.” exclaimed Artie.
“We were not able scratch him,
Yet he seems able to match him.” said Rhymey
“He’s amazing.” Starla muttered softly, unable to take her eyes off him.
Lightning himself wasn’t sure he could believe how strong he was, but began to realize that having been training with the Grand Ruler for more than a decade was the explanation.
Titan was most outraged. “You… dare strike me…?!” he thundered as his body began to glow with extreme anger, and he flapped open the lower area of his massive robe revealing that he had no legs at all, and that it was all just black and purple smog. “What the--?!” snapped Lightning “How…? But what…?” and while he stood there stammering in confusion, Titan saw his chance and unleashed a strong wave of extreme dark energy which hit Lightning with the force of a hurricane and seemingly knocking him down for the count.
“…LIGHTNING!!” the others all shouted, and when the smog had cleared, Lightning lay flat on the ground and felt very weak and sore. Titan laughed hard and evilly and continued to mock at him, “And you call yourself an alicorn?” Lightning struggled to get up, but he collapsed in near exhaustion and pain. Titan decided, “Well then, allow me to put you out of your misery!” Titan said as began to power up again for one final, really big blast. The others could hardly bare to watch, this truly looked like the end for Lightning…
“No…!” Lightning suddenly snapped, and he struggled, and struggled, and he managed to stand back up, much to Titan lividness. “Good gracious, are you still thinking you can win?”
“I’m… not… thinking…” said Lightning “Magic… or no magic… I KNOW I CAN BEAT YOU!” That’s when his golden horn began to glow with a mystical light that seemed to cover all of Lightning’s body. He felt incredibly strong now.
“That… that glow!” growled Titan “…No! No it can’t be…?!”
The others all watched in amazement. “Is that what I think it is…?” asked Buddy Rose.
“Without a doubt…
The truth now comes out!” said Rhymey.
Titan was not willing to let it be so. “Say goodbye…!” he snarled as he continued to charge up, but Lightning, still glowing, stepped forth and recited a chant…
“I summon forth a mystic power
To aid me in this darkest hour
Casting now upon my foe
I now unleash… this magical glow…!”
Titan roared loudly and fired his magic-stream, and Lightning shouted, “…UNIFORCE!” He fired a large and powerful golden force of extreme magic which met with Titan’s force sending it right back towards him. “AAHH-Uh…? NO…!” KAPOW! He was hit hard and seemed to explode in a ball of fire, leaving only his charred robe behind. Lightning stopped glowing, and he felt extremely exhausted now as if he had just blown out every last bit of his energy.
The bubble cells holding all the prisoners had vanished now that Titan was gone. Lightning’s friends were released from their bubbles while outside, the dark clouds lifted as the evil vanished from the mountain and the swamp below. Everyone shouted for joy, and Krysta was so happy to be free and so proud of Lightning while the members of Star Fleet were amazed. “He did it.” said Buddy Rose.
“But how…?” asked Arite.
Lightning was slowly recovering his strength but he still felt a little woozy. “Wow!” he exclaimed “What did I just do?”
“Lightning, you won!” cried Krysta “You saved everyone.”
Lightning felt really shocked and amazed with himself. It all happened so fast though.
Suddenly, the doors to the shrine opened, as dawn began to break and the sun shined through, followed by a mystical glow and then… he appeared-- a handsome, tall white alicorn with a short dark mane with sparkling stars glittering just like his tail . He wore jewel encrusted golden armor with doublets on each side into it, a red cape with gold markings fluttering on his back, even though there was no breeze. Golden Pegasus wings, black boots with golden edges round the feet, and atop his head were three golden horns, all shimmering like the stars
The ponies all bowed, and so did Krysta. Lightning’s eyes lit up and he actually found the strength to leap for joy. “Grand Ruler , you’re here!” He ran over to greet his mentor, and Grand Ruler was pleased to see everyone. “Lightning, my boy, I am pleased you and everyone are safe, and I am very proud of you, for what you have done.”
“You are, sir?”
His mentor nodded and explained he had. He explained that he had witnessed everything that had happened; he didn’t come to help because he knew that Lightning’s training would pay off. “Now you must listen to me, all of you. A thing I have feared most is occurring.”
He crossed over to Titan’s charred robe and pulled out a damaged block of wood with an ancient seal marking on it. “This was not actually Titan, but in fact a hollowed imitation of him, which only further proves my fears are correct.”
He explained that ever since he had fought against Titan a-thousand years ago and banished him into the Dark planet, it was always known and feared that Titan would one day make an attempt to escape and return to finish what he started. “It would appear that the real Titan is beginning to regain his power.”
He continued to explain that the Dark Planet was an old prison planet located in the outer reaches of the galaxy, had been shrouded by a powerful force-field which had Titan there for all those centuries, but now it was now beginning to weaken. Titan had obviously been working hard to restore his powers over time and had now succeeded in creating a small rift in the seal, which was how he able to send his minions and the fake-him to Unicornicopia.
“He was testing us?” asked Lightning.
“Yes, I’m afraid he was, and even now, slowly but surely, Titan will attempt to find ways to increase his powers to escape my seal, and if he does that will surely mean disaster to all.”
The ponies were starting to feel frightened “We can’t let him escape.” said Artie.
“What can we do?” asked Starla.
More and more ponies began to panic and stammer about of what to do. “Calmness everyone…!” Grand Ruler said and he explained that there was still hope that Titan would not escape. The seal was still strong and it would take a force of immense power to break it. “I will be doing whatever it is I can to maintain and strengthen the seal. I am, however, concerned about this, for it means I will not be able to assist any of you in battle.”
This worried everyone. “But we need you to fight by our side.” cried Starla.
“We can’t beat Titan without you.
Who knows what he may try or do.” said Rhymey.
“You all must understand. Unicornicopia is already in enough danger.” said Grand Ruler. “Titan can still send his minions and who knows what else to attack our world. As well as maintaining the seal of the Dark Planet, I must also use my power to protect the civilians and innocent ones of my kingdom. I mustn’t strain myself any more than I should have to.”
He gazed down at the fighter ponies, “You all and many others with you are officers of Starfleet. It will be your duty like those before you to fight to defend our world from any and all evil attacks that may come our way.”
“Yes sir!” the fighters said and saluted to him. Grand Ruler nodded, and then gazed at Lightning. “As for you, Lightning, the time has come for you to take your training to the next level. I want you to join Starfleet as well.”
Lightning was speechless and shocked at first, as were the others.
“I have trained you well, Lightning Dawn, and you have already proven yourself to be a worthy fighter.” Grand Ruler said “Though you have no natural magic of your own, you are no doubt capable of performing tasks and doing battle without it, and that with your golden horn, you have the power to tap into the uniforce-- the one thing that Titan and his minions fear most.”
“But what is the uniforce?” Lightning asked “How do I unleash it again?”
Grand Ruler placed his hand over Lightning’s shoulder. “You will learn in due time, and you will also discover that you are capable of doing far more than you think, and so will all of you.” He bowed to his subjects and they all bowed back.
