The Crystal King and the Tiny Menace

"Five more days." Spike said, as he put the last of the frosting on top of his cupcake tower. Twilight came around the corner with candy sprinkles and more frosting for his tower.

Spike put the finishing touches on his masterpiece, then backed away and stared at it in awe. The gems on his cupcake made it shine as the sun shone behind his stack of crystal gem cupcakes. Spike's mouth began to water as he kneeled down before his cake.

"All hail the wonders of this GLORIOUS BEAUTY!" Spike praised, "why, it's even more beautiful than Rarity."

Twilight laughed, "I'm sure it is."

Discord joined the two, staring at the stack as well.

"It sure is, very very beautiful indeed." he said, in a grandma voice minicing Twilight.

Twilight and Spike jumped back and screamed a little. Discord was dressed up in an old grandma dress, wearing a wig with a hat on, and had on makeup that made him look almost as if he was an old woman. He then rolled his eyes and turned back into his old self.

Twilight and Spike sighed in relief.

"Dude, don't EVER scare us like that again." Spike replied from his scarce spot.

"Oh please, I was only trying to warm up my fair, how should I say this....." Discord teleported closer to Spike's face.

"Component....." he said evilly, and deep.

Twilight cut in between the two.

"Alright, alright that's enough of madness from you Discord. Shouldn't you be getting ready from the contest yourself?"

Discord sighed, "Yes, you see, Fluttershy and I were working on our 8-layer, double decker carrot cake together at Sugar Cube Corner in Pinkie's kitchen....."

"8-layer? Double decker?" Spike said in defeat.

"Yes, but.......she had a meeting to go to with that, hippy-dippy, crazy lunatic pony, Tree Hugger, down in the Everfree Forest, so I got bored. Then I decided to come down here and see how my.....competition, is going." Discord explained.

Spike grumbled.

"Nah, I bet since Fluttershy left with Tree Hugger, you got bored and decided to come here and gloat about how great your cake is!"

Discord smirked.

"I was going to do that, but I promised Fluttershy I wouldn't gloat until the competition. So there you have it." Discord stuck his lizard tongue out at Spike, who did the same.

"Alright you two calm down!" Twilight said, calming them both, "save it for the competition."

Spike quickly held his mouth as his cheeks puffed. He then let out a belch as fire came out.

"Ow...that hurt more than the last time." Spike said, as he rubbed his stomach.

Twilight caught the letter with her magic, opened it and began reading.

"Dearest Twilight,", she read, "I need you and your friends, along with Discord and Spike, to report to the Crystal Empire immediately! It's an urgent emergency! ~ Celestia"

"Why does she need us to go?" Discord grumbled, "I don't wanna see that naggy princess who always tells me what to do."

"I don't know, but I have a feeling that it has something to do with that mirror you activated."

Twilight, along with Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Spike and Discord all made to the empire as fast as they could. In the main hall, stood Princess Cadence, Luna and Celestia, along with the mirror Discord had activated.

"Twilight! You've made it!" Cadence shouted with glee, " and you've brought your friends!"

"And Discord....." Luna added, in an annoyance type of way.

"Well I didn't wanna come! But your sister insisted that I did so, talk to the claw girlfriend!"

Luna rolled her eyes.

Celestia, along with Luna and Cadence, walked towards the group of friends.

"Twilight, I'm glad you've made it." Celestia replied with a smile.

Twilight smiled back. Until Celestia's smile became a frown of concern.

"...because I have some unfortunate news."

This made everypony gasp.

"What is it?! Are creatures from the mirror coming out and invading Equestria?!" Rarity yelped. Celestia nodded.

"No, but there is a threat that we believe has come back from the dead." Everypony gasped once again.

"Who is princess?! Chrysalis, Tierk?! Trixie?! Starlight Glimmer-"

"Sombra...." Discord finished. Everypony turned to him and gasped.

"CAN WE STOP WITH THE GASPING PLEASE?! It's freaking annoying."

"How did you know that it was Sombra?!" Cadence asked in shock.

"I can sense his ancient magic, and I can tell you, it's not very strong from the state that he's in." Discord continued to smell his scent, "I've also noticed that he isn't the only evil scent in this world. He's close to someone with the same power but not as much as his."

"Who is it then?!" Rainbow yelled impatiently.

"I DON'T KNOW! But they're from that other world Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich are in."

Plankton and Karen starting tracking the source that Pinkie Pie and Cheese used to come to their world.

"Find anything sweetie?" Plankton asked, taking a suntan on top of Karen.

"No not yet, I've just tracked some old sand. But there is a strange tracking down by Jellyfish fields."

"Well to Jellyfish fields we go! I want to study this device or object those two creatures used to get here." Plankton said evilly.

Meanwhile, down in Spongebob's humble home, Pinkie and Cheese were having a breakfast cook-off in honor to feed Spongebob, Patrick and Sandy.

"Go Pinkie Pie! You've got this girl!" Sandy shouted.

"C'mon Cheese! Show This girl what you're made of!" Spongebob gloated.

"I'm hungry! Hurry up." Patrick said, rubbing his stomach.

Pinkie had her spatula in a boomerang shape, flinging it towards the table of frozen waffles. Once the waffles made it successfully to the 12 toasters on the counter, Pinkie quickly ran to the fridge and karate kick a box of strawberries, and a bottle of both hot fudge and whipped cream to the counter with 5 plates for each hungry guest.

Cheese performance was excellent also. Not only did he manage to cook six tasty eggs and have them done in seconds, but he was also able to make fresh honey bacon and crispy sausages. Once Pinkie had finished putting the finishing touch on the waffles, she and Cheese Sandwich worked together and performed a tango dance, getting the eggs, bacon, and the sausages to their destinations.

As Cheese twirled Pinkie to the table with the plates, Pinkie spinned on her tiptoes and kicked the 5 plates down to the table.

Once finished, Pinkie twirled back to Cheese and landed in his arms.

Spongebob and Sandy applauded, as Patrick dug in his dish.

"That was some mighty fancy dance moves ya' got there!" Sandy complimented," I didn't know y'all pony folk learned karate!"

Pinkie rubbed dust off her chest with confidence, "I have to thank my sister Maud for that!"

"And the Cheese on these eggs are splendid Cheese!" Spongebob added.

"Thank you!" Cheese said with pride. He then caught a glimpse of Pinkie's bracelet, which was glowing like crazy.

Cheese elbowed Pinkie.

"Hey! What was that for?!" Cheese eyed at her bracelet. When Pinkie caught a glimpse of it, she could also see it glowing like crazy.

Her attention was then at Spongebob.

"Uhh.....I'll be right back guys....I have to ummm......PEE! Right, I have to pee!"

"Then go pee." Sandy urged, confusingly. Pinkie nodded her head, then ran to the bathroom.

Pinkie made to the bathroom, then slammed to door. She put her bracelet up to her face, and pressed her charm as it glowed and showed a screen of Twilight's face.

"PINKIE PIE!" All her friends, including the princesses, and Discord yelled.

Pinkie's eyes quickly filled up with tears of joy to hear the sounds of her friends once again.

"Oh I miss you guys so much!" Pinkie squealed.

"Pinkie Pie! We have urgent news for you and Cheese that you must be aware of!"

Pinkie wiped away her tears, "Okey Dokey! I'm all ears!"

Celestia came to the camera, "We believe we've tracked Sombra, and we think he's came back from the dead and is planning on going to that world you're in."

"There's also dark magic coming from that world as well." Luna added.

Pinkie gasped, "WHAAT?!"

"Have you found anything yet honey?" Plankton asked, in a bored tone.

He didn't get a response. Plankton arose.

"Honey? Karen?!"

When Plankton fully arose, he saw what his computer wife saw.

"That.....one......big......PORTAL."

Suddenly, a figure came from the portal, which made Plankton jump.

When the figure fully came out, he fell flat on the ground. Plankton still stared at him in awe. The male figure arose and dusted of his chest.

He cleared his throat, "Hello. I am from the land of the Crystal Empire. I heard that this world is filled with chaos and proportion."

Plankton stayed silent.

"Who are you?" he asked.

The male smiled evilly.

"Why, I'm King Sombra....but please, call me Sombra."
