Bonebeat and Pastel are running like crazy when they saw the realistic looking Nightmare Moon. Shadow Heart, Sparkstrike, Sunset Flames, and Smiles have ran off different directions.
"Ha, ha, think we lost her?" Pastel asked. Beat looked at her nodding.
"I think she's deciding who to chase," Beat said. A chill went down their spines as they heard evil laughter from behind them. They looked over their shoulders slowly to see a doll. "Okay Pastel, you've seen movies right?" Bonebeat asked. Pastel nodded. "In that case, I shouldn't have to tell you to-"
"RUN!!!" She yelled, as they both ran as the creepy doll sped after us. The doll was creepy due to it's worn out fabric, melted buttons for eyes, and it's sowing was falling apart. "Why is that chasing us!?" Violet asked, running.
"I don't know! Wait, how much do you weigh?" Bonebeat asked, realizing he had wings.
"About seventy two pounds, why the hell do you need to, hey what're you doing?" She asks as Bonebeat picks her up.
"Getting us out of here!" He said, flying like a bullet thanks to adrenaline. Pastel clung on to Bonebeat since she wasn't used to flight. That, and they were very high in the air, at least a few feet from rooftops. "If there's one thing I know about dolls, is that they can't fly!" He said. He stops above a house. He gently sets her down, realizing that she is shaking a small bit. She lets go of Beat and clings to the roof, even thought she was a few feet away from the ledge. Bonebeat sits down beside her. "Are you scared of heights?" He asks. Pastel respond by nodding slowly. "Alright, I'll drop you off at my house, and I'll get the others. There's no freaking way the doll would find you there!" He said. He realized that his adrenaline was wearing off and that his wing was searing with pain.
"Hey, um Bonebeat, your wings scratched to say the least," Pastel pointed out. Bonebeat looked at his wing and almost screamed. There was a gash from the tip of it to the mid-section of it. No blood, but it hurt badly. He realized he had cut it when he hit a side of a house. He sighs.
"Great, I can't fly us anywhere," Beat said, slumping down.
"Well, look on the bright side, the doll can't get us right?" Pastel asked, slowly sitting up.
"Eh, true. I just hope it can't climb," he said. As if their luck just slapped them in the face, the doll's head popped up.
"OH COME ON!!!" Pastel yelled.
Meanwhile, Sparkstrike and Sunset Flames are running from a goop that was a sickly green, like toxic. Sunset and Sparkstrike learned that it is toxic when it passed through some flowers, leaving them crippled and brown. They ran for at least five minutes when the goop turned to a different direction. They stopped, and Shadow was breathing heavily to gain air.
"Okay okay okay, it's okay Shadow Heart, don't worry, you have a unicorn on your side. It's okay..." He said, panting. Sunset sighed.
"Shadow, I don't know that many spells, only levitation and aqua spells," she said shaking her head. Heart's ears perked up.
"I have an idea!" He said. Sunset tilted her head in confusion. He motioned her to follow him. "Remember how that thing drained the flower? Maybe it's thirsty!" He said. Sunset almost face hoofed because of how far fetched it sounded.
"No offense doc, but I don't think it'll work," she said deadpanned. He shook his head.
"We could try it right?" He asked. Sunset sighed, nodding. They quickly found the toxic slime, munching on a flower costume, spit it out, and give a gurgled giggle. "Alright, now!" Shadow said, pointing. Sunset quickly started spraying water on it, but it grew.
"Um, doc, your bright idea's not working!" She said, fear in her voice. Heart started shaking.
"Well, then the only other way now is to run," he said. The jet off into one direction, fear of the goop chasing them. They passed Sugarcube, Town Hall, and got to Sweet Apple Acres. They breathed heavily, gaining oxygen for a good few minutes. Shadow tried to look for Applejack, who was nowhere in sight. "Darn," he muttered, not too happy. He had planned to get Applejack's help, but he forgot that she was in charge of that maze. He ran up the tree with Flames, letting the goo lose them. Flames hit Heart by the back of his head.
"Nice going idiot, I don't mean to be rude, but your idea didn't work. What's next?" She asked. He looked down deep in thought. He wasn't sure what to do. He heard a gurgled scream and looked out to see the goo running away from a scarecrow. A lightbulb went on and he smiled mischievously.
"This could work," he whispered. Sunset tilted her head, awaiting for his plan.
Meanwhile, Spark strike was hauling flank, carrying Smiles Galore on his back. He was being chased by a creature with horns, and flaming eyes, and it was laughing like a maniacal laugh. Smiles Galore has filled him in on what happened, and he half listened. They soon went to the Town hall to see it over run with monsters. Every pony's screaming. Soon, Nightmare Moon stood laughing at everyone's terrified screams. Spark didn't waste time watching, and flew around to find Shadow, knowing he'd have some plan. Spark strike soon found him running over.
"Doc, the town's being invaded with monsters! What do we do? I'd ask the princess, but she's nowhere to be seen right now!" Spark said. Smiles nodded to confirm him.
"We have to scare them," Shadow said. Spark strike gave him a blank stare.
"I don't know if you know this, but those monsters are monsters, do you see the fault in your ingenious plan?" He asked. Shadow rolled his eyes.
"I gave a spell to Flames, it will make us seem scary, but we need the right music, I want you to find Bonebeat, he should be aro-"
"Help us!" Yelled a raspy voice, while mixed with a slightly deep voice. Bonebeat and Pastel ran into them, losing their doll pursuer. Bonebeat sighed with relief.
"Here," Shadow finished, brushing himself off as he got up. "Bonebeat, I need you to find Vinyl, I have a plan to get rid of the monsters," he saiod, smiling. Bonebeat nodded.
Soon, all the monsters were attracted by a noise, which they liked. It had a scary sound to it. One of the monsters started dancing, while the others were curious. Then, a bat pony, strangely with dark yellow fur, leaned out of an alley. Soon, another bat pony, with dark fur came trotting up. A tall demon like monster, walked up to it, standing up, seeming three times the size. The lamp post illuminating light went out for a second, then it went back on, the head of the demon off with blue mist leaking out. A pink pony with a sword trotted up, slashing two monsters, then turns to a monster doll and laughs creepily. The yellow bat pony hissed, jumping onto another monster, ripping it to shreds. Blue mist leaked everywhere. The music kept playing, every monster pony destroying a monster on beat. The monsters soon trembled as a purple, sleepy monster was burned into dark blue ashes in a trash can. They started running away, vaporising into mists. Nightmare Moon saw this and growled.
"Don't flee! They're only costumes!" She yelled. They didn't listen, the screams of fellow monsters was enough proof for them. Soon, Nightmare Moon was alone, and shocked as the pony monsters ganged up on her. The music started ending, and this was the beginning of Nightmare Moons laughter. Her mane started to go lighter. Her fur turned into navy blue, and her fangs fell out. Everyone gasped as the 'Nightmare Moon' they knew turned into Luna. She started to stop laughing and smile happily.
"Well done Ponyville, you have gone up against my fake army!" She said. The monster ponies turned back to normal, and Shadow Heart walked up.
"What do you mean? Weren't you trying to, I don't know, enslave us? Invade Equestria or something?" He asked, bewildered. Luna shook her head smiling.
"Goodness no, I was making a game for all of Equestria! Each year I will set up a fake army of monsters, and the ponies in the city or town must defend themselves or ward them off! I had decided on Ponyville since it's where I began scaring ponies for everyone's fun!" She said. Bonebeat yelped with glee running up to hug Luna.
"So you did actually promise, when Big Mac told me about it, I didn't believe!" He said. Shadow Heart prided him off and apologized.
"Well, ponies of Ponyville, I claim Ponyville to be victorious!" Luna said in her Canter lot voice. Everyone cheered, and they celebrated with a huge party.
The End...
Everyone in Celestia's meeting smiled.
"So, Ponyville is the only town that won, and that's what happened? The only thing I don't understand is, why those six? These ponies aren't the Mane Six, but they have solved a problem, why?" Asked Philper, a representative of Zebrica. The other representatives nodded.
"Yes, why are these six important?" Asked Shelacan, a representative of Derland (1). Sanhara, a representative of the desert lands, nodded with her snake head.
"It's not like they're boring, but why are they important is a good question," he said. Celestia smiled.
"I had a vision of them, and many more. These six aren't really the only ones on an adventure when they set off, which I think will be in the next month. Now, I think we're done here, you can all go," Celestia said, smiling. Everyone nodded and left. Celestia frowned with fear, remembering the end of her vision. "I hope I can count on my little ponies..."

Finally! I'm done! I wish I released it yesterday, but I accidentally fell asleep on my tablet.
