After about a week after the Siege of Icecrown, everything return to normal. Well, almost everything. Some things happened during that week.
First to start with; The Phantom Consortium, The Equestrian Empire, and the Vampony Empire gained some new allies. While the Scourge joined in on the alliance with the Equestrian Empire and the Phantom Consortium, the Watchers became allies to the Vampony Empire. We were lucky to have the Watchers. However; word is that the Watchers were at war with the Sentinels (Another group of Night Ponies, led by Tyrande Whisperwind). Turns out that Maiev and Tyrande have a bad history and were always at each other's throats. However, that is not all. An army of undead ponies came to me after the news of Illidan and Sylvanas' deaths were public. They were Sylvanas' old followers; The Forsaken. They were led by Ranger-General Siren Ghostsong, another Dark Ranger. Unlike Sylvanas, though, she was a unicorn. Leading the Forsaken, they joined the Vamponies and the Watchers. We formed a secret group known as The Hoof of Vengeance. It is an Alliance made between the Vampony Empire, The Watchers, and The Forsaken. It's main purpose was to be used against the Equestrian Empire, should they try something suspicious.
Speaking of other alliances; word got out that the Minotaurish Horde has split up. The Warsong Offense; led by Garrosh Hellscream, led his Minotaurish Horde, and the Old Horde; Led by Thrall. Iron Will left being Warchief but the alliance with the Phantom Consortium remained strong. It is basically a civil war but there has been some factions helping out Thrall and the Old Horde.
As for Lilith, she has been a good mare since the Havoc crisis. And being the Aspect of Sex and Lust, she has been making attempts to reward me for 'helping' her regain control of her prison [Tartarus]. And by 'reward'; I mean she has been attempting to lure me to her place and probably do something... forcefully sexual, if you get my meaning. Anyway; she will never get to me anytime soon with my mates guarding me 24/7.
Anyway, today was the day where me and Charming unlocked our Aspect powers.
Me, Rainbow, Sonata, and Trixie arrived to Ponyville where we are to go to Twilight's Castle. When we arrived, we see the Demented 6, Mane 5, and Charming. We went to join them and I went to Charming. There, in front of us, was the Elements of Harmony and Insanity.
"You ready for this? Once we begin, there is no turning back."
Charming replied "Whatever happens from here, I will accept."
I nodded and we aimed our hooves for the elements.
"We are ready. You may beginning the final test."
The elements began to glow and we began to glow. When we were surrounded by a sphere of energy, the sphere scattered into seven pieces. The sphere disappeared, leaving no signs of Charming and Danny.
Silence...
Rainbow asked "Where did they go?"
2 hours later...
"Where are they?" Twilight asked.
At that moment, the door burst open and they looked, seeing Apple Bloom. She looked like she was running for a while.
Applejack asked "Apple Bloom? What's going on?"
"Sis; Danny and Charming are at Sweet Apple Acres and they are acting different! Charming is being all honest; not even lying a single bit. And Danny; he is being addictive to Vampire Wine and won't stop having some!" Apple Bloom said.
Brutalight added "Why does that sound familiar..."
Twilight shook her head "Take us there, immediately."
Apple Bloom nodded and they began to run out of the castle.

The Hunt for the Elements
Twilight and her friends were following Applebloom to Sweet Apple Acres. When they arrived, they began to look around.
Twilight asked “Where are they, Applebloom?”
Charming's voice said from above “Up here.”
They looked and see Charming on the barn roof, laying down. He had a brown crushable fedora on his head and his cutie mark was different. Instead of the Triforce Symbol, it was the Element of Honesty. Charming looked down to them and got up. He jumped down and when he almost landed on the ground, a force of air gushed to his feet, securing his fall.
Applejack asked “Charming?”
‘Charming’ replied “Nah, name is Honesty. I am the essences of the Element of Honesty.”
“What do you mean you are the essences of the Element of Honesty?” Brutalight asked.
Honesty answered “It means that Charming’s third and final test is to unite the other elements together and they use the elements together. The same is with Danny.”
Rainbow asked “Speaking about Danny, where is he?”
Honesty replied “Oh, like Charming, he was separated into the seven essences of the Elements of Insanity. If you are looking for Danny’s element here, Addictions is inside, drinking Vampire Wine.”
That was when the door opens and Addictions came out. Addictions looked like Danny, but the only difference was that he had a Red Bandana around his neck, his cutie mark was the Element of Addictions, and his pupils were insanely small (Like all Pony Freaks) but his eye color was still the same Neon Green color.
Addictions asked “Hey Honesty, do you have any vampire wine on you?”
Honesty replied “No, I don’t. Why?”
Addictions replied with a shrug “I seemed to have run out of some.”
Applejack and Rainbow looked at each other before looking back at the elemental copies of their husbands. Both Applejack and Rainbow didn’t know what to do with these two, due to the fact that they just discovered that they have been separated into 7 fragments and they need to unite them.
Applepills said “Well, this just got pillsy- I mean, crazy.”
Brutalight nodded “So let me get this straight… Charming and Danny have been separated into seven fragments, all are which scattered all across Equestria!?”
Honesty answered “No, they have just been scattered all across Ponyville. I mean; think about it. You found me and Addictions where Applejack would be. Applejack lives here in Sweet Apple Acres, so it would be common if the Element of Honesty to be here. And since Applepills is just Applejack’s insanity counterpart, it would be logical for the Element of Addictions would be here.”
“Wait. If Applejack and Applepills originated here, then the Elements of Honesty and Addictions would come here. So that means…” Twilight began to add up.
Brutalight said “The other elements are at the location where the bearer originated from.”
Rainbow asked “Does that mean what I think it means?”
Twilight nodded “Yes. The elements looking like Charming and Danny go by their element names. So I would guess that Generosity and Greed are at the Carousel Boutique, Laughter and Bloodlust are at Sugarcube Corner, Loyalty and Cybernetics would be either at Rainbow’s home or Cloudsdale, Kindness and Ear-Rape would be at Fluttershy’s Cottage, Magic and Insanity whereabouts are a mystery, and I don’t have a clue where Courage and Nightmares would be at.”
Addictions shouted for no reason “Let’s follow that trail!”
We began to run, heading to the Carousel Boutique.
They arrived and that was when they see Sweetie Belle and Creepy Belle coming out of the house. They shut the door and looked at them.
Sweetie said to them “You don’t want to go in there! Charming and Danny are fighting in there and so far, Danny is winning!”
Twilight asked as they heard a bang in the house “What is going on in there?”
Creepy replied “We were looking at Rarity’s design plans when we see a flash of white behind us. We looked and see Danny and Charming, only they were different.”
Honesty added “I would say that we found Generosity and Greed.”
The two fillies looked at Honesty and Addictions before their mouths fell flat.
Sweetie shouted in confusion “How are there two Charming and Danny’s!?”
Brutalight explained “Long story short; Danny and Charming activated their final phase to unlock their Aspect powers and they were separated into seven fragments.”
Creepy said “That explains why Danny has the Gauntlet of Greed and all of Rarifruit’s powers, abilities, and skills.”
Rarifruit shouted “He has the WHAT!?”
Before anything could be said; there was a loud band and the door swung opened, a Charming flying out of it. This Charming looked like the original Charming but the differences were that this Charming’s Cutie Mark was the Element of Generosity.
Honesty and Addictions shouted in unison “Hey Generosity!” Generosity looked at them and waved to them before he dodged an object, which looked like Rarifruit’s Demonic Hands. At that moment, a Danny came out of the house. This Danny looked like the original but this one had some differences. This Danny had a TF2 Team Captain hat on his head that was completely colored Neon Green, his cutie mark was the Element of Greed, he had the Gauntlet of Greed on his right hoof, and his pupils were insanely small but they still had the same eye color. “Hey Greed!”
Greed looks at them before eying Applejack’s hat. Greed’s gauntlet began to glow before Applejack’s hat left her, causing her to gasped in shock. The hat went to Greed’s side.
Greed shouted “MINE!!!”
Greed had an insane smile on his face.
Generosity asked “Do you have to take everything? First you take Rarity’s gems, and then you take Applejack’s hat, what’s next?”
Rarity shouted “He took my WHAT!?”
Greed said “Well; if you want it back, you will have to fight to get them back.”
Brutalight replied “As much amusing as that would be, we need to get to Sugarcube Corner.”
Honesty and Addictions nodded in agreement. Rarifruit put a magic barrier bubble around Greed and they began to head to Sugarcube Corner with Greed banging against the bubble.
When they arrived at Sugarcube Corner, they came inside and see a Charming performing some funny activities (like juggling rubber chickens). This Charming looked like the original. The only difference was the fact that this Charming’s Cutie Mark was the Element of Laughter. And he was doing his job rather well, with everyone laughing around. Pinkie was even laughing as well, enjoying the sight. Twilight giggled quietly, finding it amusing as well. They looked around, not see no other Danny. Brutalight and Pinkie ended the show and told the crowd to head away now.
Generosity greeded “Hello Laughter.”
Laughter asked “Well, did you like the show?”
Pinkie replied “I found it very, very, very, very, very, VERY Funny!”
Addictions asked “Hey Laughter, do you know where Bloodlust is?”
Laughter shrugged, not knowing where Bloodlust would have gone to.
“I might have an idea where.” Pinkis said.
They looked at her with curiosity.
Underneath Sugarcube Corner…
We were heading down some stairs that led to somewhere underground. When we found the secret passage, Pinkie had become Pinkamena (Pinkie’s dark side).
Pinkamena asked “What makes you think that ‘Bloodlust’ is here?”
Pinkis replied “Well; I’m the bearer of the Element of Bloodlust. I practically eat on living beings so it would be common that Bloodlust would be here.”
Pinkamena said “You know; I totally disagree your action right now.”
Pinkis replied “I know; I was you at one point, you know.”
They got to a door and opened it. They walked in and Pinkamena turned on the light. There was all sorts of things in the hidden room. There was a strap table, all sorts of torturing equipment, etc. There looked like there wasn’t a single soul here.
Pinkamena said “Well, he isn’t here. So we came down here for-“
At that moment, we heard the sound of what would be a shotgun clicking reload. We looked at the source, seeing nothing.
Pinkis said, getting in a battle stance “He’s here alright.”
There was another sound and they looked towards the source, seeing nothing. Then, there was a clicking sound right next to Pinkamena. She looked at the source, seeing a Danny there with an insane smile. He tackles her, having her on the ground and him being on top of her.
Bloodlust greeted “Hi Pinkie.”
Bloodlust looked like the original Danny. The only difference was that his eyes were insanely small but the same eye color and his cutie mark was the Element of Bloodlust.
Pinkamena asked “D-Danny?”
Bloodlust replied “Ah, you still remember me.” Bloodlust chuckled in craziness. “So cute.”
Pinkamena asked “Dear Celestia, what happened to you?”
Bloodlust explained “Oh, nothing serious. I was just scattered into seven pieces and I happen to be the Element of Bloodlust and well, I’m just crazy. So here I am! Bloodlust!”
Pinkamena begged “D-Danny, please… don’t hurt me.”
“Oh, its ok Pinkie, I’m not going to hurt you.” Bloodlust reassured.
Pinkamena asked “You’re not?”
Bloodlust replied “I’m just going to eat you.”
Bloodlust had his insane smile again and chuckled darkly.
Greed said “Oh look, Déjà vu.”
Brutalight ordered “Enough Bloodlust.”
Bloodlust looks over to them and nods, getting off of Pinkamena.
Pinkis replied “Come on, we should head over to Fluttershy’s Cottage. I have a strange feeling that something bad is happening over there.”
The group was halfway there when they heard a loud voice that would equal Fluttershout’s yelling voice and the Equestrian Royal Voice.
The loud ear-raping like shouting voice said “GET BACK HERE, YOU CURSED DEMON OF A RABBIT, SO I CAN MURDER YOU!!”
They began to run over to the scene. When they arrived, they see Angel Bunny running for his life to Fluttershy and hiding behind her. That was when a Danny and a Charming came along. Danny looked like the original but there were some differences. This Danny had a Deluxe Velboa Hat on his head, like Fluttershout. His pupils were insanely small and his left eye color was its normal color while the right eye color was blood red and had a red marking around his right eye (Like Fluttershout). His cutie mark was the Element of Ear-Rape. The Charming looked like the original but there was a slight difference. This Charming’s cutie mark was the Element of Kindness and his personality was completely shy. Ear-Rape looked towards where Fluttershy was and sees Angel Bunny.
Ear-Rape shouted “THERE YOU ARE, YOU SELF-RIGHTOUS LITTLE BASTARD!”
Ear-Rape was about to lung at Angel but Fluttershy stopped him.
Fluttershy shouted “How dare you. HOW DARE YOU!” She had activated her Stare at Ear-Rape, who held his ground. “Just because you are bigger and meaner, doesn’t mean you can bully others like you want to.”
Everyone except Ear-Rape began to back off from the two. Suddenly, Ear-Rape’s gaze hardened at Fluttershy. Before anything could be said, Fluttershy began to cower like a coward. She looked like she was suffocating.
Ear-Rape replied “You think you can boss me around like you own me? You think that you are the only one who can perform the famous ‘The Stare’? Well, not anymore. That Rabbit attacked me first, its only right that I stand up for myself in self-defense. And you defend a guilty rabbit that needs to learn that it will never get away with everything. So… step ASIDE.” Fluttershy began to stand again, her courage regained. She began to intensify her Stare. However, it didn’t do a thing against Ear-Rape. “Find then. We’ll do this the HARD way. You want to know what it feels like to be on the receiving end of your Stare?” Ear-Rape’s Stare intensified to the point of feeling like a killing intent. When Fluttershy felt it, she began to choke and tear up. “Now you know why everypony; any species alike, coward before your Stare. Because it feels like you are the Alpha of everything. Well, I’m a force that not even the Alpha can control.”
Fluttershy fell to her knees and Angel went to her, trying to help her out. However, when he felt the killing intent, he began to coward like Fluttershy.
Bloodlust put his hoof on Ear-Rape's shoulder “Enough Ear-Rape. You got your revenge. Now stop.”
Ear-Rape stared for a few more seconds before he stopped his Stare. Fluttershy gasped for breath when he stopped. Ear-Rape turned around and began to walk away.
Everyone began to walk towards the ruins of the Golden Oaks Library. When they arrived, they see a Danny and a Charming holding a spell book, looking through the selection of spells. The Charming looked like the original but the only difference was that his cutie mark was the Element of Magic. The Danny looked like the original Danny but the only difference was that his cutie mark was the Element of Insanity and he was in his alicorn form.
Magic asked“Are you sure this is the right course of action, Insanity?”
Insanity said “Of course! My alicorn magic is more than enough to undo the damage. And I know millions of spells. So, give me a second…” Insanity looked at the spell book again and continue to flip them until he found what he was looking for. “Ah ha! Here it is!” Insanity closed the book and his ignited with power. He began to chant a spell and when he finished, he fired a beam of magic at the ruins. Suddenly, the place began to change and the ruins changed back to the Golden Oaks Library. Everyone (Except for Magic and Insanity) gasped in shock and surprise at the Golden Oak Library return. “See! I told you I could do it. While I’m no Discord or Bill Cipher, I can still get the job done.”
Magic asked “Who’s Bill Cipher?”
Insanity groaned in response.
Insanity replied “Let’s say he is like Discord (you would honestly mistake Bill Cipher for being related to Discord) but much worse and unpredictable. While Discord is as old as Chaos, Bill Cipher is over 1 trillion years old.”
Magic nodded in response and the others joined them. Insanity and Magic looked at them, they explain what’s going on, and they nod in agreement to follow them.
Rainbow asked “How are we going to find Loyalty and Cybernetics?”
Insanity replied “We won’t have to look far.”
Rainbow turned to him “What makes you say that?”
Insanity pointed towards Cloudsdale and indeed, there was flashing of lights up there. Those who didn’t have wings took the balloon; those who did have wings flew up to Cloudsdale. When they arrived to the Wonderbolt Academy, they see there was a big battle.
Brutalight asked “What is going on here?”
They looked closer and see the Wonderbolts, plus Loyalty, fighting three pony freaks along with Cybernetics.
Rainbine shouted “Hey; aren’t those three are Lightning Dustbine, Twily CODA, and Sonicbine!?”
Brutalight nods “Looks like it. What have they gotten themselves into now?”
Those four kept firing their weapons at them until Brutalight stopped them by firing a blast of her magic at the center of the battlefield. When they stopped, they all landed on the platform and walked over to them. Turns out that the Wonderbolts saw the arrival of Cybernetics and they thought he was a copy of me and wanted to kill him. Cybernetics used a wide-spread distress beacon and Twily CODA, Lightning Dustbine, and Sonicbine were the closest to his position and they lend him a helping hoof.
Loyalty looked like the original Charming but the only difference was that his cutie mark was the Element of Loyalty. Cybernetics looked like the original Danny but there were a few differences. Cybernetic’s ears were replaced by Earbuds, like Rainbine. His pupils were insanely small but the eye color remained the same. And finally; Cybernetic’s cutie mark was the Element of Cybernetics.
They left, leaving the Wonderbolts and the three cyborg pony freaks.
The Aspects of Harmony and Insanity
Twilight shouted in anger “Where are we going to find Courage and Nightmares!? They could be anywhere!”
They group walked into Twilight’s Castle and just as they see; they see Celestia, Luna, Cadence, Shining Armor, a Danny, and a Charming. The Danny looked like the original but the only difference was that his Cutie Mark was the Element of Nightmares. The Charming looked like the original Charming as well, but the only difference was that the Element of Courage was his cutie mark.
Luna asked “Care to explain why their elements are their cutie mark?”
Brutalight replied “Well, our search has ended.”
At that moment, the element clones came in and they grouped with their friend(s). Twilight explained what happened to the princesses and prince and they nodded in understanding.
Celestia asked “But how will Charming and Danny will be back?”
Her answer was answered when the two groups (The Element Copies of Charming and Danny) began to glow. They began to fly into the air and when they united again, there was two flashes of lights. One was white while the other was black. When the light ended, they looked and see in awe as they see both Danny and Charming as Alicorns. We opened our eyes and we looked at the nearest mirror. Charming instantly noticed that he was an alicorn. Charming wasn't so very thrilled to be an alicorn now, though.
Charming groaned "I can't believe I'm an alicorn now..."
I began to think about something before I get an idea.
"I could change that..."
We were in the Chronicler's Lair, along with Chrysalis and Meta.
Chrysalis said "I don't see why you called me here."
I ignored her comment and called forth a spell book. When the spell book arrived, I began to scan for the spell before I found it.
"Here it is. A self-transformation spell."
I showed it to Charming, who read the spell before casting it. His appearance turned back into a unicorn. He looked at himself at a mirror and found he was back into his Unicorn appearance.
Charming sigh with relaxation "Much better."
Twilight said with glee "Wow! I can't believe that Starswirl made that spell."
"Actually, he didn't." I looked towards Chrysalis. "Princess Papillon did."
Everyone gasped, including Chrysalis. She looked away, but she knew it was futile.
Charming asked "Who is Princess Papillon?"
"A poor hurt soul who sacrificed herself to save Ponyville over 1000 years ago. She accepted the role into becoming a Changeling Queen in order to save her friends. And the evil corrupted Changeling King transformed her beauty into a nightmare."
Upon hearing that, everyone but Chrysalis looked down in sadness.
"W-Where is she now?" Twilight asked.
"Why; she is closer than you think. Isn't that right," I looked at Chrysalis with a smirk "Papillon?"
Everyone turned to her, gasped of shock. Chrysalis looked to them before sigh and changing her appearance to her old pony look; Princess Papillon.
Celestia asked "P-Papillon? Is that... really you?"
Chrysalis looks at Celestia, tears from her eyes as well.
Chrysalis said with honesty "Yes... Tia."
They stared at each other's eyes for a few minutes before going to hug each other. Luna joined in and the three group hugged.
"Papillon was great friends with Celestia and Luna back when all three were fillies. They did all sorts of things together until it all ended when Papillon was turned into a Changeling."
When the three stopped, they looked at each other. I motion Charming and the others to follow me since they have so much to talk about.
Charming asked "What happens now?"
"Now? We go into peace until war calls us once again."
