Dimensions

"She does not pose any threat." Princess Celestia told the four ponies awaiting outside. "Why you would think she kidnapped someone, I do not know."

Lyra was breathing heavily, a vein had popped out of her head. She knew that Midnight had something to do with it. As for the other three, they were calm. They sat down and steadily held their ground, waiting for the order to leave her presence. Doctor Whooves glanced up at Lyra, who refused to sit with them, and told her to calm down.

"As soon as she came into the village, both Bon Bon and Colgate went missing!" Lyra protested. "You have to listen to me!"

"We are listening to you, Lyra." Twilight said, calmly. "But you have to understand; she's... Er... Helping us with the missing pony cases."

Lyra held her breath. "Um... B-But I'm sure-!"

"I think you should go home and get some rest." Cadence suggested. "Maybe the worrying has gotten to your head."

"I... I guess you're right..." Lyra looked to the ground, and then saw her friends get up. "We'll go home now."

"Sorry for, uh, bothering you." Berry Punch hiccuped. "See you around!"

With that, the four worried ponies trotted off. They seem convinced that Midnight had at least something to do with it. Discord stepped out, as he was told to stay inside, and put his hand on Twilight's head and leaned on her.

"So, what's the drama?" He asked cheerfully.

Twilight moved away from Discord. "Nothing. We should just focus on what comes next." She turned towards Celestia. "Midnight told us to preserve our powers. I suggest that we don't do anything with our magic; no levitating, no teleporting."

"And what about us?" Rainbow Dash asked, pointing at herself and Fluttershy.

"Midnight told you to... Er... Stretch your wings?" Twilight informed them. "So, yeah, do wing exercises or something. I'll do the same?"

"All right, nothing I don't do everyday!" Dash said proudly. "This is gonna be easy!"

"Do not underestimate what we may face." Celestia told Dash. "Midnight used the term... 'Judgement Day', correct?"

"Yeah, so?"

"Judgement Day; the end of the world..." Twilight defined. "For all we know, this could be Armageddon."

Applejack trotted a few inches away from them. "Ah'm gonna check on tha apple family. Ta check if they're all right."

"Good idea, darling." Rarity put her hoof to her chest. "We should all check on our families and friends. To make sure they haven't been taken! Oh, I hope Sweetie Belle is okay..."

"Yeah, I should check up on Scootaloo." Dash sighed, then puffed her chest up again.

Nodding their heads, everyone split up to check on their loved ones. Twilight already knew that Spike was all right, but she wanted to know if her mother and father is, so she sent a letter to them. She found out that writing with her hooves is extremely hard, so she just asked Spike to do it. Cadence checked up on Flurry Heart and Shining Armour, who she found out were secured in the Crystal Empire.

Rainbow Dash found Scootaloo, who was safely with the crusaders, so she went to find Applejack and Rarity, who already found their fillies and were having a snack in the Carousel Boutique. Fluttershy was hidden in her cottage, checking on all of her furry friends. Celestia and Luna wrote a letter to the Canterlot guards to tell them if anyone went missing.

Pinkie Pie checked on the Cakes, who were baking goodies in the kitchen whilst the twins were upstairs sleeping. She then bounced around Ponyville, counting all of the ponies and made sure no-one was missing. She already knew that her family was all right, because if they weren't then she would get a Pinkie sense, which she didn't.

As for Starlight, she wrote a letter to Sunburst to make sure that he was also okay. He was, thankfully, and then she wrote a letter to Trixie. She was delighted to know that her two best friends were okay. After that, she went back to Twilight's castle, were she met everyone standing there waiting for her. They had already checked on their loved ones.

Midnight paced around her broken shack, lifting up multiple books on the most powerful method to delete the glitch from existence. From black magic to rituals, she couldn't find anything strong enough to at least be able to paralyse Error Pinkie. She thought about if her own power was enough to stop her. Maybe she can get rid of some of Pinkie's coding? It should cause her to glitch out, but she decided to use that as a secret weapon if all else fails.

All of a sudden, Midnight's head jerked, and she fell backwards, hitting her head on the table and making a huge gash at the back of her head. Her eyes flickered in multiple colours, making anyone have a seizure if they saw it. Her cutiemark started glowing a faint grey colour, and her neck and hooves twisted like an owl's head.

After a while, her eyes went back to normal, and her cutiemark stopped glowing. She stood up, and twisted her head and hooves around in the correct position. Since she was half robot, she could survive a neck break and walk on broken hooves. She held the back of her head to stop the bleeding, as she was standing in a puddle of her own red liquid. Looking around, she knew what had gone wrong.

"You little bitch." She mumbled to herself. "You broke the anti-void, didn't you?"
