Twilight, Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack and Rainbow Dash go to defeat the cult of laughter once and for all, along with the leader who was once their dearest friend.

This is an unofficial sequel to the Animation Equestria divided: Reunited by space oddpony,

Due to a last minute spell cast by Rarity ]in the nick of time, Twilight, Rarity, Fluttershy did not die, but they must now act quickly to defeat the cult of laughter once and for all. They may have had their final stand but with the new spell and some help, they've now got only one more chance to stop pinkie and her cult of laughter so they can restore peace to the forsaken land that is now ruined by strife and civil war.

Although, the original animation is related to mortal Kombat, the actual story and animation has little to do with it, besides the mane 6 sharing some similarities with the characters in mortal Kombat, so it will not have a crossover tag
edit 13th June 2018: added a drama tag, removed mane 6 tag and added a Fluttershy tag.

check out his guy's animations, they're really good.

Chapter 1, Reunited, the immediate aftermath:

Twilight gasped, she had gasped as if she’d been thrown into a freezing lake and had been fished out. She looked around and in complete shock saw Applejack and Rainbow Dash lying down on the floor separated from the smooth, cold tiles by two white carpets that were acting as temporary mattresses. She saw that they had gone through sickening trauma; Applejack’s neck was in a brace, Rainbow Dash had a stab wound through chest as if she’d been stabbed by a short, sharp, shard-like dagger through her chest. Twilight took note of all these details, but her mind was occupied by pinkie pie’s laugh, oh how evil, demented and infected with insanity her laugh was right before she slit her neck and supposedly murdered her.

“Clip-clop” the sound of someone clopping on the nearby corridor immediately alerted Twilight and put her on guard and edge, her shock at not being deceased had given way to an urgent need to protect herself and her friends; she at first stood over Dash and Applejack to make sure she could protect them from whoever it was: she decided to then clip-clop as quietly as possible and readied a sharp dagger she had found on the floor in anticipation. Her breathing got heavy in anticipation of the confrontation, she tried to regulate her breath but couldn’t as she stood in silent terror imagining what was to come from this, their final stand had affected her emotionally, and was somewhat unstable for the time being, she waited. She heard them coming and made her move, she jumped ready to stab but before she could she screamed “RARITY, FLUTTERSHY, APPLE BLOOM!” in complete shock, aghast, she fell to the floor unconscious.

She woke up in what felt to her like 2 minutes but had noticed that the sun had fallen in the time she was unconscious. She woke up and saw Rarity, Fluttershy and Apple Bloom staring over her anxiously “Thank goodness you’re okay!” said Fluttershy in relief.

“you were scared half to death by us Twilight,” said Rarity.

“Y- y- you’re supposed to be dead, and you too, she motioned to Fluttershy, and them she motioned to the others,” Twilight said in almost denial.

“We’ll explain to you later but right now you need to eat” Fluttershy reassured twilight.

Twilight tried to deny that she was hungry but there stomach rumbled with hunger, she conceded and went along with them.

As they walked through the corridors, she stared at Rarity’s ice covered cheeks and sideburns, and Fluttershy’s growth of moss going down in a line on her face; she was still shocked that they were alive, she and saw them die. She though that she had died at the hooves of that evil maniacal cult leader. Pinkie Pie had been infected with a parasite that drove her to insanity, she led her horrid cult to do horrible unspeakable things, Big Mac had been impaled as she told Apple bloom and Granny smith to run away. They murdered Celestia and Luna and ate their horns and intestines to attempt to gain their knowledge and wisdom, as if they had any, Twilight bitterly thought to herself. Celestia and Luna had let Equestria fall apart and exiled her and the rest of the mane 6, pinkie not included, for speaking out against their reign, they then turned on each other as the situation got worse and declared a war that led to the wasting of thousands of lives, Pinkie and her cult took advantage and pretended to help both of them by sending her minions to fight with both of them, they deceived the two into an area where they fought and weakened each other and the minions then made quick work of their armour. When the realised that they couldn’t attain any knowledge or wisdom, they massacred everyone in Canterlot, only her friends who where away at the time where still alive at the end of the massacre. Many of the survivors grouped with each other and united for self-defence since they couldn’t find where the cult was based until Rarity did where she fought her and supposedly died, then we fought her and all supposedly died.

They reached an empty room where one plate of soup and a loaf of bread were layed out on a table. She sat down and began to eat, the soup was Lentil soup and the bread sent well with it. She looked at the three and realised that Apple Bloom now looked like a different pony, the innocent child she’d known had turned into an unrecognisable soldier. After what happened to her and Big Mac, she banded together with the other CMC’s and started to sabotage the cult from the inside, the things she had seen in there should not have been seen by anypony, let alone a filly. This cult had ruined most of them.

“How come you’re not dead, Rarity?” asked Twilight in a less than friendly tone.

“After I found Pinkie’s headquarters, I cast a special spell in the case we were defeated it was a spell that transported us to here before Pinkie could turn us into one of those wretched minions. The blue gunk that came out of my body that you thought was blood was actually special potion I had mixed with my blood that I put in a bag on so that when Pinkie supposedly killed me she wouldn’t suspect anything as it would look like I was bleeding, the potion turned the ground into a space for the teleportation spell to start and it ended here, that’s why when Fluttershy got sucked underground she didn’t get injured and just came out right here she then healed me as I was unconscious and we waited for you and the others. The teleportation spell I used also makes a duplicate cadaver in the place of teleport, that’s why this kind of teleportation spell isn’t commonly used. Pinkie is now convinced that she did her job and we’ve turned into one of her disgusting minions” Rarity then went more in depth into explaining the intricacies of the spell as Twilight went on eating.

“So we now need to regroup and finish her off now? Right?” Twilight asked.

“That is the plan,” said Rarity.

Twilight then got up and slapped Rarity then shouted “That’s for making me think you were dead!”

Rarity was expecting this and stood strong she then sternly told her “Shout at me when the cult is taken out, we don’t have time for this right now,”

Twilight realised that she was right and then said “okay, fine Rarity, but don’t ever endanger the rest of them ever again you hear me, you scum?”

Rarity said softly and dangerously “Don’t call me scum” the situation got dangerous as they began to reach for their weapons.

“Stop it everyone, we have a job to do” Fluttershy intervened with. “Stop this nonsense immediately”.

The two then complied after seeing her death glare.

Chapter 2, the news:

After their argument, Rarity decided to call it quits for the night and for them to go to bed, but right before they went, Twilight asked “one last question Rarity, where are the rest of the crusaders?”

Rarity answered “They are looking to find the rest of our agents and spies in the field, so we can regroup, Applebloom’s here because she found the agent we were looking for and has learned supposedly learned some important information.”

Twilight then asked suspiciously “what agent and what information?”

Rarity then answered with simply “tomorrow”.

Twilight wouldn’t take no for an answer, “What is it?”

Rarity then sternly said “I will tell you tomorrow and that’s final!”

Twilight conceded and then went to bed, as she got into the bed she thought about all that had happened since three years ago, they had actually all been at war with each other; after their exiling: they tried to stay together, but the lack of resources began to push them apart until they all separated, and formed their own tribes, in the freezing cold of the north, Celestia and Luna in all their complete idiocy exiled hundreds maybe thousands there, and the resources were very lacking to say the least and their were many battles and skirmishes between ourselves with our tribes, Twilight was with Fluttershy, Applejack and Rainbow Dash had teamed up together and Rarity was by herself, they fought each other’s clans many times, and eventually Rarity controlled most of the resources and exiles and was on the verge of defeating the rest of them, they then came to an agreement after they heard of what was happening in Equestria, to put their hostilities on hold at least until they had killed Pinkie, and returned to Equestria, they had plans to divide up what was left among us and the exiles once the cult of laughter was gone forever.

Their work together had rekindled their friendship and they all worked together to find Pinkie and her cult: they did find her and they made a plan, they knew that there was a good chance that she would kill them all, so Rarity who was the most powerful of them at the time would fight Pinkie and if Pinkie wasn’t defeated they would all rush her and defeat her, it didn’t work and they all “died” but Rarity had cast that spell that she didn’t tell them about, and in the end saved them. With their supposed deaths, Pinkie now thought she had taken them out and Twilight feared that she was now going to rampage across equestria and ‘convert’ everyone else. “They needed to act quickly,” Twilight thought before she fell asleep.

The next day she woke up to a ray of sunlight landing on her, it couldn’t have been more than 7 A.M. the sun fell and rose with no help because When the princesses die, the ability gets passed oan to the monarch of another kingdom. Anyway, Twilight left the room and reached the room she’d had dinner in last night. There was some activity, with Rarity and Fluttershy reading something, they looked distressed, Apple Bloom was nowhere to be found, Twilight then asked them in a tone full of dread “is something wrong?”

They looked at her and said grievingly “Applejack and Rainbow Dash didn’t make it,”

It took a few moments for her to realise what they’d said and then exclaimed “What do you mean their dead!?”

Rarity said: “Their injuries where too much, Fluttershy tried as hard as possible to save them but it was too much for them and they passed while you were asleep.”

Twilight stumbled hard and almost hit her head on the floor, her breathing became rough and quick as if the world was stealing the Oxygen from the air around her “How could this have happened?” “we were so close,” she thought.

A few minutes later, she was barely able to coherently form and sputter her next question “where’s Apple Bloom?”

“She went outside to grieve” they both replied.

Twilight then made a decision, “I’m going outside to see her,” she told them and headed off to the outside.

Once Twilight reached Apple Bloom outside she saw her holding something in her hoof: Twilight then realised that it was Applejack’s hat, she put her hoof on Applebloom’s nape, she looked behind her to see who it was and said “who goes there?” then, “Oh wait it’s you Twi,” Apple Bloom said to Twilight.

Apple Bloom was clearly grieving, she had had tears in her eyes, she talked as if she'd had a coughing fit, she was a mess, so Twilight decided to tell her about other things to try to get her mind off of her sisters passing “the weather is very nice today, especially for June, it even rained last night,” Twilight knew that the topic was very generic and not even compelling enough for most ponies to warrant a reply, there was no way that it was enough to distract her.

But to her surprise she answered back “I remember the last time it rained in June, it had rained the night before, me and Big Mac had gone into the orchards to collect some equipment, Big Mac slipped in the mud after I pushed him, he then pulled me down and we played in the mud, we were so dirty by the end of it,” she said with a chuckle. “Applejack had been happy for the rain because our irrigation system was broken and we were trying to fix it so the plants wouldn’t die, she had cared so much about those kind of things.” she said.

The two then went on to reminisce about Applejack for several more hours until it had gotten too dark to stay out. They then went back into their base, and there was a noise, she could hear Rarity and Fluttershy were talking to an unfamiliar voice, Twilight and Apple Bloom then both panicked and grabbed their weapons and went into the room expecting a flight, instead Twilight dropped her knife when she saw who it was, and shouted “Shining Armour!”.

Author's Note

I decided to take some liberties with the mlp world in Equestria divided, the world was never really expanded on in the animations, so I decided to add quite a bit more details to it, I'm trying to make out Equestria in this future timeline as a nation that has completely fallen apart and the magic of friendship failed, and they're now picking up the pieces to try to rebuild, that is after they kill Pinkie after all.
