New allies come in all shapes sizes and species but sometimes an ally can come from an unexpected source.

On the blissful planet of United Equestria, where all creatures live together and homeworld of Starfleet, the most powerful fighting force in the Dimensional Universe, Lightning Dawn, a white alicorn with a brown mane and tail with a golden horn and Supreme Allied Commander of Starfleet was with his wife, Starla Shine, a white alicorn with a purple mane and tail, like Rarity and an expert of astronomy. The two were with their friends at the Cake's Cafe on a cloudy afternoon.

Major Fluttershy-- a yellow pegasus with a pink mane and tail with three butterflies as her cutie mark.

Major Rainbow Dash-- a light blue pegasus with a rainbow colored mane and tail with a cloud shooting a rainbow-colored lightning bolt from it as her utie mark.

Major Rarity-- fashionista, a similar look at Starla but her mane and tail were curly and Spike's wife.

Major Applejack-- an orange Earth Pony with a blonde mane and tail tied at the ends with a Stetson hat and three red apples as her cutie mark.

Major Pinkie Pie-- New Ponyvilles' party pony and a pink Earth Pony with a puffy, pink mane and tail, like cotton candy. And Finally, Spike aka, the Dragon Knight and Rarity's husband.

Buddy Rose-- a red alicorn and a very fine gardener in his normal life, as well as a great botanist, tree surgeon and ecologist. He lived on New Sweet Apple Acres in his own house and worked as hired help for Applejack and her family. His code: FT5H

Artie Bristles-- an orange alicorn whom outside of the battle field was a fine artist, painter, and sculptor. His Code: HV7J

Rhymey-- A yellow alicorn who spoke in rhyme. When not in battle, he loved writing poetry, singing songs, and managing his café and poetry society "Rhyme Time", but most of all he enjoyed spending quality time with his mare-friend, Fluttershy. His number even rhymed with the end of his name-- XL7Z

And the Spanish twins: Dyno and Myte LA Guava: Expert mining engineers, explosive experts, geologists, and construction workers from the planet El Mundo, who had a fine knowledge of explosives and work tools. Codes: IW8K and JX9L.

They were all hanging out in the cafe along with Mykan Stevens, a 19 year old, peach-colored human with short, brown hair. He was an axillary member of Starfleet, allowed to enter fights, but only if it was necessary.

"Hey Lightning, Hey Starla." Rainbow greeted.

"Hi Rainbow." Starla greeted back.

"So anything come up yet?" Pinkie asked.

Lightning sighed and shook his head, "No there's been no sightings of this mysterious figure and creature so far. All we know is that they were last scene heading this way."

"Oooh." Fluttershy shivered. "I hope they're not dangerous."

"We don't know if they are or not. All we can do is wait for them to show up." Starla stated. The others agreed. Suddenly, the alarms went off and at the same time, Lightning's longtime friend, Krysta showed up via warp portal. "Lightning! Lightning!" she screamed.

"Krysta, what's wrong?"

"It's the palace it's being attacked!" Everybody gasped in horror. "Take us there, now!" he snapped.

Krysta made another warp portal and the unit dashed through and were in New Canterlot. The shields were up around the buildings and there were no civilians on the streets. Hearing loud roars from above, the team looked up at the palace. "Galloping Galxies!" Buddy cried.

There were three creatures attacking the palace. They were all 7.6 feet tall and 95 feet long. Covered in spikes head to tail, resembling a giant gulper eel with bulging eyes, spiny face and six rows of rotating teeth in their mouths. No legs and only spikes decorating their undersides.

The team have never seen anything like them. "What are those things?!" Spike asked.

"Whatever they are, they're attacking the palace. Let's go!" Lightning snapped. The team flew up to the creatures and transformed.

"STARFLEET MAGIC!"

"HARMONY HOUR, FRIENDSHIP POWER!'

"DRAGON POWER!"

The Space Ponies scanned the creatures with their visors, but the results turned out “Creature: Unknown. No Available Data.”

“What, No data?” snapped Lightning. Two of them heard and spotted them and breathed out rings of fire from their mouths. "Watch it!" Applejack cried. The team dodged the attack and the Space Ponies attacked;

"STAR SHOWER!"

"PAINT BOMB!"

"DRILL QUILL!"

"BOOM-BOOM-ROCKETS!"

"LEAF SWARM!"

All the attacks combined seemed impressive but when they struck the creatures, they didn't seem fazed at all. "No even a scratch!" Mykan said. The creatures roared and flew away from the palace and burrowed into the mountain. "They can burrow?!" Pinkie cried.

"Apparently so." Rarity said. Then, they all heard a rumbling and the three creatures burst from the mountain once more and roared at them. "Alright time for he big guns." Lightning said and he fired his "UNIFORCE!"

KAPOW!! What an explosion. Everyone watched in such anticipation, but to their horror… the creatures were still flying in the air. "None of our attacks are doing anything to it!" Artie cried.

"We haven't tried everything." a voice said. The team looked behind them and saw two royal alicorns. The female wore a light golden gown with a white top showing her cutie mark of the sun.

The male was a tall, white male alicorn with a short dark mane with images of space flowing like a picture. He wore jewel-encrusted golden armor with doublets on each side into it, a red cape with gold markings fluttering on his back, even though there was no breeze. He had golden pegasus wings, black boots with golden edges round the feet. Atop his head were three golden horns, all shimmering like the stars.

They were Queen Celestia and Grand Ruler Celestio, the rulers of United Equestria and Co-Commander and Commander of Starfleet.

"Queen Celestia, Grand Ruler!" Lightning said.

"Girls, you know what to do." Celestia said to the girls. They nodded and called out their command, “VALKYRIA!!” and transformed into their Valkyries of Harmony.

"All together girls!" Celestia said. And together they unleashed, "HARMONY BEAM!" the large beam headed straight for the creatures, but they breathed rings of fire together at the blast an actually countered it, causing it to explode. The team was horrified. "Impossible! There seems to be no weakness with these creatures!" Grand Ruler cried.

The creatures roared and shot their spikes at the ponies. "Lookout!" Celesia cried. The ponies did their best to dodge but some of the spikes struck Lightning, his friends and the girls' energizers, powering their super suits down. "Uh-oh." Rainbow said. "Not good."

The three creatures roared and flew straight for the defenseless ponies. "We're goners!" Pinkie cried.

Suddenly...

"Plasma Blast!"

Three purple, spherical blasts hit the creatures and they stopped and looked in the air as well as the ponies. Swooping down towards the gang was a humanoid figure wearing a clock that covered his face and most of it's body. You could only see the hands and sneakers of the figure. The figure looked at have some sort of sword and shield on the back

She was riding a sleek creature that was 24 feet long with with lighter coloring and glimmering textures that include white, cream, and pink. It possessed a long, single spine running down the center of their back and light blue eyes. Also it had two pairs of ear-like appendages on the top of their heads and a pink-colored nose. The wingspan is about 42 feet long with no sharp tips at their ends. They are glittery white in coloration and have strips of glittery light pink running down their wings.

The tail flukes are triangular in shape, white in color, having two smaller triangular flukes just above the main ones.

"Is that the-?" Dyno started.

"Mysterious figure and creature!" Myte finished.

"Alright, girl. Let's get these pests out of here." The figure said in a feminine voice. The creature roared and blasted the creatures with her plasma blasts. The creatures roared and lunged at her. "Try this on for size." the figure said as it pulled out the metal shield, which started reflecting some light right into the creatures' eyes. The roared in dislike and flew away from the two. "Let's go girl." The creature obeyed and followed the three creatures and it's rider shinnied the light at the creatures. They chased them out of New Canterlot and the creatures flew far, far away.

"Good job, girl." The figure praised.

The creature smiled and flew back to Lightning and the others. They all landed at the front of the royal palace. "Who are you? And why did you help us?" Lightning interrogated.

Lightning approached the figure but her creature roared at him. "Easy girl, it's alright." the figure cooed. The creature listened but still growled at Lightning.

"I'm not gonna ask you again; Who are you?" Lightning asked again.

The figure untied it's cloak and let it fall to the floor. The entire gang gasped in awe at what they saw.

The figure turned about to be.... a human girl!

She was the same age as Mykan. She had long blonde hair and jean jacket with jeans and black sneakers. She looked to be in fairly good condition, except the dirt and scratches on her face. But what really shocked everyone was the fact that she had a pair of peach-colored wings and horn!

".... What's up?" she asked.

A moment of silence passed until...

"What just happened?" Pinkie asked.


The girl and her creature were brought in to the palace throne room. "So who are you?" Buddy asked.

"The name's Sapphire, pony." she hissed. "And this is my Light Fury Dragon, Snowflake." Snowflake growled at the ponies.

"So why did you help us?" Pinkie asked with suspicion.

"Obviously, you couldn't handle hose Whispering Death Dragons alone." Sapphire replied.

"Whispering Deaths?" Celesto asked.

"Very dangerous dragons that love to burrow underground."

"If they are so dangerous, then how did you get rid of them?" Rainbow questioned.

"By knowing the dragons' only weakness; Sunlight." Sapphire replied. "They absolutely hate it, which is why they are underground most of the time."

"Alright." Lightning said. "Speaking of dragons. What is Snowflake?" Artie asked.

"Snowflake is a Light Fury Dragon. Part of the Strike Class. She very fast and and extremely intelligent." Sapphire replied.

"Okay. With that out of the way, what are you two doing here anyway?" Starla added.

"Hiding." Sapphire replied.

"Hiding from what?" Applejack asked.

"My creators."

"CREATORS?!" The friends exclaimed. Sapphire nodded. "You see the ponies whom created me want to use me as a weapon for ponykind."

"A weapon?" Artie whispered. Hearing that made the friends very angry. Making a living creature whose purpose was only to kill. "But I didn't want to be used as weapon for anything. So one day I escaped from the ponies. Met Snowflake and we made our way here, eventually."

"So what should we do with them?" Lightning asked, turning towards their majesties.

"Well, since they do not appear to be a threat to us, I guess we can let them stay." Celestia said. Her husband agreed. "Sapphire, you and Snowflake will be staying with Mykan."

"Okay."

"I'll be housing a dragon?... Cool!" Mykan thought to himself.

Soon it was dusk and Sapphire and Snowflake entered Mykan's house. "You can sleep in my bedroom, Sapphire." he offered.

"Thank you." Snowflake still looked suspicious of Mykan. "It's alright, Snowflake. He a friend." Sapphire reassured. The Light Fury heed her riders' words and calmed down.

"Now come on girl, let's get some rest." Sapphire said. The Light Fury followed her upstairs into Mykan's bedroom and she crawled into bed. Snowflake layed on the left side of the bed and fell asleep as well as her rider. Outisde of the house, a figure was looking through the window at Sapphire. A small ball of light appeared in it's hand. "Time for her test." it said. The ball of light traveled through the wall and placed itself on Sapphire's chest, without her waking up. And the figure disappeared.


The sunshine came through Sapphire’s window on a bright beautiful morning but she wasn’t in the mood to wake up. “Five more minutes.” However, Snowflake was wide awake and she wanted her rider up and ready too. So she did what any dragon would do to wake up their sleepy rider... lick their face until he/she wakes up.

And It worked.

“Hehehe. Snowflake, stop, Hehehe.” Sapphire laughed but the Light Fury refused to stop until she was up and about. “Okay, Okay, I’m up. Happy?”

Snowflake nuzzled her rider, "I'll take that as a yes." Sapphire got up and went to the bathroom but when she turned on the light “What the-? MYKAN!”

Mykan immediately rushed into the bathroom. “What’s wrong Sa-“ Mykan gasped when he saw what she was talking about “I’ll go get Lightning and the others.”

Soon the whole team was at Mykan examining Sapphire “I just don’t understand it. How could Sapphire possibly get a energizer like us?” Lightning said. The energizer aka transforming badge was the marking of a Unicorn and a single wing. This meant she could now don on a super suit for battle and go into Battle-Mode.

The armor itself composed of a highly density polymerized alloy and infused with stardust and cosmic energies; making it hundreds of times stronger than diamond. Nothing could harm it under fifty-thousand degrees and would take a lot of power and strength just to dent it. It was also magically enchanted; it would amplify the wearer’s natural abilities, magic, and weapons, making them stronger and swifter than they were before.

The visors, now they were most important piece of equipment. Each visor had a set of various incredible functions.

-Heat sensory
-X-Ray
-Infrared vision
-Sound Scan
-Radar
-Telescopic magnification
-Medical scan
-Power scouting
-Database retrieval

Also, all Starfleet suits as well their fighters fought under a specific elemental or attributed force.

“But how did she get one in the first place?” Starla questioned.

“Thats the real mystery.” Buddy commented.

They saw Lightning writing something a piece of paper. “Lightning, What’s that?” Artie asked.

“A letter. Maybe their majesties know what’s going on.” He handed the letter to Spike. “Spike.” He nodded and sent the letter.

Just then, in a bright flash, their majesties appeared. “We got your letter Lightning.” Grand Ruler stated. “May we see Sapphire?”

Sapphire came before the royal couple and they both examined her insignia “Indeed this is no hoax. That’s a true Starfleet energizer.” Celestia confirmed. “But how she acquired this is beyond any of our knowledge.” Luna added.

Suddenly, a bright tube of light came in behind everybody. “What’s that?” Sapphire asked. Before anybody could answer and angel-corn (what ponies become when they die) appeared and everybody recognized the pony. “Twilight?!”

“Good morning everybody.” she greeted. “I see you all found my gift to Sapphire.”

“Your gift!” Rainbow exclaimed.

“You mean it was you who gave her the energizer.” Applejack added. Twilight nodded and everybody was both amazed and confused. “Why would you give her an energizer?” Fluttershy asked.

"This is part of her test." Twilight replied.

"A test?" Lightning asked.

"A test for what?" Grand Ruler added. Before Twilight could reply, ponies screams were heard from outside. “What’s that?” Celesto asked. Everybody went outside and saw to their horror; ponies were stuck in amber cocoons unable to move. Not only that, the amber was all over the place; on the houses and the streets. “What in the name of the galaxy happened here?” Buddy asked. The answer came when five new dragons landed before the group.

They were all 75 feet long and had a wingspan of 85 feet. They all had a long, slender body. Its body is very thin The dragons have striking and bright colors of blue, yellow, and orange on both its wings and its tail. They had spikes that run along their backs.

(Like this)

“What the heck are those things?!” Rainbow cried.

“Their Death Song Dragons!” Sapphire replied.

“Well let’s get them out of here!” Lightning snapped. The team nodded and they were about to transform when “Lookout!” Sapphire and Snowflake dove out of the way when the dragons released and amber-like liquid at the ponies and Mykan, trapping them all and it hardened quickly. “I.. Ugh.. can’t move!” Applejack cried.

Everybody tried to break free but it was in vain. “What is this stuff?” Mykan asked.

"It's their quick hardening amber. Almost impossible to break out of!" Sapphire called from her hiding place.

“It’s hard as a rock.” Dyno said.

“Si, really strong.” Myte added. Their majesties tried blasting the substance with their magic but it didn’t leave a mark. “Our magic does not work with this substance.” Celesto said.

“I think that’s the least of our problems.” Lightning said. Two of the Death Songs grabbed the team and their majesties in its mouth and, to Sapphire’s horror, flew off with them. “Sapphire, help!” Everybody cried. The other three Death songs grabbed the trapped citizens and flew off with them as well.

“Guys!” Sapphire could only watch as the Death Songs carried her friends and the civilians far away. “Oooh, How am I gonna save them?” she asked herself.

Twilight’s spirit appeared beside her. “By using your new energizer, that’s how.”

“But I’ve never used it before. I can’t battle four of those dragons by myself! Even with Snowflake, I'm outnumbered. I have an energizer I barely know how to use. I... wasn’t prepared for this.”

Music began playing in the background as Sapphire sang about her doubts.

https://m.

(Sapphire)
I was prepared to do my best
Thought I could handle any test
For I can do so many tricks
But I wasn't prepared for this

Creature knowledge would have been a breeze
Facts and figures I recite with ease

(Sapphire)
I could ace a quiz on creature’s bliss
But I wasn't prepared for this
Will I fail, or will I pass?
I can't be sure...

(Twilight)
She can't be sure...

(Sapphire)
My mind is sharp, my skills intact
My heart is pure...

(Twilight)
Her heart is pure...

(Sapphire)
Oh, I've taken my share of licks
I've made it through the thin and thick
But no I wasn't

(Twilight)
Oh no, she wasn't

(Sapphire)
Oh no, I wasn't

(Twilight)
Oh no, she wasn't

(Sapphire)
No I wasn't

(Both)
Prepared... for this!

The song ended and Twilight came up to Sapphire. “I know you have your doubts, Sapphire. But I know you can save them.”

“How?”

“Because you’re smart, brave and loyal. You know a lot about the dragons than your friends do. Use that knowledge to save them.” Sapphire thought about what she said.

“Use you’re knowledge well to save your friends. I must go now. Remember what I said.” Twilight floated into the air and vanished.

Sapphire just stood their for a moment until Snowflake nuzzled her for comfort. "I know girl, I'm worried about them too. But we don't know where those Death Songs took them to." That's when another roar was heard. Turning around, Sapphire and Snowflake turned around and saw a bird-like dragon: it is bipedal, possesses winged forelimbs, and is about the same size as medium-sized theropod dinosaurs such as Allosaurus. Its small yet keen eyes, equipped with poor binocular vision, are one of the tools it uses to stalk its targets.

This one was very colorful with a beige underbelly and colorful spines on it's prehensile tail. Ringing its skull is a crown of spikes. Coating the tail is a series of spines that can inject venom into a target. When relaxed, its head spikes and venomous tail spines lay flat "Woah, a Deadly Nadder Dragon." Sapphire gasped.

(One to the far right)

The Nadder looked around the area and saw Sapphire and Snowflake. Seeing the Nadder and knowing that they had an excellent sense of smell, Sapphire got a plan. Slowly approaching the Nadder she said, "Hey there girl." The Nadder raised the spikes on it's tail and roared at Sapphire.

"Easy girl." she cooed. "I'm not gonna hurt you." Moving forward, she got within the Nadder's blind spot; directly in front of it's nose and she began scratching the Nadder underneath it's chin. The dragon smiled and rubbed against Sapphire. "That's it, girl. Now, I need your help."


Meanwhile in a cave in the New Everfree Forest, the Death Songs had placed all the captured ponies in one corner of the cave. Lightning and the others tried once again to break free from the amber. "Ugh... it's no use. This amber is too strong." Lightning sighed.

"Wh-What are they gonna do to us?" Fluttershy whimpered.

"I don't know, but we need to get out of here." Buddy said.

"Ummm, hello. We're trapped in here and there's no one else that can save us." Rainbow grumbled.

"Sapphire can." Starla said. "She dealt with those other dragons like it was nothing."

"But that doesn't mean she'll get rid of these things that easy." Rainbow replied.

"We just have to hope she can." Grand Ruler said.

Meanwhile, the Deadly Nadder, which Sapphire had come to name, Skystorm, lead her and Snowflake to a cave in New Everfree Forest. Slowly walking in the cave, Sapphire lit her horn, lighting up the cave. Sapphire and the dragons saw some bones on the floor. "...Dragon bones." she whispered. Snowflake growled softly. Further walking through the cave, the three came to a large chamber. Scanning the chamber, Sapphire saw the civilians and her friends in the far corner. The Death Songs were thankfully asleep, but were in the middle of the chamber! “Oh boy, how am I gonna get the dragons away from them and free the ponies?" Sapphire asked herself. "I know that the Death Songs Amber is weak to Monstrous Nightmare fire. My sword can produce it but it'll take forever for me to free all those ponies and Mykan one-by-one."

Skystorm nudged her energizer. “My energizer? Well... It’s worth a shot.” She took a deep breath and tapped the insignia and softly called out, ”STARFLEET MAGIC!”

In a bright glow she transformed into a peach colored super suit. It looked like Lightning and his teams’. "Woah, awesome. Alright, now to get those Death Songs out of the chamber. But how?"

Snowflake carefully walked to edge of the entrance. "Snowflake what are you doing?" The Light Fury roared loudly into the cave, catching prisoners attention and waking the Death Songs. “What was that?!” Lightning cried. The Death Songs flew into the tunnel to investigate. The trio hid inside a tunnel and when the Death Songs were gone, Snowflake, Skystorm and Sapphire saw their chance and rushed into the chamber and to the corner. “SAPPHIRE!” The team cried with joy. Sapphire rushed towards her friends. “Are you guys alright?”

“Yeah, were okay.” Lightning replied. “Just get us out of this stuff before those.. things come back!” Rarity begged.

"Right." Sapphire said. She wielded her sword and set it aflame. Sticking the blade into Lightning's cocoon, she found the weak spot and the whole thing fell apart. "Great." Lightning said. She went on to her friends and then the civilians. "Umm, Sapphire? What do those Death Songs do with their prey afterwards?" Rainbow asked as she was freeing her from the cocoon.

"Well, after that the Death Songs would break them out and eat them, only leaving the bones." Sapphire said nonchalantly. The ponies and Mykan's eyes widened in fear. Soon, Sapphire freed all the prisoners. “Thank the stars.” Grand Ruler exclaimed.

“Come on!” Lightning snapped. Everyone rushed towards the tunnel, but before they could all escape the five Death songs returned and surrounded the ponies. They were all growling at the ponies. Snowflake and Skystorm roared back at them. The first Death Song was blocking the exit! “Oh great, what now?” Rainbow whimpered. Snowflake and Skystorm roared at Sapphire and nodded towards the Death Songs. “Let’s do it!”

“Do what?” Applejack asked as Sapphire mounted the Snowflake. “You guys get the ponies to safety, I’ll take care of the Death Songs.”

“You mean.” Lightning started. Sapphire nodded. “I’m gonna battle them.” All the ponies gasped in horror. “You can’t be serious! Those ghastly things are dangerous!” Rarity cried.

“I have no choice. I’ll be fine. Get the civilians to safety.” Sapphire said. “Let’s go girl.” Snowflake roared and she along with Skystorm took to the sky. The Death Songs released the amber from their mouths but the dragons dodged it and flew in between them. The Death Songs roared in anger and flew after them. “Alright, let’s go!” Celesto snapped.

Everybody ran out of the cavern and through the forest until they were all safety back in New Ponyville. “Phew... that was a close one.” Dyno said.

“Si, too close.” Myte added.

“I just hope Sapphire’s alright.” Fluttershy added. Everybody hoped for that as well.


Meanwhile, Snowflake was diving in and out of the trees trying to lose the four Death Songs. “These guys won’t give up!” Sapphire cried in fear. Snowflake and Skystorm dodged the Death Songs attempts to trap them in the amber. “Good dodging, girls.” Skysorm fired her spines at the dragons and Snowflake shot bursts of spherical purple-colored flames at the Death Songs, however they dodged every single one. “Not good.”

Two Death Songs blasted amber again and this time it made direct contact, trapping Sapphire, Snowflake and Skystorm. The three fell from the sky. “HANG ON!”

CRASH!

The three crashed into the ground and slid for about three feet. “Ugh... Skystorm, Snowflake, you alright?” The two dragons roared. “Good.” That’s when the five Death Songs landed near the downed trio. “Uh-oh.” Sapphire whimpered. Snowflake and Skystorm softly roared in fear as well. The Death Songs approached the three, ready to eat them.


At New Ponyville, Lightning, his team and their majesties were looking for any sign of Sapphire and the dragons. “Where are they?” Pinkie asked. “They should have appeared by now.”

"Let me go see." Rainbow flew into the sky and flew over New Everfree Forest. From the air she could see Sapphire and the dragons trapped in the amber, surrounded by the Death Songs. She gasped and zipped back to the others. "Guys!"

"What is it, Rainbow?" Applejack asked.

"Sapphire and the dragons are trapped and the Death Songs are about to eat them!"

“WHAT!” Everybody snapped.

"Ay' Curumba!" the twins cried.

“Let’s go!” Lightning added. The gang flew off and got to the forest and came to the scene. “There they are!” Mykan called, pointing towards the clearing. They all saw the Death Songs surrounding Sapphire and the dragons. "Let's move!"

The Death Songs licked their teeth, looking forward to their meal. Sapphire gulped nervously at the sound of their stomachs growling. “Gulp... guys where are you?” Sapphire whispered. The Death Songs opened their mouths and Sapphire closed her eyes.. ”UNIFORCE!” out of nowhere, a golden blast of magic hit one of the Death Songs. Sapphire opened her eyes, “Lightning!”

The team flew down blasting the dragons with their attacks.

”DRILL QUILL!”

“PAINT BOMB!”

“STAR SHOWER!”

The blast made the dragon and back off. Dyno and Myte landed near the trapped duo. “Hang on chicas.” Dyno said.

“We’ll get you out.” Myte added. Together they unleashed their ”BOOM-BOOM FLARE!” and freed the three. They shook for the amber. “Thanks boys.” Sapphire mounted Snowflake and they flew in to the air. The team and their majesties blasted the Death Songs driving the five dragons far away. Next, they went to check on Sapphire and her dragons. “Sapphire, are you okay?” Mykan asked. “Any injuries?”

“Yeah,I'm okay. So are Snowflake and Skystorm.” The dragons roared emphasizing her statement. “Come on let’s go home.” Celestia added. “You and your dragons need a check up after that Sapphire.”

“Yes your majesty.”


The gang took Sapphire and the dragons to the royal sickbay for an evaluations. They all checked out okay. After that, they were all called to the throne room. When they entered they saw the room crowded with ponies and other creatures from dragons to griffins and minatours. Lightning and their majesties were in standing in front of Celesto and Celestias’ respective thrones. That caught them all by surprise. “So what’s this about?” Sapphire asked.

"Sapphire Shimmer, Snowflake, Skystorm, please step forward.” Celesto ordered. The three walked up to their majesties. Celestia began to speak. “We are gathered here today, to honor the heroism of Sapphire Shimmer and her dragons for single handedly rescuing us twice from dangerous situations.”

Luna then spoke “By preforming such a brave and noble deeds we are extremely proud and honored to present them both with the United Equestrian Pink Hearts of Courage.”

The crowd cheered loudly as Grand Ruler levitated the medal over Sapphire, Snowflake and Skystorm's necks. Sapphire smiled.

“We have another reason for gathering here today.” Grand Ruler added. The crowd was confused as well as Lightning and all his friends, who were at the front of the crowd. “Sapphire, due to your incredible act of bravery and your willingness to never give up when your friends were in great peril you have proven to me and everybody else what kind of person you are; strong, brave and truly magical.

Which is why as Commander of Starfleet, I hereby dub Sapphire Shimmer, the newest member of Lightning's Starfleet unit as a Lieutenant!”

The crowd burst into extreme joy and glee. Pinkie and Rainbow were jumping up and down with joy while the others just cheered. Celesto levitated her insignia/ energizer onto her chest and placed it there. Sapphire gave a cheeky smile. Snowflake and Skystorm nuzzled their rider.

Now she was the newest member of the Starfleet.

When the ceremony was over, she was approached by his friends. “Alright Sapphire!” Rainbow exclaimed. “You’re a Lieutenant now!”

“Way’d a go!” Mykan added.

“We’re so proud of you, darling.” Rarity added.

Lightning approached Sapphire. “Welcome to the team, Sapphire.” He saluted to Sapphire and she saluted back. That’s when the girls and Spike began singing.
