In the magical world of United Equestria, Starfleet, the most powerful fight force in the Dimensional Universe resigns as well as five powerful Alicorns. Two for the day. One for the night. One for family and then there’s me, Princess Sapphire Sunlight, the Princess of Friendship. It is my royal duty to make sure everyone in Equestria feels like they belong. It’s a lot’s of live up to. I mean, Princess? Luckily I have amazing friends who are there for me no matter what. I know with my friends by my side, I can be the Princess everyone wants me to be. But some things you just can’t prepare for.

Now on with the main movie plot!

I was in the halls of the Canterlot Palace, being calm. “Ooommm… Oooommm… My goodness! I can’t handle this!” I stated in a panicked tone. “Alright, alright.. Get it together. Just go in there and ask. This is your Friendship Festival. Everyone’s happiness rest in your hands.” … Yeah that pep talk to myself did not do anything to help me. “Ooooh.” I groaned. The door opened and out came Spike, Pony Twilight’s dragon assistant. “Alright, Sarah, I have all your charts and graph.”

“Oh thank goodness, you’re here Spike. I’m just so nervous about this meeting.” I said.

“What are you talking about?” Spike asked.

“I’m about to ask the most royal ponies in Equestria a huge favor. What if they reject me?” I asked.

“I’ll be fine. Just remember the most important thing.”

“... Smile?” I suggested, giving him and large a somewhat creepy smile. “Uh..no.” he said. “You’re a Princess too.”

“...Right!” I said. I took a deep breath and pushed opened the doors to the throne room, seeing the royal party. Grand Ruler Celesto, Queen Celestia, Princess Luna, Princess Cadence and Commander Lightning Dawn. “Good morning, everyone. Thank you all for seeing me. I have an idea that I think will make our Friendship Festival the most wonderful celebration Equestria has ever seen!”

“Yes, Sapphire! We are very excited!” Celestia said.

“Ponies have been arriving from all over all morning.” Cadence added.

“I'd like to think it's to see us, but Songbird Serenade might be the bigger attraction.” Luna stated.

“Yes, she is the... "mane" event!” I giggled a little. “And to make it extra special, I could use your help. Spike?”

Spike rolled out a large white board and as I talked Spike drew out everything. “Songbird Serenade's performance is not scheduled to start until after you begin the sunset. And based on my precise calculation, to get the very best lighting for the stage, Princess Celestia, I was hoping you could make sure the sun stays about 28.1º to the south, and, Princess Luna, if you could raise the moon 62º to the north at the same time, it would reflect the sunlight on the other side and really frame the entire stage perfectly!”

“I…” Luna stuttered.

“But wait! There's more! Cadance, if you could use your crystal magic to create an aurora above the stage, the sun and the moon will shine through it and create a truly amazing light show!”

“Presenting Songbird Serenade!” Spike cheered holding a little stick with Songbird Serenade’s sticker on it. “Ta-da…”

“So you're saying you want us to move the sun and the moon for the party?” Luna asked.

“Well, I'd do it myself, except I don't have your magic.” I laughed nervously. Grand Ruler and Queen Celestia came up to me, “Sapphire, each of us uses our powers to serve Equestria in our own way. You are the Princess of Friendship. You already have all the magic you need.” Celestia said to me

“So... that'd be a no?” I questioned.

Third Person POV

Meanwhile the Mane 5, Human Starfleet gang and adults were getting everything ready for the Friendship Festival. Sapphire had placed special ribbons on her human friends so they don't get confused with their pony counterparts.

The two Rainbow Dash had finished clearing the clouds. “Skies clear and ready for the festival.” they zipped down and saw the two Raritys placing diamonds on the ribbons. The Pinkies were blowing up balloons for the party. Sci-Twi, Mr. Grandruler, Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna were making sure everything was in tip top shape. Dean Cadence and Shining Armor were laying against the stage out of the way. Pony Applejack came over with Applejack hauling a large barrel of apple cider. “Anypony up for some free samples of my family's apple cider?” she asked aloud.

Pony Rainbow grinned and zipped over, “Thank you.” and zipped back. “Love’d it.”

The two Applejacks admired the Raritys work. “Wow. It's a fine job you're doin' there. 'Course it might not get done 'til after the concert.”

“Yeah, Songbird Serenade will love it.” Human Rarity added.

“Applejack anypony can do "fine". Sapphire asked us, so clearly, she's going for fabulous, and fabulous takes time.” Rarity said.

“Fabulous takes forever!” The two Rainbows whined, “But "awesome"...” they both flew past the stage, putting the diamonds on the ribbons in a sloppy manner. She returned to Raritys’ side. “...can get done in four seconds flat! Faster if I do my sonic rainboom!”

“Aah! No, no, oh no! Don't you dare, Rainbow Dash! It looks wretched enough already.” Human Rarity exclaimed.

"It looks fine." Human Rainbow Dash said.

“If you were raised in a barn! Ahem, no offense, Applejack.” Rarity said.

“None taken. Especially since I wasn't raised in a barn. My family just happens to have a barn. Where I was born. And... spent most of my formative years…” Pony Applejack stated.

“Raised in a barn!” Rainbow and Human Rainbow said quickly in unison.

POV Ends

Then, I came over with Spike holding a list with my hands, “Okay, just two hundred and eighteen things left to do and we're ready.”

“Hey Sapphire.” All my friends greeted.

“So how’d it go with the royal ones? Did they like your idea?” Pony Applejack asked.

“I bet they loved it!” The Pinkies called out in the background. I sighed, “Not exactly. They think I can make today perfect without their magic.”

“And they are absolutely right.” Dean Cadence said. “Yeah, this festival was you brilliant idea and we all know your up the task.” I still wasn’t convinced. “Are you sure?” I asked. All my friends nodded. That’s when the Dazzlings, Vulcan and the minions onto the scene. "i see everything is in order here." Vulcan said.

"And the stage looks gorgeous." Marla said with her eyes sparkling. The boys sighed.

That’s when Pony Pinkie grabbed my face and literally smashed it against hers. “Sapphire, look at me! This will be the biggest celebration Equestria has ever seen! As the Princess of Friendship, you cannot fail! This day will define who you are! The pressure is intense! It's almost too much for any single pony to handle!” She then screamed and ponies nearby gasped.

“Too far, Pinkie. Too far.” Pony Rainbow said.

I blinked twice and Pinkie hopped off of me. “But you have us. So stop worrying.” she said. Music started playing as I smiled nervously and Human Applejack helped me up.

(Applejacks)
It's time to show 'em what you've got

(Raritys)
It's time to go and get things done

(Fluttershys)
But you don't have to do it on your own

(Pinkie Pies)
'Cause you've got friends right here to make it fun

Human Rainbow grabbed me and took me into the sky.

(Rainbow Dash)
Sometimes the pressure gets you down
And the clouds are dark and grey
Just kick them off and let the sun shine through

And scary as it seems, more help is on the way
'Cause friends have friends that wanna help out, too

(Rainbow Dash and Wonderbolts)
We got this, you got this
We got this together

(Crowd)
It's the Festival of Friendship
And we can get it done
A festival that they won't forget

A party to be proud of
A day of games and fun
Just you wait and see
A magic day in perfect harmony

(Fluttershy and Principal Celestia )
You got this

(Bird)

(Applejack and Apple family)
'Cause you got us to pick up the slack
We got this

(Big McIntosh)
Eeyup!

(Apple family)
We got this together

(Pony Rarity and Marla)
Pay attention to the details
Every gem even-spaced

(Spike the dragon)
Takin' one or two to taste

He took one of the gems and at them

(Marla)
Inside and out, beautiful throughout
Generosity is what we're all about

(Spike)
(mouthful) You got this

(Rarity and Marla)
You got this

(All three)
We got this together

I flew into the sky, overlooking the area.

(Me)
Today needs to be perfect, it all comes down to me
I don't know if I'm ready
For all the things they need me to be
I am the Princess of Friendship
But that is more than just a crown
It's a promise to bring creatures together
And never let anybody down!

(Pinkie Pie and Lightning)
We've got an awful lot to bake
Each pony needs a piece of cake
Oh, wait! There's something better we can do

We're gonna need some more supplies
To make a really big surprise
She'll be so shocked
She's sure to love it, too!

You got this!
We got this together!

(All)
It's the Festival of Friendship
Together we are one
A day we will never forget

And now everything is ready
So when the day is done

(Rainbow Dash and Celesto)
The weather

(Applejack and Shining Armor)
The banquet

(Rarity and Cadence)
The style

(Fluttershy and Marla)
And music

(All)
All will be in perfect harmony!

Suddenly, I heard a large ‘POP’ sound behind me. I turned around and look up… only to be consumed by giant cake pieces.

“Oh dear!” Rarity exclaimed. I popped my head out, “Pinkies!” and a lit candle landed on my head. The two Pinkies popped out of her cannon, “Oops sorry, guess my large party cannon needs a little more fine tuning.” Pony Pinkie admitted. “Sorry.” Human Pinkie apologized. I only groaned. I walked out of the cake and cleaned myself just as ponies were whispering.

“Songbird Serenade, is it really her?”

“It is, It is.”

Through the crowd came two bodyguard ponies and in the middle was a beige pegasus pony with a tan and black mane and tail. The mane covered her eyes and she was wearing a black jacket. “Hi, I’m looking for the pony in charge.” she asked. Cameras flashed and she did a few poses. “I need to get ready for my soundcheck.”

“Songbird Serenade!” I called. “Hi, my name is Sapphire and I’m the human in charge.”

“Ah good-” Before she could continue, there was a the sound of thunder. We all looked up and saw dark clouds coming over and filling the air. “Storm clouds?” Luna asked.

“Rainbow Dash?” I asked.

“Uh, I don't’ think those are storm clouds.” Pony Rainbow said.

“Yeah. I have a bad feeling about those clouds.” Lightning said.

“Me too.” Human Starla said.

Then a weird looking airship came out of the cloud.

“Ooh! I bet those are the clowns I ordered!” Pony Pinkie cheered, but when the ship got closer she added, “...Or definitely not the clowns I ordered. The airship was stationed right in front of us and broke of the thin pillars. A walk path came out and out came a small hedgehog carrying a loudspeaker and a mic. The hedgehog cleared his throat and said, Ponies of United Equethtria, we come on behalf of the fearsome, the powerful, the almighty...Storm King!

I narrowed my eyes a little as the rest of my friends started in concern and suspicion. The hedgehog continued, “And now, to deliver the evil, evil methage, put your hooves together for Commander Tempeeeetht!”

We heard footsteps and out came a unicorn mare wearing gray armor. She had a scar over her left eyes and… she had a broken horn!

Most of the ponies gasped, ”What the-?” Lightning asked.

“Is that a unicorn?” Sci-Twi asked.

“I think so, but what happened to her horn.” Dragon Spike asked.

“It looks like it was cut off or something.” Buddy stated.

That’s when Grand Ruler, Lightning Celestia, Luna and Cadence came down, “Tempest, is it? How may we help you?”

“Oh I’m so glad. How about we start with your complete and total surrender.” Tempest said. Okay. She’s bad news and the rest of the gang knew it too. I decided to step forward with caution. Um.. “hi there. Princess of Friendship. Not exactly sure what's going on, but I know we can talk things out.”

I swear I heard Human Lightning and Rainbow facepalmed. “Oh goodie.” Tempest said. “All six alicorns.” she began to walk down the walkway. “Here’s the deal, I need your magic. Give it up nicely please, or else we make it difficult for everyone.”

“And why should we cower before you?” Luna asked. “There’s one of you and hundreds of us.”

Tempest chuckled, “I was hoping you’d choose ‘Difficult’.” That’s when more airships came in and large Storm creatures came out and landed in the area. Ponies screamed and ran for their lives. "Woah!" Buddy exclaimed.

Tempest leaped into the air and threw an obsidian orb at Queen Celestia. Princess Cadence stepped in front of her aunts and used a shield to protect them, but the orb broke through and hit her, “YAAHHH!” she cried. I gasped in horror as she was turning into a statue. “Oh my goodness!” Rarity cried.

“Cadence!” Celestia and Grand Ruler cried.

“Agh! I can’t stop it!” Cadence cried as she was turned to stone.

Tempest started running through the panic crowd. Queen Celestia and Grand Ruler turned to Princess Luna and Lightning, “Luna, Lightning, quick go South beyond the Badlands.” they both started. Luna and Lightning nodded. Tempest threw another obsidian orb. “Seek the dragon world and help from the Queen of the hippo-” they didn’t finish when the orb hit them turning them into statues. Luna and Lightning gasped and made flew into the air, but Tempest threw another orb at them. It struck them and they turned into and statute mid-air and I used my magic to catch them. “Ugh. Luna! Commander!” she cried.

Tempest chuckled and she launched another orb right at me. I gasped. “Sapphire!” Human Rainbow quickly grabbed me and pulled me out of the way, letting the orb hit someone else. “Easy as pie.” Tempest smirked.

“Oh I love pie.” the hedgehog said. “Oh you totally got the last Princess.” But when the green smoke clear it was revealed that the statue was a pegasus pony. “That’s not the Princess.” Tempest growled. She turned to the hedgehog. “Grubber, get her now!”

“Guys, we gotta get the Princess!” he cried.

“Over here, you guys!” Human Applejack said. My friends, the Grandruler family, Twilight and her family along with the former villains were near the bridge. Rainbow and I dashed through the Storm creatures and made it onto the bridge along with the others, but our path was blocked by two other Storm Creatures. We stopped and I fired my magic, but one of them bounced it off with a shield hitting the ground and breaking the bridge beneath us. “AAAAHHHH!” We all screamed and we fell into the water.

We all breached the surface and the current carried us over a waterfall "Oh no!" Lightning exclaimed.

“AHHH!” I cried as we all fell down the waterfall.

Third Person POV

Grubber and two Storm Creatures looked over the edge. “Which one of you guyth ith goin' down there?” The Storm Creatures growled, “ I would, but I just had a hearty meal, and I will think and I will thide-cramp. I'm very big-boned. I think quick.”

POV Ends

We all were now hiding under a fallen tree, miles from Canterlot which was now surrounded by the dark clouds and had more airships coming in. I was standing by the water while my friends were under the fallen tree. “Everyone alright?” Celestia asked.

“Yeah… I think so.” Aria said a little daze from the fall.

“We just got our butts kicked by the worst party crashers ever!” Pinkie Pie said.

“We got to go back there and fight!” Rainbow Dash said.

“You saw those goons and that unicorn. You seriously want to go back?!” Buddy exclaimed. “That’s suicide!”

“So now what? We can’t hide here forever.” Applejack said. “And let’s be honest, we can’t go back. Look at what they did to our counterparts. We have to keep them from Sapphire."

“Applejack's right. Tempest said she wants the four Princesses magic. She’s already captured five of them. Sapphire's the last Princess. We have to keep her away from Tempest.” Celesto added.

“So what do we do now?” Fluttershy said.

Meanwhile, I was thinking about what Queen Celestia said. “The Queen.”

“Uh, what queen?” Kaede asked.

“Grand Ruler Celestia told Luna and Lightning to go to the dragon world and find the Queen of the Hippo- something. They can’t, so I have to.” I said.

“How? You don’t have the faintest clue as to where they are.” Artie said.

“There somewhere south, past the Badlands.” I added. “I understand you’re scared and nobody else has to go, but I have to find this world and the Queen. It might be our only hope.” I said. I began walking when Rainbow came in front of me, “Well you're not going out there alone where that unicorn can grab you. Wherever you go, we go. We’re in this together.” She said with a toothy grin. “We’re not letting you do this quest alone.”

Applejack came up and put a arm around her shoulder, “We got your back.”

“Indeedy.” Pinkie added.

“Count me in!” Starla added.

“I’m ready to save Equestria!” Rarity said.

“Yeah.” Fluttershy.

"We'll help too." Marla said, speaking for the former villains

“We’re all behind you Sarah.” Celestia said. I smiled at all my friends and nodded. “Now let’s get moving.” I said and with that we walked through the forest for the Badlands on our quest to save Equestria.
