The Lost Party Planner

"AHHHH!" screamed the Cutie Mark Crusaders, running towards the portal at high speeds, while Lightened Star ran after them. The Cutie Mark Crusaders closed the portal at the last minute, before Lightened Star could follow them.

"Yikes!" whispered Scootaloo. "That was close!" Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom nodded.

"We gotta tell Applejack!" said Apple Bloom. They ran towards Sweet Apple Acres.

Sweet Apple Acres was not like it was before, the trees had been destroyed, and the barn looked like it hadn't had a fresh coat of paint in a decade. They went towards the barn to find Applejack arguing with Big Macintosh.
"Why in tarnation did you set the trees on fire?" exclaimed Applejack. "Was it because that pony Lightened Star said that they looked weird?" big mac nodded. "And was that why you washed all of the paint off the barn?"

"Eeyup," said big mac. Applejack sighed.

"There is something weird about that pony Lightened Star..." mumbled Applejack. The Cutie Mark Crusaders burst through the door of the barn.

"Lightened Star is secretly working for Pinkie Pie and is controlling everypony!" shouted Apple Bloom.

"What she said!" shouted the other fillies.

"Apple Bloom!" said Applejack. "You know lying is not a nice thing to do!"

"But it's true!" shouted Apple bloom. Applejack raised in eyebrow.

"Go do more crusading, me and Big Mac have a lot to talk about," replied Applejack. Applejack glared at Big Macintosh, and then shut the door.

"This... Isn't normal," said Apple Bloom, confused.

"It must be Lightened Star controlling Applejack!" realized Sweetie Belle,

"Yeah!" shouted the others.

"Maybe we should-" her idea was cut off by a scream coming from the museum. They ran towards the sound, and saw that one of the exhibits that was gone. They saw the museum owner by it, freaking out.

"What happened?" asked Scootaloo.

"Somepony stole the Annihilation Amulet!" said the pony. The Cutie Mark Crusaders gasped.

"Wait, what IS the Annihilation Amulet?" asked Scootaloo.

"Uh...I... Actually don't know," said the museum owner. "But I'm sure the Canterlot Royal Library would have something about it!"

"Well, I guess now we know what's the next place we're going," said Sweetie Belle.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders had arrived at the Canterlot Royal Library at midnight...

"Woah! There's a lot of books here!" exclaimed Sweetie Belle. The others nodded.

"So Scootaloo, where are we supposed to go?" asked Apple Bloom.

"We have to go through there." said Scootaloo, pointing to the Mane Room of Illegal Spells.

The Canterlot Royal Library's Mane Room of Illegal Spells had thousands of books, from evil earth pony rituals to duplicate dragon tears, to time travel scrolls. "Sooo... How are we going to find the right book?" asked Scootaloo.

"We just keep looking until the we find the right book, I suppose," said Apple Bloom.

Five minutes later...

"Still nothing..." sighed Apple Bloom.

One hour later.

Scootaloo yawned.

Another hour later.

"I found it!" shouted Sweetie Belle. The others were ecstatic.

"Really?" exclaimed Scootaloo. Sweetie Belle nodded, then showed them the book, which was called : "The Amulet of Destruction".

"Yep!" replied sweetie belle. "Let's see what it says..."

Once upon a time, there was a unicorn who had no magical ability, which was impossible in Equestria. Everypony laughed at her, because of not having the ability to cast magic. Then, the filly decided to create the Annihilation Amulet. A magical artifact that could destroy and build universes in seconds. Celestia told her it was not wise to harness such raw power,

but the filly didn't care. She used the power, and lost control. The universe was almost destroyed, until suddenly, Celestia used the elements of harmony, and banished the filly into a book for a thousand years. A family of rock farmers were

chosen to hold the book, and put it into stone. A thousand years later, they took the Annihilation Amulet, and put it into a museum, where the amulet was only touched by one filly. An earth pony. A pink one. And she harnessed half of the power of the Annihilation Amulet. The other... Well... Let's just say nopony was going to find that half.

"Huh. Good to know, I suppose," said Scootaloo.

"I wonder where the other half is," wondered Sweetie Belle.

"Well?! We have to tell the others!" exclaimed Apple Bloom.

"But... They're under the spell!" replied Scootaloo. "What if they tell Lightened Star!?"

"It's worth a try, Scootaloo." said Sweetie Belle. Apple Bloom nodded. Scootaloo sighed.

"I guess." said Scootaloo.

"Well? What are we waiting for?" said Apple Bloom. "Let's go!"

"Cutie mark crusaders heroes! YAY!" they all shouted. The guards noticed the yelling, and looked in their direction.

"Uh oh," said Sweetie Belle.

"Apple bloom! Run faster!" shouted Scootaloo.

"Scootaloo, a'm already runnin as fast as ah can!" Apple Bloom shouted back.

"Well, you're not running fast enough!" replied Scootaloo.

"Do you two think we'll get our cutie marks in running?" asked Sweetie Belle.

"No!" shouted Apple Bloom. "We already have our cutie marks!"

"Keep up, Apple Bloom! They're getting faster!" yelled Scootaloo. They turned around the corner, and the guards kept going down the hallway.

"Few! That was close!" exclaimed Sweetie Belle.

"Yeah!" replied Apple Bloom. "We barely escaped!"

"Yeah! That was so epicly... Epic!" exclaimed Pinkie Pie.

"Yeah Pink- wait... Huh?" said Apple Bloom, confused. Pinkie Pie giggled.

"Uh oh." realized Sweetie Belle.

Applejack was at Sweet Apple Acres, eating pancakes.
"I wonder where Apple Bloom is." wondered Applejack, pouring maple syrup on a stack of pancakes. "Last time I saw her, she was with Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle." Big Macintosh came into the room. "Hey Big Mac! Do you know where Apple Bloom is?"

Big Macintosh shook his head. "Enope."

"She's probably just playin with her friends." decided Applejack. "I'm gonna go buck some more apples.pplejack left the kitchen.

Twilight Sparkle was still spinning in the spinning chair, while Pinkie Pie was looking at the Annihilation Amulet.

"Y'know, Darkened Star, this amulet is pretty cool." said Pinkie Pie. "I'm very excited to use it!"

"You'll never get away with this!" shouted Apple Bloom. Darkened Star glared at her.

Darkened Star sighed. "If I had a bit for every time somepony said that, I'd be rich."

"Can I put it on now?!" asked Pinkie Pie, excitedly.

"No." replied Darkened Star. "We need to have a plan, we can't just start now. We have to take over Canterlot first! So don't put that thing on right now."

"Okie dokie lokie!" replied Pinkie Pie. Pinkie started juggling the amulet, and it fell out of her hoof. "Oopsies!"

"NO!" shouted Darkened Star. She jumped to catch the amulet, her horn stopped glowing.

Applejack was bucking apples when suddenly, she realized something.

"I gotta find my sister!" she exclaimed. She started running towards Ponyville. "What was I thinking?!"

Rarity was sewing when suddenly, she realized that Sweetie Belle hadn't come back from playing with her friends.

"I have to find my sister!" Rarity realized. "What am I doing?!" she packed her bags, and went to find Sweetie Belle.

Fluttershy was drinking tea, when she realized that Scootaloo hadn't come to her afternoon tea party.

"I should go find Scootaloo!" she decided.

Fluttershy, Rarity, and Applejack bonked into each other on their quest to save their sisters.

"Oh! Hello Rarity!" exclaimed Applejack. "I'm lookin for mah sister, what are you doin?"

"Oh hello Applejack!" replied Rarity. "I'm also looking for my sister!"

"Um... Uh... I... I'm... Looking for... Scootaloo..." whispered Fluttershy.

"We should band together to find our sisters!" said Applejack. "Then we can find Scootaloo, Apple Bloom, and Sweetie Belle much faster!" the others nodded.

"Let's go!" they all said.

"Hmmm... Maybe it wouldn't hurt to put this thing on..." said Pinkie Pie. "Well, i'm gonna try it out!" she put it on, and then suddenly-
