My Little Community Friendship is Awesome By Emma Iveli Chapter 1: It Wasn’t Meant to Explode! They were known as the Greendale 7, formerly referred to at the “Study Group”, Jeff Winger a former lawyer who was disbarred for having a phony bachelors degree, Peirce Hawthorn a rather old heir to a moist toilette fortune, Britta Perry a former protester (and still makes a stink whenever something happens), Annie Edison a former adderall addict and high school drop out who managed to clean herself up, Troy Barnes a football player who got injured and lost his scholarship, Shirley Bennett who after getting divorced decided to start her own business and Abed Nadir… who was weird… really, really weird… All them became a group as friends (and a study group) at Greendale Community College… however… It had been a month, a month since the 7 of them were. Most of them had put it behind them that Dean Pelton had changed his minds turned them into scapegoats, Abed was still convinced that he was replaced by an imposter for some reason, within a week he had started staking out the college, thankfully Troy came up with the perfect idea! Build a working replica from their favorite show, Inspector Spacetime, and they were done. “I present to you the real X7 Dimensioniser.” Revealed Troy in full on Constable Reggie mode. He removed a sheet revealing the perfect model of a British telephone booth. “Indeed with this we can go into any time, any place and any universe.” Explained Abed in full on Inspector mode. Their friends were less than impressed. “Oh yay… you built an old phone booth.” Mumbled Jeff fiddling with his phone. “This is no ordinary phone booth it is designed have just enough room for everyone who enters.” Explained Troy. “And it is now our maiden voyage.” Said Abed, “it might be a little uncomfortable, make due with what you have.” “No in hell am I getting in there!” yelled Peirce. “I think don’t all of us are going to fit.” Mumbled Shirley. “Come on you guys, they’ve been working hard on this for the past three weeks.” Said Annie, since she lived with the two, she knew that it better to feed this delusion than the other one. “Besides, do you want Abed arrested again?” asked Britta. The other three groaned, they didn’t want him to get arrested again, but they also knew they were out numbered. “Fine but if we all get stuck, I’m blaming you two.” Said Peirce staring at Britta and Annie. They all went into the X7 Dimensioniser to find… it was bigger on the inside, it was able to snugly fit all 7 of them. “How is this bigger on the inside?” asked Pierce. This earned a glare from Tory and Abed, that was a phrase from another show, one that had a certain rivalry with Inspector Spacetime (And was a rip off). “What?” asked Peirce. “I would rather if you not describe the X7 Dimensioniser like that.” Said Abed still not breaking character. Pierce was confused by what the meant but shrugged it off. “Now we will go to a random place in time and space we don’t know when we will be.” Said Abed. Tory began to fiddle with the controls, the X7 Dimensioniser began to lurch and shake. “This is all a show right?” asked Shirley. “The lights went dark, as it felt like they forced into a strange tube then squeezed out. Eventually it all stopped. “I’M Getting out of HERE!” yelled Pierce as his claustrophobia began to kick in. They all left the X-7 Dimensioniser to find something wrong, very, very wrong… they weren’t human any more, but rather something else… “Well this is unexpected.” Said Abed remaining clam. “YOU TURNED US INTO HORSES!” yelled Peirce. Indeed they were now horses of different colors, all of them were naked for some reason (expect for Abed’s hat), and for some reason had strange markings on well it would be described as flanks. “Do not mind the fact that we are equines.” Said Abed who was yellow, with a lampshade marking on his flank and for some reason had a horn on his forehead, “Judging by the proportions of our bodies, the colors and the types of ponies that we have become I believe that we have landed on the Planet Equestria which many people believe that if one lands on it, they become one of the dominate species of pony that resides here.” “Can someone translate that gibberish!” yelled Peirce who was red and the marking on his flank was a dollar sign. “What he means is that we somehow gotten into the world of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic.” Explained Annie who was pink, had a day planner as her mark and much like Abed had a horn. “Excuse me? How do you know?” asked Shirley who was purple and had a plate of brownies as her mark. “Well I watch it with Troy and Abed…” said Annie sheepishly, “It’s actually a really good show.” “You guys watch My Little Pony?” asked Britta who was green and her mark was a flaming peace sign the strange thing was that she had wings. “I’m not surprised. I heard it’s popular with grown men” Said Jeff, who was red with set of scales as his marking and also had a horn on his forehead, he began to look around, “Great, I lost my phone” he muttered. “As much as I would like to experimenting with the properties of Equestria we have so much to see.” Said Abed. “Yes.” Agreed Troy who was a blue green with a wrench as his mark and like Britta had wings, “After all there’s much more to the universe than ponies.” They turned back to the X7 Dimensioniser however smoke was coming out it. “I believe we should all duck and cover, at once.” Said Abed. “Why?” asked Annie. That was when suddenly it exploded. “IT just blew up!” yelled Troy breaking character and starting one of his freak outs, “We’re trapped it here! AS ponies! WE’RE TRAPPED IN AN ANOTHER UNIVERSE! AND I’M NAKED!” “Well, this has gone pear shaped indeed.” Stated Abed still in character. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} My Little Pony, My Little Pony Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahhh… (My Little Pony) I used to wonder what friendship could be (My Little Pony) Until you all shared its magic with me Big adventure Tons of fun A beautiful heart Faithful and strong Sharing kindness It's an easy feat And magic makes it all complete You have my little ponies Do you know you're all my very best friends? {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Elsewhere in the city of Canterlot, Princess Celestia was sipping tea, a taking a break from royal duties when she sensed it. “Princess? What’s wrong?” asked one of the guards. “I have to go see something.” She answered. She walked towards a chamber, she opened the doors and looked a strange circular wall, on it was with 6 glowing circles but at the top there was a one that had gone black. “Tia… you sensed it as well.” Said Princess Luna entering the same chamber. “Yes.” Answered Princess Celestia looking at her younger sister. “It will come out soon.” Whispered Princess Luna. “Don’t worry.” Said Pines Celestia, ”It’s said when the first seal breaks, they will come. The last 7 made sure of it. “Are you sure?” asked Princess Luna. Prices Celestia’s horn began to glow… she began to mentally comb though Equestria for a group that didn’t belong, she saw them next to something burning, they were also right near Ponyville, which was perfect. “They are, and they’re near Ponyville.” Said Princess Celestia. Princess Luna nodded. “I have to go write a letter to Twilight.” Said Princess Celestia. “You’re not going to tell about it, are you?” asked Princess Luna. “Do not worry, I plan to tell her and the other bearers as well as our guests when they arrive” explained Princess Celestia. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back in the field, Troy continued to freak out, and Price joined in by taking his rage out on Abed. “Why you! I’m going to turn into glue!” Yelled Pierce. However Abed used his new magic to hold back Peirce. “What the hell are you doing?” asked Peirce. “Magic.” Said Abed finally breaking character, “Listen, I have a plan to get back home.” “Oh goody.” Muttered Jeff, “Is it building another time machine?” “No… it’s to see if Princess Celestia can get us back home.” Said Abed. “Princess Celestia?” asked Britta. “She is one of the rulers of this land and she controls the sun.” explained Abed, “Many fans have declared her a goddess. I think if we are able to contact her she might be able to send us back home.” “How do we do that?” asked Britta, “I’m guessing that trying to get in contact with a Princess will be difficult.” “Okay here’s the plan, we go find Ponyville and befriend one or all of the Mane 6, after a few days we orchestrate some kind of fight where we have to learn a lesson in Friendship, because of that one of us will write a letter to Princess Celestia about what we learned however what we’re really going to write that we’re from another planet or universe and are trapped here and hopefully she’ll be able to send us back.” Explained Abed. Thanks to Abed’s plan, Troy had calmed down… however… “While I do agree that’s a good plan, please don’t write a Human in Equestria fic because that would be a terrible story.” Sighed Troy. Abed shrugged, he had no interest in writing a fic, well not any time soon. “Can you please let me go.” Said Peirce. Abed magically let Peirce go, who glared at the newly made yellow unicorn. “You know! The rest of it doesn’t understand you’re saying.” Muttered Shirley. “I guess I should explain some more.” Said Abed, “Those marks on our flanks are cutie marks, they show off our special talent, mine a lampshade, which means my special talent is being meta.” “Mines a wrench.” Said Troy who sighed, he was hopping for something else, “That’s cool, I guess.” “Mine’s… an day planner.” Said Annie, “So that means my special talent is organization…” “That’s right, Jeff’s a set of scales meaning he’s a lawyer, Peirce’s means his special talent is being rich, Shirley’s is baking… and Britta…” Abed paused, “ I haven no idea… I think it might be that you ruin peace!” “Hey!” yelled Britta, “I don’t ruin peace.” “Maybe it means that Britta is the worst.” Said Jeff. Britta glared at him. “All as you may or not noticed, myself, Annie and Jeff are unicorns.” Explained Abed, “We can all use telekinesis and other spells. Like how I was able to keep Peirce from attacking me.” Abed show off by removing his hat using magic. “How were you able to do that?” asked Jeff. “I don’t know.” answered Abed, “I’m guessing that Equestria has some sort of field that makes it second nature.” Jeff looked at a rock and it started floating. “Hey do you think it’s the same with me” asked Troy, “Except with using my wings?” “Try it.” Said Abed. Troy began to flap his new wings and quickly took flight, he immediately began to do many flips and flips. “This is awesome!” he yelled. “As you can tell Pegasi can fly but they can also manipulate clouds and the weather.” Said Abed. “What about me and Shirley?” asked Peirce. “You’re Earth Ponies…” said Abed, “You can grow food and are also super strong.” “So we got the short end of the stick.” Muttered Peirce. “Pretty much.” Said Abed. “Oh great…” muttered Peirce, “We can grow food… that’s awesome…” “Though to be fair, unicorns and Pegasi can’t.” explained Abed. “Hey! Guys!” yelled Troy from above them, “I see Ponyville!” “Before we go, does anyone have any more questions?” asked Abed. “Yeah, why aren’t Tory and Shirley Zebras?” asked Peirce. “I’m guessing that it only turns people into ponies and not any of the other species of this world.” Guessed Abed. “Wow, Peirce, I didn’t think you watched the cartoon.” Said Annie. “What cartoon?” asked Peirce. Annie blinked in confusion then she realized it, “Peirce!” she whined. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} In Ponyville, Twilight was reading a book while take notes. “Twilight!” yelled Spike coming in with a letter, “I just got a letter from Princess Celestia.” “What does it say?” asked Twilight. Spike opened it and read it. “My Dearest Student Twilight Sparkle, there is something of grave importance I need to you tell, I need you and your friends to find 7 ponies that should have just come into town today. All 13 of you then need to come to Canterlot. Signed your teacher Princess Celestia.” “7 new ponies coming into town?” asked Spike. Twilight wondered what that should mean. Twilight sighed, “I think we should see Pinkie Pie first.” Said Twilight. “Oh right, she should know if any new pony comes into town.” Said Spike. Twilight couldn’t shake off a sense of worry, a sense that something bad was going to happen. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Just outside of town, the rag tag group of misfits headed to their destination, with Troy continuing to fly while the rest walked. “I’m surprised none of you are freaking out about this.” Said Abed. “Well Troy already freaked out for the rest of us.” Said Shirley. “And besides, it could be worse.” Said Britta. “Yeah, we could have landed in a post apocalyptic future filled with cannibals, or a barren waste land that could have killed us instantly or…” listed off Abed. “We get it.” Muttered Shirley. “We’re in a little girl’s dream world filled with ponies.” Said Jeff, “The worst that can happen is probably getting kidnapped by dog monsters.” Abed and Annie stopped and stared at him. “What?” asked Jeff. “Jeff, how did you know there was about an episode about that?” asked Annie. “What, it was a educated guess about something.” Said Jeff. Abed shrugged and Annie wondered if Jeff was a closet Brony. That was when they got to the edge of Ponyville. “We should expect the first one we meet is Pinkie Pie. But if she isn’t the first member of the mane 6 I want Peirce to keep quiet if we meet Rainbow Dash.” Said Abed. “Why?” asked Peirce. Troy landed next to Peirce, “No offence, but if you say what we think you’re going to say to her, she’s going to kill you.” “What is she an obvious Lesbian?” asked Peirce, “Then again her name is Rainbow Dash so I’m sure it is.” “He is going to die.” Mouthed Troy to Annie and Abed. Both of them nodded, unless somepony stopped her, Peirce was not long for this world. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They headed into town, while Britta, Shirley, Peirce and Jeff (possibly) didn’t know who they were looking for, Annie, Troy and Abed did. Thankfully in less than a minute after arriving Pinkie showed up. “Hi! Rose! Hi! Daisy! Hi Lily!” said Pinkie to the flower trio, and that was when she saw the former study group, she let out a loud gasp, “New Ponies!” Pinkie Pie ran off to get something. “Is she one of those 6 we’re supposed to be searching for?” asked Shirley. “Pinkie Pie, her special talent is making ponies happy.” Explained Abed, “She’s also hyper active.” Pinkie then came back with her welcome wagon. “I never had a whole group of new ponies to make friends with!” said Pinkie. That was when she began to sing and dance. “Welcome welcome welcome A fine welcome to you Welcome welcome welcome I say how do you do? Welcome welcome welcome I say hip hip hurray Welcome welcome welcome To Ponyville today” This of course made Shirley, Britta and Peirce stare at her. “Is she insane?” asked Peirce, thankfully Pinkie was busy with the welcome to wagon to hear. “No… she’s not.” Said Abed, “This is her when she’s sane.” “You don’t want to see her when she goes insane.” Said Troy who began to shudder. When she needed, the wagon’s oven exploded with confetti while the confetti cannon exploded with cake batter covering all 7 in the stuff. “Oh looks like I accidently put confetti in the oven and caked batter in the confetti cannon again.” Said Pinkie with a huge smile Before any of them could say “What was that?”, Twilight ran over to them. “Oh I’ve been looking for you Pinkie Pie.” Said Twilight. She turned to see the group drenched in cake batter. “You’re all new in town right?” asked Twilight. “Uh… yeah…” answered Jeff. Twilight magically produced 7 towels for them to clean themselves up with. “Good then I don’t have to have Pinkie find you.” Said Twilight. “What do you mean?” asked Britta. “You see Princess Celestia has tasked me with finding you and bring you the palace.” Said Twilight, “Please don’t ask about the details, I’m unsure of them myself.” “Oh I guess I should have factored in Princess Celestia finding out about our arrival.” Said Abed. “There’s something we need to talk about first.” Said Jeff. They all went into a huddle. “So what are we going to do?” asked Jeff. “I say go with her, unless this is a weird alternate universe where she is a tyrant she must be trying to help us get home.” Said Abed. “No what I meant is about names.” Said Jeff. “I guess we can always have Abed come up with names for us.” Said Peirce. “No way, I’m still bad at coming up with names.” Said Abed, “I was planning on calling myself Hanging Lampshade…” Everyone but Peirce flinched remembering the names he came up with for Dungeons and Dragons... hey at least “Hanging Lampshade” was better than “Marrrrrrr” and “Kyle the Gnome”. “How about we say we come from a far away country that has weird names.” Said Annie. “Nice.” Said Abed. They broke the huddle and looked at Twilight and Pinkie Pie. “So can you take us to Canterlot and to this Princess of yours?” aside Jeff in the most flirtatious way possible. Annie lightly hit him ,”Don’t flirt with the Ponies.” She whispered. “Well actually we have to find some of my friends first.” Twilight. “Oh Rainbow Dash is right over there.” Said Pinkie point to Rainbow Dash who laying on a nearby cloud. “Can you go find Fluttershy, Rarity and Applejack.” Said Twilight. “Okey Dokey Loki!” said Pinkie who skipped off. “Hey Rainbow Dash!” called out Twilight. “Hey! Twilight!” said Rainbow Dash, “What’s going on?” “The Princess has summoned us to Canterlot!” called out Twilight. “Fine.” Said rainbow Dash, “I was just taking the day off anyways.” She flew down and saw the former study group. “Who are they?” asked Rainbow Dash. “Princess Celestia apparently summoned us.” Explained Jeff. “I see. I guess you heard of me.” Said Rainbow Dash, “Rainbow Dash I am the fastest flier in Equestria.” “Well I guess I heard right then.” Said Peirce, Rainbow Dash felt proud when Peirce said that séance, but it wasn’t finished, “That you’re an obvious lesbian.” “What?” asked Rainbow Dash, “What does Lesbian mean?” “We’re from another country, so we use different terms than Equestria.” Said Abed, “But I heard that here the term is Filly Fooler here.” “Wait did? You just called me a Filly Fooler?” asked Rainbow Dash. “If that means you like women then yes.” Answer Peirce. “Mares.” Translated Abed. “Abed, Stop translating Peirce.” Scolded Jeff, “Peirce, stop calling her a lesbian.” “But she is one, I mean look at her rainbow hair, it looks like she just step out of a gay rights parade.” Said Peirce. Before Rainbow Dash could do anything, Twilight magically grabbed her tail. “Don’t to try hurt him.” Said Twilight. “Did you hear what he called me.” Said Rainbow Dash. “Oh don’t mind him, that’s just how he is. He calls me one all the time.” Said Britta, “And he calls Jeff gay all the time.” “If you say so.” Said Rainbow Dash, “How do you even deal with him?” “To be honest I tune him out most of the time.” Mumbled Britta. “How bad is he?” asked Rainbow Dash. “I hope you don’t find out.” Sighed Britta. “Hey!” called out Pinkie. They turned to see Pinkie running towards them with Applejack, Rarity and Fluttershy. “So what’s going on?” asked Applejack. “I don’t know yet.” Said Twilight. “It has to with us.” Said Jeff. “Oh my.” Said Rarity, looking at Jeff, “Aren’t you a stud.” “Hey there.” Said Jeff right back at her. Before Annie could once again reprimand him, a black lighting bolt came from the sky and hit the ground, thankfully no one was hit. “What was that!” yelled Troy. They all look at the ground that the lighting hit, and what was there wasn't unnaturally clean crater, it was as if the ground the lighting touched disappeared… not vaporized, not burnt just nothing. “I think that might be one of the reasons why Princess Celestia summoned you.” Said Abed. “You think?” asked Rainbow Dash. Little did they know was that lighting bolt was the first sign of it, a being that can’t be defeated by the Elements of Harmony… well by the Elements of Harmony alone. For the former study group, this adventure would be an adventure that would be beyond their imagination… well… not beyond Abed and Troy’s imagination, but still something they would never expect in a million years to ever happen to them… The Elements of LifeChapter 2: The Elements of Life They arrived at the train station where the daily train to Canterlot was. However those that weren’t familiar with the show couldn’t help but to stare at it. “It looks like a little girl’s toy.” Muttered Peirce. “That’s because it is.” Mumbled Annie. “I got the tickets.” Said Twilight. “Thank you so much…” said Shirley, “Um… what was your name again?” “Twilight Sparkle.” Answered Twilight. Britta tried not the snicker at the unintentional Twilight reference. “What’s so funny?” asked Twilight. “Nothing… nothing that has to with vampires…” mumbled Britta. “Muffin car?” asked Troy ignoring Britta. “Muffin car!” answered Abed. The two did that handshake and decided to ride in the muffin car. {}{}{}{}{}3{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} On the way to Canterlot the two groups of friends decided to ride separately. The Mane 6 (as they were known by fans) rode in a regular car. “What was that black lighting earlier?” asked Rainbow Dash. “I don’t know, I never heard of anything like that before.” Answered Twilight. “It’s not Discord is it?” asked Applejack. “I doubt it, trying to destroy us with lighting wasn’t his thing.” Said Rainbow Dash. “I’m sure that’s one of the reasons why we’re being summoned by Princess Celestia.” Said Twilight. “And the other reason is to get those guys to Princess Celesta.” Said Rainbow Dash. “Who are they anyways?” asked Pinkie. “All I know is they’re from another country and they use weird terms.” Said Twilight. “What do you mean weird terms?” asked Applejack. “That old guy keeps calling me a lesbian.” Muttered Rainbow Dash. “So what’s the problem?” asked Fluttershy. “It’s means filly fooler.” Muttered Rainbow Dash. “Oh…” mumbled Fluttershy. “Oh come now, Peirce might be rude but I think Jeff is quite charming.” Said Rarity. “We noticed.” deadpanned Applejack. “Do you think we’ll see them again?” asked Pinkie. “I don’t know.” Said Twilight. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} In the muffin car, the study talked about their predicament. “I can’t wait to get back to our own planet and pretend this didn’t happen.” Muttered Jeff. “Jeffery” scowled Shirley. “Look, we’re going to get back before the end of the day, it would be like we never left.” Said Jeff. “Yes, but those ponies have been so nice to us.” Said Shirley. “Not all of them, that rainbow one tried to attack me.” Said Peirce. “That’s because you called her a lesbian.” Said Britta. “But she is.” Said Pirie. “It’s a good thing Twilight did stop her, chances are she would have tried to kill you with the sonic Rainboom.” Said Abed. “Oh I wanted to see the sonic Rainboom.” Said Troy, “And Derpy… I didn’t get a chance to see Derpy.” “Derpy?” asked Britta, “They named a pony Derpy?” “Fans named her Derpy.” Explained Abed. “They used it in the show… until too many people complained that it made fun of people with disabilities.” Said Annie. “Well it must be if they named a pony Derpy.” Said Britta. “This is why we didn’t tell you about ponies.” Troy muttered. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Eventually they arrived in Canterlot and at the palace where the guards let them in. When they got to the throne room they saw Princess Celestia. The former study group couldn’t help to be in awe of the Princess. Even those that watched the series were stunned by her, sure seeing her on TV is one thing, but they could tell she was powerful and regal at the same time. “Princess Celestia.” Twilight cheerfully greeted while running towards her mentor. Princess Celestia gave a pony exultant of a hug, however she still had a look of worry on her face. “What’s wrong?” asked Twilight. “I’m amusing you were attacked by black lightning earlier.” Sighed Princess Celestia. “We were. What was it?” asked Twilight. “I’ll explain… but first.” Said Princess Celestia, she looked at the former study group. “You haven’t told them, have you?” asked Princess Celestia. “Told us what?” asked Twilight. “They’re from another universe.” Said Princess Celestia. “So wait… we’re not on another planet but a universe?” asked Peirce, “Thanks a lot Troy.” “How was I supposed to know it was going to blow up.” Muttered Troy. “Now’s not the time to argue, it’s almost over.” Said Jeff. “Wait you guys are from another universe! That is so awesome!” yelled Pinkie jumping to Jeff’s face. “We’re trying to talk to your princess… can you please get out of my face.” Said Jeff. “Fine Mr. Grumpy Pants.” Muttered Pinkie. “I can’t send you back.” Sighed Princess Celestia, “At least not yet.” “What?” asked Britta. “You see, I… no all of Equestria needs your help.” Explained Princess Celestia. “Wait are you saying the Dimensioniser malfunction was caused by destiny?” asked Abed. “Yes and no…” said Princess Celestia. “Wait, so you mean that were brought here so that we can fight some kind of evil thing and save all of Equestria?” asked Troy, “THAT IS SO AWESOME THAT I’M ALREADY IN NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY!” “But Troy, it might be dangerous.” Said Britta. “She’s right, I have to explain everything… follow me.” Said Princess Celestia. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} The elder princess led everyone to the chamber. “Before Luna became Nightmare Moon but after Discord’s defeat something arrived in Equestria.” Explained Princess Celestia. “What?” asked Twilight. They entered the chamber and saw the wall. “Singularity is what it called itself.” Explained Princess Celestia, “It wanted to completely and utterly destroy Equestria, the moon, the sun and even the stars. Unfortunately the Elements of Harmony couldn’t defeat them… not alone. The only way to defeat it was using the Elements of Life, items similar to the Elements of Harmony: Knowledge, Persistence, Hope, Love, Compassion, Peace and Willpower. However they can’t be used by Ponies from this universe… fortunately thanks to Singularity’s influence, a rip in space and time happened and 7 beings from another universe appeared and were turned into Ponies. With their help we were able to defeat it and seal it away.” Princess Celestia took a breath, “The seal which has 7 layers is breaking, Singularity is able to influence the outside world which is why it was able to attack you.” There was a silence as they let what she said sink it in. “So wait… you’re saying that we have to take up these elements of life or this universe gets destroyed.” Said Jeff, “And billions of Ponies and other creatures die?” “Yes…” said Princess Celestia, “I understand if you don’t want to help us… this isn’t your universe.” “I don’t care.” Said Troy, “I’m still in.” “While normally this is something that’s usually reserved for the Dreamatorium and playing a character since this is real and billions of lives will be at stake, I think this might be something to say yes to.” said Abed. “If Troy and Abed are in, then I’m in as well.” Said Annie. “I’ll join too, I mean Jesus wouldn’t like it if I just abandon a magical universe with ponies.” Said Shirley who muttered under her breath, “Even if they worship a goddess…” “Shirley’s right! This would be a grave injustice.” Said Britta, “After all…” “Not now Britta.” Said Jeff, “No one needs to hear you rant right now.” “What you haven’t decided yet?” asked Britta. “No I’ve decided that I’m going to help…” said Jeff, “I have my reasons and they’re none of your business, I just don’t want you to prattle on about the so called injustices of our universe while you agree to save someone else’s.” Britta glared at Jeff who just shrugged it off. “If we win what do we get in return?” asked Peirce. “A party.” Said Pinkie. “You were going to throw them a party anyways.” Mumbled Rainbow Dash. “Will I have to pay for anything?” asked Peirce. “No.” answered Pinkie confused. “Then I’m in.” said Peirce. “The last bearers were powerful magic users and put a spell on this seal that no matter what if it broke someone would come to help.” Explained Princess Celestia, “That no matter what would happen they would be the type of beings to help no matter what happens.” “So I’m guessing that these Elements of Life are in some abandoned castle somewhere in some kind of dangerous forest.” Said Jeff. “How did you know the Elements of Harmony were in a place like that?” Said Pinkie. Jeff shrugged. “No.” answered Princess Celestia. She motioned over to a pedestal, which had a stone orb on it. “They are spread through out Equestria. The past bearers thought it was a good idea.” She explained, “This is the Element of Knowledge, only the best suited barrier can pick it up, or else it will mildly shock the pony trying to grab it.” “Really?” asked Peirce. None of them wanted to try it. “Peirce, you be the first one.” Said Jeff. “Why me?” asked Peirce. “You’re the one who wants to do this because of a free party.” Said Jeff. “Fine.” Said Peirce. He touched the orb and got a “mild” shock. Because of that, he was on the floor twitching. “That wasn’t mild…” he grumbled. “Okay… who wants to go next.” Said Jeff. “I’ll go.” Said abed, “I mean it doesn’t say kind of knowledge it has to be.” Abed touched the orb and there was a bright light, when it dimmed, Abed was now holding a necklace with an orange gem it that was shaped like a lampshade. “Cool, coolcoolcool.” He said. “I get the feeling that his knowledge isn’t like mine.” Mumbled Twilight. “Sorry Twilight.” Said Annie. Twilight sighed. “I don’t know where the others are.” Said Princess Celestia, “However the final seal won’t break for at least two more weeks, I will keep in touch, by the way do you 7 have any more questions.” “Yes, I have one, why are you a Princess and not a Queen?” asked Britta, “I mean I’m sure somewhere little girls want to be like you and you’re just a princess.” Princess Celestia stared at her, fighting off the strangest urge to call her the worst. “It’s not important.” Said Princess Celestia. Twilight was face hoofing… “We should go… we do have a deadline.” Said Annie. Princess Celestia gave Twilight the books about the Elements of Life, after that they all ran out of the chamber, and once they were out of the palace, Jeff finally said the obvious. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} “We are so screwed” said Jeff. “Jeffery.” Scolded Shirley, “Don’t say that… no matter how true it might be.” “Wait? What?” asked Rainbow Dash. “No he’s right, the best any of us ever did was win at Paintball, we’re probably the worst group of 7 to do this.” Said Abed, “Possibly somewhere below worst. We just came here because we had a time machine at the worst possible time.” “Oh come on you can’t be that bad.” Said Twilight. They all flinched. “About a month ago…” said Britta, “We started a riot at our old school.” “Oh come it can’t be that bad.” Said Rainbow Dash. “It wasn’t like it wasn’t a funeral at the same time.” Said Pinkie. There was an awkward silence, all 7 avoided their gazes. “My word…” said Rarity. “Seriously?” asked Rainbow Dash. “Now who would start a riot at a funereal?” asked Applejack. “Does it matter?” asked Jeff. “No… not really…” mumbled Twilight. “Wait… if it was your school, then why are you different ages?” asked Pinkie. “Do community colleges exist here in Equestria?” asked Jeff. “Oh…” said Twilight realizing, “Yes, they do…” “That doesn’t matter, it was all in the past.” Said Rainbow Dash. “Come on… we should head back to Ponyville.” Said Twilight. “Why?” asked Jeff. “Well the library is probably the best to read the books.” Said Twilight. They shrugged and headed back to the train station. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They didn’t know that Princess Luna heard everything… “Should I tell Tia?” asked Princess Luna silently to herself. “Don’t worry, I heard everything.” Said Princess Celestia joining her, “A group that caused a riot at a funeral. That’s something you don’t hear everyday.” “So should we?” asked Princess Luna. “No, they are good people.” Said Princess Celestia, “They might not be perfect, but they are who we have.” “But they are below the bottom of the barrel.” Said Princess Luna. “Don’t worry, they have my faith…” said Princess Celestia. Princess Luna sighed. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} With the two groups of friends they managed catch the last train of the day (which unfortunately meant they have to sleep on the train back to Ponyville). Thankfully since they didn’t have to hide any secrets and because of that they were in the same car… “So what happened next?” asked Pinkie. “And so the Inspector and Reggie…” explained Abed telling Pinkie about an episode of Inspector Spacetime “Can you please go five minutes without talking about Inspector Spacetime? I’m trying to sleep.” Said Jeff. “You know there’s a car for that.” Said Abed. “All of the beds are taken.” muttered Jeff. “You know what I realized you all need a place to stay when we're back into town.” Said Pinkie. “I call Pinkie Pie’s house!” yelled Troy. “Abed you can stay too since there are 7 of you.” Said Pinkie. “Cool, coolcoolcool.” Said Abed. “I think I should stay with Twilight.” Said Annie, “I can help her find the location of the other elements.” “Thanks.” Said Twilight. “Oh Jeff, if you want…” said Rarity with a seductive smile. “No way, I’m not letting you two under the same roof.” Said Shirley, “I’m staying at your place Rarity.” Rarity started pouting. “I guess Jeff can stay at my place.” Whispered Fluttershy. “Thanks.” Said Jeff. “If you want to Britta you can stay with me.” Said Rainbow Dash. “Why thank you Rainbow Dash.” Said Britta. “I guess you two are falling for each other.” Said Peirce who still thought Rainbow Dash was a lesbian. Rainbow Dash tried to punch him bit was stopped by Twilight using her magic. “Now’s not the time.” Muttered Twilight. “I’ll house him.” Muttered Applejack just everyone else didn’t like him that much. While they were going to the journey it was going to be a long road… a long awkward road… And hopefully they were wrong… maybe Equestria wasn’t screwed… Maybe… Cloudsdale CrisisChapter 3: Cloudsdale Crisis The second that they arrived back in Ponyville Annie and Twilight headed to the Library. After explaining to Spike what was going on they went to find the next Element of Life. “Why did they have to put it in riddle?” asked Twilight. “I don’t know.” Said Annie, “They were probably from a different universe than us. One where riddles are spoken all the time…” “Compassion lies ever floating, never touching the ground, a place where clouds are born.” Read Twilight, “Of course, this one it's so obvious.” “What do you mean?” asked Annie. “Cloudsdale. It’s a city that entirely made of clouds.” Explained Twilight, “Plus most of the clouds in Equestria are born there.” “Are you guys almost done?” asked Spike, “You forget to put back the books that you didn’t need.” Indeed they were surrounded by books, massive stacks of books. “Why did there have to be two of them.” Muttered Spike picking up the books, “And why did they have to be the same…” “Well we should tell everyone.” Said Twilight, “Let’s go to Pinkie’s first… I think she might be a bad influence on your friend.” “I doubt it, I think she might be a bad influence on Tory and Abed.” Said Annie. There was an awkward silence… “Wait, Pinkie’s with somepony who might be a bad influence and she might be a bad influence on them?” asked Spike, “This I gotta see.” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They got to Sugar Cube Corner to find… they were… well both right. Abed was dressed like the Inspector, Troy was dressed like Reggie and Pinkie was dressed like Geneva. Not only that but Troy was what looked like to be five cupcakes in his mouth and Pinkie was trying to give him the Heimlich. “I think we should have cupcake breaks along with bathroom breaks while here.” Said Abed. Pinkie was able to get the cupcakes out of Troy’s mouth. “How were you able to do it?” Said Troy. “Don’t know.” Answered Pinkie with a shrug. Twilight cleared her throat causing the three to stare at them. “How long were you there?” asked Troy. “Less than a minute after I came out of the bathroom.” Answered Abed. Spike couldn’t help but to burst out laughing. “Just ignore him.” Sighed Twilight. “Did you find the next element?” asked Abed. “It’s in Cloudsdale.” Said Twilight. “Cloudsdale? What’s that?” asked Troy in the least convincing way possible. “You know about Cloudsdale?” asked Twilight staring at him, wondering why he was using a tone voice like he was lying. “No of course not…” lied Troy. “It’s a city in the clouds.” Said Pinkie, “It’s really awesome!” “I have to go get the hot air balloon.” Said Twilight, “Can all of you get the others?” “I don’t know, we just got back a couple hours ago…” said Troy. “We don’t have time to rest.” Said Twilight. Pinkie took out maps from somewhere and gave them to Annie, Troy and Abed. “I’m going to get Rarity and Shirley.” Said Pinkie, “I’m sure that Rarity is giving her an unwanted make over.” “Oh I want to see that.” Said Troy. “You’re the only who can get to Rainbow Dash’s house.” Pointed out Twilight. “Oh… yeah…” mumbled Troy. And so they all headed to tell the others that they found out where the next Element was. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Pinkie headed towards Carousel Boutique with Spike. “So… what were you doing?” asked Spike. “Playing Inspector Spacetime.” answered Pinkie. “I see…” said Spike not sure what Inspector Spacetime, and a part of him wasn’t sure if wanted to know. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They got to the boutique with Shirley backed into a corner. “I told you I don’t need a makeover.” Said Shirley. “Oh come now, you can’t like the way your mane is…” said Rarity. “I’m fine the way my hair is…” said Shirley. “But it’s so messy and unkempt.” Said Rarity. “This is just the way it is.” Said Shirley. “Hi!” called out Pinkie, “They already found the next element!” “Oh thank the lord!” said Shirley running towards Pinkie. “I’ll get you next time…” mumbled Rarity, she looked at Spike, “Spike be a dear and watch the shop for me.” “Okay Rarity.” Spike replied in full on love mode. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile at Fluttershy’s cottage, Fluttershy was feeding her animals, while Jeff laid on her couch staring at the ceiling. That was when he saw Angel hop towards him. “What do you want?” he asked. Angel pointed to Jeff, then pointed outside and started to pretend cry, then made a motion as if he strangling someone then once again pointed at Jeff. “What?” asked Jeff. “I think he said that if you make Fluttershy cry he’ll kill you.” Said Abed suddenly showing up. Jeff jumped, “Where did you come from?” he asked. “I teleported in.” said Abed, “I figured out how to do it last night. It’s actually quite easy, you just picture where you want to be and you’re there.” “I see…” Jeff slowly, he was freak out by it. Angel stared at the strange unicorn then nodded. “Why would he think I’d make her cry?” asked Jeff. “Well when compared to ponies, you’re a complete and utter bastard… no offense.” Said Jeff. “I can’t be that bad.” Said Jeff, “I mean I’m sure there’s scam artist ponies like that one from the Simpsons.” Abed stared at Jeff, “It’s strange that you would make such a reference.” “What’s that supposed to mean?” asked Jeff. That was when Fluttershy came into the room before Abed could say anymore. “Oh Abed…” whispered Fluttershy, “When did you get here?” “Less than a minute ago.” Said Abed, “Annie and Twilight found the next element already and wanted me to tell you.” “Okay.” Whispered Fluttershy. As they left, Jeff looked at Angel one more time, who did the “I’m watching you” motion. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} At Rainbow Dash’s house, she was in a conversation with Britta, about Peirce. “But his dad was even worse.” Said Britta. “How so?” asked Rainbow Dash. Before Britta could say anything there was a knock on the door, Rainbow Dash opened it and saw it was Derpy. “Morning Rainbow Dash!” said Derpy handing her the mail. “Morning Derpy.” replied Rainbow Dash. Britta looked at Derpy, “So that’s Derpy.” She mumbled. She flew over to the door and was about to reassure Derpy about her disabilities, when she heard a squee, as it turns out Troy had just arrived and was trying to stop himself from squeeing at the cross eyed Pegasus. “Oh this is Britta and Troy, they’re in town for a while.” Said Rainbow Dash. “Hey there!” greeted Derpy. “Don’t worry…” said Britta, “I won’t look down just because you’re disabled.” Rainbow Dash face hoofed when she said that. “What’s that supposed it mean?” asked Derpy who was clearly offended at the poorly constructed olive branch. “Nothing…” responding Britta realizing that she made a mistake. “What just because I’m cross eyed means I’m disabled?” asked Derpy who was getting angry. “No… I didn’t mean it that way.” responded Britta. “You’re the worst, I demand apology muffins and you better have them next time I see you.” Muttered Derpy glaring at her harshly. Derpy flew off to continue her route leaving everyone in stunned silence. “What just happened?” asked Troy. “I don’t know…” sighed Rainbow Dash, “I didn’t know it was even possible to get her angry!” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} At Sweet Apple Acres, Annie managed to find Applejack. “Hey there Annie.” Said Applejack, “Did you and Twi find the next element?” “We did.” Said Annie. “All right, let’s go get Peirce.” Said Applejack. As they headed to the house, Annie asked an important question. “Did you tell your family about what’s going on?” “I did…” said Applejack, “And considering the other stuff we’ve fought Granny Smith had Big Macintosh aren’t surprised.” “I see.” Said Annie. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They got to the house where they saw Granny Smith was looking at Peirce as he ate a pie. “This has to be the best pie I have ever eaten.” Said Peirce. “Awww shucks Mr. Hawthorn…” said Granny. “Call me Peirce…” said Peirce, “Mr. Hawthorn was my father.” The two watched as Granny Smith made the moves on Peirce. Applejack tried her best not to vomit. “Ewww…” muttered Annie. Annie went over to Peirce and used her new magic skill to tug on his ear. “Sorry, but we have to go.” Said Annie. “Not so hard…” muttered Peirce. “I’m just going to pretend I didn’t see that.” Mumbled Applejack then she followed them. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They all managed to meet up at the place where the hot air balloon is kept. “As you may or not know the next element is in Cloudsdale.” Said Twilight, “I’m going to apply the clouds walking spell in the air.” “Can we all fit in there?” asked Jeff looking at the rather small hot air balloon. “I’m sure it can fit 9 ponies.” Said Twilight. “And Gilligan cut.” Said Abed. Everyone stared at Abed. “What?” asked Applejack. “Just ignore that.” Said Jeff. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} The non-Pegasi were crowded and cramped in the basket of the balloon. “Okay… who’s butt in my face.” Said Annie. “Oh no… who’s stepping on my tail?” asked Rarity. “Next time get a bigger hot air balloon.” Muttered Jeff. The Pegasi stared at the balloon, all of them relieved they didn’t have to be in there. “I’m so happy I’m a Pegasus right now.” Said Troy. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Thankfully they got to Cloudsdale without crashing. “Okay…” said Twilight, “I’m going to apply the cloud walking spell now… I know I should have done it earlier sorry…” “Look! I don’t believe this cloud walking spell is needed, they can stand on the clouds so can I!” Said Peirce pointing to the four Pegasi in the group. Peirce jumped out of the basket, on to a cloud and of course immediately fell through it, everyone couldn’t help but to stare at what just happened. “I’d say let him fall, but we still need him to save the universe.” Said Jeff. “I’ll go save him.” Muttered Rainbow Dash, thankfully she didn’t have to resort to the Sonic Rainboom. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} After that little ordeal, thankfully Twilight managed to properly apply the Cloud Walking spell. “Why couldn’t you just place it on me before I did that!” said Peirce. “You’re the one who thought you could stand on the clouds.” Muttered Twilight. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile in Canterlot, in the Palace specifically the seal, a black blob came out of it. The blog took the form of a crow then flew out of a window, after all it couldn’t let anyone know of its existence, at least not yet… {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back up in the clouds in the city of Cloudsdale… “So where do you think it might be?” asked Annie. “I think I remember seeing a statue like the one back in the palace near the weather factory.” Saud Rainbow Dash, “But it’s been years…” “The weather factory?” asked Shirley. “Why do you sound surprised?” asked Rainbow Dash. “We don’t control the weather in our universe.” Said Annie, “It happens naturally.” “Seriously?” asked Rainbow Dash, “And I guess plants grow on their own.” There was an awkward silence. “Wow… your universe is weird.” Said Pinkie. “Our universe is the normal one, this one is the weird one.” Said Jeff. Before a rather childish argument could happen there were several screams, Rainbow Dash flew over to see what was going on and found a perfect round hole in the cloud. Around the hole several Pegasi were freaking out. “What happened?” asked Rainbow Dash. “A weird black bird suddenly landed and caused that hole.” Cried a Pegasus filly. That was when the crow tried to fly into Rainbow Dash, but Rainbow Dash dodged. The crow landed creating another hole in the clouds. “Great…” muttered Rainbow Dash. The bird once again flew towards Rainbow Dash at the same time the others arrived. “What’s going on?” asked Twilight. “That thing is caused by whatever it’s called.” Said Rainbow Dash. “Singularity.” corrected Twilight. “Whatever.” Muttered Rainbow Dash trying to fly away from it. Applejack decided to try to lasso it, however when she used it the rope dissolved. “Crud…” muttered Applejack. However this only caused the crow to turn its attention onto Applejack, who ran as fast she could. “Hey!” yelled Rainbow Dash to the Pegasi of Cloudsdale, “Do any of you know where a weird stone ball on a pillar?” “I have, I pass it on the way to work.” Said a grey mare with a purple and blue mane and tail, “I’ll show the way…” “Wait…” said Abed, “I have a theory, Twilight can you make a rope made of entirely magic?” “Why?” asked Twilight. “Because I have an idea.” Said Abed. “Go on ahead.” Said Twilight figuring it out. The grey mare named Peppermint Crunch lead the way to the element. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} “So… do you have a relative named Mintberry Crunch?” asked Troy. “No…” said Peppermint, “Why?” “No reason.” Said Troy. None of the others from Earth currently watched South Park so none of them got the joke. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back with Applejack she continued to run hoping that she wouldn’t run out of cloud with the bird tailing her. That was when suddenly the crow was tied up with a purple rope. Applejack turned around breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the rope coming from Twilight’s horn. Applejack saw Abed next to her. “I came up with a theory, it seems that it dissolves matter.” Said Abed, “I thought Magic might work as magic must be energy. Turns out I was right.” “Well he is the element of knowledge.” Sighed Twilight. The bird struggled in the rope, but it wasn’t able to escape. “We just need to figure out how to get rid of it.” Said Abed, “Now if only we had some kind ghost trap…” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile near the weather factor Peppermint Crunch showed them to the statue which was indeed the next element. “So who goes first?” asked Annie. “Peirce.” Said Jeff. “Oh come on.” Said Peirce. “We need to see which one fits you best.” Said Jeff. “Fine.” Muttered Peirce knowing he was just the test subject. He grabbed the orb, but it electrocuted him. “I’m sure being a psych major, I’ll be the one to get it.” Said Britta. “Former psych major.” Corrected Jeff. Britta touched the orb and she too got an electric shock. “Okay who’s next?” asked Jeff. “I’ll try it.” Said Troy. He grabbed the orb next and there was a bright flash of light and encompassed all of Cloudsdale. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Where Twilight, Abed and Applejack were the crow dissolved with an unearthly scream. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back at where the element was kept, the light died down revealing that it was now a gold necklace with a bright green crystal the shape of wrench. “All right!” cheered Troy. “So what’s going on exactly?” asked Peppermint. “We’ll tell you later.” Said Pinkie. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} The group groups once again met up, and when Abed saw that Troy found his element they did their secret hand shake. “So I guess maybe we should head back and find the next element.” Said Twilight. “Do it tomorrow.” Said Jeff. “Yeah…” agreed Rainbow Dash, “I haven’t been able to get any sleep in the last day.” “But…” said Twilight. “Look the Princess said we have like two weeks.” Said Jeff, “I’m sure we have plenty of time…” “Fine” muttered Twilight, “If anything happens, I’m blaming you…” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} In the seal, Singularity became angry, they had found the weakness of its golems… Magic… hopefully it’s next golem will be able to do its job and kill them… after all one touch can kill a normal pony... it would bring Equestria into nothingness and those Element Bearers couldn’t stop them if they tried. Below GroundChapter 4: Below Ground Princess Celestia read the letter that Twilight had sent her, she had worried about this before. “What is wrong?” asked Princess Luna. “Singularity’s Golems.” Said Princess Celestia. “It can send them even in its seal?” asked Princess Luna. “I seems that way.” Sighed Princess Celestia. Princess Celestia sighed, she had hoped that they wouldn’t have to worry about the golems yet. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile in Ponyville, it was just a normal day, ponies from all over town did their errands and business, Shirley and Jeff were sitting outside of a café just drinking coffee. “I don’t know why that girl wants to give me a make over but she just won’t stop.” Said Shirley. “I know what you mean, I had to get away from the house.” Said Jeff, “That rabbit won’t stop giving me death threats.” “Stop making fun of me.” Muttered Shirley. “I’m not… all those guys were right, that rabbit is evil.” Muttered Jeff. “What?” asked Shirley. That was when Rarity showed up with Spike following her while pink hearts came from him. “Oh Shirley.” Said Rarity, then she noticed Jeff, “Oh Jeffery, I didn’t notice you.” “Oh come on your just saying that.” Said Jeff. Before Rarity could respond Spike said, “Shouldn’t we be getting back to the boutique.” “Oh yes.” Said Rarity, “I’ll see you later Jeffery.” However Spike stayed. “Do anything to Rarity, and you’ll regret it.” Muttered Spike glaring at Jeff. “Spike!” called out Rarity. Spike ran after Rarity, leaving both Shirley and Jeff confused. “Now that I’ve been threaten by a baby dragon, do you believe I was threatened by a bunny?” asked Jeff. “Maybe.” Mumbled Shirley. That was when Britta walked over to the table carrying a muffin basket. “What’s with the muffin basket?” asked Jeff. “I angered the mail mare.” Said Britta, “And she demanded this as an apology.” “It isn’t Derpy is it?” asked Jeff. “How did you know?” asked Britta. “Considering your little gripe when we first got here, it’s no wonder why you offended her.” Muttered Jeff. As it turns out that was when Derpy saw her. “Are those the apology muffins?” asked Derpy glaring at Britta. “Yeah, I asked Mrs. Cake what kind of Muffins you liked and after hearing what happened she made this basket.” Said Britta, “So we cool?” Derpy grabbed the muffin basket, “For now…” “Hey at least you didn’t get threats against you.” Said Jeff. “What?” asked Britta. “Don’t ask.” Muttered Jeff. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Nearby, Pinkie was listening to Abed describe the Star Wars Trilogy, when Troy who was with them saw Derpy. “Um… there’s something I need to do.” Said Troy flying over to Derpy. “What was that about?” asked Pinkie. “Don’t mind him.” Said Abed. “Does it have something to with the fact you watch us.” Said Pinkie. Abed looked at her. “You knew.” Said Abed. “You can sense them too. Can’t you?” asked Pinkie. “I try not to address it that much.” Said Abed, “I noticed when I was a kid.” “I know right.” Said Pinkie, “My sisters never wanted to be around me until after I got my cutie mark.” There was a silence. “It’s too bad we’re from a different universe.” Said Pinkie. “I know.” Said Abed. “So… in your universe is Derpy popular?” asked Pinkie. “You have no idea.” Said Abed. “By the way… please don’t tell my friends about this.” Said Pinkie. “Don’t worry, I don’t like it when the characters learn they’re in a TV show, it’s too cheap a gimmick, nothing I’ve ever seen ever captured the perfect excusal crisis.” Said Abed, “Besides, with the exception of Peirce I doubt anyone would say anything.” That was when Troy arrived. “That was so some awesome! I found out her cutie mark means popping bubble wrap.” Said Troy. “Nice!” said Abed. Pinkie just giggled. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile at the Apple Family Stand, Peirce was working the stand with Applejack. “Why can’t I just lay low at your place?” asked Peirce. “Because I don’t trust you being around Granny Smith.” muttered Applejack. “Oh come, I would never get into the sack with her…” said Peirce. Unfortunately Rarity and Spike were there to say hi. “I’m going to pretend I didn’t hear that.” Said Rarity. That was when Spike looked like he was going to vomit. “Can’t blame him this time.” Said Applejack with a shudder. However he cough up a scroll. “Did that lizard just barf up a scroll?” asked Peirce. “I’m a baby dragon…” muttered Spike. Spike skimmed though the scroll. “I’m sorry Rarity but I have to go take this to Twilight.” Said Spike who ran off. There was an awkward silence, after all it was a touchy subject… “I have to go.” Said Rarity running away as fast as she could. “If you mention that again, I’m going to buck you.” Said Applejack. “Wait... why do you want to do it, if you won’t let me and your grandma do it.” Said Peirce. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} At the Library, Spike came into to find a massive pile of books next to the two studiers. “Hope exists where hope is needed, the place where the thief steals from the rich and gives to the needy.” Read Twilight “That’s obviously Trottingham, the legendary, Robbing Hood” “Twilight!” yelled Spike. “What is it?” asked Annie. “This letter came for from Princess Celestia.” Said Spike. He gave her the letter, Twilight read and immediately got worried. “What does it say.” Said Annie. “My dearest student Twilight Sparkle, I unfortunately have terrible news to give you. Singularity has the ability to create creatures named Golems, these Golems have the ability to completely and utterly destroy everything they touch, even living things. With the weakened seal, Singularity is able to send them to prevent you from finding the Elements of Life. However magic is their weakness. Please be careful, Signed Princess Celestia.” Read Twilight. There was silence. “Spike go find everypony and tell them to meet at the train station” said Twilight. “Fine…” sighed Spike who decided to get Applejack and Peirce last after what he heard. Sometime later at the train station, everyone managed to meet up. “We’re here.” Said Applejack as she and Peirce was the last ones to arrive. They all flinched at Peirce’s face which was covered in bruises, slightly swollen with two black eyes. “Oh, Peirce what happened?” asked Annie. “I learned that if Applejack says if she’s going to buck you, it’s not a euphemism.” Said Peirce. “Eww…” muttered Annie. “What is wrong with you?” asked Rainbow Dash. “Let just ignore Peirce and just go whatever city the next element is.” Muttered Jeff. “There’s something else I have to tell you.” Said Twilight. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} However as the train started to board she decided to wait until they were on the train… “So wait, you mean that weird bird thing can kill us if it touches us.” Said Troy. “I’m sure it can make other animals too.” Said Twilight. “We already knew all this.” Said Jeff. “Expect for the death part.” Corrected Abed. “Yes, except for the death part.” Said Jeff, “All we now know is that why and they confirmed our theories.” They all shrugged realizing he was right. “Does he do that a lot?” asked Rainbow Dash to Britta. “All the time.” Answered Britta. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} In Canterlot at the seal, another bird shaped golem popped out, knowing where the next element was. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} A couple hours later they got to Trottingham, which was a quaint little village, that was very similar to Ponyville. “So this is Trottingham.” Said Troy, “It’s just like I managed it. Twilight decided to ask the nearest pony, “Excuse me have you ever seen a statue of a sphere on a pillar.” “No I ‘ave never seen a statue like that, sorry I couldn’t ‘elp.” Responded the pony. “Was that a Cockney pony?” asked Britta. “Now’s not the time.” Said Jeff. “Sine I’m not needed here, I’m going to look for those Golems.” Said Abed. “Are you sure you can handle it.” Said Twilight. “Don’t worry, I’ve figure out my magic, I also figure out how to use it like a proton pack from Ghostbusters, but instead of putting in the trap I’m just going to hold on it until it gets destroyed by the element of life.” Said Abed. “What?” asked Twilight. “I’ll tell you about it on the way back.” Said Abed. Abed walked off leaving 5 of the native ponies confused. “I think somepony should go look after him.” Said Twilight. “Since I already found my element I’ll go look after him.” Said Troy. “Me too.” Said Pinkie. Troy flew after Abed while Pinkie hopped away. They began to search, the town for the statue. “So Applejack, why did you buck Peirce again.” Said Rainbow Dash. “I already said I don’t want to talk about it.” Said Applejack. “I’ll explain it.” Said Peirce. “Please don’t.” said Britta. That was when they approached by an old mare. “Excuse me, I heard you were searching for a statue of a ball on a pillar.” Said the old mare, “It’s over by the blacksmith’s.” “Thank you.” Said Twilight. The old mare decided to tell her how to get to the blacksmith, however during this conversation the golem landed. After creating a crater it shape shifted into a gopher and dug underground. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} And on they headed to where the element was, they saw it. “Good we’re almost there.” Said Rainbow Dash. That was when the ground beneath them crumbled beneath them, only the three Pegasus were able to react. “Oh no… oh no…” whispered Fluttershy. “Hey you all right!” called out Rainbow Dash. “We’re fine.” Called out Annie. The ground was in large chunks, Shirley and Applejack were on one, Annie, Jeff and Twilight were on another and Rarity and Peirce were on a third that held the element of life. “Hey, this must be a sign that this is mine.” Said Peirce. Peirce touched and got an electric shock. “What could have caused this?” asked Twilight. That was when they felt something rumbling below them, and the golem jumped out of the ground still in its gopher form. “That explains a lot…” mumbled Jeff. “Rainbow Dash, Britta, do you think you can fly Shirley and Annie to it?” asked Jeff. “Wait… why?” asked Twilight. “You said it was Hope right, I doubt I’m the one who represents it the most.” Said Jeff. “I don ‘t know.” Said Britta, “I’m still not used to the whole I can fly thing.” “Didn’t worry I can do both!” said Rainbow Dash. Rainbow Dash flew towards Annie, picked her up and put on the right piece of rock. However the rock began to sink some more. Annie walked slowly towards the element as to not disturb the ground breaking apart around her. She was about to touch it, but the golem came out of the ground with a loud shriek aimed itself at Annie. However before it could even get near her, it was tied up by a yellow rope made of magic. It was Abed who was with Pinkie and Troy. “Come on hurry it up already.” Said Abed who was clearly playing a character, probably one of the Ghostbusters. Annie touched it and there was a bright flash of light destroying the golem. When the light died she was holding the element of life which took the form of her cutie mark it gem being sky blue. “Looks like everything is going to be fine.” Said Pinkie. That was when the ground under Peirce gave way sending him into a crevice. “Peirce?” asked Annie. “I’m okay…” said Peirce. “So who’s going to get him out?” asked Rainbow Dash. “Not me.” muttered Applejack. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile in Canterlot, within its seal Singularly groaned, it had sensed that another one of its Golems was defeated. Oh well… it knew something better would come along. Because it made another struggle against the seals and the second seal broke. It was just one step closer. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Upstairs, Princess Luna checked up on her sister. “I think they found the third Element of Life.” Said Princess Luna. “I think so too.” Princess Celestia smiled. “By the way, I was wondering did you mention that the Golems can shape shift?” asked Princess Luna. Princess Celestia blinked, she face hoofed. She couldn’t believe she had forgotten that one little detail. That was when throne of the guards in charge of the seal came up. “The second seal has broken.” Said the guards. Princess Celestia sighed, at least for the time being they were one step ahead of Singularity. Return to Manehattan Return to Manehattan Chapter 6: Return to Manehattan In the seal, Singularity began to move to try to break the seal once again. Outside, the seal glowed brightly then turned black… the next seal has broken… {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} In the Ponyville Library on other hand… “You will not defeat the Legit Forts of Novel Scotia” said Troy as he sent out paper balls. “The Fantastic Castle of Book land will never lose!” yelled Pinkie as she fired back. Twilight walked up to them. “Those weren’t ripped from the books, were they?” asked Twilight. “No of course not.” Said Pinkie. That is when Spike ran out of Pinkie’s fort and burped out a scroll, he knew Twilight would kill him if he burnt them… “I know I say this all the time but why does he still live in the library?” asked Troy. Abed shrugged. Twilight paled, “The next seal has broken.” “I found the next location.” Said Annie. “Love resides on an island, but it’s not the long island but the small one.” Said Twilight. Annie nodded. “Manehattan.” Said Annie. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} And so they all once again gathered on the train. “They named a place Manehattan?” asked Peirce, “Are these horse puns getting worse, please tell I’m not the only one who thinks so.” Of course they all ignored him. “This is going to be a problem.” Said Twilight looking at maps, “It might take days to find it, it’s one of the most populated cities in Equestria…” “I do have relatives but I don’t know if I should ask them.” Said Applejack, “I haven’t seen them in years and we haven’t gotten along since I was a filly, it’s a long story.” “We’ll do that if we can’t find it within a day.” Said Twilight. “Do we really have to hurry though, I mean the seal’s not that weak yet.” Said Pinkie. “We can’t take that chance.” Said Twilight, “The faster we get it, the safer everypony will be.” “Don’t worry I lived in New York… which has our version of Manehattan I’ll be able to find it.” Said Britta. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Sometime later when they got into Manehattan… “Get out my face rube!” yelled a pony Britta tried to ask about the orb. “I’m not the rube! You’re the rube.” Said Britta. “You’re the worst.” Muttered the pony who walked away. The others watched. “I’m guessing I’m not the only who knew that was going to happen.” Muttered Jeff. “Let’s go find somepony who’s nicer.” Said Pinkie. Twilight used her magic to drag Britta away knowing it was probably better for her to not escalate the fight. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They found a food salesman who didn’t seemed like a jerk so they asked him. “Excuse me do you know where a certain statue is?” asked Twilight. “Que?” asked the pony. “Seriously!” yelled Jeff. “Que?” responded the pony. “Does anyone remember any Spanish?” asked Annie. The other 6 from their group stared at her, she should have known the answer to that… That was when a pair of ponies with oranges as cutie marks walked past them, they stopped. “Applejack… is that you?” asked the mare. Applejack froze when she said that. “Oh hello Aunt Orange… Uncle Orange.” Said Applejack. “What are you doing here in Manehattan?” asked her Uncle Orange. “We’re doing something for Princess Celestia.” Said Applejack. “Oh that’s right, you and your friends saved Equestria a few times.” Said Aunt Orange. “Yeah…” said Applejack. “Are these your friends?” Said Uncle Orange. “Yes.” Said Applejack. “Excuse me… do you know where a statue of a sphere on a pillar is?” asked Twilight. “No…” said Uncle Orange. “I have never seen such a thing.” Said Aunt Orange. “Well see ya.” Said Applejack. “Can you at least come over for lunch.” Said Aunt Orange. “I can’t, I have something, it’s just that we’re trying to find that statue.” Said Applejack. “Don’t worry it won’t take too long.” Said Aunt Orange. Jeff sighed, “Look we have to find that statue before something happens that will end up destroying the city.” Said Jeff, “We really need to do this.” “Oh come now.” Said Rarity, “I think one little lunch won’t hurt anything.” “Now’s not the time.” Said Applejack. “I am hungry.” Said Pinkie. “So am I.” said Peirce. “You don’t want to eat lunch with them” whispered Applejack. “What’s that supposed to mean?” asked Peirce. “The portions are really small.” Mumbled Applejack. “How small are we talking about?” asked Pinkie. “A leaf and a piece of carrot.” Said Applejack. “If you want something more filling then perhaps we can go to a restaurant.” Said Uncle Orange. Applejack sighed, she knew that her aunt and uncle wouldn’t stop unless they went out for lunch. “Fine…” muttered Applejack, “But it has to be short.” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile in Canterlot, Singularity began to struggle against the seal since it felt the next one was weakened as well. On the outside the next seal burnt out. Singularity decided to send out a Golem unlike the others… something a little more larger… A large back mass began to escape the castle without destroying anything, after all it would be very bad if the Princesses were to find out about this one. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile at a fancy restaurant in downtown Manehattan, at large table the rather large group sat. “So you are the student of Princess Celestia.” Said Uncle Orange to Twilight. “Why yes I am.” Said Twilight feeling a little uncomfortable, she had usually gotten that feeling before, when somepony wanted to get it in with Princess Celestia. On the other hand Rarity was having a wonderful; conversation with Aunt Orange. Applejack sighed. “So what’s wrong?” asked Annie who was next to her. “It’s complicated.” Sighed Applejack, “Knowing my uncle he probably wants to get to know the heroes of Equestria.” “Well its not that bad is it?” asked Annie. “You see when I was filly I decided to move in with them. And when I left I could tell they resented me.” Said Applejack. “I see.” Said Annie. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} On the other side of the table there was another conversation. “By the way, what happened to that pony from Baltimare?” asked Shirley. “She got a new cart and ran out of town.” Said Abed. “Because the villagers were apparently after her.” Said Pinkie. “Seriously?” asked Jeff. “I know right, I feeling like we’re breaking show don’t tell…” said Abed. That was when there were loud thumps, as if it was something gigantic was walking. That was when they heard screams of “Dragon Attack! Dragon Attack!” The patrons of the restaurant began to whisper amongst themselves. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They all left the restaurant and saw the dragon, which was pure black. “That’s no ordinary dragon.” Said Troy and Abed at the same time. They all stared at the two then looked back at the dragon. “We need to do something.” Said Annie. “I don’t know…” said Twilight. “Maybe try to find as many unicorns as we can to hold it off while the rest of us find the element.” Said Annie coming up with an idea. “Good thinking Annie.” Said Twilight. “Though if the plan involves a lot of fish then I’m out.” Said Abed. “What?” asked Twilight who shook her head as Troy laughed. Jeff turned to the Oranges. “Are you positive you never seen a statue like the one we mentioned before?” asked Jeff, “Because if we find it we’ll be able to stop that thing.” “Wait… that statue, I’ve seen it before.” Said Aunt Orange. “What?” asked Applejack. “Yes, I’ve seen it many times in fact.” Said Aunt Orange. “Why didn’t you say anything before?” asked Applejack. “I didn’t think it was that important.” Said Aunt Orange, “In fact I was planning to bring it up during lunch.” Applejack glared at her aunt, that was when the floodgates opened. “So you knew the whole time, lied to us because you wanted to have lunch with us?” asked Applejack. “Not exactly… I wanted to ask why you needed to find it.” Said Aunt Orange. Before Applejack could say any more Twilight spoke up. “That’s no important right now, we have to make sure it doesn’t destroy the city.” Said Twilight, “Take them to the statue now…” “Okay…” whispered Aunt Orange. “What can the rest of us do?” asked Uncle Orange. “Find as many unicorns that we can tell them to send magic at it.” Said Twilight, “It’s weak against magic.” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile in Ponyville Spike was cleaning up some of the mess from the book forts, when she suddenly burped up again letter. “I hope it isn’t bad news.” He thought to himself. He read it and froze, another seal broke, and the Princesses were planning measures to make sure another one doesn’t break until all of the elements of Life were gathered. “This isn’t good…” said Spike. He had no way to get into contact with Twilight either, he really hope they would be home soon. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back in Manehattan, Twilight, Rarity, Annie and Abed as well as about 20 unicorns that were gathered all stood a safe distance from the dragon like golem. That was when they fired beam of pure magic at it. The dragon like Golem screamed in pain, not only that but more unicorns joined in as well. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile another group consisting of the three that hasn’t found the elements yet, Applejack, her aunt and Fluttershy (who joined to make sure that Applejack wouldn’t get into a fight with her aunt) all went searching for the element. “Are you sure it’s it.” Said Applejack. “Will you please stop asking me.” Said Aunt Orange. “Now’s not the time.” Said Fluttershy. Aunt Orange sighed… “This way.” She said. Back at the dragon like golem word had spread that’s its weakness was magic it helped that Rainbow Dash, Troy, Pinkie and Britta spread the word, so many more unicorns had joined in. However the ones that started were starting to become exhausted, Rarity had to stop after a few minutes, as did a few others, after a while, Annie did too. “You all right?” asked Rarity. “I’m fine…” sighed Annie. IT was a good thing that more beams were starting to cover the dragon like golem. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile with the group searching they found what looked to be the statue. “Is that really it?” asked Fluttershy. “Only one way to find out.” Said Jeff, “Peirce.” “What?” asked Peirce. “Come on touch it.” Said Jeff. “Why? We both know Love is probably going to be Shirley’s.” said Peirce. “It might be yours” said Jeff, “I mean you did get married 7 times.” “Maybe you're right.” Said Peirce buying it. He touched and got shocked. “Jeffery.” scolded Shirley. “You just wanted to see him get electrocuted.” muttered Fluttershy. Jeff shrugged, while Shirley touched it, there was a very bright light that shone though out the city, destroying the dragon like golem. Cheers erupted when the dragon disappeared. Shirley now held golden necklace with a reddish-pink gem that was shaped like a brownie in the middle. “What just happened?” asked Aunt Orange. “It’s an element of life.” Said Applejack, “The reason why we came.” “I see…” said her aunt. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile where the golem stood the unicorns that could celebrate did so… However many of them were exhausted. “You okay?” asked Rainbow Dash flying towards them. “Just need to rest for a few hours.” Said Twilight. “I don’t think I’m going to do that again.” Sighed Annie. “I’m just glad it didn’t hide behind buildings.” Said Abed. They all stared at him. “The American Godzilla movies.” asked Troy flying down next to Abed, “He made another reference to it earlier with the fish. “Oh…” said Annie. Twilight and Rarity looked at each other. Applejack’s uncle Orange walked up to them, “I believe that it’s probably wise to rest up at our penthouse.” Twilight wanted to say no, however… “We’d love to.” Said Rarity. “I think we should wait until Applejack gets back to make the decision.” Said Twilight. “Why?” asked Rarity, “I’m exhausted and I get to be in a Manehattan Penthouse…” “Do you want to hurt Applejacks’ feelings?” asked Twilight. Rarity remained silent. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Rainbow Dash, Britta and Pinkie rejoined them less than a minute later, however it was 10 minutes later and Applejack was told of the offer. “I’d rather not.” Said Applejack. “Why not?” asked Uncle Orange. “You just want to get in good with Twilight Sparkle don’t you?” asked Applejack’s aunt. “What?” asked Uncle Orange. “I apologize for my behavior the last few years, I understand that the farm is where you belong.” Said her Aunt. “What?” asked Uncle Orange and Applejack. “I know that we treat you badly after you left, but I really wanted my sister’s daughter around…” she said who went quiet. “Oh man…” mumbled Troy. Troy and Abed sometime debated which one was related to Applejack, Abed always said her aunt, Troy said her uncle. “Just live your life the way you want.” Said her aunt, “And maybe my husband won’t use you for social standing. Maybe I will come for a visit soon.” Applejack nodded. “Well it looks like every thing is wrapped up.” Said Britta. “You barely did anything.” Said Jeff. “Didn’t I?” asked Britta. “No…” said Jeff. “Well I probably did more than you.” said Britta. “Who are throes ponies again?” asked Aunt Orange. “Don’t ask.” Said Applejack. “By the way, do you two even have names?” asked Pinkie. “What do you mean?” asked Uncle Orange. “I think we should go now.” Said Applejack. “That would probably be a good idea.” Mumbled Twilight knowing it was going to get weird. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} And so it was a quiet train ride as Twilight, Rarity and Annie were sleeping. “Why aren’t you exhausted?” asked Rainbow Dash. “I didn’t use that much.” Said Abed. Everyone shrugged and ignored it, it was probably best not to think about it. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Eventually they got back to Ponyville and they all went to their homes/ places they were staying at for the time. Twilight and Annie arrived back at the library. “You look exhausted.” Said Spike. “You have no idea.” Said Annie. “It might be a bad idea to spring this on you.” Said Spike. “What do you mean?” asked Twilight. Spike handed her the letter and Twilight froze. “No, no… this was sent today?” asked Twilight. Spike nodded. Twilight fell to the floor thanks to the combination of exhaustion and the bad news. “You okay?” asked Spike. “I’m fine…” responded Twilight. She hoped that the seal would hold out… after if it didn’t then it would mean doom for everyone who lived in the universe. Fan Service: Good or Bad?Chapter 5: Fan Service: Good or Bad? Twilight and Annie were looking though a massive pile of books trying to figure out the next riddle. “By the ocean the orioles fly across the sky, that is where Peace is.” Read Twilight, “It’s Baltimare! OF course, orioles…” “We should tell everyone else.” Said Annie. That was when they noticed the book forts. Two of them, both of them made of up the books that weren’t placed back during the studying. “What’s this?” asked Twilight. That was when Troy and Abed popped their heads up from one of the book forts. “Hey Twilight.” Said Troy. “Sorry.” Said Spike popping up from the other one. “You let them do this.” Said Twilight. “You weren’t putting any of them back.” Said Spike. “So you let them build book forts?“ asked Twilight, who face hoofed, she looked at Annie who didn’t seem surprised by this fact, “So… do they do this a lot?” “Not that much.” Said Annie, “Though they do live in a blanket fort.” She mumbled. Twilight sighed, “You can keep it, but you have to reshelf them when you’re finally done.” “Fine…” said the four in the forts, and that included Pinkie who was in Spike’s fort. “Can you get everyone else, we found the next location.” Said Annie. After they left, Twilight turned to Annie. “Seriously?” she asked, “They live in a blanket fort?” “Yes.” Sighed Annie, “And I’m not getting into Fluffy Town.” “What?” asked Twilight. “Don’t ask.” Sighed Annie. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Sometime later they managed to get to the train station and boarded the train. “Great… Baltimare.” Muttered Rainbow Dash, “We have to go to that Tartarus Hole.” “Tartarus Hole?” asked Peirce. “Tartarus is the ancient Greek equivalent of hell.” Said Abed, “So it means hellhole.” “So what’s wrong with the city.” Said Shirley. “Well you see the economy of Baltimare collapsed and…” said Twilight, however she was cut off by the former study group going “Oh…” “Yeah, a bad economy does turn places into Hellholes.” Said Peirce, “Just look at Detroit.” “What?” asked Twilight. “Never mind.” Said Jeff. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They arrived at the city to empty buildings everywhere as well as graffiti. “Let’s just find that Element quickly.” Said Jeff. That was when a unicorn colt showed up with his horn glowing. “Give me all of your cash now!” he yelled. Applejack ended up bucking him 20 feet away. “I just remembered I have to do something while here.” Said Abed. “What?” asked Twilight. “Just something.” Said Abed who just walked off. However both Troy and Annie got a strange feeling. “You don’t think?” asked Troy. “No… he doesn’t have his costume.” Said Annie. “What?” asked Pinkie. “We need to find it quickly.” Said Rarity, “I want to leave here as soon as possible.” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They went on their search, a few minutes into it, they heard music. “What’s that?” asked Twilight. “I’m guessing it’s just ghetto music for you ponies.” Said Peirce, “You know like rap music.” They all glared at Peirce. “You know there’s something familiar about that music.” Said Twilight. “Oh let’s go see it! It sounds fun.” Said Pinkie. Pinkie ran off ahead to where the music came from. “I don’t know why but I have a bad feeling about this.” Said Jeff. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They got to what appeared to be the city’s square where they saw a cart that was the source of the music. “It can’t be.” Muttered Rarity. “What’s she’s doing here.” Muttered Rainbow Dash. That was when the cart opened up revealing a stage, followed by a stream of fireworks. “It’s her.” Muttered Applejack. “Let’s just get out of here before she notices us…” said Rainbow Dash. “Why? What’s going on?” asked Britta. That was when a blue pony appeared on stage. “Greetings everypony! I am the great and powerful Trixie!” yelled the pony. It was met by a cough as she noticed the rather bored looking crowd. The pony named Trixie muttered something under breath. That was when she saw a certain somepony in the crowd. “Well, well, well if isn’t Twilight Sparkle.” Said Trixie. “Oh no…” muttered Twilight. “If we had a distraction.” Said Pinkie. “Is that Bat Man!” yelled Troy pointing to a building. “No one knows who that is.” Muttered Jeff. “No… he’s right.” Said Britta. On top of a building was somepony dressed like Bat Man, they could tell he was a unicorn because of his horn… “You have got to be kidding me!” yelled Jeff. “Is that Abed?” asked Rainbow Dash. “It is.” Sighed Shirley. “What is he wearing.” Said Rarity. That was when “Bat Man” jumped off the roof. Well more like tumble off the roof. “I’m going to go check on him.” Said Fluttershy. Trixie on the other and saw the distraction as her chance to confront Twilight. “Twilight Sparkle!” yelled Trixie running over to Twilight blocking her path. “Oh hello Trixie!” said Twilight nervously. “You dare upstage Trixie back in Ponyville, well you have another thing coming.” Said Trixie. “I’m sorry Trixie, but I have a mission to do.” Said Twilight. “We don’t have to do it right now.” Said Troy. “Yes, we do.” Said Twilight. “Actually it’s right over there.” Said Troy. Troy pointed to the stone on the pillar, which was not only part of the town square but right in front of the building “Bat Man was on.” “Or we can get it right now, find Abed and bolt.” Said Jeff. “Well I want to see Twilight go up against Trixie.” Said Troy. “See this Pegasus wants to see us duel, give the crowd what it wants.” Said Trixie. Twilight sighed, “Fine...” she muttered, “I’ll go up against you Trixie.” “Troy, why did you do that?” asked Annie. “Do what?” asked Troy. Annie grabbed Troy. “Why did you goad Twilight into doing that?” asked Annie. “You know I’m a Trixie fan.” Answered Troy. Annie stared at him and sighed heavily. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Nearby Fluttershy checked on “Bat Man.” “Abed, are you okay?” asked Fluttershy. “Don’t worry.” Said Bat Man in an extremely gravely voice, “I’m fine, it was nothing for me.” “Are you okay?” asked Fluttershy. "I’m fine.” Said “Bat Man”, “I’m Bat Mane and the city needs me.” “Bat Mane” ran off, tripping over the cape before continuing. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Fluttershy flew over to the others “I think there’s something wrong with Abed.” Said Fluttershy. “Is he imitating George Clooney?” asked Troy. “I… maybe?” responded Fluttershy who didn’t know who George Clooney was. “Is Abed speaking in a gravelly voice?” asked Annie clearing things up. “Yes.” Answered Fluttershy. “Then he’s fine.” Said Troy. “Well fine for Abed.” Said Jeff. “Shouldn’t someone watch him?” asked Fluttershy. “Let’s just leave him be for now.” Sighed Jeff, “He’ll be fine, unless guns and knives exist.” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile in Canterlot, at the seal, Singularity began to create another golem. It flew off to Baltimare, knowing that’s where the group was. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back in Baltimare… “And now we begin to see how’s magic is stronger!” said Trixie as the fire works began to shoot off, “Now does anypony have a competition.” “Mud wrestling!” yelled a random stallion in the crowd. “Yeah! Mud wrestling!” agreed Peirce. “I hear using magic to lift weights!” said Trixie. “No you didn’t!” yelled Pierce. In the crowd the ponies stared at Peirce. “What? I was just agreeing with the crowd.” Said Peirce. Twilight face hoofed while Trixie rolled her eyes and unveiled the weights. Trixie lifted half of them. “Beat that Twilight Sparkle.” Said Trixie. Twilight sighed and easily lifted them all. Trixie blinked then remember something. “Trixie had forgotten that you had lifted an Ursa Minor.” Mumbled Trixie, “However Trixie is not done yet.” Twilight sighed, this was going to be a long day. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Elsewhere, “Bat Mane” had found the colt from earlier trying to rob a mare. “Now give me all your cash!” said the Colt. That was when “Bat Mane”, jumped down from the building using a magical grappling hook… landing on the colt. “Are you okay?” asked the Mare. “I’m fine.” Said “Bat Mane”, “Are you alright?” “I’m okay.” Said the Mare confused. Bat Mane got up and ran off but not before saying “I’m Bat Mane.” “That’s it! I’m moving to Las Pegasus.” Muttered the colt. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back in the town square, Trixie continued the competition… “Are there any new suggestions from the crowd!” Called out Trixie. “Pole dancing!” yelled a random Stallion. “Yeah! Pole dancing!” yelled Pierce. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} In the crowd Shirley shook her head at Peirce. “What in tarnation is wrong with you?” asked Applejack. “What?” asked Peirce. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back on stage, Trixie muttered something under her breath before announcing what the real challenge. “We will now tell of the biggest threat that we have ever faced using illusions.” Twilight sighed, she wasn’t that good with illusionary magic. Trice used her fire works to create a cloud to protect her illusion. “I the Great and Powerful Trixie once faced off agent an Ursa Minor, granted it had won.” Trixie smirked, she knew that Twilight while Twilight had defeated the Ursa Minor, living in such a Podunk town, that’s probably the worst she faced. “It’s your turn Twilight Sparkle.” Said Trixie. Twilight sighed and realized something… Trixie didn’t know anything about her. “I’m not going to do this.” Said Twilight. “What? Why? Are you giving up?” Said Trixie, “Trixie is right, the Ursa Minor is the worst things you have ever faced.” “No it’s not.” Said Twilight. “Oh really Twilight Sparkle? What have you faced that’s stronger than a Ursa Minor?” asked Trixie. “This is pointless, right now I’m trying to get the Elements of Life with my friends to stop those black monsters that have started to destroy Equestria.” Said Twilight. Trixie froze, she remembered hearing about the black monsters destroying part of Cloudsdale as well as Trottingham. “Why? Why have you been assigned to stopping them?” asked Trixie, “That would be assigned to the Elements of Harmony.” That was when it struck Trixie. “You’re one of the Bearers of the Elements of Harmony? Aren’t you?” asked Trixie. Before Twilight could say anymore. A golem swooped down from the sky, aiming for Twilight. Even though the ponies of Baltimare had been rather apathetic before, they were now screaming and running away. The bird like golem landed on the ground then shifted into a deer shape. “What is that thing!” yelled Trixie. “Don’t let it touch you, it will destroy you.” Said Twilight. Trixie paled. The deer like Golem ran towards the wagon, Twilight teleported away, but Trixie dodged it, only barely. While Trixie wasn’t touched by the deer like golem, unfortunately several of the safety mechanisms for her fireworks were destroyed, it created a large explosion. “Oh no.” whispered Trixie. That was when Bat Mane swooped down and grabbed Trixie before she could be engulfed by it. “Bat Mane” landed on the ground with the blue unicorn rather gracefully. “Thank you…” said Trixie who began to blush. “It was my job.” Said “Bat Mane”. Twilight had reappeared where friends were standing. “Do you think it’s dead?” asked Troy. That was when the smoke cleared and the deer was still standing there. The deer ran towards the group when both Twilight and Bat Mane created magical ropes to tie it. “Get it now!” yelled Twilight. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} The four who had yet to get their elements went to the pillar. “Okay who’s first?” asked Jeff. “Peirce.” Said Britta and Shirley. “What did I do?” asked Peirce. “You’re the one who tried to get them to mud wrestle and pole dance.” Said Jeff. “Fine.” Muttered Peirce. Peirce touched it and once again got zapped. “Britta your next.” Said Jeff. “Why me?” asked Britta. “Just go Britta.” Said Shirley. “Fine.” Mumbled Britta. She grabbed it and there was a bright light. It destroyed the deer like golem. When the light died down Britta held up a golden necklace with a peace sign shaped dark green gem. “Oh look! I represent peace.” Said Britta, “Britta for the win!” “You can gloat on the train ride back but not after that.” Said Jeff. “Oh come on.” Said Britta. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile Trixie regained her sight. “What is Trixie going to do?” asked Trixie. “It will be fine, if you were able to get a another wagon from the Ursa Minor Incident, then you’ll get another.” Said “Bat Mane.” “I will.” Said Trixie blushing. “Bat Mane” began to leave. “Wait, will Trixie ever see you again?” asked Trixie. “Who knows.” Said “Bat Mane”, “Perhaps you will see me in the night, where I will protect those that need protecting or perhaps you will never see me again. I’m Bat Mane.” “Bat Mane” ran off leaving Trixie saddened. “You okay?” asked Annie. “Trixie is fine.” Sighed Trixie. “Don’t worry, it’s normal to fall for Abed when he gets into one of his characters.” Said Annie “What do you mean?” asked Trixie. That was when Abed showed up. “Hey, did I miss anything?” he acted causally. “Where have you been, you missed the awesomest thing ever!” said Troy. Everyone looked at Troy. “Seriously?” asked Twilight. Trixie realized that “Bat Mane” was Abed and couldn’t believe she fell for him. “Wait… does that mean…” said Trixie. Annie smiled nervously and laughed. “Well it looks like we found the Element of Life, let’s go back to Ponyville.” Said Twilight. “Wait!” yelled Trixie, “You are going to tell Trixie who you really are!” Twilight looked at her friends, who all gave her looks, most of them said “Tell her.” “Fine…” muttered Twilight. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} And Twilight told Trixie that she was Princess Celestia’s personal student… on the train ride back to Ponyville. “Why are you taking the train back with us again?” asked Jeff. “Because Trixie isn’t getting a new wagon in Baltimare!” said Trixie. “Will you please stop referring to your self in the third person? It’s annoying.” Said Peirce. “No… Trixie will not, esspeiclly to a pony who encouraged Trixie to pole dance and mud wrestle.” Said Trixie. And so they return to Ponyville with the Element of Life, they were now at the midpoint and more than half way done. But they still had a lot to do, until Equestria was saved and they could go home.
It Wasn’t Meant to Explode! It Wasn’t Meant to Explode! My Little Community Friendship is Awesome By Emma Iveli Chapter 1: It Wasn’t Meant to Explode! They were known as the Greendale 7, formerly referred to at the “Study Group”, Jeff Winger a former lawyer who was disbarred for having a phony bachelors degree, Peirce Hawthorn a rather old heir to a moist toilette fortune, Britta Perry a former protester (and still makes a stink whenever something happens), Annie Edison a former adderall addict and high school drop out who managed to clean herself up, Troy Barnes a football player who got injured and lost his scholarship, Shirley Bennett who after getting divorced decided to start her own business and Abed Nadir… who was weird… really, really weird… All them became a group as friends (and a study group) at Greendale Community College… however… It had been a month, a month since the 7 of them were. Most of them had put it behind them that Dean Pelton had changed his minds turned them into scapegoats, Abed was still convinced that he was replaced by an imposter for some reason, within a week he had started staking out the college, thankfully Troy came up with the perfect idea! Build a working replica from their favorite show, Inspector Spacetime, and they were done. “I present to you the real X7 Dimensioniser.” Revealed Troy in full on Constable Reggie mode. He removed a sheet revealing the perfect model of a British telephone booth. “Indeed with this we can go into any time, any place and any universe.” Explained Abed in full on Inspector mode. Their friends were less than impressed. “Oh yay… you built an old phone booth.” Mumbled Jeff fiddling with his phone. “This is no ordinary phone booth it is designed have just enough room for everyone who enters.” Explained Troy. “And it is now our maiden voyage.” Said Abed, “it might be a little uncomfortable, make due with what you have.” “No in hell am I getting in there!” yelled Peirce. “I think don’t all of us are going to fit.” Mumbled Shirley. “Come on you guys, they’ve been working hard on this for the past three weeks.” Said Annie, since she lived with the two, she knew that it better to feed this delusion than the other one. “Besides, do you want Abed arrested again?” asked Britta. The other three groaned, they didn’t want him to get arrested again, but they also knew they were out numbered. “Fine but if we all get stuck, I’m blaming you two.” Said Peirce staring at Britta and Annie. They all went into the X7 Dimensioniser to find… it was bigger on the inside, it was able to snugly fit all 7 of them. “How is this bigger on the inside?” asked Pierce. This earned a glare from Tory and Abed, that was a phrase from another show, one that had a certain rivalry with Inspector Spacetime (And was a rip off). “What?” asked Peirce. “I would rather if you not describe the X7 Dimensioniser like that.” Said Abed still not breaking character. Pierce was confused by what the meant but shrugged it off. “Now we will go to a random place in time and space we don’t know when we will be.” Said Abed. Tory began to fiddle with the controls, the X7 Dimensioniser began to lurch and shake. “This is all a show right?” asked Shirley. “The lights went dark, as it felt like they forced into a strange tube then squeezed out. Eventually it all stopped. “I’M Getting out of HERE!” yelled Pierce as his claustrophobia began to kick in. They all left the X-7 Dimensioniser to find something wrong, very, very wrong… they weren’t human any more, but rather something else… “Well this is unexpected.” Said Abed remaining clam. “YOU TURNED US INTO HORSES!” yelled Peirce. Indeed they were now horses of different colors, all of them were naked for some reason (expect for Abed’s hat), and for some reason had strange markings on well it would be described as flanks. “Do not mind the fact that we are equines.” Said Abed who was yellow, with a lampshade marking on his flank and for some reason had a horn on his forehead, “Judging by the proportions of our bodies, the colors and the types of ponies that we have become I believe that we have landed on the Planet Equestria which many people believe that if one lands on it, they become one of the dominate species of pony that resides here.” “Can someone translate that gibberish!” yelled Peirce who was red and the marking on his flank was a dollar sign. “What he means is that we somehow gotten into the world of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic.” Explained Annie who was pink, had a day planner as her mark and much like Abed had a horn. “Excuse me? How do you know?” asked Shirley who was purple and had a plate of brownies as her mark. “Well I watch it with Troy and Abed…” said Annie sheepishly, “It’s actually a really good show.” “You guys watch My Little Pony?” asked Britta who was green and her mark was a flaming peace sign the strange thing was that she had wings. “I’m not surprised. I heard it’s popular with grown men” Said Jeff, who was red with set of scales as his marking and also had a horn on his forehead, he began to look around, “Great, I lost my phone” he muttered. “As much as I would like to experimenting with the properties of Equestria we have so much to see.” Said Abed. “Yes.” Agreed Troy who was a blue green with a wrench as his mark and like Britta had wings, “After all there’s much more to the universe than ponies.” They turned back to the X7 Dimensioniser however smoke was coming out it. “I believe we should all duck and cover, at once.” Said Abed. “Why?” asked Annie. That was when suddenly it exploded. “IT just blew up!” yelled Troy breaking character and starting one of his freak outs, “We’re trapped it here! AS ponies! WE’RE TRAPPED IN AN ANOTHER UNIVERSE! AND I’M NAKED!” “Well, this has gone pear shaped indeed.” Stated Abed still in character. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} My Little Pony, My Little Pony Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahhh… (My Little Pony) I used to wonder what friendship could be (My Little Pony) Until you all shared its magic with me Big adventure Tons of fun A beautiful heart Faithful and strong Sharing kindness It's an easy feat And magic makes it all complete You have my little ponies Do you know you're all my very best friends? {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Elsewhere in the city of Canterlot, Princess Celestia was sipping tea, a taking a break from royal duties when she sensed it. “Princess? What’s wrong?” asked one of the guards. “I have to go see something.” She answered. She walked towards a chamber, she opened the doors and looked a strange circular wall, on it was with 6 glowing circles but at the top there was a one that had gone black. “Tia… you sensed it as well.” Said Princess Luna entering the same chamber. “Yes.” Answered Princess Celestia looking at her younger sister. “It will come out soon.” Whispered Princess Luna. “Don’t worry.” Said Pines Celestia, ”It’s said when the first seal breaks, they will come. The last 7 made sure of it. “Are you sure?” asked Princess Luna. Prices Celestia’s horn began to glow… she began to mentally comb though Equestria for a group that didn’t belong, she saw them next to something burning, they were also right near Ponyville, which was perfect. “They are, and they’re near Ponyville.” Said Princess Celestia. Princess Luna nodded. “I have to go write a letter to Twilight.” Said Princess Celestia. “You’re not going to tell about it, are you?” asked Princess Luna. “Do not worry, I plan to tell her and the other bearers as well as our guests when they arrive” explained Princess Celestia. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back in the field, Troy continued to freak out, and Price joined in by taking his rage out on Abed. “Why you! I’m going to turn into glue!” Yelled Pierce. However Abed used his new magic to hold back Peirce. “What the hell are you doing?” asked Peirce. “Magic.” Said Abed finally breaking character, “Listen, I have a plan to get back home.” “Oh goody.” Muttered Jeff, “Is it building another time machine?” “No… it’s to see if Princess Celestia can get us back home.” Said Abed. “Princess Celestia?” asked Britta. “She is one of the rulers of this land and she controls the sun.” explained Abed, “Many fans have declared her a goddess. I think if we are able to contact her she might be able to send us back home.” “How do we do that?” asked Britta, “I’m guessing that trying to get in contact with a Princess will be difficult.” “Okay here’s the plan, we go find Ponyville and befriend one or all of the Mane 6, after a few days we orchestrate some kind of fight where we have to learn a lesson in Friendship, because of that one of us will write a letter to Princess Celestia about what we learned however what we’re really going to write that we’re from another planet or universe and are trapped here and hopefully she’ll be able to send us back.” Explained Abed. Thanks to Abed’s plan, Troy had calmed down… however… “While I do agree that’s a good plan, please don’t write a Human in Equestria fic because that would be a terrible story.” Sighed Troy. Abed shrugged, he had no interest in writing a fic, well not any time soon. “Can you please let me go.” Said Peirce. Abed magically let Peirce go, who glared at the newly made yellow unicorn. “You know! The rest of it doesn’t understand you’re saying.” Muttered Shirley. “I guess I should explain some more.” Said Abed, “Those marks on our flanks are cutie marks, they show off our special talent, mine a lampshade, which means my special talent is being meta.” “Mines a wrench.” Said Troy who sighed, he was hopping for something else, “That’s cool, I guess.” “Mine’s… an day planner.” Said Annie, “So that means my special talent is organization…” “That’s right, Jeff’s a set of scales meaning he’s a lawyer, Peirce’s means his special talent is being rich, Shirley’s is baking… and Britta…” Abed paused, “ I haven no idea… I think it might be that you ruin peace!” “Hey!” yelled Britta, “I don’t ruin peace.” “Maybe it means that Britta is the worst.” Said Jeff. Britta glared at him. “All as you may or not noticed, myself, Annie and Jeff are unicorns.” Explained Abed, “We can all use telekinesis and other spells. Like how I was able to keep Peirce from attacking me.” Abed show off by removing his hat using magic. “How were you able to do that?” asked Jeff. “I don’t know.” answered Abed, “I’m guessing that Equestria has some sort of field that makes it second nature.” Jeff looked at a rock and it started floating. “Hey do you think it’s the same with me” asked Troy, “Except with using my wings?” “Try it.” Said Abed. Troy began to flap his new wings and quickly took flight, he immediately began to do many flips and flips. “This is awesome!” he yelled. “As you can tell Pegasi can fly but they can also manipulate clouds and the weather.” Said Abed. “What about me and Shirley?” asked Peirce. “You’re Earth Ponies…” said Abed, “You can grow food and are also super strong.” “So we got the short end of the stick.” Muttered Peirce. “Pretty much.” Said Abed. “Oh great…” muttered Peirce, “We can grow food… that’s awesome…” “Though to be fair, unicorns and Pegasi can’t.” explained Abed. “Hey! Guys!” yelled Troy from above them, “I see Ponyville!” “Before we go, does anyone have any more questions?” asked Abed. “Yeah, why aren’t Tory and Shirley Zebras?” asked Peirce. “I’m guessing that it only turns people into ponies and not any of the other species of this world.” Guessed Abed. “Wow, Peirce, I didn’t think you watched the cartoon.” Said Annie. “What cartoon?” asked Peirce. Annie blinked in confusion then she realized it, “Peirce!” she whined. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} In Ponyville, Twilight was reading a book while take notes. “Twilight!” yelled Spike coming in with a letter, “I just got a letter from Princess Celestia.” “What does it say?” asked Twilight. Spike opened it and read it. “My Dearest Student Twilight Sparkle, there is something of grave importance I need to you tell, I need you and your friends to find 7 ponies that should have just come into town today. All 13 of you then need to come to Canterlot. Signed your teacher Princess Celestia.” “7 new ponies coming into town?” asked Spike. Twilight wondered what that should mean. Twilight sighed, “I think we should see Pinkie Pie first.” Said Twilight. “Oh right, she should know if any new pony comes into town.” Said Spike. Twilight couldn’t shake off a sense of worry, a sense that something bad was going to happen. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Just outside of town, the rag tag group of misfits headed to their destination, with Troy continuing to fly while the rest walked. “I’m surprised none of you are freaking out about this.” Said Abed. “Well Troy already freaked out for the rest of us.” Said Shirley. “And besides, it could be worse.” Said Britta. “Yeah, we could have landed in a post apocalyptic future filled with cannibals, or a barren waste land that could have killed us instantly or…” listed off Abed. “We get it.” Muttered Shirley. “We’re in a little girl’s dream world filled with ponies.” Said Jeff, “The worst that can happen is probably getting kidnapped by dog monsters.” Abed and Annie stopped and stared at him. “What?” asked Jeff. “Jeff, how did you know there was about an episode about that?” asked Annie. “What, it was a educated guess about something.” Said Jeff. Abed shrugged and Annie wondered if Jeff was a closet Brony. That was when they got to the edge of Ponyville. “We should expect the first one we meet is Pinkie Pie. But if she isn’t the first member of the mane 6 I want Peirce to keep quiet if we meet Rainbow Dash.” Said Abed. “Why?” asked Peirce. Troy landed next to Peirce, “No offence, but if you say what we think you’re going to say to her, she’s going to kill you.” “What is she an obvious Lesbian?” asked Peirce, “Then again her name is Rainbow Dash so I’m sure it is.” “He is going to die.” Mouthed Troy to Annie and Abed. Both of them nodded, unless somepony stopped her, Peirce was not long for this world. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They headed into town, while Britta, Shirley, Peirce and Jeff (possibly) didn’t know who they were looking for, Annie, Troy and Abed did. Thankfully in less than a minute after arriving Pinkie showed up. “Hi! Rose! Hi! Daisy! Hi Lily!” said Pinkie to the flower trio, and that was when she saw the former study group, she let out a loud gasp, “New Ponies!” Pinkie Pie ran off to get something. “Is she one of those 6 we’re supposed to be searching for?” asked Shirley. “Pinkie Pie, her special talent is making ponies happy.” Explained Abed, “She’s also hyper active.” Pinkie then came back with her welcome wagon. “I never had a whole group of new ponies to make friends with!” said Pinkie. That was when she began to sing and dance. “Welcome welcome welcome A fine welcome to you Welcome welcome welcome I say how do you do? Welcome welcome welcome I say hip hip hurray Welcome welcome welcome To Ponyville today” This of course made Shirley, Britta and Peirce stare at her. “Is she insane?” asked Peirce, thankfully Pinkie was busy with the welcome to wagon to hear. “No… she’s not.” Said Abed, “This is her when she’s sane.” “You don’t want to see her when she goes insane.” Said Troy who began to shudder. When she needed, the wagon’s oven exploded with confetti while the confetti cannon exploded with cake batter covering all 7 in the stuff. “Oh looks like I accidently put confetti in the oven and caked batter in the confetti cannon again.” Said Pinkie with a huge smile Before any of them could say “What was that?”, Twilight ran over to them. “Oh I’ve been looking for you Pinkie Pie.” Said Twilight. She turned to see the group drenched in cake batter. “You’re all new in town right?” asked Twilight. “Uh… yeah…” answered Jeff. Twilight magically produced 7 towels for them to clean themselves up with. “Good then I don’t have to have Pinkie find you.” Said Twilight. “What do you mean?” asked Britta. “You see Princess Celestia has tasked me with finding you and bring you the palace.” Said Twilight, “Please don’t ask about the details, I’m unsure of them myself.” “Oh I guess I should have factored in Princess Celestia finding out about our arrival.” Said Abed. “There’s something we need to talk about first.” Said Jeff. They all went into a huddle. “So what are we going to do?” asked Jeff. “I say go with her, unless this is a weird alternate universe where she is a tyrant she must be trying to help us get home.” Said Abed. “No what I meant is about names.” Said Jeff. “I guess we can always have Abed come up with names for us.” Said Peirce. “No way, I’m still bad at coming up with names.” Said Abed, “I was planning on calling myself Hanging Lampshade…” Everyone but Peirce flinched remembering the names he came up with for Dungeons and Dragons... hey at least “Hanging Lampshade” was better than “Marrrrrrr” and “Kyle the Gnome”. “How about we say we come from a far away country that has weird names.” Said Annie. “Nice.” Said Abed. They broke the huddle and looked at Twilight and Pinkie Pie. “So can you take us to Canterlot and to this Princess of yours?” aside Jeff in the most flirtatious way possible. Annie lightly hit him ,”Don’t flirt with the Ponies.” She whispered. “Well actually we have to find some of my friends first.” Twilight. “Oh Rainbow Dash is right over there.” Said Pinkie point to Rainbow Dash who laying on a nearby cloud. “Can you go find Fluttershy, Rarity and Applejack.” Said Twilight. “Okey Dokey Loki!” said Pinkie who skipped off. “Hey Rainbow Dash!” called out Twilight. “Hey! Twilight!” said Rainbow Dash, “What’s going on?” “The Princess has summoned us to Canterlot!” called out Twilight. “Fine.” Said rainbow Dash, “I was just taking the day off anyways.” She flew down and saw the former study group. “Who are they?” asked Rainbow Dash. “Princess Celestia apparently summoned us.” Explained Jeff. “I see. I guess you heard of me.” Said Rainbow Dash, “Rainbow Dash I am the fastest flier in Equestria.” “Well I guess I heard right then.” Said Peirce, Rainbow Dash felt proud when Peirce said that séance, but it wasn’t finished, “That you’re an obvious lesbian.” “What?” asked Rainbow Dash, “What does Lesbian mean?” “We’re from another country, so we use different terms than Equestria.” Said Abed, “But I heard that here the term is Filly Fooler here.” “Wait did? You just called me a Filly Fooler?” asked Rainbow Dash. “If that means you like women then yes.” Answer Peirce. “Mares.” Translated Abed. “Abed, Stop translating Peirce.” Scolded Jeff, “Peirce, stop calling her a lesbian.” “But she is one, I mean look at her rainbow hair, it looks like she just step out of a gay rights parade.” Said Peirce. Before Rainbow Dash could do anything, Twilight magically grabbed her tail. “Don’t to try hurt him.” Said Twilight. “Did you hear what he called me.” Said Rainbow Dash. “Oh don’t mind him, that’s just how he is. He calls me one all the time.” Said Britta, “And he calls Jeff gay all the time.” “If you say so.” Said Rainbow Dash, “How do you even deal with him?” “To be honest I tune him out most of the time.” Mumbled Britta. “How bad is he?” asked Rainbow Dash. “I hope you don’t find out.” Sighed Britta. “Hey!” called out Pinkie. They turned to see Pinkie running towards them with Applejack, Rarity and Fluttershy. “So what’s going on?” asked Applejack. “I don’t know yet.” Said Twilight. “It has to with us.” Said Jeff. “Oh my.” Said Rarity, looking at Jeff, “Aren’t you a stud.” “Hey there.” Said Jeff right back at her. Before Annie could once again reprimand him, a black lighting bolt came from the sky and hit the ground, thankfully no one was hit. “What was that!” yelled Troy. They all look at the ground that the lighting hit, and what was there wasn't unnaturally clean crater, it was as if the ground the lighting touched disappeared… not vaporized, not burnt just nothing. “I think that might be one of the reasons why Princess Celestia summoned you.” Said Abed. “You think?” asked Rainbow Dash. Little did they know was that lighting bolt was the first sign of it, a being that can’t be defeated by the Elements of Harmony… well by the Elements of Harmony alone. For the former study group, this adventure would be an adventure that would be beyond their imagination… well… not beyond Abed and Troy’s imagination, but still something they would never expect in a million years to ever happen to them…
The Elements of LifeChapter 2: The Elements of Life They arrived at the train station where the daily train to Canterlot was. However those that weren’t familiar with the show couldn’t help but to stare at it. “It looks like a little girl’s toy.” Muttered Peirce. “That’s because it is.” Mumbled Annie. “I got the tickets.” Said Twilight. “Thank you so much…” said Shirley, “Um… what was your name again?” “Twilight Sparkle.” Answered Twilight. Britta tried not the snicker at the unintentional Twilight reference. “What’s so funny?” asked Twilight. “Nothing… nothing that has to with vampires…” mumbled Britta. “Muffin car?” asked Troy ignoring Britta. “Muffin car!” answered Abed. The two did that handshake and decided to ride in the muffin car. {}{}{}{}{}3{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} On the way to Canterlot the two groups of friends decided to ride separately. The Mane 6 (as they were known by fans) rode in a regular car. “What was that black lighting earlier?” asked Rainbow Dash. “I don’t know, I never heard of anything like that before.” Answered Twilight. “It’s not Discord is it?” asked Applejack. “I doubt it, trying to destroy us with lighting wasn’t his thing.” Said Rainbow Dash. “I’m sure that’s one of the reasons why we’re being summoned by Princess Celestia.” Said Twilight. “And the other reason is to get those guys to Princess Celesta.” Said Rainbow Dash. “Who are they anyways?” asked Pinkie. “All I know is they’re from another country and they use weird terms.” Said Twilight. “What do you mean weird terms?” asked Applejack. “That old guy keeps calling me a lesbian.” Muttered Rainbow Dash. “So what’s the problem?” asked Fluttershy. “It’s means filly fooler.” Muttered Rainbow Dash. “Oh…” mumbled Fluttershy. “Oh come now, Peirce might be rude but I think Jeff is quite charming.” Said Rarity. “We noticed.” deadpanned Applejack. “Do you think we’ll see them again?” asked Pinkie. “I don’t know.” Said Twilight. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} In the muffin car, the study talked about their predicament. “I can’t wait to get back to our own planet and pretend this didn’t happen.” Muttered Jeff. “Jeffery” scowled Shirley. “Look, we’re going to get back before the end of the day, it would be like we never left.” Said Jeff. “Yes, but those ponies have been so nice to us.” Said Shirley. “Not all of them, that rainbow one tried to attack me.” Said Peirce. “That’s because you called her a lesbian.” Said Britta. “But she is.” Said Pirie. “It’s a good thing Twilight did stop her, chances are she would have tried to kill you with the sonic Rainboom.” Said Abed. “Oh I wanted to see the sonic Rainboom.” Said Troy, “And Derpy… I didn’t get a chance to see Derpy.” “Derpy?” asked Britta, “They named a pony Derpy?” “Fans named her Derpy.” Explained Abed. “They used it in the show… until too many people complained that it made fun of people with disabilities.” Said Annie. “Well it must be if they named a pony Derpy.” Said Britta. “This is why we didn’t tell you about ponies.” Troy muttered. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Eventually they arrived in Canterlot and at the palace where the guards let them in. When they got to the throne room they saw Princess Celestia. The former study group couldn’t help to be in awe of the Princess. Even those that watched the series were stunned by her, sure seeing her on TV is one thing, but they could tell she was powerful and regal at the same time. “Princess Celestia.” Twilight cheerfully greeted while running towards her mentor. Princess Celestia gave a pony exultant of a hug, however she still had a look of worry on her face. “What’s wrong?” asked Twilight. “I’m amusing you were attacked by black lightning earlier.” Sighed Princess Celestia. “We were. What was it?” asked Twilight. “I’ll explain… but first.” Said Princess Celestia, she looked at the former study group. “You haven’t told them, have you?” asked Princess Celestia. “Told us what?” asked Twilight. “They’re from another universe.” Said Princess Celestia. “So wait… we’re not on another planet but a universe?” asked Peirce, “Thanks a lot Troy.” “How was I supposed to know it was going to blow up.” Muttered Troy. “Now’s not the time to argue, it’s almost over.” Said Jeff. “Wait you guys are from another universe! That is so awesome!” yelled Pinkie jumping to Jeff’s face. “We’re trying to talk to your princess… can you please get out of my face.” Said Jeff. “Fine Mr. Grumpy Pants.” Muttered Pinkie. “I can’t send you back.” Sighed Princess Celestia, “At least not yet.” “What?” asked Britta. “You see, I… no all of Equestria needs your help.” Explained Princess Celestia. “Wait are you saying the Dimensioniser malfunction was caused by destiny?” asked Abed. “Yes and no…” said Princess Celestia. “Wait, so you mean that were brought here so that we can fight some kind of evil thing and save all of Equestria?” asked Troy, “THAT IS SO AWESOME THAT I’M ALREADY IN NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY!” “But Troy, it might be dangerous.” Said Britta. “She’s right, I have to explain everything… follow me.” Said Princess Celestia. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} The elder princess led everyone to the chamber. “Before Luna became Nightmare Moon but after Discord’s defeat something arrived in Equestria.” Explained Princess Celestia. “What?” asked Twilight. They entered the chamber and saw the wall. “Singularity is what it called itself.” Explained Princess Celestia, “It wanted to completely and utterly destroy Equestria, the moon, the sun and even the stars. Unfortunately the Elements of Harmony couldn’t defeat them… not alone. The only way to defeat it was using the Elements of Life, items similar to the Elements of Harmony: Knowledge, Persistence, Hope, Love, Compassion, Peace and Willpower. However they can’t be used by Ponies from this universe… fortunately thanks to Singularity’s influence, a rip in space and time happened and 7 beings from another universe appeared and were turned into Ponies. With their help we were able to defeat it and seal it away.” Princess Celestia took a breath, “The seal which has 7 layers is breaking, Singularity is able to influence the outside world which is why it was able to attack you.” There was a silence as they let what she said sink it in. “So wait… you’re saying that we have to take up these elements of life or this universe gets destroyed.” Said Jeff, “And billions of Ponies and other creatures die?” “Yes…” said Princess Celestia, “I understand if you don’t want to help us… this isn’t your universe.” “I don’t care.” Said Troy, “I’m still in.” “While normally this is something that’s usually reserved for the Dreamatorium and playing a character since this is real and billions of lives will be at stake, I think this might be something to say yes to.” said Abed. “If Troy and Abed are in, then I’m in as well.” Said Annie. “I’ll join too, I mean Jesus wouldn’t like it if I just abandon a magical universe with ponies.” Said Shirley who muttered under her breath, “Even if they worship a goddess…” “Shirley’s right! This would be a grave injustice.” Said Britta, “After all…” “Not now Britta.” Said Jeff, “No one needs to hear you rant right now.” “What you haven’t decided yet?” asked Britta. “No I’ve decided that I’m going to help…” said Jeff, “I have my reasons and they’re none of your business, I just don’t want you to prattle on about the so called injustices of our universe while you agree to save someone else’s.” Britta glared at Jeff who just shrugged it off. “If we win what do we get in return?” asked Peirce. “A party.” Said Pinkie. “You were going to throw them a party anyways.” Mumbled Rainbow Dash. “Will I have to pay for anything?” asked Peirce. “No.” answered Pinkie confused. “Then I’m in.” said Peirce. “The last bearers were powerful magic users and put a spell on this seal that no matter what if it broke someone would come to help.” Explained Princess Celestia, “That no matter what would happen they would be the type of beings to help no matter what happens.” “So I’m guessing that these Elements of Life are in some abandoned castle somewhere in some kind of dangerous forest.” Said Jeff. “How did you know the Elements of Harmony were in a place like that?” Said Pinkie. Jeff shrugged. “No.” answered Princess Celestia. She motioned over to a pedestal, which had a stone orb on it. “They are spread through out Equestria. The past bearers thought it was a good idea.” She explained, “This is the Element of Knowledge, only the best suited barrier can pick it up, or else it will mildly shock the pony trying to grab it.” “Really?” asked Peirce. None of them wanted to try it. “Peirce, you be the first one.” Said Jeff. “Why me?” asked Peirce. “You’re the one who wants to do this because of a free party.” Said Jeff. “Fine.” Said Peirce. He touched the orb and got a “mild” shock. Because of that, he was on the floor twitching. “That wasn’t mild…” he grumbled. “Okay… who wants to go next.” Said Jeff. “I’ll go.” Said abed, “I mean it doesn’t say kind of knowledge it has to be.” Abed touched the orb and there was a bright light, when it dimmed, Abed was now holding a necklace with an orange gem it that was shaped like a lampshade. “Cool, coolcoolcool.” He said. “I get the feeling that his knowledge isn’t like mine.” Mumbled Twilight. “Sorry Twilight.” Said Annie. Twilight sighed. “I don’t know where the others are.” Said Princess Celestia, “However the final seal won’t break for at least two more weeks, I will keep in touch, by the way do you 7 have any more questions.” “Yes, I have one, why are you a Princess and not a Queen?” asked Britta, “I mean I’m sure somewhere little girls want to be like you and you’re just a princess.” Princess Celestia stared at her, fighting off the strangest urge to call her the worst. “It’s not important.” Said Princess Celestia. Twilight was face hoofing… “We should go… we do have a deadline.” Said Annie. Princess Celestia gave Twilight the books about the Elements of Life, after that they all ran out of the chamber, and once they were out of the palace, Jeff finally said the obvious. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} “We are so screwed” said Jeff. “Jeffery.” Scolded Shirley, “Don’t say that… no matter how true it might be.” “Wait? What?” asked Rainbow Dash. “No he’s right, the best any of us ever did was win at Paintball, we’re probably the worst group of 7 to do this.” Said Abed, “Possibly somewhere below worst. We just came here because we had a time machine at the worst possible time.” “Oh come on you can’t be that bad.” Said Twilight. They all flinched. “About a month ago…” said Britta, “We started a riot at our old school.” “Oh come it can’t be that bad.” Said Rainbow Dash. “It wasn’t like it wasn’t a funeral at the same time.” Said Pinkie. There was an awkward silence, all 7 avoided their gazes. “My word…” said Rarity. “Seriously?” asked Rainbow Dash. “Now who would start a riot at a funereal?” asked Applejack. “Does it matter?” asked Jeff. “No… not really…” mumbled Twilight. “Wait… if it was your school, then why are you different ages?” asked Pinkie. “Do community colleges exist here in Equestria?” asked Jeff. “Oh…” said Twilight realizing, “Yes, they do…” “That doesn’t matter, it was all in the past.” Said Rainbow Dash. “Come on… we should head back to Ponyville.” Said Twilight. “Why?” asked Jeff. “Well the library is probably the best to read the books.” Said Twilight. They shrugged and headed back to the train station. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They didn’t know that Princess Luna heard everything… “Should I tell Tia?” asked Princess Luna silently to herself. “Don’t worry, I heard everything.” Said Princess Celestia joining her, “A group that caused a riot at a funeral. That’s something you don’t hear everyday.” “So should we?” asked Princess Luna. “No, they are good people.” Said Princess Celestia, “They might not be perfect, but they are who we have.” “But they are below the bottom of the barrel.” Said Princess Luna. “Don’t worry, they have my faith…” said Princess Celestia. Princess Luna sighed. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} With the two groups of friends they managed catch the last train of the day (which unfortunately meant they have to sleep on the train back to Ponyville). Thankfully since they didn’t have to hide any secrets and because of that they were in the same car… “So what happened next?” asked Pinkie. “And so the Inspector and Reggie…” explained Abed telling Pinkie about an episode of Inspector Spacetime “Can you please go five minutes without talking about Inspector Spacetime? I’m trying to sleep.” Said Jeff. “You know there’s a car for that.” Said Abed. “All of the beds are taken.” muttered Jeff. “You know what I realized you all need a place to stay when we're back into town.” Said Pinkie. “I call Pinkie Pie’s house!” yelled Troy. “Abed you can stay too since there are 7 of you.” Said Pinkie. “Cool, coolcoolcool.” Said Abed. “I think I should stay with Twilight.” Said Annie, “I can help her find the location of the other elements.” “Thanks.” Said Twilight. “Oh Jeff, if you want…” said Rarity with a seductive smile. “No way, I’m not letting you two under the same roof.” Said Shirley, “I’m staying at your place Rarity.” Rarity started pouting. “I guess Jeff can stay at my place.” Whispered Fluttershy. “Thanks.” Said Jeff. “If you want to Britta you can stay with me.” Said Rainbow Dash. “Why thank you Rainbow Dash.” Said Britta. “I guess you two are falling for each other.” Said Peirce who still thought Rainbow Dash was a lesbian. Rainbow Dash tried to punch him bit was stopped by Twilight using her magic. “Now’s not the time.” Muttered Twilight. “I’ll house him.” Muttered Applejack just everyone else didn’t like him that much. While they were going to the journey it was going to be a long road… a long awkward road… And hopefully they were wrong… maybe Equestria wasn’t screwed… Maybe…
Cloudsdale CrisisChapter 3: Cloudsdale Crisis The second that they arrived back in Ponyville Annie and Twilight headed to the Library. After explaining to Spike what was going on they went to find the next Element of Life. “Why did they have to put it in riddle?” asked Twilight. “I don’t know.” Said Annie, “They were probably from a different universe than us. One where riddles are spoken all the time…” “Compassion lies ever floating, never touching the ground, a place where clouds are born.” Read Twilight, “Of course, this one it's so obvious.” “What do you mean?” asked Annie. “Cloudsdale. It’s a city that entirely made of clouds.” Explained Twilight, “Plus most of the clouds in Equestria are born there.” “Are you guys almost done?” asked Spike, “You forget to put back the books that you didn’t need.” Indeed they were surrounded by books, massive stacks of books. “Why did there have to be two of them.” Muttered Spike picking up the books, “And why did they have to be the same…” “Well we should tell everyone.” Said Twilight, “Let’s go to Pinkie’s first… I think she might be a bad influence on your friend.” “I doubt it, I think she might be a bad influence on Tory and Abed.” Said Annie. There was an awkward silence… “Wait, Pinkie’s with somepony who might be a bad influence and she might be a bad influence on them?” asked Spike, “This I gotta see.” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They got to Sugar Cube Corner to find… they were… well both right. Abed was dressed like the Inspector, Troy was dressed like Reggie and Pinkie was dressed like Geneva. Not only that but Troy was what looked like to be five cupcakes in his mouth and Pinkie was trying to give him the Heimlich. “I think we should have cupcake breaks along with bathroom breaks while here.” Said Abed. Pinkie was able to get the cupcakes out of Troy’s mouth. “How were you able to do it?” Said Troy. “Don’t know.” Answered Pinkie with a shrug. Twilight cleared her throat causing the three to stare at them. “How long were you there?” asked Troy. “Less than a minute after I came out of the bathroom.” Answered Abed. Spike couldn’t help but to burst out laughing. “Just ignore him.” Sighed Twilight. “Did you find the next element?” asked Abed. “It’s in Cloudsdale.” Said Twilight. “Cloudsdale? What’s that?” asked Troy in the least convincing way possible. “You know about Cloudsdale?” asked Twilight staring at him, wondering why he was using a tone voice like he was lying. “No of course not…” lied Troy. “It’s a city in the clouds.” Said Pinkie, “It’s really awesome!” “I have to go get the hot air balloon.” Said Twilight, “Can all of you get the others?” “I don’t know, we just got back a couple hours ago…” said Troy. “We don’t have time to rest.” Said Twilight. Pinkie took out maps from somewhere and gave them to Annie, Troy and Abed. “I’m going to get Rarity and Shirley.” Said Pinkie, “I’m sure that Rarity is giving her an unwanted make over.” “Oh I want to see that.” Said Troy. “You’re the only who can get to Rainbow Dash’s house.” Pointed out Twilight. “Oh… yeah…” mumbled Troy. And so they all headed to tell the others that they found out where the next Element was. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Pinkie headed towards Carousel Boutique with Spike. “So… what were you doing?” asked Spike. “Playing Inspector Spacetime.” answered Pinkie. “I see…” said Spike not sure what Inspector Spacetime, and a part of him wasn’t sure if wanted to know. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They got to the boutique with Shirley backed into a corner. “I told you I don’t need a makeover.” Said Shirley. “Oh come now, you can’t like the way your mane is…” said Rarity. “I’m fine the way my hair is…” said Shirley. “But it’s so messy and unkempt.” Said Rarity. “This is just the way it is.” Said Shirley. “Hi!” called out Pinkie, “They already found the next element!” “Oh thank the lord!” said Shirley running towards Pinkie. “I’ll get you next time…” mumbled Rarity, she looked at Spike, “Spike be a dear and watch the shop for me.” “Okay Rarity.” Spike replied in full on love mode. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile at Fluttershy’s cottage, Fluttershy was feeding her animals, while Jeff laid on her couch staring at the ceiling. That was when he saw Angel hop towards him. “What do you want?” he asked. Angel pointed to Jeff, then pointed outside and started to pretend cry, then made a motion as if he strangling someone then once again pointed at Jeff. “What?” asked Jeff. “I think he said that if you make Fluttershy cry he’ll kill you.” Said Abed suddenly showing up. Jeff jumped, “Where did you come from?” he asked. “I teleported in.” said Abed, “I figured out how to do it last night. It’s actually quite easy, you just picture where you want to be and you’re there.” “I see…” Jeff slowly, he was freak out by it. Angel stared at the strange unicorn then nodded. “Why would he think I’d make her cry?” asked Jeff. “Well when compared to ponies, you’re a complete and utter bastard… no offense.” Said Jeff. “I can’t be that bad.” Said Jeff, “I mean I’m sure there’s scam artist ponies like that one from the Simpsons.” Abed stared at Jeff, “It’s strange that you would make such a reference.” “What’s that supposed to mean?” asked Jeff. That was when Fluttershy came into the room before Abed could say anymore. “Oh Abed…” whispered Fluttershy, “When did you get here?” “Less than a minute ago.” Said Abed, “Annie and Twilight found the next element already and wanted me to tell you.” “Okay.” Whispered Fluttershy. As they left, Jeff looked at Angel one more time, who did the “I’m watching you” motion. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} At Rainbow Dash’s house, she was in a conversation with Britta, about Peirce. “But his dad was even worse.” Said Britta. “How so?” asked Rainbow Dash. Before Britta could say anything there was a knock on the door, Rainbow Dash opened it and saw it was Derpy. “Morning Rainbow Dash!” said Derpy handing her the mail. “Morning Derpy.” replied Rainbow Dash. Britta looked at Derpy, “So that’s Derpy.” She mumbled. She flew over to the door and was about to reassure Derpy about her disabilities, when she heard a squee, as it turns out Troy had just arrived and was trying to stop himself from squeeing at the cross eyed Pegasus. “Oh this is Britta and Troy, they’re in town for a while.” Said Rainbow Dash. “Hey there!” greeted Derpy. “Don’t worry…” said Britta, “I won’t look down just because you’re disabled.” Rainbow Dash face hoofed when she said that. “What’s that supposed it mean?” asked Derpy who was clearly offended at the poorly constructed olive branch. “Nothing…” responding Britta realizing that she made a mistake. “What just because I’m cross eyed means I’m disabled?” asked Derpy who was getting angry. “No… I didn’t mean it that way.” responded Britta. “You’re the worst, I demand apology muffins and you better have them next time I see you.” Muttered Derpy glaring at her harshly. Derpy flew off to continue her route leaving everyone in stunned silence. “What just happened?” asked Troy. “I don’t know…” sighed Rainbow Dash, “I didn’t know it was even possible to get her angry!” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} At Sweet Apple Acres, Annie managed to find Applejack. “Hey there Annie.” Said Applejack, “Did you and Twi find the next element?” “We did.” Said Annie. “All right, let’s go get Peirce.” Said Applejack. As they headed to the house, Annie asked an important question. “Did you tell your family about what’s going on?” “I did…” said Applejack, “And considering the other stuff we’ve fought Granny Smith had Big Macintosh aren’t surprised.” “I see.” Said Annie. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They got to the house where they saw Granny Smith was looking at Peirce as he ate a pie. “This has to be the best pie I have ever eaten.” Said Peirce. “Awww shucks Mr. Hawthorn…” said Granny. “Call me Peirce…” said Peirce, “Mr. Hawthorn was my father.” The two watched as Granny Smith made the moves on Peirce. Applejack tried her best not to vomit. “Ewww…” muttered Annie. Annie went over to Peirce and used her new magic skill to tug on his ear. “Sorry, but we have to go.” Said Annie. “Not so hard…” muttered Peirce. “I’m just going to pretend I didn’t see that.” Mumbled Applejack then she followed them. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They all managed to meet up at the place where the hot air balloon is kept. “As you may or not know the next element is in Cloudsdale.” Said Twilight, “I’m going to apply the clouds walking spell in the air.” “Can we all fit in there?” asked Jeff looking at the rather small hot air balloon. “I’m sure it can fit 9 ponies.” Said Twilight. “And Gilligan cut.” Said Abed. Everyone stared at Abed. “What?” asked Applejack. “Just ignore that.” Said Jeff. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} The non-Pegasi were crowded and cramped in the basket of the balloon. “Okay… who’s butt in my face.” Said Annie. “Oh no… who’s stepping on my tail?” asked Rarity. “Next time get a bigger hot air balloon.” Muttered Jeff. The Pegasi stared at the balloon, all of them relieved they didn’t have to be in there. “I’m so happy I’m a Pegasus right now.” Said Troy. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Thankfully they got to Cloudsdale without crashing. “Okay…” said Twilight, “I’m going to apply the cloud walking spell now… I know I should have done it earlier sorry…” “Look! I don’t believe this cloud walking spell is needed, they can stand on the clouds so can I!” Said Peirce pointing to the four Pegasi in the group. Peirce jumped out of the basket, on to a cloud and of course immediately fell through it, everyone couldn’t help but to stare at what just happened. “I’d say let him fall, but we still need him to save the universe.” Said Jeff. “I’ll go save him.” Muttered Rainbow Dash, thankfully she didn’t have to resort to the Sonic Rainboom. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} After that little ordeal, thankfully Twilight managed to properly apply the Cloud Walking spell. “Why couldn’t you just place it on me before I did that!” said Peirce. “You’re the one who thought you could stand on the clouds.” Muttered Twilight. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile in Canterlot, in the Palace specifically the seal, a black blob came out of it. The blog took the form of a crow then flew out of a window, after all it couldn’t let anyone know of its existence, at least not yet… {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back up in the clouds in the city of Cloudsdale… “So where do you think it might be?” asked Annie. “I think I remember seeing a statue like the one back in the palace near the weather factory.” Saud Rainbow Dash, “But it’s been years…” “The weather factory?” asked Shirley. “Why do you sound surprised?” asked Rainbow Dash. “We don’t control the weather in our universe.” Said Annie, “It happens naturally.” “Seriously?” asked Rainbow Dash, “And I guess plants grow on their own.” There was an awkward silence. “Wow… your universe is weird.” Said Pinkie. “Our universe is the normal one, this one is the weird one.” Said Jeff. Before a rather childish argument could happen there were several screams, Rainbow Dash flew over to see what was going on and found a perfect round hole in the cloud. Around the hole several Pegasi were freaking out. “What happened?” asked Rainbow Dash. “A weird black bird suddenly landed and caused that hole.” Cried a Pegasus filly. That was when the crow tried to fly into Rainbow Dash, but Rainbow Dash dodged. The crow landed creating another hole in the clouds. “Great…” muttered Rainbow Dash. The bird once again flew towards Rainbow Dash at the same time the others arrived. “What’s going on?” asked Twilight. “That thing is caused by whatever it’s called.” Said Rainbow Dash. “Singularity.” corrected Twilight. “Whatever.” Muttered Rainbow Dash trying to fly away from it. Applejack decided to try to lasso it, however when she used it the rope dissolved. “Crud…” muttered Applejack. However this only caused the crow to turn its attention onto Applejack, who ran as fast she could. “Hey!” yelled Rainbow Dash to the Pegasi of Cloudsdale, “Do any of you know where a weird stone ball on a pillar?” “I have, I pass it on the way to work.” Said a grey mare with a purple and blue mane and tail, “I’ll show the way…” “Wait…” said Abed, “I have a theory, Twilight can you make a rope made of entirely magic?” “Why?” asked Twilight. “Because I have an idea.” Said Abed. “Go on ahead.” Said Twilight figuring it out. The grey mare named Peppermint Crunch lead the way to the element. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} “So… do you have a relative named Mintberry Crunch?” asked Troy. “No…” said Peppermint, “Why?” “No reason.” Said Troy. None of the others from Earth currently watched South Park so none of them got the joke. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back with Applejack she continued to run hoping that she wouldn’t run out of cloud with the bird tailing her. That was when suddenly the crow was tied up with a purple rope. Applejack turned around breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the rope coming from Twilight’s horn. Applejack saw Abed next to her. “I came up with a theory, it seems that it dissolves matter.” Said Abed, “I thought Magic might work as magic must be energy. Turns out I was right.” “Well he is the element of knowledge.” Sighed Twilight. The bird struggled in the rope, but it wasn’t able to escape. “We just need to figure out how to get rid of it.” Said Abed, “Now if only we had some kind ghost trap…” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile near the weather factor Peppermint Crunch showed them to the statue which was indeed the next element. “So who goes first?” asked Annie. “Peirce.” Said Jeff. “Oh come on.” Said Peirce. “We need to see which one fits you best.” Said Jeff. “Fine.” Muttered Peirce knowing he was just the test subject. He grabbed the orb, but it electrocuted him. “I’m sure being a psych major, I’ll be the one to get it.” Said Britta. “Former psych major.” Corrected Jeff. Britta touched the orb and she too got an electric shock. “Okay who’s next?” asked Jeff. “I’ll try it.” Said Troy. He grabbed the orb next and there was a bright flash of light and encompassed all of Cloudsdale. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Where Twilight, Abed and Applejack were the crow dissolved with an unearthly scream. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back at where the element was kept, the light died down revealing that it was now a gold necklace with a bright green crystal the shape of wrench. “All right!” cheered Troy. “So what’s going on exactly?” asked Peppermint. “We’ll tell you later.” Said Pinkie. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} The group groups once again met up, and when Abed saw that Troy found his element they did their secret hand shake. “So I guess maybe we should head back and find the next element.” Said Twilight. “Do it tomorrow.” Said Jeff. “Yeah…” agreed Rainbow Dash, “I haven’t been able to get any sleep in the last day.” “But…” said Twilight. “Look the Princess said we have like two weeks.” Said Jeff, “I’m sure we have plenty of time…” “Fine” muttered Twilight, “If anything happens, I’m blaming you…” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} In the seal, Singularity became angry, they had found the weakness of its golems… Magic… hopefully it’s next golem will be able to do its job and kill them… after all one touch can kill a normal pony... it would bring Equestria into nothingness and those Element Bearers couldn’t stop them if they tried.
Below GroundChapter 4: Below Ground Princess Celestia read the letter that Twilight had sent her, she had worried about this before. “What is wrong?” asked Princess Luna. “Singularity’s Golems.” Said Princess Celestia. “It can send them even in its seal?” asked Princess Luna. “I seems that way.” Sighed Princess Celestia. Princess Celestia sighed, she had hoped that they wouldn’t have to worry about the golems yet. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile in Ponyville, it was just a normal day, ponies from all over town did their errands and business, Shirley and Jeff were sitting outside of a café just drinking coffee. “I don’t know why that girl wants to give me a make over but she just won’t stop.” Said Shirley. “I know what you mean, I had to get away from the house.” Said Jeff, “That rabbit won’t stop giving me death threats.” “Stop making fun of me.” Muttered Shirley. “I’m not… all those guys were right, that rabbit is evil.” Muttered Jeff. “What?” asked Shirley. That was when Rarity showed up with Spike following her while pink hearts came from him. “Oh Shirley.” Said Rarity, then she noticed Jeff, “Oh Jeffery, I didn’t notice you.” “Oh come on your just saying that.” Said Jeff. Before Rarity could respond Spike said, “Shouldn’t we be getting back to the boutique.” “Oh yes.” Said Rarity, “I’ll see you later Jeffery.” However Spike stayed. “Do anything to Rarity, and you’ll regret it.” Muttered Spike glaring at Jeff. “Spike!” called out Rarity. Spike ran after Rarity, leaving both Shirley and Jeff confused. “Now that I’ve been threaten by a baby dragon, do you believe I was threatened by a bunny?” asked Jeff. “Maybe.” Mumbled Shirley. That was when Britta walked over to the table carrying a muffin basket. “What’s with the muffin basket?” asked Jeff. “I angered the mail mare.” Said Britta, “And she demanded this as an apology.” “It isn’t Derpy is it?” asked Jeff. “How did you know?” asked Britta. “Considering your little gripe when we first got here, it’s no wonder why you offended her.” Muttered Jeff. As it turns out that was when Derpy saw her. “Are those the apology muffins?” asked Derpy glaring at Britta. “Yeah, I asked Mrs. Cake what kind of Muffins you liked and after hearing what happened she made this basket.” Said Britta, “So we cool?” Derpy grabbed the muffin basket, “For now…” “Hey at least you didn’t get threats against you.” Said Jeff. “What?” asked Britta. “Don’t ask.” Muttered Jeff. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Nearby, Pinkie was listening to Abed describe the Star Wars Trilogy, when Troy who was with them saw Derpy. “Um… there’s something I need to do.” Said Troy flying over to Derpy. “What was that about?” asked Pinkie. “Don’t mind him.” Said Abed. “Does it have something to with the fact you watch us.” Said Pinkie. Abed looked at her. “You knew.” Said Abed. “You can sense them too. Can’t you?” asked Pinkie. “I try not to address it that much.” Said Abed, “I noticed when I was a kid.” “I know right.” Said Pinkie, “My sisters never wanted to be around me until after I got my cutie mark.” There was a silence. “It’s too bad we’re from a different universe.” Said Pinkie. “I know.” Said Abed. “So… in your universe is Derpy popular?” asked Pinkie. “You have no idea.” Said Abed. “By the way… please don’t tell my friends about this.” Said Pinkie. “Don’t worry, I don’t like it when the characters learn they’re in a TV show, it’s too cheap a gimmick, nothing I’ve ever seen ever captured the perfect excusal crisis.” Said Abed, “Besides, with the exception of Peirce I doubt anyone would say anything.” That was when Troy arrived. “That was so some awesome! I found out her cutie mark means popping bubble wrap.” Said Troy. “Nice!” said Abed. Pinkie just giggled. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile at the Apple Family Stand, Peirce was working the stand with Applejack. “Why can’t I just lay low at your place?” asked Peirce. “Because I don’t trust you being around Granny Smith.” muttered Applejack. “Oh come, I would never get into the sack with her…” said Peirce. Unfortunately Rarity and Spike were there to say hi. “I’m going to pretend I didn’t hear that.” Said Rarity. That was when Spike looked like he was going to vomit. “Can’t blame him this time.” Said Applejack with a shudder. However he cough up a scroll. “Did that lizard just barf up a scroll?” asked Peirce. “I’m a baby dragon…” muttered Spike. Spike skimmed though the scroll. “I’m sorry Rarity but I have to go take this to Twilight.” Said Spike who ran off. There was an awkward silence, after all it was a touchy subject… “I have to go.” Said Rarity running away as fast as she could. “If you mention that again, I’m going to buck you.” Said Applejack. “Wait... why do you want to do it, if you won’t let me and your grandma do it.” Said Peirce. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} At the Library, Spike came into to find a massive pile of books next to the two studiers. “Hope exists where hope is needed, the place where the thief steals from the rich and gives to the needy.” Read Twilight “That’s obviously Trottingham, the legendary, Robbing Hood” “Twilight!” yelled Spike. “What is it?” asked Annie. “This letter came for from Princess Celestia.” Said Spike. He gave her the letter, Twilight read and immediately got worried. “What does it say.” Said Annie. “My dearest student Twilight Sparkle, I unfortunately have terrible news to give you. Singularity has the ability to create creatures named Golems, these Golems have the ability to completely and utterly destroy everything they touch, even living things. With the weakened seal, Singularity is able to send them to prevent you from finding the Elements of Life. However magic is their weakness. Please be careful, Signed Princess Celestia.” Read Twilight. There was silence. “Spike go find everypony and tell them to meet at the train station” said Twilight. “Fine…” sighed Spike who decided to get Applejack and Peirce last after what he heard. Sometime later at the train station, everyone managed to meet up. “We’re here.” Said Applejack as she and Peirce was the last ones to arrive. They all flinched at Peirce’s face which was covered in bruises, slightly swollen with two black eyes. “Oh, Peirce what happened?” asked Annie. “I learned that if Applejack says if she’s going to buck you, it’s not a euphemism.” Said Peirce. “Eww…” muttered Annie. “What is wrong with you?” asked Rainbow Dash. “Let just ignore Peirce and just go whatever city the next element is.” Muttered Jeff. “There’s something else I have to tell you.” Said Twilight. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} However as the train started to board she decided to wait until they were on the train… “So wait, you mean that weird bird thing can kill us if it touches us.” Said Troy. “I’m sure it can make other animals too.” Said Twilight. “We already knew all this.” Said Jeff. “Expect for the death part.” Corrected Abed. “Yes, except for the death part.” Said Jeff, “All we now know is that why and they confirmed our theories.” They all shrugged realizing he was right. “Does he do that a lot?” asked Rainbow Dash to Britta. “All the time.” Answered Britta. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} In Canterlot at the seal, another bird shaped golem popped out, knowing where the next element was. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} A couple hours later they got to Trottingham, which was a quaint little village, that was very similar to Ponyville. “So this is Trottingham.” Said Troy, “It’s just like I managed it. Twilight decided to ask the nearest pony, “Excuse me have you ever seen a statue of a sphere on a pillar.” “No I ‘ave never seen a statue like that, sorry I couldn’t ‘elp.” Responded the pony. “Was that a Cockney pony?” asked Britta. “Now’s not the time.” Said Jeff. “Sine I’m not needed here, I’m going to look for those Golems.” Said Abed. “Are you sure you can handle it.” Said Twilight. “Don’t worry, I’ve figure out my magic, I also figure out how to use it like a proton pack from Ghostbusters, but instead of putting in the trap I’m just going to hold on it until it gets destroyed by the element of life.” Said Abed. “What?” asked Twilight. “I’ll tell you about it on the way back.” Said Abed. Abed walked off leaving 5 of the native ponies confused. “I think somepony should go look after him.” Said Twilight. “Since I already found my element I’ll go look after him.” Said Troy. “Me too.” Said Pinkie. Troy flew after Abed while Pinkie hopped away. They began to search, the town for the statue. “So Applejack, why did you buck Peirce again.” Said Rainbow Dash. “I already said I don’t want to talk about it.” Said Applejack. “I’ll explain it.” Said Peirce. “Please don’t.” said Britta. That was when they approached by an old mare. “Excuse me, I heard you were searching for a statue of a ball on a pillar.” Said the old mare, “It’s over by the blacksmith’s.” “Thank you.” Said Twilight. The old mare decided to tell her how to get to the blacksmith, however during this conversation the golem landed. After creating a crater it shape shifted into a gopher and dug underground. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} And on they headed to where the element was, they saw it. “Good we’re almost there.” Said Rainbow Dash. That was when the ground beneath them crumbled beneath them, only the three Pegasus were able to react. “Oh no… oh no…” whispered Fluttershy. “Hey you all right!” called out Rainbow Dash. “We’re fine.” Called out Annie. The ground was in large chunks, Shirley and Applejack were on one, Annie, Jeff and Twilight were on another and Rarity and Peirce were on a third that held the element of life. “Hey, this must be a sign that this is mine.” Said Peirce. Peirce touched and got an electric shock. “What could have caused this?” asked Twilight. That was when they felt something rumbling below them, and the golem jumped out of the ground still in its gopher form. “That explains a lot…” mumbled Jeff. “Rainbow Dash, Britta, do you think you can fly Shirley and Annie to it?” asked Jeff. “Wait… why?” asked Twilight. “You said it was Hope right, I doubt I’m the one who represents it the most.” Said Jeff. “I don ‘t know.” Said Britta, “I’m still not used to the whole I can fly thing.” “Didn’t worry I can do both!” said Rainbow Dash. Rainbow Dash flew towards Annie, picked her up and put on the right piece of rock. However the rock began to sink some more. Annie walked slowly towards the element as to not disturb the ground breaking apart around her. She was about to touch it, but the golem came out of the ground with a loud shriek aimed itself at Annie. However before it could even get near her, it was tied up by a yellow rope made of magic. It was Abed who was with Pinkie and Troy. “Come on hurry it up already.” Said Abed who was clearly playing a character, probably one of the Ghostbusters. Annie touched it and there was a bright flash of light destroying the golem. When the light died she was holding the element of life which took the form of her cutie mark it gem being sky blue. “Looks like everything is going to be fine.” Said Pinkie. That was when the ground under Peirce gave way sending him into a crevice. “Peirce?” asked Annie. “I’m okay…” said Peirce. “So who’s going to get him out?” asked Rainbow Dash. “Not me.” muttered Applejack. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile in Canterlot, within its seal Singularly groaned, it had sensed that another one of its Golems was defeated. Oh well… it knew something better would come along. Because it made another struggle against the seals and the second seal broke. It was just one step closer. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Upstairs, Princess Luna checked up on her sister. “I think they found the third Element of Life.” Said Princess Luna. “I think so too.” Princess Celestia smiled. “By the way, I was wondering did you mention that the Golems can shape shift?” asked Princess Luna. Princess Celestia blinked, she face hoofed. She couldn’t believe she had forgotten that one little detail. That was when throne of the guards in charge of the seal came up. “The second seal has broken.” Said the guards. Princess Celestia sighed, at least for the time being they were one step ahead of Singularity.
Return to Manehattan Return to Manehattan Chapter 6: Return to Manehattan In the seal, Singularity began to move to try to break the seal once again. Outside, the seal glowed brightly then turned black… the next seal has broken… {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} In the Ponyville Library on other hand… “You will not defeat the Legit Forts of Novel Scotia” said Troy as he sent out paper balls. “The Fantastic Castle of Book land will never lose!” yelled Pinkie as she fired back. Twilight walked up to them. “Those weren’t ripped from the books, were they?” asked Twilight. “No of course not.” Said Pinkie. That is when Spike ran out of Pinkie’s fort and burped out a scroll, he knew Twilight would kill him if he burnt them… “I know I say this all the time but why does he still live in the library?” asked Troy. Abed shrugged. Twilight paled, “The next seal has broken.” “I found the next location.” Said Annie. “Love resides on an island, but it’s not the long island but the small one.” Said Twilight. Annie nodded. “Manehattan.” Said Annie. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} And so they all once again gathered on the train. “They named a place Manehattan?” asked Peirce, “Are these horse puns getting worse, please tell I’m not the only one who thinks so.” Of course they all ignored him. “This is going to be a problem.” Said Twilight looking at maps, “It might take days to find it, it’s one of the most populated cities in Equestria…” “I do have relatives but I don’t know if I should ask them.” Said Applejack, “I haven’t seen them in years and we haven’t gotten along since I was a filly, it’s a long story.” “We’ll do that if we can’t find it within a day.” Said Twilight. “Do we really have to hurry though, I mean the seal’s not that weak yet.” Said Pinkie. “We can’t take that chance.” Said Twilight, “The faster we get it, the safer everypony will be.” “Don’t worry I lived in New York… which has our version of Manehattan I’ll be able to find it.” Said Britta. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Sometime later when they got into Manehattan… “Get out my face rube!” yelled a pony Britta tried to ask about the orb. “I’m not the rube! You’re the rube.” Said Britta. “You’re the worst.” Muttered the pony who walked away. The others watched. “I’m guessing I’m not the only who knew that was going to happen.” Muttered Jeff. “Let’s go find somepony who’s nicer.” Said Pinkie. Twilight used her magic to drag Britta away knowing it was probably better for her to not escalate the fight. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They found a food salesman who didn’t seemed like a jerk so they asked him. “Excuse me do you know where a certain statue is?” asked Twilight. “Que?” asked the pony. “Seriously!” yelled Jeff. “Que?” responded the pony. “Does anyone remember any Spanish?” asked Annie. The other 6 from their group stared at her, she should have known the answer to that… That was when a pair of ponies with oranges as cutie marks walked past them, they stopped. “Applejack… is that you?” asked the mare. Applejack froze when she said that. “Oh hello Aunt Orange… Uncle Orange.” Said Applejack. “What are you doing here in Manehattan?” asked her Uncle Orange. “We’re doing something for Princess Celestia.” Said Applejack. “Oh that’s right, you and your friends saved Equestria a few times.” Said Aunt Orange. “Yeah…” said Applejack. “Are these your friends?” Said Uncle Orange. “Yes.” Said Applejack. “Excuse me… do you know where a statue of a sphere on a pillar is?” asked Twilight. “No…” said Uncle Orange. “I have never seen such a thing.” Said Aunt Orange. “Well see ya.” Said Applejack. “Can you at least come over for lunch.” Said Aunt Orange. “I can’t, I have something, it’s just that we’re trying to find that statue.” Said Applejack. “Don’t worry it won’t take too long.” Said Aunt Orange. Jeff sighed, “Look we have to find that statue before something happens that will end up destroying the city.” Said Jeff, “We really need to do this.” “Oh come now.” Said Rarity, “I think one little lunch won’t hurt anything.” “Now’s not the time.” Said Applejack. “I am hungry.” Said Pinkie. “So am I.” said Peirce. “You don’t want to eat lunch with them” whispered Applejack. “What’s that supposed to mean?” asked Peirce. “The portions are really small.” Mumbled Applejack. “How small are we talking about?” asked Pinkie. “A leaf and a piece of carrot.” Said Applejack. “If you want something more filling then perhaps we can go to a restaurant.” Said Uncle Orange. Applejack sighed, she knew that her aunt and uncle wouldn’t stop unless they went out for lunch. “Fine…” muttered Applejack, “But it has to be short.” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile in Canterlot, Singularity began to struggle against the seal since it felt the next one was weakened as well. On the outside the next seal burnt out. Singularity decided to send out a Golem unlike the others… something a little more larger… A large back mass began to escape the castle without destroying anything, after all it would be very bad if the Princesses were to find out about this one. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile at a fancy restaurant in downtown Manehattan, at large table the rather large group sat. “So you are the student of Princess Celestia.” Said Uncle Orange to Twilight. “Why yes I am.” Said Twilight feeling a little uncomfortable, she had usually gotten that feeling before, when somepony wanted to get it in with Princess Celestia. On the other hand Rarity was having a wonderful; conversation with Aunt Orange. Applejack sighed. “So what’s wrong?” asked Annie who was next to her. “It’s complicated.” Sighed Applejack, “Knowing my uncle he probably wants to get to know the heroes of Equestria.” “Well its not that bad is it?” asked Annie. “You see when I was filly I decided to move in with them. And when I left I could tell they resented me.” Said Applejack. “I see.” Said Annie. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} On the other side of the table there was another conversation. “By the way, what happened to that pony from Baltimare?” asked Shirley. “She got a new cart and ran out of town.” Said Abed. “Because the villagers were apparently after her.” Said Pinkie. “Seriously?” asked Jeff. “I know right, I feeling like we’re breaking show don’t tell…” said Abed. That was when there were loud thumps, as if it was something gigantic was walking. That was when they heard screams of “Dragon Attack! Dragon Attack!” The patrons of the restaurant began to whisper amongst themselves. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They all left the restaurant and saw the dragon, which was pure black. “That’s no ordinary dragon.” Said Troy and Abed at the same time. They all stared at the two then looked back at the dragon. “We need to do something.” Said Annie. “I don’t know…” said Twilight. “Maybe try to find as many unicorns as we can to hold it off while the rest of us find the element.” Said Annie coming up with an idea. “Good thinking Annie.” Said Twilight. “Though if the plan involves a lot of fish then I’m out.” Said Abed. “What?” asked Twilight who shook her head as Troy laughed. Jeff turned to the Oranges. “Are you positive you never seen a statue like the one we mentioned before?” asked Jeff, “Because if we find it we’ll be able to stop that thing.” “Wait… that statue, I’ve seen it before.” Said Aunt Orange. “What?” asked Applejack. “Yes, I’ve seen it many times in fact.” Said Aunt Orange. “Why didn’t you say anything before?” asked Applejack. “I didn’t think it was that important.” Said Aunt Orange, “In fact I was planning to bring it up during lunch.” Applejack glared at her aunt, that was when the floodgates opened. “So you knew the whole time, lied to us because you wanted to have lunch with us?” asked Applejack. “Not exactly… I wanted to ask why you needed to find it.” Said Aunt Orange. Before Applejack could say any more Twilight spoke up. “That’s no important right now, we have to make sure it doesn’t destroy the city.” Said Twilight, “Take them to the statue now…” “Okay…” whispered Aunt Orange. “What can the rest of us do?” asked Uncle Orange. “Find as many unicorns that we can tell them to send magic at it.” Said Twilight, “It’s weak against magic.” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile in Ponyville Spike was cleaning up some of the mess from the book forts, when she suddenly burped up again letter. “I hope it isn’t bad news.” He thought to himself. He read it and froze, another seal broke, and the Princesses were planning measures to make sure another one doesn’t break until all of the elements of Life were gathered. “This isn’t good…” said Spike. He had no way to get into contact with Twilight either, he really hope they would be home soon. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back in Manehattan, Twilight, Rarity, Annie and Abed as well as about 20 unicorns that were gathered all stood a safe distance from the dragon like golem. That was when they fired beam of pure magic at it. The dragon like Golem screamed in pain, not only that but more unicorns joined in as well. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile another group consisting of the three that hasn’t found the elements yet, Applejack, her aunt and Fluttershy (who joined to make sure that Applejack wouldn’t get into a fight with her aunt) all went searching for the element. “Are you sure it’s it.” Said Applejack. “Will you please stop asking me.” Said Aunt Orange. “Now’s not the time.” Said Fluttershy. Aunt Orange sighed… “This way.” She said. Back at the dragon like golem word had spread that’s its weakness was magic it helped that Rainbow Dash, Troy, Pinkie and Britta spread the word, so many more unicorns had joined in. However the ones that started were starting to become exhausted, Rarity had to stop after a few minutes, as did a few others, after a while, Annie did too. “You all right?” asked Rarity. “I’m fine…” sighed Annie. IT was a good thing that more beams were starting to cover the dragon like golem. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile with the group searching they found what looked to be the statue. “Is that really it?” asked Fluttershy. “Only one way to find out.” Said Jeff, “Peirce.” “What?” asked Peirce. “Come on touch it.” Said Jeff. “Why? We both know Love is probably going to be Shirley’s.” said Peirce. “It might be yours” said Jeff, “I mean you did get married 7 times.” “Maybe you're right.” Said Peirce buying it. He touched and got shocked. “Jeffery.” scolded Shirley. “You just wanted to see him get electrocuted.” muttered Fluttershy. Jeff shrugged, while Shirley touched it, there was a very bright light that shone though out the city, destroying the dragon like golem. Cheers erupted when the dragon disappeared. Shirley now held golden necklace with a reddish-pink gem that was shaped like a brownie in the middle. “What just happened?” asked Aunt Orange. “It’s an element of life.” Said Applejack, “The reason why we came.” “I see…” said her aunt. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile where the golem stood the unicorns that could celebrate did so… However many of them were exhausted. “You okay?” asked Rainbow Dash flying towards them. “Just need to rest for a few hours.” Said Twilight. “I don’t think I’m going to do that again.” Sighed Annie. “I’m just glad it didn’t hide behind buildings.” Said Abed. They all stared at him. “The American Godzilla movies.” asked Troy flying down next to Abed, “He made another reference to it earlier with the fish. “Oh…” said Annie. Twilight and Rarity looked at each other. Applejack’s uncle Orange walked up to them, “I believe that it’s probably wise to rest up at our penthouse.” Twilight wanted to say no, however… “We’d love to.” Said Rarity. “I think we should wait until Applejack gets back to make the decision.” Said Twilight. “Why?” asked Rarity, “I’m exhausted and I get to be in a Manehattan Penthouse…” “Do you want to hurt Applejacks’ feelings?” asked Twilight. Rarity remained silent. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Rainbow Dash, Britta and Pinkie rejoined them less than a minute later, however it was 10 minutes later and Applejack was told of the offer. “I’d rather not.” Said Applejack. “Why not?” asked Uncle Orange. “You just want to get in good with Twilight Sparkle don’t you?” asked Applejack’s aunt. “What?” asked Uncle Orange. “I apologize for my behavior the last few years, I understand that the farm is where you belong.” Said her Aunt. “What?” asked Uncle Orange and Applejack. “I know that we treat you badly after you left, but I really wanted my sister’s daughter around…” she said who went quiet. “Oh man…” mumbled Troy. Troy and Abed sometime debated which one was related to Applejack, Abed always said her aunt, Troy said her uncle. “Just live your life the way you want.” Said her aunt, “And maybe my husband won’t use you for social standing. Maybe I will come for a visit soon.” Applejack nodded. “Well it looks like every thing is wrapped up.” Said Britta. “You barely did anything.” Said Jeff. “Didn’t I?” asked Britta. “No…” said Jeff. “Well I probably did more than you.” said Britta. “Who are throes ponies again?” asked Aunt Orange. “Don’t ask.” Said Applejack. “By the way, do you two even have names?” asked Pinkie. “What do you mean?” asked Uncle Orange. “I think we should go now.” Said Applejack. “That would probably be a good idea.” Mumbled Twilight knowing it was going to get weird. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} And so it was a quiet train ride as Twilight, Rarity and Annie were sleeping. “Why aren’t you exhausted?” asked Rainbow Dash. “I didn’t use that much.” Said Abed. Everyone shrugged and ignored it, it was probably best not to think about it. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Eventually they got back to Ponyville and they all went to their homes/ places they were staying at for the time. Twilight and Annie arrived back at the library. “You look exhausted.” Said Spike. “You have no idea.” Said Annie. “It might be a bad idea to spring this on you.” Said Spike. “What do you mean?” asked Twilight. Spike handed her the letter and Twilight froze. “No, no… this was sent today?” asked Twilight. Spike nodded. Twilight fell to the floor thanks to the combination of exhaustion and the bad news. “You okay?” asked Spike. “I’m fine…” responded Twilight. She hoped that the seal would hold out… after if it didn’t then it would mean doom for everyone who lived in the universe.
Fan Service: Good or Bad?Chapter 5: Fan Service: Good or Bad? Twilight and Annie were looking though a massive pile of books trying to figure out the next riddle. “By the ocean the orioles fly across the sky, that is where Peace is.” Read Twilight, “It’s Baltimare! OF course, orioles…” “We should tell everyone else.” Said Annie. That was when they noticed the book forts. Two of them, both of them made of up the books that weren’t placed back during the studying. “What’s this?” asked Twilight. That was when Troy and Abed popped their heads up from one of the book forts. “Hey Twilight.” Said Troy. “Sorry.” Said Spike popping up from the other one. “You let them do this.” Said Twilight. “You weren’t putting any of them back.” Said Spike. “So you let them build book forts?“ asked Twilight, who face hoofed, she looked at Annie who didn’t seem surprised by this fact, “So… do they do this a lot?” “Not that much.” Said Annie, “Though they do live in a blanket fort.” She mumbled. Twilight sighed, “You can keep it, but you have to reshelf them when you’re finally done.” “Fine…” said the four in the forts, and that included Pinkie who was in Spike’s fort. “Can you get everyone else, we found the next location.” Said Annie. After they left, Twilight turned to Annie. “Seriously?” she asked, “They live in a blanket fort?” “Yes.” Sighed Annie, “And I’m not getting into Fluffy Town.” “What?” asked Twilight. “Don’t ask.” Sighed Annie. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Sometime later they managed to get to the train station and boarded the train. “Great… Baltimare.” Muttered Rainbow Dash, “We have to go to that Tartarus Hole.” “Tartarus Hole?” asked Peirce. “Tartarus is the ancient Greek equivalent of hell.” Said Abed, “So it means hellhole.” “So what’s wrong with the city.” Said Shirley. “Well you see the economy of Baltimare collapsed and…” said Twilight, however she was cut off by the former study group going “Oh…” “Yeah, a bad economy does turn places into Hellholes.” Said Peirce, “Just look at Detroit.” “What?” asked Twilight. “Never mind.” Said Jeff. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They arrived at the city to empty buildings everywhere as well as graffiti. “Let’s just find that Element quickly.” Said Jeff. That was when a unicorn colt showed up with his horn glowing. “Give me all of your cash now!” he yelled. Applejack ended up bucking him 20 feet away. “I just remembered I have to do something while here.” Said Abed. “What?” asked Twilight. “Just something.” Said Abed who just walked off. However both Troy and Annie got a strange feeling. “You don’t think?” asked Troy. “No… he doesn’t have his costume.” Said Annie. “What?” asked Pinkie. “We need to find it quickly.” Said Rarity, “I want to leave here as soon as possible.” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They went on their search, a few minutes into it, they heard music. “What’s that?” asked Twilight. “I’m guessing it’s just ghetto music for you ponies.” Said Peirce, “You know like rap music.” They all glared at Peirce. “You know there’s something familiar about that music.” Said Twilight. “Oh let’s go see it! It sounds fun.” Said Pinkie. Pinkie ran off ahead to where the music came from. “I don’t know why but I have a bad feeling about this.” Said Jeff. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} They got to what appeared to be the city’s square where they saw a cart that was the source of the music. “It can’t be.” Muttered Rarity. “What’s she’s doing here.” Muttered Rainbow Dash. That was when the cart opened up revealing a stage, followed by a stream of fireworks. “It’s her.” Muttered Applejack. “Let’s just get out of here before she notices us…” said Rainbow Dash. “Why? What’s going on?” asked Britta. That was when a blue pony appeared on stage. “Greetings everypony! I am the great and powerful Trixie!” yelled the pony. It was met by a cough as she noticed the rather bored looking crowd. The pony named Trixie muttered something under breath. That was when she saw a certain somepony in the crowd. “Well, well, well if isn’t Twilight Sparkle.” Said Trixie. “Oh no…” muttered Twilight. “If we had a distraction.” Said Pinkie. “Is that Bat Man!” yelled Troy pointing to a building. “No one knows who that is.” Muttered Jeff. “No… he’s right.” Said Britta. On top of a building was somepony dressed like Bat Man, they could tell he was a unicorn because of his horn… “You have got to be kidding me!” yelled Jeff. “Is that Abed?” asked Rainbow Dash. “It is.” Sighed Shirley. “What is he wearing.” Said Rarity. That was when “Bat Man” jumped off the roof. Well more like tumble off the roof. “I’m going to go check on him.” Said Fluttershy. Trixie on the other and saw the distraction as her chance to confront Twilight. “Twilight Sparkle!” yelled Trixie running over to Twilight blocking her path. “Oh hello Trixie!” said Twilight nervously. “You dare upstage Trixie back in Ponyville, well you have another thing coming.” Said Trixie. “I’m sorry Trixie, but I have a mission to do.” Said Twilight. “We don’t have to do it right now.” Said Troy. “Yes, we do.” Said Twilight. “Actually it’s right over there.” Said Troy. Troy pointed to the stone on the pillar, which was not only part of the town square but right in front of the building “Bat Man was on.” “Or we can get it right now, find Abed and bolt.” Said Jeff. “Well I want to see Twilight go up against Trixie.” Said Troy. “See this Pegasus wants to see us duel, give the crowd what it wants.” Said Trixie. Twilight sighed, “Fine...” she muttered, “I’ll go up against you Trixie.” “Troy, why did you do that?” asked Annie. “Do what?” asked Troy. Annie grabbed Troy. “Why did you goad Twilight into doing that?” asked Annie. “You know I’m a Trixie fan.” Answered Troy. Annie stared at him and sighed heavily. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Nearby Fluttershy checked on “Bat Man.” “Abed, are you okay?” asked Fluttershy. “Don’t worry.” Said Bat Man in an extremely gravely voice, “I’m fine, it was nothing for me.” “Are you okay?” asked Fluttershy. "I’m fine.” Said “Bat Man”, “I’m Bat Mane and the city needs me.” “Bat Mane” ran off, tripping over the cape before continuing. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Fluttershy flew over to the others “I think there’s something wrong with Abed.” Said Fluttershy. “Is he imitating George Clooney?” asked Troy. “I… maybe?” responded Fluttershy who didn’t know who George Clooney was. “Is Abed speaking in a gravelly voice?” asked Annie clearing things up. “Yes.” Answered Fluttershy. “Then he’s fine.” Said Troy. “Well fine for Abed.” Said Jeff. “Shouldn’t someone watch him?” asked Fluttershy. “Let’s just leave him be for now.” Sighed Jeff, “He’ll be fine, unless guns and knives exist.” {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile in Canterlot, at the seal, Singularity began to create another golem. It flew off to Baltimare, knowing that’s where the group was. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back in Baltimare… “And now we begin to see how’s magic is stronger!” said Trixie as the fire works began to shoot off, “Now does anypony have a competition.” “Mud wrestling!” yelled a random stallion in the crowd. “Yeah! Mud wrestling!” agreed Peirce. “I hear using magic to lift weights!” said Trixie. “No you didn’t!” yelled Pierce. In the crowd the ponies stared at Peirce. “What? I was just agreeing with the crowd.” Said Peirce. Twilight face hoofed while Trixie rolled her eyes and unveiled the weights. Trixie lifted half of them. “Beat that Twilight Sparkle.” Said Trixie. Twilight sighed and easily lifted them all. Trixie blinked then remember something. “Trixie had forgotten that you had lifted an Ursa Minor.” Mumbled Trixie, “However Trixie is not done yet.” Twilight sighed, this was going to be a long day. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Elsewhere, “Bat Mane” had found the colt from earlier trying to rob a mare. “Now give me all your cash!” said the Colt. That was when “Bat Mane”, jumped down from the building using a magical grappling hook… landing on the colt. “Are you okay?” asked the Mare. “I’m fine.” Said “Bat Mane”, “Are you alright?” “I’m okay.” Said the Mare confused. Bat Mane got up and ran off but not before saying “I’m Bat Mane.” “That’s it! I’m moving to Las Pegasus.” Muttered the colt. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back in the town square, Trixie continued the competition… “Are there any new suggestions from the crowd!” Called out Trixie. “Pole dancing!” yelled a random Stallion. “Yeah! Pole dancing!” yelled Pierce. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} In the crowd Shirley shook her head at Peirce. “What in tarnation is wrong with you?” asked Applejack. “What?” asked Peirce. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Back on stage, Trixie muttered something under her breath before announcing what the real challenge. “We will now tell of the biggest threat that we have ever faced using illusions.” Twilight sighed, she wasn’t that good with illusionary magic. Trice used her fire works to create a cloud to protect her illusion. “I the Great and Powerful Trixie once faced off agent an Ursa Minor, granted it had won.” Trixie smirked, she knew that Twilight while Twilight had defeated the Ursa Minor, living in such a Podunk town, that’s probably the worst she faced. “It’s your turn Twilight Sparkle.” Said Trixie. Twilight sighed and realized something… Trixie didn’t know anything about her. “I’m not going to do this.” Said Twilight. “What? Why? Are you giving up?” Said Trixie, “Trixie is right, the Ursa Minor is the worst things you have ever faced.” “No it’s not.” Said Twilight. “Oh really Twilight Sparkle? What have you faced that’s stronger than a Ursa Minor?” asked Trixie. “This is pointless, right now I’m trying to get the Elements of Life with my friends to stop those black monsters that have started to destroy Equestria.” Said Twilight. Trixie froze, she remembered hearing about the black monsters destroying part of Cloudsdale as well as Trottingham. “Why? Why have you been assigned to stopping them?” asked Trixie, “That would be assigned to the Elements of Harmony.” That was when it struck Trixie. “You’re one of the Bearers of the Elements of Harmony? Aren’t you?” asked Trixie. Before Twilight could say anymore. A golem swooped down from the sky, aiming for Twilight. Even though the ponies of Baltimare had been rather apathetic before, they were now screaming and running away. The bird like golem landed on the ground then shifted into a deer shape. “What is that thing!” yelled Trixie. “Don’t let it touch you, it will destroy you.” Said Twilight. Trixie paled. The deer like Golem ran towards the wagon, Twilight teleported away, but Trixie dodged it, only barely. While Trixie wasn’t touched by the deer like golem, unfortunately several of the safety mechanisms for her fireworks were destroyed, it created a large explosion. “Oh no.” whispered Trixie. That was when Bat Mane swooped down and grabbed Trixie before she could be engulfed by it. “Bat Mane” landed on the ground with the blue unicorn rather gracefully. “Thank you…” said Trixie who began to blush. “It was my job.” Said “Bat Mane”. Twilight had reappeared where friends were standing. “Do you think it’s dead?” asked Troy. That was when the smoke cleared and the deer was still standing there. The deer ran towards the group when both Twilight and Bat Mane created magical ropes to tie it. “Get it now!” yelled Twilight. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} The four who had yet to get their elements went to the pillar. “Okay who’s first?” asked Jeff. “Peirce.” Said Britta and Shirley. “What did I do?” asked Peirce. “You’re the one who tried to get them to mud wrestle and pole dance.” Said Jeff. “Fine.” Muttered Peirce. Peirce touched it and once again got zapped. “Britta your next.” Said Jeff. “Why me?” asked Britta. “Just go Britta.” Said Shirley. “Fine.” Mumbled Britta. She grabbed it and there was a bright light. It destroyed the deer like golem. When the light died down Britta held up a golden necklace with a peace sign shaped dark green gem. “Oh look! I represent peace.” Said Britta, “Britta for the win!” “You can gloat on the train ride back but not after that.” Said Jeff. “Oh come on.” Said Britta. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} Meanwhile Trixie regained her sight. “What is Trixie going to do?” asked Trixie. “It will be fine, if you were able to get a another wagon from the Ursa Minor Incident, then you’ll get another.” Said “Bat Mane.” “I will.” Said Trixie blushing. “Bat Mane” began to leave. “Wait, will Trixie ever see you again?” asked Trixie. “Who knows.” Said “Bat Mane”, “Perhaps you will see me in the night, where I will protect those that need protecting or perhaps you will never see me again. I’m Bat Mane.” “Bat Mane” ran off leaving Trixie saddened. “You okay?” asked Annie. “Trixie is fine.” Sighed Trixie. “Don’t worry, it’s normal to fall for Abed when he gets into one of his characters.” Said Annie “What do you mean?” asked Trixie. That was when Abed showed up. “Hey, did I miss anything?” he acted causally. “Where have you been, you missed the awesomest thing ever!” said Troy. Everyone looked at Troy. “Seriously?” asked Twilight. Trixie realized that “Bat Mane” was Abed and couldn’t believe she fell for him. “Wait… does that mean…” said Trixie. Annie smiled nervously and laughed. “Well it looks like we found the Element of Life, let’s go back to Ponyville.” Said Twilight. “Wait!” yelled Trixie, “You are going to tell Trixie who you really are!” Twilight looked at her friends, who all gave her looks, most of them said “Tell her.” “Fine…” muttered Twilight. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} And Twilight told Trixie that she was Princess Celestia’s personal student… on the train ride back to Ponyville. “Why are you taking the train back with us again?” asked Jeff. “Because Trixie isn’t getting a new wagon in Baltimare!” said Trixie. “Will you please stop referring to your self in the third person? It’s annoying.” Said Peirce. “No… Trixie will not, esspeiclly to a pony who encouraged Trixie to pole dance and mud wrestle.” Said Trixie. And so they return to Ponyville with the Element of Life, they were now at the midpoint and more than half way done. But they still had a lot to do, until Equestria was saved and they could go home.
