The Mane 6 along with Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy go on a big adventure

After putting the two powerful artifacts close to each other, it doesn’t go well.

Both the Elements of Harmony and the Chaos Emeralds flew off all of Equestria. So the Mane 6 and the Dreamcaster go off on a big journey to make new friends, make new rivals by accident along the way and even find some secret places.

But since the Chaos Emeralds and Elements of Harmony caused them to scatter, a some new/old and unknown bad guys come in for example: Bowser and Dr. Neo Cortex, including friends for example: Mario Brothers, Yoshi, Kirby, and Crash Bandicoot. (These characters are important, but I can only put 3 series tags)

P.S.: Violence because of fight scenes

Prologue: Trying a Video Game

In Ponyville, Twilight was sitting at the in her home, bored out of her mind because there was nothing happening at the moment. Twilight sighed and picked a book to read, but I only helped for a short time and she got even more bored.

“There’s nothing to do around here!” the purple alicorn sighed again as her purple dragon assistant Spike came in with basket full of gems.

“Hey Twilight, are you okay? You seem pretty bored?” Spike asked while Twilight groaned and responded.

“No. There’s no friendship problems,no new events, just absolutely nothing.”

Spike snickered and said, “You sound like Sonic and Rainbow Dash when they have to wait in a long line.” the purple dragon laughed, but Twilight glared at him, making he feel embarrassed. “Sorry for saying that...” Spike sheepishly said while rubbing the back of his head as he was thinking about a solutions until, ...I know! We can ask Tails to make something from keeping you bored Twilight.”

Twilight had second thought, but she realized that Sonic and his friends find new things to do from keeping them bored. “Okay Spike, let’s go check if Sonic and the other have any fun ideas.” Twilight said as Spike got on her back and she flew off to find Sonic and his friends.

Meanwhile at Sugarcube Corner, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy was in front of the counter and ask Pinkie Pie for cupcakes (Tails asked for mint flavor). Pinkie gave the her mobian friends their cupcakes, each as their respective color and style.

“Wow Pinkie, how did you make them so fast?” Amy asked Pinkie with a amazed look on her face.

“Well the fan say, ‘it Pinkie Pie, don’t question it.’ I just figure it out by random.” Pinkie simply answered

The Mobians looked confused, but shrug it off because it’s just Pinkie being Pinkie. As they walked out, Twilight landed right in front of them.

“Hey Twilight. How it going?” Knuckles ask Twilight

“Not good. There’s nothing I can do and Spike suggested I should ask you guys to help me from being bored” Twilight answer

“One thing that keeps us from being bored are video games.” Sonic said to Twilight, who gave him a raised eyebrow.

“Is that some kind of technology that comes from your world?” Twilight asked them.

“Yep and back in our world, there we so many game that it become really popular.” Tails answered as Twilight as she was trying to think about video game.

“They sound like a lot of fun Tails. Do you think you can make some kind of fighting game about us?” Spike asked the two-tail fox.

“I guess so, but it’s going to take some time to think of a our fighting moves, programming, boss, and a few more” Tails told Spike, which made Twilight frown a little.

Few days later, the Mane 6 and the Dreamcaster walked in the Golden Oak Library and they saw Tails playing his new fighting game. Suddenly, a excited Twilight popped right in front of them.

“Twilight, you seem quite trigger-happy aren’t ya?” Applejack asked Twilight and looked past her and asked Tails, “Heya Sugarcube. Whatcha doing over there?”

Tails paused the game and flew over to his friends and said, “Hey guys. Twilight and Spike wanted me to make a fighting game about us and I also want us to try this game together.”

“So you made a game, about us, fighting each other? AWESOME!” Rainbow Dash gushed as she flew over the couch and picked up the controller with her wings and picked the ‘versus mode’ and turned to her friends and said, “So who wants to challenge me, if you dare.”

“I’ll do, so I can get this over with.” Rarity answered and used her magic to pick the second controller. Rainbow Dash and Rarity picked themselves and picked a stage and shortly after, the fight begins.

“Sorry Rarity, but I’m gonna beat you 20% cooler.” Rainbow Dash mocked as she started to mash buttons and preformed a combo, then a air combo, and used a special move on Rarity, dealing a lot of damage to her while the other watch the fight as Rarity got slightly annoyed.

Rainbow Dash hit Rarity with another combo, barely giving her a chance to attack “Quit it Rainbow Dash, you could at least give me a chance!” Rarity yelled at Rainbow Dash, who smirked and proceeded to do a Hyper move and hitting her with a ‘Sonic Rainboom’ causing Rarity to lose round 1. “That not fair Rainbow Dash! I couldn’t do anything on that fight because of it!”

Rainbow Dash groaned and said, “Fine, I’ll go easy on you.” Round 2 began with Rarity looking at her controller and accidentally did a Hyper move on Rainbow Dash by not only doing a lot of damage, but put her in a fancy outfit. “What the...how did you do that?!”

Rarity shrugged and started a combo and did a loop by pressing random buttons and she somehow, beaten Rainbow Dash completely by accident and turned to Rainbow Dash with a smirk and said, “Let’s get serious, shall we?” she said making Rainbow Dash a little angry

Round 3 started with both ponies attacking each other and clashing with each other attacks it ends with one of them doing a tiny bit of damage. The fight was getting tense as the other watched closely to see who’s going to win as they two ponies had a tiny bit of health left and just one hit would finish them off and they both used a super attack and it knocked both off them out and they didn’t win or lose. The other, including Rarity and Rainbow Dash were speechless and it was silent for a few seconds.

“That was one heck of a fight wouldn’t you say.” Pinkie said as the other nodded in agreement.

“That was truly spectacular!” Rarity cheered

“I know right!” Rainbow Dash added as she went back to the the main menu until she saw ‘Boss Fight’ and asked Tails, “Yo Tails! What this mode?”

Tails looked to see what the cyan pegasus was talking about and said, “That’s a boss fight mode, it a mode where you can fight a hard boss, but I only have one boss character and he’s um...not really easy.” Tails told Rainbow Dash as she picked herself and was put up against a robot Sonic named “Mecha Sonic”.

“This is what you say as a hard boss? Ha! I can mop the floor with this dude in just flash!” Rainbow Dash bragged, but the Mecha Sonic boss suddenly attacked her and she was at half of her health. Rainbow Dash blocked his attacks and did a hyper combo on the boss, but it wasn’t enough compared to what Mecha Sonic and soon after, the battle ended and Rainbow Dash was shocked to see how quickly it ended.

Applejack grabbed the controller from Rainbow and tried to fight Mecha Sonic, but failed and the other failed too and gave up trying.

“Why is he so hard!” Knuckles complained

“Not only is he fast, but he strong too!” Pinkie Pie added

“Well I hope we don’t have to fight him again.” Fluttershy said

“Maybe we should take a break.” Applejack said as the other agreed except Twilight.

“NO! We have to keep trying! We might achieve something!” Twilight shouted, making her friends worried as she was going crazy.

“Come on Twilight, it’s the middle of the night and we’re all tired, so can we getting some rest.” Sonic stated

Twilight suddenly snapped and yelled, “NO RESTING UNTIL WE BEAT MECHA SONIC! DO YOU HERE ME.”

“Sorry Twilight, but it’s time to shut the game off now.” Amy said to Twilight as she was pulling out her hammer and destroy the console, but was pushed back by Twilight.

“If you want to do so, then you will have to get past me!” Twilight yelled as she created a magic shield protecting herself and the console, but what she didn’t know was that Spike was inside the whole time and grabbed a dictionary and smashed it into pieces before Twilight could stop him. “How dare you Spike! You ruined it!” Twilight scolded

“I was helping you Twilight!” Spike said to Twilight, who looked confused to hear what Spike said.

“What?” she asked

“You been obsessed ever since Tails was working and you begged him when will he get finished and when he did get finished with it, you played it nonstop!” Spike shot back at her.

Twilight looked at the broken console and looked back at her friends and said, “I’m so sorry everypony. It just that I never had anything to do and when I played the game for the first time, it was just amazing.” Twilight apologized to her friends as she looked down on herself.

“We can still forgive you Twilight.” Fluttershy said as they gave Twilight a group hug.

“Thanks you for forgiving me.” Twilight said, but Spike got their attention as they stopped hugging and turned to him

“Um guys, can we walk out of here before we-“ Spike was interrupted by a huge explosion that cause the other to get covered up by smoke and they fainted. They woke up and they found themselves in hospital bed and they were injured pretty bad, but luckily they didn’t lost any body parts of organs.

“This is one of the worst things to happen to us!” Amy said

“Well it’s not too bad at least.” Sonic chuckled

“At least we can rest a little longer?” Fluttershy said and seconds later, they quickly went back to sleep.

Chapter 1: The New Adventure Begins

A few day after getting out of the hospital, Twilight and her friends go back home with Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy following Twilight to the Golden Oak Library and as they got inside, they immediately relaxed and shortly after, they peacefully went to sleep. Twilight however, wasn't asleep and was studying a book about ancient artifacts and turned to a page talking about Chaos Emeralds and the Elements of Harmony.

"This sounds interesting." Twilight said as she continued reading. "The Emeralds and the Elements of Harmony are two similar artifacts and have a lot of similarity and differences and as she continued reading, she had a theory of what would happen if the Chaos Emeralds and the Elements of Harmony were close with one another and left to get the Elements of Harmony. She comes back with the Elements and looked at Sonic and the other still sleeping and woke up Sonic to help her with a theory.

"Huh, what do you want Twilight?" the blue hedgehog said, half-dazed

"Hey Sonic. Can you help me with something really quick, I need the 7 Chaos Emeralds?" the lavender alicorn asked, which made Sonic raise a eyebrow.

"Why do you need the Chaos Emeralds?" Sonic asked

"Well, I read a book about ancient artifacts and there was a page detailing the Chaos Emeralds and the Elements of Harmony and how they're the same and different and it got me thinking, what happen if we use the them together?" Twilight answered

As the two pulled out the Elements if Harmony and the Chaos Emeralds, they began floating in the air and flowed as they spinned across each. It gotten much fast and all of a sudden, a white light shined all around Equestria, causing everyone to cover their eyes. After the light died out and the Chaos Emeralds and Elements of Harmony disappear, causing Twilight and Sonic to freak out as the other Mobians woke up.

“Five more minutes mom. I’m really tired” Tails growled

Sonic tried to keep calm and said to his two-tailed friend, “Hey little buddy, what if I told you that the Chaos Emeralds the Elements of Harmony have how do I say it um, vanished.” the blue hedgehog awkwardly smile as the other gave him a panicked look.

“WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE CHAOS EMERALDS AND THE ELEMENTS OF HARMONY JUST UP AND VANISHED?!” Knuckles yelled at Sonic as he grab ahold his shoulders as he yelled in his face.

Soon the Mane 6 arrived and asked Twilight about the white flash. Twilight took a deep breath and said. “I read a section that talked about the Chaos Emeralds and the Elements of Harmony and I want to test a theory and it caused them to disappear.” Twilight said with no pauses and began to hyperventilate as the Mane 6 were as shock as the Mobians.

“Twilight. Do you know...HOW MUCH TROUBLE YOU CAUSED!” Fluttershy yelled as she covered her mouth after what she said, making Twilight feel bad about herself.

“Fluttershy, calm down. You don’t have to explode at Twilight because I helped her since she wanted to know what would happen if we used them together.” Sonic said to the Mane 6

“Sonic, it bad when Eggman gets his hand on the Emeralds, but their other from Equestria that can use the it’s power for evil like the Queen Chrysalis.” Tails told to Sonic

Suddenly, Princess Celestia, Luna, and Cadence teleported to the group with extremely worried looks on their faces after the huge white flash.

“Is everypony alright, did something evil happen, I need to know so I can keep my loyal subject safe!” Celestia continued to panic as her sister and their adopted niece try to calm her down.

“Princess Celestia! So um, here’s a funny question, what happens if you use to power artifact like the Elements of Harmony and the Chaos Emeralds together? What would happen?” Twilight asks, trying to keep calm.

“Well, if these two powerful artifacts are used together, not only do they power up the two, but they fly all over Equestria for other like Chrysalis and the Changelings or the dragons from the Dragon Land.” Princess Cadence answered.

“And if they do fall into the wrong hand, then terrible destruction will occur! We do you ask Twilight?” Princess Luna asked Twilight.

“Well Sonic and I thought what would happen if we did and we’ll...” Twilight ended as she saw the absolute horror on their face.

“YOU DID WHAT TWILIGHT!” the three princesses shouted

“Twilight. Remember when you and the other came back with the crown from the portal and told me that Sunset was able to use the Element is Magic, well that and it can lead to complete catastrophe around Equestria and it also goes with the Chaos Emeralds as well!” Princess Celestia raised her voice at Twilight.

“Hold on Princesses, don’t have to worry too much because we’re getting them back!” Sonic told the three princesses, who agreed.

“Well then, now I want the ten of you to go and find the Elements of Harmony and the Chaos Emeralds as and please make it back safe.” Princess Celestia said the Mane 6 and the Dreamcaster.

“Finally! I can go on a cool adventure!” Rainbow Dash excitedly said.

“Let me go get my things.” Pinkie said as she got a backpack and put her party cannon, cakes, cupcakes, and a few other things that’ll make the backpack explode, but it’s Pinkie Pie, so don’t question it.

As the other were getting ready, Twilight was sitting in her bed and was really excited about this new adventure as she was blaming herself for their disappearance, then Sonic comes in and saw the unhappy alicorn.

“Hey Twilight, are you still unhappy about yourself about the Chaos Emeralds and the Elements of Harmony suddenly vanish all around Equestria?” the blue hedgehog asked.

“Yes, I messed up big time, just like I always do. I changed the Parasprites diet and they almost destroyed Equestria, I castes the Want it, need it spell and made everpony go crazy over a stuffed doll. I switched my friends cutie marks and they had a horrible time trying to go with their swapped ones, but it made things worse. I think this is the biggest screw up I ever did.” Twilight explain, then began to cry as Sonic felt bad for her.

“Hey Twilight, I learn that my older self is more caring and less like Rainbow Dash. He’ll say that it’s okay that we screw up and that what makes us who we are and also, we screwed up too. I gave the Emeralds Eggman and he ended up kidnapping Tails, knuckleshead getting tricked by Eggman, twice, and Amy getting herself kidnapped by Metal.” Sonic said as he lift up Twilight’s spirts. “And the thing is, even if I screw up and I’m reminded about every time, I learn from that and move on and go on an adventure like we’re about to do now.” Sonic looked at Twilight as she gave him a hug as he smiled. “I like hugs, but not when Amy is here, she might freak out.” Sonic whispered, making Twilight giggle.

As the lavender alicorn and the light-blue hedgehog walked downstairs, they saw their friends asking Twilight if she was okay and she was a they gave each other a group hug, showing that their friendship is powerful.

When the Mane 6 and Dreamcaster walked out of the library and made their way out of Ponyville, all the ponies waved goodbye to Twilight and her friends and the 3 princesses giving Twilight a little bit of their magic as a gift.

“When we come back soon, throw a super duper-mega-fun Party!...” Pinkie yelled as her voice got quieter.

“This adventure is going to be so awesome!” Rainbow yelled excitedly. “Okay Twilight, where do we head off next?”

Twilight use her magic to show a map of all of Equestria as she examined to see where to go and put her hoof on the spot where there’s mountains and a waterfall and said, “Here!”

So our heroes go on to the location there are about to head off to, but Pinkie Pie grabbed them and took a picture of them and put in a book.

“What was that for Pinkie?” Knuckles asked

“Well if we’re going on a big huge and exciting journey, it’s only rational if we take a group photo to look back at in the end.” Pinkie Pie squee.

So they continued to head off to the mountains with a waterfall and what they didn’t know was that, someone was following them from the shadow and continued to follow our heroes and heroines undetected.

Author's Note

Well I’m see that when I do beginning chapters, they’ll be shorter than other chapters and about the story, well they need to find the elements and emeralds, what did you expect?

Chapter 2: A Deadly Threat

As our heroes make their way toward the waterfall, Twilight’s magic was sparking a little, but her friends didn’t notice it and Twilight didn’t want to tell her friends her magic gotten stronger because enemies could eve drop in their conversation. After they made it to the waterfall, it was nighttime and so the team went to sleep in sleeping bags made by Pinkie, everyone went to sleep except Twilight as she tested her improved magic abilities and it was just the same, but slightly more unstable.

“Okay, and the results of my magic is exactly the same. Question: Why does Princess Celestia, Luna, and Cadence gave a little of their magic if it haven’t changed drastically? Answer: Maybe if it can do more damage to my opponents. I guess that’s the answer.” Twilight wrote in her journal. When she used her magic to lift it, it suddenly became floater for a short time. “So this make my answer wrong and it make magic chores a breeze.” Twilight wrote again before she went to sleep.

During sunrise, the team woke up to early and Pinkie made a Pancake and Waffles for breakfast.

“This is really good!” Knuckles said as he continued eating his waffles

“Yeah Knux, what’s in it Pinkie?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“Love, and some ingredients to make pancakes and waffle filled with maple syrup.” Pinkie simply answered.

After they finished their breakfast, they decided to split up and search around the area to look for a Chaos Emerald or Element of Harmony. Sonic ran on top of the mountain to see one of the two, but the mountain began tipping over and fell. Knuckles and Pinkie dig and found nothing other than rare and unfounded fossils. Fluttershy asked her animals friends to find a Chaos Emerald and one of the Elements of Harmony, but when they came back, they came back empty handed, luckily Fluttershy gave them delicious snacks to eat. Rainbow Dash and Tails flew into the clouds and suddenly thunder roar, scaring the two-tailed fox and Rainbow laughed, but was lightly shocked by the electric cloud and the cause of it was Derpy Hooves.

“Sorry Rainbow Dash.” Derpy apologized.

“It’s fine Derpy, just try to be a little bit more careful next time will ya’.” Rainbow asked as she and Tails continued flying.

Twilight and Spike walked inside of a cave and Twilight tossed Spike on her back as she ran away screaming from a ladybug. Twilight ran so fast that she tripped over a rock and she fell into a bush.

“Come on Twilight! It’s just a ladybug...Twilight?” Spike asked as he raised his eyebrow and Twilight jumped out the bushes and revealed the grey Chaos Emerald. “We found one Twilight, let’s go tell the others.” Spike cheered as they walked to their friends, but a explosion hit them, causing them to fall back. When the dust cleared, Spike looked left and right and saw Twilight hanging off a cliff. Spike ran and tried to grab her hand, but it was too late.

“SPIIIIIIKE!” Twilight yelled as her voice echoed and fell down into a forest. Spike got up and ran to find his friends to tell them what happened. As Twilight continued falling, she used her wings to soften her fall. The alicorn princess looked around and found the Chaos Emerald and put it in her book. As she was about to leave, a sudden crash occurred as she looked to see who it was and it was a taller metal version of Sonic.

The robot got up and looked at Twilight and demanded, “Give me the Chaos Emerald.”

“No!” Twilight answered.

“Failure to follow simple order.” the robot said. “I’ll ask you one more time. Give me the Chaos Emerald!” the robot demanded again.

“I’m sorry, but me and my friends have to find the emeralds and the Elements of Harmony before someone will use it for evil.” Twilight answer.

The robot went silent for a few seconds before saying, “Well if you refuse, then I’ll have to force it myself.” the robot said as he jumped back and his arm turned into a mini gun, which surprised Twilight. As he was shooting at her, the lavender alicorn used a magic shield to protect herself from the bullets, but it broke when the robot dashed up and punch it. The robot knocked back Twilight and he did a flurry of punches and kicks and pushed his feet on her head as she was pushed into the ground.

Twilight Sparkle didn’t give up too easily and shot small magic beams at him, creating explosions, but when the smoke disappeared, he wasn’t damaged at all and he continued by knocking her by knocking her into the sky and slammed her back down to the ground like a meteor at high speeds, but he wasn’t done yet as he kicked her into multiple trees, sliding her on the ground, and knocked her into a waterfall. Twilight was badly injured, but she used her magic to turn him to a plant and it worked as Twilight sighed from relief.

“It’s finally over...” Twilight told herself, but the plant began to die and broke to reveal the robot.

“That was a good effort, but it appears that you’re life will end in a matter of seconds.” the robot told Twilight as she dashed at her again.

Meanwhile, the others continued their search and saw Spike, who was trying to tell them what happened, but they didn’t understand what he said.

“Good gravy Spike, take a breath and tell us what happen’.” Applejack told the purple dragon.

Spike took a deep breath and said, “Twilight fell of a cliff and fell into some forest! We got to help her!” Spike said as they gasped.

“We don’t have no time to lose, I’m going after her!” Rainbow Dash said as she flew off at high speeds as Sonic followed as the others followed also.

Meanwhile, Twilight was still taking a brutal beatdown by the robot as he tossed her at a huge rock with massive strength. Twilight went unconscious and the robot grabbed the book and took the Chaos Emerald inside it.

“One down, six to go.” the robot said as he stored the emerald in his body and he gained more power, he looked down at Twilight and said, “Maybe one corpse is a good way to test my new power.” the robot put his hand out and was about to kill Twilight, but Rainbow Dash kicked him in the face.

“How do you like that jerk face!” Rainbow taunted, then turned to Twilight, suddenly Sonic came in to find Twilight knocked out. “What did you do to her!” Rainbow demanded, but the robot laughed at her.

“All I did was taking something I need like a Chaos Emerald.” the robot responded which shocked Sonic and Rainbow Dash, “Well Sonic, I’m not a weak creating that was Mecha Sonic, now I’m Metallix, and when I get my hands on all seven Chaos Emeralds, I hope you and you’re friends will died my hands and so does everyone in this world!” the robot said as he quickly knocked out Rainbow Dash and Sonic. Metallix flew off, leaving Twilight, Rainbow Dash, and Sonic to be seen unconscious by their friends.

“Wh-What happened to them?!” Fluttershy yelled.

“I don’t know, but they’re hurt really bad. We have to find that is closest to us.” Applejack said as Pinkie, Tails, and Amy were speechless.

“Don’t worry, we just find the nearest town and find someone who can help them back to full health.” Knuckles tried to comfort Tails as the he, Pinkie Pie, and Amy picked them up and they walk towards a small town as they began to think who was able to beat Twilight, Rainbow Dash, and Sonic.

Author's Note

Now before you say, “Are you ripping off Super Mario Bros. Z!” Well my answer is kinda since yeah it does have Metallix, but this is gonna be different because they solved friendship problems along the way and make new friends.

Anyway, Metallix appears and beats up Twilight, Rainbow, and Sonic and took one of the Chaos Emeralds

Chapter 3: Equal Town Pt. 1

As the team carried a injured Twilight, Rainbow Dash, and Sonic, they walked over a bridge and once they made it to the cliff side, they saw a small town below them.

“I think this village might help our friends.” Rarity said but what stopped by Amy.

“Hold on. We don’t know if they like to visit strangers.” the pink hedgehog said

“Stand back everypony, I’m on it!” Pinkie told her friends as she dressed up as a thievius raccoon and she rolled down and hide behind a rock and hide out of plain sight as she gave a hoof signal to her friends while Pinkie found a safe under a rock and found a wrench and she put it in her hair.

After that, they saw the town up close and saw all the ponies who looked a little bit off than normal.

“Does anyone notice that they have the same cutie mark?” Knuckles pointed out

“Knuckles right and those smiles, they don’t look like any smile I seen before and I know what is true smile or not!” Pinkie added.

“Well maybe if we can find someone who can help us.” Fluttershy said.

“I don’t, but it looks like we have no other choice.” Applejack said as they walked towards the small village. Once they made it there, the townsfolk gave them creepy smiles and welcomed them, which uneases them.

“Hi!” One of the townsfolk said as he looked at Tails, Knuckles, and Amy and asked, “I never seen you three before and don’t look like ponies at all?”

“Well my name is Miles “Tails” Prower, but call me Tails and this is Knuckles, the red echidna and Amy Rose, the pink hedgehog and this is Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Spike, and Pinkie Pie.” Tails answered as they waved to him. “Can you tell us who you ponies are?”

“Well my name is Party Favor and the one up there is Night Glider, and here’s Double Diamond.” the pony names Party Favor answered.

“Welcome. What brings you here?” Double Diamond asked the heroes, and they show their three badly injured friends, which caused the other ponies to look shocked as their smiles turned to concerned faces. “Oh my goodness, what happened to them?”

“To be honest with ya’ partner, I don’t know, Rainbow and Sonic ran off to help Twilight, and when we caught up to them, they were knocked out cold, do you know anypony who can help them?” Applejack asked.

“Of course we can, just wait here while I’ll tell the town found, Starlight Glimmer about this.” Double Diamond answered as he and Party Favor guided them to find this Starlight pony.

“I wished everypony in Equestria could act this nice.” Fluttershy said

“I don’t know, this stating to give me the creeps.” Spike told Fluttershy.

“I've got my eye on them. Something's rotten in... whatever the name of this village is that we're in right now!” Pinkie stated as she ate an entire cupcake as she looked serious while the other ponies followed them with those creepy smiles

The made it to a door and both Double Diamond and Party Favor knocked and said, “Starlight, we have some visitors.” They walked inside the house and they looked around the inside of the house.

Amy pulled out her hammer and whispered to Knuckles, “Get ready Knuckles, who knows who gonna come out that door.” The door opened and revealed to be the pony named Starlight Glimmer.

“Welcome! I’m so pleased to have you here.” Starlight Glimmer greeted

“This is Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Spike, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy Rose.” Double Diamond told Starlight. “And here’s Sonic, Rainbow Dash, and Twilight Sparkle, they seem pretty hurt, can you help them.”

“Well of course, and we don’t let anypony seriously hurt in our town.” Starlight said as she levitated Twilight, Rainbow, and Sonic upstairs to a bed and quickly came back downstairs to the other. “They’ll be in shape in a couple of hours, but in the meantime, and oops, I forgot to introduce and I guess they told you that my name is Starlight Glimmer.”

“Yes ma’am.” Spike said

“Well since you’re here, we're happy to have you! We're happy to have anypony who wants to experience true friendship for the first time.” Starlight said, which caused them look stunned to here that.

“What do you mean?” Fluttershy asked

“Oh, indeed. That's what's so unique about our village, you see. Around here, we don't flaunt our special talents because we don't have any special talents to flaunt.” Starlight vaguely stated as she fixed the picture of a equal sign.

“Is that why everyone here have the same cutie marks?” Tails asked, but they didn’t notice the slight annoyance from Starlight.

“Perhaps it would be easier to understand if I gave you a tour of the village!” Starlight said as they walked outside as Starlight gathered the townsfolk as they followed either behind her or alongside. “Heads high, ponies! Marching proud! All together now! Every one of you! No pony left behind!”

(Our Town)

[Starlight Glimmer]
Life is so grand in Our Town
We're always filled with cheer
We never have to look around
To know that we're all here

[Citizens]
In Our Town, in Our Town
We don't have to wait
To find out that our destiny
Is just to emulate

The citizens sang as they circled around the heroes, making them a little uncomfortable by it.

“Let's see those big, happy smiles!” Starlight shouted as they smile even bigger.

[Starlight Glimmer]
Life is a smile in Our Town
Our cutie mark's the same
Because we do not separate
Ourselves by more than name

[Citizens]
In Our Town, in Our Town
We dare not compete
Winning only breeds the worst
Ego-filled conceit

As they continued singing, two pegasi flew up to Tails and when they hold on to the flying two-tailed fox, they slowly put him down to the ground including themselves. Tails looked at his friends and shrugged, then suddenly Starlight popped out right behind him.

“You see? Now everypony wins!” Starlight told Tails.

[Starlight Glimmer]
Life is a joy in Our Town
We're all equal here
No one is superior
And no one shakes in fear

While Starlight walked on, one of the ponies hair-style was different and she used her magic to turn it into a Goldilocks hairstyle, which made the heroes grow more and more suspicious to her except Fluttershy.

[Citizens]
In Our Town, in Our Town
We work as a team
You can't have a nightmare
If you never dream

The singing citizens march in rows of fours and this made the heroes both suspicious and creeped out with the exception of Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy.

[Starlight Glimmer]
Other ponies argue
Do you ever wonder why?
When you think your talent's special
You don't see eye-to-eye
There's just too many differences
That lead to disarray
But when you learn to act as one
It's like a holiday

Starlight sang to Pinkie and Amy, which causes the pink hedgehog to pull out her hammer, but she quickly put it away before Starlight saw it and then Starlight made the other mane 4 to be the same height with each other and when she walked away from them, one mare pony was dancing off key, but she quickly corrected herself before Starlight saw her.

[Citizens]
In Our Town, in Our Town
We don't complicate
When you learn to simplify
Life is oh, so great
Join in our utopia
Come out of the dark
Banded by equality
By our cutie mark!

While they were singing, the heroes looked at each other and Fluttershy smiled to the music, but Pinkie shook her head which upset the shy pegasus

*End of Song*

“What in the heck are you talking about, they can’t just give up their cutie mark!” Knuckles said.

“Don’t be so rude Knuckles. I think we shouldn’t judge them. They all seem perfectly happy with their choice.“ Fluttershy said.

“Don't believe their smiles, Fluttershy.”

“Sorry Starlight, but I’m so confused by all of this?” Tails asked

“I know it’s confusing. We have no judgements here in our village. Each of us was confused once as well, blinded by the false promise of our cutie marks.” Starlight told.

“You cannot be this serious?!” Amy said as she was so speechless by it.

“While you’re friends are back to full health, Double Diamond always help our guest around the town, can you do that for me.” Starlight asked Double Diamond, who agreed and the heroes followed behind him as Starlight walked towards her home and said to herself “Well, this will certainly provide a boost to our little community. When the rest of Equestria sees that a princess and her friends gave up their cutie marks to join us, they'll finally understand what we're trying to accomplish.”

As the heroes followed Double Diamond and were greeted by welcomes from other townsfolk, Tails was in his train of thought.

“From what I remember from Twilight, she said.” Tails said to himself as the words from what Twilight told him about cutie marks are in a flashback.

“A cutie mark is a representation of a pony's unique talents and skills.” Twilight voice echoed in his head.

“How is it possible to—“ Tails was interrupted by Rarity.

“What in the name of Equestria is that?!” Rarity shrieked as she pointed at a earth pony stallion with old fashioned clothing.

“Welcome! Care to sample some local fashion? We've got cloaks this month!” the earth pony stallion asked Rarity with a big as she was about to gag.

“Wha— Ooh, er, perhaps another time, good sir, thank you.” Rarity politely told the stallion as the heroes sat down on a dinner and Rarity whispered to Applejack, “No wonder nopony's wearing anything!”

“You mean the part where she was singing isn’t the weirdest part of this village?” Amy whispered to Rarity.

Fluttershy hushed the two and whispered, “Really you two, just because thing they are different, doesn’t mean you can be rude to them just for that.”

“I’m sorry Fluttershy, but these ponies are really suspicious and they won’t stop staring at us with those odd smiles.” Pinkie whispered to Fluttershy.

“Do you need anything?” Double Diamond asked.

“No sir.” Tails answered, then turned to Pinkie and whispered, “I’m not 99% sure, but Fluttershy's right about this, we have to get to the bottom of this.” While he was talking, a pony named Sugar Belle walked behind them and tried to get their attention, but they didn’t notice her.

“It think if we just grab our friends after they’re back healthy, we can get on outta here!” Applejack hushed as she slammed her hoof on the table

“Can we just stop bickering about this. Applejack, you’re almost as worst as Rainbow Dash.” Fluttershy told Applejack.

“Hey don’t put me in this!” a voice said and it was Rainbow Dash, Sonic, and Twilight and they were happy for them, especially Amy.

“SONIC! YOU’RE OKAY!” Amy screamed as she ran and hugged Sonic, who was uncomfortable about it.

“I know you were worried about me, but could you not squeeze me to death again.” Sonic said as Amy let go of him.

“I hope I’m nothing interrupting anything and I like to introduce myself and my name is Sugar Belle. I couldn’t notice that you weren’t happy talking to each other? Is your friendship ending because it sounded like you were disagreeing with each other?”

“No, our friendship isn’t ending, we just had a slightly different opinion with each other.” Twilight said to Sugar Belle.

“Well what would you like to eat. We have muffins.” Sugar Belle suggested to the group.

“Make it twenty-five please?” Pinkie asked Sugar Belle as she walked into her kitchen, which cause her friends to raise an eyebrow at her. “What? I’mhungry!” Pinkie defended

“I know this town isn’t like Ponyville, but we have to stick together. What happening now must be solved.” Twilight said to her friends.

“I guess you’re right, but once we figure this out, we can continue finding the Chaos Emeralds and the Elements of Harmony.” Applejack said as a stack of muffins was put right in front of them.

“Forgive me for overhearing, but just a moment ago you were disagreeing, and now it sounds like you're... agreeing.” Sugar Belle asked the heroes as Applejack gave her a yes answer. “Well, you had such differing opinions – and cutie marks.”

“Well we might have different opinions, we’re still friends until the end.” Sonic said as Double Diamond looked at Sugar Belle, making her nervous.

Sugar Belle turned back to the heroes and answered, “I'm sorry, I'm just having a hard time understanding. Different talents lead to different opinions, which lead to bitterness and misery. So... why aren't you bitter and...?” Sugar Belle cut herself off when Pinkie spit out the cupcake she was eating, but she quickly smiled and complemented the cupcake. “It's all right. I know I'm not a very good baker. At least, I know I'm not any better than anypony else in the village. Well, I... hope you enjoy our little village!” Sugar Belle quickly looked back at Double Diamond, who stood from his chair without smiling. “Come inside before you go! Meet me downstairs!” Sugar Belle zips into her house and shut the door too.

“Okay, that was weird too.” Rainbow Dash pointed out.

“Let's just sit here and eat these muffins and act normal. I think we're being watched.” Amy said as she looked to see the townsfolk looking at them with huge smiles.

“You think?” Rainbow Dash said

“No, not like that! What Amy means is that somepony here doesn't want us talking to Sugar Belle.” Twilight said as she looked back at Double Diamond, who looked away and ate his muffin.

“I thought of a plan, but Pinkie, you’ll have to eat these muffin.” Sonic hushed to Pinkie, who retaliated in defense.

“Why me?”

“You got a stronger stomach than any of us, and that filly in there might be our best chance at findin' out what the hay is goin' on round here.” Applejack added and Pinkie reluctantly agreed and hesitated to eat the twenty-five muffins and shortly after, Pinkie was able to eat all the muffins, but her face turned green and her stomach gurgled.

“Oh my goodness Pinkie! You ate all our muffins! We'd best go inside and get some more!“ Applejack acted as they walked inside Sugar Belle’s house and made their way downstairs.

“Nice work, Pinkie.” Twilight said while a heavy Pinkie Pie tumbled down the stair and landed on the floor.

“And I thought electric wires was bad enough...” Pinkie said as she instantly turned back to normal and they saw Sugar Belle, Night Glider, and Party Favor walking from the shadows.

“So what do you need us for?” Twilight asked

“So nopony could see what's about to happen.” Sugar Belle said as they got closer to the heroes as they got into fighting position, but then the 3 ponies immediately asked them questions.

“Are you really the Princess of Friendship?” Party Favor asked Twilight.

“How do you have two tails?” Night Glider asked Tails as she looked at his Tails.

“What these spikes on your hooves?” Part Favor asked Knuckles as he hold up his hands.

“I just love your cutie mark!” Sugar Belle complemented Pinkie as she looked at the pink pony’s mark.

“Are the you four blank flanks because you don’t have cutie marks?” Night Glider pointed to the mobians, the turned to the Mane 6 and asked, “And how can you be friends with different cutie marks? Don't you end up hating each other?”

“Look at this one! This one great too!” Sugar Belle said while looking at Fluttershy’s cutie mark. “I'd love to have my special talent back even just for a day! Make something besides those disgusting muffins...” Sugar Belle said as her voice sounded sad.

“So what’s stopping you?” Go get your cutie marks back.” Rainbow suggested to the three ponies.

“Daydreaming is one thing, but you mean actually having it put back on? That seems extreme.” Party Favor said.

“I'm not sure Starlight would like that. She wants us all to be happy in our sameness.” Sugar Belle told the heroes.

“Sameness?” The heroes asked.

“But nobody should keep your cutie mark, it’s important for you.” Sonic said

“Oh, we're not kept from them. They're in the vault up in the caves. We can visit them any time we like to remind us of the heartache of a life with special talents.” Night Glider told the heroes.

“That’s really sadistic.” Amy replied

“Can we visit the cave?” Twilight asked as they walked to Starlight’s house and she said yes and soon enough, they walked the cave they were told about.

“I'm delighted you're interested in our cutie mark vault. We hope someday every pony in Equestria will make a pilgrimage here to our little village to have theirs removed too, and our message of...” Starlight continued while the heroes whispered to each other.

“Once we enter this cave, we gonna smash that safe and free everyone’s cutie mark.” Sonic hushed.

“But something’s off about Starlight Glimmer? The words she says are really vague and uneasy.” Twilight hushed to her friends.

“Oh, are you sure? Maybe they miss them a little, but even they didn't seem all that unhappy.” Fluttershy hushed to Twilight.

“But why did they want to talk to us in secret? And why did they ask us not to tell Starlight who told us about the vault?“ Tails hushed to Fluttershy. After a few minutes, they enter the cave and right in front of them was a huge collection of the other ponies cutie marks.

“Just through here! Behold! Our cutie mark vault!” Starlight told the heroes as she levitated a magic staff and said, “And here is the Staff of Sameness. It was one of the great Mage Meadowbrook's nine enchanted items. We are incredibly fortunate to have it here. This is the tool that allows us to free ourselves from our marks!” Starlight said, but then turned to the heroes and asked, “I'm curious – how did the subject of the vault come up?”

“Oh, some ponies were—“ Pinkie accidentally said before Amy covered up her mouth.

“Were they? Well, it seems you inspire all sorts of free thinking, don't you?” Starlight said to the heroes.

“Well, w-we certainly didn't intend to cause any disruptions to your charming little—“ Rarity nervously said, but was cut off by Starlight.

“Good. Let's just make sure of that, shall we?” Starlight said as Double Diamond and multiple other ponies slowly walked towards them.

“It's a trap!” Twilight yelled as she teleported in the air, but Starlight used the Staff of Sameness on Twilight as her cutie mark was ripped off from her and was replaced by a equal cutie mark and her coat turned a little grey.

Twilight felled on the ground and her friends was hit by the Staff of Sameness and their cutie marks were ripped from them and their marks were now equal signs. Sonic’s shoes turned orange and the bottom of his shoe had a equal sign on it, Tails’ tails disappeared from him, Knuckles’ spikes on his hands disappeared, and Amy’s hammer was taken from her and their fur was slightly grey and they fell on the ground.

“Aw. I don't blame you for what you tried to do here today. You've spent your whole lives thinking those marks and abilities are a good thing.” Starlight mocked.

“You won’t get away from this.” Twilight said.

“Well, now you can spend the rest of your lives here with us! And we'll teach you just how much better life can be without your cutie marks!” Starlight said as the other ponies picked them up and took them away from the vault and back to their town.

To be continued...

Author's Note

After a brutal encounter with Metallix and losing their special talents from Starlight Glimmer. Looks like things aren’t going well on their quest.

Chapter 4: Equal Town Pt. 2

As the heroes were carried back to the village, the ponies opened a door and softly put them weaken heroes on the floor and closed and locked the door behind them. When they woke up, Rainbow and Knuckles tried to bust down the door, but without their special abilities, they could break it down while Starlight voice was heard from the loudspeaker saying.

“In sameness, there is peace. Exceptionalism is a lie. Free yourself from your cutie mark. Choose equality as your special talent.“

This causes the heroes to go a little insane as time progressed.

“Hey you know. This book isn’t that bad after all.” Pinkie said as she flipped through the book, just showing the equal sign they have and suddenly, Amy kicked the book and yelled.

“The book have 800 pages of that equal sign!”

“Be your best by never being your best.” Starlight voice was heard by the loudspeaker.

Twilight got fed up by it and said, “We have to get out of here with our cutie marks. I can’t stand hearing that voice over and over again!”

“Oh this is the worst I have to endure in my entire life!” Rarity complained as she cried.

“There, there, Rarity... It's not so bad...” Fluttershy said as she comforted Rarity, who moved her shoulder away

“Yes, it is! Look at those drapes! I have no idea if they're tacky or not!” Rarity argued as she pointed at the drape to Fluttershy.

“I think they like look nice.” Fluttershy answered to Rarity

All of a sudden, Rarity cutie mark glowed and she said, “So do I!“ Rarity cried as her tears were like small water fountains.

Fluttershy took a few steps back and heard a tweet and when she looked, it was a blue bird that was a flicky. “Oh, thank goodness! Can you help us, little birdie?” Fluttershy asked, but her mark glowed just like Rarity. “Go on, now! Fly away and get us help!” Fluttershy asked, but the flicky was confused.

“Hey little guy, can you help us get out?” Tails asked since he knew Flicky language, but it couldn’t understand him either and then it flew away. “I don’t understand? Fluttershy’s good with animals and I know Flicky language and know it’s tweets are hard to understand.” Tails said as he sat down and crosses his arms, looking down on himself and so does Fluttershy.

While Rainbow and Knuckles tried to bust down the door as hard as they could, they moved out of the way when Applejack kick the door, but somehow fell back. “Well shoot! This door is sturdier’ than...a...a...Ah dunno, I can’t even make countryisms any more.” Applejack admitted when her mark started to glow.

“I don't know! Maybe it'll be super fun to be all the same!” Pinkie said

“...Are you joking me right now?” Sonic said as Pinkie’s mark started to glow and then acted drastically different from what she normally acts

“Sort of. More pleasant than fun, I guess...” Pinkie said as she turned around and continued flipping through the book.

“What if I used my spindash, maybe that should work?” Sonic said to himself as he was revving up a spindash and when he dashed, he began bouncing all over the place and nearly hitting his friends and when it stopped, he gotten dizzy from that experience.

“Something odd about that staff. I haven't studied Eastern unicorns as much as I should have, but I'm pretty sure Meadowbrook only had eight magical items, not nine. And I don't remember any of them being a staff.” Twilight said as she walked back and forth.

“You’ll have to figure it out while we’re stuck in here.” Knuckles said as he sat down in the corner near the door.

“Choose equality as your special talent. Difference is frustration. To excel is to fail. Be your best by never being your best. Conformity will set you free. Accept your limitations, and happiness will follow. You're no better than your friends.” Starlight said as time passed until nighttime and voice faded under.

“I got it!” Twilight said as her friends exclaimed in surprise. “I know just a way to get out of here!”

Rainbow sighed and said, “News flash Twilight. Nothing working with this stupid door.” But suddenly, the door opened to see it was Starlight Glimmer.

“What do want know Starlight! To make us join this mess-up town of yours!” Sonic said as they got into fighting position as Starlight closed the door. Starlight touched her hoof and she changed into a mobian just like Sonic.

“Are you a changeling and who are you!” Twilight said as she pointed her horn at the mobian.

Tails immediately ran up to the mobian and hugged her and said, “Auntie Sally! You’re here!” This made the Mane 6 look confused.

“And how in the hay is that there’ ya auntie Tails and how can we trust her.” Applejack asked.

“Well back at home, Sally’s not a tough leader of the Freedom Fighters, a amazing princess, and always treat her friends with kindness, she also took care of Tails like a parent of some sort.” Sonic said as he introduced the mobian named Sally Acorn.

“Just like me and Spike.” Twilight said and she looked around for Spike. “Wait a minute? Where is Spike?”

“He left while we weren’t looking?” Tails said as Twilight panicked, then she took deep breath.

“Okay, the Chaos Emeralds and the Elements of Harmony are gone, I got beaten up by a metal robot and now Spike’s missing.” Twilight facepalmed her face.

“Um...it’s really nice to meet you girls?” Sally said to the Mane 6, but saw Tails without his namesake. “Tails! Where are your tails?!”

“Starlight Glimmer took our cutie marks and Sonic and the others lost their powers and we know that Starlight is very suspicious about something?” Twilight told Sally, then asked her a question, “Hey Sally is it, why did you come here as Starlight and what brought you here also?”

“Well back on Mobius, I was working on creating some tools like a grappling hook and a laser sword and suddenly, a portal opened and it suck me in and when I woke up, I was near this village and I equipped my new tools and looked at this place from a distance. And the reason I disguise myself as Starlight Glimmer was because I could tell you guys a secret about her when I saw you being put inside here.” Sally explained as the heroes looked at each other and looked back at Sally.

“So what is it Sal?” Sonic asked

“That Starlight pony has a cutie mark.” Sally answered as the heroes gasped in shock.

“How did you know Starlight has a cutie mark?!” Rarity asked.

“Well before I came here, I looked at out at Starlight’s window when I saw her drying herself from getting wet and I saw her with real cutie mark.” Sally said as she remembered from a flashback where Double Diamond is giving Starlight the heroes marks (the mobians have icons of their powers).

“I don’t understand Starlight, why are you keep their cutie marks?” Double Diamond asked.

“Because if they leave, they would steal their cutie marks back, so I going to keep an eye on them. Now go get some sleep Double Diamond.”

As Double Diamond walked back to his house, Starlight walked upstairs and she accidentally splashed water on herself. She used her magic to dry herself and Sally saw her with her own cutie mark. Starlight put down the towel and covered up her own mark with a fake equal one as the flashback ended.

“That Starlight! She taking everypony’s cutie mark and she keeping her’s!” Rainbow yelled.

“But there might be a way to expose her on the spot!” Tails said as he hit his fist on his hand.

“And we know just the pony that can do it.” Twilight said as they looked at Fluttershy.

“Me?!”

“You been talking about how nice this place is.” Rainbow said

“But that's because everypony's so nice and their village is so pretty, and, and... Oh, you're right. They probably would believe me. I hate to lie to them. They've been so welcoming and friendly... aside from locking us in here and trying to brainwash us into abandoning the things that make us special...” Fluttershy said, then a thought hit her. “Oh. Okay, then I’ll do it.”

Twilight turned to Sally and said, “You should get out of here before morning. We don’t want Starlight figuring out what we’re trying to do.” Twilight asked and Sally nodded and left out the house and closed the door behind her.

After Sally left, the heroes left as went to sleep until morning and were woken up by the loudspeaker, then Starlight opened the door with the other citizens standing behind her.

“I trust you had a pleasant night? This way, please. There are some friendswho'd like to see you. Gather round, friends, gather round! We've come to ask if any of you are ready to join us! There are so many friends to be made once you realize you don't need your cutie marks or the talents that come with them.” Starlight said as the heroes stepped outside to see the door the other citizens, including Sugar Belle, Night Glider, and Party Favor smiling at them.

“We have a welcome ceremony for new friends!” Double Diamond said as Twilight bumped Fluttershy shoulder to start the plan. “The whole village joins together to build you your own cottage—“ Double Diamond was interrupted by Fluttershy as she yelled.

“I'd like to join!” This caused the citizens to talking to each while being stunned, including Starlight.

“Fluttershy?! But...we’re friends right?!” Twilight acted.

“Yeah but, these ponies are friendly and so is this village isn’t bad as you said it was.” Fluttershy said.

“Starlight took our talents and you’re siding with her?!” Sonic questioned Fluttershy.

“Well if you don’t agree with my! Then I don’t want to be your friend anymore!” Fluttershy asserted

“You do that while we refuse to join this town!” Twilight said as the heroes walked back inside, leaving Fluttershy to tear up a while Starlight comforted her.

“I know it’s hard from them to join our town, but it’s going to be alright.” Starlight said to Fluttershy, then asked. “Do you need anything Fluttershy?”

Fluttershy stopped crying and asked, “A glass of water please?” Starlight walked back to her house and came back with a glass of water and gave it to Fluttershy. “Thanks you.” Fluttershy said, but she “accidentally” spilled the water on Starlight, but she moved out of the way. Unfortunately, the water dripped on her cutie mark revealing her real cutie mark as the citizens gasped while Fluttershy opened the door her friends were in.

“Wha... What are you looking at?! They're the problem, not me!” Starlight tried to defend herself by blaming the heroes, but the citizens didn’t believe her.

“How could you Starlight? Party Favor asked.

“You said cutie marks were evil! You said special talents led to pain and heartache!” Double Diamond also asked.

“We gave up ours and you kept yours?” Sugar Belle asked too. “Why did you?”

Starlight tired to lie again, but told the harsh truth by said, “I had to, you fools! How could I collect your cutie marks without my magic?!”

“But the staff have all the magic we need?” Night Glider asked.

“The staff is a piece of wood I found in the desert! It's my magic that makes all this possible! You'd all still be living your miserable lives thinking you're better than everypony else if it weren't for my magical abilities! I brought you friendship! I brought you equality! I created harmony!” Starlight yelled, but a voice was heard by a echo.

“You didn’t create friendship and harmony!” Sally said as she jumped right in front of the heroes and pointed at them say, Twilight and her friends did and back at home, Sonic always put his friends first to protect us from evil and we support him until the ends of earth!” Sally said as smiled at the heroes as they smiled back.

“And you lied to us about everything!” Double Diamond added.

“N-No I haven’t?! The only way to be happy is if we're all equal!“ Starlight said.

“Except for you.” Party Favor told Starlight as her horn glowed and she gritted her teeth, then turned to Twilight as she was speaking.

“Everypony has unique talents and gifts, and when we share them with each other, that's how rea—” Twilight said, but was interrupted by Starlight.

“QUIET!” Starlight yelled as the heroes looked at her with surprised looks.

“You can't have a cutie mark, Starlight! Either we're all equal, or none of us are!” Sugar Belle said as the citizens walked up to Starlight as she was slowly backed away from them, but she bumped into the heroes as they cornered her, but she used her magic to push them away and she ran into her house.

“Come on! Let's get our cutie marks back!” Double Diamond shouted as the citizens ran into the cave to get their cutie marks.

“Let’s go get out cutie marks from Starlight!” Rainbow yelled as they ran up to Starlight’s house.

Meanwhile in the cave, the citizens banged in the vault, trying to get their cutie marks.

“Stand back everypony!” Double Diamond yelled as she ran with the staff and he tossed it at the vault, causing it to crack and suddenly, all the citizens got their cutie marks and their manes changed. The remaining few cutie marks flew out the cave as the heroes looked astonished by it.

“Even without my cutie mark, I can tell this is beautiful!” Rarity said as they looked at the cutie marks as Starlight looked out of her window.

“They think they can come to my village and disrupt my life?” Starlight said as she walked up to the jar with the heroes cutie marks/emblems. “Let's see how they like spending the rest of their lives without their precious cutie marks!” Starlight levitated the bed out of the way and she moved it back in place.

Outside, Applejack, Sonic, and Rarity tried to break down the door when Sally told the to move over as she touched her bracelet and when it formed into a sword, she cut it down with ease as she put it away. When she turned around, the heroes mouths were hanging while Rainbow gushed. After that, they looked around the house and too their shock, their cutie marks were gone and saw that Starlight was nowhere to be seen. Shortly after, Night Glider, Party Favor, Double Diamond, and Sugar Belle pushed the bed and found a secret passage and they walked downstairs. Soon after, they walked out of a tunnel and they quickly looked around when Night Glider spotted Starlight. Party Favor used his ability to make binoculars and he spotted Starlight much closer.

“She's headed for the pass! If she makes it into those mountains, we'll never find her!” Party Favor said, then Pinkie took a look with the balloon binoculars.

“These are amazing!” Pinkie said as she looked with them.

“There's a whole network of caves up there! Your cutie marks will be gone forever!” Sugar Belle told the heroes.

“Then there no time ah wastin’ ya’all!” Applejack said as they chased after her, but Rainbow Dash and Sonic glowed as their speed were like a peaceful walk in a park while the four other ponies chased after Starlight.

“Are you kidding me!” Rainbow and Sonic yelled as they followed their friends, who were walking at the same speed.

As Starlight continued running away, Night Glider caught up to Starlight when she said, “Are you all so willing to give up everything because of these strangers?!” Starlight used her magic to cause snow to fall on Night Glider.

“We gave up everything for you, because we thought you were our friend!” Sugar Belle said to Starlight as she, Double Diamond, Party Favor, and Night Glider continued to chase her while the heroes slowly followed them.

“I can’t believe it?! We’re suppose to get our cutie marks, and we have to rely on these other ponies.

“Well if it weren’t for that robot guys that knocked us out, we wouldn’t be here helping these ponies getting back their cutie marks.” Sonic told to Rainbow Dash.

“And they’re returning the favor!” Twilight added.

“And I know they can do it!” Fluttershy said

As the other ponies continued chasing Starlight, Sugar Belle picked up some snow with her magic and turned it into a snow pie. “My newest recipe – snow pie! It’s on the house!” Sugar Belle said as she tossed the snow pie at Starlight, breaking the carrier that was holding the cutie marks/emblems as they fell out and they almost hit the ground, but Starlight quickly caught with her magic.

Starlight continued running away, then she turned around and destroyed the bridge and continued escaping. Fortunately, Party Favor used his balloons and quickly created and new bouncy bridge. While they continued, Double Diamond stopped and looked at some skiing gear and a helmet.

“Whoa! These are my old skis!” Double Diamond said as he looked at his skis. “This is where I first met Starlight!”

“Maybe you can reminisce another time! She's almost to the caves!” Night Glider reminded Double Diamond as he looked back at her saying.

“How about an airdrop!” Double Diamond said as he put on his skis and helmet as Night Glider carried him in the air. As Starlight continued escaping and almost made it to the cave, she spotted Night Glider And Double Diamond in the air as Night Glider dropped him on the snow and it caused the snow to fall on the Starlight. The jars Starlight was carrying suddenly dropped and they broke as the cutie marks/emblems returned to the heroes as they regained their color, but Tails got his tails back, Knuckles regained his strength, Amy was able to smash things with her hammer, and Sonic ran fast as his feet were in a figure 8 motion.

“Yee-haw! Finally, I can buck like a five-bit snake herder in an Appleloosa ranch house again!” Applejack said as she kicked in the air.

“Hey. You also got you countryisms too.” Fluttershy said as the Flicky came back with Spike, who was really worried.

“Twilight, I came as fast as I could when this little bird said the you guys were in some kind of trouble!” Spike apologized.

“It’s alright Spike and it’s a good thing that you came here.” Twilight told Spike, who smiled.

From the snow pile the four ponies backed up a bit when Starlight popped up from the snow with anger on her face as she was about to shot them, but Twilight jumped in the way and created a magic shield to protect them to Starlight shock.

“Wh– I studied that spell for years! How can you—” Starlight stuttered, but was interrupted by Twilight.

“I studied magic for years too! But what I didn't know then was that studying could only take me so far. Each of my friends has taught me something different about myself! It was their unique gifts and passions and personalities that helped bring out the magic inside of me! I never would have learned that I represent the element of magic without the eleven of them! And I certainly wouldn't be here to stop you now!” Twilight told Starlight as her friends walked up behind her, but Starlight retaliated.

“Spare me your sentimental nonsense! I gave these ponies real friendships they never could've had otherwise!” Starlight said.

“How do you know that?! You never even gave us a chance!” Double Diamond yelled at Starlight as she gritted her teeth and while flash shined and when it died out, a small snow crater appeared the last place they saw Starlight.

“She gotten away!” Rainbow yelled as she looked inside the cave.

“We'll never find her in there!” Double Diamond said.

“Well maybe when she comes back, she’ll remember that she doesn’t have to force friendship and become our friend.” Tails said.

“We just have to hope that when she's had a chance to think it over, she realizes that you all have taught her something.” Twilight said to the other ponies.

“It's you who have taught us something. We all came to this village because we were searching for something missing from our lives. We thought Starlight had given it to us, but now... now it seems it was in front of us all along. It's us!” Party Favor said.

“So does that mean you’ll be staying in that village?” Amy asked.

“It's our home. I'm not going anywhere.” Night Glider answered.

“This is a chance for all of us to get to know each other again for the very first time!” Double Diamond added.

“And I finally have a chance to bake something besides terrible muffins!” Sugar Belle said as the four of them laughed. Soon after, a shining light shined inside the empty cave as they walked inside and saw a floating card with a star with a grey mustache.

“What the heck is that?” Sonic asked

“I don’t know Sonic?” Sally answered to Sonic, then she turned to Twilight and asked, “Twilight, can you touch it?”

Twilight nodded and when she touched it, the card floated above her and then, the star appeared in front of them.

“Thank you young heroes. I was trapped in her by Bowser and as a reward for your efforts, I’ll give you a magic and power boost.” the star said as sparkle surrounded them. “I can’t stay here as I go back to Star Haven.”

“Wait! Who is this Bowser guy and what’s Star Haven?” Twilight asked, but the star flew above the clouds.

“This...is...AMAZING!” Pinkie yelled as she began to shake and shot up like a rocket and blasted off into space.

“Is she always like this?” Sally asked as the other nodded in agreement.

“That just Pinkie bein’ Pinkie Sal girl.” Applejack said as Sally put her hand on her chin.

“Hey Applejack. You remind me of a friend of mine.” Sally said to Applejack.

“Oh really? What her name?” Applejack asked

“Bunny Rabbot.” Sally said, then turned around saying, “Well I better go.” Sally said, but was stopped by Amy.

“Hold on Sally! You came all this way just to help us and you’re leaving, can you at least join us?” Amy asked as Sally took a moment, then she agreed.

“Why don’t you guys come back to town while I cook up something that isn’t terrible.” Sugar Belle said

“Yeah, I guess we can stay a little bit longer.” Twilight said

“Ah just hope that Pinkie would be alright in space?” Applejack said as she looked in the sky.

“I wouldn’t worry too much because Pinkie can make friends with anyone like a breeze just like Amy.” Sonic told Applejack as Amy hid her face as she was blushing as they walked back to the village.

Author's Note

So the heroes returned the cutie marks back to the citizens from Starlight Glimmer, found a star as it floated up in space, Pinkie has blasted up to space, and Sally has tagged along the journey.

However, the incident that happened back at Twilight’s house and with the reason why Sally’s here now, there could be more dimensional rift from other dimension.

Chapter 6: Double Trouble

So the heroes, Double Diamond, Night Glider, Sugar Belle, and Party Favor returned to the village and after a celebration with sweet muffins, pies, balloons, and etc.

“It’s too bad your friends isn’t her to eat my delicious muffins, she asked for twenty-five right?” Sugar Belle asked

“Believe me Sugar Belle, we’re all worried about Pinkie blasting off into space, but she can find her way back home.” Fluttershy said.

“Even though Sonic and his friends went to space, I’m sure Pinkie will be alright.” Rainbow said with a tiny bit of jealousy.

Sonic looked around asked, “I don’t want to be rude, but can everyone here have a muffin or pie since we didn’t do all the work.”

“Hm? Now you think about it, this is a party and everypony did their part?” Party Favor questioned.

“And if we give them the muffins and pies, everypony else will feel left out?” Night Glider added.

“It not rude Sonic because everypony can have a muffin and pie!” Sugar Belle said as all the citizens cheered and a few minutes later, Sugar Belle came back with a bunch of muffins and pies. After a while, all the muffins and pies were eaten.

“That some good muffins yer’ got there!” Applejack complemented.

“So I guessing you’ll be going now.” Double Diamond said

“It’s alright darling, we’ll visit every now and then to see your type and fashion...” Rarity said, but got a stern look from Applejack, “...and see if everypony is doing very well.”

“That’s alright.” Party Favor said.

“Goodbye!” the citizens shouted as the heroes left the village.

As they continued their adventure, Twilight was still guilty about the Chaos Emeralds and the Elements of Harmony incident. But something made her think, “If the Emeralds and the Elements can open portals from other worlds, does that include time as well?”

“Alright Sally Acorn! How did you make a cool sword?” Rainbow asked and as Sally explained, Rainbow groaned. “Why did I have to ask, two egghead was bad enough, now there’s three!”

“If ya gonna ask, then just listen.” Applejack told the cyan pegasus.

All of a sudden, a bunch of small animals, including Angel Bunny and the same flicky from before quickly ran up to Fluttershy as they whimpered and had visible bruises on their bodies.

“What’s happening over there?” Sally asked

“I can talk to animals since it’s my special talent.” Fluttershy told Sally, then turned to the small animals and asked, “What happened to you guys?”

Angel Bunny pointed at the direction they ran and it led back to Ponyville. The heroes followed the small animals back to Ponyville and after a while, they saw a orange marsupial wearing short jeans, sneakers, and fingerless gloves spinning with a lizard in his hand.

“Hey you!” Rainbow shouted as the bandicoot stopped spinning and looked at the heroes with a goofy look on his face.

“What do you think you’re doing to these poor little animals?” Fluttershy asked as it was complete silence and shortly after, the bandicoot kicked the lizard out of the way, make Fluttershy whimper.

“Stop!” Sonic yelled as his jumped at the bandicoot, but he did a spin attack, knocking back Sonic back to the others.

“Okay, let get this guys all at once!” Rainbow shouted as the others got into fighting position, except Rarity and Fluttershy, but Sonic stopped them from getting involved. “What the hay are you doing Sonic?”

“I’ll handle this guy while the rest of you take the animals somewhere safe.” Sonic said as the other took the animals away from the fight. Sonic looked back at the marsupial and said, “Alright you, you’re gonna pay for that!”

Sonic starts by running up to the bandicoot and leg sweep him and kicked him away to the ground, but the bandicoot got up and bellyflopped the ground, causing the blue hedgehog to lost his balance and was hit by a slide.

“I’ll do admit you’re pretty strong, but I’m not going down so easily!” Sonic said as he ran around the bandicoot, making him dizzy and it gave Sonic an chance to spindash the bandicoot and Sonic rolled in the bandicoot away. “Do you know who I am.” Sonic said as he dusted off his hands.

As Sonic wasn’t looking, the bandicoot sneaked up to the blue hedgehog and grabbed his hand and spinned Sonic for a few seconds and threw him on the ground. Sonic got up, but was punched in the face. Sonic saw the bandicoot fist and block it, then backflip him to a box and inside it was a bunch of wumpa fruits as it gave the bandicoot an idea. The bandicoot took out a bazooka and put the fruits inside it and shot it at Sonic at high speeds, blowing him back into a hole and Sonic jumped out of it. The others came back and watched the fight from a distance, but what they didn’t expect was the Diamond Dogs sneaking up behind them and snatching away Amy, Fluttershy, Rarity, Tails, and Spike away into the hole.

“Hey Sonic! We have a bigger problem!” Twilight called as the blue hedgehog and bandicoot stopped fighting and looked at the lavender alicorn.

Sonic ran up to the other and asked, “What is it? I was just about to beat that guy.”

“You can’t hog all the action Sonic!” Rainbow said, then pointed at the hole the Diamond Dogs jumped into. “Rarity, Fluttershy, Spike, Tails, and Amy were taken by the Diamond Dogs and they went underground!”

“Then we can’t waste anymore time everypony! We have to save em’!” Applejack said as the heroes jumped and slide on the ground as the bandicoot looked from above and looked around and found a flat rock and rode on top of it, following the heroes.

As the heroes chased the Diamond Dogs, they made sharp turns, dodging sharp diamonds, and made tight jump. After a while, the heroes made it to the end and found Rarity, Spike, Fluttershy, Tails, Amy, and a unknown girl tied up on top of the ceiling as the Diamond Dogs were looking at the heroes.

“Welcome ponies and strange creatures.” The Diamond Dog leader said. “My name is Rover, and this is Fido and Spot. We’re the Diamond Dogs!” Rover said.

“Why are you doing capturing our friends!” Knuckles demanded

Spot laughed really hard and answered, “Because that pretty pony tricked us and the others, well the more the merrier.”

“I hate doing this, but we’ll fight the three of you for our friends!” Twilight said as everyone gasped in shock.

“Are ya’ sure about this Twilight? Those Diamond Dogs look pretty tough lookin’?” Applejack asked Twilight, who was super nervous.

“You should listen to your friends because we learned from our mistakes and now, it ain’t gonna be easy!” Fido said as he cracked his fist.

“Are you sure cause we’re gonna save our friends from the likes of you!” Sonic shouted back at the Diamond Dogs.

“Let’s make this a bit more fair.” Spot smirked as he snapped his fingers when suddenly, a four turtles jumped from the ceiling wearing red, black, yellow, and green ninja outfit and emerged from the shadows.

“You loser are gonna get punked by the Super Cool and Rad. Koopa Bros.!” The four ninjas announced themselves at the same time as a shine appeared when they posed.

“I’m Red!” The red ninja Koopa said

“Yellow!” The yellow ninja Koopa said

“Black!” The black ninja Koopa said

“And Green!” The green ninja Koopa said

It was awkward silence for a few seconds until Rainbow laughed hard, “That is your backup?” Rainbow laughed even harder and so did her friends, even the girl as well. Unfortunately, Rainbow Dash didn’t notice that Green jump kick her to the ground.

Applejack and Red clashes their attacks with each other as booming sound were made and Applejack dodged Red’s fist and kicked him so hard, that she knocked him back to Rover. While Sonic and Knuckles helped Rainbow against Fido and Black in the fight, Twilight was against Spot, Yellow and Green as the lavender alicorn did well in her own, she was grabbed from behind by Spot and both Yellow and Green threw her at the top of the ceiling, then slammed her to the ground. Rainbow, Sonic, and Knuckles looked at the Twilight, but got smacked by Fido into a wall. Sonic and Knuckles got up and as the hold hands doing a double spindash in a mixture of red and blue, Rainbow kicked them towards Black and Fido as it did massive damage to them and as Rainbow continued, Rover scratch the cyan pegasus on the back and was hit by Sonic and Knuckles since she couldn’t dodge. Rainbow, Sonic, and Knuckles were badly injured, but still on their feet. Sally blocked Rover’s flurry of swipes and used her grappling hook to swing the Diamond Dog lead to Red. Sally and Applejack were side by side as they fought off both Red and Rover and Applejack caught Red in the air and slammed him to the ground as he bounced up, then was kicked away by Sally. Red hid inside his shell and spinned towards Rover, who pulled a purple crystal from the wall and knocked back Red like a baseball at Applejack and Sally, blowing them back with tremendous strength. Twilight was on her hooves and shot magic at the Spot, Yellow, and Green and used her magic to grab Yellow as he was spinning at threw him at Spot and Green, but Twilight was really tired and wasn’t able to use her magic with more magic strength as she was beside her friends.

“Let’s end this really snappy!” Spot said as he pulled out a Chaos Emerald to the other shock. They were about to use the Emerald’s power and took out the heroes in just one hit.

“You weren’t kidding when you said they were tough, but it wasn’t enough to beat us.” Red said as the Diamond Dogs and Koopa Bros. looked at the unconscious heroes as the others looked in shock to see them lose to a fight they tired to free them.

“Now you know what that means?” Rover taunted the other hanging from the ceiling. “You and your little friends with have to dig up gems forever!” However, they were surrounded by a bunch of red TNT boxes and a green TNT boxes saying “Nitro” and before they could react, the boxes exploded, knocking them out, leaving the red Chaos Emerald unharmed and the one who was responsible for it was the orange bandicoot Sonic fought before.

“Woohoo! That my brother right there!” the girl cheered as the other looked confused.

“How is that your brother after what he did!” Rarity shouted.

“That’s just Crash for ya’, he might not look much, but he sure is tough!” the girls said to the others. The bandicoot named Crash shot fruits at the ropes one by one as he caught Rarity, Spike, and his sister while Tails and Fluttershy slowly carried Amy down to the ground. “Oh I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Coco Bandicoot and this is my older brother, Crash Bandicoot.” the girl named Coco said as Crash did his signature dance.

Once they reached the ground, Fluttershy yelled in a soft voice, “You should be ashamed of yourself Crash! Hurting small woodland creatures for what reason!”

“Whoa now! What are you talking about you adorable pegasus.” Coco said as he baby talked Fluttershy, who was uncomfortable about it.

“Well your older brother was hurting the animals and kicked those slimy lizards without a care in Equestria!” Rarity said as both the Bandicoots gave her confused looks.

“We’ll explain it once we get out here with our friends.” Tails said as the other picked up their unconscious friends while Coco pulled out a warp pad from her pocket as she put it down on the ground and looked at Crash.

“Look Crash, I know the animals from our world are evil, but you shouldn’t be hurting other animals from another world remember?” Coco told Crash, who rubbed the back of his head as he was ashamed of himself.

Once the warp pad was ready, the heroes jumped onto it and in just a few seconds in, they were already back to surface and after the pad closed, Coco picked it up and put it back in her pocket. A few minutes later after Fluttershy and Amy was healing their friends, they woke up with bandages and saw Crash, Coco, and their friends in front of them.

“Oh you want more do you!” Rainbow yelled at Crash, but he got on his knees and gave them a wumpa fruit as a apology gift, the heroes hesitated for a bit, but they took a bite out of it and ate the whole fruit.

“Wow, this is actually pretty good.” Sally said as they got up from laying down. “So who are you two?”

“Well my name is Coco Bandicoot and this is my older brother, Crash.” Coco said as Crash waved at them with a big goofy smile on his face.

“As the Element of Honesty, how do we know if we can trust ya’?” Applejack asked the two Bandicoots.

“My big bro Crash just helped you guys from those baddies down there.” Coco said as she pointed at the hole, then said, “Plus, we found this before we left, is it important?” Coco said as she pulls out the red emerald from her pocket and showed it to Twilight and the others.

“It is!” Knuckles said as he grabbed the Chaos Emerald from Coco. “How did you get this anyway?”

“Crash used some TNT boxes and they blew up in front of the Diamond Dogs and the weird Ninja Koopa, turtles whatever and it was like!” Spike said as made explosions sounds.

Sonic got up and walked to Crash and said, “I appreciate the help back their.” Sonic put his fist out and waited for Crash to do same and then they fist bumped each other.

“And since the two of you are really nice for saving us, it would be nice if the two of you can join us on our adventure to find the Chaos Emeralds and the Elements of Harmony?” Twilight asked the Bandicoot siblings and the two agreed to join.

“And along the way, we’ll need to find these crystals from a certain somebody.” Coco said as Crash showed them the purple crystal he got from Rover.

“Of course!” Tails said as they walked away from the the Diamond Dogs mining area and towards a beach.

Chapter 7: Where are we?

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Chapter 5: Pinkie and the Crystal Shards Pt. 1

Meanwhile in space, there’s a heart shape planet named Ripple Star and on that planet little fairies live in peace and harmony when suddenly, the sky got dark and formed all over the planet.

“Oh no! It’s Dark Matter!” the little fairy with pink hair, a small red dress and a red ribbon in her hair said. “I got to tell the Fairy Queen about this!”

As the fairy flew inside the castle, the fairy queen was panicked because of the disaster that is about to happen.

“Oh dear! Oh dear! Oh dear!” The fairy queen repeat until Ribbon flew in. “Ribbon! You have to take this sacred crystal with you away from the Dark Matter!”

“Yes ma’am!” the fairy named Ribbon said as she hold on the crystal and she flew away from Ripple Star, but 3 shadow creatures chased her as Ripple Star was now trapped in darkness.

As Ribbon flew away from the 3 dark matter clones, she managed to slow down one of them, but it wasn’t enough to stop them as one by one, they hit the crystal and before they could hit it again, Pinkie accidentally hit the Sacred Crystal as the two fell on a star planet. The 3 dark matter clones looked at the two girls and they flew back to Ripple Star.

Meanwhile on the star planet, a cute round puffball was enjoying the shooting star and when he got up, a voice yelling, “Incoming!” And before he could react, Pinkie and Ribbon crashed landed on the puffball.

“Owchie...” Pinkie got up as she rubbed her head and as she got up, she looked at the puffball and said, “Sorry about that um...Where am I?” Pinkie asked as she shook the puffball and asked again, “Do you know where I am?”

The puffball said, “Poyo.” As he introduced himself.

“Oh so your name is Kirby and you look some cute!” Pinkie gushed as she hugged the puffball named Kirby as he was laughing. When Pinkie put him down, Kirby pointed at Ribbon and he shook her a bit and she regained consciousness.

When Ribbon woke up, she started to panick. “OH NO! I can’t believe the Sacred Crystal shattered everywhere! What am I going to do now!” When Ribbon looked behind her, she saw Kirby and Pinkie.

“Hi! My name is Pinkie Pie and this is Kirby. Do you need us to help you with something ?” Pinkie asked the fairy.

“No ma’am, it’s my responsibility to find remaining crystal by myself.” Ribbon answered.

“Come on, don’t act like this is some sort of revenge story you having...” Pinkie said as she examined Ribbon and said, “...Ribbon is it?”

“H-How do you kn-know my name?!” Ribbon questioned Pinkie in fear

“Hm, just a hunch.” Pinkie squee.

“Well like I said, it my responsibility and I can just make friends with complete and random strangers!” Ribbon said as she looked at the night sky when two crystal landed in front of Kirby and Pinkie and they picked them up and walked towards Ribbon.

“Are you talking about these crystals?” Pinkie asked as the three crystals began floating and they merged into one. “Yay! Pretty lights!” Pinkie shouted.

“I guess I can trust you...what are your names anyway?” Ribbon asked the two.

“Like I said before, my name is Pinkie Pie and this little fella is named Kirby.

“Hi.” Kirby said with a smile that caused Pinkie to hug him much tighter.

“Okay Pinkie, you can let go of him now.” Ribbon giggled as Pinkie let go of him.

“So since we’re friends now, let’s go find this shiny crystal that shattered everywhere.” Pinkie smiled as the ran off(or in Pinkie case, bouncing and Ribbon for flying) to the distance.

As the sun began to rise, Pinkie took out a telescope from her hair and looked from a distance was a small shed. “Alright new friends I made in just a few minutes. Our main target are those crystals Ribbon’s looking for and we’re collecting every...single...one.” Pinkie said a dramatic tone making Kirby and Ribbon giggle.

“I love your playfulness Pinkie, it’s like it some kind of game of some sort.” Ribbon told Pinkie.

“Well I just love being me and I’m the Element of Laughter.” Pinkie said, making the two confused. “So back on my home called Equestria, me and 5 other ponies solve friendship problems and use the Elements of Harmony to bring back harmony and since some wacky happened, my friends and I are on a super huge adventure to get them back!” Pinkie said in one go.

“So you friends with ponies? That’s so cute!” Ribbon gushed.

“I could tell you two the rest, but we can’t just stand here doing nothing, now let’s go save the world!” Pinkie said as she skipped off as Kirby and Ribbon followed her.

As they continued their adventure, the three of them stopped when a armless fireball with feet ran back and forth. Pinkie began thinking as a lightbulb appeared above her head and then it lit up when she found the answer.

“What is it Pinkie?” Ribbon asked the pink pony

“Hey Kirby, can you eat that fireball over there?” Pinkie asked as Kirby did what he was asked while Ribbon looked dumbfounded.

“Pinkie, that doesn’t sound safe for Kir—“ Ribbon stopped herself when Kirby inhaled the fireball perfectly fine while fire was sitting on top of his head. “Oh my goodness! Are you okay Kirby?” Ribbon asked Kirby, who nodded yes.

Pinkie opened Kirby’s mouth and pulled out a red diamond and threw it at a one- eyed spear user and it became a red and orange diamond. Pinkie grabbed it and put in Kirby and he was now holding a fire sword and wore a red cap that looked familiar. Kirby excitedly swing his new sword around as Pinkie and Ribbon watched him.

“I think I might just faint from how cute he is.” Pinkie said as a single tear of joy ran across her face.

“He’s really cute and...wait, we can’t stand her doing nothing again, we have to hurry Pinkie.” Ribbon said as Pinkie snapped back to reality.

“Oh sorry Ribbon.” Pinkie apologized and whistled to the pink puffball. “Come on Kirby! We have to get a move on.” Pinkie called Kirby as he followed the two as they continued moving forward and saw one of the shattered crystals, floating in plain sight and Ribbon flew up to the crystal and picked it up, then flew back to her friends.

“Great! Four down, I don’t know how many left to go.” Ribbon said as they continued their journey and as they were about inside the shed, a giant Timberwolf appeared right in front of them, scaring Ribbon as she hid behind Pinkie. Kirby walked up to the Timberwolf and with one swing with the fire sword, the Timberwolf was defeated in a matter of seconds. “You’re so brave Kirby!” Ribbon cheered as she hugged Kirby, but then took a look at the Timberwolf and felt bad for it.

“Hmmmm...I think I know just to fix it.” Pinkie said as she whispered to Kirby and after their little conversations, Kirby pulled out a heart from his body and threw it at the Timberwolf and not only did it restored it back to health, but it became friendly and licked Kirby on the face as he was giggling.

“You’re so adorable Trunk, you should stay here with your other friends little buddy.” Ribbon told the Timberwolf named Trunk as she was rubbing its head and scratched its ears as Trunk was enjoying it. Trunk sat down and waved to its owner as they walked off to find more crystals.

As they continued, they dodged creatures like Bronto Burts, Sir Cutters, and cannons sitting on top of star blocks. After that, the crystal began to glow and in the small pond was a black object sitting in the water and Pinkie looked around in a old school detective out and quickly figured it out.

“Okay Kirby, so you have to get rid of your fire sword and take that bomb from him.” Pinkie whispered to Kirby and as he threw away his copy ability, he inhaled Poppy Jr. and he was know wearing a firework hat and walked on top of the black object and placed it on top of it and then exploded and it revealed one of the crystals and Kirby picked it up and gave it to Ribbon.

So they continued forward and saw a picnic set at the end. At the end was one of Kirby friends, Bandana Waddle Dee and unlike most Waddle Dees, Bandana Dee wields both a parasol and a spear and wore a blue bandana. As he was getting his picnic set, he saw one of the shattered crystals and picked it up and before he could walk back to his little picnic, one of the dark matter clones attacked Bandana Dee in the ground.

“So your friend is a alicorn princess?” Ribbon asked Pinkie

“Pretty much yeah.” Pinkie answered and spotted Bandana Dee as Kirby ran up to him, trying to wake him up, but to his surprise, his friends was now “Bandana Doo.”

“Watch out Kirby, his seems to have one eye instead of two? There’s something wrong with him?” Pinkie said as she covered Kirby and Ribbon behind her.

The Bandana Doo started thrusting his spear and Pinkie, Kirby, and Ribbon moved out of the way when Bandana Doo spear began giving him more range with the beam that appeared from the end of his spear. Kirby inhaled the beam and created beam bombs and when he threw the bomb behind Bandana Doo, the blast didn’t hit him, the the beam that popped out of it did, causing him to fall forward.

When Bandana Doo got up, in front of him was Pinkie’s party cannon and a confetti ball hit Bandana Doo and the dark matter spirit immediately left Bandana Dee’s body and flew away in the sky.

“So that’s why he was acting weird. It that troublemaker who saw him with the crystal and took over his body!” Ribbon said as she picked up the crystal.

Shortly after, Bandana Dee woke up and said with squeaks, “What happened? First I was setting up a picnic and this dark ball knocked me out?” Bandana Dee looked around and saw Kirby, Ribbon, and Pinkie around him. “Hi Kirby!” Bandana Dee said as two hugged each other. “So who are these two? Your new friends?”

“You bet! My name is Pinkie Pie and I love parties and everything!” Pinkie answered to Bandana Dee.

“And my name is Ribbon.” Ribbon introduced herself. “I wish could talk more, but we’re kinda in a hurry.” Ribbon said as she followed Kirby and Pinkie, leaving Bandana Dee by himself, but he follows them as the brave Waddle Dee tag along as they walked forward and into a forest surrounded by orange-red leaves.

The team made their way through spiky Gordos, Bouncies, Bumbers, and a few more as they were easily defeated by the team. After that, they made their way inside a tall maple tree. While Kirby hold his breath and started floating towards the top while Ribbon flew beside him, Pinkie and Bandana Dee had to fight their way to the top.

“That cannon is really strong for something that shoots confetti.” Bandana Dee told Pinkie

“Well it’s my party cannon and as the name says, it’s a cannon I use for parties with my friends back at home.” Pinkie said

“Wait? You aren’t from here?” Bandana Dee asked.

“I’m not.” Pinkie answered, “My friends and I are on this super cool adventure to find these important things called the Elements of Harmony.”

“Um?” Waddle Dee said.

“Long-story short, we use them to bring peace and harmony all around Equestria, a place where there different kinds of ponies like earth ponies, unicorns, and pegasi!” Pinkie shortly explained as they reached the top and walked out the tree and found a conveyor thing with a long on top of it.

Pinkie thought for a few seconds until a lightbulb appeared from the head as she jumped on top of the log. As Kirby, Bandana Dee, and Ribbon got onto the conveyor, Pinkie rolled in a ball and she rolled around on it as the conveyor moved over a pit and it to its destination. As Kirby, Bandana Dee, and Ribbon got off, Pinkie crashed into them and they fell down and at the bottom was a giant Bouncer bouncing in front of them, but Kirby took it out pretty easily and not only did it left a crystal upon leaving, but a door opened to an exit and the group left out the door to leave the forest.

“Okay, just a pinch of purple, then...” a young female artist named Adeleine said, but she stop painting when a crystal landed right behind her, when she picked it up however, she didn’t notice that a dark matter clone hid inside the picture and when Adeleine turned back to continued painting, she was tacked by said dark matter clone as it takes over her body. As the group continued to walk, Kirby stopped, then was bumped by Bandana Dee and Pinkie, causing him to fall forwards in front of Adeleine as her eyes were closed.

“What there! Are you sleepwalking or something?” Pinkie asked as she waved her hoof across the painter’s face, then she jumped by Adeleine’s sudden attack using her brush. “Well somepony looks really dangerous.” Pinkie said as the others, including the evil Adeleine confused.

“Somepony?” Bandana Dee asked

“Okay from my planet called Equestria and there we say everypony instead of everyone for some unknown reason and then...” Pinkie continued explaining as evil Adeleine got so annoyed that she tried to hit her head on, but was quickly defeated when Pinkie accidentally hit her with her hind legs. The dark matter clones left towards a castle, leaving behind a crystal for Ribbon to pick up.

“That really hurts...” Adeleine said as she rubbed her head.

“Sorry about, I didn’t notice that you were controlled by evil force and you were trying to attack me while I talking to my new best friends.” Pinkie shortly explained.

“I’m sorry but, what?” Adeleine asked

“It’s a long story but that thing is heading towards King Dedede castle!” Bandana Dee pointed at the large castle at the distance as he runs towards the castle, giving chase to the dark matter clone.

“I know you guys are in Are hurry, but can I join?” Adeleine asked the group.

Kirby nodded and Adeleine and the other followed Bandana Dee, who was chasing the dark matter clone inside the large castle.

The group followed Bandana Dee and were held back by some of the guard, stand up on a moving platform, and met two Sir Kibble and after Kirby inhaled them both, his cutter hat was twice as big and more sharper and made it to the outer walls of the castle of the castle and they dodge multiple obstacles and saw a entrance to back inside, but it was a perfect landing as they fell on the checker-board floor, but Kirby landed in the water and right next to him was one of the crystals as Ribbon picked it up and the others helped Kirby from getting stuck and they carried along and saw a long stairway towards the top and Pinkie pulled out her party cannon, grabbed her friends, aimed towards the door, and blasted off. They did made as Adeleine used her brush to grab the crystal and made to the top and found Bandana Dee running towards a big penguin with a royal outfit.

“King Dedede! Are you alright sir?” Bandana Dee asked the penguin named King Dedede

“I’m alright my second in command loyal guard.” King Dedede answered as he pulled out a crystal. “And I found this shiny new crystal lying around.”

Shortly after, Kirby run up to Dedede, asking for the crystal, but since the two are friendly to each other, King Dedede refuse to give Kirby crystal as the others try to warn them about the dark matter clone as it came crashing down between them a flew inside the fat king’s body. Pinkie pulled out a stick and poked him with it and after a few pokes, King Dedede suddenly got up and squished her with his hammer like a pancake.

“Do worry...I’m...okay...” a injured Pinkie said as she quickly returned back to full health.

King Dedede swing his hammer at Kirby, who successfully dodged it, then the evil king hit his hammer on the ground, shaking it, leaving Kirby wide open to be attacked and he was hit by a thrown hammer and got hit again when it came back like a boomerang. Kirby got up and threw two boomerang at the penguin at rapid succession, causing him to fall down. But it wasn’t over because all of a sudden, King Dedede began floating and his stomach grew sharp teeth and bit at the group and the the dark matter clone’s eye shot black spheres at them. Adeleine threw some paint at the dark matter clone when it eye was opened, causing it to hide back inside, letting Kirby to knock out the controlled Dedede as one of the crystal dropped from him. Bandana Dee was helping King Dedede up, Kirby, Pinkie, Adeleine and Ribbon jumped from the castle and followed the glowing, Bandana Dee turned to the King and looked at him.

“Wha-me! I don’t wanna team up with that pink puffball Kirby!” King Dedede turned his back away from Bandana Dee.

Bandana Dee jumped, but turned back to look at King Dedede before he left. Dedede didn’t want to feel left out so he begrudgingly join the team as they made it towards a large sentient tree named Wispy Woods and three small versions of him as moving stumps.

“Is that a tree and his children?” Pinkie asked as the others looked confused.

“But why is the crystal glowing towards him of all places?” Ribbon questioned

“Well he is mean tree so I’m guessing it because of that dark matter blob thing.” Bandana Dee theorized.

“Then let clobber that tree!” King Dedede shouted as he smack one of the sprout towards Wispy, hurting the tree in the process.

“That was amazing sit!” Bandana Dee said to Dedede as the penguin posed in style as the others looked dumbfounded by it. Wispy Woods shook his head, causing apples to fall and roll towards the group, they dodged it barely and was able to defeat the spouts. Wispy face was angry,
he turned red and started chasing them as sharp spikes start to pop up from the ground.

“Oh, we really made him mad.” Pinkie said

“Wispy isn’t this difficult! What wrong with him?” Adeleine questioned.

“I’m going for the hit!” Dedede said as he swinged his hammer, but Wispy inhaled him and spit him out to the heroes, knocking them to the ground as Wispy roared at them.

As the heroes got into fighting position, Ribbon flashback to when Kirby pulled a heart out of his body and threw it at Trunk, making him friendly, so Ribbon reached inside Kirby’s body, pulled out a pink heart and threw it at Wispy, turning him back to normal and his children were also friendly.

“So what is the point of fightin’ if throwing some heart makes them friendly?” King Dedede asked.

“Well we did hurt him and his children, but we could have asked for the crystal.” Pinkie said as the crystal fell inside her hair as she reached inside and gave it to Ribbon. “Speaking of which.”

“We after all of that, can we eat right now?” Bandana Dee asked as both him and Kirby looked at Pinkie and then the group had a small picnic around Wispy Woods and his children as they took a photo with each other.

To be continued...

Author's Note

This story took me so long to do and I love Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, it was my first ever Kirby game and I really love to do this, but I also made this more about the journey because no one talks in the game and giving Adeleine, King Dedede, Bandana Dee and Ribbon wasn’t easy, but I can get through it.

Plus this was something I was at and there was a mlp fanfic with Pinkie and Kirby in Kirby’s Adventure so that’s was a weird coincidence I think.
