Later that evening.

The three heroes and Trixie met at the meeting-place at the appropriate time.

Spoiler and Batgirl were wearing their costumes, Jubilee didn't have costume per say.

Whereas Trixie was wearing her outfit from her band, The Illusions.

The last time Trixie had worn the outfit was when her band was a part of the Battle of Bands so the outfit gotten a little small, but it still fit her.

"I don't think that does a good job concealing your identity," Jubilee commented.

"Speak for yourself," Trixie replied, Jubilee's costume was literally just the clothes she worn all the time.

Batgirl dug into her utility belt and produced a domino mask and handed it to Trixie.

"Well," Trixie sighed, putting the mask on, "it's better than nothing."

"Anyway," Spoiler said, "we should get moving, who knows what Superior Octopus's plans are for the Nth Metal.

"Agreed," Batgirl and Jubilee nodded.

Without another word, the four headed for the outskirts of Canterlot City.

Without the Mare-Do-Well suit, Trixie found it hard to traverse the rooftops.


Elsewhere.

"Careful with that Nth Metal, you blistering buffoon!" Superior Octopus ordered, as he supervised his operation at the decommissioned steel mill.

His newest minion, Mark Raxton a.k.a. Molten Man grumbled and complied, placing the Nth Metal in one of the mill's still intact vats.

Once that was done, he placed his hands on the metal cube, which started to bubble and melt filling the vat.

"Excellent," Superior Octopus said, as he gazed over the molten metal.

He detached his tentacles from his back and placed them in the foundry underneath vat of molten metal.

"Soon," Superior Octopus gloated, "I will become the one immortal being and the most powerful scientific mind in the universe!"

As the villain revelled in his delusional fantasy, Trixie, Spoiler, Jubilee and Batgirl entered the building, quietly as possible, from the roof.

"So," Jubilee whispered, "what's the plan?"

"Well," Trixie replied, "we have to stop him before Superior Octopus does....whatever he's going to do with that Nth Metal."

"And then what?" Spoiler added.

"I don't know," Trixie answered, with a weak smile, "I'm just making this up as I go."

"Are you serious?" Batgirl interrupted, "you didn't even have a plan for when we got to this point?!"

Even though, Batgirl's face was covered by her mask, Trixie could feel the annoyance and bewilderment radiating off of her.

Trixie realised the girls were right to doubt her, she wasn't one for coming up with a plans, she was a performer, she made things up on the fly and was good at rolling with whatever audience she was performing in front of.

"Why do you think I ask for your help?" she said, finally.

The three girls exchanged glances, they had come this far, there was no turning back now.

"Well, plan or no plan," Jubilee stated, "I'm with you until the end."

"Thanks," Trixie smiled, "you're a good magicians assistance and a good friend."

"You know," Batgirl said, "it took a lot of honesty and courage to admit you didn't have a plan, but it must have been even harder asking me and Spoiler for help."

"But me and Batgirl are with you too," Spoiler finished, "we've got your back."

"Thank you," Trixie acknowledged, "all of you."

As Trixie went in for a hug with her friends, she accidentally brushed past some old rusty chains, causing then to rattle and make noise.

"What was that?" Molten man asked,

"It's nothing," Superior Octopus replied, "it's probably a rat or the old iron work, this whole place is falling apart."

"That was close," Spoiler said, "lucky he didn't think that anyone would follow him to this old place."

"We should hurry up, we need to find and catch Superior Octopus and the Nth Metal," Batgirl nodded, "who knows how long this building is going to last."

"Batgirl's right," Jubilee agreed, "we need to come up with some kind of a plan and avoid making any more noise or we'll give ourselves away."

The girls all nodded and began venturing deep into the depths of the old steel mill, Jubilee using her powers to light the way through the darker areas.

After a few hours, they reached some kind of observation deck overlooking the foundry where Superior Octopus and Molten Man were working.

"It won't be long now," Superior Octopus said, "the Nth metal will be ready for bonding."

The girls then noticed the vat above the foundry was filled with bubbling molten metal, Nth Metal.

"Soon," Superior Octopus continued, "I will be indestructible and immortal...and no one will stop me."
