Chapter 1: The Cutie Map

Ren's POV

It's been three weeks since Twilight gained her Castle of Friendship and since Sarah became the Queen of Harmony. Twilight had moved into her new castle along with Spike. The castle was absolutely gorgeous in the inside. It had many, many rooms like the Princesses palace.

Speaking of which we were entering the throne room now, “Let’s go through this one more time.” Twilight began as she rubbed her hoof under her chin causing Rainbow Dash to groan to aggravation as apparently Twilight has talked about this multiple times now.

“We've been over it like a million times, Twilight! We unlock the chest, defeated Tirek and Sarah defeated Void and you got this sweet castle! End of story!” Rainbow Dash quickly told Twilight of what had just happened in a quickly summed up fashion.

“Yeah, bookworm, there’s not much to it.” Jack said as he sat on his throne.

“Yes, but why?” Twilight acknowledged but can’t help but question why she isn’t getting all of this so sudden after turning herself around.

“We don’t know why. I said.

“I dunno, sugarcube. Maybe it's just your new house and there ain't nothin' more to it than that.” Applejack answered as she moved to sit in her chair. As soon as she did the cutie mark on her chair glowed.

The others and I sat in their thrones and we our cutie marks started to glow as well. Hmm... wonder what's going on with the chairs. Probably nothing.

“I must say, speaking strictly on aesthetics, there really doesn't need to be more to it. It's all simply divine!” Rarity added as she sat down on her chair causing the cutie mark on her chair to glow too while saying all that’s important is that the Twilight they all know and loved is back.

“I agree with Twilight. And Rarity. And Applejack. And Rainbow Dash. And Pinkie Pie.” Fluttershy chimed in as she sat down on her chair with her cutie mark on her chair glowing too. “Oh, and probably Spike.” Fluttershy added as if she almost forgot to include as she turned to him who is still sleeping and snoring on his chair.

“As princess, I’ve been chosen to spread the magic of friendship across Equestria and Sarah has been chosen to spread harmony across Equestria as well as the Queen.” Twilight continued to speak her mind as she paces around the center of the room.

"Twilight, stop worrying about it." Sarah said to her

"But Sarah, the Tree, aka your surrogate mother, obviously sees you as some kind of student to it, so why would it want us to sit in a castle in Ponyville? It doesn't make any sense.” She concluded as she sat down on her chair causing her cutie mark to glow along with the mark on her chair.

Everypony takes notice when the cutie marks on the chair glow as the beams of light they produced all shined onto the star in the center of the room causing crystal rocks to form as a crystal table starts to appear from the center of the room causing Spike to awaken from hearing this who then looks surprised at the sight that had just formed in the middle of the room.

“Is that new? I like it.” Spike commented just as surprised as everypony in the room.

“HOLY HELL!” I yelled.

“The chairs made a friggin map!” Jack added in shock.

It’s beautiful..” Kaede said.

Nicole and Rantaro looked at the map with their calm expressions.

Spike walked on the table and looked around it as what they are seeing is a map of all of Equestria. “This is incredible! It's got all of Equestria!” Spike commented in amazement.

“Hi, Mom and Dad!” Pinkie happily commented as she looked at her parent’s rock farm house.

Spike at that moment would end up stepping on the model house causing Pinkie’s eyes to water up as if she thought her parents were killed.

Suddenly, our cutie marks and the Mane Six’s cutie marks on their flanks and they glow as projected images of them circling around Twilight’s cutie mark and they hovered above the map from where Ponyville is to some town near the mountains.

Twilight, wanting a better look, used her magic to drag Spike off the table so she can examine this.

“But if this is Ponyville, why are our cutie marks over there?” Fluttershy commented wondering what this meant.

“I don't know.” Twilight honestly answered. “But it seems like the map wants us to find out. The Tree, Sarah, this castle, and now the map. How can we not follow it?” She questioned her friends.

“We must investigate that unmarked area.” I suggested.

“Y'know what?” Rainbow Dash flew in close examining some places on the map. “There's a ton of room for dangerous adventure along that route. Count me in!” She quickly put her hoof forward to join Twilight on this trip.

“Me too!” Jack exclaimed, rubbing his gut.

“Aw, shoot, I reckon you're right.” Applejack responded in agreement.

“Fine, I’ll come along to for protection.” Mason added.

“Well, I was planning on organizing my baking sheets, but okay!” Pinkie answered sounding reluctant at first before happily agreeing too.

“Very well.” Rarity reluctantly agreed too with a smile as she and Pinkie turn to Fluttershy expecting her answer wanting her to come along to with Rainbow Dash joining them as well.

“Um, maybe I'll just stay here with Spike.” Fluttershy nervously responded not wanting to come.

“Awesome!” Spike happily responded as he wore a drinking hat and a foam finger. “Me and Big Mac have a huge weekend ahead of us talkin' hoofball, and... and trading hoofball cards, and arguing about hoofball stats...”

Hearing all this causing Fluttershy to make weirded out expressions as she sees is signing herself up for activates that only guy and stallions would like.

“O-o-on second thought, m-m-maybe I'd better go with them. In case they need me.” Fluttershy quickly answered to show that she has changed her mind as she turns to Rainbow Dash who smiles in response to her answer.

“Eh, seems like a waste of time to me.” Rantaro stated, but Sarah hovered a bag of coins in front of him which he happily took. “Nevermind!” Nicole just sighed at his behavior.

Soon, we were all on our way to the unmarked area. We all exited the train as it backs away to depart from the dead end stop as Twilight looks the map she made herself for a moment before rolling it up and walking ahead in the direction of the nearby town with us right behind her. We crossed a wooden bridge and then reached our destination, a small village down below the mountains.

“That's it! That's the place on the map!” Twilight pointed out as Rarity fumbled with the dust in her hair.

“Looks like a small village.” I stated, seeing how small the village looked.

“Right. Let's get down there and find the spa.” Rarity spoke prepared to head on down before being stopped by Twilight who magically teleports in front of her.

“Wait.” Twilight stopped Rarity in her tracks with a hoof on her chest. “We don't know why the map sent us here. We shouldn't just walk right in. It could be dangerous.”

“Yes!” Rainbow Dash exclaimed in excitement at the mention of danger she thrives of engaging in it.

“Stay behind me, everypony! I'm on it!” Pinkie spoke as she stood on her rear hoof while placing her front hoofs in front of Twilight and Rarity with a serious expression.

“Careful, Pinkie!” Applejack called out to Pinkie as she rolled down the mountain and ducked to a nearby rock as she peeks from the corner who motions the others to follow her lead as she stealthily makes her way to town by ducking under nearby rocks while the others walk up behind her as she scoots herself under a huge rock before she and the others peeked at the village as they now got a closer look.

“This is where the map sent us? It looks like the most boring place in Equestria.” Rainbow Dash commented as they watch every pony chatting and walking around.

“It's just an ordinary village full of ordinary pony folk.” Applejack voiced her thoughts.

“It could certainly use a few more architectural flourishes. Or any architectural flourishes.” Rarity commented seeing that the village could use some more fashionable taste of decoration.

“I think it's lovely.” Fluttershy responded seeing there is no problem with what she is seeing.

“I don't like it. I don't like it one bit. I know smiles. And those smiles? They're just not right.” Pinkie suspiciously commented at the sight of the continuously smiling ponies.

“I agree.” Twilight shared the same suspicion as she eyed the marks on everypony’s flanks. “Look at the cutie marks.” She pointed out that everypony had equal signs on their flanks.

“Okay, that's weird.” Rainbow Dash commented in agreement with Twilight.

“Equal sign cutie marks?” Kaede said with confusion.

“An entire village with the same cutie mark? How can that be?” Twilight questioned the very possibility of that.

“I bet there's some sort of horrific monster behind it.” Rainbow Dash suggested as she watched the village from afar.

“What makes you say that?” Twilight asked.

“'Cause fighting a horrific monster would be super-awesome!” Rainbow Dash excitedly dreamed of.

“I reckon we just ought to head into town and talk to some locals, find out what's goin' on.” Applejack suggested.

“Great idea, AJ. Let's go!” Rainbow Dash said and raced off.

Pinkie Pie was still frowning. “Those smiles are bad news.”

We started walking into the strange village. Boy, this just gives me bad memories when my home country was part of the USSR.

All of the ponies still keep up their friendly smiles as they approach us.

“Welcome.” A gray earth stallion with brown eyes greeted.

“Welcome.” A female Pegasus mother with two fillies by her side greeted.

“Welcome.” A blue unicorn pony with green eyes greeted.

“Welcome.” A pink unicorn with pink eyes and pigtails greeted.

“Welcome.” A blue pony with gray eyes and mane greeted.

“Welcome.” A brown pony with a blonde mane and pigtails greeted as her children walked with her.

“Welcome.” The fillies walking with their mother greeted.

“This must be the most pleasant place in Equestria!” Fluttershy positively commented as she flew by as another peagsus with gray fur and a white mane flew up to greet her.

“Welcome!”

Fluttershy giggled at the friendly greeting.

“Ugh. Thanks a lot, map.” Rainbow Dash groaned in boredom.

“Welcome! Pardon my forwardness, but are you an Alicorn?” A light blue furred unicorn greeted as he approached the group and questioned Twilight and Sarah who grinned humbly.

“That there's the Princess of Friendship and the Queen of Harmony!” Applejack introduced them to him.

“Well, you've certainly come to the right place for friendship.” He further greeted the alicorn.

“What brings you to town?” A white pony with a matching mane and blue eyes questioned Moonshine.

“We're not entirely sure.” Twilight honestly answered.

“I see. Well, all are welcome here in our little village.” The white stallion further welcomed the six before introducing themselves as he directs a hoof towards himself and at the pony next to him. “My name is Double Diamond, and this is Party Favor.

“Howdy, Double Diamond. I'm Applejack, and this here's Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, Sarah Gem, Ren, Kaede, Jamie, Jack, Rantaro, Nicole, Carrie, Mason and Skye." Applejack introduced the whole group by pointing her hoof at each pony around her. Double Diamond them looked down at Twilight's cutie mark.

“And you all have your own unique cutie marks.” Double Diamond observed her and Pinkie’s cutie marks.

“If you don't mind, has there been any sort of... trouble here, lately?” Twilight quickly questioned.

“Trouble? Why, I don't think we've ever had trouble in our little village.” Double Diamond answered while still smiling.

“It's true. You'll see. Hm.” Party Favor added in agreement.

“Perhaps you'd care to speak to our founder Starlight Glimmer.” Double Diamond offered as they lead her in her direction.

“I wish everypony in Equestria was as friendly as these ponies are.” Fluttershy hopefully wished as she faced her friends.

“I've got my eye on them. Something's rotten in... whatever the name of this village is that we're.” Pinkie suspiciously told her as she saw the smiling ponies following them.

“Agreed.” Twilight agreed with Pinkie in the same tone. “Something is definitely suspicious around here and I think this pony we are about to meet is behind this.”

“Yes, those ponies eyes were filled with unhappiness.” Nicole said. “Like they've been brainwashed.”

Double Diamond and Party Favor approached a door and both knock on it at the same time.

“Starlight, we have some new visitors.” Double Diamond told the pony inside as all eight ponies walk inside.

“Be ready to fight. We don't know what's gonna come through that door.” Rainbow Dash warned Applejack in a whispered tone as the pony opened the door in front of them and out from the room is a pink unicorn with a purple mane with light blue streaks and blue eyes.

“Welcome! I'm so pleased to have you here.” Starlight happily greeted the Mane Seven.

Rainbow Dash groaned in disappointment as if she was expecting somepony more dangerous.

“This is Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, Sarah Gem, Ren, Skye, Jack, Jamie, Rantaro, Nicole, Kaede, Carrie and Mason.” Double Diamond introduced the Mane Seven to Starlight as she inspects Twilight and Sarah closely.

“Forgive my bluntness, but I'm assuming its Princess Twilight and Sarah ? We don't get many Alicorns around here.” Starlight questioned Moonshine, who still grins nervously.

"Ha! Sarah’s not just an alicorn. She's the Queen of Harmony." Rainbow bragged, earning a hard nudge from Applejack. "Ow!"

"A Princess and a Queen what an honor." Starlight stated.

“Yes, but "Twilight and Sarah" are fine.” Twilight humbly and nervously responded.

“So! How did you hear of our little village?” Starlight eagerly questioned while still smiling a little creepier this time.

“It's kind of a long story. Let's just say we found it on a map.” Twilight explained the short and straight to the point way.

“Technically, it's a Tree-chest-castle-map!” Pinkie Pie happily added before her face turned back to her suspicious face as she moved away from Starlight.

“Well, however you found us, we're happy to have you! We're happy to have any pony who wants to experience true friendship for the first time.” Starlight spoke with pleasure in her voice as the group eyed each other in confusion by what she meant.

“Say what?” Applejack questioned out of confusion.

“Oh, indeed. Starlight said. “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.”

“Is that why you all have those cutie marks?” Twilight asked, pointing to her Equal Sign on her flank.

“Perhaps it would be easier to understand if I gave you a tour of the village!” Starlight said, grinning just like the ponies outside.

She stepped forward towards the door as she addresses everypony in town.

“Heads high, ponies! Marching proud! All together now! Every one of you! No pony left behind!” Starlight Glimmer marched throughout town wanting everypony still smiling to follow her lead as she begins to sing.

"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.”

Starlight sang as she marched forward and then turned towards all of us as the town ponies circle around us.

“In Our Town, in Our Town

We don't have to wait

To find out that our destiny

Is just to emulate.”

The towns ponies sang as they marched around us.

Sarah watched this and she felt something was definitely wrong here.. but she couldn't place her hoof on it.

“Let's see those big, happy smiles!” Starlight instructed everypony to continue keeping up their wide smiles.

“Life is a smile in Our Town

Our cutie mark's the same

Because we do not separate

Ourselves by more than name.”

Starlight sang as the town ponies marched into single file formation.

“In Our Town, in Our Town

We dare not compete

Winning only breeds the worst

Ego-filled conceit.”

The town ponies sang as two Pegasus ponies flew up to Rainbow Dash to lower her back down to the ground leaving her exasperated and insulted that these ponies see competition for ponies with overinflated egos and that it brings out the worst in ponies win or lose.

“You see? Now everypony wins!” Starlight told Rainbow to encourage her that her approach to friendship is better this way leaving Rainbow uncomfortable with that idea.

“Life is a joy in Our Town

We're all equal here

No one is superior

And no one shakes in fear.”

Starlight sang as she marched upfront and used her magic to make sure one of the mares has her mane tied up pig-tail style which Twilight took notice of.

“In Our Town, in Our Town

We work as a team

You can't have a nightmare

If you never dream.”

The town ponies sang they marched in rows of four in front of the Mane Seven.

“Other ponies argue

Do you ever wonder why?”

Starlight sang as she trots around Pinkie and Fluttershy as the former is more warm-welcoming while the latter is still frowning very suspicious at their smiles.

“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 as the town ponies danced around.

“In Our Town, in Our Town

We don't complicate

When you learn to simplify

Life is oh, so great.”

The town ponies sang as Fluttershy started dancing to the tune to which Pinkie which frowns at her to get her stop to which Fluttershy recoils in submission.

“Join in our utopia

Come out of the dark

Banded by equality

By our cutie mark!”

The town ponies sang as they formed up in single file and row and row formation with the peagsus ponies flying through with an equal sign banner.

“You're kidding, right? Give up our cutie marks? No way!” Rainbow Dash laughed off the very idea.

“Rainbow Dash, don't be so rude.” Fluttershy scolded her. “I don't think we should judge them. They all seem perfectly happy with their choice.”

“Don't believe their smiles, Fluttershy.” Pinkie quickly warned Fluttershy against trusting them.

“I'm sorry, I guess we're just a little confused by all of this.” Twilight politely told Starlight.

“We have no judgments here in our village. Each of us was confused once as well, blinded by the false promise of our cutie marks.” Starlight assured Twilight nopony holds any judgement on them.

“Whoa, whoa, whoa. Is she for real?” Rainbow Dash questioned as if all of this is a huge joke which earned her a glare from Twilight.

“When we were sent to this village, we assumed it was to help in some way. But, well, it doesn't seem like you need any help.” Twilight explained her reasons for visiting while still politely smiling.

“Have you considered perhaps that you might have been sent here so we could help you?” Starlight suggested as she placed a hoof on Twilight's chest. “After all, nopony has ever come to our village and wanted to leave. Why should you be any different?” She questioned the Mane Seven who look at each other in confusion.

“But that is entirely your choice. Please enjoy our little corner of Equestria. We're all quite fond of it. No doubt you will be as well. Double Diamond, please help our guests with whatever they might need.” Starlight instructed him to help them feel accommodated for their visit.

“Of course.” Double Diamond obliged to Starlight’s request who continues grinning at the Mane Seven who all look uneasy by this gesture as Starlight trotted off

As we walked forward with Double Diamond right behind us, more town ponies greeted them while still sporting the same smiles.

“A cutie mark is a representation of a pony's unique talents and skills. How is it possible to—“ Twilight questioned the very possibility of all of this before being interrupted by Rarity’s gasping.

“What in the name of Equestria is that?!” Rarity exclaimed as she pointed a hoof at ragged brown cloaks.

“Welcome! Care to sample some local fashion? We've got cloaks this month!” The brown stallion offered to which Rarity resisted the urge to throw up.

“Wha— Ooh, er, perhaps another time, good sir, thank you.” Rarity awkwardly and politely told him as she nervously backed away as the group proceeded to sit on a nearby table “No wonder nopony's wearing anything!” She whispered to her friends.

“Really, girls!” Fluttershy scolded the girls in a hushed tone. “They may do things a bit differently than we're used to, but that's no reason to be rude.”

“No, the reason to be rude is that they all keep staring at us!” Rainbow Dash commented feeling the need to correct Fluttershy.

“Need something?” Double Diamond asked the Mane Seven from a table.

“Uh, no! We're good!” Moonshine politely told him before turning back to the girls in a hushed tone. “Fluttershy's right. If we're going to get to the bottom of why the map sent us here, we'll need the help of these ponies.”

“I think we ran off to the end of Equestria before we even knew what that map was!” Applejack complained that this is all a waste of time.

“If we were at the end of Equestria, we'd be sitting on a big 'A'!“ Pinkie Pie giggling joked as she raised her hooves up. “Get it?”

"Girls, the my surrogate mother is a whole lot smarter than it looks. It made my Element and saved my, Ren and the others lives by teleporting us to Equestria. Do you really think it would send us here for no reason?" Sarah pointed out. The girls looked at each other and they had to agree. The Tree of Harmony has done so much for Sarah and all of us. We shouldn't really doubt its ability.

"Sarah’s right. There's something definitely wrong here." Twilight agreed.

“Is this a bad time?” The waitress pony who had been listening to their conversation politely chimed in.

“We shouldn't be bickering like this in front of our new friends. Really, Applejack, you're almost as bad as Rainbow Dash!” Fluttershy continued to defend the villagers while scolding Applejack.

“Don't drag me into this!” Rainbow Dash objected to Fluttershy’s comment.

“Is your friendship ending?” The waitress questioned as she faced Rarity.

“What the hell does that mean?” Jack asked.

“Are you crazy?! We'd never let a disagreement get in the way of food!” Pinkie Pie energetically exclaimed.

“O-kay, well, my name is Sugar Belle.” The waitress introduced herself and used her magic to lift up a notepad ready to take their order. “What can I bring you? We have: muffins... “

The group expected more items off the menu to be offered but her awkward silence clues them in that muffins are the only thing she can offer.

“Then I guess we'll take six muffins!” Twilight told her.

“Make that twelve!” Pinkie Pie eagerly exclaimed as her friends gave her weird looks. “What? I'm hungry!” She defended herself.

“Come on, girls. We've got to stick together. It doesn't matter what happened before, we're here now.” Twilight spoke to her friends in a hushed tone to ensure nopony else is eavesdropping on their conversation.

“I guess you're right.” Applejack accepted. “And the sooner we figure out why, the sooner we can go home.”

At that moment Sugar Belle came back with a plate of muffins she placed in the center of the table.

“Forgive me for overhearing” Sugar Belle mentioned. “But just a moment ago you were disagreeing, and now it sounds like you're... agreeing.”

“Uh-huh...” Applejack responded with crossed hooves.

“Well, you had such differing opinions – and cutie marks.” Sugar Belle continued to speak with confusion.

“We have differing opinions all the time, darling.” Rarity answered as if it is no surprise to them.

“But you look like you're friends.” Sugar Belle pointed out.

“We are friends. A simple disagreement wouldn't change that.” Twilight positively responded which led to Sugar Belle smiling nervously at that statement before frowning as she again speaks her mind.

“I'm sorry, I'm just having a hard time understanding. Different talents lead to different opinions, which lead to bitterness and misery.” She explained before turning her frown back into a smile. “So... why aren't you bitter and...?”

Sugar Belle is quickly interrupted when Pinkie Pie chokes and spits out a muffin she had just ate “Blech!” She quickly corrects herself by faking a smile to feign politeness. “Mmmm... good...”

“It's all right.” Sugar Belle assured Pinkie she holds nothing against her for not liking her muffins. “I know I'm not a very good baker.” She admitted. “At least, I know I'm not any better than anypony else in the village.” She took a glance behind her directed at Double Diamond and quickly darted back with a sense of anxiety. “Well, I... hope you enjoy our little village!”

She began walking inside the shop as Pinkie loudly scraped the bits and pieces of muffin off her tongue. Sugar Belle quickly stopped between Twilight and Pinkie to address before.

“Come inside before you go! Meet me downstairs!” Sugar Belle told them in distress before sporting a grin before heading inside.

“Okay, that was weird too.” Rainbow Dash commented as she stretched out her hoof across the table.

“Let's all sit here and eat these muffins and act normal.” Twilight instructed the others in a hushed tone as she eyed everypony around them suspiciously. “I think we're being watched.” She points out to everypony still wide smiling at them while doing their daily business.

“You think?” Rainbow Dash sarcastically replied.

“No, not like that!” Twilight corrected. ”I mean somepony here doesn't want us talking to Sugar Belle.” She added as she pointed her eyes at Double Diamond who is watching them while biting into a muffin.

“I got an idea.” Applejack offered an idea. “But you gotta eat all of them muffins, Pinkie.”

“Me?! Why me?!” Pinkie protested.

“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 reasoned with her who reluctantly sees her point as she proceeds to bite into and eat all of the muffins and by the time she finally manages to eat them all her face is now sickly green.

“I can't believe you ate all our muffins, Pinkie Pie!” Applejack announced as the others look at everypony with forced smiles. “We'd best go inside and get some more!”

The group immediately head downstairs per Sugar Belle’s instructions.

“Nice work, Pinkie.” Twilight commended Pinkie as they headed downstairs as Pinkie Pie bounced downstairs with a balloon belly.

“I've accidentally eaten cardboard tastier than that...” Pinkie sadly commented over being forced to literally stomach in all of those muffins.

“Hello? Sugar Belle?” Twilight called out.

“Thank you for coming!” Sugar Belle spoke up as she emerged from the dark and sported another wide smile.

“Why did you want us to come down here?” Twilight asked.

“So nopony could see what's about to happen.” Sugar Belle answered with a smirk as some of the ponies gathered around them ominously causing Twilight to ready her horn to attack in self-defense until Party Favor leaned in like a fan pony.

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

“Do you know Princess Celestia?” Night Glider questioned as she leaned in towards Twilight.

“I love your cutie mark!” Sugar Belle commented as she touched Pinkie’s flank.

Night Glider looked at Ren and the other’s cutie marks. “Wow, how did you nine humans get those cutie marks like that. I thought only ponies could.”

“How can you be friends with different cutie marks? Don't you end up hating each other?” Night Glider questioned as she flew in front of Rarity and Fluttershy.

“Oh, look at this one! This one's great too!” Sugar Belle commented on Fluttershy’s cutie mark as she touched her flank. “I'd love to have my special talent back even just for a day! Make something besides those disgusting muffins...” She added sounding depressed.

“So what's stopping you? Go get your cutie marks back.” Rainbow Dash responded wondering why it’s so hard to do so.

“Daydreaming is one thing, but you mean actually having it put back on? That seems extreme.” Party Favor answered as he spoke. "I was still afraid to go near them.

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

“How do you take somepony's cutie mark anyway?” Twilight asked.

“The cutie unmarking is a beautiful experience!” Night Glider answered and recalled. “Starlight uses the Staff of Sameness to magically take them away and replace them with these.” She explained as she pointed towards the equal sign marks on her and the other’s flanks.

“But nopony should keep you from your cutie mark. It represents such an essential part of who you are.” Twilight spoke from experience.

“Yeah, it like taking away what made you special.” Jamie added.

“No one should keep you from that.” Kaede added.

“Oh, we're not kept from them.” Night Glider quickly responded. “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.”

"Wait... how come you don't have a cutie mark?" Double Diamond asked, pointing to Sarah’s blank flank.

"Oh, I don't know. I guess I didn't figure out my special talent yet." Sarah replied honestly.

"But don't you friends hate you cause you don't have a cutie mark?" Night Glider asked.

"Of course not! Just because she doesn't have a cutie mark doesn't mean we'd stop being friends with her." Rainbow stated.

“Yeah, Skittles it right. So Newbie does have cutie-patootie mark, we’re still friends with her.” Jack added.

"Yeah, Sarah is just as special as the rest of us, even if she doesn't have a cutie mark." Pinkie added. The three ponies looked at each other, confused.

After a moment of thinking Twilight asked them. “Can we visit this cave?"

Soon, we were lead into a mountain cave behind the village and down a tunnel. Once they got to the end of it, they all gasped seeing a large vault with multiple cutie marks locked inside of it. "Behold! Our cutie mark vault!"

"I've never seen anything like it!" Twilight exclaimed in shock.

"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! I'm curious – how did the subject of the vault come up?" Starlight asked.

"Oh, I was just wondering why everypony had the same cutie mark. Ponies can still be friends with different cutie marks like my friends." Sarah stated.

"Well, w-we certainly didn't intend to cause any disruptions to your charming little—" Rarity said nervously.

"Good. Let's just make sure of that, shall we?" Starlight Glimmer questioned as some ponies came out of the shadows. "It's a trap!" Twilight exclaimed.

I took out my Hacking Gun at the ponies while Mason and Jack readied their fists. She teleported out of the circle and readied her magic but Starlight used her Staff and blasted Twilight, holding her in place and forcefully removing her cutie mark! "Twilight!" Sarah cried in horror as she fell to the ground.

The Starlight did the same with her friends! Removing their cutie marks by force and locking them in the vault!

“Aw. I don't blame you for what you tried to do here today. You've spent your whole lives thinking those marks are a good thing.” Starlight gloated still trying to make the whole situation still sound positive.

“You can’t do that, you maggot!" Skye exclaimed.

“Give them back!” Twilight demanded.

“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 responded as she put her staff away as the ponies who gathered inside of the cave gather around them.

"Not I have anything to say about it..!" Sarah growled as she readied her magic. Starlight blasted her with the Staff of Sameness too.. However Sarah’s Element of Hope activated and created a shield around her!

"What?!" Starlight growled.

Sarah then unleashed a shockwave, knocking Starlight and the other ponies back.

Sarah quickly flew over and blasted the pieces of glass with her friends cutie marks and they returned to their owners, returning their abilities and talents to them. Starlight got up and snarled in anger at what Sarah did. Sarah then took off her Element of Hope and threw at Twilight who caught it in her magic,

"Guys! Get out of here!" Sarah called.

"What?! But Sarah..!" Twilight exclaimed but Sarah yelled, "GOOO!" before Starlight struck her with magic, freezing her in place. Twilight knew she had no choice and she teleported all of us out of the cave.

"I've done a lot to give these ponies friendship and you're not going to ruin it!" Starlight yelled at her before she took out a jar. Suddenly, Sarah felt a strong and painful tug in her horn and she grunted and groaned in pain as Starlight removed her magic and placed it in the jar!

Whens she was done, Starlight dropped her on the floor. Sarah felt so weak that she could barely keep her eyes open. "You may not have a cutie mark, but you will be valuable to my cause..." Starlight said with an evil smirk before everything went black for Moonshine.

Starlight Glimmer carried an unconscious Sarah into one of her buildings and just dropped her on the floor. Starlight smiled evilly at her as she gazed at the jar filled with her stolen magic. "Foolish Alicorn, challenging my philosophy? Hehehe... big mistake."

Starlight used her magic to create a chain and tied it around Sarah’s left back hoof and attached it to a stack in the house. "Hehe... still.. I'm sure those 'strangers' will come and rescue you, but they won't get far, cause I'll be ready for them.. and once I have their cutie marks all of Equestria will know what I'm trying to accomplish."

Starlight then walked out of the building and slammed the door shut and ordered two ponies at the door to guard it. "Perfect... now..." Starlight looks at the jaw with Moonshine's magic inside of it. "Let's see just how powerful her magic is..."

]

We were hiding outside of the village, over looking it from a hilltop. "Alright girls, I think that made it pretty clear about why the map sent us here.." Twilight said to her friends.

“That was friggin obvious!” Jack yelled. “That brat took our cutie marks and tried to force us to join her village!”

"Yeah, Starlight Glimmer is forcing everypony to give up their cutie marks so they can have her version of 'friendship'." Applejack stated. "If it weren't for Sarah steppin' in like that, we would have been in the same situation."

"Oh... I hope she's alright." Fluttershy cooed with worry.

“I’m sure she’s fine..” Rantaro dismissed.

“Rantaro, Sarah gave her Element to Twilight, that was her only protection against Starlight. Without it, who knows what she did to her.”

"Yeah, let's go get her back!" Rainbow exclaimed, but before she could fly into town, Twilight caught her by the tail. "Rainbow! You can't just barge into town like that. Starlight might have some kind of trap waiting for us." Twilight scolded.

"Twilight's right. We need a way to figure out if Sarah is alright." Applejack stated. "But how..?"

Suddenly Discord appeared, "Oh for Scorpan's sake, why didn't you call me when you found a pony causing her own kind of chaos?" he whined.

“What the-?!” Ren exclaimed.

"Discord? What are you doing here?!" Twilight exclaimed, shocked to see the Spirit of Chaos.

"Oh isn't eavesdropping not the way you figure out what your dear friends and daughter are doing?" Discord questioned with an innocent look earning a 'No!" from Twilight and the others.

"Oh well." Discord shrugged. "If you want to see from all the way out here, then.." Discord snapped his fingers and he made some binoculars appear. "These should help..."

Twilight took the binoculars in her magic and looked through them. "Woah... these have X-Ray vision, I can see right through the buildings.." she said in awe. She looked into the building that was guarded by two ponies and gasped, "Sarah..!"

"Twilight, what's wrong?" Applejack asked.

"Sarah’s unconscious in one of the buildings and..." Twilight then looked at the building at the end of the village and saw Starlight Glimmer holding a jar with magic inside. "Now let's see just what this Queens magic can do. With such power, I'll be able to remove the cutie marks of everypony all over Equestria and everypony will understand my version of harmony.. hahaha...!" Starlight laughed evily, making Twilight gasped in utter shock.

"What is it?" Rainbow asked.

"Starlight Glimmer stole Sarah’s magic! And she's going to use to so she can take the cutie marks of everyone in Equestria!" Twilight exclaimed and the rest of us gasped in horror.

“Oh dear..” Discord said in worry.

“Discord, what’s wrong?” I asked.

“Well since Sarah’s magic is taken that also means that the power we used to create her is stolen as well. The meteorites’ power is like her life force. If the power is out of her for too long well... “ Discord moved a finger across his neck.

“Wait, wait… you mean… Sarah will die if she doesn’t get her magic and power back!” I exclaimed in horror.

Discord nodded and the group was horrified and knew this was more serious than ever.

"We gotta stop her!" Rainbow exclaimed, knocking her hooves together.

"But how? That pony probably got a hole bunch of ponies on the lookout for us." Applejack reminded me. "We need a sneaky way to get in, save Sarah and get out, while showing everypony that what Starlight is doing is wrong..."

Sarah’s POV

Uhh.... w-what...?

I began to come to and I felt a major headache. "Ugh...." I tried to move my legs but they felt like jelly. I weakly lifted my head. W-Where am I...? All I remember is... the Cutie Mark Cave and.... just then I heard the door opened and I saw Starlight Glimmer with a tray on it with an apple and some water.

Her....

"Hello Queen Sarah... I decided to bring you some food.." Starlight stated in a nice voice, but Sarah didn't buy it.

"G-Give me... back my.. magic..." I growled as she weakly staggered to her feet.

"Hello Princess... I decided to bring you some food.." Starlight stated in a nice voice, but I didn't buy it.

"G-Give me... back my.. magic..." I growled as I weakly staggered to her hooves.

"I'm afraid you're in no shape to make demands." Starlight smiled wickedly and I turned and saw the chain on her my hoof. "You... can't keep.. me here... forever..." I stammered, trying to sound as serious as I could.

"Oh.. I think I can.." Starlight smirked. "Without your magic, my guards at the door, there's no way you're leaving.."

"My... friends will.. come for me..." I replied.

"Ah yes those strangers. All different ponies and those... other creatures who believe that they were something special with their cutie marks." Starlight growled with an angry expression. "They don't have any real friendships. They are just blinded by their cutie marks."

"Their friendship.... is real... and their cutie marks and differences make their friendships stronger." I replied, gaining a little strength back.

"This coming from the pony who doesn't have a cutie mark! Let alone a Alicorn Queen! Your friends would be ashamed that you don't have a cutie mark and yet you stand up for those who do!" Starlight yelled at me.

"My friends would never be ashamed of me. They would be proud that I'm standing up for what I believe in even if it means going against what you have to say.." I growled at Starlight. Starlight had enough and blasted me sending me slamming into the back wall. "Ugh..!" the impact made the glass of water spill onto Starlight's flank.. revealing her actual cutie mark! It was a stream of blue magic that was attached to a purple star!

"You still have your cutie mark..." I narrowed her eyes at her.

Starlight gasped,"Oh shoot."

"If you say everypony is supposed to be equal in this town? Why do you still have your cutie mark?"

Starlight sighed and shook her head. "I'm sorry. That was my fault. I should have been more careful." She neatly folded the towel and placed it on top of a flat surface. "It looks like I'll have to find some sort of spell in one of my books that'll wipe your memory of what just happened here. Maybe it'll wipe your whole memory. Who knows."

"Wha…what?" I stammered.

"Forgive me. But if you're to stay, I must do it for the sake of the village." She brought out some makeup and covered her cutie mark. Then, she brought out a stencil and used the makeup to brush back on her fake cutie mark. Afterwards, she prepared to continue leaving.

"Don't worry. I'll wait until our little mess is over and done with." She opened the door and walked out. However, she peeked in before completely leaving. "Remember, don't try anything dumb, okay? I'd really hate to end up having to take some drastic measures." She shut the door and locked it.

I knew for sure now! It wasn't the staff that took away the ponies cutie marks. It was her magic! "I.. have to get this info to Twilight and my friends... but how...?" I pondered before I spotted a piece of paper and a pencil.

I was able to reach it, despite being chained up and I wrote down a message on the paper before I folded it into a paper airplane. "How can I get this to Twilight and my friends...?" I wondered before... a small mailbox came floating over to me that said 'Please place inside for Twilight Sparkle'.

I blinked at it, confused as to how this managed to get in here, but seeing that it may be my only chance, I placed the letter inside and the mailbox vanished in a bright flash, and I hoped that it would get to her friends.

Ren's POV

Meanwhile, the mailbox poofed up in front of Twilight and her friends. "I can't believe that actually worked, Discord." Twilight said, taking the letter out of the box.

"Well of course it worked. I made it.." Discord bragged. The girls, save for Fluttershy and Pinkie, rolled their eyes as Twilight read the letter out loud.

"Guys, Starlight Glimmer's cutie mark is fake! She covered it up with makeup. It was her magic that was used to removed your cutie marks before I stepped it. It was never the staff. You have to get the townsponies to realize this. Use Water, it'll wiped off the make up easily."

“That lying bastard!” Jack said.

“She deceived everyone.” Nicole narrowed her eyes.

"I knew something was wrong with her!" Twilight exclaimed.

"That mare was nothing but a faker!" Applejack added.

"Yeah, and now she has our friend and her magic captive. We've gotta do something now before we lose our friend forever!" Rainbow added.

"Hmm... I think I know what we can do..." Twilight smirked while looking at Discord.

Sarah's POV

Soon, I was being lead out of the building by Starlight with all of the townsponies watching. "I trust that you've made your decision, Princess?" Starlight asked with a smirk. But I just narrowed my eyes and looked away. "No? Hmm.. maybe another day will help change your mind.."

"Stop!" a voice came and everypony saw the all my friends walking into the village. "Ah.. so the strangers have returned, huh?" Starlight smirked.

"Yeah, we're here for our Queen and her magic.." Rainbow growled, "So give 'em up!"

"Yeah, you can't force anypony to give up their cutie marks or what makes them special. It doesn't work like that." Applejack added with a glare.

"What are you talking about, we're all equal here." Starlight stated innocently. "Well except for you six. Those cutie marks have blinded you of real friendship."

"No they don't, Starlight." Twilight stated. "Cutie marks make our friendship stronger. It doesn't matter if we're different what matters is that we're all friends which is what really matters."

Starlight laughed mockingly, "My village is a place of equality and friendship. Friendship that is stronger than whatever you six have."

"Equality, you say...?" a voice came before a small dark cloud came above Starlight. "Well what do you have to say about this..?" and then it started to rain on Starlight. "Hey!" she exclaimed as she got soaked.

Then the cloud stopped its small downpour and Starlight shook herself clean and everypony in the village gasped, seeing her real cutie mark!

Starlight noticed then and widened her eyes extremely in shock as she covered her flank with her tail. "Wha... What are you looking at?! They're the problem, not me!" She said pointed towards the Twilight, Ren and the others and laughed nervously.

"You lied to us…?" Party Favor questioned with an expression of devastated shock.

"How could you?" Night Glider asked.

"You said cutie marks were evil!" Double Diamond joined in. "You said special talents led to pain and heartache!"

"They do! Don't you see?! Look at them!" She was clearly desperate now. "Look at what they're doing to us! We were perfectly fine and happy before they came to town!"

"Then why?" Sugar Belle grew the confidence to confront Starlight. "Why did you take ours and not give up your own?"

"I..." Starlight Glimmer was sweating now. "I-I-I…" Her eyes clenched shut and her eyebrows furrowed. Tension squeezed out from her face before she reopened her eyes. "I had to, you fools! How could I collect your cutie marks without my magic?!"

"But the staff has all the magic we need!" Night Glider retorted.

"The staff is a piece of wood I found in the desert!" Starlight Glimmer finally confessed. "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!"

"The only thing you created was your own version of Communism." Nicole said with her eyes narrowed.

"You lied to us!" Party Favor answered back.

"So what? E-Everything else I said is true! The only way to be happy is if we're all equal!" She stated that last part with confidence as if everything would go back the way it was.

"Except for you." Sugar Belle pointed out.

Starlight was prepared to shoot a fiery glare back at this pony before Moonshine stepped forward and spoke up.

"Everypony has unique talents and gifts, and when we share them with each other, that's how rea—"

"QUIET!" Starlight Glimmer bellowed out, only to receive a tackle from me!

I kicked Starlight away from my friends and she skidded across the ground. "You can't have a cutie mark, Starlight! Either we're all equal, or none of us are!" Sugar Belle asserted.

Everypony slowly began surrounding Starlight, leading her to anxiously turn her head around to see her becoming cornered.

Starlight Glimmer's eyes began shooting daggers at me. Uh oh! Her eyes closed shut and a bubble began to form around her. Her horn glowed with magic, and we were soon pushed aside, giving her space to run through.

Starlight then shot another ray of magic at me and everything went black for me!

Ren's POV

Holy cow! Starlight blasted Sarah with her magic and knocked her unconscious before she carried her in her magic and ran in the direction of the building she had been keeping her. "Sarah!" I exclaimed in horror.

“Newbie!” Jack exclaimed in horror.

"You ponies get your cutie marks! We'll handle this!" Twilight directed the others and followed behind.

As soon as the ponies reached the door, Jack, Mason, Applejack and Rainbow began banging the sturdy wood loudly, "Open the door, Starlight!" Applejack exclaimed.

We could hear things being moved around and shuffled inside. "You think you can come to my village and take everything I worked so hard for and destroy it just like that?!" Starlight's voice angrily sounded through. "Let's see how you like it when I take something from you!"

"Not if we have anything to say about it.." Rainbow Dash flew backwards and she used her speed to kick down the door. the girls immediately galloped inside and searched for any sign of Starlight.

"Where are they?!" Fluttershy asked with worry

"Look! Up here!" Twilight called from up the stairs. We all came upstairs and entered a bedroom. However, the bed had been merely thrown to the side and revealed some kind of secret escape in the floor. "Come on.." Twilight said and we all rushed through the escape door and they came out on the other side of the tunnel, outside of the village near a path towards snowy mountaintops.

"Look!" Rainbow Dash pointed out in midair.

"She's headed for the pass!" Twilight added. "If she gets into those mountains, we'll never see her and Sarah!"

Rainbow spread out her wings. "We need to stop her!"

We all familiar roar and saw a Light Fury flying over head with two pokemon on her back. "Snowflake..!" The girls cried happily. The Light Fury cooed at us before we saw her flying over to where Starlight was running.

"Come on..." Twilight called.

"Wait for us..!" the girls turned and saw Party Favor, Sugar Belle, Double Diamond and Night Glider running and flying towards them, joining the chase, now with their cutie marks and colors restored.

Starlight ran down the path and saw Snowflake flying towards her, "Back off Dragon!" she growled and fired a blast of magic but Pikachu countered with Thunderbolt.

Starlight growled and Snowflake fired a plasma blast in front of her, causing her to fly back and she fell on the ground. Snowflake blocked her path and snarled at her as we all blocked the backway.

"All of you! Nopony move! One step and I'm sending this little filly down this cliff, and I can promise you she'll never be found again!" Starlight Glimmer aggressively threatened, holding Sarah off of the path along with the jar of her stolen magic. "Don't try any magic either." She added, eyeing especially at the ones with horns. "I can promise you won't have enough time to help the Queen before she disappears never to be seen again."

"Think about what you're doing, Starlight!" I exclaimed. "What are you getting out from doing this? You do anything to her, you'll surely find yourself being banished from Equestria! Is that what you want?"

She scoffed loudly. "You think I care about banishment? You want to know how hard I worked to raise that village you all so easily destroyed in a matter of minutes?! I had to go through so much! I had to lose so much to get to where I was, and you all took that away from me! If anypony should be banished, it's you all! I won't be satisfied until I see the look on your faces when you lose something so dearly like I did!" and then she let Sarah and her jar of magic fall!

"Sarah!" Twilight gasped in horror but Snowflake and Rainbow dove down at great speed and Snowflake grabbed Sarah in her claws while Rainbow caught the jar with her magic.

"Gotcha!" Rainbow smiled as she and Snowflake flew back up to us and placed Sarah and her magic on the ground.

"Is that how you treat somepony who gave you a loving and unjudging home?!" Starlight angrily asked Double Diamond, Party Favor, Sugar Belle and Night Glider who stood at the front of the group.

"You always said we had to be equal." Double Diamond answered back. "But what I realized is that we had to be equal on your terms. Not something that everypony agreed on!"

"Yeah!" Night Glider added in. "We were always scared of thinking of something and being punished by you for it! If you ask me, that's not equal at all! Just like Queen Sarah said."

Aggressively tightening and scrunching her eyes, Starlight proceeded to fire a spell towards these four ponies. However, Twilight immediately jumped in front them and protected them all with a strong steady magical barrier.

"Wh– I studied that spell for years!" Starlight argued to this surprise. "How can you—?"

"I studied magic for years too!" Twilight countered. "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 these guys! And I certainly wouldn't be here to stop you now!"

Starlight blocked out the lecture coming from Twilight's mouth and rolled her eyes. "Spare me your sentimental nonsense! I gave these ponies real friendships they never could've had otherwise!"

“What you gave them was a false life to live under, Starlight Glimmer.” Nicole said with a narrowed look. “You forced them into your own version of Communism, where everyone was the same under your rule. But you failed at that.”

"How do you know that?!" Double Diamond exclaimed. "You never even gave us a chance!" Completely outraged by this, Starlight fired up a shield-looking aura around her, making everypony back away. But with a snap of his fingers, Discord made Starlight disappear? What the-?

"Discord, what did you do?" I asked him.

"I simply put her in Tartarus. Hehehe. In a magic proof cage if I may add.." Discord smirked.

"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 stated.

"It's you who have taught us something." Party Favor said as he approached Twilight. "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!" He regrouped with the other three and they all shared a group hug.

"Does that mean you'll stay in the village?" Twilight asked.

"It's our home. I'm not going anywhere." Night Glider responded both firmly and proudly.

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

"And I finally have a chance to bake something besides terrible muffins!" Sugar Belle exchanged gleefully. Everypony laughed aloud before Snowflake cooed, nudging her unconscious friend.

"Okay girl.." Twilight smiled and Rainbow nodded before she smashed the jaw holding Sarah's magic and it flowed back into her horn. Sarah stirred as she opened her eyes, "W-What…?”

“Easy Newbie..” Jack said as he helped her up.

“How are you feeling?” I asked.

“I.. I think I’m okay…” Sarah said, rubbing her head. Snowflake, Pikachu and Zoura came over to her and nuzzled her.

Twilight chuckled, "She's just fine."

Back in the village, the group saw all the villagers, smiling and enjoying the small party they put together in celebration.

"Now those are real smiles." Pinkie Pie described as the villagers enjoyed the party.

Soon enough, a sound emerged from everyone and they saw their cutie marks glowing and shimmered as well.

"I'll never get used to that…" Applejack admitted.

“I don’t think any of us will..” Mason said.

"I think it's divine." Rarity sweetly objected.

"Does that mean that the map is calling us somewhere else?" Fluttershy questioned Twilight.

"I have a feeling it means our work here is done." Twilight settled with.

"Looks like you were right, Twilight. The map did have a reason for sendin' us here." Applejack brought up. "We brought real friendship to these here ponies. Guess that's why you're the Princess of Friendship." She ended with a wink.

"But the map didn't send me. It sent us." Twilight humbly included. "You're a part of me, all of you. And there's no doubt you're a part of my mission to spread friendship too."

The rest of them squealed and giggled as she shared a group hug.

"We don't have to go home right away, do we?" Pinkie Pie asked. "That Sugar Belle can bake!"

Discord then popped up, “Oh goodie! Some quality time with my dear old daughter, how about that.” he smiled. The group sighed at his presence.

"I don't see any harm in staying for a little while longer." Twilight mentioned. The girls cheered as they all entered the town to enjoy the festival.

To Be Continued...

Chapter 2: Special: Return to Earth

Author's Note

Time for the special event you've all been waiting for since the beginning of this series....!

Chapter 2: Special: Return to Earth

Ren’s POV

Huh...where am I? What is this place…? I found myself in a sparkling void with a blue background and white stars all around the place. “Hello…?” I called out.

“Ren?”

“Corporeal Loodan?”

Huh? I turned around and I saw Mason, Carrie, Jack, Jamie, Skye, Rantaro, Nicole, Kaede, Flutters, Twilight, Rainbow, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie, Celeste and Lulu.

“Woah…. What are you all doing here?” I asked them all.

“We don’t really know..” Jamie said nervously.

“I was patrolling the dream realm when I saw you and the other humans having a shared dream. I figured something was up so I gathered my sister, Twilight and her friends and entered your shared dream.” Luna explained to us. Shared dream..?

“A shared dream?” I repeated. Luna nodded and explained, “All of you are having the same dream together. This could be a sign of great importance.” But what could be that important that all of us were needed here. Suddenly, we heard footsteps and we saw Astral Twilight…!

Kodiak’s POV

Woah... what's Astral Twilight doing here?

"What's going on Ren?" I asked my best friend.

"I'm not sure..." Ren replied.

“Good, you have all answered my summonce.” she said. Oh…. so she must have caused the shared dream.

“Your summonce? For what?” Mason asked the Tree of Harmony.

“I have something very important to tell all of you..” Astral Twilight said. “.... It is time for Ren and the others to return back to Earth….”

We gasped in shock…. Okay… that was not expected. “R-Return… you mean…” Mason stammered.

“Yes, it is time for you all to return to Earth and stop the Dusk-7 virus once and for all.” Astral Twilight said.

“B-But how the hell are we supposed to get back home?” Jack questioned.

“Come to the Cave of Harmony, everypony and I shall do the rest…” Astral Twilight said before she stomped her hoof and sent out a beam of magic at the nine of us and then everything turned white…

Ren's POV

….

…..

Gah! I shot up in bed with a small cry, shocking Kodiak awake. “Huh? Ren? What is it….?” he asked me. I caught my breath after a minute before I answered him…. “W-We’re going home, boy…” I said to him and his eyes widened in shock and surprise. “R-Really?” he asked me.

“Y-Yeah. The Tree of Harmony said it was time for us to return and stop Void and his virus once and for all…” I replied. “..... I just…. Wonder what we’ll find when we get back…” Jonas, Lillie, mom, dad…. Would they still be okay…?

Either way, I quickly got my clothes on and packed my Hacking Gun and hoverboard and I met with the others in the living room where they all held grim expressions. “So…. we’re… going back home for the first time, huh..?” Kaede said grimly.

“Y-Yeah…. Wonder if any of our family are still alive…” Jamie said, clutching his notebook tightly.

“Yeah… I mean… our home is probably in ruins…” Kaede added. “Wonder if anyone survived… I mean, we were asleep for 1,000 years like Sarah. God knows what could have happened.”

Yeah… who knows what could have happened on Earth.

“Well…. I guess.. We better get to the Tree, right…?” I asked everyone and they reluctantly nodded.

Knock Knock

Huh? Who could that be? I opened the door and found Twilight, the Mane 5, Celeste, Lulu, Cadence and Shining Armor at the door all with saddlebags on them! “What the-? Twilight, girls, Princesses, Shining Armor, what are you all doing here?” I asked them all in shock.

“You think we’re really gonna let you all go home and face down Void and his virus without us?” Applejack smirked.

“Yeah! If you’re going, we’re goin’ with you! Right girls?” Rainbow added.

“Oooh! I’m nervouscited!” Pinkie squealed.

“You do know that’s not a real word, right?” Applejack questioned her. Oh girls….. They’ve been with us through everything so far… and now they’re gonna help us save our home…

“You’ve done so much for Equestria. Now it's’ time for us to return the favor.” Cadence added with a caring smile.

“Yeah, I’m not gonna let one of my own go into battle without me.” Shining Armor smirked, looking at Mason.

“D-Do you all have your pets with you?” Fluttershy asked everyone. We all nodded and Snow came beside Nicole, who rubbed him happily. “Great…”

“Alright everypony, let’s go to the Tree of Harmony.” Celeste said and we all nodded. Wonder what we’ll find once we return home… those shadow creatures that we saw in our dreams before… if our families are even alive after all this time… there are just so many questions… and I hope some of them have happy answers.

Finally, we arrived at the Castle of the Two Sisters and we entered the Cave of Harmony where we found Sarah and surprisingly Discord in front of the Tree of Harmony! “Sarah! Discord!”

Sarah and Discord turned around, “Hello everypony.” Sarah greeted.

“We were wondering when you would show up.” Discord added.

“What are you two doing here?” Rainbow asked the two.

“Uh hello? Who do you think has the power to get all of you back to Earth?” Discord asked, shocking us.

“You two are gonna get us back home?!” I exclaimed to them. Sarah and Discord nodded.

“We can combine our powers and open a portal back to our homeland.. Earth. When you’re ready just give the word…” Sarah said.

We all looked at each other with a mixture of nervousness, excitement and worry. Who knows what will be on the other side of that portal when we enter it… but… we have to.. For our families.

“We’re ready…” the nine of us said together and Sarah and Discord nodded. They joined hands and hoof and Sarah horn glowed very brightly as did the Tree of Harmony. Discord’s eyes glowed white as well and the two blasted two strong beams of magic at the center of the Tree of Harmony where a gigantic portal opened up! Wow…..

Sarah and Discord stopped, “Come along now…” Sarah said before she walked through the portal along with Discord. I was still worried… would we ever be able to come back to Equestria again? Can Twilight and the others return once this is all over? What will happen… guess we have to go in to find out. “You heard Sarah, let’s go everypony..” I called them all and they all nodded and we all walked into the portal and were blinded by the bright light.

….

When we opened our eyes…. Oh….my…. God….. the area around us… was almost barren…! We were all on a city street and there were meteors large and small honeycombed all over the streets and area nearby. Houses were completely destroyed, cars were burned down… and there was no sign of life.

“Oh my stars..!” Rarity exclaimed. “How horrid!”

“Horrid doesn’t even come close to describing this catastrophe..” Luna said, looking grimly at the destruction.

“Alright, first we have to find Ren and the others family, so they’ll know they’re alright. Ren. do you know where your family lives?” Twilight asked, looking at Ren.

“Oh uh… actually…” I looked around at the area and at the damaged buildings… “I lived right on this street…! MOM! DAD! JONAS! LILLIE!” I immediately bolted towards my house which was a few blocks down.

“Wait up, Coral Loodan!” Skye exclaimed from behind. Oh please, tell me they’re still alive. Please, please, please…

Ha.. Ha.. Ha.. finally.. My house… Oh… god…

About half of the house was destroyed on one side in the front door looking to be busted in. Twilight and the others caught up and followed me inside. “Mom! Dad! Lillie! Jonas!”I called inside of the house, which was ransacked. Probably by the angry mob. The couches in the living room were flipped over, the TV was broken beyond repair where there was a small burning flame in the kitchen which was also destroyed with food all over, the refrigerator flipped on its side and the table smashed to pieces. “I can’t believe your own people would do this..” Applejack said, looking grimly at the destruction.

Me either…. “Hey everypony, up here..!” Huh? Sarah? We all heard her voice upstairs and raced up and found her in the hallway where our bedrooms were. I checked all of their bedrooms…. But no sign of them.. “No…” I whispered, fearing the worst.

“Newbie what did you find?” Jack asked and Sarah levitated us a small business card. It said.

“Davenport Industry…”

The rest of the card was burnt so we couldn't read anything else. “Davenport… isn’t that the last names of your two papas, Newbie?” Jack asked. Sarah nodded, “Yeah.. my two papas must have been here.. Too…”

“So what does that mean?” Shining Armor asked.

“It probably means that either her two papas came and took Ren's family to safety or something else..” Celestia stated.

“Okay so where should we go next?” Rainbow asked us all.

“I wanna find my gang, Skittles.” Jack stated.

“Alright, then, to Austin, Texas, Discord..!” Sarah called.

“As you wish, honey.” and with one snap of his fingers, Discord teleported us to Austin, Texas. Jack gasped in shock, seeing his hometown in ruins..! The buildings were barely standing, some were completely gone while others had about half of them destroyed. The meteors were also honeycombed across the entire area. “Dad.. Mom..” he said before he bolted down the road. “Wait up, fatty!” Rainbow called as she flew after him and we all followed.

We made it to Jack’s house… or what was left of it. It was in a similar condition to my house. Jack grunted as we all went in search of any sign of his mom or dad. “Mom! Dad!” Jack called but he didn’t get a reply.

“Dammit.. Where are they..?” Jack grumbled to himself.

“Is there any other place your gang would hang out, Jack?” I asked him.

“Y-Yeah, our hideout in the desert..” Jack replied.

“One desert teleport, coming up.” Discord said and he snapped his fingers and we were in the desert. “Which way, Jack?” Sarah asked him.

“This way…” Jack said and we followed him for about thirty minutes until we came to his gang’s hideout… we saw meteors around the hideout and the Boys! Dad! Mom!” Jack called again, scanning the ground for any sign of where his gang could have gone. “Ugh… there’s nothing here!” he yelled in annoyance and hurt.

“Hey! Another card..!” Pinkie Pie called, showing us another card that said ‘Davenport Industry..”

“You folks again, Newbie?” Jack questioned.

“Indeed.. I remember, one of my papas always made business cards for promotion..” Sarah said looking at the card.

“So you think your papas gathered Jack’s parents and gang too?” Twilight inquired.

“It’s a possibility..” Sarah said. “But we have to check on their other families too.”

“C-Can we c-check on mine.. Please…?” Jamie asked nervously. Sarah nodded, “Of course, Discord..?”

“Oooh.. I’m on it..” Discord said and we soon reappeared in Beverly Hills, California. The entire city looked totally desolate and abandoned. Buildings were condemned and cars were in the street either on fire or crushed. Meteors were also honeycombed all over. “So where’s your mansion, Jamie..?” I asked him.

“O-Over there..” Jamie pointed to a large building a couple blocks away. We all raced over and Jamie was the first to enter his mansion. “I-I remember.. One of my sisters Molly, saying something about a emergency bunker..” Jamie said.

Emergency Bunker? Hmmm….

“I think I found it…!” Applejack called, pointing to a small hatch in the floor. I opened it and Celestia and Luna lit their horns and we followed them inside. The bunker looked like any other bunker I’ve seen; having some food and water… but.. There was dust everywhere, meaning someone hasn't been in here for years.

Rarity coughed at the dust, “Goodness… whoever used to be in here, isn’t not here anymore..”

“Oh….” Jamie said with worry.

“Hey.. another one of Sarah’s fathers’ business cards. They must have been here too, Jamie.” Twilight said, showing us another business card. Jamie sighed in relief, hoping his big family was alright.

“Kaede… what about you…?” Sarah asked, earning a surprised look from Kaede, “Do you wanna see your family..?”

“Eh… no thanks… they never really cared about me in the first place so… they probably won’t now..” Kaede said sadly. Oh Kaede….

“Um.. Discord.. Can we go see if Elena and our family is okay?” Mason questioned Discord.

“Rightio..!” and he suddenly teleported us to England in front of a large castle like-home. “That’s where we lived with Elena and the Ortega Family..” Carrie said. Mason nodded and we carefully walked through the destroyed gates, seeing the other meteors around the area. Mason carefully opened the door, which fell off of its hinges and onto the ground. “Woah….” Mason said with grief, seeing the extensive damage done to the inside of the castle. It was totally ransacked. “Elena! Cartar! Isla!” Mason called out but he didn’t get any response.

“Let’s get searching there must be something here..” Twilight said and we all agreed and searched every inch of the castle… but we didn’t find anything as to where the Ortega family could have gone too. “Find anything..?” I called as we all regrouped.

“Nothing..” Twilight said sadly.

“I just found another one of my papas business cards..” Sarah said. “This can’t be just a coincidence…”

“You think you're papas took all of our families to safety, Sarah?” Kaede asked.

“Hmm… they were both geniuses, so they would probably have been prepared for an apocalypse like situation. There is a high chance, but the question is where exactly did they take everyone who managed to survive all of this…?”

“It would have to be someplace where few people would know about.” Luna said.

“Indeed sister. The hiding place would have to be hidden extremely well for them to survive this long..” Celestia said. “The question is where..?”

Suddenly, a bright glow came and we saw Astral Twilight once more. “The Tree of Harmony?” Twilight gasped in awe.

“Hello everyone….” she greeted.

“What are you doing here?” I asked it.

“I am here to guide you to where your families are located..” she said. What?!

“Y-You know where my papas took them to?” Sarah asked her mentor. Astral Twilight nodded, “Yes Sarah. I can teleport you all there so you can reunite with them..” she stomped her hoof and she teleported us all to an extremely large, barren field.

There were no sign of plant or animal life anywhere! “Oh my goodness…!” Fluttershy gasped in horror, seeing no animals or plants near and far. Astral Twilight started to walk away from us and she turned to us, “Follow me…”

We all looked at each other but we trusted the Tree of Harmony through the barren land for almost an hour..

“Does anypony else notice that we haven’t ran into those shadow creatures?” Rainbow asked.

“That’s the only good thing about this, Skittles.” Jack claimed.

“I must agree with Jack.” Nicole said. “This is the only upside to our.. Destroyed world…”

I have to agree with Nicole… no shadow creatures, that’s the only thing good about this.. I mean.. All our homes are gone and our families are… God knows where…

Then, Astral Twilight stopped at something…a small hatch? “What the hell..?” Jack asked. Then, she turned to us… “What you seek.. lies beneath you all…” Astral Twilight said.

Lies beneath us..? “The rest is up to you all now… keep hope and light in your hearts and you will succeed in restoring you home.” Astral Twilight then stomped her hoof and sent a beam at Sarah and made her glow…. And turn into her real form.. A human.

As a human, Sarah was 18 years old with long, black, shoulder length hair with a rainbow stripe in the center of it, just like her mane did. She wore a white shirt with an alicorn on it and she wore jeans and a pair of black sneakers. All in all… she looked… hot.

“Wow…. nice look, Newbie…” Jack stated.

Sarah nodded at him. “Thanks..” She then bent down and knocked on the hatch. We waited for a minute before it moved and opened a little and pair of eyes appeared and asked, “Who are you…?”

Sarah grinned at the voice, “.... Dad…” The pair of eyes widened and the hatch opened some more… revealing Donald Davenport..!

“S-Sarah….” he said in shock. Sarah smiled and tears started to come out, “Daddy…” Donald teared up and the two of them hugged each other with such joy and relief. “I-I thought you were gone forever…” Donald said to her.

“It’s okay dad…. We’re home…” Sarah said. Donald then wiped his tears and saw the rest of us.

“Ren, Jack, Rantaro, Nicole, Jamie, Skye, Carrie, Mason, Kaede and…. Several… ponies..?” Donald stated.

“They’re a long story…” I said to him, pointing at Twilight and the others. “So… can we come in…?”

“Of course… your families have been waiting for all of you…” Donald said and she climbed back down the hatch, “Come on..” he called.

Sarah was the first one to climb down while Twilight and the others either flew or were carried down into the hatch as we all followed Donald.

When we made it to the ground we all saw a gigantic metal cave that looked like some kind of lab.. Kinda. There was a cyber desk and some screens on one side while the other side contained some beds. There were about five more tunnels that extended from the center. “What the hell is this place?” Rantaro asked.

“This… is where the ones who survive now live until we can find a way to end this crisis.” Donald said. I was amazed by this. Donald and his brother created this entire… underground world?

"Amazing..." Shining Armor gasped in awe.

"Yeah." Twilight added.

"Uh... Donny....?" Huh? Is that? We turned and we saw his brother, Douglas Davenport coming into the main room, "Who are the ponies?"

Sarah smiled and walked over to her second father, "Hi daddy..." Sarah grinned.

"Sarah.... is that you...? You're a pony too..?" Douglas asked in awe. Sarah nodded and Douglas smiled and bend down and the two shared a hug with each other. Awww.... finally... Sarah's reunited with her family again.

"H-How did you get here?" Douglas asked.

"We started searching for our families at our houses which were completely or almost destroyed by the meteors and we found your business cards at each house, so we figured you guys took them somewhere safe." I explained to them.

"Ha! And you said that was a stupid thing to do." Donald bragged, earning a sigh from his brother.

"Anyway, we were all lead here to this... underground sanctuary.." I finished and asked the dreaded question.. "So.... are our families... here?"

Donald and Douglas looked at each other and nodded, "Follow us.." Donald said and he and his brother went down the first tunnel to the far right.

Me and the others looked at each other with worry as we followed the duo down the metal hallway. We all came out to a fork that held three large doors on the far side. Donald went over to the first large door, "Your families are in here..." Donald said before he cracked the door open.

"Everyone.... I have something for you all..." Donald called out.

I held my breath as a large group of about 50 people came out of the room and when they laid their eyes at us, their eyes widened as well as our own...

J-Jonas... Lillie... Mom... Dad....!

T-They were all here....

Our families... we here....!

I...I couldn't believe it.... t..they were all here...

"Mom... Dad... Jonas... Lillie..." I gently called.

Third Person POV

"R-Ren...." Ren's father gaped in utter shock while his mother started shedding tears, "Y-You're alive...!"

Ren, himself shed tears at that moment, "I-I am..." he said. Ren's father, mother, Jonas and Lillie all rushed towards him and he rushed towards them and they came into one heartwarming group hug, shedding tears of joy. Fluttershy couldn't help but shed tears of her own at her boyfriends reunion with his family after all this time.

Jamie's 30 sisters bombarded him with hugs, kisses and look overs while Jamie tried to calm them all down. "Girls, girls, I'm alright.. r-really..?" Jamie stammered to make them back off a little.

"Jamie, what happened to you.." one of his elder sisters, Karli, asked him.

"It's a very, very long story..." Twilight said as she came up to him, much to the girls surprise.

"Whose the purple pony, Jamie?" one of his younger sisters, Lilly, asked him.

"T-This is Princess Twilight Sparkle... she's my... girlfriend.." Jamie replied with a blush.

"Girlfriend?!" His 30 sisters squealed with joy before they bombared him and Twilight with congratulations and hugs.

Jack, meanwhile, reunited with his father, Ryutaro Yamaki, and his mother, Midori Yamaki. "Oh honey, we're so happy you're back.." Midori said with tears in her eyes. Ryutaro patted him on the back, "Now where did you get off to all this time?" he asked.

"It's a long story... dad...." Jack stated as Rainbow Dash came over, "Relax, I've been keeping an eye on, fatty."

"I'm not fat! I'm husky, Skittles!" Jack exclaimed at the rainbow haired pegasus but before the two could get into another argument.

"Uh... whose the floating horse?" one of Jack's gang members said.

"HEY! I'm no horse! I'm a pony! A pegasus pony, bub!" Rainbow exclaimed at him.

"I see you picked a spirited one, my boy.." Ryutaro smirked at his son.

"We are not dating.." Jack and Rainbow deadpanned at him but Midori squealed, "Aww... my son finally found himself someone to love..."

"MOOOOOM!" Jack whined with a blush on his face.

Mason and Carrie, on the other hand, were reunited with the Olena Royal Family. "Elena...." Mason smiled with joy.

"Oh Mason, Carrie, thank goodness you're alright..." Elena said with joy as she hugged the two of them. Carter and Isla cme up to the siblings with tears in their eyes, "We were heartbroken when we thought the worst had happened to you, but now you both are alive and safe and sound."

Hugo, Mason's rival just sighed irritably, "Great, he's back.."

"Excuse me, young man but you should be grateful Mason and Carrie are well and safe." Rarity scolded him.

"And what are you suppose to be?" Hugo questioned.

"I am a unicorn, by the name of Rarity and I would apperciate it if you would treat my Mason with respect..!" she exclaimed at him, shocking Carter and Isla.

"Mason... whose is that...?" Carter asked.

"That is Lady Rarity, she's a very good friend of mine along with the others. And she's.... my girlfriend now.." Mason explained with a blush.

"Girlfriend?" Elena questioned and Rarity came over, "Afraid so, darling. Mason loved you deeply when he was in this world but when a horrible creature named Void said that he unleashed his Virus on Earth, he thought the worse had happened to you." she explained. "When Void turned me into an evil creature, Mason's love helped me break away from his control..."

Elena smiled at the pair as Rarity nuzzled Mason and Mason rubbed her mane happily.

Kaede was approached by her two step-sisters and step-mother. Kaede glared at the three humans who treated her like servant when she was here, but... it softened seeing remorse and guilty faces. "H-Hey... Kaede.... you're.... well..." her Step mother stated.

"Uh... yeah..." Kaede said before the three of them just walked away from her, much to her confusion.

Skye was approached by her parents who were about 6'1. Her mother had red hair that went down to her shoulders and she wore an army green camo shirt with army patterned pants and shoes. Her father had short hair, like Donald and he was wearing army jeans with a lime green shirt as well.

"Skye, our dear daughter." "You're safe." they both smiled as they hugged their daughter, who hugged them back.

Rantaro.... was approached by an adult man who wore a fedora like he did and he had a small beard as well. He wore a white shirt underneath his black jacket and he wore black jeans and shoes as well. He matched the photo that Rantaro had in his phone.

"...... Hi dad...." Rantaro stated.

Rantaro's father, Carl, looked at his son, "H-Hi son.....you've grown up...." Rantaro just nodded.

After that, everyone gathered around and Sarah explained to them, the new arrivals, "These ponies are from Equestria, where Ren and all the others, including myself were teleported to. The four alicorns are Princesses Celestia, Luna, Cadence and Twilight. Celestia and Luna are the Rulers of Equestria while Cadence is the Ruler of the Crystal Empire along with her husband, Shining Armor. Twilight is the Princess of Friendship and these are her friends; Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity and Pinkie Pie. And this is Discord, one of the three fathers who created me."

Ren and the others families were amazed to see the ponies and Discord in the flesh.

"Unbelievable.." Ren's father replied in awe.

"So.... what happened to you... all of you were presumed dead after that explosion at the lab..?" Donald questioned.

"I can explain..." A familiar voice came and appeared Astral Twilight.

"WOAH! Whose the sparkling...?" Ryutaro questioned.

"That is Astral Twilight.. otherwise known as the Tree of Harmony, a powerful tree that keeps control of the Everfree forest in our world. It is also Sarah's surrogate mother.." Luna explained, much to her papas, save for Discords', shock.

"Indeed. After the explosion I teleported all of them here where they all rested for 1,000 years, through to you all it might have been two or three years since then. During that time, I sent Sarah on her journey to spread light and hope to defeat her brother Void and guide Ren and the other humans in the right direction.

Sarah's final battle with Void came and in the end, Sarah destroyed him, making sure his evil powers would never set forth in the world again and Ren and the others, save for Skye, Rantaro and Nicole, had unlocked their hidden powers that the meteorites and Sarah gave to them all.

Together, they all shall finish Void's Dusk-7 Virus once and for all. So that you all can live in peace once more."

"But.. how...?" Douglas asked. "We've tried everything but nothing works against those Dusk-7 monsters. They're too strong."

"Only because they feed off of hopelessness and despair; emotions of dark. Only when countered by the emotions of light; hope and love, can they all be defeated once and for all and your planet shall be free once more...." And with that Astral Twilight disappeared.

"Hope and love...?" Donald asked.

"Two very powerful emotions that can make great good happen." Princess Celestia said. "I've seen the Magic of Love and the Magic of Hope first hoof cause of my niece and Sarah. They both defeated great enemies using their magic and I believe that together with the Elements of Harmony, we can all free your land from this Dusk-7 Virus."

Ren and the others families looked at each other with hope in their eyes now.

"So... how can we spread out that much magic across the entire planet?" Douglas asked.

"Alicorn Magic is extremely powerful, able to accomplish things Unicorn Magic cannot do. Combined with the Elements of Harmony, Twilight and her friends along with Ren and the others shall rid your planet of the virus that has plagued it for so long." Celestia said before she opened her saddlebag and revealed all of the Elements of Harmony.

Jamie's 30 sisters cooed in awe at the magical artifacts as Celestia placed them on their respective wielders.

Donald and Douglas went to the computers and did a scan of the whole planet. "Alright... the entire planet is suffering from the virus, except for our little patch of land.." Donald said. "You'll have the expel a whole lot of magic for it to reach the entire planet."

"Count on it.." Rainbow exclaimed. Twilight and the others nodded.

"Alright then.... let's do it.." Donald smiled.

Sarah peeked out of the hatch door and saw nothing for miles. No Dusk-7 creatures. "It's clear.." she said and she levitated herself out of the hatch and Twilight and all of the others followed, including Ren and the others families and all the other people who had managed to survive the disaster which was about 100 people, excluding the families.

Twilight, Rainbow, Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie, Applejack, Cadence, Ren, Jamie, Jack, Mason, Carrie and Kaede stood in a large circle with Sarah in the center.

Sarah closed her eyes and her Element of Faith glowed brightly and she levitated into the air. Her Element sent out magical lines that attached themselves to Twilight and the others hearts. Twilight and the others levitated into the air as well with their Elements of Harmony glowing, Cadence activated her magic and Ren and the others activated their power.

They formed a large circle in the air around Sarah and they shined very brightly as they were consumed in a giant bubble filled with the Magic of Love and Hope. The large amount of magic spread and touched every part of the world, destorying any Dusk-7 virus infected monsters from the world, restoring the world to when humans didn't arrive on the planet.

Vast fields, forest, rainforest, savannahs, arctic lands, swamps, marshes, everglades. It was all restored to it former glory and all of the animals were brought back to life as well, having unfortunately perished in the disaster. Finally, the crushed and demolished buildings and cars disappeared and the destroyed city was replaced with vast fields and forests.

Ren and the others families as well as the people were gawked at the restoration of their homeworld and the Princesses and Discord smiled proudly as the group levitated down and took a look at the aftermath of their powers.

The people cheered proudly as the blue skies were finally back and their world was finally free.

Sarah and the Mane Six powered down their Elements and Cadence and the others stopped their magic. "Holy crap baskets...." Ren gasped.

"It's like we were never here.... the wide open fields... the forests... we restored it to a time when humans didn't arrive... when the world belonged to the animals.." Kaede gasped, seeing the vast number of wild animals roaming the fields and forests.

"Incredible...." Ren's mother gasped in awe.

"Looks like... we all to start rebuilding civilization..." Donald gasped in awe.

Ren and the others were happy that their world was fully restored to it former glory and beauty.

"So... Ren... everyone.... are you... gonna stay here..?" Twilight popped the question to all of them.

Ren and the others looked at each other.

They finally had their family back and their former home was restored... but... they had another family in Equestria... with Twilight and the others.. there was so much to explore in Equestria.

"How about I just give you nine these...?" Discord smiled and he snapped his fingers and gave Ren and the others special bracelets.

"What are these for..?" Ren asked Discord.

"One touch and they'll allow you to return here so you can be with your families whenever you want to." Discord smiled and Ren and the others smiled. "Thank you Discord..!" Ren exclaimed and Discord smiled. "Of course.." Discord smiled.

"So.... everyone wanna start over...?" Donald asked everyone and they all cheered happily.

Epilogue....

Chapter 3: A Boyfriend for Sarah?

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

Chapter 4: Trade Ya!

Sarah's POV

As we were just arriving at Rainbow Falls, Pinkie couldn't help but squeal out loud from the window in excitement. "Ahhhh! Yes! Best day ever!" She pulled herself away from the window and looked at us. "We're all going to the Rainbow Falls Traders Exchange!"

At that moment, the train came to a stop and began letting ponies out. Applejack was the first one to walk out so she could get her cart out of the way.

Outside, she began making sure everything that belonged to the others was inside of the cart. As for the others, they were able to stretch their legs on the platform next to the train while Pinkie Pie continued to jubilantly talk. "And not just going – we're accompanying a Queen and Princess on an official royal duty!" She mentioned us as Twilight was retrieving her box of books.

"Please, it's not that big of a deal." Twilight brushed off lightly, as well as hinting back at her dislike of being treated more than any other pony. "There always has to be a princess at the Exchange." She explained as we began walking towards the main part of Rainbow Falls. "Last year was Princess Cadence. This year it's Sarah and Me. It's just a formality. I'm sure none of the other ponies will even notice we're here."

We suddenly heard a large cheer of a crowd. On the other side of the tunnel, a banner unfurled before us as confetti immensely dropped from above. "Wow, look over there! It's the prince and princess!" One of the ponies from the crowd shouted out.

"Oh, this is amazing!" Another exclaimed.

The unexpected festivities left mostly Twilight paralyzed in surprise. While I was pretty startled as well, it didn't affect me as much.

"Could be wrong…but…" Applejack began to say. "I think it's still pretty new to them." She mentioned with a teasing and slightly smug grin.

Twilight laughed nervously as she forced herself to place on a welcoming and thankful grin for the crowd.

After managing to share the endurance of all that attention, Twilight and I were able to have a breather once we pulled out of that mess. It was more of a mental mess, not a physical mess, to clarify.

"Hold on a second." Applejack brought up. "You said there always has to be a princess at the Exchange. Why does it have to be the both of you this year?" She questioned. "I thought it would be something like you being this year and Sarah being next year."

"Yeah and Sarah is a Queen so that would mean only you have to be at the exchange." Ren pointed out as well, he was holding some mint comic books in his hands.

"Well, Sarah and I both agreed that we are a team." Twilight almost proudly recalled. "Whatever we're tasked with, we both talk over and make a choice together. The both of us are just as important as each other." She clarified, glancing over to me.

"Ooh." Applejack understood.

"Oh, my goodness!" Fluttershy exclaimed at the sight of what appeared to be a cupid bunny that was coincidentally pointing a heart arrow at both Fluttershy and me.

"You said it!" Rarity exchanged, observing herself wear an elegant hat in a mirror. "The Rainbow Falls Traders Exchange is simply divine. You can get anything you want here!"

"I can see.." Kaede said, looking at a beautiful flora hat.

"If'n you got the goods to trade for it." Applejack made an almost doubting point. Nevertheless, Rarity completed her trade for another hat and joined us back in the group.

Ren and the others had some stuff to trade for the exchange as well and I had my saddlebag with me with some things that I would want to trade. Snowflake, Pikachu and Zoura joined me for the exchange today.

After a few seconds, we heard something small trip and fall, causing us to look back.

"Nooo!" Spike cried out at the sight of something in front of him beginning to make its way to a small muddy puddle. However, Twilight quickly grabbed ahold of it with her magic and returned it back to Spike. "Thanks, Twilight. Whew. One ding, nick or dent, and this Power Ponies comic book wouldn't be in perfect mint condition anymore." He explained his reaction. "And if you want to trade for a mint comic, you gotta have a mint comic."

"That's a fact." Ren smiled.

"That's nice…" I was only able to comment before ponies caught sight of us and began murmuring in excitement, giving us unneeded attention once again.

Twilight quickly trotted to my side, placed a hoof on me, and gestured me with her head that we should get going. Then, she walked in a fast pace while I followed calmly behind.

"I guess a pony who's here on official princess business has to expect a little fussin'." Applejack mentioned.

"I don't really see why." Twilight wondered as she reached her stand and began preparing her books. "I know we're royalty and all, but all we're supposed to do is settle disagreements over whether a trade is fair or not. And since the rule is that a trade is fair as long as both ponies get what they want, there's never been a disagreement. So there's really no reason for anypony to treat us as anything special." Twilight noticed a small little filly that appeared before us excitedly. "Hi!" She warmly greeted. "Can I help you?" The filly grinned brightly and turned to surprisingly pull out a couple of photos of Twilight and me, appearing to want our autographs. This led Twilight to sigh, pull out a quill, and sign the pictures.

"There's a pony here who's got a signed first edition of Daring Do and the Quest for the Sapphire Statue, and I'm gonna get it!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed out loud as Twilight did her signing. "I've been able to get first editions of all of the Daring Do books, except this one!"

Once Twilight finished, she lent me her quill so I could autograph my signature as well. "Nopony's ever put together a whole set, and I'm gonna be the first! If it hasn't been traded yet... It's the only one in all of Equestria!" The filly couldn't help but hug us both before she hopped off in joy.

"So Flutters, what do you have to trade?" Ren asked his girlfriend.

"I did want to trade this bear call I've got for a bird whistle…" She pulled out a small wooden whistle from beneath her wing.

"Then I'll help you get your bear call whistle." Ren smiled.

"Oh, thank you Ren." Fluttershy smiled.

"Meanwhile, I'll help Skittles get her puny book." Jack stated.

"Great! Let's go!" Rainbow Dash quickly grabbed ahold of Jack dashed out of the area.

"Well, I'm off to take a gander at some of the vintage stalls." Applejack mentioned next after pulling her bag out of the cart holding the others' stuff.

"Did you say vintage?" Rarity asked in piqued interest and grabbed ahold of her saddlebag to join Applejack on her trot. "Why, old and rare items are so in style right now! I'm hoping to get a vintage item as well…" Her voice trailed off as she grew further away from us.

"I'm also off to find a nice piece of minty-ness to exchange for this bad boy." Spike held up his comic before walking off happily.

As Twilight removed the last of her books from the box to place on the stand, Pinkie stood behind in a confused state. "Um, shouldn't your Queen and Princessness be headed to the royal box seats?" She asked and pointed towards the other side of the Exchange.

"We may be the Queen and Princess on duty, but I don't think that means we have to sit up there all alone doing nothing." Twilight responded. "Ever since I became a princess, Celestia's been sending me more books to read than ever. The library's overflowing, so I figured while we're here, I might as well trade away some books I don't need anymore!" She presented a reasonable point while placing away the cardboard neatly.

"Mm-hm!" Pinkie happily agreed. "I guess I should go take a look around too! Bye!" She waved swiftly and bounced off.

As Twilight continued carefully angling and perfecting the sight of her books, she turned to me as she still noticed me standing behind her. "If you want, you can go check out the area too. You don't have to stay by me the whole time."

"Well... if you're sure." I said.

"Yes, Sarah, now go.. this'll be nice for you.." Twilight smiled and I nodded.

Snowflake, Pikachu, Zoura and I went off through the exchange to find something that would catch our eyes to trade for. "See anything, you three?" I asked my friends. Pikachu and Zoura looked over the stalls, but didn't see anything that they would like.

However, Snowflake suddenly perked up as we approached the Rare Creatures tent. "What is it Snowflake?" I asked and Snowflake walked inside of the tent. It had some lights in it, showing what was inside of the cages. Snowflake came to nine cages specififcally and what was inside made us all gasp.

Inside the cages..... were dragons like Snowflake...!

The first one was about 30 feet long and bipedal but this one had an overbite, nasal horn, a break like upper beak and a tail covered in spines. It had a crown of spikes on its head as well. This dragon was a teal with tints of pink, purple and yellow on its wings and body and it had a pale underbelly. This dragon was known as a Deadly Nadder.

The second one was also 30 feet long but it had three tails with stingers on them as well as a set of pincers which made it resemble a scorpion. It also had two ear appendages on its head. This dragon was brownish with orange stripes on its wings and a yellow underbelly. One tail was brown, one was yellow and the other was light yellow. This one was called a Triple Stryke.

The third one was about 61 feet long with two pairs of long horns along with double clawed wings, a snake-like neck and a snake-like tail with frills on it. This dragon was a mixture of purple, yellow and magenta and it was known as a Monstrous Nightmare.

The fourth dragon was 31 feet long and had two pairs of wings! It’s face had two long spines that branch off their brow to the side and it had a "smashed" face, kind of like an owl. It also had a three-finned tail and also had many spines down their back and a large "crown" on its head. This dragon was blue with dark blue spots. It has shades of lavender and white on its wings, tail and head and it was known as a Stormcutter.

The fifth dragon was 20 feet long and a bipedal dinosaur-like dragon with small arms and two claws at the end of each limb. It had a short thick neck and a small head. Its upper jaw resembles a beak of a parrot, while the lower jaw is more round and full of small teeth. It had three spikes on its head, which are asymmetrically placed. It’s wings had a claw on each of them. It had only a few sharp spikes on its back, and it has a long tail that ends with a large fin. This dragon was a darker blue color with red patterns on its back, wings, and tail. Its spikes are also dark blue and it is known as a Titan Wing Dramillion.

The sixth dragon was about 66 feet long and had two heads and a split tail. This one was the strangest looking out of all of them. It looked almost like Zweilous only much bigger. This one was a blue-hued green base color with darker splotches over its body and wings. It had a yellow nasal horn and blue leaf-like spines on its necks and back and it was larger compared to the other dragons. This dragon was called a Titan Wing Hideous Zippleback.

The seventh dragon was 60 feet long with purple eyes, a horn on snout, sharp spines and spikes on the edge of wings. It also a long, slender neck, as well as metal-like, reflective scales. It has a long ledge on the top of its snout and a short, stumpy one on the bottom. Its body is covered in metal armor with two talons on each foot. The dragon is completely silver and it was called a Razorwhip.

The eighth dragon was the most surprising. This dragon looked a lot like Winter, but it was jet black with lighter spots and it had two sets of tail fins; one on the tail and the other near the base of the tail. It looked like the mixture of a cat, dog and gecko. It also appeared to have a rougher texture than Winter. This dragon was known as a Night Fury.

"Woah...." All of the nine dragons perked up at the sight of me and warbled happily, "Hey... it's okay you nine, I'll get you out of here.." I vowed to them.

"Ah, interested in those nine huh?" a pony running the tent, who was a big earth pony who was brown with an eyepath over his right eye and he wore a bracelet with spikes on its on his front, left hoof said as he came over to me.

"I found these nine all trapped in nets. They were injured, but nothing serious, so I brought them here to see if anypony would know where they came from or give them a home." the pony stated.

"Well, I would like to trade for these nine, please?" I asked the pony.

"Seeing that you have a dragon yourself, I would say yes, but you'll have to give me something very valuable." the pony bargained and I opened my saddlebag and I levitated a large silver diamond out of it. "Like this..?" I asked with a small smile.

"Woah...." the pony's eyes sparkled at the big gem. "Exactly like that. It's a trade, Miss..."

"Sarah Gem..."

"Miss Sarah Gem. These nine are all yours." the pony smiled before he unlocked the cages and let the dragons out. "Looks like you nine found a home afterall."

The nine dragons cooed and nuzzled the pony in thanks for caring for them after all this time. They came over to me and Snowflake warbled at us. "It's alright, you nine. I know nine people who would love to have you." I smiled at them and they smiled back.

Hehehe.... they're gonna freak when I show them these guys.

The Traders exchange was a great experience for me, cause I got some more things. I got a silver sword with a golden handle, a large heart shaped shield and some silver shoes, like Princess Luna's. Many hours passed until it was time for us to go back to Ponyville.

We all met at the train station where the group saw what I got. "Awesome, shoes, Newbie." Jack smirked.

"Yeah, they look just like Princess Luna's." Twilight added. "And nice sword and shield."

"Thanks, but I got a lot more than them." I smirked.

"Huh?" Ren asked before I whistled and the eight dragons I got came soaring over the train station and landed in front of all of us. Twilight and the girls gasped in awe and shock while Ren and the others gaped, "No... WAY!" Ren exclaimed, "A Night Fury, Deadly Nadder, Razorwhip, Titan Wing Hideous Zippleback, Monstrous Nightmare, Stormcutter, Triple Stryke and a Titan Wing Dramillion!"

"Sarah... where did you get them from?!" Rainbow exclaimed.

"At the rare beast tent. I told them I have the perfect home for them." I smiled.

"With whom?" Twilight asked and I looked at Ren and the Human Nine whose eyes widened. "No way, Newbie.." Jack breathed.

"Yep... these guys are yours..." I presented and Ren cheered, "Awesome! Thanks Sarah!!"

"Now based on your personalities I decided that Ren, you get the Night Fury. Mason and Carrie, you get the Stormcutter. Rantaro and Nicole you get the Hideous Zippleback. Jack, you get the Monstrous Nightmare. Skye, you get the Razorwhip, Kaede, you get the Deadly Nadder and Jamie, you get the Triple Stryke." I explained as the respective dragons went to the new riders.

"Incredbile...!" Kaede gasped, feeling the Nadders snout. The Nadder squawked gently at her.

"This is the best gift ever, Newbie." Jack smiled, rubbing his Monstrous Nightmares' snout.

"Your welcome. It's... just my way of saying thanks.... for being my friends... through all of this.." I said to them.

"Of course, Sarah. You've risked your life many times for us. It's the least we can do." Ren smiled at me and the others nodded.

"So.... are you guys gonna take the senic route back to Ponyville?" Rainbow smirked, looking at the dragons.

Ren and the others looked at each other and smiled. I know the answer to that.

"WOOOOOOO-HOOOOOO!" Ren exclaimed as he and his Night Fury divebombed below and shot back up at the speed of light.

"R-Ren.. c-careful..!" Fluttershy exclaimed holding onto Ren tightly.

Ren giggled, "Relax Flutters, this is fun!"

"Hell yeah!" Jack exclaimed on his Monstrous Nightmare as it lit himself on fire and breathed out a stream of it.

"Hahah! This is awesome, you maggots! Now I really am the General!" Skye exclaimed from her Razorwhip who roared happily for its new rider.

"This is... different.." Nicole said, holding on to the left Zippleback's horns as Rantaro held onto the right horns. "Yeah...." Rantaro stated.

"T-This is great...!" Jamie and Twilight smiled as they rode on the Triple Stryke.

"This dragon is simply divine, just like my Spikey Wikey and Mason." Rarity smiled as she and Kaede rode on her Deadly Nadder.

"Aww... thanks..." Mason blushed as he, Carrie, Pinkie and Applejack rode on the Stormcutter dragon happily.

"Hahaha, who wants to race back to the home-ship?" I called, from Snowflake's back and everyone cheered, accepting the challenge and we all raced back to Ponyville, with our new dragon friends in tow.

To Be Continued...

Author's Note

I know Trade Ya is a Season 4 episode but I decided to put in Season 5 for the reason of putting the new dragons in since they'll be in the story more often.

Chapter 6: T.U.F.F Puppy Crossover

It's been a week since I became the newest princess of Equestria. So far, I haven't had any serious royal duties to attend to so all I did was hang out with my friends. But today, would be different. "Hey Sarah." a voice said. I turned and saw Kodi, Ren, Jamie, Jack, Nicole, Rantaro, Carrie, Mason and Kaede in the living room. "What's with the suitcases?" Ren asked.

"Oh, I'm going to visit my other friends." I replied.

"Other friends?" Kaede asked.

"Yeah, you guys wanna come?" I offered. "But I've gotta warn you this new world could be... a bit dangerous."

"I'm in!" Jack stated.

"Me too!" Ren stated.

"Alright then... DAD, GET THE PORTAL READY!" I called.

"PORTAL?!" Everyone exclaimed. Soon we found ourselves in my dad's lab where a swirling, glowing portal layed. "It's all ready honey." My dad said. "Be careful while your gone."

"Don't worry, old man, We got her back." Jack smirked.

"Come on guys!" I cried and we all leaped into the portal and appeared inside a large room where there were anthropomorphic cats, dogs and other animals typing on computers and filing folders. "Where the hell are we?" Jack asked.

"Everyone welcome to T.U.F.F HQ!" I announced.

"Sarah? Is that you?" a voice came we turned and saw cat with wide, lime green eyes and tan fur. She is also 5 foot 6", excluding hair and ears. She had black hair and was wearing who wore white high boots and gloves. Also she wore a black suit and belt. "Hey Kitty, I'm back to visit." I said as we hugged each other. "It's so good to see you again." she said and then she noticed my friends. "Who are they?" Kitty asked.

"These are my human friends." I introduced.

"O-oh...J-Jamie Watson..."

"Names Jack Yamaki, nice to frigging meetcha.

"My name is Kaede Ross."

"I'm Ren. Ren Loodan and yeah I get if my last name sounds kinda weird...and this is my dog, Kodiak or Kodi for short."

"I'm Carrie and this is my big brother, Mason!"

"Rantaro Wilde."

"Nicole Bonnie."

"I'm General Skye Jones." Skye smiled.

"Well it's nice to meet you all." Kitty said. Then we all suddenly heard a yell and a white dog wearing only a black shirt landed on Jack. "Dudley!" Kitty cried. "You landed on Sarah's friend."

Dudley puppy, Kitty's sidekick, perked up at the sound of my name. "Sarah's back!" he dashed over and hugged me, "I'm so glad you're back!"

"Hehe, good to see you to Dudley." I said. Jack groaned and he got up again. "Hey, what the hell was that?"

"That Jack was my partner Dudley Puppy." Kitty answered.

"Hello." Dudley said.

"What is going on in here?" another voice asked. Coming into the room was a flea standing on a rolling platform with a camera pointing at him and his image coming up on a large screen. By his side was another creature, Keswick. He was tan with tanish hair and a large nose. He wore a orange plad shirt under white jacket.

"Hey Chief, Hey Keswick. Sarah came back." Kitty said.

"Ah, good to see you again, Sarah. And who are your friends?" Chief asked.

"O-oh...J-Jamie Watson..."

"Names Jack Yamaki, nice to frigging meetcha.

"My name is Kaede Ross."

"I'm Ren. Ren Loodan and yeah I get if my last name sounds kinda weird...and this is my dog, Kodiak or Kodi for short."

"I'm Carrie and this is my big brother, Mason!"

"Rantaro Wilde."

"Nicole Bonnie."

"I'm General Skye Jones."

"I'm Keswick." Keswick introduced. "So what are d-d-doing here?"

"I'm just here for a two weeks' visit and I brought my friends too." I replied.

"Two weeks?!" Ren exclaimed. "You're staying here for two weeks?"

"Yeah. You guys wanna join?" I asked.

"Well we're already here." Kaede stated. "I guess we could all use a vacation."

The others looked at each other and nodded. "Guess we're having a vacation." Ren said.

Suddenly, there was a beeping sound. "What's that?" Kaede asked.

"That's our c-c-criminal alert. I'm getting intel that the Stink Bug is on the loose." Keswick said.

"Whose the stink bug?" Jack asked.

"A diabolical bug villain who stinks, duh. It's right in his name." Keswick said. "Because of his rancid smell we drove him out of t-t-town."

"Actually we just asked him to take a shower, but he made a big stink about it and left vowing revenge." Chief stated.

"Well he's back and robbing the Limburger c-c-cheese factory." Keswick added.

"That horrible smelling cheese! Gross!" Ren exclaimed.

"What do say Sarah, wanna come for old time sake?" Kitty asked me. "Can my friends come too?"

"Of course." she said.

"Sweet!" Kaede said.

"Lets go!" Kitty exclaimed. We were all sucked into separate tubes and were placed in the TUFF mobile. Dudley was driving with Kitty in the passenger seat and me and my friends in the back seat. We drove into the city and saw a small red car with Limburger cheese in the back. "Dudley, there!" I called.

"Right!" Dudley said as the car drove past us. Dudley turned the car around and were caught up with the Stinkbug. He was small bug wearing a purple jacket and his sidekick was a pig wearing an apron. "Freeze Stinkbug, you're under arrest for grand thief Limburger." Kitty said.

"And littering!" Dudley added.

"Eighteen wheeler!" Ren cried. Dudley and Stinkbug screamed and swerved to avoid a collision but the Limburger cheese smell was caught by Dudley's nose. "Agh, that cheese stinks and with my super sensitive nose, it's even worse."

"Super sensitive nose, huh?" the Stinkbug said as the car pulled beside us. "Well get a load of this!" he launched his stink at Dudley. I used my magic to create a shield around me and my friends. The stink turned into a hand that flicked his hand off his nose and entered it. "GAH!" the red car drove off. "That's worse than Limburger cheese! It's like bad clams and rotten eggs in August, In Atlantic City!" he sneezed and launched himself out of the car, leaving us driverless! "Oh Dammit!" Jack cried.

"Idiot!" Kitty screamed.

Kitty and my friends screamed as the car swerved off the road and crashed down a cliffside. Luckily, my shield prevented me and my friends from getting hurt. "Hey guys do you smell something?" Dudley asked, floating down with his parachute. "It's burning cat!" Kitty exclaimed.

"Thanks!"

At HQ

Kitty was on a crutch with bandages on her head and leg. Dudley groaned while an ice pack was on his nose. "Nobody told me the Stnkbug smelled that bad!"

"Well what did you expect? It's not like we're fighting the potpourri bug. Boy, I ruin the day he sashays back into town." Chief claimed. The alarm went off again, "I'm getting intel that the Stinkbug is stealing all the sweaty gym socks from a high school locker room. I'm not sure if that's a crime or public service, but head over there anyway."

"But what about Dudley's super sensitive nose?" Kitty asked.

"No problem, just take this close pin." Cheif said. Dudley took the close pin and put it on. "Thanks Chief, I can't smell a thing."

"Good now hurry and catch the Stinkbug! And I'm gonna need that back by laundry day." Chief claimed.

At the high school

Kitty and Dudley busted down the door. "Freeze Stinkbug, put your hands up!" The Stinkbug raised his arms and the stench from him came over to us, actually melting their laser guns. My friends covered their noses in disgust. "Oh man, he reeks!" Mason cried.

"Okay, okay, put 'em back down." Kitty said.

It didn't effect me since I activated my newborn pug power in my nose. Baby pugs can't smell a thing. Good for me! The Stink bug unleashed another stink hand at Dudley allowing him and his assistant to escape. Dudley growled and the hand poked him in the eyes, blinding him and aloowing it to yank the close pin off and enter his nose again. He gagged, "So grass. It's like a hobo with an abscessed tooth driving a garbage truck at low tide, in Atlantic City!" he exclaimed.

"Say what?" Kaede asked.

"Where did that saying come from?" Ren asked incredulous." The stink had turned into a foot and kicked us out the window and in the middle of a panthers game? Huh? Who knew? Anyway, Kitty and Dudley caught the ball and we were all tackled by the panthers football team... well me and Dudley were launched out and Dudley caught the ball in his mouth and we landed on the field goal, earning the panthers six points and the game. "Kitty, we won the game. We're going to the championship!" Dudley cried.

"In Atlantic city." one football player said.

"NOOOOOOOOO!" Dudley cried.

At HQ

"Congrats on the big win, Agents Puppy and Sarah. You both a shoe in for homecoming king and queen." Chief said. Now Kitty was in a bed, supported upward so she could see. The alarm went off again. "I'm getting intel that the Stinkbug had just captured a bus loas of skunks on their back from a garlic festival in Atlantic City."

"Oh come on! That' can't be real!" Dudley said.

"Oh come on!" Jack added. "Does he ever stop!"

"Chief, Dudley's nose can't take another dose of the Stinkbug's stink!" Kitty said.

"Don't worry, just take this car freshener." The Chief stuck the freshener on Dudley's nose. "Go panthers!" he cheered.

We arrived at the scene with the TUFF mobiles laser ready. "Freeze, Stinkbug!" Dudley said.

"And please keep your hands down." Kitty added.

The Stinkbug unleasheed another stink hand and Dudley growled at it. The hand poked him in the eyes again and peeled off the air freshener. It entered his nose and he cried out, scaring the skunks who sparayed Kitty. "AGH!"

"AAAHH!" The shunks sprayed again.

"AGH!" Kitty cried, now she had the skunk smell.

"Oh goodness!" Kaede said.

"Agh! It's like expired mayonnaise in old diaper in Weehawken, which is just a short bus ride from ATLANTIC CITY!" Dudley cried out.

"Oh come on, how bad can Atlantic City be?" Ren deadpanned. The Stinkbug drove his car into a sign, "Sorry, I stink at drivin." he said.

At HQ

Kitty was placed into a large tub of tomato juice. "Oh I hope this tomato juice takes away the skunk smell." she said.

"Agent Puppy, you weren't sprayed by skunks why are you bathing in tomato juice?" Chief asked.

"This is cheery soda, Chief." Dudley said as he drank some through a straw. "It goes great with this tub full of curly fires. Hey! Stop eating them Jack!"

Indeed, Jack was eating his curly fires, "What? I'm been frigging starving since breakfast."

Me and the others sighed. Typical Jack. "Is he always like this?" Chief asked me.

"When he's not threatening people, then yes." I answered.

The alarm went off and the Sinkbug appeared on screen. "Hey TUFF it's me, the Stinkbug, here to unveiled my revolting plan. Combing the stink of Limburger cheese, sweaty high school socks and skunk spray with my own hideous stench, I have created the ultimate stink bomb. Behold the Airunfreshener." It basically looked like an air fresher that you plug into a wall but for.. you know, the opposite purpose. "Once i plug this in a heinous stench will envelop the city, making it uninhabitable for a thousand years. I'll drive everyone away, just like you drove me away. And now to stink up the joint." Using a forklift, he plugged in the Air Unfreshener and a large stink cloud was seen over the city. A wolf news reporter said, "Citizens are advised to run for their lives." and he ran off screen and it image cut off.

"I'm not going anywhere, cause Petropolis is my home, also I just some dipping sauce for my curly fries." Dudley said. "Hey! That's my dipping sauce, Jack!"

"We've gotta stop that stench, but it'll destroy anyone who smell it." Kitty said.

"Wait, I have an idea. If I can give Ren and the others my newborn pug power, we won't be able to sell the air unfreshener and we can defeat the Stinkbug!" I exclaimed.

"Can you even transfer your powers like that?" Ren asked.

"Only onw way to find out." I said. I activated my newborn pug power and lit my horn. I blasted Ren and the others quickly. "So did it work?" Kitty asked.

Ren and the others took a deep breath through their nose, "We can't smell a thing!" Ren exclaimed.

"Yes, it worked. Now come on, to the TUFF mobile!" I exclaimed. Me and my friends rushed to the TUFF mobile and I drove it to the warehouse where the stench was coming from. "Hold it, Stinkbug!" Ren cried.

The Stinkbug turned to us and unleashed a stink cloud, but thanks to my newborn pug powers, it could not penetrate our noses. "Its not gonna work, Stinkbug!" Jack said.

"Our noses are closed!" Ren added. The Stinkbug pressed the button and a large purple stench monster came out. I grabbed the monster and slammed it on the ground, dispelling it. Jamie and Mason got behind the Air unfreshener and unplugged it, making the stench go away for good. "GAH!" The Stinkbug cried. I used my magic to capture him and his assistant as well.

"Nice job, guys, now let's get these two back to TUFF." I said.

At HQ

"Nice job, Sarah and everyone, thanks to you Petropolis is safe again." Chief praised.

"Well we are kinda an awesome team." Jack gloated, receiving a hit on the head from Kitty. "HEY!"

"Stinkbug we have a special smell cell waiting for you at the prison." The Stinkbug was placed in a small container. Other TUFF agents came and took him away. "Just like old times, huh Sarah?" Kitty asked.

"Yep sure is Kitty."

"Hey, how about you eight temporarily become a member of TUFF, you know, until you all go back?" Dudley suggested.

"Us?!" My friends exclaimed.

"Yeah, we could always u-u-use some more hands to help us." Keswick added.

"So.. what do you say, guys? Wanna join TUFF with me till we go back?" I asked.

"Hell yeah!" Jack said.

"You bet!" Ren added.

"S-Sonds like fun." Jamie stated.

"Count me in!" Mason said.

"Me too!" Carrie added.

"As long as it doesn't waste my time." Rantaro stated.

"I just it could be.. fun." Nicole said, adjusting her glasses.

"Alright!" Dudley stated.

"Excellent. Staring tomorrow, you eight will be the newest, temporary member of TUFF." Chief added. My friends all smiled at me and I grinned back. This vacation is gonna get really exciting.

Ren's POV

So me and the others followed Sarah to the dimension of Petropolis where we met Dudley Puppy, Kitty Katswell, Keswick and Chief. After helping them defeat a criminal, my friends I became the newest members of TUFF, until we go back to Equestria.

Now, me and my friends were entering Keswicks' lad where we heard a large explosion. "Agent Puppy, what are ou doing in my l-l-lab?" Keswick asked.

"I'm using my science knowledge." Dudley started.

"You don't have any." Keswick claimed.

"To create something that will change the world forever." He opened a microwave which was hooked up with large, black wires. "A snack pocket that won't burn you're mouth when you bite into it."

"Won't burn your mouth. You man mad, it can't be done!" Chief exclaimed.

"Forget about the snack pocket. Dudley shouldn't be playing with dangerous equipment." Kitty stated. "We're talking about a guy who eats crayons on a daily basis."

"You eat crayons?!" Jamie asked. "Why?"

"They make going to the bathroom colorful. Besides, nothing happened except that scary hole in the air." Dudley said. We saw a large vortex in the air. "Holy!" Jack exclaimed.

"Crap baskets!" Ren finished.

"Oh no! This is terrible! You got c-c-crayon on my lab coat!" Keswick said. There was some green crayon on the lab caot. "That's the terrible part?" I deadpanned.

"Keswick, Dudley created some kind of Internal dimensional vortex." Kitty said.

"It's okay as long as we don't d-d-do anything stupid like touch it." Keswick stated.

"I touch it!" Dudley said. Why am I not surprsied. "I put my snack pocket inside because I am doing science." he used a pair of tings to pull it our. It looked very puffy and real. "It looks so puffy and delicious."

"Like a chocolate covered pufferfish." Chief said.

"What?" Kaede asked.

"That's a super weird analogy, Chief." Keswick commented. Dudley bit the snack pocket but his teeth did not penetrate it and broke off. He throw it on the ground, blasted it, hit it with a metal pipe, and tried a jack hammer but nothing broke it. "Hey, why can't I bite it?"

"Looks like that dimension make thing both p-puffy and indestructible." Keswick said.

"Like a pufferfish in a suit of armor!" Chief exclaimed.

"Okay." Keswick deadpanned. Dudley was stomping on the snack pocket, "There's gotta be something that can open this. I know I'll use the opening robot I created before I made the scary hole."

"What's an opening robot?" Rantaro asked.

"It's a robot that allows you to opened things, like bags of chips or a bank account." Dudley replied. Huh? What the-? "Come on out, opening robot." Dudley called. The robot slammed into the door. "He can't even open the door. Which is sad because it a-a-automatic." Keswick claimed. The door burst opened and the opening robot was blasting everything. We all screamed and rushed away from the robot. "Why did you give it lasers!" I yelled at Dudley.

"I love things with lasers!" Dudley exclaimed back. We were so busy running for our lives that we didn't catch the opening robot blasting a cell holding Snaptrap and Birdbrain and them jumping into the vortex coming out, looking 3D. We rushed passed them and hid behind a private office door. "Oh no, Snaptrap and Birdbrain got into the vortex. Don't let them escape!" Kitty said. She pressed a button and a metal door came and blocked the villains escape route. But the opening robot blasted them, the beams bounced off them and blasted the wall, making a large opening. "Are you kidding me!" Jack exclaimed.

"Thanks again Opening Robot, let's bounce." Snaptrap said. He and Birdbrain ran but then fell on the ground and started bouncing on the ground. "Cool, I didn't know we could do this." Snaptrap said and they bounced out the building.

"We have to stop them, but how?" Kitty asked. Dudley and Sarah rushed towards the vortex and jumped in coming out, indestructible. "Great idea, Dudley and Sarah, you both jumped into the vortex so you could become indestructible and defeat the bad guys!"

"Actually I thought I lost a quarter in there." Dudley pointed out. Kitty and the rest of us leaped into the vortex and came out looking 3D. "Awesome!" I exclaimed. "I look puffy!"

"Eh.. could be better." Rantaro grumbled.

"I've gotta try this." Dudley pulled a random rope and a piano fell down, but it broke into millions of pieces. "Hooray!"

"Oh for you maybe, I spent eight gran on that piano chandelier." Chief said.

"You spent that much on a chandelier?" Jack asked.

"Anyway..." Chief said as he rolled over, "You agents need to find the bad guys, Now that they're indestructible, there's no telling what they're gonna do."

"We're here to tell you what we're gonna do." Snaptrap said. We turned to the large monitor and saw him and Birdbrain on it. "We're gonna steal the invisible jet from the Petropolis Military base. It's right over there." The monitor turned to show the invisible jet, but being invisible we couldn't see it.

"At least I think it is. I'm gonna go and feel around for it." Snaptrap ran off.

"It's the perfect plan, you hear me." Birdbrain said. "Once I'm at the wheel of the invisible jet, it will look like I'm flying. haha!"

"Yeah and I'm gonna use the jets missiles to ruin my moms' day. She playing bridge with her friends, I don't know which bridge their on, so I'm gonna destroy them all." He crashed into the jet's front. "I found it with my face. Good job, face." With that the monitor cut off. "Wow, they're idiots." Rantaro said.

"I told you guys." Sarah stated.

"Guys we've got a big problem." Kitty said.

"And a big snack pocket." Dudley said. The snack pocket was expanding. "Look it's gotta bigger. "

BOOM!

The snack pocket exploded! Oh boy. "What the hell?!" Jack exclaimed. "I was going to eat that?!"

"No, what did it blow up!" Dudley whined.

"Because according to this anything that comes out of that dimension is unstable and will slowly expand until it exp-p-plodes, including you." Keswick stated.

"WHAT?!" We all exclaimed.

"That would have been good to know before we jump in, brat." Jack exclaimed.

"Wait, it gets worse." Keswick added. Oh great. How? "Based on your sizes, if you the b-bad guys explodes you'll level the city."

"Are you kidding me?!" I exclaimed.

"Oh god dammit!" Jack yelled.

"I don't like any of the things you just said." Dudley covered his ears. "I am not listening to you anymore. Oh, I can here the ocean."

"The ocean, that's where puffer fish live." Chief said. Really? We're gonna eventually blow up and you think about Pufferfish? Now that's just plain stupid and rude.

"Keswick, there's gotta be something we can do." Kaede said.

"There is. You have fifteen minutes to get the v-villains and get back inside the vortex."

"Now I can't here either of you. Also my ears are getting hot." Dudley stated. Jack hit him on the head, "Idiot!"

"How are we gonna find Snaptrap and Birdbrain, they're in an invisible jet?" Chief asked.

"The jet is invisible, but they're not." Kitty said. Outside, the window, we saw Snaptrap and Birdbrain, flying the jet. "Come on, if we go to the roof we can intercept them. Come on Dudley." Kitty said.

"What?" Dudley asked.

"Come on." Kitty snatched him and rushed off. "Hey, wait for us." I called and we rushed after them too. We got to the roof and saw the jet. "Let's bounce!" Dudley said. We started bouncing on our butts, "I said that because I knew we could do it!" and we bounced right up to the jet and landed on it. Kitty and Dudley landed on the front window. Jack, Jamie, mason and Carrie landed on the right wing. Sarah, Me, Nicole, Rantaro and Kaede landed on the left wing. "As soon as I find the invisible door. We're coming in there to stop you!" Dudley yelled.

"Not if I find the invisible windshield wipes first." Snaptrap said. He started pressing random buttons. "Did I do it?"

"No, but my blue bottom just got uncomfortably hot, I think that was the seat warmer. Set on high." Birdbrain said. Snaptrap pressed more buttons and suddenly the jet started a nose dive. "AAAHHHH!"

"You disengaged the auto-pilot!" Birdbrain cried.

"Oh man, we're gonna die." Jamie whimpered.

"We're indestructible, nerd." Jack deadpanned. The jet crashed in a clearing outside of Petropolis and we got even puffer. "Oh no, we've gotten puffer, we're running out of time."

We all turned to the two villains. "Snaptrap and Birdrain, we're taking you to the scary hole!" Dudley stated.

"Is that what the kid are calling prison these days? I was just getting with the puffer fish references." Snaptrap said. "Take us if you can, TUFF agents."

Jack cracked his knuckles, "I was hoping you'd say that." Mason got out his bamboo stick. The two charged the villains but they bounced off each other. Jack bounced off a tree and bashed into the villains. "Awesome!!" he exclaimed. He bounced into us, knocking us down. "Ow!" I approached the villains. "Listen you two we have five minutes. to get back inside the vortex, or we'll all explode."

"Woah, woah, woah, woah, we're gonna explode?" Snaptrap said. He covered his ears, "I don't like anything you're saying right now. Oh, I can hear the sewer."

I grabbed Mason while Sarah grabbed Jack, "Come on, we don't have time to lose, let's roll! I said that because I knew I would push you." I pushed them down a cliff and they rolled down it, followed by us as well. We rolled all the way to TUFF and hopped inside. "Good thing we're indestructible or that rock quarry we rolled through would have shattered my pelvis." Snaptrap said.

"Fifteen seconds before you explode!" Keswick exclaimed.

Sarah and I threw the bad guys into the vortex, "Keswick, how soon can we come back?" Dudley asked.

"Let's see, carry the one multiply by the s-speed of light. Uhhh, never." Keswick answered.

"What?!" We all exclaimed. Keswick kicked us into the vortex and we came out and landed in a bounce house. "Hey we're thinner." Kaede said. Birdbrain and Snaptrap bounced over to us. "Welcome to the bounce house, bozos." Snaptrap said. "Word of warning, I threw up in bounce houses."

"Because they make you nauseated?" Birdbrain asked.

"No just to ruin it for everyone else." Then Snaptrap vomited on the floor. Gross! "Do that somewhere else!" Kaede stated. My thoughts exactly, Kaede. Dudley started whining, "This is horrible, Kitty. We can never go home."

"What? So we're stuck here with you losers, forever? That's worse than stepping in your own upchuck and I know cause I just did it." Snaptrap stated.

"How do you think I feel. I'm stuck here with you two morons and no tv." Dudley said.

"Look, we're gonna be here forever, so let's just back the best of it." Kitty said.

Ten Minutes later

Everyone except for Sarah was bouncing in the bounce house, repeating. "We hate you." over and over again.

Ten more minutes later

Everyone was asleep. Me and Sarah looked at each other and shrugged.

Ten more minutes later

We were all looking at the clouds. "Hey I see a rabbit." Dudley said.

"And I see a bear that getting ready to eat that rabbit." Snaptrap said.

"I just want to see a TV. I can't take it anymore, how long has it been?"

"Six hours." I stated.

"Ho long is that compared to forever?"

"Not long." Kitty said. Then everyone except for Me, Sarah and Jack cried. "Wimps." Jack grumbled. Suddenly, the whole place started shaking. "What's that?" Kitty asked.

"It's the bear cloud! It's gonna eat us all!" Another vortex opened and pulled us in. "WAAAHH!" and we were back in HQ not longer 3D. "We're back!" I cried proudly.

"Good job, Keswick." Chief said. He was wearing some trunks and sipping some lemonade. "Although I could have used another hour."

"Well it was simple, Chief. All I did was r-reverse engineer the vortex." Keswick explained.

"I missed you so much." Dudley said and he hugged the TV. "Thanks Keswick, it's goo to be home." Kitty said.

"Amen to that, Kitty." I said. Dudley locked Birdbrain and Snaptrap back into the cell. "Come on Birdbrain, let's check out the shapes on the ceiling." Snaptrap said. "What does that water drop look like to you?"

"Misery."

"I still see a bear."

"I'd say we celebrate your return with some snack pockets. They're s-scientifically made to not burn your mouth."

"You mad man, it can't be done!" Chief exclaimed.

"Yeah, how'd you that without creating a scary hole?" Dudley asked.

"I heated them up in the microwave and had a p-pufferfish blow on them until they were c-cool." Keswick explained, holding up an actual pufferfish. Me and the others winced, "Where did you even get that thing from?" Kaede asked.

"Oh so that's a pufferfish? Then what was I thinking of?" Chief asked. Rantaro face palmed.

To Be or not to Bee

The next morning, Keswick called us all in for an emergency meeting. "Thank you everyone, I've called this emergency meeting of TUFF because-"

"You're all planning my three-quarter birthday party. I knew it. You guys are the best." Dudley said.

"Three quarter birthday?" I repeated.

"You just had a birthday." Chief said.

"That was my five-eighths birthday party will you get with the program?" Dudley said.

"People we have a serious problem." Keswick said coming down the stairs. He pressed a remote control and a monitor came down. "There's a m-mutant swarm of killer bees on the loose." The monitor showed bees wearing outfits like bikers.

"Wait, mutant killer bees?" Kitty asked. "How is that possible?"

"A group of scientists who I have absolutely no affiliation with gathered in the Amazon." Keswick pressed the button showing the scientists and himself with swirly hair and bread, "W-Without me because.. they don't know me." he pressed the button again, "Those scientist sprayed a bunch of bees with a c-chemical formula turning into killer bees."

"Why would they do a dumb thing like that for?" Jamie asked.

"Because they drank jungle water and their brains got all fogged up." Nicole said. "Right Keswick?"

"No, it's not because we drank jungle water and our b-brains got all all f-f-f-fogged up."

"You do know you just said 'our' which places you at the scene of the crime, right?" I deadpanned.

Keswick winced, "I mean how would I know?! Anyway the bees have since migrated to Petropolis and considered the can s-s-shoot lasers from their stingers and pose a threat to everyone."

"Okay, I heard of killer bees in our world, but this is ridiculous." I exclaimed.

"This is terrible. We have to find out what those bees are up to." Kitty said.

"If we're going to defeat them we have to think like..." Chief started.

"Like a bee?" Carrie asked.

"I was going to say a giant undersea squid, but I see where you're going with this. Sometimes I wonder how I was ever put in charge." Chief rolled away.

"How about we ask the wannabee for help, he's on the bulletin board." Dudley suggested. There was a small yellow bee wearing a purple and black striped shirt and had a purple hat on. Kitty pulled him off the bulletin board. "Finally, I've been stuck there for weeks. Now my butt is totally asleep." Wannabee said in a high voice.

"Wannabee, we need your help." Dudley said. "TUFF needs you to distract me while they plan my three-quarter birthday party. I asked for a rocket filled with candy."

"Have you been listening to anything we've been saying?" Jack deadpanned.

"Some of it." Dudley stated. "I've been working on my surprised faces." We all stared at him with deadpanned looks.

"Anway, the killer bees are being lead by someone c-called the Rumblebee." The monitor showed another bee wearing a military like outfit.

"The Rumblebee?!" Wannabe exclaimed. "That's my brother. The one who went the Amazon without me. Ugh he must have been sprayed by those scientists and turned into a killer bee. This is so unfair! Rumblebee doesn't need to be a killer bee. He's already super bad. He's a MONSTER! We need, we need to STOP HIM!" Wow! Someone had some issues. And they say Jack has a short temper. "Count me out. I have to practice blowing out candles." Dudley said. He blew and Wannabee flew back and got his stinger once again stuck in the bulletin board. "Oh come on!" he exclaimed.

"Okay we need to find-" Chief started.

"The Killerbees' bee hive?" Kitty asked.

"Oh I was going to say a good sushi place for lunch. Boy, I do not belong at the top." Chief rolled away again.

"What else is new." Rantaro deadpanned.

"Rantaro, be nice." Kaede scolded.

"I've located the Killerbees' beehive, unfortunately, it's surrounded by a force field that makes it uninp-p-penetrable." Keswick said.

"Not if you're a bee." Wannabee said. "Send me in as a spy. I'll bring my brother down and prove once and for all that I'm badder than he is. yeaaah."

"Speaking of batter, can I get a rocket themed birthday cake. It's gonna go with the awesome present you're going to get me." Dudley said. Me and my friends face palmed. "Wannabeee, you can't do this alone." Kitty said.

"Tell me about it he can't even get himself off a b-b-bulletin board." Keswick agreed. "We need so send some TUFF agents in there with you."

"I see where you're going with this, I go with the Wannabee, you'll have time to bake the cake and buy the rocket. Okay, I'm in." Dudley added.

"First of all, there is no party." Kitty stated.

"Oh really then what's all this?" Dudley said, referring to the party decorations.

"That was you!" I exclaimed.

"And besides you can't go cause you're not a bee." Kitty added.

"Not yet anyway." Keswick pressed another button and large laser with the body in the colors of yellow and black appeared from a hatch in the ceiling. "Presenting my Beedazzler. It can shrink anyone down and t-t-turn them into a bee."

"Why would you even invent that?" Rantaro asked.

"Well I didn't do it on a day while hallucinating on j-j-jungle water, if that's what your thinking." Keswick defended.

"Yes you did, I can see it in your eyes." Nicole stated.

"Leave me alone, women!" Keswick exclaimed.

"Welcome to our world." Jack deadpanned. "Anyway, who else is going with Dudley?"

"I'll go!" I volunteered.

"Me too!" Sarah added.

"Alright then." Keswick said. "Get ready to be some bees Agents Sarah, Ren and Puppy." Keswick pressed the button and the laser blasted us and we shrank down and turned into bees. We still had our heads the same, but our bodies resembled normal bees. "Awesome!" I exclaimed. I zipped around the room. "I'm a bee!"

"Now come, let's take the sting out of those killer bees!" Sarah exclaimed. We flew off.... and hit the window. "OW!"

"Sorry, should have open the window first." Keswick said and he opened the window and we flew off towards the hive.

We flew to the park and saw the killer bees returning to the hive. The force field was down. We all smirked and grabbed three killer bees, beat them up and took their jackets as disguise. We flew into the hive and the force field was up again. We landed and saw lots of killer bees, laughing and flying around the hive. "Now don't do anything to arouse suspicion. Play it cool." Wannabee said.

"Right." I said. Ren nodded.

"Relax." Dudley said. He sniffed the air, "Do I smell honey?" He flew up to the wall and started liking the walls. "Now way! The walls are made of honey! This is awesome!" he continued licking the honey, drawing attention of some killer bees. "I mean bzzzz." Dudley flew away.

"Attention killer bees, the Rumblebees will be addressing the hive in one minute." a voice over the intercom said.

"This is our chance to find my stupid brother, come on." Wannabee said. We followed him and sat among the crowd of killer bees. Rumblebee showed up on a monitor. "Attention killer bees, I am your all-powerful, super bad leader, the Rumblebee."

"What an ego maniac." Wannabee said.

"Hmph, you should see my dad." Sarah stated.

"It's time to unveil my evil plan. Hold on to your stingers. We are going to enslave the world. Behold my new invention, the Stingray." it was a laser in the colors and yellow and black hooked up to a machine. "Powered by the hive's energy core, it will fire enhanced stingers it will turn everyone in Petropolis, wait for it... zombies. With everyone under our control, we'll take over Petropolis and then the world!"

The killer bees cheered in joy and flew off leaving the three of us behind. "That... is... incredible! It's genius!" Wannabee said, earning a raised eyebrow from Sarah and I. "Why did I think I could ever beat someone super bad?"

"Don't worry, I have a plan. We'll let the Rumblebee think you've captured us to get inside the control room. While he's distracted, thinking you've somehow become awesome, you free us and we destroy the Stingray."

"Wow, that could totally work. You are one super smart TUFF agent." Wannabee commented.

"I know and when we're done, I'm getting a rocket filled with candy for my three-quarter birthday."

Control Room

Wannabee brought us into the control room where we saw his brother at the controls. "Hello Rumble!" Wannabee called.

"Well if it isn't my pathetic little brother, Wanna, what are you doing here?"

"Oh just I was just in the middle of doing my own super bad things when I caught these TUFF agents who were planning to destroy the hive."

"Wow, I'm impressed."

"He bought it." Wannabee whispered. We winked at him. "Bring me the TUFF agents." he said.

Wannabee brought us over to Rumblebee and he cuffed to to three sticks in the wall. "Now time to fire my Stingray!" Rumblebee said. He was about to press the button when Wannabee came and hit him with his stinger. "Gah! Wanna, what are you doing?"

Wannabee uncuffed us. "Defeating you that's what?" Rumblebee growled and fired his laser stinger at us. "Lookout!" We dodged the lasers and Wannabee flew right up his brother, colliding stingers repeatedly. Until, Rumblebee knocked Wannabe onto the floor. "Sorry brother, you should have made your own bees nest."

"Good one." Dudley said. "Now it's my turn to be borderline clever." Dudley pulled out a small bulletin board and flew in front of Rumblebee, causing him to get his stinger stuck. "Sorry Rumblebee, but I was getting board by you. Ha!"

Sarah and sighed sadly. "You haven't defeated my yet. Killer bee army, Attack!" Rumblebee cried.

That's when the Killer bees came in and started shooting their lasers stingers at us. Sarah, Dudley and I gathered around Rumblebee and Sarah used her horn to make a shield around us, deflecting the lasers. Good thing that stayed with her when we got skunk, am I right? Anyway, the lasers were deflected and hit the controls making them short circuit and start to smoke. "Lookout, the hive's gonna blow!" Dudley cried. He grabbed Wannabee and we all flew out of the hive which exploded.

At HQ

"Tough luck brother!" Rumblebee said. He and the Killer Bee army were in bottles that were laser resistant. Wannabee flew over, "Great job, defeating your brother, Wannbee. You wanna join us?"

"No way." Wannabee said. Now that Rumblebee is locked up, I am the meanest toughest bee around."

Sarah and I flew over to Keswick, "Alright Keswick, change us back." I said.

"You're gonna find this hilarious. I haven't actually made a machine that can do that yet, but give me a week and some jungle water and I'll get back to you three."

"What?!" I exclaimed. Sarah sighed. "This is why I kept the horn." she used her magic to change herself and I back into humans. She was about to change Dudley back when, Wait. I wanna stay a bee a little bit longer." Dudley said. Kitty came over with a chocolate birthday cake with pink frosting and a rocket on the top, Since you guys saved us from the Killer bees, we decided to celebrate Dudley's three-quarter birthday."

"Awesome!" Dudley exclaimed. Dudley flew up to the rocket and went in, eating it. "The cake tastes great." Just then, "Got stuck on a bulletin board, my butts's asleep!"

We all did a freeze frame together. "Hooray for TUFF!"

Monkey Business

Tonight we were at the a concert for a performing band called the Hunky Monkeys. The name is really weird but to be expected, they're a group of three singing monkeys and apparently they were quite popular here in Petropolis. Kitty was screaming, hurting our ears, "Never do that again." Rantaro said. "I can't believe we're seeing the Hunky Monkeys in concert. How'd you get us great seats, Chief?"

"I blew the entire Tuff budget. Business is useful instead we won't have heat or running water. And instead of high tech weapons, we'll have to use pointy sticks." Chief said.

Dudley, on the other hand, had very different feelings, "I Hate The Hunky Monkeys. They think they're so cool. Just because they have opposable thumbs and they can sing and they're really good dancers and they have their own submarines which they can drive because they have opposable thumbs. I wish I were them!"

Jack sighed, "Oh relax, they may not be that bad."

"Well if you don't Like the band, why didn't you s-s-stay back at Tuff?" Keswick asked.

"It's cold at TUFF. The Chief didn't pay the heating bill." Dudley replied.

"Hey you want heat or Hunky Monkey T-shirts!?" Chief asked.

The announcer came on, "Put your hands together for the tire-swinging sillian sounds of the Hunky Monkeys! Huge banana comes and peels and hunky monkeys come out. Bingo, Bango, Robespierre."

Bingo said, "Aw, this one's for you girls." and he points to the audience. "Yay!" Chief said.

"And the weird old dude he likes us." Robespierre added. The Chief gasps, "That's me, I'm Famous!

(Hunky Monkeys)
Dude, You're A Girl
But That Don't Mean A Thing Cause You're A Dude Girl.
Dude Dude Girl Girl

Suddenly, Dudley starts howling."Dudley, Stop Howling!" Kitty said.

"I can't help it! It's like they're stabbing my ears with musical knives." Dudley exclaimed.

"Pipe Down. I didn't sell the TUFF Space Shuttle in yard sale so you can ruin this concert. I love you, Robespirre!" Chief said. I awkwardly stared at my friends and they just shrugged.

Third Person POV

Birdbrain and his henchmen were in the his helicopter, "Before we carry out today's diabolical plan, I'd like to introduce you all to our newest henchman, Ewe." Ewe was a sheep.

"Me?" Zippy asked.

"No!" Birdbrain said.

"Who?" Owl said

"Ewe." Birdbrain said.

"Where?" Bat asked.

"There right next to the duck!" Birdbrain said. His heachman ducked, "Don't duck ohh!!! On with the plan. While Locating My FaceBeak Status To "Still Unbelievably Single", accidentally discovered a parallel universe where all blue bottomed boobies are perfect." He showed hologram of the universe. "There it it, the blue bottomed boobieverse AKA The boobyverse and once I'm there, I have none of my courage for shortcomings. I'd be able to fly, properly refold a map and sleep through the night without laying an egg. I'd be a superbooby."

"Then how are you gonna get to the Boobyverse, boos?" Zippy asked.

"The harmonized sounds of a band called the Hunky Monkeys create a sonic portal to other dimension." Birdbrain said.

"Really?" Zippy asked incredulous.

"Once I capture them and amplify their sound, I'll be able to cross over to the Boobyverse!"

"Can we come with you?" Zippy asked.

"Well as non-boobies you'll be instantly vaporized so the answer is Yes!" and he hugged his henchman, "please come along."

In the concert, the Hunky Monkey's were still singing

I call you dude cause I don't know too many bigger words girl
Big words they hurt my head

Kitty, Keswick and the Chief were screaming in joy as well as Kaede and Carrie. "Are yo two seriously cheering for them?" Jack asked.

"Girls, always love boy bands." I replied.

"That is a fact." Ren stated.

"AAHH!" Dudley cried. "I can still hear the music. If only I had opposable thumbs, I'd stick them in my ears!"

Jack, Rantaro and Jamie had the same feeling cause they were covering their ears as well. "This is ridiculous!" Jack exclaimed.

"You've never been to a concert, have you?" Ren asked.

"No!"

Dudley grabbed Kitty and Keswicks' shirts and literally stuck them in his ears and sighed in relief.

Well cause you seem like a girl

Suddenly the ceiling burst opened and Birdbrain and his henchman came in on ziplines and grabbed the Hunky Monkeys' "Oh no! Birdbran's trying to steal the Hunky Monkeys'." Kitty cried.

"I've got T-shirts in my ea-ears." Dudley cried. Kitty pointed him towards the Hunky Monkeys.

"Help." Bingo said.

"Help." Bango added.

"Help." added Robespierre.

"Girl." They all said. Ren and Kitty blasted the ropes and they all fell to the ground. "TUFF is at the concert. Retreat!" Birdbrain called.

"Who?" Owl said.

"You!" Birdbrain exclaimed.

"Just the sheep?" Zippy asked.

"No, follow me." He ran and the audience started following him. "Not you! You're the audience." He and his henchman ran away. Kitty and the rest of us walked up to the singing group. "We're TUFF agents and you're gorgeous. I mean, are you alright?" Kitty asked.

"And don't sing the answer." Jack added.

"We're alright thanks to you girl." the trio sang.

"GAH! What did I just say?!" Dudley exclaimed.

"For some reason, Birdbrain is after you guys. We need to take you back to TUFF where you'll be safe." Cheif said. "and cold."

"So we're gonna bring three pop stars to the agency where our girls are going gaga over them. What could possible go wrong?" I said sarcastically.

"Come on." Keswick said. He ran away and the audience follow him. Okay, how dumb is this audience? "Not you! You're the audience. Honestly."

At HQ

"Welcome to TUFF, Hunky Monkeys, I'll install some swings so you'll fell right at home." Chief offered.

"I though thought went broke when you bought the tickets." Kitty pointed out.

"I didn't buy the tires, I took them off the TUFF mobile." Chief said. We looked at the TUFF mobile which fell apart. Really? Just how desperate was he?

"Guys, can you think of any reason why Birdbrain is after you?" Kaede asked.

"Ha probably because we're really good singers and dancers." Bingo said.

"And we have our own submarines." Bango said.

"Which we can drive because we have opposable thumbs." Robespirre said.

They all sang, "Hey."

"Make it stop!" Dudley, Jack, Rantaro and Jamie cried in unison.

"Don't worry guys, we have a h-h-high tech security system. No one can get in. You won't be able to get out unless I let you." Keswick said with a giggle. Jack leaned over to him and whispered, "Tile it down, nerd."

"Ah! The Hunky Monkeys are gone!" Kitty cried. We turned and saw the three monkeys missing. "Yes." Dudley cried. "Uh, I mean what a terrible tragedy for the music business and mankind in general. Who wants cereal?"

"Me!" Jack said.

"Hey, they left a note." Keswick picked up and it read, "Girl and Weird Old Dude, we've been kidnapped by Birdbrain."

"What happened to our high tech security system?" Kitty asked.

"Blew it, tickets." Chief stated.

That's when Birdbrain appeared on the monitor. "hahaha, I'm back!"

"Are you going to tell us why you stole the Hunky Monkeys?" Carrie asked.

"No, I called to report an accident. I crashed my Whirly Bird at the corner of 5th and vanue."

"He was texting while driving." Bango said.

"If you haneous harmonious didn't open a portal to an alternate dimension where I have hair. I would have nothing to do with you!" Birdbrain stated.

"Baaa?" Ewe asked.

"Who?" Owl added.

"Don't start with me!" Birdbrain cried.

"Wait, what was that about an alternate dimension?" Keswick asked.

"Oh yes, I'm moving to the Boobyverse and the sound of these monkeys are going to get me there. Birdbrain out!" The monitor cut off.

"We have to stop him. If someone leaves one dimension and enters another it d-destorys the universe they leave behind." Keswick said.

"WHAT?!" We all cried.

"Please tell that doesn't apply to us!" Ren said with worry.

"Don't be r-r-ridiculous. Sarah's father is way to s-s-smart for that."

"How do you know her dad?" Kaede asked.

"We used to go to college together." Keswick answered.

"You were in college with him?!" I exclaimed in shock.

"Guys, focus!" Jamie said. "How do you know it will destroy another universe?"

"Well the story beings long ago in an alternate universe called Keswakia, which no l-l-longer exists." Keswick said. "But you can;t pin that one me!"

"Actually we can." Nicole said.

"Be quiet, women!" Keswick exclaimed.

"Agents, grab your pointy sticks and get moving." Chief said.

Third Person POV

"We'll never sing for you evil bird, girl." The Hunky Monkeys said in unison.
"I'm a boy bird, and you just did. Now you'll sing even louder!" Birdbrain said and he pressed some buttons on a keyboard and the collars shocked the Hunky Monkeys."Ow Ow Ow Girl!"

"The portal should be open. Where Is It?"

"The GPS said it opened in the middle of Mr Wongs' Chinese Buffet across town." Zippy said.

"Everyone grab a monkey and some tokens." Birdbrain took out a bus schedule. "According to the bus schedule if we take the No 2 Bus at 3rd street, we'll be there in 20 minutes. That is if there;s no construction and we catch all the lights. Hurry we only have till five."

"Is that when the portal closes, boss?" Zippy asked.

"No that's when Mr Wongs' closes. I want to grab an order of shrimp rolls before I blow this dimension."

We were all in the TUFF Mobile when the Chief called us. "Agents, we just received intel that the portal has opened up at Mr. Wongs' get over there and stop Birdbrain, or as fast as you can go on one tire."

"No problem Chief, Sarah replaced them with her magic, Hit it Dudley!" Kitty exclaimed Dudley slammed on the gas and we zipped over to Mr. Wongs' Chinese stores. We all burst through the door. "Freeze Birdbrain. If you got through that portal, it'll destroy our world!" Kitty said.

"As long as I get my shrimp rolls, I don't care. What's the holdup Wong?" Birdbrain said.

"You keep your shirt on, Birdbath!!" Mr Wong, a goose, said.

"I'm going through the portal and there's nothing you can do to stop me." He pressed the keyboard, shocking the singing group." OW!"

Suddenly, Dudley started howling and it started to shrink the portal. "Oh no, you're doing something to stop me. That howling interesting with the bands' harmonious sonic wave!" Birdbrain cried.

"That's it, Dudley keep howling!" Ren stated.

"Like I can help it!" Dudley cried and he howled again, shrinking the portal some more. "I have to go it's now or never for me!" Birdbrain said.

"Who?" Owl asked.

"I'll miss you least of all, Owl." Birdbrain leaped for the portal, giggling."

"Who?"

"Quack.

"Baa."

"Where?"

Birdbrain laughs, but the portal closes, causing him to slam into the gong. "Alright, you did it, Dudley!" Keade said. We put Birbdrain and his henchman in the TUFF van so they could be taken to prison. "Are you guys busy Friday night, I mean, are you okay?"

"Oh brother." Jack groaned.

"We're all good that to TUFF and we know how to thank you guys for saving us." The Hunky Monkeys sang and so we were back at the concert.

(Hunkey Monkeys)
Dude you're my girl but that don't mean a thing that you're a dude girl
Dude dude girl girl
I call you dude cause I don;t know to many bigger words girl
Big words, they hurt my head

"This is our thanks! Front row seats to another concert!" Dudley exclaimed.

"Hey, how come you three aren't covering you ears like the last time?" I asked, Jack, Jamie and Rantaro.

"Eh? They aren't so bad after a while." Jack said.

"I have to admit, I agree, even though this is another waste off my time." Rantaro said. That's when another portal opened. "It's Chieftopia! I've gotta go there. I'll finally be tall!"

"Chief no, you'll destroy the world!" Keswick cried.

"I know, but I'll get to ride the big kid rides." Chief leaped for the portal.

"Dudley, start howling!" Kitty cried.

"Like I can help it!" Dudley cried and howled, closing to the portal. "Darn it, I was so close!"

Dudley was slamming his head on the stage. "Make it stop!" Then he starts to remember something, "Oh, you know these guys aren't back. Oh that's right it's the Hunky Donkeys I hate. I love you Robespirre!" Dudley grabbed the boys and they got on stage, singing and dancing along.

(Hunky Monkey, Dudley and the Boys)
Major attitude
Because no matter what you look like
I got a frank that you're a dude (dude, dude)
Dude
Giiiiiiirrrrrllll

"Well you do have that mustache." Dudley said. We all did a freeze frame with the Hunky Monkeys'.

Humans Unplugged

Jack's POV

Late at night, I was with Dudley who was busy playing a game when the cat brat got in the way, "Look out, Kitty! Seriously, look out! You're blocking the monitor!" The brat blew Dudley a raspberry and the monitor showed a game called Chicken Zombies. Okay really, chicken zombies that sounds so lame and childish. "Game on, chicken zombies! You are dead white and dark meat!" he stated waving the controller, punching the chicken zombies."You can't eat my brain, chicken zombies!"

This is so stupid why I am here late a night you ask? Because newbie wanted me and the gang to stay in case something happens. I would have said no but the newbie pulled her puppy-dog eyes on me. That's the one thing about the newbie I hate, she uses to cuteness to her advantage. Bleh. She's worse than Ren's pegasus girlfriend.

Anyway, the nerd came in wearing a headgear controlling his eyes for some odd reason. "Nerd, what the hell are you wearing?" I asked.

"What d-d-does it look like, Jack. It's a head set that makes my e-e-eyes blink." Keswick answered. Then his werido machine only made one eye blink. "Whoops! I accidentally set this thing to "Creepy Wink", and it's m-mah-making me look a little crazy." he reset it to normal blink. "There. That's not creepy at all."

"Yes, yes it." I replied.

"Anyway, Agent Puppy, you're brain you ne more a l-l-light snack than a meal." Keswick answered.

"Just like Jack's brain." Kitty said.

"Hey watch it, brat!" I exclaimed.

"Jack, calm down." Oh great. I turned around and saw the newbie and the others. That's when a mailwomen, which was a dog came in holding a package, "Package for the Chief." The Chief came up, "Yay! It's the electric salad spinner I ordered!"

"Aren't you getting a little carried away with the online shopping, Chief? You don't even eat salad." Kaede asked.

"No, but I do love to spin it!" Chief replied and he turned on the salad spinner, "WHEEEEEEE!" He got bits of salad on me and the cat brat while Dudley had gotten the high score on his game, "YES! I did it!" he dashes over to Kitty and I who were picking salad bits off of ourselves. "I am now the official champion of Chicken Zombies 2. THE PECKONIIING! When I log in my score, I'll be famous! You know, among a small group of people who don't have jobs and live in their mom's basement!"

Dudley prepares to log in his high score, but static appears on the screen; is shocked: Bird Brain appears on the screen briefly after, "It is I, Bird Brain, broadcasting to you live from space to unveil my most evil plan yet!"

"Who?" Owl asked.

"Me!" Birdbrain exclaimed

"Where?" Bat asked.

"In space! And you all wonder why I hired my new henchman - Duck!" Birdbrain said. Owl, Bat and Zippy duck, "Don't duck! That's his name!" Birdbrain said.

"Hurry up, Bird Brain! I still have to log in my high score!" Dudley stated.

"Oh, yes. Sorry. Um, where was I?" Birdbrain said.

"In space, boss. You just said so." Zippy replied.

"You want me to cut the cabin pressure again?! IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?! Anyway, I'm going to disable all technology on Earth, including electric salad spinners!" Birdbrain exclaimed

"NOOO! You madman!" Chief cried, upset.

"Yes! And once that's done with, I will control all cell phone plans in the world, and here's the really evil part - I'll be charging you all a slightly higher rate with NO family plan discounts!." He laughed evilly. "In a matter of seconds, your technology will be rendered useless, like my henchmen." We saw Owl, Bat, and Zippy outside the ship. "How did you even get out there? I child-proofed the whole ship!" Birdbrain cried and he activated the technology disabling device; power stars to go out. As well as the T.U.F.F Headquarters; power is slowly going out: Dudley, Kitty, Chief, and Keswick scream in terror.

"AAH! I need to log in my high score!" Dudley said before he stopped, "D'URRH! My mind froze! How do I spell my name?! WHAT IS MY NAAAME?!" The power went out, leaving us completely in the dark. "NOOOOOOOOOO!!"

"Calm down, brat!" i exclaimed. Newbie used her magic to create some light for us while the others used scented candles. "Ah, that's better. We're all doomed, but at least the room smells like spiced pumpkin."

"GAAAH! My eyes are stuck open! Oh, I guess I p-puh-picked a bad time to peel an onion!" Keswick said.

"Why are you peeling an onion?" Nicole asked.

"How am I suppose to k-k-know, women!" Keswick exclaimed.

I noticed Dudley's eyes watering, "Dudley, you better not be crying about your high score?"

"No, I just picked a bad time to peel an onion, too. Oh, right! My high score! No one knows I kicked all that chicken zombie butt! I'M NOTHING NOW!" He fell over and curled up into a fetal position. I face palmed. "Crybaby."

"We've got bigger problems. Without technology, the world is plummeting into chaos! Look outside! Cars aren't working, the bridge is stuck, and that plane is suspended in mid-air! What's gonna happen to those poor people when they run out of peanuts?!" Kitty asked.

Suddenly, a rock hits Keswick in the head! "Ow! A rock!"

I caught the rock, "It's a message from Bird Brain! "Dear T.U.F.F, my power is out and I'm being pulled towards the sun! Help me!"

"Why would we help Bird Brain?" Chief asked. Then another rock hit Keswick on the head, "Ow! Another rock!" Kaede caught this one, "Because the only way to restore Earth's power is to fix my device and reverse the pulse!."

"We have to get the power back, Kitty, or I'll never log in my high score! Did I mention I'm nothing now?

Keswick pulled out a chalkboard, "If my calculations are correct, the sun's rays will vaporize Bird Brain in about 45 minutes."

"Well, even if we do recover the device, how do we turn it on without power?"

"I may have something that can help us; a safely made-power source, and by that, I mean dangerous and completely illegal."

"Illegal?!" We all exclaimed.

"Where'd you get something like that?"

"Well, I certainly didn't trade samples of your DNA to an alien race for it, if THAT'S what you're thinking!" Keswick said, defensibly and laughed nervously.

"The power source is in my lab. Come on!"

"Man, things have gone downhill here fast." Dudley said.

"You said it! Things have gone so bad, everyone's paying for office supplies with shark teeth, which is making it very hard for Agent Hammerhead to eat his peanut brittle." Shark tries to eat peanut brittle, but fails. Okay, that's the second weirdest thing I've seen, next to newbie. We all spotted the power source which was an orb with a pink glow in the middle, "There it is!" Keswick said.

Dudley grabbed the power source: traps activate in an Indiana Jones fashion; Dudley successfully dodges the traps, "I got it! It was next to this paper that says "Planet Keswick"! What's that?"

"Well, that's not what the Earth will be called once the aliens take over, if that's what you're thinking!." Keswick said defensivley.

"What?" I deadpanned. Okay, now he's the third weirdest thing.

"You all better get to that ship! Things are getting prehistoric fast down there!" Chief said. In the city streets, there are bonfires lit, everyone's acting like cave people, and a dinosaur is on the loose. Ridiculous, ain't it?

"Come on, Dudley! The power source won't last for long! We've only got 10 minutes!" Kitty said. Dudley grabbed the power source, "Great! That's just enough time to finish heating my burrito!"

"Idiot!" Newbie cried as she grabbed Dudley, he manages to grab his burrito on the way out. We all take the T.U.F.F Shuttle into space to get Bird Brain's ship. "There's the ship!" Kaede called. "Activating, shuttle claw!" Kitty said. The claw gabbed hold of Bird Brain's ship, "Now, let's get this ship back to T.U.F.F! Suddenly, the T.U.F.F Shuttle get's caught in the sun's gravity.

"Kitty, Earth's the other way!"

"I know! We're caught in the sun's gravity!" Kitty said. Newbie, unbuckled herself. "I got this." she used her magic to make herself a space helmet and she teleported out. "Sarah!" Ren cried. Newbie changed into a Monstrous Nightmare dragon and she grabbed the TUFF Shuttle in her claws. She flapped her wings hard and she actually pulled us out of the suns' gravity. "She did it! We're out of the suns' gravity." Kaede said. Sarah took Bird Brain's ship outside T.U.F.F.

"We're alive!" Birdbrain said.

"And you're going to jail!" Kitty said.

"Who?" Owl asked.

"Us! She means us!" Birdbrain stated.

"Duck." Dudley said.

"His name's Skip!" Birdbrain hits head on doorway, "EGH! Oh, you meant the other "duck"." then he falls down stairs from his ship, disoriented, "I hate my life!"

In TUFF, the technology was restored. "Good work, agents! Now, hit that switch!" Chief said.

Dudley hits switch to restore power on Earth "Now, I can finally log in my high score!" Dudley said.

Suddenly, frigging chicken zombies appear out of nowhere. Carrie and Kaede screamed in fear and the nerd screamed too, hugging Ren. "Ah, zombie!" Ren cried.

"We're here to eat your - ba-bawk-bawk! - brains!" a chicken zombie moaned.

"Ah, they're real! How did this happen?!" Dudley asked.

"You made a deal with a race of chicken zombies, didn't you?" Nicole guessed.

"What? No, it's not because I made a deal with a race of chicken zombies, if that's what you're thinking." The chicken zombies surround Keswick, "I mean, RUUUUN!!" We all ran from the chicken zombies. "GAHHH! WOWWWW!" and we did an ending gag with the chicken zombies, Dudley, and Keswick.

After that incident, which newbie, thankfully ended by using her magic to send the rotten chicken zombies away, it was time for us to go back to Equestria. Can't believe it's been a month already. Time flies. "Hope you come back soon, everyone." Kitty said.

"You know we will." Sarah said. "Ready guys?"

"Yep. Let's go home." Ren said.

"Ready, newbie." I said. Keswick activated the portal and we all jumped in and my vision became all white.

POV Ends

Chapter 5: Sarah’s Hearths Warming

Well today was Christmas time again in Equestria and we were all at Twilight’s castle, where everything was decorated for Christmas; holiday lights, a large Christmas Tree, and all other Christmas decorations and all the ponies in Ponyville were present as well. Our families came to Equestria as well to celebrate with us, thanks to Discord teleporting then here.

This was going to be the best day ever!

It was the day before Hearth’s Warming Eve or Christmas, as I call it and my friends and I were looking over the party from upstairs when Sarah and Snowflake came in.

“Hey Sarah, ready to celebrate your first Hearths’ Warming Eve here in Ponyville?” Twilight asked.

“Eh.. I was thinking I might just skip it.” Sarah stated bluntly. We all gasped, surprised. “Skip Hearth’s Warming Eve?!” Spike exclaimed.

“Why in the world would you want to do that?” I asked.

“Yeah, Private Gem, Christmas is the best holiday.” Skye added.

“I just don’t feel like celebrating.” Sarah stated. She began to walk away, but I stopped her, “Wait, Sarah, why don’t you want to celebrate Christmas?”

Sarah’s face turned a bit sad. “It’s a… sensitive subject.” she replied before saying. “I’m gonna go to the library.” then she trotted away to the library.

“Well that was… unexpected.” Spike said.

“Yeah, she looked kinda sad when you wanted to know why she doesn’t want to celebrate.” Kodi stated.

“She did. Didn’t she. Wonder why?” Rainbow added.

“Well why don’t we try asking her again?” Pinkie suggested.

“Pinkie, she said it was a sensitive topic so maybe we should just let her tell us when she’s ready?” Twilight suggested.

“I think Twilight’s right. Askin her now is only gonna make her not tell us anything else. We should lay off of her until the time is right.” Applejack added.

“Alright.” I said. Wonder what could make Sarah not want to celebrate Christmas Kinda of a dejavu moment when Jamie didn’t want to celebrate Christmas with us. Anyway, we decided to go down and start to enjoy the party.

Meanwhile, in the library Sarah was reading by herself with Snowflake by her side. “Oooh, what do we have here?” a familiar voice came. Sarah sighed playfully. “Yes Discord?”

Discord appeared next to her, “Why are you here in this large lonely library all alone when everypony else is enjoying Hearth’s Warming Eve?”

“Christmas… sigh.. Is not my holiday or any other holiday for that matter.” Sarah said.

“Well maybe talking to your friends would help with this lonely feeling, hmm?” Discord suggested. “You do always say tell your friends when something is wrong.”

Sarah sighed, “I did say that… Alright, I’ll tell them.” Sarah closed the book and exited the library while Discord disappeared with a snap of his fingers. She entered the party but she it was too crowded so she went upstairs. She entered a room and sat on a couch. “Sarah?”

She turned and saw the Mane 6, Ren and the others. “Are you alright?” Twilight asked.

Sarah sighed, “Well… I know you all are probably wondering why I don’t want to celebrate Christmas with all of you.”

“Yeah. Did your family not celebrate Christmas or something?” Ren asked.

“No.” Sarah said.

“Did your father not come home for Christmas like Jamies’?” Pinkie asked.

“No.”

“Then what is the reason?” Twilight asked.

“Why celebrate a holiday dedicated to family… when you never had actually celebrated Christmas?” Sarah said.

The group all gasped in horror and shock.

Ren’s POV

Unbelievable! Sarah never had celebrated Christmas?!

“You never celebrated Christmas?! Why?!” Kaede cried.

“Well my papas, mamas and other scientists were all too busy studying me to celebrate. Besides the only present I got was a book, from my papas, so not a big deal.” Sarah added and then got up, “I’m gonna go back to the home-ship. Have fun at the party guys.” and she walked out of the room with her head held low.

I can’t believe it… Sarah never knew what it was like to celebrate Christmas, a holiday where people spread hope and love, through she spreads it everywhere.

“Damn, Newbie’s had a sad life.” Jack gasped.

“Poor sugarcube.” Applejack said. “No wonder she seemed so blue.”

“Yeah, who knows how many Christmas’ she’s missed.” I added. “We have to cheer her up somehow.”

“Yeah, we can’t have her all sad and gloomy on the happiest day of the year.” Pinkie stated.

“But what can we do?” Rainbow asked. “It’s kinda obvious she doesn’t wanna celebrate.”

“We can’t just leave her alone either.” Mason said. I fully agreed with Mason, no one should be alone on Christmas, especially someone as great as Sarah.

“So what should we do?” Kaede asked.

“Well… Sarah never knew what it was like to be loved, right..?” Twilight started.

“Yeah.. and?” I asked.

“That was in your world, but what if we show her how much she’s loved in Equestria!”

Show her how much she’s loved in Equestria…? That could work!

“That’s a great plan.” Jamie meekly smiled.

“Hell yeah! For Newbie, I’m in.” Jack added.

Rantaro sighed, “Normally, I would say no, but since its’ for Sarah, I guess I have to join.”

“I must agree with Rantaro.” Nicole said, adjusting her glasses, “If it will help Sarah then I’ll help too.”

“Yeah! We’ll throw the biggest Hearth’s Warming Eve Party Ever! WAHOOO!” Pinkie cheered happily.

“Alright gang, let’s do it!” I exclaimed.

“Yeah!” Everyone cheered.

Third Person POV

Sarah walked back to the home-ship with her head hanging low. Ponies saw her and chattered about, not knowing the reason why she was so sad on a beautiful holiday.

Nevertheless, Sarah made it the home-ship and opened the door and just walked into the elevator and pressed the button. It took her to her room where she simply laid down on her bed and sighed sadly, “At least my friends will have a happy Christmas… unlike me.” She covered her face with her hoof and sighed heavily.

Ren’s POV

Meanwhile, we informed everypony in Ponyville and our families of our plan to help Sarah and they all immediately wanted to help her, knowing how much she’s helped them and Equestria. Pinkie, Applejack, the Ortega Family and the Earth Ponies would be in charge of the food.

We decided to do a Christmas show for Sarah. Twilight, Rarity, Kaede and Jamie’s families and the unicorns will be in charge of the show and decorations for the party.

Rainbow and Flutters along with my family and Jacks’ the other pegasi will be in charge of keeping the light snow so we would be able to have the party. My friends and I watched as the ponies got to work.

“This will be awesome.” I said happily.

“Yeah, Sarah deserves it.” Mason added.

“You bet. Newbie’s been one big help to us.” Jack added.

“Yeah, she’s so sweet and kind.” Carrie added. “This party will definitely cheer her up.”

I hoped Carrie was right. “We’d better go and check on Sarah, to see how she’s doing.” I suggested.

“You guys are going to see Sarah?” We tuned and saw Twilight and Spike coming over.

“Yeah.”

“Can we come?” Spike asked. “We want to check on her too.”

“Sure you guys.” I stated with a smile.

We lead Twilight and Spike to the home-ship where we found Snowflake on laying on the couch with Sarah by her side. “Hey Sarah… are you alright…?” I asked gently.

All that came out of her was a sad sigh.

“Oh man, she’s really glum.” Twilight said.

“Yeah. Maybe I should talk to her.” Spike said, but Kaede stopped him, “I don’t think so, Spike. She doesn’t seem like she’s in the mood to talk. We should try tomorrow, she might feel better by tomorrow?”

Spike saw, how sad Sarah looked and nodded in agreement. “Come on, let’s give her some space… again.” Kaede said and we all left to give our friend some space.

Sarah… I promise you.. You are loved here in Equestia and we’ll prove it to you.

The Next Day…

It was Christmas Day and I leaped out of bed, ready for the party for Sarah.

Sarah's POV

Zzz....Zzzz.....

Knock Knock

"Pikapi?"

Huh? PIkachu? What's he doing outside the door to my room? Yawn.... might as well see what he wants. I got out of bed and opened the door to find my little buddy, smiling widely. "Pikapi."

"Hi Pikachu, what is it?" I asked the little pokemon. Pikachu smiled and he leaped behind my right front leg and nudged it, "Pikachu Pika Pika.." I think he wants to me to go with him somewhere. "Okay... so where do you want to take me?"

Pikachu smiled and he guided me outside where I saw snow all along the ground. Pikachu and I entered Ponyville and just before we came to Town Hall, everyone, humans and ponies, appeared and said "SURPRISE!" and confetti came falling down, which I knew had to come from Pinkie Pie.

"W-What's this...?" I asked, confused and surprised by the party.

Pinkie Pie and the others came up to me, "This is your Christmas Party, silly billy." Pinkie Pie cooed.

My papas and Tasha came up as well, "We wanted to make up for studying you instead of spending the holidays with you, sweetie. So your pony friends, Ren and the others told us about putting on this Christmas party for you." Donald grinned.

"Y-You.. did that for me..?" I asked Ren and the others.

"Of course Sarah." Twilight smiled.

"You've done so much for Equestria. We figured it was time for us to return the favor and show you how much you mean to Equestria." Rainbow added and I was touched by their actions.

"I-I don't know what to say..." I smiled at them.

"I know... PARTY!" Pinkie Pie screamed and the others cheered happily at her attitude.

(Twilight Sparkle)
Each one of us has something special
That makes us different, that makes us rare

(Fluttershy)
We have a light that shines within us
That we were always meant to share

(All)
And when we come together
Combine the light that shines within
There is nothing we can't do
There is no battle we can't win
When we come together
There'll be a star to guide the way
It's inside us every day
See it now! See it now!
Let the rainbow remind you
That together we will always shine
Let the rainbow remind you
That forever this will be our time

(Me)
Each one of us will sometimes falter
We may stumble
We may fall

But we still have a kind of magic
One that will see us
Though it all

(Twilight Sparkle)
Let the rainbow remind you
That together we will always shine
