I’m Joe Leahy, the announcer. And this is my very own story! This city was once clean, and it had a Freakazoid and Pony Life Billboard. Then, strange things began to happen, and a bat got loose and flew around. And then, some naughty kids came and wrote stuff on the signs. Then, things got really bad. And there were smoking building, and a nasty monkey who came on top of the Chrysler building, and fought a bunch of planes! And then, some ghost pushed the Freakazoid! and Pony Life billboards to the ground! See? That’s my story! Back to announcing, now! Goodbye!
(I’m the network censor, and I object to the previous scene! It’s too scary! Get me Futterman!)

Good day. I’m H.A. Futterman, professor of broadcast standards here at Discovery Family, and you have witnessed ‘Relax-O-Vision’. ‘Relax-O-Vision’ Is a.... ‘Relax-O-Vision’ is a process that inserts calming, mirthful images into scenes that might be too intense for the kiddos watching at home. For example, Joe Leahy’s extremely...Joe Leahy’s extremely violet introduction story was replaced by a soothing scene of fishes as they think their happy, little, pleasant thoughts. Now settle back...Now, settle back, and get ready to enjoy the first ever fanfic produced in calming, safe, kid-friendly ‘Relax-O-Vision’.
It was a beautiful night in Ponyville. Everything was quiet. Too quiet, actually. In fact it was so quiet, that it was waiting for something terrible to happen! However, a violet alicorn...namely, the Element of Magic, Twilight Sparkle was busy doing a deep scan of the skies, outside Sugarcube Corner, the home of Pinkie and the others. She was gazing at the stars through her telescope. It was a perfect night to do that, because the night sky was clear, and the stars were out.
She saw various constellations and star shapes through her telescope, and marveled at them. She saw hearts, swirls, a cupcake, and Pinkie about to eat that cupcake. She was amazed upon gazing at their beauty.
Just then, she saw a pink dot materialize out of nowhere.
(Bum! bum! buuuuuuum!)
The dot started to get bigger, and was glowing brightly in the sky. Twilight was unsure of this, as she saw it. “Hmm. That's not right.” she said, confused. “Nothing ever shines in that area.” she checked her books for any information on this pink dot. But so far nothing.
“It's just a void.” She said to just herself. “It's probably nothing, Twilight.” She giggled nervously, and looked in the telescope again. This was not a joke. There really was a pink dot! And it was about to get closer and closer to the land that Twilight was on! She gasped. “It's really there!” She cried out. “And it's headed straight for Ponyville!”
Unknown to her, the ‘pink dot’ that was hurtling to Equestria was actually a comet. And, it was a special kind of comet called the Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet! Legend said that when the new moon wanes on the eve of Indigo Summer, it would return, bringing pure joy. Before it arrives, a current of sugary crystal morsels would float by, making the sky a pastel, multicolored light show. And it's traditional to celebrate its passing by throwing a festival, so everypony who witnesses the comet will have one special wish come true.

Stick to the story, already! We came here for a crossover fanfic, not an astronomy lesson!
Okay, okay! Geez, I was JUST revealing a crucial point for Season 2!
Well, don’t! You’re just going to spoil the season, and not give Twilight anything to do! So, just get back to the story, and drop the whole thing!
Fine! I will! Geez, what a bunch of backseat drivers! Of the top of my head, what do you want from me? Back to our story! Something was out there!
Twilight had just discovered the comet hurtling down toward her hometown, and was frightened upon seeing it. Ponyville was in danger! And she had to be the one to save it! The only problem was, she didn’t know how to save it.
She looked into her telescope and saw a message on it. She could barely make out what the message on the comet said, but she managed to read it. “Dear Twilight, If you’re reading this, I am coming down to Equestria, to crush your town. Come get me if you dare!” she wondered seriously why the comet told her to ‘come get it if she dared’. She pondered it, deep and hard.
At that moment, a blue colored, hot rod-like super car dove over to Ponyville, over to Twilight. Inside the car, the window lowered down to reveal a human with blue skin. His clothes were a red jumpsuit with a black circle on the chest which contained a yellow ‘F’ and an exclamation point. His feet had white boots while his hands had white gloves. To finish off the look, a black face mask appeared on his face, just as his hair was black, a white streak going through it. It was Freakazoid! And, he wondered about this strange new pink dot as well, upon driving up to the alicorn.
“Hey, Twilight!” Freakazoid said, waving a couple of coupons to her. “I’ve got a two-for-one coupon deal at the mud baths. You wanna go?”
Upon hearing this, Twilight immediately shifted to excitement, as she saw those coupons. “WOULD I EVER!!!” she shouted in sheer excitement, as she raced into the freakmobile!
https://i.
At the mud baths, Twilight and Freakazoid were lounging out in the relaxing, warming mud vat, which was rejuvenating their nerves.
“You know that message about what was on that Pink dot?” Twilight asked, getting back on track to the subject. “It could be a clue as to what that comet could be doing here.”
“By golly, Twilight...YOU’RE RIGHT!” Freakazoid said, as they both snapped back into focus. “Where’s our towels?” He looked around of them.
“Ah, no time for that, now! We’re off!” Twilight said, as she and her superhero friend stepped out of the mud baths, and to action!
https://i.
Twilight Sparkle and Freakazoid both arrived outside Sugarcube Corner, and over to a nearby hilltop where the comet was first spotted. They were ready to face it head-on!
A voice spoke out to them. “Attention, Freakazoid and Twilight Sparkle!” The voice said. The two heroes looked to see that the voice was coming from the Comet. They both gasped in shock. Twilight was more frightened than Freakazoid was. “This is the Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet!”
“That must be the ‘pink dot’ you discovered, Twilight!” Freakazoid said to her in realization.
“Right where I saw that message through my telescope!” Twilight said, more nervous than ever.
“And, it can...talk?!” Freakazoid asked in shock.
“That’s right, You two!” The Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet told them. “I CAN indeed talk!”
“Okay, we’re here!” Freakazoid said seriously to it. “What do you want?”
“I want...to challenge you two to a fight!” The comet said to them. “Using my ‘Kinetic Cosmic Cotton Candy energy’, I have led you both to your doom!” It drifted closer to the two, as they were both nervous. Twilight was feeling a little skittish, and Freakazoid was a little scared, too.
“Oh, no! A trap! A terrible trap! What will happen next?! Aaaahhhh! Is there no escape? Can they ever—?” The alicorn and hero looked at the narrator peeved. “Sorry.”
“Joe?!” Freakazoid asked shocked and stressed. “Joe, you’re the announcer! You can’t give away sneak peeks of what hasn’t happened yet!”
“Well, I hear things, and I thought I could help because...” Joe the announcer said to them off-screen. “...maybe, you gut replace me with the announcer from Earthworm Jim.”
“Listen, buddy!” Freakazoid said to the fourth wall...or rather, the narrator. “I’ve got enough problems without you being soft on us! So, you stick to announcing, and I’ll stick to our story. Okay?!”
“Well, excuse me for trying to give away plot points on your show!” Joe Leahy said to them, stressed.
“You heard him! Can the attitude, and cut the crap, Leahy!” Twilight shouted at him angrily. “You dumb whoever-you-are!”
“Okay, fine!” Joe said off-screen to them. “And, I’m not dumb!” The heroes diverted to their attention from the announcer over to the comet.
“OH!” Twilight yelled out in shock. “Oh, listen to the big comet man say such nasty things!”
“Ol’ Comet Face doesn’t scare me! I’ve handled worse!” Freakazoid said, as he spat on his hands, then groaned in disgust. “Why did I spit on my own hands?!”
“Well, then...” The Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet said to them, boldly. “Let the game begin!”
Twilight started to recoil from her fear, as the comet began hurtling toward them! “Is this part of the new moon rising?” The freak asked her.
“I don’t think it happens usually when there’s a talking pink cosmic comet heading for you, and trying to kill you!” Twilight said, nervous.
“So what you’re telling me is that this isn’t part of the new moon?” He asked.
“No.” Twilight answered. “Somehow, this is the first time I’ve ever seen anything like it.” She scanned her books. “It’s not in any of the books I read!”
“So, it isn’t part of the constellations either.” Freakazoid answered.
Twilight face went from nervous to angry and serious. “I’ll bet Discord had something to do with this!” She said, snarky. “When stop that thing and get to his dimension, BOY, are we going to make fun of him! Nice antlers, Discord! What size are they, pumpkin sized? Could you please widen the door?” She asked, poorly imitating Fluttershy’s chaotic crush. “I can’t fit through with my big, chaotic, brainy head!”
I have an important announcement! But, I’m not going to make it! I wouldn’t want to be accused of padding my part!
“Look, Twilight, we got to figure out how to beat that thing!” Freakazoid told her urgently. “Why don’t you sing a song?”
Twilight closed her eyes, and started to sing as the background started to turn blue and she danced.
“Am I blue?
Am I blue?
Ain’t these tears in my eyes telling you?”
However, Twilight was picked up by the cosmic comet’s power tractor beam, and she screamed in horror as she was high in the air. “You oughta pay more attention instead of just doing your little skits!” Freakazoid called out to her as he saw her.
The comet continued to lift her up into the stratosphere, until it dropped her from the ground. Twilight screamed as she was in free fall. “Freakazoid! Catch me!” She called out from above. “I don’t want to fall! Look up and catch me!” The blue superhero looked up, and saw the alicorn falling. He was frightened, as he raced over to catch her. “Freakazoid, look up and catch me!” She wailed. “Freakazoiiiiiid!”
He tried to go to where she would likely fall to the ground, and held his arms out to catch her. But, it was hard for her to stay in one place when falling. She was plummeting to her doom, screaming as she was about to get splattered!
https://i.
She was caught in the superhero’s arms. “Twilight, are you okay?” He asked her.
Twilight landed from his arms, and onto the ground, rubbing her flank. “That tingled my bottom!” She said, imitating him.
The two heroes saw the comet coming to them, and started to run toward it, and then jumped over it. “Ole!” They shouted, as the comet rammed into the fountain statue. They both landed, as the fountain statue started to fall on top of them. Twilight got out of the way, but Freakazoid got squished under the statue.
“FREAKAZOID!!!” Twilight screamed in horror.
https://i.
However, Freakazoid came out, unharmed. But, he was stuck underneath all that stone. The Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet saw, and smirked devilishly. “Just what I like!” It said. “Pancakes a la Freak!” It started to zoom over to him.
Twilight rushed over to help him out. “It’s okay, Freaky.” She said. “I’ve got you!” But, the comet zoomed closer and closer, as it was nearing its target!
https://i.
The two heroes were thrown violently onto the pile of rock, but got back up quickly. The comet was ready to have another go, as it zoomed toward them. However, Freakazoid picked up a rock and started to run toward him, while Twilight joined him, with her magic at the ready. They screamed as the two heroes and one cosmic entity started to collide!
https://i.
The two got back up from the ground as the comet was shining brightly toward them. “Such mere child’s play.” He said, yawning and teasing them. “Perhaps, I’ll just finish you off!” He fired a myriad of beams right at them, as the two heroes tried to dodge them every which way. It was getting overwhelming for them, however.
“Can nothing stop this thing?!” Twilight asked stressed and worried about all this!
Freakazoid was about to react when, he got a tingling from his tights. “Whoo hoo!” He said, wildly grabbing them, making Twilight freak out even more. “Sorry, Twilight.” He apologized quickly. “It’s my pager! I have it set on vibrate my bottom!” He reached into his tights, and got out his pager. “Hello?”
“Hey, Freakazoid!” the voice answered. He knew that voice. It was his pal. Sgt. Mike Cosgrove.
“Oh hi!” Freakazoid answered happily, turning to Twilight. “It’s my buddy, Cosgrove.” Twilight was still a little stressed, and worried that he wasn’t sticking to this mission right away. She nodded ‘no’, and pointed to the comet to get back on track.
He turned back to him on the phone. “You wanna get donuts?” Cosgrove asked.
“I like to, but we’re kind of in the middle of something.” He warned his buddy urgently.
“Okay, maybe later.” Cosgrove answered on the phone. “By the way, there’s a big, glowing pink comet in the sky. I’d take care of it, if I were you.”
“Okay. Thanks!” Freakazoid hung up, and got back to the mission. He tried to dive for the comet, but it got ready and produced a laser-like flyswatter beam, and started to whap the blue superhero back to the ground.
https://i.
Twilight flew over to him, and that was when the comet whipped out an array of laser blasters, swatters, and even a bazooka. They were both frightened, as the cosmic entity was ready to strike at them.
“Had enough?” He asked them.
“Oh, we’re just getting started!” Twilight said, smirking as they got ready to charge at it. “Let’s get it, Freakazoid!”
The atomic boy nodded as the comet started to take a myriad of cosmic laser blasts at them. But, however, Twilight jumped up, and landed on a rooftop and fired at it with her magic while Freakazoid shot it with a laser gun!
https://i.
Their combined blasts somehow made the Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet overwhelmed, and altogether, it exploded into cotton Candy particles that fell on the floor. It was raining sweet victory as they had successfully saved Ponyville!
“It’s nice.” Freakazoid said. “But, my favorite fireworks are the ones that are smoke bombs, and those little crackly things that turn into snakes when you throw them on the ground.”
Twilight paid no attention as she saw the cotton candy particles fall on the ground like rain, and she smiled hugely and jumped for joy! “Hooray!” She cheered. “We saved Ponyville!”
“Yes, we sure did!” The hero agreed.
Just then, Twilight stopped jumping and started to ponder something. “Though, one thing still bothers me...” she said.
“What’s that, Twilight?” Freakazoid asked her quizzically.
“If that comet was coming right down to Ponyville through the cosmos, how come it was able to talk?” She asked. Freakazoid even pondered that as well. How WAS the comet able to talk, when usually comets don’t talk?
At that moment, a golf cart with a laser blaster on its top rode through the town, and over to the two superheroes. And in the golf cart, was a Big-Brain-headed guy in a lab coat, laughing evilly. He stopped the cart and came over to them. “Freakazoid, You’re always hanging around.” He said, letting out a chuckle.
The two heroes were shocked, as they instantly knew who he was. “LOBE?!” They both asked in shock.
“You’re the one who planned this whole ‘Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet’ thing out?” The freak asked, still in his state of shock.
“That’s right, you two!” The Lobe said, smiling. “Using my atomic demoleculizer, combined with my planetary projector, I was able to create the comet to mark my plot to destroy the universe!”
“Why?!” They both asked.
“The perfect plan!” The Lobe said to them. “I was able to create the Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet to get your little purple winged-horn pony runt scared, and I was about to fill the world in a blinding ray of lethal pink Ultraviolet UV rays, to give the people...and ponies not only such a breathtaking sight to see, but to also bathe them in harmful sunburns! It’s quite complicated, really! I had to reverse the polarity of my demoleculizer to that of the atomsphere from outer space. I guess it’d take only a true genius to understand that, but then again, you wouldn’t because you’re too dumb to even understand the whole process. Then, I was about to make Equestria into a living, fiery ball for the Earth’s core, rendering it a destructive force to end the world, and you guys with it! I was about to get the energy from the sun, but we didn’t want too much fire to destroy the Milky Way, could we? So, I did the next best thing: Pixy dust! Using the dust, I was able to create the appearance of the comet, and use my microphone to give it a voice, and also show it as a hologram to scare or amaze many of the public into thinking they would get a once-in-a-lifetime special event! Also, slowly but surely...”
Freakazoid and Twilight both looked at each other while the villain was rambling on about his latest plan, and got angry as they grabbed the Lobe by the arms as he was revealing his plan for the comet, and dragged him away.
https://i.
The Lobe was laughing evilly after he wrapped up his explanation for his evil plan, only to find out that he was strapped to a rocket ship. He gasped. “No!” He said in horror as the rocket started to lift off the ground, and into the sky. “NOOOOO!” The rocket exploded into fireworks that illuminated the night sky as the two heroes stood by and watched.
The Lobe fell down to the ground, covered in smoke, and feeling tired. “This is my most humiliating defeat.” He said to the fourth wall before he fainted to the ground.
Twilight saw the whole thing with the big-brained villain go down. And she was so ecstatic, that she could howl with excitement, as she jumped up, and clicked her heels in victory! “We did it!” She said in sheer happiness.
“See, Twilight?” Freakazoid asked her. “You don't have to stick with the story when you've got comedy.”
“You're right, Freakazoid.” Twilight agreed with him. “The plot can be an after-thought.”
“All’s well that ends well, huh?” The freak said excitedly. “I guess that alone got a bang out of cosmic proportions!” They both shared a laugh.
Twilight lept into his arms. “My hero!” She said, as she looked dreamily at him, as they were about to kiss. She then stopped the moment abruptly. “Waitaminute!” she realized. “Don’t you have a girlfriend?”
Freakazoid gasped in realization as he heard that. “Aw, nut bunnies!” He said. “I literally forgot I had Steff as my girlfriend!” He started to pound himself in the head. “I’m such a big dumb head!”
“Yeah, I figured you did because you know, she is loony-swoony over you!” Twilight said, jokingly.
“Yeah, well you are too!” Freakazoid said, giggling as he nudged her playfully.
“As long as I’m in your arms, how about I just nuzzle up to you, instead?” Twilight asked seductively, and smiling at him.
“Sure! Of course!” The hero said happily.
“MMMMMM.” Twilight said, as she started to nuzzle up to her sidekick and enjoy this tender moment.
https://i.
“Wait! Hold it! Go back! Enough!”
Twilight Sparkle lifted the segment up as she and Freakazoid both approached Joe Leahy, the announcer! “Hey, pal! We’ve had just about enough of this ‘Relax-O-Vision’ thing!” She said sternly to him.
“Oh, yeah?” Joe asked, jokingly. “What are you going to do about it?” Twilight and Freakazoid both answered by getting their fists ready to punch the announcer, making him regret ever asking the question.
The two punched him tastefully. “Ow! Oh, ouch! ow!” Joe said in pain as they both punched him as the Relax-O-Vision fish scene played through the violence. “Hey!”
https://i.
https://i.
Twilight returned home to Ponyville, and went to the library, happy about her latest victory with Freakazoid, defeating the Lobe and the fake ‘Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet’. She took in a happy deep breath, proud of what she did today, as she saw her friends going through an astronomy book!
“Hi, girls!” Twilight said happily, as she waved to them.
The Mane Five saw their friend and waved back at her. “Twilight!” Rainbow Dash said in excitement. “Come over here! You won’t believe what we just found earlier!”
“Take a look, Darling!” Rarity said, gesturing her friend to come forth, as she did. She came and saw her friends looking at a pink dot in the book, just like the one Twilight saw.
“All right.” She said, jokingly. “What did you find?”
“It’s right here!” Pinkie said, pointing to the picture of the comet. “Read this!” Twilight saw the words on the page and started to read.
“When the new moon wanes on the eve of Indigo Summer...” she gasped. “That’s a once-in-a-lifetime event...the Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet will return.” She read.
“Fear not its mysterious radiance, as it will bring pure joy.” Rarity continued.
“Before it arrives, a current of sugary crystal morsels will float by?!” Rainbow Dash added.
“The sky will become a pastel, multicolored light show.” Pinkie read on in glee.
“And it's traditional to celebrate its passin' by throwin' a festival.” Applejack read too.
“So everypony who witnesses the comet will have one special wish come true.” Fluttershy squealed in excitement. “Twilight, you've made an amazing discovery!”
But, as Twilight heard her friends read it, and say that she made the amazing discovery, she felt her stomach do violent somersaults, and wished she hadn’t read any of the information her friends provided her.
“Uh...” Twilight started.
“I know, right?” Pinkie asked her. “Now, I can make various new additions to my cupcakes!” She noticed her friend feeling sick to her stomach. “Uh, Twilight, are you okay?”
“What’s wrong, Darling? Are you sick?” Rarity asked worriedly.
"Aren't you proud of this discovery?” Applejack asked calmly and smiling. “This is exciting for you!”
“Yeah! Shouldn’t you be super excited?” Rainbow asked her curiously.
“What’s going on, Twilight?” Fluttershy asked her, as her friend just gave an inaudible groan. Twilight was so nervous, that she wanted to lie. But, seeing as her friends were there. She just couldn’t talk her way out of this one. She had to tell the truth.
“Uh, that would be cool...” Twilight said, nervously, sweating with fear, and smiling scared-like. She took in a deep breath and exhaled. “...except the Cotton Candy Comet has just been destroyed.”
Everyone else gasped in horror upon hearing that. Did they think their friends had flipped her lid? “WHAT?!” They all cried.
“Who would do such a thing like that?” Rarity asked in shock.
“Uh, that would be me.” Twilight said, smiling sheepishly. “...and Freakazoid.”
“Oh, Freakazoid!” Pinkie cried in excitement. “How’s he doing...wait. You both destroyed the Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet?! I don’t believe it!”
“Well, then why can’t you put it back together in one piece?” Rainbow asked her. “No one would notice.”
“I...I can’t.” Twilight answered, hanging her head down low. “Much as it pains me, I had to destroy the comet from marking the end of Equestria, because the Lobe was using it to end the universe.”
“Why, for pony’s sake?!” Applejack asked, now angry at Twilight.
Twilight jumped up, and shouted at them in the calmest way possible. “Because I had to, okay?” She said. “Because Superheroes always have to save the world from danger, no matter what! OKAY?!” She panted a few breaths, before landing on the ground.
“Shame on you, Twilight for being so rude and destroying what could have been a special once-in-a-lifetime event for everyone to see!” Applejack scolded her. Twilight saw her friends, who were all mad at her and they had menacing looks that could kill even a baby parasprite. Applejack pointed to the door, to show her friend out. “Get out of here!”
“Hey, I’m sorry...” Twilight started to say, sadly.
“Go on!” Applejack said to her. “Boo on you! BOO ON YOU!”
“Yeah!” The rest of the Mane Six said, as they gave her death glares. Twilight took one last look at her former friends, before slowly, but sadly walking out of the library. She started to sniffle and cry as she walked out.
As their ex-friend walked out, Rainbow Dash shouted. “I don’t know WHY you even did that either!”
https://i.
Twilight took a sad trek through Ponyville, her head and arms drooped. As she walked, behind her were crowds of ponies booing her like an angry mob. They shouted at her and thrown all kinds of food at her. Twilight was pelted with tomatoes, pies, lettuce, and other vegetables of some kind. The entire town was in a furious uproar when she blindly destroyed the Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet, and what was worse...even her friends were mad at her. But, she had tried to save her hometown! How could everything go wrong for her?
She hoped they would understand. But, they didn’t when she explained what she had done. The angry mob continued to boo her as she walked out of town. It was a sad day for her, as she not only destroyed the comet, which led to no cosmic wishes or a festival at all...but she was also exiled from Ponyville, the town she grew up in! Worse for her...she even lost all her friends as they too banished her from the town as well. She sobbed as she left, with the mob giving her a hard time.
Choking back her own sobs, Twilight picked a direction walked slowly to an alley where the mob emptied out. Should she go find Spike? He might understand. Or maybe he wouldn’t once she would explain what she had done. She couldn’t spoil it for him too!
As she walked in the alley in the outskirts of her town, a few tattered newspapers hit her as she walked. She grabbed one which read, “TWILIGHT SPARKLE ABANDONS PONYVILLE!” A few more newspapers hit, as Twilight saw another headline, “UNICORN DESTROYS ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME COSMIC CELEBRATION FOR THE WHOLE TOWN!” Even more newspapers covered her up like a mummy, as she took one off her face, and saw yet another headline, “TWILIGHT SPARKLE, WHY?!”
Twilight hung almost her whole body down in defeat as she was out of town, and she was whacked by elderly ponies along the way, and a few ponies at restaurants closed the window in her face. She sadly, and slowly walked into a vacant park, and sat down nearby one of the trees, alone and feeling empty. Her knees were bent up, and her arms were crossed. She looked down as Johnny Mathis off-screen sung a song about her exile as this happened.
“Twilight Sparkle, you wander...
A pony without a home.
Everywhere, they hate you...
You’ve been cast out! You’re alone!
Your deeds have been forgotten.
The world’s a cold, cruel place.
It’s tough to go on living when you cannot show your face.
We’ll be right back!”
Twilight sat by one of the trees in the park, her sadness starting to subside as she took out a newspaper article and saw the cotton Candy Comet on the front page. “Cosmic Cotton Candy Comet”, she said to herself. “Some event that turned out to be! What a laugh!”
She laughed really goofy-sounding as she flapped her arms, and even walked with her hands, with her legs spread out! She returned to her tree and saw the article one last time. “I’m nothing but a failure!” She ripped the article into countless shards and tossed them into the wind, as they blew away.
She then heard a voice as her ears perked up. “I thought I’d find you here!” Twilight turned to see Freakazoid coming right to her side, to comfort his sad, little friend.
Twilight just looked down. “If you’re trying to cheer me up, it won’t work.” She said sadly.
The blue freak put his hand on her shoulder, in a comforting manner. “Hey, look. I know it’s been really hard on you.” He said to her. “Even, I had something like this happen to me before!”
Twilight looked up at him and was shocked as if she’d seen a ghost. “You...you did?” She asked.
“Sure.” He smiled at her. “In fact, you’re not the only one this has happened to. Even I have let many people down! But, I still got back in the game, and they adored me still!”
Twilight smiled, but then shifted to sadness, as she cried in his arm. “We saved Ponyville from utter destruction, but I got banished, even when I saved them. I’m a failure!” She wailed.
“Twilight, you’re not a failure.” Freakazoid said to him. “It’s just that they don’t know what a good job you did to save them!”
“How so?” Twilight said, still in her sad state. “Even my friends hate me, and the newspapers wrote some nasty things about me!” She showed him a newspaper. He saw it and was shocked.
“That’s not true!” He said, tossing the newspaper aside. “They do love you for saving the world! In fact check out these newspapers!” He waved a stack of them in front of her eyes. “They said some really cool stuff about you!”
Feeling curious, Twilight took one of the newspapers, and saw a headline which read, “TWILIGHT SPARKLE STOPS THE LOBE!” she was surprised, as she turned to Freakazoid, who nodded. He handed her another article with the headline, “ATOMIC SUPERHERO, AND POWERFUL ALICORN SAVE TOWN FROM CATACLYSMIC EVENT!” he handed her another article which read, “FREAKAZOID AND TWILIGHT SPARKLE SAVE US ONCE MORE!” Twilight was shocked and amazed, as these newspapers actually praised her for her heroic deeds to save Equestria from destruction, and how she and her sidekick saved the world! Her eyes were widened, and her mouth was agape. The public didn’t hate her...they loved her, and how they saved Equestria from being obliterated!
“You see, Twilight?” Freakazoid said to her. “They love you! They heard about how you saved everyone! You’re a hero!” He hugged her friend, that she smiled and patted him warmly.
“We’re both heroes!” She said happily.
“And on top of that, we stopped the Lobe and restored the universe to normal.” He finished. “What is there to worry about?”
Twilight smiled, brightly as she looked at him. Freakazoid was right. What was there to worry about, especially since they save the world from total destruction after all? “Thanks, Freakazoid.” She said to him. “I guess I did need a little reminding here and there.” She hugged him with her arms, and wings around him as they embraced this moment.
As they did that, a police car drove up to them, and they both saw their buddy (who Freakazoid usually hangs out with). “Pretty clever, you two.” Cosgrove said to them. “Now, how about those donuts?”
The two heroes looked at each other, and thought that was a good idea as they smiled. “Sure thing, Cosgrove!” Twilight said, as she and Freakazoid both got into his car, and said vehicle took off.
As the three chums rode off to get donuts, Twilight suddenly got an idea as she nudged her hero buddy, who also thought the same thing. Freakazoid inched over to Cosgrove’s seat. “Hey, Cosgrove!” He said, sneakily. “We know what you’re getting for your birthday!”
Meanwhile, in the Wild Side at a restaurant called Salad Bowl Junction, Lightning Chill was working on the latest salad special, and ready to introduce to new customers. She had just finished putting the finishing touches on the salad and sighed. "Now, this is one salad that is sure to please some customers." she thought to herself, as she put it on the counter, and arranged it.
At that moment, a nearby portal opened inside the restaurant, and out plopped a genetically altered lab mouse. He had a chubby head, that was almost brain-shaped, and had big ears, as well as a zig-zagged tail. He got up and was shocked as he looked around the restaurant. He saw Lightning Chill smile at him, as he entered.
She leaned over to him, so she could see him. "Hey there, little guy." She said, sweetly. "Welcome to Salad Bowl Junction. What can I get tossing for you? Our salad special today is called 'Sprout, Sprout, Let It All Out'." A squirrel nearby ate a sprout and burped in enjoyment about the salad.
The Brain was surprised that he even saw a tiger with a unicorn horn. He was at a loss for words. Finally, he spoke. "Do you have any cheese or food pellets that I could buy?"
Lightning Chill was a little confused as he said that, while Echo came in as well. "You got fleas or something?" she asked, confused.
"Are you a giant water bug?" Echo asked.
"Actually, I am a genetically altered lab mouse, bent on world domination." The Brain simply answered. The two creatures were shocked and surprised by his answer.
"Hey, wait a minute." Lightning Chill said in realization. "Where are the Mane Six? Aren't they supposed to be here?"
"Now, that you mention it, Lightning..." Echo said, pondering. "...I thought they'd be here."
"What's going on?" Another voice asked, as a white peacock with a unicorn horn...Sugar Snap entered and saw the mouse on the ground. "Who's this cute little mousey?"
"Who are you?" Lightning Chill asked.
"You can call me 'The Brain'." The lab mouse simply answered.
The Wild Siders were shocked when they heard his introduction. "The Brain?" Sugar Snap asked. "As in Pinky & The Brain?" Lightning Chill and Echo both gasped.
"That's correct." Brain answered.
"Sugar Snap, are you pondering what I'm pondering?" Echo asked, confused.
As Sugar Snap was pondering, Lightning Chill gasped in shock, as her eyes widened in horror, as she put two and two together! She just realized something. "I think I found out something!" She said to her friends. "SOMEHOW, one way or the other, the portal must have shorted out, and instead of sending Pinkie Pie and her friends, it must have grabbed the nearest dimension of animals, making this mouse appear here!" Echo and Sugar Snap both gasped as they heard this assumption. "That's the ONLY explanation for it! I think."
"How distressing." The Brain said, now disappointed. "Might I inquire as to whom is controlling the polarity of this time whirlpool?" The Wild Siders looked at each other worriedly, wondering who could have done such a thing.
Meanwhile, in ACME Labs, a lab mouse with a lean body, big ears, and a big nose, as well as a bucktoothed smile, was playing with the controls to a time/dimension portal machine, pressing the different numbered buttons that were on it. Pinky laughed in a goofy way. "Narf!" he said, as he was playing with the machine to his heart's content, not having a care in the world. As it turned out, he was the one fiddling with the controls with the whirlpool! Boy, would he have a lot of explaining to do when the Brain got back to his own time!
