MLP: Agents of Harmony Season 1

All of eight Cutie Mark Crusaders were gathered at the clubhouse for the discussion, including the brown spiky Earth Pony with short tail dressed in greenish and silver armor and his Cutie Mark was Flail Sword and Chinese Character: 'Courage. They were discussing about their next hobby or hunt for their next or right Cutie Marks to fit.

Apple Bloom glanced at the chart of all the hobbies, which were crossed or done before. Instead of disappointment, she smiled happily like she actually enjoy it so much. Since the very day she, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo founded; they all vowed that they will find and do whatever hobbies they found to get their own Cutie Marks. And despite unable to get it, she enjoyed it very much like it was a lesson and adventure for her and her friends.

"Okay, Crusaders! Back to the business of earnin' our cutie marks!" Apple Bloom asked happily as she turned to her team, "Any suggestions?"

"No, we've tried everything!" Scootaloo said in concern.

Sweetie Belle nodded, "We've run out of ideas."

"We could try something like fighting Demon Successors?" Carly suggested, "I mean we beat their mummy and daddy before, so the kids would be piece of cake."

Maya gulped, "I think I rather play safe than doing something dangerous like that."

Twist sighed, "Even with the Crusaders with Cutie Marks, we still can't find the right one for you girls. I'm sorry."

Dinky nodded in concern, "I hate to say it but Twist's right. We spent five years in searching and trying all kinds of Cutie Marks. We still found nothing."

"So, that's it? Just give up?" Twinkle asked in concern and upset.

"So what?" The colt said confidently. The fillies turned and looked at him. He scoffed, "Cutie Mark, Scutie Mark - whatever, man! You fail, you try again and again until you get the right one. But what's important the most is having each other back for fun and adventure. After all, Friendship is Magic, isn't it?"

"Blonk's right! We can't give up!" Apple Bloom smiled happily as she climbed down from the box stage, "We can do better than that!"

Apple Bloom: We've been searchin' for our cutie marks
For a while now
Tryin' to find out how we fit in

Apple Bloom placed the new empty white blank chart on the wall. She turned to her friends who stand together with her while smiling. They all sang happily and proudly about reaching their goals.

Apple Bloom: So many ways we've tried before
But we keep on tryin' more

Cutie Mark Crusaders: 'Cause the Cutie Mark Crusaders don't give in
We'll make our mark
One way or another
We'll make our mark
On the day that we discover
The ultimate reward of our cutie marks!

Blonk cheered wildly, "Now that's what I'm talking about! Sounds like my Adventure Speech works well as always."

Carly nudged his chest, "As if buddy."

"Cutie Mark Crusaders! Help!" A familiar voice cried. Cutie Mark Crusaders turned and found Pipsqueak barged into the clubhouse while wearing worry and feared looks. They wondered where he has been and why is he worried. He continued, "I'm running for student pony president, I was hoping you all would be my campaign managers!"

Apple Bloom gasped, "We've never tried gettin' our cutie marks in campaign managin'! What do ya say, Crusaders?"

"That's a great idea," Twinkle exclaimed happily. The rest of Cutie Mark Crusaders smiled happily and nodded in agreement. She smiled, "We're in!"

Cutie Mark Crusaders cheered while giving a hoof unison, "Yeah! Hoof!"

Pipsqueak jumped while giving a hoof punch but he was too short to reach it. Sweetie Belle helped and levitated him high. They all smiled happily. They're in it together as one.

"This is where the fun begins," Blonk remarked.

At the Ponyville Schoolhouse's Playground, ten Cutie Mark Crusaders were setting their campaign up in the middle of it. Scootaloo, Carly and Blonk pushed the box to the front. Sweetie Belle levitated and placed Pipsqueak on top of it like standing on stage. Twinkle, Twist, Dinky and Maya brushed off some dust from his mane as well as making him looked good. Apple Bloom approached to the front, standing besides with him.

Apple Bloom smiled as she asked out loud, "So, Pip, how would you help the school if you were elected student pony president?"

The foals from schoolhouse turned and looked at Cutie Mark Crusaders. They wondered of what's going on.

"Our playground equipment took quite a beating during Twilight's battle with Paradox and also Third Shadow War!" Pipsqueak answered while pointed at the playground equipment which were badly damaged and ruined. He continued, "If I'm voted in as student pony president, I'll go to the school board and right this wrong!"

The foals cheered wildly and happily to hear that the damaged playground will be repaired and replaced.

"Well, I think that's a ridiculous waste of money!"

The foals turned to their back as they found Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Golden Sword, and Bronze Arrow approached. The foals have the feeling that whenever Diamond Tiara is here, the competition will get more serious and competitive than before. She'll make sure that she win the position for her personal gain.

"It's just like when Twist proposed to repair the window that Discord destroyed! She just wanted to repair it like a plain old schoolhouse window." Diamond Tiara explained firmly and calmly. She continued while pointing at the window which has her in glass stained window, "But you all know voting for me was the best choice because I convinced the school board to give that window visual appeal!"

Twist looked down in shame, "I should never have asked that."

"Forget it, Twist. What's done is done," Dinky comforted Twist, "And besides, we're gonna make sure that it's isn't about Diamond Tiara."

Maya smirked, "Great plan. I would like to see her try that."

"That's kinda a bit mean and harsh, don't you think?" Carly asked in concern.

Apple Bloom huffed, "Nope, it isn't. It doesn't hurt that her mother Spoiled Rich is president of the school board."

Twinkle huffed, "In other words, Diamond Tiara can get whatever she wants. I wouldn't be surprise of that."

"Exactly! Which is why when Diamond Tiara is voted student pony president," Bronze Arrow said confidently, "the school will be putting a statue of her in the center of our schoolyard!"

Diamond Tiara nudged him as she gave the latter a glare and gritted teeth, "Bronze! That was my big announcement for when I won!"

"I was only trying to help."

"I don't need that kind of help!"

"Haven't we all had enough of Diamond Tiara?" Apple Bloom asked.

"Do we really need a big statue of her?" Scootaloo asked.

"Especially where our playground equipment should be?" Sweetie Belle asked as well.

The foals whispered softly as they thought carefully and thoroughly of who is the right pony to become the president. And not to mention, they also want to play the playground equipment.

"If the playground is what you want," Maya asked proudly, "Then, join us now!"

Dinky nodded, "Not only that! We stand together for our rights and needs! And we want Playground now! We want Playground now!"

Twist smirked slyly, "Especially against Diamond Tiara! I've had enough of her bullying my friends or even replaced something that is complete unnecessary!"

"If I'm in, so should you!" Carly remarked proudly, "United we stand!"

Twinkle and Blonk levitated Pipsqueak as they flew and landed on top of giant horseshoe statue. They all stood before the foals and even Cutie Mark Crusaders stood besides with their comrades.

"A vote for Pip is a vote for the playground!" Pipsqueak declared proudly.

Twinkle smirked as she held her hoof high, "Come on! Everypony! For the Playground!"

"Who cares," Diamond Tiara scoffed before jumped to the front of the foals. She declared, "A vote for Diamond Tiara is a vote for more Diamond Tiara!"

"Don't you mean 'A demote for Diamond Tiara is a vote for who wants her here'!" Blonk exclaimed proudly as he held his hood up high, "Vote for Pip! Vote for Playground! Together, everypony! Battle Cry now!"

Foals cheered wildly and happily, "Vote for Pip! Vote for Playground! Vote for Pip! Vote for Playground! Vote for Pip! Vote for Playground!"

Diamond Tiara grunted in anger and upset to see ponies voting for Pipsqueak, and not her. And just before she could do anything, Cutie Mark Crusaders began singing while regrouping on top of the horseshoe statue.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: It's time to make a change
This is our chance
Don't be afraid to do what's right

Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo held Pipsqueak up high while Nyx gave him a kiss on his cheek as the sign of supports. Maya, Twist and Carly cheered wildly and proudly. Heavy and Dinky held and swung the flags of Cutie Mark Crusaders.

Cutie Mark Crusaders slide down the horseshoe's statue before they let Pipsqueak to the front. They all then followed his lead.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: He's it! Vote for Pip!
We got an opportunity
To have fun again
A vote for Pip, and you can join the fight

The foals continued watching the event. And at the same time, Cutie Mark Crusaders continued persuading and asking them to support and vote for Pipsqueak.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: It's time for a new leader
It's time to make a change
We're here to fight for what we believe
(Vote for Pip!)

Cutie Mark Crusaders approached to the Tetherball. Pipsqueak kicked the ball around its stand.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: It's finally time we beat her
And play a better game
'Cause when we vote together
There's nothing that we can't achieve

Not amused yet angered and upset, Diamond Tiara stopped the ball at once. She then approached and 'talked' with the ponies about her and Pipsqueak. She then approached Pipsqueak before giving him a head slap, making the rest of his crew groaned in annoyance and anger.

Diamond Tiara continued convincing her classmates to vote for her, not Pipsqueak.

Diamond Tiara: I don't believe what I am hearing
I'm the only one you should be cheering
Pipsqueak? Try "Pip's weak!" Don't you think?
But a diamond is perfection
It's natural selection
So your vote better be for me, not the weakest link

"We'll let the votes decide!" Twinkle exclaimed in annoyance.

Diamond Tiara huffed as she turned and approached to the foals. She slyly and cunningly commented and threatened them about their dark secrets such as a purplish mane in two pigtail pink Earth Pony filly possessed strength, cyan pony with long extended magenta mane and tail, and pale Earth Pony with greenish spiky and mohawk mane and short tail possessed large teeth. Everyone were afraid of her if she revealed their secrets.

Diamond Tiara: Everypony has their little secrets
I know you do
A vote for me will help you keep them safe
Like your creepy super strength!
Or your mane extension
A little thing I won't mention
Or those freakish large teeth in your face!

"Come on now, ponies!" Apple Bloom called, "Don't listen to her!"

Carly squeaked, "Yeah! Fight Back! Show her who's the boss!"

Cutie Mark Crusaders continued convincing and pleading the foals to vote for Pipsqueak. Diamond Tiara was in shock before angered and upset by it.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: You've gotta vote for change
It's time for a new leader
End all the tyranny

Inspired and touched by Cutie Mark Crusaders, the foals know what to do now. And who they should vote for.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: Vote now and we can beat her
It's now another day
And we believe in what's right

Foals: Vote for Pip! Vote for Pip!

Cutie Mark Crusaders: Our victory is in sight

"Stop! Everypony who hasn't voted, listen up!" Diamond Tiara ordered.

Diamond Tiara approached the yellow filly who was struggling of holding books. She held the bookbag for the filly to watch and wanted to take. She then trotted off.

Diamond Tiara: Pip makes promises he can't keep
But I can do more
You could really use a new bookbag

Diamond Tiara approached some foals as she played her charismatic trick on them. It annoyed some about how rich, spoiled and annoyed she can be.

Diamond Toara: 'Cause I'll make things happen
That none of you here can afford
To do, like, ever!

Diamond Tiara approached to the fat colt in giving him lots of sweets. She then approached to cyan filly in giving her a parasol for shades from sun. She passed Button while spun his cap's top before it flew. It makes him annoyed and upset.

Diamond Tiara: Wouldn't you like a little something sweet?
Here's a parasol to hide you from the heat
Who says that I can't be nice?

Diamond Tiara approached to the stand as she switched doodling and colorful 'Vote for Pipsqueak' stand to her rich and impressive 'Vote for Diamond Tiara' stand.

Diamond Tiara: But first there's one thing
An itsy-bitsy little string
And voting for me is the price!

Silver Spoon approached Diamond Tiara as she whispered to her best friend about her plans in wnning the campaign and make the foals vote for her.

Silver Spoon: I've a tiny suggestion
That you should be aware
You could probably win this election
If you show them all you real—

Diamond Tiara: I don't recall asking you to speak!

The foals gasped in shock. Diamond Tiara shut her own best friend off about winning the president campaign?!

"Well, if that's how you treat your best friend, then I choose Pipsqueak!" Sweetie Belle declared.

Blonk smirked, "You hear her?! Who are we gonna vote for?!"

"Vote for Pip!" Cutie Mark Crusaders cheered.

Foals: Vote!

Cutie Mark Crusaders marched to the front as the foals cheered wildly and happily while holding 'Vote for Pipsqueak' stands. They all willing to support Pipsqueak as the school president.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: Stand strong and don't be afraid, ponies
Let's free ourselves from the past

Foals: For Pip!
Vote!
He's it! Vote for Pip! Vote!

Carly and Maya helped passing some voting papers for ponies to write inside the booth. Heavy continued encourage and inspired the foals to join the Cutie Mark Crusaders and vote for Pipsqueak. Dinky and Twist swung their Cutie Mark Crusaders flag proudly and happily for everyone to follow their example.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: We'll let honor win out against the tyranny
And make a change that will last

Foals: For Pip!
Vote!
Vote for Pip!

Pipsqueak and his four members of Cutie Mark Crusaders marched together as they passed all of the foals. They all looked at him with proud and happy faces.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: It's time for a new leader
It's time to make a change
We're here to fight for what we believe

Foals: Vote for Pip!

As Pipsqueak approached to the broken seesaw's edge, Heavy headed to the back as he brought its end down while raising the colt up high. Everyone cheered while raising their hoofs up high. They believed in Pipsqueak win the President Campaign.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: It's finally time we beat her
And play a better game
'Cause when we vote together
There's nothing that we can't achieve

Foals: Vote for Pip!

Cheerilee gathered box of all votes in schoolhouse for counting the votes. It took an hour to get it down. She came to the schoolhouse's entrance as she make some announcement. Everyone can't wait for it to happen.

"The votes have been counted! The student pony president is..." Cheeriless announced calmly. Pipsqueak shuddered and quivered nervously while Diamond Tiara remained calm like she's gonna win it. Cheerilee announced, "Pipsqueak!"

Diamond Tiara gasped in shock while the foals cheered wildly and happily. Pipsqueak won the campaign! He's now the President of Schoolhouse Club!

"Oh, my gosh, Crusaders! Pip won!" Apple Bloom cheered.

Twinkle squealed happily, "I knew it! I knew he can do it!"

"I couldn't have won without the hard work of my teammates and campaign managers," Pipsqueak said proudly as he pointed at his teammates, "the Cutie Mark Crusaders!"

Apple Bloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle decided to check on their flanks if they did earn the Campaign Management Cutie Marks. But instead, they found blank like before. Their own teammates sighed in disappointment and upset. All of them were hoping to happen.

"Guess you're not as good as you thought, blank flanks!" Diamond Tiara remarked arrogantly. She turned to Cheerilee, "In fact, I demand a recount!"

Cheerilee shook her head while smiled calmly, "Trust me, Diamond Tiara. Pip won."

"I'll be the judge of that, Miss Cheerilee!" Diamond Tiara remarked confidently. As Diamond Tiara entered the schoolhouse for recount on votes, she screamed and screeched in shock. She emerged and looked at the unamused Silver Spoon, "One vote! Silver Spoon! Guys! You didn't vote for me?!"

Silver Spoon huffed, "No, I didn't."

"Hell No!" Both Bronze Arrow and Golden Arrow said

"But you're my best friends!"

"Really? 'Cause All of us tried to help by mentioning your 'surprise' statue, and suddenly we weren't even allowed to speak! You could have actually won this election if you just listened to me. You wanna know how?" Silver Spoon remarked. She then whispered to Diamond Tiara, "Sorry. I'm not allowed to speak."

Diamond Tiara grunted a bit before screaming in anger and rage. She then ran off at once. Cutie Mark Crusaders looked surprise and worry of what they just saw. Silver Spoon and two colts abandoned her best friend.

"What? We don't have to follow her drum any more." Golden remarked dryly as she turned and walked away.

"Good enough for us," Twinkle smirked proudly. She turned to her friends, who looked concern and worry but not proud or happy about beating Diamond Tiara in Presidential Campaign. She asked, "What's the matter? Aren't you happy that we've won? We show Diamond Tiara who's the boss!"

"Yeah, we did..." Carly admitted in concern, "I'm feel sorry for her actually."

Dinky nodded, "Yeah. She and Silver Spoon, Golden Sword, and Bronze Sword have always been friends since the first day of Schoolhouse. It feels... weird."

The rest of Cutie Mark Crusaders chatted and nodded in agreement about Diamond Tiara.

"You can't be serious?!" Twinkle exclaimed in shock.

Apple Bloom sighed, "I know Diamond Tiara's been pretty awful, but... we should probably make sure she's okay. Just 'cause she's never cared about anypony else's feelings doesn't mean we shouldn't care about hers."

The rest of Cutie Mark Crusaders nodded in agreement. Twinkle grunted in anger as she reluctantly agree to it as well. As they were distracted, Maya moved away as she took a piece of paper out from her bag. She read it carefully while giggled happily.

"I can't believe this is it! It's gonna happen! It's gotta be!"

Cutie Mark Crusaders followed and spied on Diamond Tiara, who was walking across the main street of Ponyville. As she was passing the small store, a mare emerged from it. She revealed to be a dark pink Earth Pony with gentle and fashionable purplish mane and tail with lighter stripes like Rarity's dressed in her cyan blouse while her Cutie Mark is a diamond ring.

The mare spotted Diamond Tiara passing her by as she recognize the latter well. Diamond Tiara responded back to the former. It can only one thing - Diamond Tiara's mother.

"Diamond Tiara!" Spoiled Rich called. Diamond Tiara stopped. She demanded, "Why are you making that face? That is not the face of a winner."

"Because..." Diamond Tiara gulped, "I didn't win."

"What?! You mean I hefted all these party supplies to celebrate nothing?!"

Spoiled Rich pointed at her servants and maids carrying both Diamond Tiara Statues and party equipment from the store. Diamond Tiara looked down in shame and defeat as she bowed in apologetic position.

Spoiled Rich huffed, "It's bad enough you lost to that transplant from Trottingham, but imagine if you'd lost to one of those blank flanks. As a Rich pony, you must always think of your social standing."

Spoiled Rich spotted Fancy Pants and his girlfriend - Fleur De Lee passing her and her daughter by. She waved to them in respect. After Fancy Pants and Fleur De Lee passed, she turned and glared at Diamond Tiara.

"That starts here in Ponyville and reaches all over Equestria. Don't ever forget that, Diamond Tiara." Spoiled Rich explained while patted her daughter's mane gently. She then exclaimed, "Ever!"

Cutie Mark Crusaders yelped in concern and worry as they finally learn and realize of where Diamond Tiara get that attitude from. And it's not pretty too. Nyx even recalled that her mother nearly picked a fight with Spoiled Rich once about Nyx got lost in Everfree Forest by Diamond Tiara.

As soon as Spoiled Rich walked away, Diamond Tiara headed to the front as she began singing about her inner struggles and desire.

Diamond Tiara: If I'm a diamond
Then why do I feel so rough?
I'm as strong as a stone
Even that's not enough

Diamond Tiara took a glance at the diamond from the shop. She turned and walked away slowly and calmly.

Diamond Tiara: There's something jagged in me
And I've made such mistakes
I thought that diamonds were hard
Though I feel I could break

Diamond Tiara spotted both older stallion and his younger filly chatting happily from the bridge. She then walked to the middle of it. She stood up while looking down at the river of her reflection. She sobbed a bit as her teardrop on the river. It make her not only jealous but also despaired and upset. She wondered if her mother ever done the same for her.

Diamond Tiara: Would you believe
That I've always wished I could be somepony else?
Yet I can't see
What I need to do to be the pony I want to be

Diamond Tiara spotted The Cakes Family playing happily with the twin babies. She compared to theirs and her mother's treatment to her. She felt like her mother didn't actually love her but think of her as her necessary successor.

Diamond Tiara: I've been told my whole life
What to do, what to say
Nopony showed me that
There might be some better way

Diamond Tiara sighed as she imagined herself being lost from not only tracks but also what she wanted without her friends and family.

Diamond Tiara: And now I feel like I'm lost
I don't know what to do
The ground is sinking away
I'm about to fall through

Diamond Tiara continued walking across the alley of Ponyville while Cutie Mark Crusaders followed her. They all hid behind the house's walls. They all feel sorry and concern for her. She then decided to go home now.

Diamond Tiara: Would you believe
That I've always wished I could be somepony else?
Yet I can't see
What I need to do to be the pony I want to be
To be the pony I want to be

Cutie Mark Crusaders looked at each other. They learned Diamond Tiara's true personality and true self. All the things she did was just an act for her mother and learned the latter's lesson as well. They asked themselves - what they should do with Diamond Tiara now...

Cutie Mark Crusaders returned to their clubhouse as they continued discussing about Diamond Tiara after they have learned the truth behind her now.

"Is it weird that I feel bad for her?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"If it is, then..." Scootaloo sighed, "I'm weird, too."

"I kinda feel sorry for her," Carly admitted.

Twist hummed in concern, "To think that a bully like her was actually a victim by her own mother."

"It's good think our mums never done terrible things to us," Dinky Doo commented.

"You could say that again," Blonk admitted as he turned and found Maya remained silent while smiling happy. He hummed suspiciously, "What're you smiling about?"

Maya whistled happily, "Nothing. Just waiting..."

The Cutie Mark Crusaders felt uneasy and concern about her since this morning. They know one thing for sure - she's hiding something but what.

Twinkle shook her head, "Come on, Crusaders. You're not actually gonna fall for that, aren't you?"

Pipsqueak sighed in defeat, "As much I want to deny it but that's the truth. I actually feel sorry for her being mistreated by her mother, instead of comforting her. That mare just harsh her badly."

"She deserve it for everything she has done to all of us. Don't you think of that?" Twinkle demanded.

"As much as I want to make her look bad, but-" Apple Bloom said remorsefully, "She wants to change, but she doesn't know how."

Sweetie Belle nodded, "Seems like she could use a friend or two to help her figure it out."

"Yeah, I'm in too," Scootaloo agreed.

Carly and even Maya nodded in agreement that they should help Diamond Tiara as well.

Pipsqueak sighed, "I want to help but I need to make some preparation. I have to ask the school board's approval for schoolhouse's playground repairs. So, good luck for helping Diamond Tiara. Hopefully, she can befriend with us."

Twist nodded, "I also have to help Pipsqueak prepare his proposal."

"Me too," Dinky Doo added.

Blonk sighed, "Sorry, I've got some training to do tomorrow morning."

Twinkle gasped, "So, you really going to do it?"

Apple Bloom nodded, "I know you've got troubles with Diamond Tiara, but so do I. But you saw what happened, and I don't think it's a trick. If it is, Diamond Tiara is poor in acting. So, we should at least help her. We should give her a chance to show who she really want to be."

"But still..."

"It's okay if you don't wanna follow us and help Diamond Tiara. But I suggest if you give her a chance. I'm sure she feel sorry for sending you off to the Old Castle of Two Sisters."

"Maybe..."

Apple Bloom smiled a bit, "I guess I'll see you all tomorrow morning. Let's cross our hooves that Diamond Tiara ain't trying to bully at us again."

"Right," Everyone agreed.

Twinkle hummed in concern as she not only holding a grudge against Diamond Tiara for bullying her and her friends, but also concern about the bully's true self. She wasn't sure if she should give Diamond Tiara a chance or not...

All of them left the clubhouse as they all departed and returned home at once. Twinkle, Carly and Maya were on their way back to the Castle of Friendship.

Twinkle was still unconvinced and concern about giving Diamond Tiara a chance to be her friend. She still think it's not good idea. Maya noticed it.

"Still worry about Diamond Tiara?" Carly asked.

Twinkle sighed, "Yeah... I still don't trust her. She's up to something. I can feel it."

Maya hummed in concern, "Maybe. But you should at least give her a chance. You saw what happen. And remember what Twilight Sparkle did to Trixie and Sunset Shimmer? She gave them a chance. They both turned out to be okay friends."

Carly nodded in agreement, "She's right. Twilight changed them."

Twinkle hummed in concern, "Hmm... I supposed so. But I can't make promises when it comes to grudge. I carried it very hard."

"Well, here's a good lesson, Twinkle. I learned it from Dex and Uncle Conner -" Jade said in confidently, "-'The Greatest Victory is the Battle not Fought."

"Huh? What's that supposed to be mean?"

"We shouldn't fight the enemies but gave them lots of choices - A) let them beat themselves up badly from their anger and their teammates, B) Give them a good lesson and reason for second chance, or C) Just forget about it."

"Wow... That's a lot of option," Carly remarked.

Twinkle sighed, "Easy for you to say..."

"Hey, I'd never say it's easy," Maya shrugged. She stopped as if something tingling her. She turned to Twinkle, "You feel that?"

She looked worry as she felt it too, "Yeah. It's coming from the train station. Come on."

Nyx, Alyson Joy and Jade Adventure headed off at once into Ponyville's Train Station. They hid below the deck as they took the peek. They spotted three Demon Successors and their Demon Minions trashing and destroying the train station, as well as creating graffiti in the area. Cinder, Soundwave, Klaw and were leading the team.

"Should have known Drago and his gang are the cause of this mess," Jade remarked.

Alyson hummed in concern, "What are they up to?"

Nyx shrugged, "No idea... Let's just watch first."

Cinder was unleashed her Dragon Flame in creating the graffiti of his demonic dragon killing Twilight Sparkle. Soundwave unleashed his Sonic Screech in destroying the properties. Klaw was unleashing his Twister Boom at the Ponyville in making the ponies stayed in their homes.

Cinder sighed in relief, "Oh yeah! That's more like it! Marmo is so love this one - the Blazing Dragon defeats Twilight Sparkle! That would cool her boiling water."

"Oh please... You bored me to death, Cinder," Soundwave said in annoyance as she landed on the ground, "So, what's the point of doing this? We were supposed to think of a way to get Twinkle!"

Klaw nodded, "Indeed. Her foolish friends have defeated Boulder and Marmo! This is a shame and humiliation! How will we face our own family now?!"

"Relax... This is perfect," Cinder said calmly and confidently. It make both Soundwave and Klaw confused. He continued, "We've been doing this for a month. And it's making Ponyville angry and complained about the mess. And when there's complain..."

Klaw gasped before smirked in pleasant, "Then, Twilight Sparkle and her friends will come to stop us. We will surely beat them as the token of our redemption."

"Not only that, Morgana and the rest will go and find Yue and her friends for defeating and banishing our family to the Netherworld."

The three fillies gasped in concern and worry.

Soundwave scoffed a bit, "Someone finally use her head, other than just being hotheaded dragon or even trying to impress the mermaid."

She groaned, "I resent that. And besides, no one is beautiful as Marmo. Come on, we're done. Let's report to Morgana of our progress. I really hate her control freak attitude."

"Tell me about it. Runs by her father's blood," Klaw remarked.

As Demon Successors and their minions walked away at once, Twinkle, Carly, and Maya remained hidden underneath the station's deck for the moment. They prayed the Demon Successors missed them.

Soundwave stopped at once as she looked around, "Wait a minute! Where's Bash?!"

"Not again..." Cinder snarled, "That idiot always run off for food. Where did he go this time?!"

"There!" Klaw exclaimed as he pointed at Avalanche lying down on the tracks while laughing happily. He grunted in annoyance, "What is that moron doing?!"

Soundwave hissed, "Is he crazy?! He's gonna get himself killed by the train! He hasn't reached his adulthood!"

"That moron never used his head!" Klaw exclaimed in annoyance. He then spotted the Ponyville Train coming towards Avalanche. He groaned, "Either he get up or get killed by it!"

As the train coming very fast and almost reaching Ponyville's Train Station, Bash continued laughing happily and wildly. Everyone gasped in concern as they all could to was watch. Will Bash get out of tracks in time?!

Unable to stand it anymore, Twinkle quickly charged in while unleashed her powerful Levitation Spell in lifting and pushing him aside quickly. The train just passed them. Everyone gasped in concern and wondered what happen to both of them.

As soon as the train passed, Twinkle and Bash were on other side of tracks. They both were safe.

Twinkle sighed, "Are you alright?"

"Twinkle save Bash?" Bashsked in surprise.

"Yeah... So hard to believe a pony like me actually save a demon. Sounds silly..."

...
...

Maya glared at Cinder, "What are you up to?"

She smirked, "See ya, losers! Knew you still have the blood of Demon in you, Yue!"

Cinder, Klaw, Soundwave, Bash and their Demon Minions quickly disappeared in the black smoke. Twinkle, Carly, and Maya were in shock and confuse.

"What was that?" Carly asked in concern and confusion.

At Castle of Friendship, Dex and Richie have prepared the Chinese Dish Dinner for themselves and the children. Both were requested as the guardian for Twinkle and her friends since Twilight Sparkle and Ash were at Canterlot for some important mission. Both Ashley and Spike were with both Swift Ice and Rarity for sleepover.

As the family were enjoying their dinner, Twinkle was staring while stirring and playing with the food in bored manner. Both Maya and Carly looked worry about her. Dex noticed it.

He cleared his throat, "Twinkle? Is there something bother you?"

"No..." Twinkle denied it. Dex gave her the stern looks at her. She yelped in fear and shock. She actually hated it a lot. She sighed, "Okay! It's Diamond Tiara and Bash..."

He gasped as he slammed his hoof on the ground, "She bullied you again? Did that Demon Successor of Nature hurt you?!"

"No. It's just unexpected..." Twinkle explained. He gave her his raised right-eyebrow. She continued, "I just found out that Diamond Tiara was harsh by her own mother for being failure. I saved Bash too."

"Aieyah..." He remarked in surprise.

Richie spitted the water out from his mouth. He coughed heavily. He then looked at Maya and Carly, who nodded in confirmation.

"I feel... sorry and concern for them. It's kinda strange."

"No, Twinkle. It's your conscious and pitiful. You are showing not only concern but also kindness for them. And surprisingly, you showed it for a demon. That's very rare."

"And weird too. I mean... She's a bully and a bad pony too! She deserve that punishment from her mother! And yet, I..." Twinkle groaned, "It's just so hard for me to forgive her after what she has done..."

"I understand. You weren't the only one who has difficult to forgive the bully. Your father struggled to give a chance for Shadowclaw."

Twinkle and her two friends yelped as they turned looked at Tao. Nyx asked, "Shadowclaw is the bully? He bullied my dad?! Seriously?!"

"I am." nodded, "His mortal life has passed on after the success conquest on Land of Ma by Sovereign Lion Dynasty. He was reborn as the son of Prowler and Amberly - the third Mystic Vampire Pony. He has shown some potential and greatness in doing good deeds. And so, he bullied everyone by calling them 'coward' and 'stupid', and he even challenged them. He also bullied my son too."

"No way..."

"It's true. I make a lot of reports about Shadowclaw for bullying my son. And so, that Prowler was harsh on him a lot and even treating him like a trash. Then one day, he was chased by the ponies at Trottingham because they mistaken him a monster. And when the morning rise, he was trapped and burnt to death. Vampire Ponies cannot survive the light, even for the Human Type. Shadow Dragon did something unthinkable - saving his life."

"Wow..."

"Yes, Twinkle. And they both became best friends and even the teammates. I was surprise, yet proud of it too."

"Awesome. But still..."

"Twinkle, have I told you about Sensei Miyagi Morita's special philosophy?" Dex asked curiously. Twinkle shook her head. He continued, "He is known to be Grandmaster of Karate Style and a true philosopher as well. And he quote a special philosophy behind the pony's nature - 'There's no bad children, but bad parent or teacher'."

Carly nodded, "True. Spoiled Rich gave a hard time on Diamond Tiara."

"And not only that, Richie wasn't even the good guy from the start," Maya added.

Both of them were surprise and shocked of it, both Dex and Maya nodded for confirmation.

Richie nodded, "It is true. I once served under Adam for riches and mother's approval. But every time I failed my duty and mission, he treated me badly. So, I abandoned and betrayed him. I joined sensei. It is where they treated me not only servant, but family. It's what I wanted. Ponies deserve second chance."

"Yes. It is indeed true. While they're young, they can make amends and choices for the better. They just need some help," Tao explained, "And I believe Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo are making right decision. They may able to show her the way."

Maya smirked, "Yeah. And something awesome is gonna happen."

"And even Demons?" Twinkle asked curiously.

Dex hummed in concern, "Well... As far as I know of, Demons are dangerous and violent creatures. They desired not only battles but also creating chaos and destruction across the world. They did not show any generosity, kindness or concern. It's hard to tell, Twinke."

"But I betrayed the Demons because of who I really am, and yet I saved Bash. He appreciate it."

"True. But you can't be sure yet. Just be alert. And there's nothing wrong to give ponies some chances, even Bash and Diamond Tiara."

"I understand, grandpa."

Maya held Twinkle's shoulder tightly, "We'll help her too."

Carly nodded in agreement, "Yeah. We just have to make sure nothing bad happens."

"I'm glad to hear that." He smiled as he turned to Richie , "Keep an eye on her. We can't be certain if Bash truly care for her. He is the son of Po Kong."

He nodded, "Yes, sensei."
...
...
Deep within the Dark Forest...

Morgana and Cinder were discussing with each other about the plans. They both turned and looked at Bash eating lots of vegetables and animals into his stomach. Marmo was washing and moisturizing her face gently and calmly. Megavolt was practicing his Thunder Katana in making sure he grew stronger and powerful. Boulder was punching and smashing the rocks very hard. Klaw was reading some books. Soundwave was flying around in the sky while scouring and securing the area.

Morgana hummed in concern, "Are you certain he will do it?"

"Of course, it will work," Cinder admitted before smirked darkly, "We'll have her soon enough."

She groaned in annoyance and concern, "You'd better hope so. Father and the rest expected our results."

"Don't worry. It's perfect plan," The red demon dragon remarked.

,..
...

On the next day...

The Ponyville Schoolhouse's bell rang as the students quickly ran out and went home.. Pipsqueak, Dinky Doo and Twist remained behind as they planned to talk with school board about the school playground repairs.

Diamond Tiara just exited as well. Three Cutie Mark Crusaders exited as well. They looked at each other for the moment. They all nodded in agreement.

"Hey, Diamond Tiara! Wait up!" Apple Bloom called.

Diamond Tiara grunted in annoyance, "What do you three want? To gloat? Rub in my defeat?"

Apple Bloom shook her head, "Actually, we wanted to invite you to our clubhouse to hang out."

Diamond Tiara was surprised and shocked. Scootaloo smiled, "Yeah, for real!"

"Well, thanks to you all, I don't have any important class president business to attend to or anything." Diamond Tiara sighed, "So I might as well."

Sweetie Belle hummed, "That sounds like a yes..."

At the Cutie Mark Crusaders' Clubhouse, three Custie Mark Crusaders brought and shown Diamond Tiara their place and objectives in getting Cutie Marks. Diamond Tiara looked at the chart as she was observing and analyzing it.

"So, do you three just sit around here plotting out different ways to try and get your cutie marks?" Diamond Tiara asked as she turned and looked at Cutie Mark Crusaders. They nodded in confirmation. She hummed before sighed, "You three are... really lucky."

Cutie Mark Crusaders asked, "We are?!"

Diamond Tiara nodded, "Yeah! You get to explore all these options, learning who you really are before you're stuck with something you don't understand."

"But... you've done that, right?" Apple Bloom asked.

Diamond Tiara smirked as she shown her Cutie Mark, "Yeah, 'cause I have my cutie mark! And I'm not struggling at all to figure out who I'm supposed to be and what I'm supposed to be doing with this mark that's already on my flank!"

Apple Bloom hummed in concern, "Uh... are you sure about that?"

Diamond Tiara scoffed in annoyance, "That's a weird question."

"Not really," Sweetie Belle admitted, "since we kind of overheard you yesterday."

Diamond Tiara gasped, "Were you trying to get your cutie mark in spying? Is that on your little chart?"

Sweetie Belle yelped as she shook her head, "No! We were just worried about you when you lost the election, and then you lost your friend, and then your mom yelled at you..."

Apple Bloom interrupted, "We know you wanna change, and we think we can—"

"HELP!" The familiar voice cried. Cutie Mark Crusaders turned and opened the door as they found Pipsqueak, Dinky Doo and Twist standing before them. The latter looked scared and worried like something bad has happened to them. Pipsqueak explained, "Cutie Mark Crusaders! I was at the school board meeting and they didn't approve my request for the new playground equipment!"

Twist hissed in concern, "There's no money in the budget! So we checked our piggy banks to see if we had enough bits, but..."

"It's still not enough!" Dinky Doo exclaimed in concern, "Even my mummy and Sparkle can't help because their salaries aren't enough too!"

"Don't worry, guys!" Sweetie Belle comforted.

Scootaloo nodded, "We'll meet you back at school."

"And help you guys find a solution!" Apple Bloom added.

Pipsqueak smiled, "Thanks, Cutie Mark Crusaders!"

Pipsqueak, Twist and Dinky Doo turned and left. Diamond Tiara overheard everything as she smirked darkly. It's perfect for her.

Diamond Tiara exited while smiling, "Oh, I already have a solution! Our new student pony president is gonna be kicked out of office, and I'll be reinstated!"

Before Cutie Mark Crusaders could do anything, Diamond Tiara quickly ran off at once.

"Where's she going?" Scootaloo asked in concern.

Apple Bloom hissed in concern, "Where do you think?! C'mon! After her!"

Sweetie Belle nodded, "I'm coming too!"

Cutie Mark Crusaders went and chased after Diamond Tiara before the latter could do something bad and dangerous. She spotted them as she quickly make haste across the Ponyville's bridge. They followed as well while pleading and reasoning with her as well.

Diamond Tiara: Cutie Mark Crusaders, get out of my way
Those ponies need to know the truth
And they'll hear it from me

Cutie Mark Crusaders: Stop!
Diamond Tiara, this is not the way
You know you're better than this hostility

Diamond Tiara quickly stopped at once as she pushed the cart down hard. It poured the couple of apples down. Cutie Mark Crusaders yelped as they almost slipped and tripped by the apples.

Diamond Tiara: You don't even know me at all
Don't understand the meaning of my fall
What my family would think if I ever
Fail at anything

Diamond Tiara continued running as fast as she can. She passed the Ponyville Water Fountain where the nobles and rich ponies were there chatting with each other about Ponyville Schoolhouse, including Diamond Tiara's parents.

Diamond Tiara: I'm a diamond – that means you'll never break
No matter what be the cost of the path I take
Whatever I have to do to win in the end

Each time Diamond Tiara came across the Cutie Mark Crusaders at the corner or blocking her, they kept on pleading and begging her to change her ways. But Diamond Tiara continued ignoring the advice and ran off quickly.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: Stop! This is not the answer
Wait! And it's plainly seen
Listen! You can redeem yourself
But by helping others, not by being mean

As Diamond Tiara continued running, Cutie Mark Crusaders managed catch up to her. They quickly moved to the front as they continued reasoning and talking with her.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: We know you want friends who admire you
You want to be the star with all the power too
But there's a better way, there's a better wa-a-ay

Diamond Tiara slowly slow down her running as she began thinking of what Cutie Mark Crusaders have said. They all then ran besides together with her.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: There's so much more still left to
Learn about yourself
See the light that shines in you
We know you can be somepony else

Cutie Mark Crusaders came to the fork road while reasoning with Diamond Tiara for a better way. Diamond Tiara is now in dilemma as she wondered - what she should do now?!

Cutie Mark Crusaders: You can stop right now
And try another start
You'll finally free yourself from the dark
And see the light
And see the light of your cutie mark

Before Diamond Tiara or Cutie Mark Crusaders could do anything, they heard some screaming. They turned and looked at the Everfree Forest. Some ponies are in troubles!

Within the Everfree Forest, Bash was holding Twinkle and her friends in his both hands. Morgana and her brethren smiled darkly. They finally achieved their goals at last! They finally caught her in their grasp, thanks to Bash.

"Excellent work, Avalanche," Morgana complimented.

Cinder scoffed, "Told you that would work! It's all thanks to little one's weakness, compassion and heroic nonsense deeds for innocents and even her own kind. She feel sorry for "

Twinkle groaned painfully while glaring at Bash, "I gave you the chance! I wanted to befriend with you! I wanted you to be good like me."

Avalanche sniffed softly, "Sorry. Me wanted to be good like you but... Cousin Morgana told me that you did bad to my mama. And also, your friends mean to our family."

"I'm sorry, okay? We have no choice! We just want the medicine for our family."

"But what about us? I thought we are family. I was your favorite cousin, and so as Marmo."

"We were." Twinkle sighed.

Jade groaned in anger, "When we get out of this, Dex is gonna kick your flanks for kidnapping us! And best of all, he's gonna banish you all!"

"What she said," Carly supported.

"Pathetic..." Morgana remarked as she floated towards Bash. She patted him, "Well done, cousin. You finally have some usefulness. I actually thought I wanted to use your as sacrifice for my plan. Almost, of course."

"What is next?" He asked.

Soundwave smirked, "I know what to think - we could feast on them."

"I got a better idea," Klaw smirked while glaring at Twinkle, "Put him the same place she let her guard down."

Cinder whistled, "I like your thinking, Klaw. That's for my beautiful sexy mermaid."

Marmo smiled as she slithered and wrapped Drago while giggled, "Oh... My favorite dragon..."

Cinder and Marmo gave each other a passionate kiss, making everyone feel disgusted and annoyed.

Bash stuck his tongue out, "Yuck..."

Nevertheless, Demon Successors turned and glared at Twinkle and the others. The little ones giggled uneasily and nervously while their enemies smiled in pleasant. Something bad is about to happen...

At the train station, both Boulder and Megavolt formed the powerful stone wrapper in trapping and zapping Twinkle and her friends. Bash placed the Cutie Mark Crusaders on the tracks at once. Three of them quickly returned to the rest of Demon Successors at once. As she and her friends struggled in getting out from their imprisonment, Demon Successors were watching and laughing at it. Is this the end of Twinkle and her friends?

Suddenly, everyone heard a loud blowing whistle as well as spotting the black smokes coming from the north direction. The train is coming!

"The end has finally come!" Soundwave exclaimed proudly, "Our family will be proud of it."

Morgana nodded, "Indeed. Our mission is finally complete!"

The train is moving very fast. And it's almost reaching to the train station where Twinkle and her friends are trapping at now!

Klaw chuckled in amusement, "The train is coming! It's gonna go choo-choo on these brats!"

"Choo-Choo?" Bash asked in surprise. He recalled of what Twimkle has done for him - saving his life from being crushed and killed by the train. He gasped, "ABash must safe Yue-Yue! He must!"

Before anyone could say anything, Avalanche charged in as he quickly stood in front of Twinke and her friends. He held his hands up as he readied himself to stop the train or die trying. Everyone screamed and cried to Avalanche to get out due to him haven't reached his adulthood or obtained completely immortality.

As everyone continued watching, the train immediately stopped?! Everyone was in shock and surprise as they wondered why and how?!

"We did it! We stopped it!"

Everyone turned to the north direction as they found another three of Cutie Mark Crusaders and Diamond Tiara stand near to the train traffic light stand. It was on red.

"I told you!" Diamond Tiara exclaimed, "Putting red on it makes the train stop!"

"Thanks!" Main Cutie Mark Crusaders thanked happily.

Twinkle gasped, "Diamond Tiara saved us? I don't believe it..."

Diamond Tiara and main Cutie Mark Crusaders galloped towards Nyx and others as well.

Dark Xing screamed in fury, "DAMN YOU, MORTALS!"

Cinder gasped, "Bash! what are you doing?!"

"I don't believe it," Soundwave exclaimed in shock.

"I know. That fool is helping them!" Klaw exclaimed in anger.

Bash destroyed the wrapper in freeing Twinkle, Carly,and Maya out. Demon Successors were in furious and angered while Cutie Mark Crusaders were in shock and surprise of it. Bash actually saving their friends' alive.

"You-You saved us..." Twinkle asked in surprise.

Bash sighed, "Me sorry. Yue-Yue saved me. Me saved you."

"Wow... Did not expect that," Maya remarked.

Carly nodded in agreement, "Yeah. I'm guessing why Po Kong and him are always the youngest Demon Lords and Demon Successors."

"ENOUGH!" Morgana exclaimed in anger. Cutie Mark Crusaders yelped in shock and feared. She and her Demon Successors were armed and ready to attack. She growled, "I will make you all pay for ruining our revenge, especially you, Bash! You disgraced us all! Prepare to die!"

Just as Demon Successors were about to attack while Cutie Mark Crusaders yelped and quivered in concern, the ground shaken very hard as it was creating a long line. Everyone turned to the south direction as they found Blonk was wielding his flail sword. He was armed and ready to fight.

"Yu Mo Gui Gwai Fai Di Zao! Yu Mo Gui Gwai Fai Di Zao! Yu Mo Gui Gwai Fai Di Zao!"

Demon Successors yelped in shock and feared. Cutie Mark Crusaders gasped in surprise. They all turned to their back where Dex and Richie were holding both greenish glowing dead lizard and blow-fish while chanting and dancing harmonically and calmly. And at the same time, five cards - Red Fire, Blue Water, Green Air, Yellow - Earth and White - Light spinning around them. Theirs were glowing brightly.

"Stop him!" Morgana exclaimed in anger.

Dex smirked, "Evil Spirit feel Dex's Wrath! Heavenly Golden Flower Beam!"

Just before Demon Successors were about to attack, Dex and Richie screamed wildly. The latter fired their Heavenly Golden Glower Beam at the former off. Shewas thrown off to a far away from their home. Demon Successors turned and looked at Dex and RIchie.

Dex scoffed, "Who wants to piece of me?"

"Retreat!" Cinder ordered.

Demon Successors quickly turned and ran off at once. Even Bash did the same thing as well. And before he could regroup with others, he turned and gave Twinkle a gentle smile while she was stunned and surprise yet relief to know about him.

Dex, Richie Cutie Mark Crusaders and even Diamond Tiara came to them. The former all asked if the latter were alright or not. All three of them answered back to their friends that they were alright and fine.

Dex hugged Twinkle and Maya, "I'm glad you're alright. And I'm so sorry too. Please forgive me for asking you to let your guard down for befriending Bash."

"Grandpa, it's okay," Twinkle said calmly while patted Tao's back, "I'm okay. And actually, you were right about him. Maybe Demon can change."

Dex hummed before sighed as he departed, "I hope we're right about this."

Twiinkle nodded as she turned and looked at Diamond Tiara who looked away in shame. The former bully was too ashamed to face her because she bullied Twinkle a lot, and so as the latter's friends.

"Thank you, Diamond Tiara," Twinle thanked while bowed down as well, "For saving mine and our friends' live. And I forgive you too for all the things you have done."

Diamond Tiara gasped, "Really?"

Twinkle nodded, "Really. And I'm giving you a chance too. As my grandfather once said, everypony deserve the second chance."

Diamond Tiara let her tears of joy out as she hugged Nyx while smiling happily, "Thank you so much, Twinkle."

Everyone smiled happily. Diamond Tiara proved herself that she can be a better pony, instead of being meanie spoiled rich brat. Nyx also finally giving the bully a second chance now. Diamond Tiara then departed from hugging Twinkle. She wiped the tears off.

"There's one more thing need to do. To the schoolhouse now!"

At the Ponyville Schoolhouse, both Cheerilee and students were waiting and wondering of what happen next. Their proposal for playground repairs and replacement has been denied by school board. What can they do to change the school board's mind.

Cutie Mark Crusaders, Diamond Tiara, Dex and Richie have arrived. Diamond Tiara approached to the door. Everyone wondered what is Diamond Tiara planning to do. Can she changed school board's mind about the proposal? Or will she make the wrong choice?

As the door opened, Spoiled Rich emerged while spotting Diamond Tiara stood before her. She wasn't please about it especially Diamond Tiara for failing her a lot.

"I just happened to be here for the school board meeting, and this is what I see when we adjourn? My daughter associating with confused, insignificant lowlifes? Socializing with their kind is not how you move up in Equestria!" Spoiled Rich remarked angrily. She sighed, "I'm truly disappointed in her."

Diamond Tiara looked down in shame while others feel sorry for her. Instead of showing her shame and upset looks, she shown her firm and determined looks. She looked up and faced at her approaching mother. She had enough as she decided to tell what she wanted.

"No, mother! I am not!" Diamond Tiara protested. Spoiled Rich was surprise as well as others. She continued, "You've spent your life acting like a high horse and raised me to follow in your hoofprints! At first I thought this was fine, but then I finally realized I wanted something you don't have – friends!"

Everyone gasped in surprise and shock while Twinkle and her friends weren't because Diamond Tiara was the one who saved Twinkle, Carly, and Maya from Demon Successors.

"That's enough, Diamond Tiara! Step away from those blank flanks!" Spoiled Rich remarked while glaring at Cutie Mark Crusaders.

Dex gave a whack on Spoiled Rich's head while remarked, "You are very bad influence to the children especially this little one."

Richie nodded in agreement, "Sensei's right. You claimed you cared for her. And now it's time to prove it."

Diamond Tiara shook her head as she approached Cutie Mark Crusaders and said, "These are the Cutie Mark Crusaders, and they are my friends! You need to stop calling them such mean and hurtful names! They are working harder to get their cutie marks than anypony I've ever seen! And they will get them exactly when they discover their true talent, which I guarantee will be amazing! I saved them from danger because I owed them a big apology for the things I have done to them."

Everyone was surprised and amazed by how nice and caring Diamond Tiara is. Even Spoiled Rich was surprised by her daughter's action. She actually defending and apologizing to Cutie Mark Crusaders?!

"Now, will you please deliver this to father?" Diamond Tiara asked as she gave the piece of paper to Spoiled Rich.

"Yes, of course, dear..." Spoiled Rich said in defeat as she took it by teeth. As she walked away, she muttered, "She actually stood up on me - her own mother. I'm amazed. She actually helping others? I wonder what did my husband teach her."

As soon as Spoiled Rich waked away, Diamond Tiara approached Cutie Mark Crusaders as she commented,

"I have to thank you, Crusaders. Obviously I've known since I got my cutie mark that my talent is getting other ponies to do what I want. I just asked my father if he could donate the money for the new playground equipment!"

Everyone cheered wildly and happily. They finally get the playground repaired and replaced, all thanks to Diamond Tiara!

Diamond Tiara approached Pipsqueak, "I knew you were worried for a second there, weren't you? Ha! Well, I think it's all gonna work out just fine, Mister President!"

Pipsqueak smiled, "I hate to admit it. You almost got me there. You take the lead for saving us. Shall we?"

Diamond Tiara smiled, "We shall."

Diamond Tiara: We'll build a playground
For all of us to enjoy
So full of games
There's enough for each girl and boy

Diamond Tiara then led her classmates and friends to the playground area while explaining of what she wanted to do with it for not herself, but others. They were amazed and surprised by her change of heart. They glad to help her now.

Diamond Tiara: I want to help and do
Everything that I can
I'm here to show you I changed
Listen up, here's the plan

As soon as form Dark Warriors Trio brought the crates of playground equipment, the school ponies began working on rebuilding and replacing the broken items with new ones. Diamond Tiara led the group of what needs to be done such as she instructed the strongest to move the broken merry-go-round and the colt with strong teeth to carry and move broken see-saw.

Diamond Tiara smiled as she took a glance at her flank, which glowed a bit of light. She smiled happily.

Diamond Tiara: There's so much I can do
To help everypony else
I see the light that shines in me
I know I can be my better self

Everyone worked together very hard in getting and setting the playground equipment up. Diamond Tiara even helped Silver Spoon, and others set the fences as they both reconciled.

Diamond Tiara: I can free the past
'Cause now the future's bright for me
My cutie mark has set me free
To do what's right and be the pony I want to be
And be the pony I want to be!

After spending hours on working with playground, it is done. The playground is set. Everyone, including Cheerilee, Pipsqueak, Dinky Doo and Twist, commented and cheered for Diamond Tiara. Dex, Richie and seven Cutie Mark Crusaders have their own chats.

"Thank you, Grandpa," Twinkle thanked happily. Dex turned and looked at her. She smiled as she hugged him, "For giving me the best advice. Ponies deserve second chances."

He smiled as he patted Twinkle's head gently, "I'm glad to help. And I'm glad you did it."

Apple Bloom hummed, "I've been thinkin', Crusaders. We spend an awful lot of time fussin' and frettin' tryin' to discover our true talent. But when we take a little time off, we end up helpin' other ponies figure out their true talent!"

Sweetie Belle nodded, "Yeah, and I think that's way more important than worrying about our cutie marks, don't you?"

"Absolutely! I don't care if I ever get my cutie mark" Scootaloo remarked as she jumped for the moment while flapped her wings for the moment. She landed before held both Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle's shoulders, "as long as I get to hang out with my best friends."

Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo hugged each other happily before they departed while smiling.

Blonk smirked, "Now that's what I'm talking about. Scutie Mark, Cutie Mark. Who cares?"

Carly nodded, "Blonk, you make a very good point. Friendship is the true treasure for ponies. And I'm glad our founders know it."

Apple Bloom turned and looked at Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo, "So what do you say, Crusaders? Want to just focus on helpin' others find their cutie marks?"

Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle cheered, "Yeah!"

As three main Cutie Mark Crusaders gave a hoof clap, a sudden powerful magic appeared on their hooves. It surprised them. It then slowly surged through their bodies to the ground. They then floated in midair for the moment. A crimson, pinkish and purplish glowing aura-like appeared on their bodies as their flanks even glow brighter.

Everyone spotted it as they watched and wondered what's happening next. As soon as three Cutie Mark Crusaders landed on the ground, they slowly got up while regaining their conscious. Everyone then chatted and awed in amazement upon looking at Cutie Mark Crusaders. Why?

"What happened?" Sweetie Bell asked.

Apple Bloom asked, "What's goin' on?"

"It's your cutie marks! They're amazing!" Diamond Tiara answered.

Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo turned and looked at the flanks. They spotted something surprise and amaze them a lot. Theirs have same shield symbols with stripes of red, pink and purple with symbols - A Love on Apple icon for Apple Bloom, Music Eight Note on Star icon for Sweetie Belle and Lightning Shape on Wing Icon for Scootaloo!

Cutie Mark Crusaders gasped as they looked at each other while showing happiness, relief and joyfulness. They bounced happily as they finally did it. They then pushed their flanks on each other. They finally earned Cutie Marks!

"We all got the same cutie mark! Cutie Mark Crusaders forever!"

Twinkle cheered, "I knew it! I knew you all can do it! You all did it!"

"Now for the encore!" Maya cheered.

Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo departed as they all hugged each other happily. The rest of Cutie Mark Crusaders approached and joined in hugging with them happily. They all began singing together as one.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: We were searching for our cutie marks
For a while there
Trying to find out how we fit in

Cutie Mark Crusaders went around of Cheerilee and schoolmates for once. They then headed off at once, followed by the school staffs and classmates. They all marched out of the Ponyville Schoolhouse together.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: So many ways we've tried before
But we kept on trying more
'Cause the Cutie Mark Crusaders don't give in

Scootaloo: Now we know what it took all along

Sweetie Belle: And our journey here is never really done

Apple Bloom: For it is more than just a mark
It's a place for us to start

Cutie Mark Crusaders and their friends walked across the main street of Ponyville. Everyone spotted it. They all turned and looked at the little ones walking on the streets like they were the parade. They even cheered for the little ones too.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: An adventure that has only just begun
We'll make our mark
Show the world what we can do
We'll make our mark
Helping fillies to break through
To the ultimate reward of a cutie mark

Mane Six, Omege Force, Team Thunder (Ashely, Spike, Swift Ice, Crystal Flare, Drake Trio, Bishop and Star Thunder) and Conner heard the news. And they couldn't be anymore happier and prouder than before. Pinkie Pie swiftly and quickly setting and preparing the party up for Cutie Mark Crusaders in gaining their own Cutie Marks after long five years.

Pinkie stood before everyone, "All right, everypony! Get ready for the biggest cute-ceañera celebration ever!"

The ponies cheered wildly and happily. They all can't wait to party.

Applejack sniffed happily as she approached Apple Bloom, along with Granny Smith and Big McIntosh. They were all crying in joy. They were so happy and proud to see the youngest member of Apple Family finally earned her Cutie Mark.

Applejack approached as she hugged Apple Bloom, "Oh, sugarcube, if Mom and Dad were here, they'd be so proud of ya."

Both Granny Smith and Big McIntosh smiled and nodded in agreement.

Apple Bloom sniffed as she hugged Applejack, "Oh... Thanks, Applejack."

Rainbow Dash approached Scootaloo as she gave the latter a noogie for the moment. Scootaloo then jumped on Rainbow Dash as the blood sisters hugged each other passionately and happily.

Rainbow Dash: I'm so proud of you, little buddy
You've taught me a thing or two

Rarity held Sweetie Belle's hooves up while looking at her sincerely and happily. As Sweetie Belle blushed happily of being commented, Rarity held and hugged her passionately and happily.

Rarity: You've inspired everypony around you
And you've inspired me too

Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Applejack: You've made your mark
Done Equestria so proud
You've made your mark
And we're here to sing it loud
For the ultimate reward of your cutie mark

At their clubhouse, they decided to have one more meeting about their next mission. Cutie Mark Crusaders were proud of it. Apple Bloom stood on her judge stand as she asked.

"Well, what do you think, Crusaders? Were these cutie marks totally worth waiting for or what?"

Sweetie Belle nodded, "Yeah! I can't wait to see who we're gonna help next!"

Twinkle giggled happily, "And don't forget us. Not only you helped our members get the Cutie Marks, but also we helped you on the mission. Crusaders, can we solve it?!"

Cutie Mark Crusaders cheered, "YES, WE CAN!"

Three Main and Founders of Cutie Mark Crusaders recalled all the adventures they have been through, followed by their honorary members and friends. They recalled how they founded their team, crazy hunt on Cutie Marks for various events, the morality and lessons they learned, helping Twinkle to be a good pony involving in Mystic War Three, venturing to Demon Land for medicine to save their friends and family and now helping ponies solve their Cutie Marks.

All of Cutie Mark Crusaders were proud of the events they have done in their lives. They now finally deserved the greatest reward in their lives - Cutie Marks.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: We started out just three
Crusaders driven to see
What we find in our hearts
Discover our destiny
And here we are, best friends
About to start it again
An adventure that never will end

The Cutie Mark Crusaders went out from their clubhouse as they regrouped with everyone.

Cutie Mark Crusaders: We'll make our mark
Helping fillies most in need
We'll make our mark
So each one of them succeeds
