The return (or introduction)

The tightening of bolts and the sparks of welding could be seen and heard as the teleporter was nearing completion, any moment, mane-iac would have access to the world of the ponies. It had been 5 years since their last encounter, and 4 and a half years since the long-haired archenemy was even an "archenemy".

Shortly after the mane-iac was imprisoned in her own impressive mane, she was rehabilitated at the maretropolis mental asylum and hairstyling school, as a bonus, she got a new braided mane style for no additional charge.

She was returned to the city a changed mare with a new goal in life, to right her wrongs, to change her image, and to return her company to its former prosperity and glory.

But her "mane" goal was always to see the ponies who had defeated her, to apologize to them in person, and today would be that day, she would venture out into this strange new world of magic.

"Alright, sane mane," one of her henchmen said "it took us five years but we THINK this baby oughta send you over"

"Excellent" she replied "I KNEW these old factory gates would be useful for something"

She smiled with glee at her worker's success "oh, I just can't WAIT to make amends with all my new soon-to-be-friends," she said, "maybe we can become best friends forever, make bracelets scrunchies, and from there spread our message of peace throughout the whole wide world!!!!"

She cackled maniacally in the way the old her would, for she still had a few screws loose from her time as a villain.

With no further delay, She stepped towards the entrance of the great portal, excited as all hell, for she knew in just a few moments, it would come to life and she could begin her expedition to parts unknown,

"Before I go in..." she announced "..if I don't make it back, let it be known that my years working with you all have made this entire journey worth it" her henchmen showed her a similar level of gratitude. "and wheater or not I come back, I'm giving you all a RAISE!" the workers cheered for their kindly boss and her announcement.

And with that, a henchman flicked the switch and from the gate, a light blue spark of electricity shot from it, creating a glowing green wormhole. Mane-iac, unafraid of whatever fate had in store for her, she slowly backed up to get a running (or in this case trotting start) she galloped into the strange portal, and disappeared from her world, sent flying through the Deseret, a veritable mcdonalds slide, sending her this way and that until finally, she landed on the cool, damp grass of an unfamiliar location.

Still weary from the landing, she craned her neck up, and saw the entrance of a great castle made of crystals. Out came from it twilight sparkle and spike.

As soon as she was able, she got up, faced the princess, and bowed graciously.

"Oh, hello, do I know you"

"Think you do, I'm who they used to call the mane-iac, and you are"

She offered an explanation as to where she has been since their battle. How she has reformed in the past few years and had come to mend her ways...

"I was wrong to dismiss you as "useless" you saw my weakness in my arrogance, you bested me, and that makes you a true hero"

Spike welled up a little from these inspiring words

(don't be alarmed this part is just to satisfy the thousand-word requirement until the story is fully developed_
