#1-Solar Filly Landing

It was a bright and early day in the city of Canterlot and everyone was enjoying themselves as Luster Dawn daughter of Starlight Glimmer and Sunburst had on her rollerblades and rolled down the Lower East Side.

"What... The Lower East Side without Dane's Knich Niche? No way!" Luster Dawn exclaimed as her favorite shop was closed.

"It been those blackouts, we've been having, Lusty," Arlge explained. "Lost batches means lost business. So they put the kibosh on the knish." Then he tossed her sandwich.

"Oh, but those knishes were knish-a-licious!" Luster takes a bit of the sandwich. "So is this sammie."

"Hey at least your family's spot is hoppin'," Arlge pointed to the community roller rink 'Rollerside'

...

"Mixer's is good to Mom!" Luster had fixed the mixer for Mother, Starlight Glimmer.

"Fryer is ready to fry!"

"Thank you, sweet child. We're back baby, and these wings are spicy as the girl who made'em," Aunt Celestial Light said.

"What do you think? Blind Skate Date Night?" Her dad Sunburst asked. "Skateking but blindfolded."

"Sounds like a winner to me, dad."

"Luster Dawn, you get yourself out here with old pops," her uncle Rapid Mark said to her.

"And say no to the longest reining Roller Jam King? Do I look like a fool?" Luster asked before showing her dance moves along with her uncle in the rink.

"Don't sweat those blackouts, Lower East Side!" Starlight said. "They can take our power, but they can't take our spirit!"

Then the lights went out.

"Oh come on!"

"Another blackout?"

Moments later...

"How many blackouts is that this month?" Celestial asked.

"One too many blackouts," Rapid Mark replied.

"Are we going to lose the business, Pops? Like the kinsh stop?" Luster asked.

"Hey, hey, hey. We'll get through this. What do we do when going gets tough?"

"We roll with it," Everyone said.

"That's what I'm talking about. I am so motivated."

At a nearby power plant, a figure was draining the power directly into him.

"Now we're talking."

The next morning at Eastside Elementary School...

As Luster Dawn was writing in her journal someone toss a rubric cube at her.

"Do the thing. Come on, do the thing!"

"Hello, Garble. Again?" Luster took the cube and begin to solve it.

"What's that? I mean, I get it, because I'm good at math, but.." Stickler looked at her journal.

"Oh, so glad you asked, I think it's some kind of crazy power generator... this scientist was working on some super secret project for the space program and then she up and vanished and all that's left of her work are these incomplete blueprints I found on the internet..."

"Nerd Alert. Level Five!" Garble joked.

"Anyway if I can crack this, the Lower East Side would have its power grid."

Then every one gave her dumbfounded looks.

"Huh? Coach Hawkins?"

"I'm only subbing in science till they find permanent hire."

"So is it done yet or what?"

Luster showed him the completed cube.

"I can do that."

"Awesome," Garble said. "Ha! Silverstar's filming again!"

"What up, Canterlot. Silverstar. I have to ask: What's the deal with Chicken Fried Steak anyway? Is it chicken or steak? Comment below and be sure to hit that like button, people," Silverstar uploaded his latest video only to get a thumbs down. "Garble, I know it was you!"

"Nerd!" Garble smirked.

After school, Luster headed to Rollerside only to see the door missing a handle.

"Oh, no," Luster sounded worried then headed inside. "Is everyone okay?"

"We're okay, sweetheart," Rapid Mark said.

"What happened?"

"Someone tried to rob the place during the blackout but thanks to you, they didn't take a thing."

"Mm-mm, your battery-powered security system with that sweet surprise worked like a charm," Celestial added.

"Argle wasn't so lucky. They cleaned out the entire deil. They even took the cold cuts."

"Meanwhile, blackouts mean more crime, not to mention lost business which means we get pushed out of the community we love!" Starlight exclaimed then tightly held Luster. "I am not raising my baby in Slackware. No disrespect to Slackware."

"Well then, somebody called the Rainbooms, the Shadow Seven, or even the Siren Squad. I bet they can solve it."

"Sorry, kiddo, those guys have bigger fish to fry, literally," Celestial said. "I heard that Trickster broke out of Blackgate again."

"We just gotta roll with it, baby," Sunburst told her.

Hours Later at Luster Room...

"Hungry, Lusty," Starlight asked as she came in.

"Not really."

"Still working on that thing that's going fix our problems?"

"Well, it's like you always say, one person can make a difference, right?"

"Especially when that girl is you. I wish I could help you with all of that but I can help you with some inspiration," Starlight gave her mixtape.

"Thanks...

"Does say radioactive? You're not building that thing, right?"

"Of course not, completely theoretical.'

"Okay Good. No radioactive stuff in the apartment," Starlight walked out.

"Well, technically it's not in the apartment," Luster smirked as she headed down to her private bunker.

"This is impressive, but should I try?"

Then one of her monitors showed Starlight and Sunburst.

Well, how the books looking?

Not good, if things don't turn around quickly. We may have to sell the rink.

"I have to fix this," Luster said as she activated the generator. "I may know what this thing does, but I have to try."

The computer showed numbers and a green light.

"Holy cow, it's working! Yes! Yes!" then it started to fizzle. "Oh, Maigkarp! Too much juice!"

Then the machine fired a portal.

"It's a portal generator!"

Something came out of the portal and that something was a real-life dragon.

"Cool."

Then the dragon made its way out of the subway.

"Not cool, so not cool!" Luster chased after it.

Meanwhile...

"Hey, guys, Silverstar here, talking to the people about fave blackout attire," Silverstar said as the dragon came by.

"Please don't destroy Canterlot," Luster followed it all over the town. "No! Stop!"

Then the dragon came to a halt.

"Well, that was easy." Then the dragon mouth at a hot dog stand. "Hot dogs! Do you like hot dogs?"

Then Luster gave it some then the dragon her face

"Look, I'm not your mom, no matter how cute you are," Then Luster heard a click as Silverstar took a photo of her then the power fizzled out as the figure from before was draining the power.

"What is that?" Silverstar shreiked.

"That is why we've been having blackouts. He's stealing the power!"

The figure chuckled and then left in a flash then some debris was about to fall on Silverstar.

"Look out! Help her!"

The dragon caught the fallen debris with its mouth where Luster heard police sirens.

"Come on!" Luser said as the two left Silverstar.

Later...

"I told you, man. What I've been telling you for the last 40 years?" Rapid Mark asked.

"That there are lizards in the sewers and it's only a matter of time before they rise, " Celestial said.

"Please we all know this about 'The Man' paying no attention to this community," Starlight suggested.

"ActIt'sme electric dude sucking the power. Like an electric vampire," Luster said then everyone laughed.

"Now the lizard uprising sounds legit."

...

"So what do you think? Pretty dope setup? It's an old subway station. I just added a fusion reactor, em-shielding, triple reductant, know the basics," Luster said then the dragon was trying to eat the portal generator. "Oop, oop. No! Not food! That's what brought you here. See it was designed by this super cool scientist, Solar Filly. She's my hero."

"Nobody knows her real name. I was trying to replicate her work and I thought it was a power source, turns out it rips holes in the space-time continuum, and well, you were here for the rest. Your trip here used half the juice. It took forever to synthesize that fuel. There's barely enough to get you home."

Then the dragon licked her face again.

"Does that mean you don't won't go back?" Luster asked with the dragon roaring in response. "But what have I even done with you? I can't have you stomping around, scaring people like last night. But you did save somebody too. Oh, that was crazy, right? As if the LWES doesn't have enough to deal with, now we got a supervillain? What we read is some super..." Luster gave it some thought and then realized something.

"Superheroes! That could be us! You and I! It's perfect! My brains, your brawn. We can reap people! What am I saying? Who's gonna take a 13-year-old superhero, seriously, although I am the smartest 13-year-old I know and have a dragon! But I don't even have any superpowers but my brain is my superpower! I could build gadgets trick out my blade, and all sorts of stuff! I mean who else is gonna do it?"

"The fate of our community is on the line, right? So what do you think, big guy? Wanna be superheroes with me?" Luster asked with it nodding. "Wo-hoo! But listen, we gotta do this on the D-L or my family will freak. Nobody can know."

...
...

"Love the crib, digging the crazy genius vibe," Silverstar exclaimed. "Or what this, one of your inventions?"

"No, my mom gave it to me, no clue what it is. Look are you gonna turn me in?"

"No, I came to say thanks for saving me from that electro dude!" Silverstar explained.

"I would have been deader than bedazzled denim without you or red buddy! Speaking of where is he? Where did come from? Tell me everything!"

Luster took him to the secret bunker and explained her idea of being a superhero of her community.

"Then I thought who else is going do it, the fate of our community is on the line, right? And like my mom said: One person can make a big difference. So what do you think?"

"About you being a superhero?"

"Yeah!"

"No way, Jose!"

"Why not?"

"Not in the outfit. No client is going out looking like that."

"Full-service management and public relations. I can turn you two into the most beloved superheroes in the world. I'm digital marketing, viral videos, personal appearances, and merch opportunities. The lab is going to make a great playset."

"Playset? Have you lost your mind?"

"Truth I can be a bit too much, but honestly I don't see it. Look you're going to inspire people, just like you inspire me. I can get your message across the town. I can help you help people! And don't pay me a dime. Followers are my currency."

"A lot to take in... all right let's do this thing!"

"Yes!"

Over the next couple of hours, Luster Dawn and Silver Star went to work on building Luster's super suit, once they were done Luster look herself in the mirror.

"Zang! We did the thang, thang!"

"Oh yeah, we did the thang! I can sell this. Just one small detail, your superhero name!"

"Do I reed one?"

"If you don't take yourself seriously, no one else will... as for your costume big guy," Silverstar said then the Dragon snorted and walked away. "Fine, go naked then."

Later when night has fallen...

"Until we can find the electric dude, the best we can do is stop the blackout crime in its tracks," Luster said then heard a loud thud forcing the trio to hide.

Then Luster activated her goggles to see two thugs robbing the pawn shop.

"It's those fools that try to rob Rollerside," Luster realized.

"How do you know?"

"Let's just say I might have put a sweet surprise in my security system."

"What do we do?"

"Recon then attack. While you capture it all and make us famous?"

"Yeah, good idea! Hey on an unrelated note, my hands are shaking."

"Oh, my entire body is shaking. But my aunt told me bravery is what you do when you are flat-out scared."

"Old peeps are the best."

"I know. my aunt is so cute. Okay, let's do this!" Luster went to confront them.

"Uh, hold it right there, dirtbags!"

"And you are," Thug I asked

"All you need to know is you're going down and my best friend will make sure of that!"

"You mean that the giant lizard that's eating through a trash can," Thug I pointed out as the dragon was eating inside of a dumpster.

"Not good!" Luster Dawn face palmed herself as the thugs were in their car.

"So, uh, we're going to go headed and leave you to you're superheroing. Bye!" Then they left.

"Okay, Delete that footage," Silverstar said.

Back at the bunker...

"If I don't clean this crime, the LES is going to go downhill and my parents are going to have to sell the rink. And the next thing I know I'm moving to Slackware. No disrespect to Slackware."

"No, of course not. We can't let happen, I won't let it happen."

"Thanks. I have an idea. Your part involves high-level messing around on the internet."

"That's what I call a Tuesday. And you?"

"Oh, I'm making sure that this super team is in super sync. Epic Training Montage!"

Much later, both she and the dragon were sitting on a rooftop looking at the night sky.

"I been meaning to ask you, what's your name anyway?" Luster asked then it did a bunch of noises. "That will fit on a T-shirt."

...

"Bam! Thanks to my mad internet skills, I found the robbers trying to auction all the stolen stuff on the web. I snagged the address."

"Nice going, Sliverstar!"

"Yeah, so what have been up to?"

"Trained a mystical beast, maxing on my gadget, and became fluent in dragon speak. I even learn his name which roughly translates to Terrifying Fire Beast Who Will End Of All Things. But hear me out. We discussed it, we're going with Arcane instead."

"Arcane Dragon? I can work with that!"

"Then what are we waiting for?"

At the robbers' hideout...

"Be honest, how the face paint looking!" Thug I asked then the door opened to see Luster and Arcane Dragon.

"I believe the adjective is smurfy," Luster replied.

"Really? Little miss superhero without a name, back for more humiliation?"

"I did pick one name. Arcane Dragon!"

Arcane Dragon through the delivery truck door and roared making the thugs run. Then Luster did an energy blast from her gauntlets and zapped one of them to the ground.

"Fetch."

Arcane Dragon had him by the mouth.

"Attaboy!"

Then Arcane got a smell of fresh salami.

"Arcane. Leave it!" Luster told him. "Come on, listen to mama... leave the cold cuts!"

Arcane resited the smell of fresh meat and used its tail to smash the table.

"Yes! Who's a good boy? You are!"

"Uh, the one who never talks is getting away!" Silverstar exclaimed.

Just as Thug II was bailing, Luster took out her Bubble Blaster and trapped him.

"Got him!"

"Now that is quality footage!" Silverstar them the three the electrical figure draining power again.

"The electrical dude!" Both of them said.

"Hey I'm not a dude, it's Thunderbolt! Oh, look at you! That cosplay is sweet! Who are you supposed to be?"

"Uhh..." Luster stammered herself.

"Okay, you work on that, gotta bolt. I have a day job. BYE!" Thunderbolt left in a streak of thunder.

Hours later at the bunker.

"Hey, enjoy the win, will ya?" Silverstar asked the pacing Luster Dawn. "The big takeaway is we superheored. And don't stress about the name we'll sleep on it maybe do some guided meditation.

"Solar Filly. I'm gonna be Solar Filly. Solar Filly and Arcane Dragon!"

The next day...

"Alright new mission: Stopping Thunderbolt means no more sudden blackouts, and save The LES! But first, we need to find him. So I'm upcycling whatever this thing is into the Multispectrum Moon Scanner! It's gonna take a while to isolate his energy signature. Until then we can help the folks around the Lower East Side.

As her scanner was searching for Thunderbolt, Solar Filly, and Arcane Dragon assisted anyone in the Lower East Side. Once it got a lock on him they headed to sewers to find him draining power. Solar Filly armed her Bubble Blaster and fired a bubble at him, sealing him.

"Now, Arcy!" Solar Filly said then Arcane Dragon came busting through and kick the bubble sending Thunderbolt flying all over the place.

"That's right! Bolt boy! It's time for you to bounce on outta here!"

Thunderbolt popped out of the bubble and did an electric blast at Arcane Dragon and sent him into a wall.

"Arcane!" Solar Filly shrieked as Thunderbolt snapped his fingers which caused a blackout.

"Oh, snap," Solar Filly exclaimed as she encage her night vision goggles. "Are we dead?"

Then Solar Filly dodged an electric blast from Thunderbolt.

"Okay. Not dead."

Thunderbolt circles around then once he spots her, he fired an electric at her, but Solar Filly dodges it.

"Skitter, skitter, skitter," Thunderbolt tauted.

"Enough of this noise," Solar Filly exclaimed as she was right behind him.

Solar Filly took out her Halberd and prepared to strike only for Thunderbolt to avoid it, then grabbed her and took off her mask that revealed her face.

"Sweet sparks of lighting! You're just a kid?"

"A-doy. Solar Filly. It's in the name."

"Oh, I could never hurt a child. Most of the time."

Just as Thunderbolt prepare to strike, Arcane Dragon roared at Thunderbolt making him drop Solar Filly, and then thunder punched Arcane Dragon in the gut making the dragon collapse.

"Arcane!" Luster ran to him just as Thunderbolt escaped. "Arcane! Say something!"

Arcane Dragon managed to get up.

"Okay. Come on. We need to bail," Luster grabbed her mask as they escape.

At the bunker...

"Let the creme do its thing and rest," Luster said to Arcane then walked over to Silverstar. "What are we going to do? Arcane is banged pretty bad."

"I don't know, but we can figure it out," then Silverstar looked at his phone. "Oh Shoot, it's almost time for school!"

...

In the kitchen, Starlight and the others watched the news from last night just as Luster Dawn walked out of the door with her backpack.

The Lower East Side experience yet another blackout overnight And Solar Filly and Arcane Dragon were seen leaving the area.

"What!? Not Solar Filly! No!" Starlight was furious. "She did so much for folks around here. Not buying it. She can't be behind this."

"The dragon probably dragged her into this," Rapid Mark suggested.

"I just wonder where the parents are. They got to be all kinds of dumb to not know what their own is up to," Sunburst said.

"Let's not rush to judgment. We may have not the whole story," Celestial said.

...

"Okay protons and electrons are like offense and defense, when losing an electron it is like a red card calling soccer," Coach Dunlap explained to the class.

"Not a bad way to the explanation on electrons, Coach, I'm Mr. Zapstrike, the new science teacher," he introduce himself as Luster Dawn put two and two together to realize he was Thunderbolt.

"Oh praise, Jesus, I was running out of sports references."

"You just rest your noggin and pass the baton to me. See what did there?"

"Oh, I got it."

After school...

"What? Thunderbolt is your teacher?" Silverstar shrieked.

"Yeah, she's my teacher."

"So glad I'm not in 5th-period science. So what's the plan now?"

"I'm not sure what's our move, I need some alone time."

"No problem, let me know when you got something," Silverstar headed out of the bunker leaving a downtrodden Luster Dawn alone.

Much later...

"Hey, Luster, why the long face?" Celestial asked.

"We're selling the rink! And it's all because of me," Luster said.

"Hold on. How come?"

"I can fixing things is my specialty, and wanted to fix this too, if I'm so smart, why couldn't I figure it out?"

"This is not on you. Even with that bright mind of yours, you can't do everything. That's why you gotta learn about the people who love you. You got me, Uncle Rapid, your parents, and that new friend of yours, right?"

"Yeah, Silverstar. Probably messed that up."

"Well if you're lookin' to fix something, it's never too late."

"You're right. Thanks, Aunt Celestial."

...

"Are you sure you want to take on Thunderbolt?"

"I'm sure, someone gotta stick up for the Lower East Side," Luster said as she puts on her Solar Filly costume.

"Solar Filly Magic! Okay, no publicity is bad publicity except when the whole city thinks you're the bad guy!"

"We gotta expose Thunderbolt as the real villain. Luckily, he needs to recharge and there charging station around the school."

"But what if no one sees? What if you can't take her out?"

"Failing ain't an option," Solar Filly as she skated through the city. "If you want to stop me, you have to catch me!"

Solar Filly managed to get most of the community to chase her willingly as she was tracking Thunderbolt to an automatic bike station where he already had started to drain the power.

"Yes, daddy needs his coffee," Thunderbolt exclaimed.

"See! He's the real problem of the blackouts!" Solar Filly said as she arrived.

"No way! Mr. Zapstrike is a supervillain?" Garble said.

"Oh man, now I have to teach sciscienceain," Coach DulDunlapoaned.

"Okay, thunder dude, let's dance!" A Bodybuilder said.

"How the Electric Slide!" Thunderbolt zapped the people out of the park.

"Hey! You want them, you've gotta go through me!" Solar Filly threatened.

"Be careful what you wish for!"

Thunderbolt did an electric blast at Solar Filly which she dodges and accidentally drop her scanner.

"Hey, where did you get that old cassette player? Nice!" Coach Dunlap said.

"That's what this thing is?" Solar Filly asked before ducking from Thunderbolt's electric blasts. "Well, now it does a lot more, like hacking into the park plumbing system! Water and electricity never mix, son!"

Just as Thunderbolt was catching, Solar Filly engaged the sprinklers only for sma all bursts of water to come out.

"What!? Stupid internet lag!"

The sprinklers came on too late as Thunderbolt helped her.

"Saynora, sister!" Thunderbolt said.

Thunderbolt prepare for his thunder punch only for Arcane Dragon to come from behind slammed him with his tail and hurled him right into sprinklers and fizzled out a but

"Arcane, you're okay!" Solar Filly exclaimed before hugging him. "I love you, you bug lizard!"

"This is my best work yet," Silverstar said. "Okay everyone that's a wrap!"

Then suddenly a streak of lighting passed and the trio looked at the sky thunderbolt was back on his feet.

"Time for some reshoots!"

"Run!"

Solar Filly and Arcane Dragon ran as fast as they could from Thunderbolt.

"Check back for Solar Filly content. Like and subscribe. Bye!" Silverstar ended the live feed and contacted Solar Filly. "What are you gonna do? She's like living lighting

"Living Lighting. That's it! If she's like lighting we gotta ground her! Metal conduct electricity, we hit her with a metal rod that's connected to a wire leading to a gris under the ground! If it works. all the electricity he stole will be absorbed and dissipated safely! Science! We just need a big enough lighting rod."

"Okay, AD Listen up!" Solar Filly whispered to him. "Got it big guy! Ready, Break!"

Both of them split which made Thunderbolt chase Solar Filly just as she engaged her rocket boots

Thunderbolt blasted her but missed then Solar Filly counted by firing energy blasts with some making contact.

"Dang girl, you got some aim!"

"I was an expert marksman!"

Then her headset rang showing Starlight's number.

"Hey mom, can't talk right now!"

"Dude, we're literally in the middle of something!"

Luster? Where are you? And what's with all the noise?

"Just hanging around the city!"

Okay well when you get home we'd like to talk to you about--

"Okay. Cool. I love you, mom, bye."

Just as Arcane Dragon grabbed the school flag pole, Solar Filly hid from Thunderbolt at Rollerside.

"Okay lost her," Solar Filly said as she began to set up the trap then suddenly...

"What the heck is going on out here? Solar Filly?" Rapid Mark asked as he, Starlight, Sunburst, and Celestial were outside confused.

"Hey! Uh, civilians! Take cover!" Solar Filly exclaimed as she got blasted from behind by Thunderbolt and prepared to fire.

"You ain't lay a hand on her!" Starlight and the others came to Solar Fily's side.

"This is touching...not!" Thunderbolt gagged then turn to see Arcane Dragon down the street. "Can't have your lizard pal of yours sneaking up on me stick around, I'm not done with you."

"Are you okay, sweetheart?" Celestial asked.

"I'm okay," She replied.

ArArcaneraogn fended Thunderbolt's attacks.

"I need that flag pole," Solar Filly reached r it and tied it up with the wire. "Time to juice this puppy...

Solar Filly put a jetpack on the flag pole and threw it making Arcane Dragon duck and hitting Thunderbolt.

...And taking our back!" Solar Filly exclaimed as Thunderbolt was completely drained and the power came back on.

The next day, the Lower East Side was filled with excitement as the power was restored thanks to Solar Filly and Arcane Dragon.
