The Endless Night

Author's Note

Takes place after Trials of Sarah - Spring Break: Return to Galar, arc on Quotev

And this gives some background on our new Alicorn OCs - Edge Blade, Tempest Sparkle, Snowdrop Winterfell and Glimmer Glow - which will play a major part in A New Mark and Tell Your Tale

The Endless Night

Spring Break had come and gone for Sarah and the gang and after saying goodbye to all their friends from Galar, with Zacian, Zamazenta, and their new family members: the Night Light family including the elder, the Mist Twister, Chien-Pao, and even Butter, Danish, Pastry, and Fritter, had returned home to Alola.

True to the news they heard concerning Sordward and Shielbert's fate, after they, Abby, and their followers confessed to their crimes, they were given a hefty term of community service and were sentenced for up to a year or so behind bars. Luckily, they quietly complied with the rulings as they had indeed learned their lesson and if they did have any complaints about anything, they didn't dare voice their opinions and make it worse for them so they were let off with a warning shot with their current punishment at hand.

The Night Light family was resting quietly in the Pokemon Dragon Heart Dome with the rest of their new family as they rested near the Mist Twister in the Grasslands area near the river; the new names of the dragons are as follows: the older Night Lights (the Elder - Aegis, Gale - the female, and her mate - Haze); the Night Light hatchlings (First/Oldest Son - Zap, Middle Child/Only Daughter - Splattertail, and the Second/Youngest Son - Goggles); and, the Titan Wing Mist Twister (Elder an Alder).

They fitted in well with the other dragons, Dart, Pouncer, Ruffrunner, and Thunder feeling ecstatic to know that they're no longer the only Night Lights around between Sarah and Race.

Sarah's new Fidough - Muffin, made quick friends with many of the younger and baby Pokemon that are their new siblings such as the baby Jungle Pokemon, Piplup, Skiddo, Snom, Appletun, and Buneary along with Skitty and Rapidash's children.

Chien-Pao, however, was socially awkward in his own right as he was tense around strangers and his sword-like teeth gave him a frankly intimidating appearance that seemed to have rubbed others in his new family down the wrong way upon first impressions. However, to his surprise, he found himself being welcomed by the Night Light hatchlings as they fluttered up to him and nuzzled him warmly; Zap, Splattertail, and Goggles, given their age, were all too young to be afraid of anything which got the others to follow their lead as they no longer felt afraid of him now thanks to them.

As for Eternatus, with the inclusion of Zacian and Zamazenta despite his coming to terms and making peace with them while they were in the moment, he was much more tolerable around the Warrior Pokemon than he once was. But, given his blunt and sarcastic as well as gruff nature, he was still irked about the whole thing despite his completed rehabilitation.

While poor Doug, David, Tsukumaro, and James bore the brunt of Donna (former queen), Nikki, and Delilah's shopping spree (the women having lots of bags on them for their husbands to carry on the way back), Leon, Victor, Gloria, and Hop managed to give David, Delilah, and their parents a full tour of the Galar Region and they were enthralled by what they saw. Their awestruck amazement only grew when Calyrex, Ching Wan, and Hashimoto extended the tour to introduce them to their homes of the Crown Tundra and the Isle of Armor while recapping their personal histories and how they met up with their daughter/granddaughter to them.

Now, it was April 6th on a Monday with Sarah and her friends all putting up a play at the Pokemon School. With much planning and preparations throughout the previous week and a little help from Discord with his magic and Queen Thorn and her SandWings for the music, they were now ready to present their play to everyone during the Pokemon School's Open House for the following summer term in nearly three months' time.

But, they weren't alone to make the play a reality as Stoick, Gobber, Henna, Edgar, Hiccup, Zenna, and the rest of the Viking Teens along with their dragons were invited to participate in the play as well and this worked wonders for them as they accepted the invitation, hoping to learn even a small but crucial part of the SandWings' unique culture.

The guests come from across Alola and this included some of the tourists coming to check out Alola while on vacation or a business trip when they heard about the school's only performance of it by chance and quick-shot poster advertisements.

Today, our heroes at the Pokemon School are putting on a play, the only performance! What's the play about, wait for the curtain to find out!

[New Theme Song - Drunken Lives (Young Hero Fong Sai Yuk - ft. Johnny Ip) {Roughly Translated Ver.}]

(The new opening begins when we see legions of Pokemon trainers and their Pokemon training in a giant stadium and amongst them, Sarah, Ash, and the Pokemon School gang are training with their own Pokemon, preparing for the most important chapter of their lives before the trainers and their Pokemon stood at attention and the gang got into a group fighting pose as the song begins. They will eventually take part in the finalized Alola League to determine who is the top Pokemon trainer in the entire Alola region)

When life is rough and too dark to see, my regrets wash over all of me~
Pain is immense but don't you cry or pout, you'll very soon find your way out~

(In small snippets and previews of what's to come or will be happening now, Sarah and her friends are living out their normal lives again after the demise of Lothor and Team Eclipse including Sophocles and Vikavolt taking part in a Vikavolt Race, training for the upcoming Alola League, the arrival of a little Pokemon looking like it's made from metal, and Mallow, Lana, and Lillie along with Sandy, the female Shaymin, and Snowy taking part in a TV program)

Live a life worth living, make it beautiful, and work hard to be strong and happy~
In the mortal world, your life is so meaningful, so go and prove your own mettle~

(All the while, at specific points in the last volume of the story, Race and Sarah reaffirm their love for each other while Gladion continues his family's mission to uncover more about their father, Mohn, and to determine his current whereabouts, hoping to reunite with him once again as the Alola League was finally completed and approved)

So, who would you connect with to meet up with me as friendly voices cut through the peaceful sunny crest~
Your heart is now mine forevermore, your sincerity shines at its best~

(The opening ceremonies kick off before Race and Sarah stand together in the midst of a fireworks celebration during a festival as their love continued to blossom and the gang takes up a bit of a sport called Pokemon Golf while helping a famous golfer and her Toucannon out of a slump they're in)

So, who would you connect with to meet up with me as friendly voices cut through the peaceful sunny crest~
Your heart is now mine forevermore, your sincerity shows me your love I can't detest~

(Guzzlord somehow enters Sarah's world along with other Guzzlords to join him after the Alola League reaches its climax, forcing everybody in the region to try and stop them from destroying Alola and repeating the tragic history of Dia's world. In the short instrumental, the gang takes part in battling at the Kantonian Gym in Malie City on Ula'Ula Island as short snippets of the gang getting themselves into scrapes throughout their misadventures are shown)

So, who would you connect with to meet up with me as friendly voices cut through the peaceful sunny crest~
Your heart is now mine forevermore, your sincerity shines at its best~

(Lana is then shown facing the toughest challenge of her life as she and Brionne come across a Kyogre and she has to do her utmost to tame it as she reels it in when its life is in danger. Sandy, Mallow's Shaymin, Sarah's Shaymin, the metal-like Pokemon, Breezeon, Sho, and Donka explore Malie City unsupervised after trying to recover a hair ornament before coming across Team Rocket again. Pikachu (and his entire team) and Blitz (with some of his brothers and sisters) go on an adventure to find Ash, Torracat, Sarah, and Silvally disappeared on them when the quartet traveled back in time and meet a younger Kukui as he starts out on his Pokemon journey that leads him to become a Pokemon Professor in studying Pokemon moves)

So, who would you connect with to meet up with me as friendly voices cut through the peaceful sunny crest~
Your heart is now mine forevermore, your sincerity shows me your love I can't detest~

(Finally, snippets of the Ultra Rescue Rangers' final missions involving Evox with their and the Beast Morphers Rangers' final clashes with him and his followers, the return of Necrozma and their efforts to restore him as the Bright One, the gang all taking part in the Alola League including Sarah or Ash facing off against Guzma and learning how he became the trainer and punk he is now and why he was running away, and a final battle with either one facing off against Kukui and Tapu-Koko in a final full 6-on-6 Pokemon battle and a match for the ages in Alola are shown. The intro then ends with Sarah reviving Necrozma in his true form and standing with him along with Cresselia, Zygarde (10% Forme), Zacian, Zamazenta, Xerneas, Giratina, and Rayquaza while she turned into her Lion Form and roared proudly as the titles appeared above the group on the ground)

Pokemon Sun & Moon - The Warrior Princess

As the guests filed in for the performance and were being catered to before the curtain would lift, our heroes backstage were making last-minute adjustments before the show could officially begin. Aside from getting themselves in their costumes, the gang and Sarah along with Tsukumaro and their Pokemon coupled with the dragons and creatures assisting in the play in addition to the Vikings from Berk and their dragons were practicing their lines one last time. They had to make sure they were in top form before the play could begin and were making some last-minute adjustments to their acting abilities to ensure they get their parts right.

"Well, I'm in top form," Kiawe commented after warming up his vocals, Sophocles also feeling satisfied as he rehearsed one of his lines for his part.

Lillie was trying to get her part right as she acted out every little detail while Mallow instructed Tsareena to hand her one of the stage props needed for it when she signals her to do so. Lana, Sandy, and Primarina were dressing themselves down with their part carefully but Ash was struggling a bit as he had forgotten something important.

"Aw, man. Where in the world did my script go?" he questioned.

"Don't know,” Pikachu replied.

"Did you leave your script at home?" Rotom-Dex said to the Kanto Trainer before he gave Ash his own script to borrow. "Don't worry, here you go. You can use mine."

"Ah! Thanks a lot, Rotom!"

"You're the best!" Ash and Pikachu thanked.

"Everyone, are you all prepared? Remember, your families are all coming so give it all you got!" Rotom-Dex reminded, knowing that amongst the audience coming, the gang's friends and family will be attending.

Ash was shocked when Rotom-Dex mentioned their families and Mallow was surprised when she realized what it would mean for her, "Ah! You mean my mom?!"

"But, Dad has the restaurant!"

The two of them peaked from behind the stage to see that indeed, along with much of Alola's population and tourists, their families had come along with those of the others. Harper's mother along with her sisters had arrived (as their father was out on another fishing trip), Sophocles' mother and father along with Nina and her husband are in attendance, Kiawe's parents and Mimo arrived from Akala Island to see their son/brother perform, Abe decided to take time off from his family's restaurant to watch his daughter in the play (while Ule manned the restaurant with some help), Alena arrived to see Torracat and their friends perform as well, and Lusamine was having a lovely conversation with Delia who returned to Alola with Mimey to watch Ash take center stage along with his friends with Hobbes having a video camera on him to record the performance as he and Lusamine were ecstatic to see Lillie perform in the play.

"It's nice to meet you," Delia greeted Lusamine. "I've heard that you're always helping my son, Ash."

"Oh, no, it's the other way around," Lusamine chuckled humbly before she eagerly inquired, "So, are you Ash's mother? Your Ash and our best friend, Sarah, are always helping me and Lillie out so very much."

Mallow and Ash now both went pale, "My mom really did come!"

"Now, I'm really nervous!"

In addition to the gang's families, Brandon and the rest of the Frontier Brains were amongst the audience and even Scott was with them as they eagerly waited to see Race take part in the play and Sarah's adoptive grandparents, Diane and Johnathan, were in conversation with Doug and Delilah along with David and Donna (former queen) as their Pokemon attended, too. The four royals were curious about the play and they were just as excited to see their daughter/granddaughter along with Tsukumaro take part in it.

"Man, now we got Brandon, Scott, and the Frontier Brains to worry about, too! And, that's even counting Diane and Johnathan!" Ash squeaked, now even more of a panic as he tried to keep himself calm.

"I wonder how Sarah and Race are going to take them coming to watch us all in," Mallow agreed, both of them sweating nervously.

Speaking of Sarah, Race, Tsukumaro, and their crew, they had just finished their last-minute rehearsals for their parts and they were getting their costumes on. Of course, when they heard that the Frontier Brains and Diane and Johnathan were coming to see them perform while amongst the audience, the young couple got butterflies in their stomachs as they were worried about how they would take the play as well. But, Tsukumaro was embarrassed already not by the fact that he'll also be performing with his old friends and former king and queen watching but from having to wear a costume he felt looked stupid on him.

"Oh, I never thought my adoptive grandparents would be coming for the play!" Sarah groaned.

"Easy for you to say, I got my entire family AND Scott taking time off of their duties to watch us, let alone me, perform!" Race replied, trying to keep himself cool despite his nervousness overtaking him.

"Princess, be honest, why must you all force me to wear that ridiculous costume that's a hideous mock-up of Newt Scamander?" Tsukumaro griped, gesturing to his Newt Scamander costume akin to that from the first Fantastic Beasts movie.

"Come on, Old Man! It's just for the play and you told us that one of your idols in the Wizarding World was His Royal Highness, Sir Scamander, himself, he-he-he-he!" sniggered Zorua as she rested atop Zeraora's head.

"I resent your slander of him, Zorua! Besides, I'm doing a great disservice to him by wearing this thing. It's just so gaudy!" Tsukumaro bit back, annoyed.

"Get used to it, you'll do fine," smirked Zorua.

"He's right, Tsukumaro. You look like a spitting image of him from that Fantastic Beasts movie Sarah showed us," Keldeo chimed in as he observed Tsukumaro in his costume. "Besides, didn't you mention at one point that you were once placed in Hufflepuff House in that magic school you went to before you ended up in Alola 500 years ago?"

"Gryffindor for my bravery, actually, Keldeo. But, still......." Tsukumaro replied before he gave up and groaned, deciding to roll along with it.

"I didn't ask to be in this stupid play, I didn't want any part of it, and yet, somehow, you always find a way to drag me into your stupid little favors for your own stupid whims, Pipsqueak," Eternatus grumbled, brooding as he stayed in a secluded corner of the backstage area, feeling humiliated about taking part in the play. "And, what makes it worse? You even have those two blue, pink, and red wolves jumping in on this scene for your little show, WITHIN MY EYESIGHT!"

"Oh, come on, Eternatus, that's shallow even for you. I know you're still salty about Zacian and Zamazenta joining us even though you made peace with them but think about it; performing alongside them, having fun with them, and so on. This is a huge first step for you guys, didn't you prove you could get along with them now after you battled alongside Zacian back at Hammerlocke Stadium?" Sarah chastised as she joined Eternatus in his corner.

"I don't want you to expect me to buddy up with them out of the blue like that! I'm just-well........Just, well, uh, sharp acquaintances with them, that's all!"

"We'll see," Sarah smirked before she realized that Zacian and Zamazenta were nowhere to be seen. "Hey, guys, where are Zacian and Zamazenta? They should be getting ready for the play, it's almost curtain time."

"Hey, Sarah! You lose something or somebody?" Hiccup called, he and Zenna waving and pointing to Zacian and Zamazenta, watching from another part of the backstage area but looking a little nervous as they watched everybody prepare.

"They've been like that since we started getting ready," Zenna added as Toothless and Stryka nodded in agreement.

"What are you guys doing over here?" the princess asked curiously as she went over.

"Observing, why?" Zacian replied simply.

"Why don't you come over and join us for the play? Try to loosen up and have fun since we need your help."

"We....... Uh, we don't know how," Zamazenta admitted.

Sarah was surprised as she stared blankly at them and then, she replied, "You guys don't know how to have fun even though you've been with me for over a week and since we got back from Galar?" The two Warrior Pokemon shook their heads at her, confirming their answers and her disbelief over the thought.

"Never had a chance to do so back then and we never had it now, honestly," Zacian admitted sheepishly. "Basically, since we were once charged with protecting all of Galar back then by Sully and Sam and after saving the world and Galar from Eternatus, actually having fun has never been in our dictionary. Basically, we don't even know the first thing about having fun."

"What's wrong with Zacian and Zamazenta, Sarah?" Lana asked as she, Primarina, and Sandy joined the trio when they caught wind of their conversation.

"You're not gonna believe this, these two heroes here don't even know how to have fun even though they've been with us for over a whole week," the princess replied, surprising Lana and her Pokemon.

"No fun-fun?!" Sandy balked.

"You two don't even know how to play, not once?" Primarina added, just as baffled.

Still feeling as sheepish as ever, Zacian and Zamazenta shook their heads again just as Izzy popped and engulfed the started Warrior Pokemon as she held them in side hugs (making them give up frightened yelps at her showing up). "Well, my little doggy hombres, there's no time like the present for you to start learning! This play's going to turn you up, down, sideways, and loop-de-loop so much that your glows will be all sparkly and your frowns will turn upside down!"

She zipped away to finish preparing herself, leaving Zacian and Zamazenta staring in bewilderment while Lana, Sarah, Sandy, and Primarina laughed at them.

"She still gives me the willies ever since Little Bird first introduced us to her and those ponies, even the one with the strange rainbow streaks in her mane," Zacian admitted again, gulping over Izzy's energy and her happy-go-lucky nature.

"Yeah, I still don't know how she does that, to be honest," agreed Zamazenta nervously.

Hiccup, Zenna, their fellow Vikings, their friends, and their dragon partners weren't the only ones who are helping out with the play, either, along with the SandWings; Sarah had even extended an invitation to Sunny, her friends, the Mighty Ones, and their Pokemon to give them some assistance and join them on stage, too. Their first meeting with Zacian and Zamazenta took place at the start of the week of rehearsals for the play, the two of them getting a real shock when they saw them for the very first time.

"Zacian, Zamazenta, I know everything since you've been accepted into Sarah's family is worrying and a bit scary since you knew little or nothing about all this but there's no harm in admitting you're afraid of doing this with literally no experience," Sunny reassured as she came over to the two brothers sympathetically.

"Easy for you to say, we've never taken part in anything like this in our lives!"

"How do you kids do this when you know you got thousands of people watching you all like Pidgeots?" they retorted.

"Just take deep breaths and try to roll with the punches as you go along, don't let your fears or the audience get the better of you," Tamu advised.

Ryu nodded in agreement as he smiled at the two and said, "The important thing when you're doing something like this is to have fun and be happy when you're in the moment. When you're out there for anything including a musical recital or a play such as this one, don't think about the audience, go out and have fun. And, you'll know that you'll find something in you that will allow you to take your newfound fun and acting talents to a whole new level. But, for now, just kick it."

"You think so?" Zamazenta quizzed doubtfully, Ryu only nodding as he continued to smile.

"We'll be right behind you guys," Zipp agreed, giving the two reassuring smiles and leaving them to finally nod and agree to take part.

"Hey, Sarah, thanks for allowing us to be part of this play," Hiccup thanked Sarah as he and Zenna turned to the princess.

"It's great to know that not only will we be acting out a story of your class and the Pokemon School's making but to have us learn about show performances in your world and SandWing culture, too, that's a first," Zenna added while Toothless and Stryka checked themselves over.

"It's nice of you to invite us over for this event, must be pretty cool to put on a show like this in your world," Astrid agreed once she was fitted into her costume and Stormfly finished grooming herself.

"However, just make sure you don't have any of us make utter fools of ourselves while we're acting out this whole 'play' type thing you've all put up," Stoick remarked.

"It'll be a crying shame to have our Viking pride take a hit when doing something as shameful and embarrassing as acting out of character to what we really are," Gobber added, feeling doubtful about the whole thing.

"Don't you worry, you two, you'll be alright," Sarah reassured simply to the older Vikings.

Discord chuckled as he and Pipp joined the group and he said, "And, with me putting my own personal touch on the backgrounds, this will be fun."

"You know it~!" Pipp agreed before the Dragonequus looked at the clock and donned a musical director's outfit and had a director's cone on him.

"Places, everybody! Places!"

Everybody wrapped up their final rehearsals, tweaks, and revisions to their parts and got on their costumes once everything was ready (as Zacian and Zamazenta gulped nervously and took a deep breath, bracing themselves and fighting the butterflies in their stomachs for the main event before joining their family and friends). Soon, the lights were dimmed in the school stadium as the play eventually began with all of Alola and the heroes' families prepared to enjoy themselves, Principal Oak taking center stage to open the show and greet the crowd.

"Ahem, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, and Pokemon of all ages! Welcome to our talent Blitzle, prepare yourselves for a real dra-Marill!" he introduced as the audience clapped happily, the play officially beginning as Discord set the stage for the first part which would take place on Berk via his illusions (with Hiccup doing the opening narration).

Scene 1

"'This is Berk, surrounded by all sides by bone-chilling, breath-stealing water and if my dad is to believe it, marauding enemies,'" he began, the first scene showing the Isle of Berk on a snowy day, the Viking Teens and their dragon friends helping to bring warmth to the villagers and help them cope with the cold.

"'Of course, my dad, who also happens to be the chief of our little frostbitten community, has a notoriously poor opinion of human nature. And, with that said, it was up to Zenna and I to keep reminding him that sometimes, myths and legends.....can become all too real.'"

With Hiccup and Zenna, the former Viking underdogs, Toothless, and Stryka were lighting up torches across town to not only add more light to shine the village at night but also provide additional warmth should the temperature drop. "'Once upon a time, the Vikings of Berk fought against dragons, Now, we live and work side-by-side with them. And, when it gets to the real depths of winter and daylight hours are a bunk-and-you-miss-it kind of deal, we both do our bit to brighten up even the darkest hour.'"

When they and the others had finished lighting up the town for another day of snow and ice, Astrid and Stormfly suddenly noticed something from off the horizon which looked like a floating longship, "Hiccup, Zenna! Do you see that?"

"See what, Astrid?" Hiccup quizzed, seeing her point to the longship.

"Stormfly, fire," Astrid requested to her partner, the female Deadly Nadder immediately breathing fire into the air that dropped near the boat, illuminating it for Zenna and Hiccup in the darkness of the shadows.

"Oh, that," Zenna remarked with a facepalm.

Mounting their dragons, the three friends rushed over to the ship and started to scout around, looking for crew members that are manning the ship despite it looking abandoned and without having anybody else to steer it across the sea.

"See anyone aboard this craft?" Astrid called while she and Stormfly looked around the starboard bow.

Hiccup and Zenna along with Toothless and Zenna checked the ship from the back end until they came across a middle-aged man (being played by Mischief) that was tied to the ship's mass, the wooden watercraft now appearing to be heading for some rocks in a rough and jagged arrangement.

"Yeah, and it looks like those rocks we're about to crash into will split the ship in half! I'm going in!" Zenna replied, jumping off of Stryka and landing on the ship before reaching the man and untying him, allowing Stormfly to swoop in and rescue him in time, getting him in her claws.

"Good job, Stormfly," Astrid praised.

"Let's get him back to the village and warm him up," Hiccup suggested, the girls nodding in agreement as they and their dragons backtracked to Berk to tend to the man.

Back at Berk, in the Great Hall (where the Mighty Ones, Hitch, Zipp, Izzy, Pipp, Sarah, Ash, Mallow, Lillie, Kiawe, Sophocles, and Lana were gathered and in Viking costumes themselves), the man that was rescued was bundled up in a fur blanket he was given along with a meal and a drink but to the group's confusion, when they tried to inquire him on what had happened while he was at sea, he ended up muttering, "S-S-S-S-She......is......c-c-c-coming, wherever she g-g-goes, E-E-E-Endless N-Night, follows........"

"Hmm, any clue as to the poor fellow's identity, Gobber?" Stoick quizzed his Viking blacksmith friend.

"Only this," Gobber confirmed, showing everybody what looked to be an old talisman that had a lightning bolt crest on it.

Hiccup was surprised when he was able to recognize the crest, "A lightning bolt crest?"

"But, that's the sigil of-!" gasped Zenna, also recognizing the crest.

Gobber nodded grimly to the two Viking best friends as he confirmed, "The Thunderhead Bay Viking Tribe."

"Small atoll north and west of here, whalers, the whole lot of them. Population around.....Sixty-ish," Fishlegs noted to the two.

"And, none of 'em are exactly in a hurry to slip any ale on them at our table. Not since the time when they had to sue for peace at the end of the Valhalla Wars," Stoick added grimly as Gobber nodded, his grim expression still on his face.

"Aye, a lot of hue and cry over nothing much from what we can tell from them."

"Maybe so, but people have long memories and so........" Stoick frowned, glaring suspiciously at the man as he continued to mutter and stammer in fright.

"G-G-Gone, all gone, all of them......... One by one, every last one, she's....... S-She's coming, the one, t-t-the only.....SKULD!" the man now yelped in sheer terror.

Fishlegs suddenly gasped, fear gripping him as he recognized the name and could only let out a quiet, "Oh, no......"

"Fishlegs?" Astrid asked worriedly.

"What's gotten your brain scrambled about that name?" Snotlout put in with a raised eyebrow.

"Fishlegs, you know who this Skuld is?" Edgar inquired gently.

"Skuld, the Sorceress....... The meanest, nastiest, and most ruthless witch ever known to terrorize us Vikings in Viking history; according to the old Viking legends, she led a coven of warrior witches and cursed whole villages to no end. Her powers for doing this are not unknown but everybody who's survived her attacks mentioned that they're powerful beyond anything we Vikings can ever endure........"

"No......" breathed Ash, shocked.

"She's that powerful?" Mallow gawked in alarm.

"Terrorized whole villages?"

"Warrior witches?"

"This can't be happening!" Lillie, Lana, and Sophocles gasped as the dragons warbled at each other with growing concern, only for Stoick to scoff and be skeptical of Fishlegs' words.

"Hmph! Stuff and nonsense, that's what it is! Why, my mum used to rock me to sleep when I was a lad with all those tall tales of cursed witches and witches' spells. Even if there were any witches roaming these parts, they wouldn't dare intrude on our beloved Berk."

"Ladies and gentlemen; Progressive Parenting, Viking Style," Hiccup remarked sarcastically.

The man just shivered in fright and then, he muttered, "I-I-I thank you for s-s-saving, me, b-b-but by d-doing that, y-you've, you, you've doomed y-y-y-y-yourselves! Eternal Night........w-w-w-will, will soon fall!"

Kiawe and Zenna helped the frightened man up after he fell as everyone looked at each other, their worry over everything Fishlegs told them and what the man said getting to them as they could only wonder what Skuld would be up to. But, Stoick, still as defiant, stubborn, and reckless as ever, continued to scoff as his denial and Viking pride took him over again.

"Ugh, for Thor's sake! Look, everyone, the sun is rising for another morning, like it always does! No harm in letting a little ray of sunshine ruin this Skuld's day," he sniffed defiantly, still flouting his Viking pride as everybody else started to notice something horribly wrong. "Every year, it's been the same.......long nights, minuscule days in the bloody cold winter. Nobody, not even one Viking or this witch creature we either know or don't know of, has the power to achieve such a preposterous thing!"

"Uh, Chief, I think we're........." a Viking peeped with growing fear, tapping his shoulder before everyone heard........

"STOICK THE VAST! YOU AND THE SONS OF ODIN HAVE LONG SINCE ESCAPED JUSTICE FOR THE CRIMES YOU'VE COMMITTED AGAINST ME AND MY SISTERS! BUT, AT LAST, I FINALLY FOUND YOU!" a booming, angry female voice echoed, startling everyone as they looked around for the owner. "FOR EVERY LAST ONE OF MY SISTERS WHOM YOU'VE RUTHLESSLY HOUNDED AND PERSECUTED BY YOU WRETCHED MEN, ONE OF YOURS SHALL THUS BE TAKEN! SO SWEARS SKULD THE SORCERESS!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Everyone rushed outside of the Great Hall to look for the owner of the voice as the person cackled, striking fear into many of the Vikings and their dragons gathered while some were left shocked and incensed as they braced themselves to fight, Stoick being amongst the latter as he shoved forward to the front of the group.

"COWARD! Come out and fight, Sorceress! Are you too afraid to face me like a man, a Viking?! COME OUT!" Stoick snapped, wheeling around for the owner of the voice as she cackled again.

"Hey, look!" Shadow cried in alarm, finally seeing and directing everyone towards a woman in her mid-40s (played by Zorua) atop a cliff, now frowning dangerously at them.

Everyone was in disbelief and shock as they saw her atop a large cliff while she looked down at them; the woman was wearing what looked like a horrid, fanged animal skull on her head like it was a makeshift helmet and she was wearing a fur cape coupled with a purple and pink outfit underneath it, complete with a small skirt, gray wrapping over her upper arms and a tiger skin belt fixed around her waist that had skulls hanging from it.

Ash, Mallow, and Sophocles screamed as they jumped into Kiawe, Lana, and Lillies' arms, the latter two pairs falling in their fright while Kiawe deadpanned with a frown at the crowd, the audience laughing at the sight before them.

"AAAAHHH! I-I-It, it, it, i-it's you! The Sorceress, Skuld! S-S-SHE'S HERE! SHE'S COME TO GET YOU!" the man panicked with a frightened stutter as Astrid and Hiccup quickly tried to restrain him so he wouldn't let his panic take him over and force him to run away.

"Is that Skuld?"

"It must be her!"

"Ugh, she's got skulls on her!"

"Very bad Viking fashion trend on her, I'd say!"

"Definitely made a name for herself if she was able to strike terror into the poor man," Stormfly, Winter, Barf, Belch, and Meatlug remarked.

"It is Skuld!" Fishlegs cried.

"So, you've heard of me, son of the new generation of the Sons of Oden. I see, that makes it all the easier for me," Skuld sniffed before she gave a seething glare at Stoick. "Stoick the Vast! I've come to avenge my sisters, today's your retribution day and I'm going to make sure you suffer the most out of your entire clan!"

"And yet, I see none of this accursed darkness you bring with you, woman! No unending night, as my son might say. BRING IT ON!" Stoick challenged as he drew his axe and pointed it at her, a devilish smirk appearing on Skuld's face as he had tempted her to do her worst.

"Then, allow it to be your tomb, your grave, from this day forward where you stand," she smirked in acceptance of his challenge, creating a sphere of white energy before she then recited (her frown returning as her lust for retribution returned in full force), "Born through the skies by the chilled hand of Mophelis to draw the veil of eternal eventide and being! Now, go with the curse and serve me well! Blanketing the entirety of berk, cast my Endless Night!"

Once she finished her spell, she threw the orb into the sky as it moved in front of the sun and slowly began to block it via a makeshift solar eclipse. The entire group watched as the orb blocked the sun and a dark cloud cover with no rain in sight appeared to add even more blockage against the sun and its rays, causing everyone to look wearily up and try to brace themselves for what was coming.

Skuld eyed the Vikings and their animal companions before her as she smirked at their growing panic and fear despite whatever valiance they've put up but then, she noticed the talisman belonging to the Thunderhead Bay Tribe in Gobber's hands and pointed her staff at it, levitating it out of his grasp and over to hers.

"Hey! The talisman!"

"What are you doing?!"

"That's not yours, barf-brain!"

"Give it back!"

"We gained custody rights over that!" Hiccup, Zenna, Snotlout, Tuffnut, and Ruffnut bellowed.

"This, this little thing? My dear Viking kids, do you even know how useless it is to you? This talisman of the Thunderhead Tribes is more than just their sigil, it holds a large source of my power and with it, I will finally have my revenge!" sneered Skuld as she pointed at the terrified Thunderhead Viking.

"This little plight stole it from me and escaped their doom and I went after him but I've lost sight of him until you've brought him to Berk and led him to me. I should thank you, really, once I regained my power, I will be unstoppable! And, once that happens, I'll blanket your world in Eternal Night, FOREVER!"

"NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!" the Viking Teens screamed, their dragons also roaring frantically.

But, it was too late; with her source of power returning to her as she placed the talisman on her chest, Skuld began to glow with a black and red sparkling aura that crackled with strings of electricity and she started floating in the air. A black-red sphere of that same energy and dark magic engulfed her as she transformed into an absolute horror show that everybody could only look at with fear, their fears becoming justified as what emerged out of the orb as it exploded was no longer a human but a large pony.

The pony that Skuld became was akin to the dark alter-ego of Luna fueled by all of the negative emotions she once bottled up and unleashed in the final years of her and Celestia's previous rule-Nightmare Moon-except, she was standing at seven feet tall and she had black armor donned across her body. At the same time, her mane and tail were a solid shade of blood red as they also sparkled.

The entire group continued to watch as they were horrified over Skuld having gone mad with power as she cackled again, landing on the ground with her Blood Moon now completely blocking out the sun. Nobody had any idea at what to do now or how to counter her power at the moment, all of them were completely shocked by the full extent of her power now that she had reclaimed what was rightfully hers.

"What is that?"

"What happened to Skuld?!"

"She's now a monster!"

"All that energy, she's used it to unleash what is her true form!"

"That human form was just a cover that allowed her to walk amongst us and our people so we'd be taken off guard as she managed to do so!"

"She's a beast, that witch," Ash, Mallow, Stormfly, Hurricane, Nyasi, and Voltage remarked.

"Chief, what have you done?!" Sophocles cried at Stoick.

"You shouldn't have tempted Skuld to pull the rug from under us like that, Stoick! Didn't your mom ever teach you manners?!" Sarah berated.

Stoick flinched in fear from Sarah's wrath and the situation everyone was now in as Skuld continued to cackle victoriously, "Yes, the power, he-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! THE ABSOLUTE POWER!!!!!!!!!!"

"Now, you've done it, Stoick, me lad!" Gobber shouted, trying and failing to stay calm.

"What'll we do now?!" Lillie begged as everyone wondered what their next move should be.

"The night shall finally last forever with the return of my power and once this world is blanketed in my glorious darkness, the universe will be mine to command, TO CONTROL!!!!!!!!!" Skuld declared, still cackling madly.

"WE'RE DOOOOOOOMED!!!!!!!!!"

"DOUBLE DOOMED!"

"TRIPLE DOOMED!"

"DOOMED, WE TELL YOU!"

"WE'RE DOOMED, DOOMED, DOOOOOOOOMED!!!!!!!!" Pastry and her sisters shrieked and sobbed fearfully as they huddled close to Chien-Pao while he shielded them, throwing his own glare at the mad pony.

It was at that moment Skuld decided to demonstrate her power at the horror-stricken group as she sent a blast at them, forcing everybody at the sound of Sarah's "RUN!" to scramble out of the way and avoid being attacked while they tried to attack her in return to get her off their backs. But, no matter how hard they tried and no matter how many attacks they throw at her, Skuld blocked, parried, and deflected them all back and gave each of her attackers a beating before they were all forced to regroup and were left at her mercy once again.

They all braced themselves for another blast being thrown at them when suddenly, a sphere of white magic appeared and destroyed the blast aimed at the heroes, dissipating it before it was revealed to be a lantern that had gold rims on the edges and its top half and bottom half were purple. And, in the center of the lantern, the light shining from it was a beautiful rainbow that showed everyone it was no ordinary lantern.

Skuld gasped before she frowned with contempt at the lamp, "Wha-NO! Impossible, the Rainbow Lantern!"

"Rainbow what?" Tamu puzzled.

"What's the Rainbow Lantern?" Appa questioned.

"I think it's that thing there, bro!" Spike pointed towards the lantern.

"It just saved us!" Buneary added.

"Forget about the lantern and let's get out of here!" Fishlegs interrupted, now in a panic.

"SCRAMBLE!" Sarah shouted in alarm as everybody ran, screaming their heads off.

They all bolted in different directions to get away from Skuld to the song, "If I Chase You, You Chase Me", from Milo Murphy's Law or "The Aliens Are Here" from Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders by The Hippos, going all around the village to get away from the mad human-turned-pony. Skuld, giving an amused huff, held her staff and created what are her Warrior Witches which are Frost Ponies (ponies that are attuned to the powers of darkness and ice that have crystal white coats, crystal-clear cyan-gray manes coupled with pitch black tails, glimmering light aqua eyes with blank pupils which suggest they are blind, and their overall body figures being as clear as ice) to chase after them.

Ryu, Tamu, Drake, and Sefu all held Zipp, Pipp, Izzy, and Hitch in their arms, the Mighty Ones running upright on their hind legs (similar to how Scooby-Doo protects his nephew, Scrappy-Doo, in the Scooby & Scrappy Doo Show) while a platoon of Frost Ponies went after them while firing ice blast after ice blast to freeze them.

Stoick, Gobber, Henna, Edgar, and the Viking Teens, on the other hand, ran in their own separate groups along with their dragons in different directions across the village before they ended up crashing into each other at one point and running in separate directions after that in a similar sequence to Alien Invaders, all while they were being chased by the Frost Ponies tailing them.

Skuld just looked on from her current spot in great amusement as she reveled in the villages and the Vikings along with their allies running for their lives from her Warrior Witches with no hope of escaping.

Even the villagers that ended up being caught in the crossfire were running around in panicked comedic circles from the Frost Ponies around the village plaza as the chase continued. Sure enough, the heroes ran into each other again, Pokemon and all before they scattered yet again as the Frost Ponies fired blast after blast, trying to halt them while enjoying their panic.

Sarah was just about to pass Snotlout when she noticed a frightened Pastry clinging onto his face in fear and gently pulled the Fidough off before they noticed a Frost Pony coming at them and they ran away.

Before long, with Pastry still in her arms, she was now with Stoick and his group as they kept running to the beat while her Pokemon, Toothless, Stormfly, Barf and Belch, Hookfang, Meatlug, Shadow, and the rest of the dragons ran in another direction as they jumped over a fence in front of them although Toothless tripped over it and he faceplanted before Stryka and Cansu ran back and dragged him away.

Minutes later, with Sarah and Pastry having parted with the Berk group to try and find the latter's sisters and Chien-Pao and the dragons still going their own way, Hiccup, Zenna, and their entire party made their way to the outskirts of the village.

But, the Frost Ponies have already headed them off with a trap set up for them and without warning, Hiccup and Stoick accidentally set it off as they tripped over a hidden trip wire which was attached to a set-up that had a pan and a big wooden spoon in place. The trip wire caused the wooden spoon fixed to a post to be let loose after the trip wire was snagged and it eventually clanged onto the pan that was nearby a wild horse which caused it to be spooked by the bang.

True to Murphey's Law, the horse ran and it tripped over a nearby bucket of water that short-circuited the controls of a nearby windmill that the Frost Ponies had put up and the windmill blades soon started to spin out of control.

"Uh-oh," the Vikings peeped as they all watched.

The blades eventually came off like gigantic ninja stars and the Vikings were left with no choice but to flee again, frantically bolting up and down the forest area as the sails chopped down the trees they passed under in its wake. Eventually, the Vikings were all forced to jump down and duck as the blades passed overhead and they soon landed in the ocean with a loud splash, leaving some annoyed Frost Ponies to chase after them again after their trap ended up failing on them.

Luck was still not on their side despite the lucky save as the heroes ended up back where they started and crashed into each other with Skuld watching as her Frost Ponies finally caught them and started to surround the entire group as she hovered above them, leaving them boxed in with no way out as there were over one hundred of them at every corner around them.

"We're trapped!" Fennekin squeaked in horror.

"Now, what are we going to do?!" Snom fretted.

"We gotta do something to get out of this crazy thing!" Pikachu replied.

"Ah, I was hoping you would have a plan, Pikachu!" Vikavolt retorted fearfully.

"Me, too!" agreed Togedemaru, she and Vikavolt sweating as they and everyone else was getting crowded by the Frost Ponies.

"Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!!!!!!!!!! Think you stand a chance by hounding together like a bunch of scared puppies? Only a fool would be stupid enough to even think about challenging me, ME, the Mistress of All Evil!" roared Skuld in delight as she continued to cackle and unleashed her power at the heroes and Vikings.

"Then, how about I knock the magical stuffing out of YOU?" screamed Sarah, finally steeling herself and jumping in the air as she transformed via her Unity Pin and donned her Alicorn form again, shocking Skuld as she eyed the little princess casting a light shield that deflected her magic.

"What?! You dare humiliate me by becoming a beast with a horn and wings and using your own power against me?" Skuld barked in angered frustration.

"Someone once told me that at the height of a particular martial art, anything can be used as a weapon. Plus, I'd prefer the term 'Alicorn'," Sarah retorted, unsheathing her father's sword and holding it in her magical grasp before Skuld.

They then flew at each other for a duel before they clashed (Skuld readying her staff as well) and went into a short deadlock (akin to the deadlock clash between Luna and Sombra in the SFS Animation MLP fan short, "Fall of the Crystal Empire"), blue and yellow sparks showing as their deadlock continued before they broke apart and fought.

Since she was up against an entire army in addition to Skuld, Sarah was forced to do battle with the Frost Ponies as well as they shot their ice projectiles at her, casting a shield of fire that turned the projectiles into the water they were made from and blasted them with her fire magic that melted them in turn.

Skuld noticed this before she smirked and slyly complimented, ".......You're pretty good with your witchcraft."

Sarah just glared as she continued to fight the mad witch-turned-pony before Skuld went to firing her dark magic at her after three minutes of parries, slashes, stabs, thrusts, and blocks, the little princess countering her blast with her Light of Hope as she focused it into a beam of energy before they ended up in a power struggle.

"Come on, Mother! Put that witch in the dog pound!"

"Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it!"

"Sock it to 'em, Auntie!" Silvally, Skitty, and Yamper cheered.

The two beams eventually exploded as they neutralized each other but Skuld was already one step ahead of Sarah; using the smoke as cover for her next attack, she fired her magic to create a half-spherical platform underneath her as she concentrated the power she still has on her and sent it towards the princess without warning. Sarah was unprepared for that sneak attack and she was struck hard by it, tumbling into the ground as her family's Sun Sword landed next to her.

"You seem to have some spine in you unlike these headless chickens who can't think before they cluck," scoffed Skuld as she eyed Sarah who was being propped up by Silvally, Blitz, and Chien-Pao while Pastry and her sisters came to her defense as well.

"Headless chickens?!" Stoick and Gobber echoed incredulously.

"Okay, I don't know if we should be offended or grossed out," Hiccup remarked, insulted.

"I'd definitely feel that," groaned Astrid in offense at Skuld's insult.

"Hey, we're not chickens!"

"And, we're not headless, either!" Tuffnut and Ruffnut barked angrily, the Vikings all groaning when they heard Toothless and Stryka finding the insult amusing as they mimicked chicken noises, only to earn stink eyes from the group that forced them to stop and make the audience burst out laughing.

"Very touching but I'll make sure you fools don't end my beautiful night and I'll make you extinct just as I had with those Thunderbay lunkheads!" Skuld declared, raising her staff and preparing to strike the heroes down and making the audience let out a collective gasp.

But, just as she swung her staff down to unleash the final blow on the heroes, without warning, a katana blade suddenly came out of nowhere as if it was thrown and slashed her on her left side. This stopped her attack midway as she let out a pained scream and the katana landed in the hands or hooves of its owner, causing everybody to turn to the newcomer that saved the group and came out of the shadows to reveal itself.

The savior was none other than a snow-white Alicorn mare who had more of a punk goth-like appearance given her short black and green mane and tail coupled with a purple choker around her neck that had a skull and crossbones attached to it. The mare's eyes were ocean blue but she wore red eyeshadow as opposed to the trademark black eyeshadow most goths wear and on her front hooves were a pair of black makeshift gloves.

"Who-?"

"Wha-?"

"How-" the older Night Lights puzzled.

"Pony/Pony with wings/Pony save us/ Pony help!" Pastry and her sisters cried.

"Who is it?"

"Arf! She looks like that goth from that ghost kid show we watched on TV," Ponyta and Yamper peeped.

"But, why does she look like that Rabbid Edge from that Mario game Aunt Sarah bought for us?" Scorch puzzled, scratching his head.

"Took your sweet time getting here, didn't you, Edge Blade?" Sarah smiled in relief at the Alicorn.

"Who?!" quizzed some baffled Vikings.

The Alicorn, now known to everyone as Edge Blade (or Edge, for short), gave a small smile towards the heroes before she stepped forward and faced down Skuld and her remaining Frost Ponies with her samurai sword at hand with confidence. She made a tsking sound while waving her sword in her right hoof three times while shaking her head, managing to irk the Frost Ponies as they fired their ice blasts at her.

But, the Alicorn was undeterred by the assault coming straight at her and she just charged straight at them before she swung her sword, striking at one of the Frost Ponies and slicing it to pieces before she dealt with the rest of them as if they're like paper or sushi. Everybody watched as Edge Blade demonstrated the peak of her swordplay, her samurai-like swordsmanship being second to none as she cut the Frost Ponies down to size, so much so that even the Vikings could only watch in shock and disbelief at her fighting prowess.

The final Frost Pony was soon defeated as they were all dispersed in a cloud of blue sparkles, snow, and black smoke, Edge flicking some sparkles and snow that clung to her blade as she then faced down an infuriated Skuld.

"Your swordplay is remarkable, I'll admit that, but that won't be enough to stop me! Now, I'm going to make you pay for destroying my pretties!" she bellowed, firing her demonic fire breath at her before Edge just absorbed the flames with a scoff and she immediately fired back, blasting Skuld with her own flames as she reeled back in pain.

"Whoa! Did you guys see that?!"

"I see it but I don't believe it!"

"She just absorbed all those flames like they were nothing and threw them back at her like a supercharged Inferno Overdrive but at twice the power!"

"She must know Elemental Manipulation just like Sarah!" Ash, Sophocles, Kiawe, and Lillie gasped in amazement.

"By thunder," Stoick breathed in awe.

"Amazing......." Edgar agreed.

Skuld snarled from being bested by Edge Blade before the mute goth Alicorn nodded to Sarah, silently asking her to join forces with her with the princess immediately joining her before they attacked as a pair team. Now going up against two Alicorns by her lonesome with only her staff on hand, Skuld faced off against her powerful foes as they continued with their assault, all three of them managing to get some lucky hits at each other in the midst of their battle even though the Nightmare Alicorn was still a force to be reckoned with.

It wasn't until Skuld was able to knock them back with her staff from a horizontal defense position that she prepared to stab them again but Sarah created a crystal pillar that lifted her and Edge Blade to dodge her in time. They immediately jumped down after she knocked into the pillar and they attempted to slash her but she parried their blows again and they jumped back, a few feet apart from each other.

"Why, you know that this imperialistic sentimentality is what caused men like Stoick the Vast to run rampant on women. He holds qualms for one petty reason or another and he's never one to think twice when Viking pride is all in his pea-brain. Why bother to defend his interests when you can clear men like that bastard off for the sake of girl power in women?" Skuld questioned, confused.

"You really are an idiot, you know that?" Sarah replied, undeterred. "You think we care about that?"

"Speak as you will but my eternal night begs to differ and soon, the days of Viking men will be over and women like me will reign supreme!"

"I beg to differ if you don't mind!" a voice shouted in response, the blood moon glowing white as a Patronus Pony appeared before everybody with her wings spread and a smile on her face that faded as she eyed Skuld with a hardened glare.

"Luna!" Zenna breathed.

Edge Blade gave an amused grunt as if to say, "Well, now, it seems you're a bit late to the party, Luna.", while giving off a raised eyebrow.

Luna had to smile back once she saw Blade, "My apologies, Edge Blade."

"What are you doing here?" Astrid questioned, looking at Luna.

"Apart from my unintentional exile from Equestria after my lapse of anger and hate, I've ruled over the night for over millennia, and yet, I feel that I've done the ponies of the new era a grave disservice with my premature death by Scarlet and Opaline's hooves and left them alone without one to watch them over at their most vulnerable. Thus, I've taken it upon myself to resume my duties but from the shadows knowing that my time is over, even if another world. My magic comes from the moon just as the same can be said for Skuld so, in that sense, I'll be able to combat her."

"Hmph, did you forget? My Blood Moon is still at play, my power is unlike yours and it comes second to none," Skuld retorted arrogantly yet skeptically.

"You think you can step all over our friends like a bunch of doormats?"

"Sure, you can take on our main girl with us here."

"NOT!" more voices rang out, revealing themselves to be the Teen Titans as Robin, Starfire, Cyborg, Raven, and Beast Boy made their entrance.

"Who are-?" Stoick began, surprised.

"What are they?" Gobber blinked, sharing Stoick's surprise.

"Those are more of our friends," Ash smiled, he and the others looking relieved and glad to see the Teen Titans once more as the audience applauded.

"They're the Teen Titans from that Jump City place and this California in the United States!" Fishlegs cried in amazement and awe.

"The one and only," Beast Boy winked at the Vikings and their dragons.

"How sentimental but however your defenses and no matter how many come to your rescue, your power is no match for mine!" Skuld scoffed, proceeding to demonstrate her might again as she charged up her dark magic as her horn glowed and black sparkling swirls coated it before she took to the skies and fired at the allies coming to the heroes' aid.

"Titans, Luna, go!" Robin alerted, the Teen Titans and Luna dispersing immediately before her beam can hit them.

Luna made the first move as Skuld fired another beam and she countered with her Lunar Magic, allowing Sarah to retrieve her family's sword and fly above her before she summoned a large flurry of crystal shards infused with her Sun Magic and fired it at the Nightmare Alicorn. But, Skuld was able to deflect them as they came at her with her staff (spinning it in a helicopter fashion) even while a few of them were able to nick her and leave her with small but painful scars on the exposed parts of her body unprotected by her armor.

Then, Raven flew towards her with her hands and eyes glowing from her demon power before Skuld conjured a sword from her Dark Magic to combat her as the most hopeful of the Titans prepared to fight, "You like Dark Magic, don't you?"

"On the contrary, it likes you," Skuld snarked as she and Raven clashed, the former striking on the offensive while the latter dodged, blocked, and parried before she launched a pulse at her.

However, the Nightmare Alicorn smirked as she dodged the blast and cut down a second one aimed at her before she teleported behind Raven and gave her a powerful slash, making her let out a painful "UGH!" as she started to fall before Luna came to her rescue as she caught her on her back. The two of them exchanged smiles and knowing nods before they and everyone else watched the other Titans fight her and were knocked back despite their best efforts.

"Your reputations don't lie. You match me in strength, I'll give you kids that, but it's your only hail mary, for now."

"If strength is all we've ever needed, the likes of Grogar and Opaline from Equestria, the demon who dared to call himself a father to one of the Teen Titans named Trigon, or even the monstrous Evox or the Sporix Beasts the Power Rangers have to deal with would've been integral to society in a different universe and the best of friends to us. Even you......."

".......You're right there," sniffed Skuld in amusement before she went on the attack again, this time sending rings of Dark Magic at the heroes.

Luna, Edge Blade, and the Teen Titans dodged the rings being thrown their way while Sarah encased herself in a large white diamond shield that was pushed back by Skuld's magic, and yet, it didn't crack. The little princess gave an unimpressed frown as she broke off the shield and unleashed a powerful wave of magic that sent Skuld to the ground, Toothless, Stryka, and the other dragons having managed to shield the humans and the ponies from the blast as the audience cheered for the Nightmare Alicorn's latest humiliation.

With their first fight with Skuld done and dusted (the Nightmare Alicorn dazed from the blow given to her), Sarah landed back on the ground and returned to her human form, sheathing her family's treasure sword as she did so and the Rainbow Lantern flew over to her and the heroes.

"Let's get out of here," she told everybody gathered just as the lantern blinked at her, prompting her to turn to it and smile, "You, too."

With that, she apparated everyone out of Berk and away from Skuld to a safe location, the Nightmare Alicorn finally coming to before she realized that in the midst of being hit by Sarah's magic wave, she lost her prey and she gave a small huff before she went off. "This isn't over......."

Act 1 END

"Having escaped from Skuld's clutches, Sarah managed to teleport everyone to Dragonstone Kingdom where they would seek temporary refuge until Berk can be reclaimed," Discord narrates, transitioning the play over to the second act.

Act 2

As Act 2 began, the scene changed to Dragonstone Kingdom, the heroes (including the Rainbow Lantern) having managed to escape from Skuld's wrath although they were still winded by her assault and her lust for revenge against all who had wronged her.

"Is everybody okay?" Ash asked as they regrouped and took in their current situation.

"Okay, okay, do we look like we're okay?!" Edgar ranted, grumbling at his own wit in frustration.

"We've just been attacked by the bastard sorceress that is Skuld, we've given her the last bit of her power that was stolen from her by one of the Thunderhead Bay Tribe with us that turned her into a winged unicorn from a human thus enabling her to carry out her vendetta against our chief, she attacked us with little to no effort thanks to her restored power, she managed to give us the boot off our island, not to mention we're running with our tails between our legs after being saved by some friends of yours, and now, we're stuck on your new dragon kingdom with no hope of breaking free from this nightmare of Eternal Night until Berk has become a frozen tundra of cold pain and icy misery! HAVE I LEFT ANYTHING OUT?!"

In sign language, Edge Blade told Edgar while Sarah translated for her, "Well, Stoick did piss Skuld off when he dared her to attack and took a jab on a woman's pride that made her do everything she did to us."

Edgar groaned, realizing that he had unintentionally gotten someone to rub salt in his tribe's mental wounds as he remarked in sarcastic exasperation, "Thank you! Thank you very much."

Edge had to give a wry smirk that showed her fangs as she then said through sign language (but with Sunny translating this time), "Edge says being the tenderfeet you are, you guys should suck the air back in your lungs."

Edgar took offense to the mute punk-goth alicorn's blunt comment as he retorted, "Who are you to talk, Fire Breath?"

"Where'd you come from, anyway? This so-called Gotham City place?" Snotlout added.

"Does that even exist?" Fishlegs asked rhetorically.

Edge replied back in sign language, still keeping her wry smirk on her face as Zipp translated for her with a chuckle, "And, where'd you dorks come from, anyway, Happy, Hammy Hampsters R' Us?"

The audience broke out into another fit of laughter while Edgar just groaned in defeat as Hiccup blinked before he turned to Sarah and asked her, "Sarah, seriously, jokes aside, where in the name of Thor did you even come across that......goth girl? No, no, don't tell me....... You guys met her while you were in Equestria?"

"That's about it and she's not the only one," Sarah nodded just as three baby voices babbled "Mama!" and three fillies (two Alicorns and one Pegasus) fluttered in and darted straight towards the little princess.

The first Alicorn filly bore a cream coat coupled with a purple mane and tail that had a faint streak in the middle along with a pair of faintly-colored rainbow wings; the second Alicorn filly, by contrast, was more of a pinkish color that had a dark pink mane and tail which had purple streaks in them and her wings being of her body fur color but with yellow shading at the ends; and, finally, the Pegasus filly was a lilac purple with a dark purple mane and tail with light blue, light purple, and white streaks in them.

The crowd went "aww" when they saw the fillies approaching the little princess as she took them into her arms as the trio cooed, "Mama......."

"You have got to be kidding........" Astrid deadpanned in annoyance, the other Viking Teens sharing her sentiments as they gave Sarah raised eyebrows and questioning looks.

"........Yeah, say hello to these three babies," Sarah replied with a sheepish grin following an awkward pause.

Sunny then galloped into view with Race, Tsukumaro (portraying Newt Scamander), Thunder, Wu and Wei, and Feathers following her, their presence earning them cheers and praise from the crowd as they finally made their debut in the second act of the show.

"Perfect timing, you guys!" Sarah called, suddenly looking surprised as she saw how exhausted the trio was. "What happened to you?"

"Don't ask," Race grumbled, trying to catch his breath as he got on his knees.

"Sunny!" cheered Izzy, darting to her best friend and hugging her.

"Heh, sorry, Izzy. We just got caught up with playing a game with them while babysitting until they escaped again," Sunny replied tiredly before she frowned and looked toward Sarah. "Sorry, Sarah, those three are still rambunctious and they just won't sit still no matter what we try."

"I agree....... T-These, little, devils........ They're much faster, more energetic, more.......troublesome than they appear to be, especially for their a-age," Newt panted, just as the three fillies spotted Eternatus and then fluttered up to the Gigantic Pokemon.

"Oh, no, no, no! No, n-n-n-n-n-n-n-no! Bad horses, bad horses, knock it o-OI! Back off, will ya!?" Eternatus barked angrily, trying to get away from the fillies as they cuddled and chased after him which got the audience laughing. "Come on, no fan cl-AH! Quit it, stop! Back off, you little-! 'EY! I'm no scratching post for you cats with hooves! Stop it, augh! I said, 'no cuddles'!"

Once they were done with Eternatus, the three fillies took notice of Edge Blade and fluttered happily to her while cooing at her, the goth Alicorn smiling warmly at them before giving them a hug as well, the fillies nuzzling her as they landed happily on her head. They even went Race and did the same with him as they cooed, "Dada......."

"Well, how about that? Getting old and finally having kids, man?" Cyborg smirked, poking fun at the former Battle Frontier Champion.

"So, when do the wedding bells ring, dude?" Beast Boy added, smirking.

"Don't you start, Beast Boy, Robocop," Race snarked with an annoyed eyebrow raised and blushing at the bionic Teen Titan and his best friend, his comment also getting the audience to laugh at him just as they did with Eternatus.

Zap, Splattertail, Goggles, Dart, Pouncer, and Ruffrunner chirped happily at the alicorn fillies. They soon fluttered over to greet them, the trio curiously reaching out to the six Night Lights and cooing excitedly at the dragons as they started to play with them.

"Sarah, those babies.....?" Zenna quizzed, raising a skeptical eyebrow at the little princess.

"I'll explain later. We got a nightmare horse to take down first," Sarah replied.

"But, her Frost Ponies have overwhelmed us back at Berk. And, not even the dragons can do much against their power," Raven reminded.

"So, how else will we stop this torturous winged unicorn of destruction if we can't take down her ponies of ice and darkness?" Starfire inquired.

"But, what are those Frost Ponies, anyway?" Ash asked.

"Frost Ponies, nasty little buggers of snow and evil. Born from a Forbidden Spell and not knowing for themselves what's right or wrong," Newt frowned as he explained to the group, crossing his arms. "They're merely her footsoldiers, only meant to follow orders from whoever's dominant, the alpha, compared to them and who's able to cast the spell used to create them."

"Those ponies were turned to ice when Edge used her powers and her sword on them but that leaves us with the issue of how to beat them ourselves," Mallow nodded, the gears in her head now turning as she thought.

"A new power, perhaps?" Lana theorized as the Rainbow Lantern flew up to the group and gently blinked in supposed reassurance.

"You really think so, huh?" Winter asked the lantern, the lantern giving two reassuring blinks as it shook itself up and down at her.

"I think our new friend is right, there's still hope for Berk and all of us," Sunny agreed. "There's still a chance we can beat Skuld and we'll do it with what we have already."

"Like what?"

"We don't have anything that can take her and her minions down," Stoick and Gobber put in.

"That part is easy-y-y-y-y," Pipp sang to them.

"We have each other!" Izzy nodded.

"And, our friendship!" Zipp announced in agreement.

"Together forever," Hitch agreed, the Mane 5 putting their hooves together as they shouted, "Hooves to hearts!"

It was at that moment when the new power Lana spoke of finally came to light; when the Mane 5 reaffirmed their pact, their Cutie Marks glowed together, and six streams of magic flowed out from them which were absorbed into the Rainbow Lantern as if it was tied to their magic. The Rainbow Lantern soon started spinning as it glowed and its glow became brighter before it unleashed a small wave of magic that conjured up seven colored diamond gemstones (being in white, light pink, lilac, light amber, gold, yellow, and crimson red) coupled with a star-shaped gemstone in apricot orange that appeared out of thin air.

"Unbelievable!"

"Amazing!"

"What are those things?"

"Those look like gems!"

"Gemstones?"

"Unreal!" Some of the other humans remarked in surprise.

"No way......."

"Oh, man, I did not see that coming," Pipp and Zipp put in, stunned as they watched with widened eyes.

"Neato!" Izzy buzzed excitedly as the three fillies cooed in awe and curiosity at the gemstones.

"What's the deal with this lantern?" Snotlout remarked.

"I can't get anything about of it," Fishlegs admitted.

"It's a new one to me," Astrid noted.

"Anybody mind filling us in on this weird lantern giving us the blinkies?" Zenna asked on the Vikings' behalf.

Sunny smiled as she looked at the lantern floating back to her and said, "It was made for me by my dad, I've had it with me since I was only a filly. We're still learning about it and its power but it's said to contain a new form of magic unlike any other from our world known as Prisbeam Power."

"It looks like it's capable of creating mythical objects like those stones," Hitch theorized, looking at the gemstones.

Sunny gasped as the word "gemstones" ran through her head and she then cried out in realization, "I remember now!"

"What?" her friends then puzzled, confused.

"Those aren't just gemstones, they're the Elements of Harmony! Twilight once told us that she and her friends, as the Guardians of Harmony, used to wield similar artifacts like them; they're said to be the most powerful form of magic known to all of Ponykind and they grew from their original source of power-the Tree of Harmony-until both it and the Elements were destroyed in the final battles leading up to Twilight's coronation as the Supreme Princess. They might be the new reflection of the original elements, I knew it was strange and had powerful magic but I never thought it would have this much magic!"

"The Elements of Harmony?" Hitch asked Sunny who just nodded.

"Twilight also told me that the Elements she and her friends once represented are a reflection of the main characteristics that made them who they are back then: she was Magic, Fluttershy - Kindness, Rarity - Generosity, Pinkie Pie - Laughter, Rainbow Dash - Loyalty, Applejack - Honesty....... It was the same as the Pillars were in their day: Starswirl - Sorcery, Mage Meadowbrook- Healing, Mistmane - Beauty, Somnambula - Hope, Flash Magnus - Bravery, Rockhoof - Strength. The exact Elements are never known because they change with each team of wielders depending on who proves themselves to be worthy of their power based on their character until they are finally found."

"Magic gems that choose their bearers?"

"So, what do they do, exactly?" Hiccup and Astrid pondered.

"Celestia and Luna said that when their true power is unleashed, the Elements would turn their opponents into stone statues for imprisonment or purify them of all evil within their hearts. They're never used to fight nor for revenge since that goes against their real purpose: to heal those who had been wronged."

"Indeed; the Elements helped me to see and right the wrongs I made because of my jealousy towards my sister and the ones she made towards me and returned me to my old form. But, their magic will evolve over time," Luna concurred.

"Not bad, that means the ponies have their own justice system to determine the kind of punishment Equestria's criminals would have if any serious crimes are committed," Robin remarked, scratching his chin thoughtfully.

"Does that mean that this Equestria has its own spiritual guardians that have been watching over them since they came to be?" Starfire inquired, getting a knowing nod from Sunny and Luna.

"If that's the case, who are the ones that are supposed to be the new bearers of those elements if they can't be used by one person?" Henna inquired.

"Since they act on their own accord as to who can use them, that's mainly up to the Elements alone," Sarah replied.

"And, if they're used by one bearer alone, then that bearer is forced to experience the pain and suffering of the bearer or bearers that had been targeted should they turn to the dark side," Luna added gravely. "That's exactly what happened to me and Tia when she was forced to use them alone after I allowed Nightmare Moon to come to life from my anger and jealousy towards her and the loneliness from being alone."

"So, I guess they're really picky when it comes to who gets to keep them, huh?" Beast Boy remarked awkwardly, trying to put it to Luna gently.

As if to answer Henna's question, five of the Elements drifted their way to Sunny and her friends, recognizing their presence and shining their lights down on them as they floated from above. Izzy, Zipp, Pipp, and Hitch's Elements (in light amber, white, light pink, and lilac respectfully) fixed themselves as necklaces around the four ponies' necks with the gems being shaped like their Cutie Marks while Sunny's Element (in apricot orange) placed itself on her head before becoming a blue crown with its gem now in the shape of her own Cutie Mark.

"Unbelievable," Luna said, awestruck.

"........The Elements," Izzy gasped.

"They choose us."

"We're their new bearers," Zipp and Pipp breathed in awe.

"But, how...... Why?" Hitch pondered in astonishment.

"I think I know," Sunny realized, recognizing what their new Elements represented as she turned to each of her friends.

"Hitch, you've always have been kind and compassionate to animals as Fluttershy had once been and you were always looking out for others, that means you're worthy enough to earn her Element - Kindness. Zipp, you've always been loyal and brave when it comes to protecting your friends so that qualifies you to wield Rainbow Dash's Element - Loyalty. Pipp, you always gave back to others and you've been helping everypony solve their problems when they needed help the most and that has allowed you to wield Rarity's Element of Generosity. Izzy, you've always been able to make everypony smile and laugh and you're the happiest and most optimistic pony I've ever had the pleasure to meet, it's only fair if you had Pinkie Pie's Element of Laughter."

"And, you may be an Earth Pony but you understood and believed in the Magic of Friendship which is why you've never stopped trying to bring everypony together as your dad did and that translates to your best Element - Sorcery," Izzy deducted, immediately getting what Sunny was saying and knowing what her Element was.

"These Elements resonate with us when we showed our true talents and after we brought back magic to Equestria!" Zipp gasped in delight.

"And, together, they ended up creating the most powerful magic of all: our friendship~!" Pipp agreed.

"But, that leaves only two Elements for two other ponies or people to embody while we have our original five. So, who's going to take them while we each have our own?" Hitch pointed out, looking at the remaining two Elements.

"Ooh, ooh, ohh!"

"We know, we know, we know!"

"Pick us, pick us, pick us, pick us, pick us, pick us, pick us-!" Yamper, Pastry, Muffin, Danish, and Fritter barked happily in response as their happy barking soon drove Eternatus bananas.

"OKAY, OKAY! Now, tell us, furballs, who are those rocks going to?" he questioned bluntly.

The five Puppy Pokemon, eager to prove themselves right about their hunches, bounced over to the remaining two Elements and nudged them over to Race and Sarah, the pair looking baffled as the Elements sensed their presence and hovered above them as they also shined their lights down upon the young couple.

"You?!" the Mane 5 gasped in surprise.

"Of course! Your love, compassion, and your kindness have allowed you to receive those new Elements; Master Race, you've always been a faithful and loyal companion to anyone and everyone you meet. Miss Sarah, you're very skilled and you've never given up hope on others," Newt deducted. "There's no doubt in my mind that those last two Elements were meant for you."

The others were also surprised but Snotlout, Tuffnut, and Ruffnut gave fake coughs that hid sniggers over how cheesy the whole thing was, and even Barf, Belch, and Hookfang couldn't help but snigger quietly in agreement. This got the attention of Raven (Teen Titan) and Persian and they threw a fist of darkness and a small Power Gem that knocked the three Vikings down with faceplants and exploded in their dragons' faces as they yelped and got covered in soot and smoke, all three of them opening their mouths with a "pop" as smoke came out and they fell back (the audience laughing again as a result).

"Race......." Sarah began as she and her boyfriend looked at each other after eying their Elements, the former Battle Frontier Champion nodding once she knew she was thinking.

The little princess reached out to the Elements and they responded to her and her power, changing shape as they went to their new owners and landed on their heads, changing into gold crowns as the gems on them revealed their greatest traits: Hope and Faith.

What set the Elements of Hope and Faith apart from Sunny's is that the former's gemstone is a golden yellow and white shield that had a pink heart in the center while having three white and hold hearts on both sides from it and attached to the shield was a pair of wings that had rainbow feathers on it. The latter, on the other hand, was instead an eight-point star without any of the fancy decorations done on it.

Once they were situated with their owners, the magic from the Elements was triggered and they allowed Sarah and Race to regain their pony forms with Sarah's Alicorn form now having white shoes with gold outlines and a crown that had Celestia and Luna's Cutie Marks imprinted on it.

Even Race's pony form had been changed to accommodate the new magic he got from his Element, his crimson Pegasus form now acquiring a unicorn horn and the strength of an Earth Pony, technically making him an Alicorn as well. His mane had change, now having a black stripe in the middle of his mane and tail.

Sarah's Cutie Mark also gained a change from the Element of Hope being entrusted to her; the little princess' new Cutie Mark became similar to her Element's gemstone but with the addition of the wings to the shield that was golden yellow and had a splash of white on top.

"Auntie Sarah and Uncle Race!" Danish barked happily along with her sisters.

"So, that's it, humans are capable of using magical objects such as them and those creatures, too....... Impressive,” Chien-Pao admitted in his own fascination.

"........What?" breathed Race in disbelief as he saw his wings before he groaned in humiliation. "This is not happening......"

"I.......guess you look like me and Sunny now," Sarah remarked sheepishly.

"What are they, by the way?" Zipp asked again, looking at the new Elements.

"........Hope and Faith," smiled Sunny in response some thinking.

"Can we get one, too?"

"Cool!" Barf and Belch breathed in amazement after picking themselves up and seeing what was in front of them, forcing Edge Blade to give them a leveled deadpan.

But, the Rainbow Lantern wasn't done with its miracles yet; the magical object then made its way to Edge as it then drew her attention. She looked at it curiously and wondered what it was up to until it blinked at her and coated her with its PrisBeam Magic as her body shimmered in response to its power. Once it had finished its work, it finally stopped and returned to Sunny's side as everybody looked at her, wondering what the lantern did.

"........What a weird lantern," Edge finally spoke before she realized something had changed about her and she felt her throat while quietly gasping. ".....I-I have a, a voice....... I can talk now......."

"Nice voice."

"Smooth," Astrid and Fishlegs remarked, smiling after hearing Edge finally speak.

Zipp blinked in surprise as she researched what had happened on her phone while she remarked, "Note to self; when nearby a mute pony having proven herself to be a friend, Prisbeam Magic can give that pony a new voice."

"........I, I can see that. At least, that eliminates me using sign language 24/7 since my 'mother' never bothered to give me a voice ever since my creation," Edge said to herself before she looked at the Mane 5, Sarah, and Race. "But, what we're seeing here is the truth; you are the newest generation of the Elements of Harmony but instead of six, there are seven of you with seven gemstones and characteristics to match - Honesty, Loyalty, Generosity, Hope, Faith, Kindness, and Sorcery."

"Okay, that's all well and good but what else can we use against that nightmare?" Snotlout inquired after he, Ruffnut, Tuffnut, and their dragons picked themselves up from their faceplants.

"I think I know," Sarah replied, bringing out her own Pup Pad (made and designed by Aurora and with golden yellow and purple control pads from the right and left and had the Dragonstone Patrol insignia on the back) and calling Robo-Dog Standard Mk-1 and Driver MK-2, "MK-1, MK-2, bring in the Dragonstone, or rather, Stormwing Patroller, boys."

The two robot dogs barked in agreement to her order before they appeared minutes later and the Stormwing Patroller came into view and landed before everybody, leaving the Vikings and everybody else that had no idea about the Dragonstone Patrol in surprise and awe.

"Whoa......"

"Awesome!"

"Cool!"

"Sweet!"

"Incredible!" the Viking teens remarked as the other Vikings and their dragons gave surprised gasps and warbles when they saw the robotic dogs opening the door and welcoming everybody aboard with a bark.

"Boys, take us to Mission Claw HQ for a brief on Operation: Take Back," Sarah announced to the robot dogs as they nodded and set the coordinates for their next destination while preparing for takeoff.

"Mission Claw HQ?" Hiccup and his friends echoed in confusion as everybody boarded the Stormwing Patroller.

"Wanna run that by us again?" Zenna added, their dragons also sharing their confusion as they chirped at her.

"You'll know soon enough when we get there," Sarah replied as her dragons and her Pokemon that can fly (including her Flying Types) remained outside to guard the jet as they set off.

Quietly and discreetly, they arrived back at Berk, and thankfully, the robotic dogs drove the jet at about 30 ft of shore and under Skuld and her forces' noses to where a landing pad was raised without their knowledge and the Storming Patroller landed and it was taken down to a nearby elevator. The Viking teens and their dragons were left in awe as they took in the sight of the HQ's interior, being decked out in Gronckle Iron sporting red, orange, yellow, green, coral, blue, and purple highlights on the walls and along the ground.

"Sweet digs!" Beast Boy cried, his eyes twinkling as he looked around the building's interior.

"Nice layout," Raven remarked.

"This place isn't half bad," Robin said, looking impressed.

"I like the design of this place, almost like our tower but with a medieval twist," Cyborg commented.

"Oh, yes, very interesting," Starfire chirped.

"Man, underwater base, ya kidding me? Totally freaky," Hiccup commented, humbled and surprised by what Sarah and her family and friends had done for the Vikings.

"Thought you might need this so you don't have anybody getting the drop on you again, like having a team base of your own to fall back on if your home gets busted," Sarah replied.

"All of this, for us?" Zenna remarked in awe.

"Since you've been a big help to us ever since we first met, I felt you deserve something akin to a hero's base for your work to help make your world a better place. Therefore, if you're gonna be what I would call 'Dragon Knights' (albeit the first responders to any dragons and Vikings in trouble and in need of your help), you gotta have the gear."

"Dragon Knights?"

"Hmm........I like that," Fishlegs and Astrid commented thoughtfully.

"In case you're wondering, the NightWings, Aurora, Cam, Arcia, and I built it together and Marena, Sol, and the Spirits gave you guys their approval when we proposed it to them."

"Sweet!" Snotlout cheered.

"So, Edge, you once mentioned that you had a 'mother' before you met up with Sarah, right? Do you really hate her that much judging from what you've given us before you finally got your voice?" Astrid questioned the goth-punk Alicorn.

"Hmph, a power trip-loving psychopath like her doesn't deserve to be called my mother, not after killing the Guardians of Harmony the way she did after creating Scarlet Nightmare and ravaging Equestria until it became a shadow of its former self," Edge snorted in disgust, turning away from the Viking teens and causing them along with some of the others (who are completely in the dark about Equestria's past and downfall) to gasp in shock and disbelief.

"Edge......"

"Dude......"

"Whoa......" Robin, Beast Boy, and Hiccup trailed off.

"Does that mean-?" Zenna inquired, stunned.

Edge lowered her head but confirmed to everyone as she grimaced, "That monster, with her leftover magic, managed to create me....."

"Your creator......"

"She was......" Astrid and Cyborg breathed in growing shock and disbelief.

"Opaline," the Mane 5 and the Mighty Ones confirmed gravely, shocking everyone still in the dark about her origins.

Starfire gasped in stunned shock while Raven (Teen Titan) breathed in total horror (realizing that Edge's origins are deeply similar yet parallel to her own given that she was created by her own "father", Trigon), "No!"

"How can that be? She busted up all her magic after she rocked your world and she got her ass kicked out of there twice!" Snotlout remarked in disbelief.

"I'd imagine she'd have magical reserves on her should she exhaust her power entirely and planned ahead with a Plan C under our noses although given that Edge Blade rebelled against Opaline and abandoned her, that didn't work out well," Tamu noted.

"And, even a portion of it or a ritual spell would've required less than that to achieve," Raven (Demon Wolf) added.

"It does explain your Fire Manipulation, at least," Edgar pondered as he looked at Edge Blade. "If that's so, she would've transferred some of her powers to you when she made you, to begin with."

"Guess it also explains why you were mute until that lantern thingy gave you your voice," Thundereon replied.

"And, allowed you to talk-bzt," Manteon nodded.

"Indeed, she took precautions on that knowing that if you talk back to her, she'd be giving you a dire punishment for your rebellious nature," Totem Luxray admitted.

"She never missed a trick like that, not in her miserable life," Edge Blade concurred with a scoff about Opaline.

She then sighed as she admitted, "But, really, I should thank her for doing what she did; she may have created me but she went a dial too far. She gave me enough free will to make me think for myself, I was able to see who Opaline was under the surface: a cold, calculating, selfish, arrogant, manipulative monster who cares about nopony else but herself, and loves to bring about despair and misery."

"And, just like that, you bailed on her?" Andres commented, getting another confirming nod from Edge.

"Shortly after she created her fillies, and having enough of her demonic crap, I stowed them all away from her castle and fled, never looking back once while knowing she would be on my tail in any way possible no matter where I go. Opaline originally created the babies to raise them under her beliefs after they were born but I wasn't going to let her do as she pleases with them which is why I took them away and raised them for the last twenty-one years of my life until I brought them to Maretime Bay. It was my hope that they'd be found and raised by someone who'd be more than happy to raise them the right way, to love and be happy......"

"And, on that day, you chose Auntie Sarah, our family, and Sunny to take them in?" Cocoa questioned.

Edge Blade nodded again as she continued once more, "After I came across them, I explained to them why I'm leaving the babies in their care and they've agreed to protect them from Opaline without question, consequently allowing Sunny to take me in as her adopted sister or daughter as well. I've never been more relieved to hear that, knowing that if our 'mother' knew we left. she'd come knocking to try and take us back by force. As a result, by default, we also gained extended family through them all, especially since one of the princesses of old, Cadence, I believe, had extensive experience of being a mother or a family woman from what I've known."

"I suppose it's only natural when it comes to that but if Opaline does show her face again, it'll only be a matter of time since she's close to Maretime Bay and Bridlewood as we speak," Ryu concurred, folding his arms in thought. "Now, though, the odds are in our favor at the moment; we now have someone that can match her in terms of magical strength and combat."

"You and the little ones (when they come of age) will be invaluable to all of us, Edge," Luna agreed.

"Wait, wait, wait, time out. Let's back up here, there's just one thing I don't get," Hitch halted, also having a question on his mind for Edge while she pampered the little fillies as they fluttered towards her again. "If you had those fillies for the last twenty-one years after you ran away from Opaline, how come you're the only one who's grown older compared to them?"

"They had Opaline's Age Stasis spell placed on them after they were created (with my 'mother' forcing me to help out in the process with that bit, no doubt) so when I took them and ran off, I removed it without a second thought. Seeing as they were the only Alicorns in existence at the time before we knew of Sunny and all of you when you set off on your magic-restoring adventure, I didn't want any of them growing up with the knowledge that they're the only ones of their kind left. Me; Alicorns are immortal so since I'm still 21 right now, thank my immortality for that."

"An Age Stasis spell?! That's really advanced magic!" gasped Sunny in surprise.

"And, well beyond a wizard or witch of exceptional skill, I should say," Newt remarked.

"Did you happen to name the babies before you met up with them?" Henna questioned Edge, eyeing the babies as they faced the Vikings and everyone else who knew nothing about the quartet until now.

Edge had to smile as she introduced the new fillies as they waved and then landed on her back and her head for company, going from the cream and rainbow-feathered filly on her head and then to the lilac and pink fillies on her back, "Snowdrop Winterfell, Glimmer Glow and Tempest Sparkle."

The girls cooed over the names Edge had chosen for the fillies but Edge wasn't done as she gave a disgruntled sigh and spoke again, "But, one time, when I did reconnaissance to see how Opaline's getting on, I discovered that she had taken in a unicorn she rescued as her own when she was a filly as her 'daughter'. Her name is Misty and I don't think she knows about her true objective, yet."

"Rescued her, huh? Pft, doubt it, I bet she couldn't even see out of her hairdo the meaning of family if she saw something less in Misty but kept her on for insurance if her criminal past is anything to go by," Astrid snorted doubtfully.

"Why bother adopting a filly that had no family if she's going to use her as her pawn in her game of Magical Chess?" Inferhound thought with narrowed and disgusted eyes.

"Your guess is as good as mine," Edge remarked as she continued again.

"Anyway, I've managed to keep tabs on them in the Dark Castle after sneaking back dozens of times without warning, and from what I've found, Misty is basically Fluttershy but if she's a unicorn instead of a Pegasus. The Dark Castle is also northwest form Maretime Bay and at the same time, west of Bridlewood. But, at the moment, it's under the radar so no chance at the moment of getting to them if you want to charge the place prematurely if any of you plan to take the fight to Opaline herself."

"What?!"

"No way!"

"She's that close to Bridlewood and Maretime Bay?" Zipp, Pipp, and Izzy gawked in shock.

"I wouldn't worry too much; because of the secrecy of the castle's exact location, she got nothing on us," Edge reassured.

"If that's the case, I think it's time for you guys to suit up. If you would like to step inside," Sarah finished, now gesturing towards the elevator.

With that, the Viking Teens and their dragons along with Henna, Edgar, Stoick, and Gobber all stepped inside the elevator before the Teen Titans, the Mane 5, and the Mighty Ones joined in along with Sarah, Race, Edge Blade, and the filly trio. The elevator first took them down to what is called a Change Room (housed within the Dragonstone Patrol's insignia) where they were given their Dragon Scale Armor uniforms and the dragons were given their own Beast-X Dragon Armor collars that had the same powers that Sarah's dragons had barring the Pokemon moves (being designed instead for use with their ancestors' Move Cards).

The new Dragon Scale Armor for the Vikings was nearly identical to the armor Sarah made but it instead has the insignia of the Pyrrah and Pantala Tribes on the shoulder pads, all of it equipped with similar gear including grappling hooks, cables (with auto-retractors), radars, x-ray visors, and so on. This also included new Wrist Coms for Astrid, Snotlout, Fishlegs, the twins, Gobber, and Stoick.

The newly-made Dragon Bracers and Gadgets developed for them were also modeled after both tribes and they were programmed to work in sync with their armor.

The armor made for Hiccup and Zenna was based on Toothless and Stryka from the Night Wing insignia shown on their shoulder pads with Astrid's armor based on Stormfly with its new IceWing insignia, Fishlegs with Meatlug by the MudWing insignia, Henna and Edgar with Ruffnut and Tuffnut via Barf and Belch from the RainWing insignia (the armor for the former pair being maroon with purple spots to differentiate them), Snotlout with Hookfang with the SkyWing insignia, Stoick's armor with Charger from the SandWing insignia, and Gobber's armor was based on a dragon called a Hotbuple that had the LeafWing insignia on the shoulder pads.

As for the dragons' collars, Toothless and Stryka's collars were a deep purple, Hookfang's collar was blood red, Stormfly's collar was sky blue, Meatlugs' collar is a muddy brown, and Barf and Belch's collars are lime green.

"Whoa!" Hiccup gasped, looking over himself in his new armor as his friends did the same with their own as they shared his amazement.

Finally, they arrived in what is the Development Floor for the new HQ and once they entered, everybody discovered that it was designed after a large garage or airport hanger that had a tunnel exit coupled with a large monitor against the wall on the right.

"Nice digs, dudes! Now, like Race and Sarah, you're all loaded!" Beast Boy complimented, seeing the Vikings and their dragons now decked out in their new gear.

"Cam and the NightWings managed to program the new Beast-X Armor and Dragon Bracers and Gadgets for you and your dragons, thus allowing your partners to use the Move Cards that hold the moves Chomp and the other dinosaurs use," Sarah told the Viking teens.

"So, that means they'll use different moves as they did according to their elements?" Hiccup questioned.

"Right; Toothless and Stryka can now use lightning moves, Stormfly is able to use wind moves now, Meatlugs can use Earth Moves, Hookfang will use Fire Moves, and Barf and Belch can use Grass Moves," Race added.

"Neato!"

"Great Thor's hiney!" the twins cheered, excited.

"Oh, and Snotlout, just remember to use them when you really need them the most. You saw how much damage Chomp and the dinos can inflict on their enemies, especially with the amount of power used by the Fire Moves," Sarah warned, eyeing Snotlout with an expectant look.

"'Ey, you talkin' 'bout me?" Snotlout huffed indignantly.

Astrid had to smirk as she slyly told Snotlout, "She is, Snotty. Besides, remember the time you dissed Hookfang for four hours straight and he went prank-happy on you with his Fire Jacket?"

"Get real, Astrid! You don't even know how to handle a Monstrous Nightmare such as Hookfang like I do, I was just demonstrating my respect for him and he gives it to me in return," Snotlout replied with a smug smile only for Hookfang to roll his eyes at his cocky rider in annoyance before he swiped his tail at him and Snotlout dodged his first swing. "Ha! See, nothing to it. He knows better than to trifle with me when I'm doing my thing."

Hookfang just gave a smug smirk as he whipped his tail back and smacked him in the face, causing him to backflip in midair with a yelp and faceplant on the floor, thus making the audience laugh again (causing one of the SandWings doing the music prompted to cheekily sneak in a comic rimshot to add to the humor). Hookfang loudly laughed at his rider but Snotlout just sulked and glared at him.

"You know what I think to celebrate your newfound glows?" Izzy said eagerly, still as bubbly as ever. "This calls for a plan of action through a song!"

"Fabulous~!" Pipp sang, feeling as eager to sing again.

"Oh, brother," groaned Zipp as her ears flattened and the music kicked in just as Hiccup and his friends along with their dragons, Stoick, and Gobber, prepared for what was to come for them.

(Every New Day (Is The Best Day Ever) - My Little Pony: Tell Your Tale)

Pipp ~ A Brand New Day

A Brand New Chance to bend the way

To be my very best today

Then, Sarah pressed another button on her Pup Pad before a hatch flipped over and revealed new vehicles for the Vikings, Stoick, and Gobber that are known as the Draconic Racers:

Hiccup's Strike Fury Cruiser was designed after the princess' Night Light Cruiser but his cruiser was modeled after Toothless, having the tail fins in black and red (left tail fin - black, right tail fin - red) and the Strike Class symbol being shown proudly on the hood. Zenna's Night Strike, on the other hand, was modeled after Liberty's Power Scooter but it was all black and it had a dark violet stripe along the middle and sides with the Strike Class symbol flanked on both sides of the pad of the rear end.

And live my very best cause you've only one now

Get only one now

The Nadder Tornado belonging to Astrid was designed after a classic biplane of the day and modeled in Stormfly's likeness with her colors to match.

The Gronckle Hover for Fishlegs took its design from Meatlugs as a hovercraft with brown plates lined up on its sides.

Snotlout's Monstrous Firetruck took its design cues from Kiawe's Fire Trucker but it instead has Hookfang's color scheme which included his trademark stripes.

Even the twins, Henna, and Edgar's Zippleback Rushers were modeled and designed after Tucker, Ella, Nikki, and James' vehicles with the twins' cars matching in appearance with Barf and Belch in color and Henna and Edgar's being more in maroon with purple spots.

As for Stoick, his Rumble Crusher was designed after Chase's Adventure City Police Cruiser, decked out in a majority of light blue with silver in the middle and being model after Charger despite the color scheme.

And, finally, Gobber's Hotburple Sparkler was designed after Mallow's Recycle Sparkler but is modeled after a Hotburple dragon, being decked out most oft in beige and having a brown strip running down the middle.

Izzy ~ Sometimes, it may feel like a bit of a circus

That’s just fine by me because I like it that way

"Say 'hello' to your new Draconic Racers," Sarah announced to the Vikings as she presented them with their new vehicles.

"Whoa...."

"No, way....."

"Unbelievable," Hiccup, Zenna, and Astrid gawked in awe as their dragons warbled in fascination as they looked over the vehicles.

"Great Thor, shine down!"

"Awesome!"

"Now, this is what we're talking about!"

"Yeah, baby!" Snotlout, Fishlegs, Tuffnut, and Ruffnut cheered.

"What a horde of remarkable machinery."

"By Thor's great might," Stoick and Gobber said in stunned amazement as they went to their vehicles.

Newt, preparing to join them, boarded his Mega Royal Sprinter as it joined him before Hiccup opened the door to his cruiser and he and Toothless went inside with the latter happily bumbling as he joined his best friend. Then, Beast Boy morphed into a crane while Cyborg and Robin brought in the R-Cycle and the T-Car while Starfire and Raven preferred to fly. And, since Izzy and Hitch couldn't fly, Sefu and Tamu decided to carry them while Zipp and Pipp prepared their wings and Sunny summoned her wings and horn but the filly trio was gently ushered to stay with Cresselia so they stay safe and don't cause trouble.

The Thrill of Adventure, it fills me with purpose

It keeps me on my hooves! And, yeah! That's how it's gonna stay!

"Road trip!" Cyborg declared.

Upon that signal from Cyborg, everybody in their vehicles soon hit the gas as they set off through a tunnel that lead them back outside as the younger and baby Pokemon and dragon hatchlings and even the filly trio danced along to the music playing.

Mane 5 ~ Every day so bright

Every day is full of magic

The entire group darted through the tunnel as they made their way through and out back into the open in their vehicles or running and flying alongside the entire entourage, moving through the forest surrounding Berk and the Vikings' village as the song continued.

Carefree day, feels right, every day is a classic

Toothless and the other dragons smiled at each other as they and their riders passed by one another along the way, feeling confident and happy for the first time in hours since being booted out of Berk the first time by Skuld now that they have the means to take her down. Their, Stoick, and Gobber's fortunes were only about to get better as Cansu, Starlight, and Stryka then fired a combined plasma shot that created a purple shockwave in the sky, signaling that the tide has turned and that Skuld should watch out because the original inhabitants of the Viking island are coming home to roost and take back what is rightfully theirs now.

And, just when I think it can't get any better

Every new day is the best day ever!

Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh!

It's like, it's like, every new day is the best day ever!

Act 2 END

With the middle of the play now coming to an end and as the audience clapped and cheered, Discord changed the scenery again to the outskirts of Berk to begin the final act of the show, Act 3.

Act 3

After making their way through the forest, everybody arrived at the outskirts of the main village with the Vikings' Draconic Runners put in Stealth Mode (this particular mode giving the runners a black coating that had a faint neon glow), allowing the Vikings and their dragon companions to sneak back within the perimeters of their home. Sarah, Race, and Edge were hovering alongside them with the former two aboard Winter and Thunder as the first ones with them to lead the charge against Skuld, and in addition, Toothless, Stryka, Hookfang, Stormfly, Meatlugs, and Barf and Belch had their new Beast-X Dragon Armor worn so they would begin the charge against their biggest enemy to date since the Red Death Queen.

"Skuld and her guards could have us tracked at any moment and if we even make one step towards the village to get her, they could see us," Astrid pointed out, seeing the village already under Skuld's tyranny with some of her resurrected Frost Ponies lurking about on patrol. "Sarah, this is going to take a lot more than brute strength and Viking pride to help us take back our home."

"That's why we've made everything for you and your dragons including your armor, this will be your response to any and all threats towards you guys following Skuld's invasion and the Red Death Queen incident," Sarah replied. "Not only that, we need a foolproof plan to take back Berk from under her nose and then we'll clobber her once she's let her guard down and after we put the chess pieces we have in place."

She turned to Hiccup and Zenna, knowing what they must do, "Alright, Hiccup, Zenna, what's the plan?"

The former Viking underdogs blinked in surprise at the princess, "What, us?!"

"Are you out of your mind?"

"You two were responsible for getting everybody in your village to warm up to and learn the truth about the dragons, that makes you the natural leaders. Whatever you have in mind to put Skuld down and regain Berk, I'm all for it, we all are. So, what's the sitch?"

"Oh, come on!" groaned Snotlout, pouting.

"And, why them exactly?" Fishlegs pondered skeptically.

"I trust them to do what is right for everybody in Berk after they made the miracle of dragons and Vikings living in harmony happen the moment they met and became friends with Toothless and Stryka. This whole thing and more will help them realize that they're more than what they used to be in their people's eyes back then and it didn't help that all of you always put them down because all they wanted was to be a true Viking while you guys were still at war with the dragons no thanks to the Red Death. If we're going to get you guys out of this mess, then Hiccup and Zenna would have to regain their self-confidence by taking charge in this mission for they could still be the hope your home needs."

Hiccup and Zenna nervously looked at their friends and their dragons as well as Toothless and Stryka, all of them giving knowing and reassuring nods (and a disgruntled yet trusting nod from Snotlout) and even Gobber and Stoick as well as Henna and Edgar offered their support for whatever plan they have in store for Skuld and her forces. It was clear that after everything that happened since the pair first met Sarah and her family, they were now willing to throw their support behind them all the way and be more supportive of whatever decisions they make and help them make the right ones and make the difficult ones more bearable should anything go wrong.

Knowing this and remembering that they still have the compassion and support of their first true friends with them, the two best friends grew determined and returned their nods before Hiccup pulled out a map of the entire village and they started to brainstorm their plan.

"Okay, we're up against a power-hungry and vengeful winged unicorn with a horde of Frost Ponies. First, we must detain her forces and dwindle them down so we'll only have Skuld to deal with and that's where we expect the Mighty Ones to come in," Hiccup began.

Zenna agreed as she turned to Ryu and his brother and sisters along with Edge Blade, "Ryu, Edge, you guys are up first. We need Drake to make the most out of his shapeshifting to lure each of them into a trap and turn them all into puddles and Edge, since you're more formidable with Elemental Manipulation as well as your swords, try to get them into contact with their natural weakness, fire."

Hiccup nodded in agreement before he turned to Astrid with her part of the plan, "Astrid, somehow, you and Stormfly got to use the Naddler Tornado and her unique flight patterns to get the drop on and blind them from the air so they don't use the element of surprise on us. Her new wind attacks and armor, I've discovered from Sarah, will help improve her speed and agility and make them similar to those of her raptors given their bird-like body structure."

"Right," Astrid complied with a knowing nod.

"Got it," Stormfly nodded.

"Snotlout, you and the others rile up the Frost Ponies to get their attention. As long as they're focused on us, Skuld will have no idea what happened to them and she'll be left open for us to make our move."

"Kick it!"

"Easy!" Ruffnut and Snotlout smirked.

"Once Skuld is left without her forces coming to help her after she's a sitting duck, we then hound her with one of Sarah and Race's dinosaurs, given that they use the Element of Light, and use the Elements of Harmony on her after she's trapped with no hope of escape," Zenna continued.

"Very plausible at best, Ms. Zenna, the Light Dinosaurs do lack the weaknesses that the other dinosaurs and the Pokemon have. One of them also makes use of the Element of Ice," Newt pondered thoughtfully. "And, they include the princess and Race's new Cryolophosauruses-Elvis and Elite-along with the Pachycephalosaurs, their Deinochyus trio, Therizinosaurs, and Megalosaurus."

"They should be the edge we need to further weaken Skuld and Raven and Towie can also match her with their black magic," Sarah thought.

"Sunny, that's when you and your friends come next. Use the Elements when Skuld leaves herself open and don't let up so she doesn't try to pull a fast one on us but maintain constant vigilance and be flexible should she have a backup plan in mind," Hiccup informed.

"In that sense, we'll use 'Hit & Run' to get the drop on her and if we can, let's hope she doesn't change her fighting technique or her style on us," Zenna finished.

"We'll do our best," Sunny nodded.

"YAY! This is great, our first-ever battle with the best of the best!" Izzy cheered, giving Sunny a bear hug while getting a worried yet annoyed facehoof from Hitch as he groaned.

"Locked and loaded, piece of cake," smirked Snotlout.

"A very tactical play of maneuvers utilizing the old 'Bait & Switch' and 'Hit & Run', not bad," Fishlegs complimented.

"You want it done?"

"You got your Vikings!" the twins finished knowingly with sly winks.

"Okay, guys, this is it. This is where it all ends here and you guys are the heart of our gameplan, I'm counting on you," Sarah said to the Vikings and the Mane 5 along with the Mighty Ones and Edge, putting out her hand for a solemn vow and making the others do the same as they shared the vow they'll make. ".......Let's do it."

With a group push from everyone and the vow to do whatever it takes to take back Berk according to the plan Hiccup and Zenna made, the group splits to begin their mission of retaking Berk and putting an end to Skuld and her tyranny.

Down below, with Berk now in their master's hands, the Frost Ponies were marching out on patrol, looking for any signs of Skuld's enemies should they trespass on what is now her territory. Out of sight, Wu and Wei looked over one of the huts they were on and blew their mist attack to coat the entire area they were currently looking down on in a thick fog. The Frost Ponies were confused by this but dismissing it as merely something by mother nature, they ignored it and carried on with their patrol.

What caught their interest, however, was a figure with the likeliness of 'Toothless' walking over calmly to them and they immediately frowned at him for daring to come back. 'Toothless' quickly made an about-face and ran from them, prompting the pony-like snowmen in frost and ice on patrol to chase after him until they ended up at a dead end where they found Edge waiting for them. They reeled back in horror but it was too late for them to backtrack as the goth punk-like Alicorn quickly cast a Ring of Fire with her Fire Magic to trap them inside with her and she soon made short work out of them with her katana, turning them all into puddles as they silently or faintly screamed from her assault.

'Toothless' transformed into Drake as it was him who had duped the Frost Ponies that were shish-kabobed and he and Edge shared a knowing high-five.

Next, it was Astrid and Stormfly's turn to take a crack at the Frost Ponies as they flew over to the eastern side of their home. From up in the skies on her Naddler Tornado with her partner by her side on her right, and flanked by an invisible Feathers and Night Light Elder to their right, the Viking tomboy looked down on the Frost Ponies out on patrol and being none the wiser to the assault being carried out on their accomplices.

"Okay, Elder, Feathers, do your thing," Astrid signaled, allowing the two dragons to fly down to the island and sneak around the area to do a quick round of reconnaissance before making their move.

They landed on the ground and hid in a safe spot (where one of the heroes' next surprise assault traps) as Feathers mimicked Hookfang's warbles, drawing the attention of the Frost Pony platoon before they went over to the safe spot to investigate. Ultimately, they've found themselves at the mercy of a cloaked Aegis, Gale, Haze, Thunder, Dart, Pouncer, Ruffrunner (who managed to stay awake for the plan despite the fact that it was nighttime), Zap, Splattertail, and Goggles as they surrounded the platoon and shocked them with a barrage of lightning blasts that turned them into puddles as well.

This, however, attracted the attention of some of the other Frost Ponies in the area and they quickly rushed over to see what had happened to the previous platoon.

"Good job, guys, I'll block these guys out for ya. I think I'm getting the hang of this thing thanks to the manual and the video instructions that came with it, launching Smokescreen Shooters," Astrid smirked, pushing a button and launching two small ray-like guns that shot smokescreen instead of lasers from the Naddler Tornado's lower connected wing set, covering the eastern side in a thick blanket of fog as well.

The Frost Ponies now investigating the area were startled as they whipped around, trying to get their bearings but not being able to as they didn't know where to look or what to do.

"Yoo-hoo, Frosties! You getting paid by your boss to just stand around there and not dance with a partner or two in this weather? Heh, must be nice!" taunted Snotlout as he, Fishlegs, the twins, and their dragons along with Henna, Edgar, Stoick, and Gobber made themselves known as they arrived in their Draconic Runners.

The taunt from Snotlout and the mockery from the rest of his group got to the Frost Ponies as they silently growled at the intruders before them and chased after the Vikings and the dragons with them as they drove and flew off. They tailed the party as fast as they could but they couldn't understand why their enemies would be more interested in playing a game of "Cat & Mouse" with them instead of fighting back as they once tried.

They would find out soon enough; around a corner, Hiccup, Zenna, Toothless, Stryka, Sarah, her family, Race, the Teen Titans, Sefu, Tamu, the Mane 5, and Raven (Demon Wolf) braced themselves for the platoon that was trailing Snotlout and his party.

"So far, so good," Hiccup breathed, bracing himself and trying to continue fighting his self-conscious nature and nervousness as Aku and Liberty toddled forward a bit and put their ears on the ground to listen for Skuld as she made her own rounds for her intruders.

"It's working great, Hiccup. Relax, you'd make a natural leader for this sort of thing," Cyborg reassured warmly.

"Yes, you and Zenna have calmed yourselves and you've come up with a brilliant series of battle tactics that will ensure us victory against the nightmare that is Skuld," Starfire added.

"Well, I wouldn't say that......" Zenna blushed, scratching the back of her head modestly.

"You're naturals, you guys. Don't sell yourselves short 'cause you got the makings of true heroes within you," smiled Robin knowingly.

"You just didn't know yet until now," agreed Raven (Teen Titan).

"Best buddies know what's up and you're great amongst your friends," Beast Boy nodded. "You two think alike and you're two sides of the same coin, who can deny that?"

Toothless and Stryka nodded in agreement as they waddled up to their riders and gave them their trademark gummy smiles, prompting the former Viking underdogs to smile back.

"........Imbeciles."

"Pack it in, fellas!"

"She's coming," Liberty and Aku whispered to everyone.

The entire party, realizing it was Skuld coming, saw their chance upon this warning and quickly prepared themselves to take on Skuld while the rest kept the Frost Ponies occupied and out of range to give their creator a hand. Speaking of Skuld, the nightmare alicorn in question was sulking as she had been hearing reports from her remaining grunts that the platoons she created and established in different parts of the island had been picked off one by one without warning and she was getting antsy.

"Those bumbling icicle heads, I never should've been too lax with them when I gave them their orders to keep an eye on those fools if they dare come back. Good help is hard to come by these days, I'll tell them that. But, I guess it's how they always say, 'if you want something done right, do it yourself'. Since those fools failed to know what happened to them, I'll deal with them now......."

As Skuld prowled around the fog and kept an eye out for the heroes she was looking for while she ranted about her grunts, she thought she saw a flurry of rainbow sparks glittering from her left. Assuming that the heroes were trying a cheap tactic to draw her out, she went to check out the disturbance only to be attacked five seconds later by a sextet of dinosaurs that emerged from the mist.

The dinosaurs were revealed to be the three secret dinosaurs that were part of Hiccup and Zenna's plan for taking back Berk (Sarah - Dino, Dano, Sue; Race - Speedy, Aries, Beast) and amongst all of them, Dino and Speedy were easy for the heroes to distinguish from one another by the large feather plumage found on each of their heads that were pink with black stripes compared to the rest.

Next, from out of the fog, emerged the other six of their secret dinosaurs which were the Cryolophosaurus, Therizinosaurus, and Megalosaurus pairs (each pair having a male and female in them as mates) as they prepared to launch another assault after the first sextet made their move.

Elvis and Ellie were standing at 6" in height and 23' in length; Slasher and Thayer, on the other hand, were not blind as of yet but they do lack feathers on their feet, claws, and faces that contrast with their grey feathers that had large black areas on their sides, throat bottoms, and atop their heads that are capped off with red crests; finally, Megalo and Rufus were both periwinkle carnivores that had black spots that formed a stripe from their faces tot heir tails, two markings on their legs, and one single marking on their foreheads leading to the black spines found on their backs.

"What?" gasped Skuld in quiet shock as she finally took notice of them and was forced to dodge when they came on the attack. "What are those things?!"

"Good luck trying to break through this new formation we have for you, Skuld. When something lights a fire in those dinos once they're brought out of their cards, that's it," quipped a voice, revealing its owner to be Cyborg as he emerged first from the fog.

"What is this? Are you really that low to pull off something as dirty as a trick like this, just to take back what I've claimed as my own for a statement I'm making against that adulterating man of a bastard Viking?" snarled a flustered Skuld as some of the others in Hiccup and Zenna's party emerged to begin to fight her.

"There's nothing left to say," Ryu scoffed simply.

"You attempted to annihilate our friends just for your pitiful and wrongly-misguided crusade in the name of the power of the female," Starfire remarked with a glare.

"Did you think they wouldn't take it personally even if you do speak the truth about the problem with masculinity?"

"Especially since you've obliterated an entire Viking tribe safe for one in said tribe just to prove your point?" Raven and Twoie questioned harshly.

"You may have proven that women are just as capable as men. But, that's a lesson they took to become even stronger," Sunny replied firmly.

"It's over, Skuld," Robin finished.

Skuld growled in frustration as she looked around at the very enemies that prepared to take her down while Sarah frowned and said to her (not knowing that there are some Frost Pony platoons already sneaking up on them to defend their mistress and creator), "Don't try anything funny if you plan on making this any harder, Skuld. You're already in a boatload's worth of trouble than you think you are."

"I think you're the ones who are in trouble," Skuld retorted coolly, seeing her grunts preparing to ambush the heroes until Kit and Ella along with Latios and Latias as well as Chien-Pao took them down effortlessly and dwindled her forces with her back down to just her.

"Lady, you're no longer full of surprises anymore," Robin snorted, unimpressed as he gave the call to everyone to attack. "Titans, heroes, go!"

"WHOOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!" Tuffnut hollered excitedly as he and Ruffnut (with Barf and Belch flying alongside them) raced through the forest on their Zippleback Rusher as some Frost Ponies trailed them from behind, firing Ice Pulse attacks to try and slow them down and capture them.

Like the other Viking Teens, Stoick, and Gobber, since they were still new to driving their new Draconic Racers, as they were being attacked, the computers built into their vehicles detailed what they should do regarding their attackers. In the case of the Zippleback Rusher, the computers on both vehicles that made up the entire runner sensed the continued assault and gave Tuffnut and Ruffnut the best-case scenario option on how they, Barf, and Belch should deal with their pursuers which is a word called "Split" that is demonstrated via a quick video tutorial that showed them how to split their runner and it proved useful as their radars also picked up an incoming cliff.

"Split!" they shouted with a smirk, pressing a button on each of their runners that allowed them to split their runner into two vehicles before hitting the gas towards the cliff while their two-headed dragon followed after to keep pace.

The Frost Ponies, oblivious to their plan, snarled and galloped faster to try and keep up with them as they drew closer and closer to the cliff. Suddenly, without warning, Barf and Belch pulled up and the twins shouted while pressing another button via a video tutorial on their runner's computers, "Cables, shoot and lock!"

The hatches on their runners (from both sides of each of them) opened and from both of them, shot two pairs of cables that immediately latched onto some nearby trees from behind as they jumped off the cliff and were yanked safely back just as the Frost Ponies jumped after to attack them. But, as they were pulled back by their cables, the Frost Ponies were dumbfounded by this and the mocking waves and smiles left by the twins and Barf and Belch until they looked down and yelped in horror at their mistake. Once one of them realized that this is the end for them and broke the 4th Wall by giving a fearful wave goodbye to the readers and the audience, the Frost Ponies screamed as they dropped down to the ocean (one of them even letting out the all-famous Goofy Holler as it fell).

"Alright/Yeah!" the twins cheered as they drove alongside each other and banged their helmets together victoriously before they noticed another Frost Pony platoon coming to attack them which only prompted them to smirk again.

"You thinkin' what I'm thinkin'?"

"Yeah, bring it on, brother!"

"Activate, Metal Wing!" they bantered, now holding two copies of the Move Card, Metal Wing.

And then, after Barf and Belch charged up their new armor with Steel Energy and gave off a pair of proud roars, they summoned a flock of six Pteranodons that divebombed on the Frost Ponies and sliced them with their steel wings. The oncoming platoon of Frost Ponies had no response to this sudden assault and they were soon shish-kabobed before they melted back into puddles before them, the Pteranodons vanishing after they've completed their work.

"Boo-yah, Bro! I love this new armor!”

"Yeah, this is the happiest moment of our lives!" the two-headed dragon roared excitedly.

But, while Barf and Belch and the twins were enjoying themselves with their new gear and power-ups, Snotlout and Hookfang were now screaming their heads off as the former drove his runner and the latter flew after him while they were attacked with Fishlegs and Meatlugs. The two of them and their dragons have taken their taunts towards the Frost Ponies a little too far and are now frantically trying to escape their pursuers tailing them (much to the growing amusement of the audience as they howled with laughter) just as Astrid and Stormfly flew overhead for the former to yell a piece of advice or something to them.

"What'll I do, girlfriend?! How do we shake these suckers off? How do you work this thing!?" Snotlout frantically screamed.

"Got any ideas up there, Astrid?!" Fishlegs begged, wanting answers on how to stop the Frost Ponies from chasing them.

"Simple, you meatheads! Your runners are a firetruck and a hovercraft, figure it out!" Astrid snapped before she made a U-turn and fired her Naddler Tornado's smokescreen pellets to blind them.

The Frost Ponies were stunted and disorientated by the surprise assault by the Viking tomboy and tried to get around to find their prey, only to trip over each other seconds later as it was revealed that Fishlegs had a buoy rope set up like a trick wire to knock them off their hooves.

"Sorry, sorry!" Fishlegs replied as Meatlugs just laughed.

"Hope you like having a snow day being actual snowballs, Viking style! Eat Hydro Launcher, suckas!" Snotlout sneered with a devilish smirk, activating his Hydro Launcher via a video tutorial for him (as was the case with Fishlegs for his buoy rope from his runner's computer) as a large water cannon infused with Animus Magic was brought up from the middle of his truck and it shot large water balls at them that turned them into snowballs.

But, he wasn't done yet as he pulled out a Move Card for Snotlout and held it up as he said, "Let's go, Hooky! Fire your Magma Blaster!"

"Yeah, rock on, baby! Burn, baby, burn! HA-HAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!" hollered Hookfang with a big yet cheeky smile as he blasted the Frost Ponies with a Magma Blaster attack, the powerful flames making their way towards them and turning them into a giant puddle of water. "YEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Back to Fishlegs and Meatlugs; the brainiac Viking learned to use his Gronckle Hover's extendable claws to take a swipe at and whack away at the Frost Ponies coming at him and his dragon but not without giving an apology to each of them on account of his kindness (given the fact that he had gained a much stronger sense of respect for all living creatures, especially dragons given his close friendship and bond with Meatlugs).

"U-uh, o-okay, Meatlugs! U-Use, uh, Sand Trap!" Fishlegs called (despite his apprehension of having to fight the Frost Ponies on such a scale) as he brought forth a Move Card for Meatlugs, allowing her to activate her armor and use Sand Trap to ensnare and trap the Frost Ponies after them with quicksand (via a similar method to the move used by Pokemon known as Sand Tomb).

Going back to Astrid and Stormfly, the former was now expertly flying over the battlefield on her Naddler Tornado and had learned to fire the explosive arrows that came with her vehicle, hollering excitedly as she made direct hits on the Frost Ponies, "WHOO! Yeah, this thing rocks! YES!"

"Let's see you take on my Biting Wind," Stormfly mocked at the Frost Ponies as she fired blades of Wind Energy at the Frost Ponies and she made direct hits as the grunts froze in shock and horror when they were struck hard and she gave a sly wink as she said (seconds before they were turned back into puddles), "See ya later!"

Henna and Edgar were having a little difficulty trying to get used to their new runners but with their computers helping to guide them as they drove along, trying to avoid five Frost Ponies tailing them as well, they were starting to get the hang of it. Case in point - the radars on their runners' computers had picked up a nearby large pine tree coming their way as they were going along before the computers offered them a suggestion for them to begin dealing with their pursuers as they said "Suction Tires".

"If that's what you want, our new-fangled friends! Activate, Suction Tires!"

"Right behind you, dear!" the two concurred, following the video tutorials and pressing a button that changed their runners' original tires to those fitted with suction cups along the surface as they drove towards the tree and started climbing up on it before they eventually veered off and turned around to face the Frost Ponies up front on the way down (their runners' computers now detailing the second step on their assault as it displayed "Explosive Arrows").

"Begone, icy demons!"

"Fire, Explosive Arrows!" they finished, pressing another button and firing a barrage of arrow bombs from the open hatches and newly-emerged launchers that blew up the Frost Ponies after they made contact with them and turned them into a giant puddle.

With Stoick and Gobber, through the video tutorials on their runners' computers as well, they started to get the hang of driving their new vehicles, too. In fact, Stoick was bowling over the Frost Ponies coming after him while Gobber was piling his own platoon for a surprise he had for them while they were duking it out.

"Gobber, this is incredible! I feel like a young Viking again driving this thing with the help of this new-fangled computer!"

"Me, too! The lass and her family and friends are remarkable with this technology stuff!" the pair smiled brightly as Gobber then pressed a red button on his runner's panel as his Hotburple Sparkler transformed the Frost Ponies he's collected into scrap metal with its Animus Magic.

Skuld was obviously having her hooves full against Sarah and Race's secret dinosaurs as they all proved to be a formidable fighting force, each of them having a battle style unique only to them that made them somewhat unpredictable for her to counter.

The Deinonychus Sextet, with their immense intelligence, are ninjas (the prehistoric epitome of deadly stealth) in their own right as they were expertly coordinated in their attacks and their teamwork, striking at her one by one thanks to their smaller bulk that allowed for superior maneuverability and agility, proving this by also pulling off what is known as a Spinning Attack (a ball move in which they jump in the air and curl themselves into spinning, glowing balls against their foes). With their best team attack, they pummeled Skuld as the Nightmare Alicorn was sent flying from the hits until she regained her footing and skidded on her hooves to maintain her balance.

When Elvis and Ellie tagged themselves in, they used Blizzard Smash to blast a flurry of ice and snow at the Nightmare Alicorn but she countered the pair team attack with her magic as her dark flames melted the attack. It turned out to be a feint, however, as Megalo and Rufus ganged up on her now and unleashed their own pair team attack called Gigantic Fall, using telekinesis to pick up rocks of all sizes and throw them at her. Skuld gasped in bewilderment as she saw the rocks being thrown and jumped into the air to avoid them while using her magic to bounce them back but some of the rocks managed to hit her despite her best efforts.

Finally, it was Slasher and Thayer's turn as they both roared and activated their pair team attack, Gyro Claw, spinning with great force and holding out their claws as they charged with gyro energy. They had become life-size prehistoric spinning gyro tops with this move and moving at unparalleled speed, they made contact with Skuld as they slashed at her. They knocked her hard and she was thrown back, allowing Cyborg to appear and shoulder ram her with a battle cry toward Robin and their friends as the Teen Titans surrounded her to attack (with Demon Wolf Raven joining to give them a hand).

Skuld fired two dark magic blasts at Cyborg and Teen Titan Raven but they both dodged and the latter grabbed a blast with her own magic and hurled it back at her, getting her on the defensive while the bionic Teen Titan fired at her with his sonic cannon, Starfire bolting forward to fire her star bolts at the Nightmare Alicorn and knock her down.

But, Skuld wasn't done yet as she landed on her hooves and fought against Beast Boy (who had turned into a male lion) as he pounced on her and gave her claw marks as he slashed at her before she flung him off and blasted him. She then noticed Raven and Twoie coming at her from the sky but she took to the air to square off against the pair only to be caught in the ropes of two grappling hooks that were fired by Robin, the boy wonder yanking her back hard to the ground face first.

He then rushed at her until he was caught in her magical grip and then bucked back but this allowed Starfire to blindsight Skuld with her star bolts as she fired bolt after bolt from her hands without mercy while the Nightmare Alicorn blocked and deflected each one, eventually bringing her down to her knees. She wasn't given time to breathe, though, as Cyborg rushed at her again and threw a hard punch that only struck the ground she stood on as she got out of the way but was unable to counter him as he blasted her at her gut with a blast from his sonic cannon.

Skuld was on her back after the blast she was given until she spotted a large shadow cast upon her, gasping in surprise to see what looked like a large cart dropped on her by Twoie and she darted out of the way before she could be crushed as Hiccup, Toothless, Stryka, and Zenna drove in and got out of their runners to face the Nightmare Alicorn themselves now.

"Okay, this is it...... Ready, Zenna?"

"Your move, Fly Boy," Hiccup and Zenna bantered against as they held two copies of a Move Card made for Toothless and Stykra from Sarah up high. "Toothless/Go, Stryka! Electric Charge!"

Activating Electric Charge, the former Viking underdogs watched as a cloud of lightning appeared above their Night Furies, a bolt of lightning striking them as the voltage from the bolt increased their power. Skuld turned to face the supercharged Strike Class dragons and wordlessly created two Frost Ponies standing 6" tall to fight in her place against them but it proved to be futile as Toothless and Stryka roared and charged at them with a supercharged tackle before they blasted them with two balls of purple electricity that sent them flying into the ocean (immediately melting once they touched the water with a big splash).

"No way!"

"Cool........"

Skuld seethed quietly from this but she soon smirked as she vanished into the shadows, tapping into her dark magic once more and forcing Beast Boy and Cyborg to stop when they tried to pounce on her again. The two of them looked around as they realized she had disappeared until she reappeared and slinked up behind them from their own shadows, gently tapping them before they turned, and then she gave off a small "Boo", making them yelp (or yowl, in Beast Boy's case) in fright and allowing her to buck them back hard.

Skuld cackled from finally getting the drop on Beast Boy and Cyborg but she stopped as Twoie, Raven, Luna, and Sarah emerged to face her as they surrounded her in a cross formation, covering all sides should she escape.

That's when Snotlout and the others regrouped as they had managed to leave Skuld as the only one left standing, her Frost Ponies all but toast as there were no more left to defend her.

"Give it up, Snowcone Head!"

"You got nowhere to go now that your servants are history!" the twins sneered cheekily.

"Yeah, did you really think your bodyguards are so intelligent to get the drop on us when we made our move after coming back to surprise you?"

"Your boys are no different from the lesser grunts we've faced including those robotic clones of such footsoldiers like the Copotros, Dorodoros, Jinmers, Wulars, and Putties from Team Eclipse!" Stormfly and Meatlugs snorted with proud glares thrown at the Nightmare Alicorn.

"What did you say?" gasped Skuld in shock.

"Your babies have all been melted back into their natural form of water once we've pulled them out of your home base so now, instead of falling back on them to take us down, you've got us to worry about now," Race informed as Robbie and Bella prepared to attack.

"Urgh, those imbecilic walking snowballs!" Skuld scowled in realization.

"There's no point trying to deny the fact that you're on the losing end, our friend," remarked Terrakion.

"Hands where we can see them, now.”

"Stay right where you are, too!"

"Don't do anything stupid or this moment will be your last, ya hear?" Kyoga, Kitsune, and Anga demanded.

"Sorry, you don't call the shots!" Skuld snorted as she attacked again but with a shadow whip, forcing the heroes to dodge and forcing Thunder, Shadow, and Race's Aurequine to fire Moonblast and plasma shots to subdue her, only for their attacks to be deflected.

Thunderailer, Robbie, and Raksha fired Ancient Power, Electro Ball, and Shadow Ball at Skuld this time but she also managed to deflect them as she scowled again, "You won't take me!"

"Wrong again!” Blitz snapped back at her, immediately snapping his fingers and signaling Sarah and Race to make the heroes' next move.

"Rainbow/Now, Gravel! Laser Ray!" the pair shouted to the Pachycephalosaur pair, bringing out two Move Cards and activating their shared signature move.

Rainbow and Gravel roared as they moved in front of Luna, Twoie, and Raven to do a tag team attack, their foreheads generating an immense amount of rainbow light that shone across Berk, the Nightmare Alicorn howling in pain and fright as she was blinded by it and was left open to an attack from them.

"DAAAHH!!!!!! MY EYES, THEY'RE BURNING! BAD LIGHT, BAD LIGHT, I CAN'T STAAAAAANNNNDDDAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!"

"NOW!" Hiccup called, allowing Raven, Twoie, and Luna to conjure up shadow whips of their own and restrain Skuld as she then tried to break herself free but to no avail.

This was also the signal for Sarah, Race, and the Mane 5 to finish things off as they nodded and came together for one final attack. Drawing the power of their love for and friendship with one another, the seven of them were able to tap into the Equestrian magic buried deep within them, their Cutie Marks glowing brightly in response to their power which was helped when the Rainbow Lantern transferred a portion of its own energy to them to give them a power boost. Their Elements reemerged before them and a rainbow sphere enclosed around them as they then started to hover in the air to unleash their final attack.

Skuld soon faintly saw what the little princess, the former Battle Frontier Champion, and Sunny and her friends are doing as she gasped, "N-No, wait! W-What are you doing?!"

"Using a power the likes of you will never understand, the magic that binds us all together as an unbreakable bond shared across dimensions and worlds: the Magic of Friendship!" Sunny declared with a smirk, transforming into her Alicorn form and opening her eyes as they turned white before they unleashed what is called the Rainbow of Light just as Rainbow and Gravel unleashed their Laser Ray at full power just as the two attacks converged into one powerful blast.

Together, the two attacks amplified the Rainbow of Light's power and concentrate it into a more powerful beam that struck Skuld and engulfed her (making her let out one final pained scream as it touched her), thus removing all of the dark magic from her and making her vanish and causing the red moon to disappear and the sun to reemerge. The sight of the sun and the heroes' victory caused the entire audience to erupt into a chorus of cheers, applause, and ecstatic whistles as the climax of the play came to its conclusion, the Elements' new bearers touching down after they completed their role.

"Yes!"

"We did it!"

"Alright!" Izzy, Pipp, and Zipp cheered as Sarah and Race turned back into their human forms while turning their dinosaurs back into both their original card and Chibi forms after thanking them for their part in Hiccup and Zenna's plan.

"BOO-YAH!"

"Sick, dudes! You vaporized that witch to no tomorrow!"

"Yeah, nice work."

"Sarah, Race, Sunny, friends, you have won!"

"Great job taking Skuld down with the Rainbow of Light and that Laser Ray, you guys," the Teen Titans cheered.

"No, we won," Sarah smiled humbly.

"Way to knock 'em dead, Hiccup," Astrid smirked at Hiccup, giving him a congratulatory punch on his shoulder and making him blush as he got a bashful smile on his face and blushed from her praise.

"Very exquisite plan you guys cooked up back there, Zenna," added Fishlegs, smiling at Zenna.

"Hey, had to come up with something to get Skuld off our backs and pull the rug from under her. Glad to see that it worked out perfectly," Zenna remarked with a chuckle.

"We're all proud of ya, Son, lass," Stoick smiled proudly.

"Aye, you truly stepped up to the Viking plate and now, we all have our home back thanks to you two," Gobber agreed warmly as the other Viking Teens and the dragons cheered and warbled excitedly.

"Gee, thanks, guys," Hiccup replied bashfully, he and Zenna getting knowing and happy licks and nuzzles from Stryka and Toothless.

"Hey, what happened to Skuld after she was hit by the Rainbow of Light and that Laser Ray?" Mallow questioned.

"You're right, where is she?" Lana concurred.

"Yeah, whatever happened to Tall, Dark, and Creepy after you zapped her?" Snotlout puzzled in agreement.

"Mama......."

The heroes soon had their answer as they heard a small chirp coming from behind them and they wheeled back around to find what looked like a small SkyWing/SeaWing hybrid dragon before them; it looked to be a baby that had deep-light purple scales with black claws, dark rich burgundy membranes, and a cluster of white spots covering him from head to toe.

"What is this?" gasped Sunny in surprise.

"I'm not sure but it looks like the combined powers of the Rainbow of Light and Rainbow and Gravel's Laser Ray not only stripped Skuld of all of her black magic, they've also turned her into a dragon," Luna theorized as she looked the baby dragon all over.

"You're right. Only Skuld is now a male baby dragon just like Sparky but I don't know why he now has all those spots on him," Hitch replied, looking over the spots the baby dragon has all over him.

"I think I know; that baby's Piebald Scale Mutation and he's absolutely harmless. Judging by his looks, he's a hybrid of a SeaWing and a SkyWing so he's adept to both the air and sea with his newfound water and wind abilities," Sarah replied, looking over the baby dragon as well as he cooed at her and Hitch. "Sol and his fellow spirits had been training me in using the full extent of my new Animus Magic so I'm not as powerful as Athi but I might be after I had more training.

"So, with your new magic along with the Rainbow of Light and that Laser Ray from Rainbow and Gravel, you were able to turn a demon alicorn into a harmless baby dragon who's as cute as a button and a totally clean slate?" Beast Boy clarified in layman's terms.

"I think that's a rough translation," Teen Titan Raven remarked.

"Oh, he's so cute!" Starfire gushed at the baby dragon.

"I never knew I could feel being fuzzy for something now as cute and scaley as that baby dragon," Teen Titan Raven muttered in bewilderment as Starfire picked the baby up and tickled him, getting happy giggles and chirps from him.

"Hmm, now that he's no longer a magic ball of destruction, we can have him join us as another pet and give Silky some company," Cyborg remarked, starting to warm up to the baby dragon.

Teen Titan Raven just chagrined, "Don't even think about it."

"Well, anyway, no matter what we do with him, what are we gonna call him?" Robin pointed out.

Sarah smiled and simply said, "Aster."

"Oh, no......"

"200 more on your end, pipsqueak?" grumbled Silvally and Eternatus, making the audience laugh again.

"And, what about the talisman from the Thunderhead Bay Tribe?" Zacian pondered curiously.

"I think I know what happened to it, Zash, look!" Zamazenta replied in surprise, pointing everyone and his brother towards a baby NightWing that stood where the talisman once was, being black all over and having a dark blue coloration along its underbelly, neck, over around its eyes, and horns with its wing membranes resembling the night sky that had star-like sparkles on them.

"Little Bird, you didn't just use your Animus Magic to turn that charm instrumental to Skuld's power into that baby dragon, did you?" balked Zacian in disbelief.

"Yeah, I had to do something to get rid of it so I used it to create this little guy. Everybody, I'd like you to meet your new little brother/nephew/cousin, Warner," Sarah introduced, going to the baby NightWing, Warner, and picking him up as he giggled and chirped happily.

"Mama," Warner and Aster chirped, looking towards Sarah as the latter gently wiggled out of Starfire's hands and waddled up to the princess as she picked him up as well.

"Not to poke at you or anything, Sarah, but don't you already have enough babies in your family making you run amok?" Fishlegs questioned, eyeing both Warner and Aster carefully.

"Where's the fun in having normally quiet babies to look after in the family, Fishlegs, and where's your sense of adventure with guys like these? Besides, it's like they always say, 'there's room for many a more'."

"Oh, great," Eternatus pouted in annoyance.

"Well, as long as they don't make a mess in the kitchen looking for a snack, I suppose it won't hurt to have them around, Princess," Newt replied.

"Whatever happens, we'll let you do what you want. You are the Dragon Princess, after all," Stoick noted knowingly.

"Yeah! And, you know what that means-!" Izzy began.

"NO MORE SINGING, PLEASE!" begged Zipp frantically, only for Izzy to declare, "CURTAIN CALL!"

"And, they all lived happily ever after," Discord finished as the heroes gave out celebratory cheers for their victory as the curtains closed to end the play, the audience cheering and applauding loudly as they all gave a standing ovation to the group as they reappeared and took their bows along with Discord, Queen Thorn, and her subjects for their show.

"Well done, Race!"

"That's my brother!"

"Bravo, my son, bravo!"

"We love you, Kiawe!"

"Nice going, Ash!"

"You rock, Mallow!"

"Way to break a leg, baby girl!"

"I'm so proud of our daughter!"

"Thank you! Thank you all so much!" the Pokemon School gang and Ash replied happily to the crowd.

"Thank you all so much for joining us here for our show and we hope you enjoy the rest of your days here in the Alola Region! Goodbye, everybody!" finished Sarah as the cheers and applause kept on coming as the group took their bows once more.

Well, well, looks like our heroes' first-ever play was a huge success! It may have gotten crazy for everyone but all's well that ends well and a good play is a good play........as their magical adventures continue
