Chapter 1: Lava and Jade’s nightmare about Opaline returning
At the Isle of Scaly, during the dragons’ sleep, Lava and Jade are having a dream about being turned back to normal after being manipulated by Opaline to cause a magical crisis in Equestria, but all Lava and Jade can do right now is get some sleep and pretend none of this ever happened.
Inside Lava and Jade’s dream, Opaline is seen spying on the dragons, looking for Lava and Jade, to use them for her evil plans.
Blaize looked up at Opaline. “Hey, who are you, and what are you doing here?” She asked.
“You can call me, Opaline Arcana, and I want to take two of your pathetic friends and use them for my evil plans. Once I have them, Equestria will be all mine.” The evil alicorn said as she laughed evilly.
“You’re not harming any of us, not today.” said Tumble.
Opaline used her magic to blast the dragons, but the dragons ran away to prevent from getting caught. That’s when Lava and Jade use their dragonfire to try and attack Opaline in return, but Opaline used her magic again to knock out the dragons, except Lava and Jade, who were taken by the evil alicorn.
“LAVA! JADE! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!” The dragons cried out.
“I’ll take your pathetic little friends with me, and there’s nothing you can do to stop me now.” Opaline said, laughing evilly again.
“NO!!!” Lava and Jade screamed in horror as they woke up.
“What was that, Lava?” Jade asked.
“I don’t know.” Lava replied. “It sounds like we just had a nightmare about the evil alicorn coming back.”
“A NIGHTMARE??? NO!!!” Jade said in fear. “You know what that means right?”
“YOUR SPIKENESS??? EVERYDRAGON??? SPARKY??? PONIES??? WHERE ARE YOU???” Lava and Jade screamed in horror.
“Oh no. Lava and Jade.” Blaize said. “We have to talk to them.”
“What if they’re in trouble again, or worse?” Luxxe asked.
“It can’t be because of the evil alicorn this time.” Fountain said.
“What if it’s something else?” Leaf asked. “After all, they woke us up with their screaming.”
“Come on dragons, that alicorn is gone.” Tumble said. “I’m pretty sure they’re doing just fine. Just a little nightmare.”
“Don’t jinx it, Tumble.” Leaf responded.
“Oh, oops.” Tumble replied.
“Dragons.” Lava and Jade said as they approached their friends.
“Lava, Jade. What happened? What’s going on?” said Blaize in worry.
“Yeah, your screaming has us woken up in the middle of the night last night.” Luxxe said.
“Luxxe’s right.” Fountain said. “You really didn’t need to do that. Besides, you probably woke up not only us dragons, but the ponies with your loudness.”
Then, the Mane 6 and Sparky arrived on the Marestream. “We heard everything coming from Maretime Bay, no wonder why I was getting so many complaints from ponies last night and even this morning. I mean, just look at Sparky.” Hitch responded with a traumatized Sparky on his hooves.
“We want answers, now.” Zipp said in anger. “Why did you wake all of us up last night? Was something bothering you?”
“Oh, it was bad.” Lava said. “Me and Jade had a very bad nightmare last night.”
“Is it about Opaline this time?” Sunny asked. “I’m sure that there’s nothing to worry about.”
“Yeah, Opaline is gone.” Pipp said.
“What Lava is trying to say is that it was very bad.” Jade said in panic. “We were dreaming about the time Opaline dragon-napped us. It started when we were in the middle of the dragon hibernation.”
“Then, Opaline challenged us to a tough battle.” Lava continued. “After that, she knocked our friends out, and she took the two of us to her castle.”
“Then she casted a spell on us, and she made us do her evil plans.” Jade finished the story.
“You are just like me.” Misty said. “I too was being told by Opaline about what to do. She made me dragon-nap Sparky so that she could get most of his dragonfire, but luckily, my friends were there to protect me the whole way through. You can be the same. Your friends will be here to protect you the whole way through, just like me.”
“The Misty pony is right.” Luxxe said. “We, as your friends will be here to protect you no matter what.”
“Luxxe is right, and we ponies and Sparky will always be here for you.” Izzy said.
“Hoof to heart.” The Mane 6 said.
“They’re right.” Spike said. “As the leader of the dragons, I will be here for you as well.”

“Thanks your Spikeness. Thanks everypony.” Lava and Jade said.
Just then, Allura and Twitch arrive in the Isle of Scaly. “Ugh, what is taking so long? First, we can’t find the Nova Charm and now we’re stuck here in this weird island. I think this place is where the dragons live. Come on Twitch, we have to find the Nova Charm, or else we’re stuck in Equestria and here forever.” The evil snow leopard said while the bunny squeaked at her.
The Mane 6 and the dragons heard a purring noise. “Did you hear that?” Sunny said.
“It’s Allura. What do we do?” Misty asked.
“We can’t leave the dragons behind. We want them to meet her.” Hitch said.
“You heard Hitch. Dragons, come with me. We’re going to meet this Allura.” Spike said.
“Um, your Spikeness? Who’s Allura?” Blaize asked.
“I don’t know.” Spike said.
“She’s an evil snow leopard that has a little bunny sidekick named Twitch.” Zipp said.
“She’s the one that hypnotized all the Auroricorns in Starlight Ridge.” Hitch said.
“You dragons better be careful with Allura.” Misty said. “She’s very powerful.”
“Watch out dragons!” Izzy, Sunny, and Pipp said at the same time.
“We will.” Spike said.
Chapter 2: Dragons meet, battle and defeat Allura
“So you are Allura? The ponies told me about you.” Spike said.
“Who in Equestria are you dragons?” Allura said.
“I’m Spike.” The Dragon Lord said. “And this is Luxxe, Leaf, Lava, Jade, Blaize, Fountain, and Tumble.”
“You sound like a real bully. You know that?” Luxxe said, reprimanding Allura.
“Yeah. Why did you do that in the first place?” Lava asked.
“I wanted to stay as leader of Starlight Ridge forever, but no. I got blasted by the snow and not to mention that stupid pony named Violet Frost stole my place as leader, so now I’m stuck in Equestria and if I don’t get the Nova Charm back, Twitch and I will be here forever.” Allura said.
“You are starting to remind us of Opaline.” Jade said. “That evil alicorn that casted a spell on me and Lava.”
“And the way you screamed has caught my attention as the best thing I’ve ever heard.” Allura said, then she laughed evilly.
“Hey, knock it off.” Tumble reprimanded.
“Tumble’s right. You are really starting to sound like a real bully right now.” Fountain said.
“And that Violet Frost pony deserves to take your place as leader of Starlight Ridge.” Blaize said.
“Quiet! I have a song for you.” Allura said.
Find My Way Right Back
Allura
You say: I'm a monster
You say: I'm a bully
If that's how you paint me
Well, you never knew me
Spend my life on the outside lookin' in
Can't remember what it feels like (feels like)
Now, I must begin all over again
Another place that never fit right
I would have done it all so differently (and I don't)
Say I'm a bully, you can make believe (if you want it)
Now, everypony thinks the worst of me (worst of me)
Oh, well
They won't stop 'til they make a monster out of me
They got their minds made up, but they just can't see
'Cause all I really wanna do is find my way back to you
Always find my way right back to you
Always find my way right back to you
Find my way right back to you (ha, ha)
Always find my way right back to you (ha, ha)
You, ooh-ooh-ooh (ha, ha)
All my life then bouncing place to place
Never welcomed, always chased away ('way)
Always made to wander near the edge
In the distance I'm afraid
I would have done it all so differently (and I don't)
Say I'm a bully, you can make believe (if you want it)
Now, everypony thinks the worst of me (worst of me)
Oh, well
They won't stop 'til they make a monster out of me
They got their minds made up, but they just can't see
'Cause all I really wanna do is find my way back to you
Always find my way right back to you
Always find my way right back to you
Find my way right back to you (ha, ha)
Always find my way right back to you (ha, ha)
You, ooh-ooh-ooh (ha, ha)
You say: I'm a monster
You say: I'm a bully
If that's how you paint me
Well, you never knew me
“Now, what do you think of my song? Is it sure to teach you a really important lesson here? Huh?” Allura said.
“ENOUGH!” Spike said. ‘Now you’re going to get it now. Dragons, follow my lead.”
Together, the dragons fought Allura one by one, but Allura dodges each shot given by each dragon. Then, all of the dragons combine their magic to defeat Allura together.
“Whoa!” Zipp said. “I think the dragons defeated Allura.”
“Ugh, you may have won this time but I’LL BE BACK SOON!!!” Allura scolded. “C’mon Twitch. Let’s get outta here.”
“You did it, dragons.” Sunny said.
The rest of the Mane 6 and Sparky congratulate their dragon friends for defeating Allura.
“See, I told you that we would teach her a lesson.” Spike said.
“Allura may be gone for now but we’ll face her again soon.” Tumble said.
“Tumble’s right.” Leaf said. “And Lava and Jade confronted their past just like that Misty pony.”
“If Allura comes back, we’ll be ready.” Zipp said. “I'm a princess of a different kind. Always trying to figure out why. When my cutie mark comes to life, I blast bravely across the sky!”
“I sparkle like the stars, 'cause I'm always super glittery. When my cutie mark comes to life, watch this brilliant creativity!” Izzy said.
“I'm a stylish pop star princess. My voice makes me strong. When my cutie mark comes to life, confidence is my song!” Pipp said in excitement.
“I might seem a little quiet, but my strength is very real. When my cutie mark comes to life, my heart helps me feel!” Misty said happily.
“I'm the pony of the law. Coolest dragon dad you know. My cutie mark comes to life, and my kindness overflows!” Hitch said, carrying Sparky on his back excitedly.
“I am all three pony kinds wrapped up into one. My cutie mark comes to life with hope bright at the sun!” Sunny said, while turning into an alicorn in the process.
“It's true. Allura was here the Isle of Scaly, and that was a little bit scary. But I promise there is nothing to fear as long as we stick together.” Zipp said while rallying her friends, pony and dragon.
