Chapter3: Amusement park of terror

In the dark castle located in the netherworld, general crypto can be seen in one of the castle rooms, looking up at the large diamond sphere that was hung on top of the celling.

“Even though our last two monsters were defeated by the user of the elements of harmony, they were at least successful enough to gather enough life energy needed to create a new monster for me to send to the earth realm.” Crypto said as he used his magic to make a small clay doll appear in his hand. He then placed the doll under the sphere, and after walking a short distance away from the sphere, he fired a magical beam at the sphere. Immediately after he fired at the sphere, it glowed a bright blue color, and shortly afterward, it fired an energy beam at the doll. After the beam hits the doll, a blue light covers it, and it grows bigger.

“Rise fear master; rise and serve the master.” Crypto said.
….
In Canterlot City, two people are seen standing at a bus stop. These two people were rainbow dash and next to her was a young girl who seemed to be around ten. The girl has purple hair, and her attire is comprised of a close black hooded jacket, green short pants, blue socks, and black shoes.

“What is taking them so long?” The girl said as she checked her watch.

“I know how you feel, scoots.” Rainbow Dash said to the girl.” I mean seriously we all agree to be here before one o clock since that is the time the bus arrived and it’s 12: 55. Seriously where are their already.”

“Well, excuse us for not living near to our agreed location.” A voice said, and the two girls turned to see rarity, Applejack, Sunset, Twilight, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applebloom, Sweetie Bell, and Spike walking towards them.

“I take it; that’s your little sister, Scootoolo." Twilight said as she noticed the little girl standing next to rainbow dash.

“Yes, she is.” Rainbow dash said before turning her attention to Scootoolo. ”Scootoolo, this is Twilight Sparkle and her little brother's spike.”

“Hello Scootoolo.” Twilight said, greeting the little girl.

“What’s up?” Spike said.

“Hi spike, hi twilight.” Scootoolo said, greeting the two.

“ Anyhow.” Rainbow Dash said, gaining everyone's attention. ”What took you guys so long? The bus is almost here.”

“Well, excuse us, darling, but as I said earlier, not all of us live near our agreed location.” Rarity said.

"Besides, there was still time left.” Twilight said. After saying that, the group stood next to the bus stop until the bus arrived. After the bus arrived, the group got in and took their seats as the bus drove off to their destination. Their destination was the amusement park Equestrialand.As Twilight sat in her seat she couldn’t help but think back on what had happened so far.

It’s been two weeks since rainbow dash and rarity became users of the elements of harmony, and during those two weeks, she, rainbow dash, and rarity have been making great progress in their training. After making great progress in their training, both Celestia and Luna decided to give them a few days off from training, as they believe that as much as it is important for them to train, it is also important for them to take breaks from training so they will not be overstressed. It was during their first day off from training that Pinkie Pie brought up the topic of going to Equestrialand.

Twilight can’t help but think back on that conversation.

Flashback:
School was over for the day and twilight was about to head home when pinkie pie stopped her to invite her to sugar cube corners, and seeing that she didn’t have any reason not to, she agreed to follow her and the rest to sugar cube corners, and this is where we now find twilight, sunset, pinkie, rarity, rainbow dash, fluttershy, and applejack. All seven were currently eating and drinking their food on one of the available tables in the bakery. As Twilight drank her milkshake, she took a look around in the bakery and saw that many of the customers were students from Canterlot High, as she recognized some of them were from her class, and while she didn’t recognize the other students, she could easily tell they were from Canterlot High as they were still wearing the school uniform.

She recalls Pinkie Pie telling her early that the students from Canterlot High would frequently stop by sugar cube corners as soon as school was over. According to her, one of the reasons for this was because the bakery was located not too far from school, and the second reason was because the food and drink that were sold by the bakery were incredibly good. It was for these two very reasons that many of the students of Canterlot High would frequently hang out in the bakery after school, and after trying the food and drink herself, Twilight agreed that the food and drink were incredibly good. As she sipped her milkshake, Pinkie Pie suddenly spoke, gaining everyone's attention.

"So, does anyone have plans for tomorrow?” Pinkie Pie, ask everyone.

“Not currently, right now,” Rarity said.

“I am free tomorrow,” Applejack said.

“Me too.” Fluttershy said in a soft voice.

“That goes double for me too.” Rainbow Dash said.

“Me too,” Sunset said.

“What about you, Twilight?" Pinkie pie, ask.

“I am also free tomorrow.” Twilight said. ”Why are you asking anywhere?”

“Oh, it is because I got this.” Pinkie Pie said as she put one of her hands inside her shirt and pulled out a bunch of tickets. ”Tickets to Equestraland.”

Hearing that caused everyone but Twilight to look on happily.

“ Equestrialand “Sunset said happily.

“Uh huh.” Pinkie said. ”I got enough for everyone, and not only for us but also for Applebloom, Sweetie Bell, Scootoolo, and Spike.”

“ Scootoolo.” Twilight ask confused.

“Scootoolo is my little sister.” Rainbow Dash said.

“So, is everyone going?” Pinkie Pie asks, and immediately everyone but Twilight gives their answer in the form of yes or, of course. Noticing twilight lack of response, Pinkie turned her attention to her.

“Aren’t you going twilight?” Pinkie pie, ask.

“I am not sure.” Twilight said. ”What is equestrialand anywhere?”

“Equestrialand is only the city's best amusement park.” Sunset said. ”Trust me, Twilight, you should come too. It is without doubt the best place to go if you are looking for a fun time.”

“Is it really that great?” Twilight asks.

“Yes, it is.” Sunset said. ”It is one of my favorite places to go too. Come on, Twilight, please come with us.”

“Yeah, it will be more fun if all of us go together.” Pinkie added.

“I don’t know.” Twilight said unsure.

“ Please.” Pinkie said while making a puppy dog face towards Twilight. After seeing that face, Twilight was unable to refuse, so she sighed in resignation.

“All right, I come along.” Twilight said.

“ Yeah.” Pinkie cheers happily. After Pinkie was done cheering, Twilight decided to ask her the question that was suddenly on her mind.

“By the way, Pinkie, where were you keeping the tickets?” Twilight ask.

“Oh, I keep them in my bra just now.” Pinkie said. Hearing that twilight gives Pinkie a strange look.

“You kept the tickets in your bra.” Twilight asked in an uncertain tone, as if she wanted to make sure she heard Pinkie Pie right.

“Ah, huh.” Pinkie simply said. ”Not just tickets, too. I keep a lot of things in them.” Pinkie then reached into her shirt and pulled out a chocolate bar. ”Such as emergency chocolate.” She then put the chocolate back into her bra and pulled out a hundred-dollar bill. ”My emergency money and many more.” Pinkie then put the dollar back into her bra.

“Why do you put them in your bra?” Twilight asks.

“ Don’t know; the idea just came to me.” Pinkie said, shrugging her shoulders.

“What?” Twilight said.

“Don’t think too much about it, darling.” Rarity said. ”It’s just pinkie pie being pinkie pie.”

“ What.” Twilight said confused.

“It means don’t think too much about it.” Sunset said. ”Trust me when I tell you that it is in your best interest to not think too much on how pinkie mind works. Trust me, her mind is quite the enigma.”

“ Anyhow.” Rainbow Dash said brining everyone's attention to her. ”We still need to discuss when we are going and where we will be meeting tomorrow.”

“Oh, right, I almost forgot." Sunset said.

After a few minutes of discussing, everyone came to an agreement on when and where they should meet.

Flashback end:

Twilight was suddenly brought out of her thoughts when she heard someone say something to her.

“ What.” Twilight said as she turned to look at sunset who was sitting next to her. ”Sorry, what did you say just now?”

“I said, Are you excited?” Sunset said.

“Well, a little.” Twilight said. ”It’s been awhile since I went to an amusement park.”

“ Really.” Sunset said, raising an eyebrow. ”When was the last time you went to an amusement park?”

“I believe it was a year before my family and I moved to Canterlot City." Twilight said as she put a hand on her chin. ”So my guess would be two years.”

“Wow, it’s been that long, huh?" Sunset said.

“Yeah, I guess so.” Twilight said. ”What about you, sunset?”

“Oh, well, my parents and I would visit Equestrialand every year during the holidays or during summer vacation if they were free.” Sunset said. "We have done it so much that it has practically become a family tradition to visit it once a year. Of course, now that my parents are now working overseas, our frequent trips have become rare.”

“Wait, work overseas.” Twilight ask confused.

“Oh, right, I haven’t told you.” Sunset said with a look of realization. ”My parents are currently working overseas, so I am currently living by myself right now.”

“Really.” Twilight ask.

"Yeah,” Sunset said. ”But it isn’t all bad; my parents would occasionally call me through video chat if they had the time, or they would occasionally send me postcards, and of course, if they were free, they would return home for a visit, and if we were lucky to have enough time, we would go to Equestrialand and spend time together as a family.”

After that, the two stopped talking and remained quiet throughout the whole trip. However, unknown to the two girls, a figure from the back seat of the bus has been staring at them the entire time. The figure wore black pants and a green hooded jacket, with the hood covering the figure's entire head, making it difficult for one to see their face as the darkness of the hood covers their face. The figured stay silent as they watch the two girls.
….
After stopping at the bus stop, the bus door opened, and immediately everyone began making their way out of the bus.

"Finally, we are here." Rainbow Dash said happily as she and everyone got out of the bus. ”I thought we would never get here.”

“I know how you feel, Dashie,” Pinkie Pie said as she bounced happily. ”I also couldn’t stand waiting.”

As the group began making their way through the parking lot that was in front of the amusement park, they failed to notice the figure from the bus following them from behind. After reaching the front entrance of the amusement park, the group gives the ticket to the employee at the entrance before heading inside. Shortly after heading inside, the figure arrived at the entrance to the amusement park.

“Ticket, please.” The employee asked the figure, who responded by pointing an open palm towards the employee's face.

“You're going to let me in even though I don’t have a ticket.” The figure said in a female voice, revealing that the figure was a girl.

“I am going to let you in even though you don’t have a ticket.” The employee spoke in a trance-like voice as his eyes glowed blue. The figure then walks into the amusement park.
….
“All right, so which one should we try first?” Applejack asked as she and everyone walked through the amusement park.

“I want to try the bumper cars.” Spike said as he looked through the amusement park map that was grabbed early at the entrance.

“Me too; I also want to try the bumper cars.” Scootoolo said.

“I want to try the new roller coaster.” Rainbow Dash said.

“How about the Ferris wheel?” Fluttershy said softly.

“Boring.” Pinkie said. ”How about the pirate ship ride?”

“It seems many of us have rides we want to try first,” Twilight said.

“Well, it shouldn’t matter which one we want to try first because we are going to try all of them.” Sunset said happily. ”And we are going to have a good time while doing it.” After saying that, everyone nodded in agreement as they began making their way to the nearest ride, all the while the mystery figure kept her distance as she observed them.
….
(Play equestrian girls perfect day for fun.)

(Song starts.)
Oh, aw aw oh, oh, oh, aw oh uh
Oh, aw aw, oh, oh, oh

The group's first stop was the tea cup ride, and after they were done with the tea cup ride, their next stop was the bumper cars, where they bumped their vehicles towards one another and the other people who were also playing.

Looking forward to some fun
Knowing all our friends will come
'Cause we're here to spend the day.
Everybody come and play.

Rainbow Dash and Scootoolo, who were riding the same car, tried to bump Twilight, but before they could, Pinkie Pie bumped into them. After bumping the two girls away, the pink-haired girl laughs, only to be bumped by Applejack.

Let's all pick a meeting place.
And we're gonna have to race.
Everybody follow me.
This is where we're gonna be!

After the bumper car ride, the group stopped to get some food at the food stand. However, as they eat their food on one of the available tables, the figure from the bus can be seen sitting down on a table not far from them, eating a candy apple.

With my best friends, though we're different
We feel like we still belong.
And every day, it makes our friendship strong.

After eating their food, the group continues to walk through the amusement park until they stop at a high-strike game. Rainbow Dash was the first to try. After hitting it, the scale reaches halfway to the bell. Wanting to impress rarity spike was the next to try. However, the scale barely moved.

Let's go find some games to win.
Everybody's joining in.
'Cause we're having such a blast.

Applejack was next, and once she hit it, the scale moved up until it hit the bell. Everyone, besides rainbow dash and spike, clapped their hands.

Hey, did I just come in last?

The group's next stop was the rollercoaster. Everyone but Fluttershy was excited to ride the roller coaster due to her fear of heights. However, her friend Rainbow Dash refused to let her be left out, which is why she was now dragging her shy friend to the roller coaster.

Doesn't matter, win or lose.
When we always are amused
My friends stand out in a crowd.
Having fun and laughing loud!

Once they reached the front of the line for the roller coaster, the employee attending it let everyone but Spike, Sweetie Bell, Applebloom, and Scootoolo ride it as they were too short. With them not being allowed to ride the roller coaster, the four just sat down on a bench that was nearby, waiting for everyone to return.

With my best friends, we can depend
They will always follow through.
It's a perfect day for fun when I spend it with you.

After the rollercoaster was done, everyone got off. As they walked back to reunite with the rest of their group, everyone but Rainbow Dash had a smile on their faces as they enjoyed the roller coaster ride, with Fluttershy humming happily as she actually ended up enjoying the ride. However, unlike the rest of her friends, Rainbow Dash had a look of discomfort on her face and was shaking her legs.

Oh, aw aw oh, oh, oh, aw oh uh
Oh, aw aw, oh, oh, oh

The group then stopped at a photo booth to take a picture, and after taking a few more pictures in the photo booth, the group's next stop was a game booth where you were supposed to throw a ball at a stack of bottles in order to knock them down.

Taking photos with my friends
Never want this day to end.
But the time is going fast.
So come on and make it last.

They were about to walk past it, but were stopped by rarity as she saw something on the booth that caught her attention. It was a plushie of a white unicorn with a purple mane. Wanting to impress rarity spike, try to win it for her. However, all his attempts ended in failure, as he either missed or wasn’t able to knock down all the bottles.

Get the band up on the stage.
Doesn't matter what your age
Hear the music; now's your chance.
Everybody start to dance!

Applejack decided to give it a try and ended up successfully knocking down all the bottles on her first attempt. She won the unicorn plushie and gave it rarity who give her a peck on the cheek as a sign of gratitude, much to spike frustration.

With my best friends, though we're different
We feel like we still belong.
And every day, it makes our friendship strong.

The group then rides the pirate ride, and after that is done, they ride the Merry Go Round. However, as they rode the Merry Go Round, they didn’t notice the figure from the bus sitting down on a bench that was not too far from the Merry Go Round. The figure sat and watched them in silence.

With my best friends, we can depend
They will always follow through.
There's a guarantee for fun when I spend it with you.

The group was now sitting down on a Ferris wheel, enjoying the view of the amusement park.

(Song ends.)
….
“Man, today was a great day; don’t you guys agree?" Rainbow Dash asked her friends as she and everyone were walking through the amusement park.

“It really was a great day,dashie,” Pinkie said as she took a bite from her cotton candy. She then turned her attention to twilight. ”What about you, Twilight?" Did you have fun?”

“Actually, yes, I did.” Twilight said happily.

“Then are you glad that you came along?” Sunset said.

“Yes, I am.” Twilight said happily. As she and everyone continued to walk through the amusement park, she noticed a poster on a wall. On the poster was a girl who seemed to be a bit older than Twilight, probably around eighteen. The girl wore a wizard's cap and a cape, both of which were black; she also wore black gloves and a black dress with knee-high boots; and she also had light blue hair and purple eyes. The background was arrayed with fairy fire spells going off and some fireworks, and on the fronts were the words, ‘The Great and Powerful Trixie, the Greatest, Most Magnificent Entertainer of All Time!’ Twilight could easily tell that the poster was advertising some kind of magic show. However, she decided to ignore it as she wasn’t interested in seeing a magic show, especially since she had seen and used real magic. Unknown to her and everyone, however, is that shortly after walking away, the figure from the bus had walked towards the poster. She stared at it for a moment before tearing it off the wall.

“ Interesting.” The figure said as she looked at the poster. After taking one last look at the poster, she stuffs it into one of her pockets before continuing to follow Twilight and the rest of the group.
….
As the group was walking through the amusement park, they saw a huge crowd of people gathering in one place.

“What is going on over there?” Sweetie Bell asks.

“Not sure.” Sunset said. ”Let’s go check it out.” After saying that, the group headed towards the crowd of people. Once they were near, they all saw that the crowd was standing in front of a large, spooky mansion.

“That’s strange.” Twilight said as she looked at the map. ”I don’t think I see that mansion on the map.”

“It must be new.” Sunset said. ”Since this is the first time I ever see it.”

The front door of the mansion opened, and a man came walking out. The man seems to be in his early thirties, and his clothes consist of a skeleton costume and a black jacket. He was also wearing skeleton makeup, a black top hat, and long white hair that reached to the back of his neck.

“Greetings, ladies and gentlemen.” The man spoke into a microphone. ”I hope you all had a good time in equestrialand because now is the time for you all to scream in fear.”

“What does he mean time to scream in fear?” Fluttershy asks fearfully.

“Yes, you heard me right. It is time for you all to scream in fear as we have finally opened our new attraction, the nightmare mansion.” The man gestured towards the mansion. ”This mansion is without a doubt our most scariest attraction—more scary than any roller coaster, then any horror movie, and definitely more scary than any other haunted attraction you can think of. Trust me, this mansion is terrifying enough that anyone who returns from it will be a shell of their former self, and that depends on whether they live long enough to get out. Only those who are truly brave would dare to enter. Is anyone here brave enough to try? If you are, then come right in right now.” After the man finished talking, he disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

“A haunted mansion.” Pinkie Pie said excitedly before turning her attention to her friends. ”Let’s go in, guys.”

“I think I will sit this one out.” Fluttershy said softly. ”I don’t like haunted mansions.”

“That's what you said about the roller coaster early, and you ended up enjoying it.” Applejack pointed out.

“She does have a point,” Pinkie Pie said as she grabbed Fluttershy by her wrist and began dragging her to the haunted mansion. ”Come on, Fluttershy, it will be fun.”

“No, I don’t want to.” Fluttershy cries as she tries to break free, but to no avail. Applejack suddenly got behind Fluttershy and placed both hands on her shoulder.

“Calm down, Fluttershy.” Applejack said. ”Everything in the mansion is fake and harmless, and besides, we will all be going at the same time, so you won’t be alone.”

“Yeah, don’t worry, Fluttershy.” Sunset said. ”Nothing bad is going to happen.” This seems to calm the girl down, as she stops struggling.

“Promise nothing bad will happen.” Fluttershy ask.

“Promised Fluttershy.” Rarity said before she and everyone began heading into the haunted mansion. However, unknown to them, as they were heading inside the mansion, the figure from the bus stood not too far from them, watching them head inside. She stood still for a moment before following them.
….
“Wow, this place ain’t half bad.” Sunset said as she and everyone were currently walking through a dark hallway of the mansion. She turned her attention to Twilight, who, with rainbow dash, had been holding Fluttershy's hands. "What do you think of this place, Twilight?”

“I will admit the quality of this place isn’t bad.” Twilight said. ”If I didn’t know any better, I would have thought that everything in this place was real.”

“I quite agree with that.” Spike said as he was currently holding sweetie bell hands. Said girl was currently shaking in fear.

“How long more before we reach the exit?” Sweetie Bell said in fear.

“Oh, don’t be such a scary cat, sweetie Bell." Scootoolo said. ”Everything here is faked.”

“You one to talk; your legs had been shaking; none stopped.” Sweetie Bell said as she looked at Scootoolo's shaking leg.

“I am not scared,” Scootoolo quickly said. ”I am just cold.”

“ Boo.” Applebloom screamed next to Scootoolo, causing said girl to scream as she ran towards Spike and held onto his other free hand. After calming down, Scootoolo turned to Applebloom and gave her a small glare.

“Hahahah!” Applebloom laughed as Scootoolo continued to glare at her.

“Haha, very funny. I almost forget to laugh.” Scootoolo said angrily.

“Honestly, you two are overreacting.” Rarity said to her little sister and Scootoolo while still holding the unicorn plushy. ”Everything here is fake. Nothing here is real or dangerous.”

However, immediately after saying that, the painting that was on the wall next to her suddenly poked its head out of the photo frame and let out a blood-curdling scream. This caused rarity to scream as she suddenly jumped and grabbed one of applejack arms. This action caused everyone to chuckle, much to rarity embarrassment.

“Now who's overreacting?” Sweetie Bell said, chuckling.

“That was different.” Rarity said, blushing in embarrassment. ”I was just surprised that’s all.”

Twilight just let out a small chuckle. She had to admit that the effort and work that had been put into making the haunted mansion were quite amazing. She remembers the different methods and jump scares that were used to scare them. One example was when, shortly after entering the building, one of the walls opened up, and immediately a man dressed as a bloody clown, holding a chainsaw, came out and chased them before eventually stopping. Another example was when the ceiling opened up and a man dressed as a werewolf jumped off and landed in front of them. Another example was when they were walking down a hallway, the ground in front of them suddenly opened up, and out came a man in a zombie outfit. Twilight favorite one so far is when the ground beneath them opens up and they suddenly go down on a slide that leads them into a dark basement, which they have to go through in order to get to the stairs that lead back up. However, while walking, they had to endure countless jump scares from the employees who wore different monster costumes, such as vampires, zombies, Frankenstein monsters, werewolves, and so on, and all of this was just the tip of the iceberg as they had to endure countless other scares that kept popping out every minute. With everything Twilight has seen and experienced so far, she has to agree with what that man said earlier about this being their scariest attraction, since it will be a miracle for anyone to go through this mansion without receiving a heart attack. Even Twilight herself manages to get scared, and this was despite having already faced real monsters and being put into a real live-and-death situation twice.

As the group continued walking, they heard a scream coming from one of the doors down the hallway.

“What was that.”Fluttershy asks in a scared voice.

“It’s probably nothing.” Rainbow Dash said. ”It’s probably another person being jump scared.”

While Rainbow Dash was sure it was nothing, Twilight, on the other hand, could sense that something was wrong. It was the same bad feeling she had when she was in the jewelry shop. She immediately ran towards the door, much to the shock of the rest of the group, who quickly followed after her. Once Twilight reached the door, she opened it and immediately looked at what was inside the room. The rest arrived shortly afterward, and immediately everyone saw in the room was a person dressed in a black cloak that covered their entire body and a black mask that covered their entire face, making it impossible to know what the person looked like. However, what caught everyone's attention was that the person was forcefully dragging two young children, both boys and girls, who were probably around ten or eight, to what looked like an entrance that was located between two bookshelves. The boy and girl had tears in their eyes as the person pulled on their hair to drag them away.

“Please help us.” The boy cried when he saw them. Having enough of seeing all this sunset march forward to the person.

“Hey buddy, I think you are going too far with your scare.” Sunset said as she stood in front of the person. ”Stop this now or else I am going to complain about this to you, manager.” The person didn’t say anything but instead just stared at her.

“Sunset, you need to run. I don’t think this is fake.” Pinkie suddenly shouted, shocking everyone.

“ What.” Sunset said as she turned to Pinkie. ”What do you mean, not fake?” Before Pinkie could say anything else, a group of people dressed in similar cloaks and masks came out of the entrance. Sunset turned and saw the group of people, and she quickly turned her attention to them. ”Hey you guys, I need to see your manager as I need to make a complaint about...”

Sunset didn’t get to finish as one of the cloak figures suddenly punched her in the stomach, and she suddenly collapsed to the ground, unconscious. The figure suddenly lifted Sunset up and placed her on his shoulder.

“ Sunset.” Twilight shouted.

“Oh, you've done it now, ya varmint.” Applejack shouted as she raised a fist and charged at the figure that was holding sunset. However, the figure just responded by pushing one of their open palms on Applejack's chest once she was near. This somehow resulted in Applejack being thrown across the room until she hit everyone who was still in the doorway. Everyone fell to the ground in a heap. After getting up, everyone quickly turned their attention back to the inside of the room and saw the cloak figures walking to the entrance with sunset and the two kids. Once the last one enters the entrance, the two book shelves move towards one another and quickly cover the entrance.

"Ok, what the heck just happened?” Rainbow said as she and everyone entered the room.

“I am not sure. But what I do know is that what happened early wasn’t fake.” Twilight said before turning her attention to Pinkie. ”By the way, Pinkie, how did you know what happened just now wasn’t fake?”

“It is because of my pinkie senses.” Pinkie said, causing Twilight and Spike to look at her with a look of confusion.

“Pinkie senses.” Spike ask. ”What the heck is that?”

“Pinkie senses are what I call the strange feelings that I always feel when something bad or dangerous is about to happen,” Pinkie said.

“How does that work?” Spike asks.

“I don’t know.” Pinkie said, shrugging. ”It always just happened suddenly, without warning.”

“Well, let’s forget about that for now since we have a much bigger problem to deal with.” Twilight said brining everyone's attention to her. ”Sunset and those two kids were kidnapped, and we need to find a way to help them.”

“So what are we going to do? Call the police,” Sweetie Bell asked as she held spike hand tighter.

“I think it is best we leave this mansion first before discussing what we should do.” Twilight said before turning to rainbow dash and then rarity with a knowing look. Both girls gave a small nod in understanding.

“I agree with twilight.” Rarity said. ”I think it is best we leave this mansion first.” However, before the group could get out of the room, a scream was heard, and everyone turned to see numerous black tentacles grabbing onto Applebloom and trying to pull her through the ground.

“Help me.” Applebloom shouted as she tried to break free from the tentacle, but to no avail. Sweetie Bell, Scootoolo, and Spike, who were near her, quickly rushed to her side and tried to pull her free. This resulted in a tug of war as the three tried to pull Applebloom free.

“ Applebloom.” Applejack shouted as she tried to run towards her sister to help her, only for her to suddenly trip and fall onto her face. She turned behind her and saw two tentacles grab both of her legs. Before Applejack could process what just happened, more tentacles suddenly came out of the ground and began wrapping themselves all over her. They began slowly pulling her through the ground. Applejack quickly tried to break free from the tentacles, but to no avail.

“Applejack,“ Rarity said as she quickly got in front of Applejack. She let go of the plushy she was holding, causing it to fall to the ground, and quickly used both of her hands to grab both of Applejack's hands and quickly try to pull the girl free. However, as she tried to pull Applejack free, more tentacles came out of the ground and began wrapping themselves around her.

“ Rarity.” Twilight shouted as she was about to help rarity, but before she or anyone could do anything, more tentacles came out of the ground and wrapped themselves around her and everyone. Quickly, everyone tried to break free, but to no avail, as they were slowly pulled through the floor. Once everyone was dragged through the floor, the mystery figure from the bus quickly stepped into the room.

“This is quite troublesome.” The mystery figure said before black tentacles popped out of the ground and wrapped themselves around her. The figure, however, wasn’t fazed by this, as a green glow covered her entire body, and shortly afterwards, green flames covered the tentacles, causing them to let go of the figure as they fell back through the floor. ” Annoying.” The figure then walked towards the bookshelves and immediately held one of her hands out towards the two bookshelves. The two bookshelves were suddenly covered in a green aura and quickly moved away from one another to reveal the entrance. The figure looked through the entrance and saw a long staircase that led downward. The figure walked to the edge of the top staircase and immediately jumped off it, and landed on the bottom of the stairs. She looked in front of where she had landed and saw a dark hallway. The figure then walked down it until she disappeared in the darkness of the hallway.
….
After being dragged through the ground, Twilight finds herself only seeing darkness. When the darkness cleared, Twilight found herself falling hard to the ground. She got up, and after dusting herself, she looked around at where she had landed and saw that she had landed in a dark hallway.

“Hello, anyone there." Twilight said as she looked around, and after being sure that she was alone, she was about to transform, only for a shout to interrupt her. ” What.” Twilight looked around to see where the source of the scream was coming from. After realizing that the screen was coming from above her, she immediately looked up and was greeted by the sight of something blue landing on her face, causing her to fall on her back. This something belongs to Pinkie Pie, who is now sitting down on twilight face.

“What just happened?” Pinkie said confused before hearing what sounded like a moan. She looked down and saw she was sitting down on twilight face.

“Oh my gosh, twilight.” Pinkie said as she jumped off of twilight face. The pink-haired girl then looked down and saw that Twilight was still on the ground. ”Twilight, are you okay?”

“Blue.” Twilight said with a blush as she tried to regain her breath and composure.

“ Twilight.” Pinkie said in concern as she moved her head over twilight to look at her. ”You okay their twilight.” That seemed to be enough to snap Twilight out of it, as she instantly shook her head and addressed Pinkie.

“Yeah, I am fine.” Twilight said, as pinkie pie help her up.

“Where are we, and where are the others?” Pinkie said as she looked around.

“I don’t know.” Twilight said. ”But what I do know is that we should try and find the others, or at least the way out.” Both girls then began walking down the hallway in order to find the rest of their friends or the exit.

“I need to somehow get away from Pinkie so I can transform." Twilight, though. ”But how?”

As Twilight was thinking of a way to get away from Pinkie, just long enough for her to transform without being seen, the two came across a double door that was in front of them.

“Should we open it?” Pinkie asks as she turns her attention to Twilight. Before Twilight could answer, the door opened, and immediately a group of black tentacles came out and grabbed the two. The tentacles then drag the two through the door, and once the two are pulled through the door, it closes immediately.
….
“ Ahhhhh.” Both Pinkie Pie and Twilight screamed as they were pulled into the room. The tentacles eventually let go of them once they reached the middle of the room.

“What just happened?” Twilight spoke with a voice full of fear as she and Pinkie looked around the room. The two girls saw that they were in a room that was so dark that it was impossible to see anything around them. The only source of light was the light that was shining over them. Suddenly, the two girls heard moans, and they immediately looked around the room to try and find the source of the sounds. ”Where are those sounds coming from?”

As if to answer twilight question, a large number of ghostly figures surrounded them. The ghostly figures moan as they stretch their hands toward the two girls. Twilight screamed seeing this, but her screaming was interrupted when she heard laughter. Twilight turned and saw that it was Pinkie, who was laughing and making silly faces at the ghost.

“Pinkie, what are you doing?” Twilight ask shock. ”How can you be acting like this?” Pinkie turned to Twilight with a large smile on her face.

"Oh, Twilight, don’t you see that being scared of your fears isn’t the right way to deal with them?” Pinkie said as she turned to face a ghost that was in front of her. ”As my grandmother always said, the best way to deal with your fear is to just laugh, and their will disappear. Hahaha.” After laughing, the ghost in front of Pinkie disappeared in a cloud of smoke, much to twilight shock.

“ How.” Twilight asks in shock.

“Just laugh, Twilight." Pinkie said. She demonstrated this by laughing at another ghost, causing it to disappear in a cloud of smoke. Twilight then turned her attention to the ghost that was in front of her and started laughing, and immediately the ghost disappeared in a cloud of smoke. Seeing that, Twilight continued to laugh at the ghosts that were near him. Pinkie soon joined her, and eventually it wasn’t long before every ghost in the room disappeared, and suddenly light filled the room. The sudden bright light blinded them for a moment, but after their vision was clear, they saw that they could now see the room clearly.

“Look twilight a door.” Pinkie said as she pointed towards the door that was located across the room.

“All right, let’s go.” Twilight said, nodding as both girls began walking towards the door.
….
Both Applejack and rarity found themselves walking through a dark hallway.

“Where do you think everyone is?” Rarity asks in fear.

“I don’t know rares, but one thing is for sure: we need to find the others and get out here.” Applejack said. The two continue to walk until they reach what looks like a living room. They saw there were some curtain windows in the room and quickly went to look through them, only to see that the only thing through the windows were brick walls. The two then saw a door and quickly went to it. After opening it, they went through the door and walked for a bit before stopping as they saw a large, dark abyss in front of them. They looked across the abyss and saw that on the other side of it was an open door that led to another room.

“We need to somehow get to the other side.” Rarity said. ”But how?”

Applejack put her hands on her chin in thought as she tried to think of a way to get to the other side. She looked up and saw a chandelier hanging on the ceiling, and an idea immediately came to her. She then turned her attention to rarity.

“ Rarity I got an idea, but I need to ask you first: do you trust me?” Applejack said, causing rarity to look at her strangely. She stayed silent for a while before finally talking.

“I do trust you.” Rarity said.

“ Good.” Applejack said.
….
Applejack tosses one end of the makeshift lasso she has made from the curtains that were in the previous room. The lasso manages to hit the chandelier and wrap itself around it.

“ Perfect.” Applejack said before tying the other end of the makeshift lasso onto her waist. She then turned her attention to rarity, who had been standing next to her. ”All right, rarity, let’s go.”

“Are you crazy, Applejack? There is no where this is safe.” Rarity said.

“I promise you it will be alright.” Applejack said.

“You can’t guarantee that applejack.” Rarity said.

“I promised you that it would be alright, and that is the honest truth.” Applejack said. Rarity stood still for a moment before sighing in resignation.

“All right, Applejack, I will trust you.” Rarity said as she went closer to Applejack, and once she was near, she wrapped her arms around Applejack while the other girl did the same.

“All right, let’s do this.” Applejack said as she and rarity backup as much as they’re able before charging forward and jumping into the air once they reach the edge. The two swing until they pass the open door.

“We make it.” Rarity said, as applejack let go of her.

"See, I told you it would be alright.” Applejack said as she untied the makeshift lasso around her waist. After she was done with that, she turned her attention to rarity. “All right, let’s go.” The two began walking through the room until a strange sound caused them to stop.

“What was that?” Rarity asked, and as if to answer her question, the portrait that was hung on the walls of the room began to shake, and the painting, which was that of monsters, began leaving their frames and heading towards the two girls.

“ Run.” Applejack said as she grabbed rarity hand, and the two girls ran towards the closed door that was on the other side. However, just as they try to open it, they discover it is locked.

“ What now.” Rarity said as she turn behind them to see the monsters were approaching closely towards them. Applejack let go of rarity hand and quickly back up for a bit before running towards the door and ramming it with her shoulder. Applejack was able to ram it so hard that the door flew off its hinges. Rarity stood in shock seeing that but was snap out of it when Applejack grab one of her hand.

“ Let’s go” Applejack shouted before she and rarity began running to get away from the monsters.
….
“Where do you think the others are currently at?” Fluttershy said in fear as she held onto rainbow dash hand. Currently, both girls were walking through a dark hallway, trying to find their other friends.

“I don’t know, but we need to keep looking.” Rainbow Dash said. As the two continued to walk, they heard something that caused them to stop.

“What was that?” Fluttershy asked in fear as she held onto rainbow dash hand tighter.

“I don’t know.” Rainbow Dash said as she looked at the dark hallway in front of her. Suddenly, a large monster that resembled a Frankenstein monster suddenly came Charging out of the darkness with both hands raised. Reacting quickly, Rainbow Dash grabbed Fluttershy, and both girls quickly went to the side to avoid being grabbed by the monster. This works as the monster simply runs past them; however, it suddenly stops running and quickly turns behind to face them. It roared before running back towards them. Seeing that both girls quickly run as fast as they can to get away from the monster,.

“What now, Rainbow Dash?” Fluttershy asks in fear.

“Just keep running.” Rainbow Dash said. The two keep running until they reach a door. After entering through it, they saw that the door led to what looked like a living room. Rainbow Dash quickly closed the door and tried to hold it shut to keep the monster out. However, this proved pointless as the monster punched one of its hands through the door, narrowing missing rainbow head. The hand pulled back, and looking through the hole, it made rainbow dashsaw the monster. Seeing how holding the door was pointless, she quickly grabbed fluttershy and ran towards the door that was on the other side of the room. They quickly tried to open it, but unfortunately found it locked.

“Damn it,” Rainbow cursed just as the door burst open and the monster charged into the room. Thinking quickly, rainbow quickly grabs Fluttershy and jumps out of the way. This caused the monster to run through the door, breaking it in the process. Both girls quickly looked through the broken door to see that it led to another hallway, and at the end of the hallway was another door. The monster quickly turned back towards them, and grab a piece of the broken door, and toss it at them. Both girls manage to move out of the way in time to dodge the attack. However, even though they managed to dodge the projectile, the broken piece of the door still managed to graze on one of rainbow dash shoulders, leaving a deep scratch that was so deep that blood came out of it.

“ Ow.” Rainbow cries as she places a hand on her bleeding arm.

“Rainbow.” Fluttershy cried when she saw her friend was hurt. The two then suddenly heard a loud sound, causing both girls to turn to its source to see the monster was charging back towards them. Reacting quickly, both girls got out of the way, which resulted in the monster running past them again. Not waiting for the monster to turn back, both girls quickly ran towards the door at the end of the hallway. They opened the door and were about to go in, but immediately stopped when they saw that through the door was nothing but a bottomless void.

“What now, rainbow dash.”Fluttershy asks her friend. Rainbow said nothing but instead turned to look behind them to see the monster charging back towards them.

“I have an idea.” Rainbow said as she whispered her plan to Fluttershy, who only nodded meekly. Both girls stood in front of the door. When the monster was getting close, they separated on time. This resulted in the monster breaking through the door and falling into the void. Both girls sighed in relief, seeing that their trouble was over for now. Fluttershy then turns her attention towards Fluttershy and looks at her bleeding shoulders.

"Rainbow, your shoulder is bleeding.” Fluttershy said in a worried tone.

“It’s okay; it’s just a scratch.” Rainbow said in a reassuring tone.

“It’s not okay." Fluttershy said as she brought out a handkerchief from her pocket. ”Here, let me help.” Fluttershy quickly tied the handkerchief over the wound. This stopped the bleeding, causing Fluttershy to sigh in relief.

“Thank you, Fluttershy.” Rainbow said

“So, what now.”Fluttershy ask.

“I am not sure.” Rainbow said as she and the other girl looked through the broken door. Eventually, they spotted a door that was on the other side of the abyss. ”There is a door.” Rainbow pointed towards the door, gaining Fluttershy attention.

“But it is too far.” Fluttershy said. ”How are we going to get to it?”

Hearing that rainbow put her fingers on her chin in though. She knows she could just transform and fly to the other side, but that would mean revealing her secret, which she had promised to keep. However, given the situation they were in, she might not have a choice in the matter. Unknown to the two girls, however, standing near the broken door was the mystery figure from the bus who was looking at them in silence.

“I know I am not supposed to intervene, but given the current situation, I might have to make an exception.” The figure said as she pulled down the front of her jacket to reveal a pendant with a red gem attached to it. She clutched the gem with one hand, and immediately a green glow covered it. Afterward, a small green wisp came out of the clutch gem and flew onto the ground. It then flew forward until it flew past both Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, who didn't see the wisp fly past their legs. It eventually stops once it reaches the middle of the abyss. It then glowed and expanded until it reached both sides, and once the glow subsided, it revealed a stone platform that connected to both sides.

“What just happened?” Fluttershy asked in surprise.

“I am not sure.” Rainbow said. ”But we should not think too much about it and just use the bridge to get to the other side.”

“Are you sure it is safe?” Fluttershy asks in an uncertain tone.

“No, I am not, but it’s not like we have much of a choice.” Rainbow said as she grabbed fluttershy hand, and both girls quickly ran across the bridge to get to the other side. After walking through the door, they find themselves in another dark hallway. The two girls gulped in fear before walking through the hallway. As the two began walking away, the figure from the bus stood at the broken door and watched them in silence.
….
Both Twilight and Pinkie had been walking through a dark hallway until eventually they stopped once they reached a double door that was on the wall to their right. However, not only did they see a door, but they also saw two other paths. One that continued from the path that they were currently walking on, and the one that was in front of the door.

“So should we take one of the paths or go through the door?” Pinkie ask.

“Let me think first.” Twilight said as she considered her options. However, she didn’t have a chance to think too much as she heard footsteps coming from the path in front of them. The two girls turned to see what was coming from that path, and after a few seconds, they saw that walking out of the darkness of the other hallway was rainbow dash and fluttershy. Both groups of girls smiled once they saw each other.

“There you guys are.” Rainbow said as she and Fluttershy ran towards the other two girls.

“Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy." Twilight smiled happily, which was mirrored by Pinkie Pie. Once Rainbow and Fluttershy had gotten near them, they noticed that it was just them.

“Where is everyone else?” Fluttershy asks worriedly.

“We don’t know.” Twilight said. "We have been looking for everyone, but so far, you two are the only ones we manage to find.” Suddenly, large, heavy footsteps were heard, and everyone turned to the last path to see rarity and applejack running out of the darkness of the hallway.

“There you guys are.” Pinkie said smiling before she and everyone else noticed the terrifying look on their faces. It wasn’t long before they found out why, as emerging from the darkness behind them, there were a large number of monsters chasing after them.

“ Run.” Rarity cried, and immediately everyone pushed open the double door and quickly went through it. Once the last person had entered through it, they immediately closed it. However, this didn’t stop the monsters from chasing after them since when the monsters were near the door, they tried to open it, and seeing this twilight and the rest of her friends quickly jumped in front of the door and used their bodies to barricade the door shut. This works to stop the door from opening, but it is only a temporary solution as the monsters just continue to push harder. At the rate that the monsters are going, the door will soon be forced open.

“What now?” Fluttershy, who was leaning her back on the door, said. Twilight didn’t say anything, as she already knew what she had to do if this kept up. She turned to face rarity, and then Rainbow Dash, who both immediately understood what Twilight was trying to say. They nodded their heads in understanding. All three girls were about to activate their transformation when suddenly they heard something strange from the other side of the door, and after the sound stopped, the monsters were no longer trying to force the door open, much to the shock and confusion of all the girls.
….
On the other side of the door, there was a large green fire that covered the floor where the monsters had stood previously. Once the fire subsided, it showed that the monsters were all gone. Standing on the path where Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy came from was the mystery figure.

“Can’t those buffoons do anything right?"the mystery figure said in annoyance. She then hears the door opening and reacting quickly; the figure blasted a green stream of fire from her hands. The fire hit the floor that was near her, and immediately it expanded and formed a fire swirl that covered her entire body. Once it subsided, it showed that the mystery figure had disappeared. Shortly after the fire disappeared, Twilight poked her head out of the door and saw that the monsters were gone. She turned left and right just to make sure, and once she confirmed that the coast was clear, she pulled her head in and closed the door. She then turned and addressed her friends, who had been standing behind him the entire time.

“The monsters are gone,” Twilight said.

“But why?” Fluttershy ask.

"I am not sure, but one thing is for certain: it is best we get out of here as soon as we can before they come back.” Twilight said, to which everyone nodded their heads in agreement. Everyone then quickly looked around the room they were in, which was empty, with the only thing in it was a single elevator.

“I take it; we are going to use that elevator.” Rainbow asked already, knowing the answer.

“Well, it’s not like we have much of a choice.” Rarity said. Knowing they didn’t have much of a choice, the group headed towards the elevator. After opening it, the group entered it.

“It seems this elevator only goes one way.” Twilight said as she saw that there was only one floor where the elevator could go, which was down. Twilight pushed the down button, and the elevator door closed. It started heading down, and after a few seconds of waiting, the elevator finally stopped and its door opened. The group then walked out and was immediately shocked at what they saw. As they saw, they were now in a large room, and on both sides of the room were countless large pods like those from a science fiction movies, and in those pods, they saw there were people in them who seemed to be out cold. However, that wasn’t what shocked them the most; what shocked all of them the most was the large machine in the center of the room, which was connected to the pods via cable. Said machine was a large metallic tower with a metallic spear on top of it. However, their shock didn’t end there, as they saw above the machine a large, dark portal.

“What is this?” Fluttershy said as she, Pinkie, and Applejack looked at the portal in shock. Unknown to those three, however, three of their friends had moved from starting at the portal to staring at the pods.

The three girls could see that inside the pods, the people inside were having their life energy drain. They also saw that a blue glow was coming from the pods and was traveling to the machine through the use of the cable, and in addition to that, they could see that life energy was being fired into the portal through the use of the metallic spear that was on top of it.

“Everyone, look, it’s sunset.” Rarity said bringing everyone's attention to her. They saw her pointing to one of the pods, and everyone quickly turned to see where she was pointing and immediately saw that inside one of the pods was indeed sunset shimmer, who, like everyone else, was out cold.

“Not just sunset look.” Rainbow said, pointing to two of the pods. Everyone turned to see where she was pointing, and they immediately saw that in two of the pods were the kids from earlier.

“What the heck is going on here?” Applejack said.

“It’s the beginning of a nightmare; that's what’s going on.” A voice said, and immediately everyone turned in the direction of the voice to see that walking from behind the machine was the man from before who announced the opening of nightmare mansion. Not just him, though, as walking from behind the machine was the mask and cloak figure from earlier who kidnapped Sunset and the two kids.

“ You.” Rarity said, pointing at the man. "You are the person from before who announced the opening of this mansion.”

“That’s right, I am. The name is Fear Master, and I am quite impressed that you managed to make it this far.” The man, now known as fear master said: ”The monsters that you encounter were supposed to capture you and put you into the pods so I could drain you of your life energy. Of course, the fact that the chase was prolonged doesn’t really bother me, as it means I get to eat more fear.”

“Eat fear,” Applejack asks.

“Yes, eat fear.” Fear master said. ”You see, by eating fear, my power and strength would grow exponentially, and the stronger the fear, the stronger I become. It’s for that reason that I had you all go through my mansion so I could squeeze as much fear as I could from you all. Of course, I had to separate you all first, as I knew that if you all were traveling in a much larger group, you wouldn’t produce as much fear as I wanted. And speaking of fear.” Fear Master then snapped his fingers, and immediately phasing through the floor was a large cage, and inside the cage were spike, sweetie bell,Applebloom and scootoolo.

“ Spike.” Twilight shouted.

“ Scootoolo.” Rainbow Dash shouted.

“Applebloom.” Applejack shouted.

“Sweetie bell.” Rarity shouted.

“ Twilight.” Spike shouted when he saw his sister. This was followed by the others, who shouted their older siblings names once they saw them.

“What’s the meaning of this?” Rarity demanded. ”What are you doing with our siblings?”

“Oh, nothing much.” Fear Master said as he shrugged his shoulders. ” Except for eating, their fears. Do you know that young children are more likely to produce more powerful fears than adults and teens? But enough with that, as it is time for you and your friends to join the others in the pod.” Fear master than snap his fingers, and immediately all the cloak figures began approaching them.

“What now?” Fluttershy asked in fear as the cloaked figure approached them. Twilight, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash look at one another for a moment before nodding their heads in silent agreement. All three raised their bracelet hands in the air and shouted their transformation phrase.

“Elements of harmony, magic.” Twilight shouted.

“Elements of harmony, generosity.” Rarity shouted.

“Elements of harmony, loyalty “ rainbow dash shouted.

A bright light covered the three, and once the light subsided, it revealed all three were now in their magical girl outfits. All three then turn their attention to the cloaked figure with a look of determination.

“What just happened?” Applejack asked in shock and confusion, which was mirrored by everyone else.

“You three are magical girls.” Pinkie Pie said in awe.

“Now what a surprise.” Fear master said. ”I didn’t think I would be encountering the holder of the elements of harmony so soon. But it doesn’t matter anywhere since you and all your friends shall meet your end. Attack.”

Immediately after saying that, all the cloak figures charged at them. Reacting quickly to the approaching attacks, both rarity and twilight fire a large magical blast at the cloak figures, while rainbow dash fires a large lightning attack at them. Once their attack hit the cloak figure, they exploded in a cloud of black smoke.

“ impressive.” Fear master said. ”But you still have not won yet.” Immediately after saying that, he took off his jacket and top hat and tossed them aside, and shortly after that, his body began to change. First, he grew a couple inches taller, then his skeleton costume and makeup began merging with his body until he became a real skeleton. However, the changes didn’t stop there, as his hair grew longer and wildly until eventually it stopped halfway around his back. His head suddenly began changing until it no longer resembled a human head. He also grew two large horns on the side of his head. His eyes also started glowing a menacing red, with him also gaining an extra two eyes that also glow red. His hands suddenly turned into sharp claws, and in addition to that, he grew four extra hands, and finally, his teeth turned into sharp fangs that looked like they could easily tear flesh apart. ”Prepared to meet your end.” Fear Master then got onto all fours and fired a large black magical blast at the group. Reacting quickly, both twilight and rarity form a magical barrier that blocks the attack. However, the attack resulted in an explosion that shattered the shield and blew the entire group back, causing them to fall to the ground in a heap.

After getting up, Twilight quickly makes her scepter appear in one of her hands and immediately uses it to fire a magical blast at fear master, who avoids the attack by jumping out of the way. However, unfortunately for him, he forgot about the machine behind him, and as a result, the attack instead of hitting him ended up hitting the machine. The attack exploded upon impact, which resulted in the machine receiving minor damage. Fear master immediately turned his attention to his machine and quickly rushed towards it to check on the damage. However, unfortunately for him, Rainbow took this moment of distraction to attack him as she fired a lightning attack at him. The attack made a direct hit on him, causing him intense pain, and once it subsided, he fell to the ground. After recovering from the attack, he stood up and immediately heard something. He turned to the source and saw that it came from the cage where he put spike sweetie bell,Applebloom and scootoolo. Next to the cage was rarity, who had formed a diamond sword, which she used to cut the locks of the cage. Fear Master quickly realized that the sound he heard was the sound of the locks being cut by rarity diamond sword.

“Get out of here while you still can.” Rarity said as spike and the rest began leaving the cage.

“But what about you and the others?” Sweetie Bell asked her older sister.

“Don’t worry about us; we will be alright.” Rarity said.

"Yeah, have faith in rarity,” Spike said. ”Things will be alright.”

“None of you will be alright once I am done with you.” Fear Master said as he got on all fours again and fired multiple stands of his hair, which sharpened into sharp needles at all four of them. Reacting quickly, rarity forms a diamond shield to block the attack. However, this didn’t stop Fear Master, as he just continued to blast more of his needle hair at them. However, due to all his focus being on them, he didn’t notice Twilight, who had fired a magical blast at him, causing him to fly off the ground and to land on his side. He got up and turned to face Twilight. He opened his mouth and was about to fire a magical blast at her, but before he could, rarity, who had dropped her shield, had fired a magical blast from her headband at him. The blast hit him on his chest, causing him to fall to his back. As he lay on the ground, he saw a shadow was over him. He looked up and saw that it was rainbow dash who was flying above him. She forms a spear-shaped lighting on one of her hands and tosses it towards him.

Reacting quickly, he rolls out of the way of the attack, and immediately after rolling out of the way, he jumps onto his feet and fires another magical blast from his mouth at her. However, Rainbow Dash manages to fly out of the way on time, and after dodging the attack, she fires a lightning attack at Fear Master, who manages to dodge the attack on time. However, he wasn’t able to dodge the magical blast that was fire by rarity on time. The blast hit him, sending him flying until it hit the floor. After hitting the floor, he rolls over it for a bit before stopping. As he tried to get up, he was suddenly grabbed by a magical aura and was suddenly lifted into the air. Fear Master looked around and saw that the one who was responsible for trapping him in the aura was rarity. Rarity then slammed him onto the ground over and over again, and after slamming him one last time, she lifted him into the air. Shortly after being placed into the air, Rainbow Dash immediately flew into the air, and after gaining a good amount of distance, she flew towards fear master as fast as she could. While she flew towards him, she covered her entire body with lightning, which ended up increasing her speed. With her increased speed, Rainbow Dash was able to ramm Fear Master so hard that the two ended up going through the machine. After ramming through the machine, Rainbow Dash then rammed Fear Master onto the ground so hard that it left small cracks on it. She then flew above fear master and fired a lightning attack on him again before flying away and landing next to Twilight and Rarity, who had gathered together. Behind them were the rest of their friends and their younger siblings, who had been standing nearby and watching the entire fight.

“Wow, you guys are amazing.” Pinkie said.

“I quite agree with you, their pinkie.” Applejack said. ”Those three are amazing.”

“Well, what do you expect from rainbow dash?” Scootoolo said. ”My big sister is amazing.”

“My sister, too, is amazing.” Sweetie Bell said.

“And don’t forget twilight.” Spike said.

Fear Master got up and saw his machine was destroyed, and with the machine destroyed, life energy is no longer being fired into the portal. He turned and glared at his three opponents.

“I am going to end you all, even if it costs me my life.” Fear Master shouted as his body was covered in a dark aura, and he underwent another transformation. First, his body grew even bigger and bulkier until he was so big that there barely reached his shin. Two skeletal wings then formed on his back, and in addition to that, large spikes also grew on his backs. His teeth became even sharper, and his mouth extended until it became a snout. Once the transformation was completed, fear master turned his attention towards them. ”prepared to die.”

“And I thought this guy was ugly before.” Rainbow said before firing a lightning attack at him, which was followed by both twilight and rarity, which fired a magical blast at him. All three attacks hit him. However, the attacks seem to have done little to no damage, as he stood unfazed.

“That tickles.” Fear Master said before he spread his wings and took flight into the air. Fear Master then blasted a large, dark, magical blast from his mouth at the group. Everyone quickly ran out of the way, and when the beam hit the ground they were on earlier, it exploded upon impact, sending the group and one of the pods flying into the air. Fortunately, the people in the pods were unharmed; however, the same can’t be said about the three magical girls, their sisters, and the rest of their friends. While it was true they weren’t directly hit by the attack, the explosion still blew them back, and in addition to that, some part of the floor debris still hit them, leaving a bit of scratch on their bodies and clothes. However, luckily for them, besides receiving a few scratches, they didn’t receive any serious injuries.

“Is everyone okay?” Twilight asked as she and everyone got up.

“Yeah, I am ok.” Pinkie said, which was followed by everyone who told her that they were okay.

“None of you will be okay once I am done with you.” Fear master spoke from the air. He could feel the fear coming out of them, and with each fear he devoured, he could feel himself growing stronger. Rainbow Dash quickly crouchs down to the floor and places one of her hands on it while also forming a lightning-shaped lance on her other hand. Suddenly, lightning covered her body, and like a rocket, she launched herself to fear master so fast that it was almost impossible to see her. She pointed the lance towards fear master head in an attempt to impale him. However, Fear Master managed to react quickly and immediately swat her away like a fly. Shortly after swatting rainbow dash aside, he saw rarity had thrown a large diamond ball at him. He simply fired a large magical blast at it, which caused it to explode into pieces, and when the smoke that was created by the explosion was clear, he saw a magical blast being fired at him. Fear Master didn’t even bother to defend himself and let the attack hit him. The attack hit him, but like before, it didn’t do any damage to him. He turned to where the attack was fired and saw that the person who fired at him was Twilight. Twilight then turns her attention to the rest of the group, who have a look of worry on their faces.

“You guys need to get out of here while you still can.” Twilight said in a serious tone.

“But what about you and the others?” Spike asks in a worried tone. ”This guy is too strong for you three to take on.”

“Don’t worry, we will figure something out.” Twilight said in her best reassure tone. ”Just go for now.”

“ But….” Fluttershy said, but was interrupted by rarity.

“Just listen to her and go.” Rarity said. ”It’s okay, darling, we will be okay.”

Fluttershy was about to protest again but was interrupted by Applejack, who placed a hand on her shoulder.

“Come on, sugarcube, its best we go.” Applejack said in a serious tone.

“But what about Twilight, rarity, and rainbow dash?” Sweetie Bell protested.

"There is nothing we can do here, and if we stay, all we are doing is getting in the way.” Applejack said in a serious tone, to which everyone couldn’t help but agree. Applejack then turned her attention to the rest of her friends. ”Promise me you three will be alright.”

“We promised.” Twilight said.

“Me too,” Rarity said.

“Me too.” Rainbow dash said as she got up from the ground.

“ Ok.” Applejack said as she nodded. ”Let’s go.” She then took Fluttershy by the hand and began pulling her along as she walked back towards the elevator. The rest took one last look at Twilight, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash and reluctantly followed them back to the elevator.

“No one is going anywhere.” Fear Master said as he flew over them and landed in front of the elevator, blocking the retreating group from their only exit. ”I will end you all first, and when I am done with you, I will end the element wielder.” Fear Master then raised his claw hand and swiped it down towards them.

“ No.” Twilight,Rarity, and Rainbow Dash scream in horror seeing this. However, twilight bracelets glow, and immediately after glowing, three balls of light came out of the bracelet and headed towards Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Fluttershy. They covered all three girls wrists, and immediately after covering their wrists, a large magical beam was fired from the ball of light and hit the hand. Once the beam hit his hand, he recoiled it back in pain.

“What just happened?” Applejack asks as she and everyone look on in shock. Applejack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie then turn their attention to the ball of light on their wrists. They watched as the light disappeared, and in their place were three bracelets, which they are now wearing on their wrists. Applejack was wearing a bracelet with an apple-shaped gem; Fluttershy was wearing a bracelet with a butterfly-shaped gem; and Pinkie Pie was wearing a bracelet with a balloon-shaped gem. Twilight, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash, who saw them wearing the bracelet, realized what had happened and immediately knew what needed to be done.

“What’s this?” Pinkie said.

“Applejack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie." Twilight shouted, gaining everyone's attention. “You three concentrate and follow your instinct.”

“ Huh.” Applejack said confused, which was reflected by the two girls.

“You heard her: just concentrate and follow your instinct.” Rainbow said.

“Trust us guys; it is very important that you do that.” Rarity said. They were silent for a few seconds before Pinkie broke it.

“ Ok.” Pinkie said as she closed their eyes and did what Twilight, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash instructed. It wasn’t long before both Applejack and Fluttershy also followed suit. After doing that, they can instantly feel what their instinct is telling them to do. Following what their instincts were telling them, all three girls raised the hand that had the bracelet in the air and said the words that came to mind.

“Elements of harmony, honesty.” Applejack shouted.

“Elements of harmony, kindness,“ Fluttershy shouted.

“Elements of harmony, laughter.” Pinkie Pie shouted.

After shouting, the three girls entire bodies were covered by a bright light, and immediately after it died down, it revealed all three girls were now wearing different outfits.

Pinkie was now wearing a pink jester’s cap with small bells on it, a pink bodysuit, a pair of white frilly gloves, and pink curly-toed shoes.

Applejack was now wearing silver armor, which covered her entire body with only her head exposed. She wore a large red cape on her back, and in addition to that strap on Applejack side was a large broadsword. All in all, Applejack now resembles a knight in shining armor like those in fairy tails.

Fluttershy was now wearing a yellow robe with a short, green, and blue cape and a hood. But what stood out most were the two ethereal wings on her back.

“What happened?" Fluttershy said as she and everyone examined their new outfits.

“Wow, I think we have become magical girls.” Pinkie said in awe.

“ No.” Fear Master shouted, drawing everyone's attention towards him. ”All the elements of harmony wielder have now been found. I must end you all now before you could be a threat.” Fear Master raised one of his legs and was about to step on them, but before he could, Rainbow Dash managed to ramm him on his head with enough force to cause him to fall on his back. After falling onto his back, Rainbow Dash took the opportunity to gather as much energy as she could, and once she was done gathering energy, she fired a large lightning attack on Fear Master Head. Unlike previous attacks, this one managed to do harm to him as he let out a large scream of pain. After the attack subsided, Rainbow Dash formed a fist with her hands and covered them with lightning. She then flew down and landed on his face, and once she landed on his face, she repeatedly punched one of his eyes as hard as she could. Fear Master screamed in pain with each punch; however, once she saw a large shadow over her, she stopped her attack and looked up to see that the large shadow was caused by one of Fear Master's hands, which was over her. She saw that the hand was brought down, and reacting quickly, she flew away just as the hand slammed onto fear master's face.

While in the air, Rainbow Dash saw that Spike, Applebloom, Scootoolo, Fluttershy, Applejack, Sweetie Bella, and Pinkie Pie had regrouped with twilight and rarity. Rainbow Dash quickly landed beside them.

“So what now?” Rainbow asked as she and everyone turned their attention to fear master, who was now getting up from the ground.

“We can’t beat him on our own.” Twilight said before turning her attention to Fluttershy, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie. ”But with your three help, we might stand a change.”

“ Us.” Fluttershy said in shock. ”How can we help?”

“Well, duh, we are magical girls now.” Pinkie Pie said. ”We just used our new magic powers to beat the monster.”

“Um, how are we supposed to do that?” Applejack asks.

“The same way you activate your transformation.” Twilight said. ”Just concentrate and follow your instinct.”

“That’s it," Applejack asks.

“Yes, that’s it, darling.” Rarity said. ”And I suggest you do it quick.” Shortly after saying that, she fired a magical blast at fear master, who had started approaching them. The attack did nothing to stop him. Seeing that rainbow dash, and twilight decided to quickly gather as much energy as they could and fire a large magical beams and lightning attacks at fear master. The combined attack was powerful enough to cause him to fall on his back.

“ Hurry.” Rainbow said. Quickly, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy close their eyes and concentrate. After doing that, they can instantly feel what their instincts are telling them. It was telling them how to fight.

Follow what her instincts were telling her. Applejack quickly pulled out her sword and pointed it at fear master, who was getting up. She pointed her sword at fear master, and instantly a large stream of fire came out of it. The attack hit fear master on his face, causing him enough pain to recoiled back. Once the fire subsided, fear master turned his attention to the group. He then flew into the air and opened his mouth before firing a magical blast at them. However, before the attack hit, Fluttershy suddenly stepped forward and held her hand out. After she did that, a large wind suddenly blew the attack back at him. The attack hit, causing him to fall back to the ground.

“My turn.” Pinkie said as she got in front of the group. She took off her jester hat and put a hand into it. She then pulled out a large pink bazooka. As fear master got up, Pinkie took aim, and once she got a clear shot of fear master, she pulled the trigger of her bazooka. ”SMILE EXPLOSION OF DOOM.” Pinkie Pie shouted before firing her bazooka, and immediately after firing it, multiple pink magical blasts came out of it. The magical blast took the form of confetti, streamers, balloons, cupcakes, party hats, and birthday candles. The magical blast flew towards fear master and made a direct hit on his face, resulting in a large explosion that created a large pink cloud that covered his entire face. Once the smoke clears, it shows that fear Master has sustained a bit of damage to his face. He glared at all of them, opened his wings, and flew into the air. However, as he was flying high into the air, Fluttershy decided to take action by first making a staff appear on one of her hands. The staff was made up of wood, and attached to the top of the staff was a large pink gem that was shaped like a butterfly. She slammed the end of her staff onto the ground, and immediately after she did that, the gem glowed before firing a large wind slash that hit one of fear master wings. The slash was sharp enough to cut through it, and with the loss of one of his wings, Fear Master ended up falling from the air and hitting the ground faced first.

“Nice work, Fluttershy.” Rainbow Dash praised her friend.

“Oh, it was really nothing.” Fluttershy said in a modest tone. A large howl was then heard, and everyone turned to see that fear master had gotten up. He glared at them and charged toward them. Pinkie Pie, being the first to react, quickly took off her hat again and pulled out a deck of cards from it. She threw one card on the ground, and it immediately enlarged. Pinkie Pie then jumped onto it, and the card took off into the air. She flew towards fear master, and once she was near, fear master tried to swat her away, only for her to dodge the attack. After dodging the attack, Pinkie Pie began throwing the cards towards fear master's face. As soon as the card hit him, it exploded on impact. However, it didn’t do much damage, as fear master stood unfazed. He then continued to swipe the air in an attempt to hit Pinkie Pie. However, the girl was able to avoid each swipe, and as she dodged each swipe, she continued to throw each card at him. However, like before, none of the attacks had any effect on him. Pinkie, however, didn’t stop as she threw more cards at Fear Master until she was down to her last card. She threw the card, and it flew off until it made a direct hit on one of his eyes. This actually managed to hurt him as he recoiled back in pain. As he began moving backward, Pinkie took this opportunity to fly down near his feet and immediately stretch her arms to unnatural lengths. She wrapped it around fear master feet, causing him to fall to the ground. However, this ends up indirectly causing Pinkie Pie to fly off the card and into the air. Pinkie was able to, however, use this to her advantage as she positioned her body over fear master face and stretched her arms back as far as she could, and once she was closed enough, she brought both arms down on two of fear master eyes. The force of the punch was enough to send Pinkie back flying into the air, and as she began falling again, her card managed to fly under her, catching her in the process. Pinkie then pulled out another bazooka out of her hat and took aim at fear master head.

“PARTY HEAD MISSILES.” Pinkie shouted before firing her bazooka. Unlike before, what came out this time was a large ball of pink magic that exploded into at least 10 magical blasts that took the form of party hats. The blast hit Fear Master directly in the face, creating a large explosion. After the smoke cleared, Fear Master tried to get up, but just as he had sat up, Pinkie flew in front of him, and immediately she put one of her thumbs into her mouth and started blowing into it. This ended up enlarging her hand, and once she was done enlarging it, she stretched it back as far as she could. Once she was near enough, she brought her enlarged hand forward and punched fear master in the face with enough force that he was flung back until he hit the wall that was behind him. As he lay next to the wall, still recovering from the attack, Pinkie Pie took the opportunity to fly bald towards her friends, and once she lowered the card to the ground, she got off it and turned her attention to Twilight. ”So what now?”

“ Hmmm.” Twilight said as she put a finger in her chin in thought. As she did this, an idea suddenly came to her. ”I believe if we all fire our most powerful attack at the same time on fear master, we might be able to finally beat him. Of course it is not a guarantee.”

“Well, it’s not like we have a choice.” Applejack said as she and everyone turned their attention to fear master who was getting up.

“Okay, everyone, gather as much energy as you can and aim for his head.” Twilight said as she pointed her scepter and began gathering as much energy as she could. As she did this, the star on her tiara began to glow as she drew powers from it and into her scepter. The others did the same and gathered as much energy as they could. However, the only one not doing this was Pinkie Pie, who just aimed her bazooka at fear master. After fear master had finally gotten up, he charged at them as fast as he could. Once he was near enough, Twilight pointed her scepter at his head.

“Now everyone.” Twilight shouted as she fired a large energy beam from her scepter. The others did the same, with Rarity firing a large magical beam from her headband, Rainbow Dash firing a large lighting attack, Applejack blasting a large stream of fire from her sword, and Fluttershy firing a large wind attack from her staff.

“SMILE EXPLOSION OF DOOM!” Pinkie shouted as she pulled the trigger of her bazooka. All the attacks that were fired managed to make a direct hit on fear master's head, resulting in a large explosion that created a large smoke that cover fear master's entire body. Once the smoke cleared, they saw that fear master was now headless, as their combined attack had managed to completely destroy his head. The headless body fell to the ground, and it wasn’t long before it began slowly breaking apart and turning into dust. After a while, the entire skeleton body disappeared, leaving nothing but dust behind. Shortly after the body disappeared completely, the portal that was in the air closed up, and shortly after the portal closed up, a white light covered the ceiling of the room, and slowly it expanded until it covered the entire room. In addition to that, a white light also covers the pods. Once the light died down, everyone found themselves in a small room, with the only exit being a staircase that led towards a door. In addition to that, they also saw that once the light on the pods died down, they saw that the pods had completely disappeared, leaving the people that were inside on the floor.

“So what now?” Sweetie Bell asks.

“Well, first, we should turn ourselves back to normal.” Twilight said. ”And I know you all have so many questions, and I promise I will answer them. But first we should get out of here, so I suggest you all change back.”

“Um, how are we supposed to do that?” Applejack asks.

“It’s simple; just concentrate and will yourself back to normal.” Rainbow Dash said. Immediately after saying that the three newest users of the elements of harmony did as instructed and immediately a bright light covered the three, and once it died down, it revealed that the three had turned back to normal.

“Well, now that you are done with that, I think it is best we take sunset and get out of here.” Twilight said. ”With a little luck, she will think what happened early was just a dream.”

“But what about everyone else?” Fluttershy asked.

“How about we just tell the manager we found a group of people laying unconscious in the basement of this building?” Applejack said.

“Well, that does sound like a good idea.” Spike said.

“Well, if there's nothing else, let’s go already.” Twilight said.
….
Sunset woke up with a groan, and after using her hands to rub the sleepiness out of her eyes, she quickly took a look around and found that she was sitting down on a bus seat with twilight seating down next to her near the window of the bus.

“Oh, sunset, good, you are awake.” Twilight said happily after seeing that sunset had woken up.

“What happened?" Sunset ask. ”The last thing I remember was that we were going through a haunted mansion attraction, and then it’s all blank.”

“Oh, while we were going through the haunted mansion, you accidentally tripped on a loose floorboard and got knocked out.” Rarity, who was sitting on the seat behind them, said: Sunset then turned her attention to Rarity, who was sitting down next to Applejack. She saw on her lap was the unicorn plushy applejack had won for her. Unknown to sunset, however, is that rarity lost it earlier when they were dragged into the hallway of the mansion. However, luckily, when they exited the mansion, they were able to find it on their way out.

“Wow, really.” Sunset said. ”Man, that’s embarrassing.”

“Don’t worry too much, sunset.” Applejack said. ”We were about to leave anywhere.“

“Well, despite that humiliating accident, it was still a good day, don’t you think so, Twilight?" Sunset said as she turned to Twilight.

“Yeah, it really was a good day.” Twilight said as she looked out through the window to look at the evening light. ”We should do this again someday.” As she continued to stare through the window, she saw multiple ambulances go past the bus.

“What do you think that’s all about.” Sunset asked after seeing the ambulances go past them. No one answered, as they already knew that the ambulance had no doubt been called by the manager of Equestrialand after receiving a tip that a large number of people had been found unconscious.
….
Back in the amusement park, a large number of people were staring at a stage where a young girl dressed in magician attire was performing. This girl was none other than Trixie.

“And now for the great and powerful Trixie final trick.” Trixie said before holding both of her hands up into the air, and shortly after doing that, a large blue ball of energy appeared in the air. It enlarges, and after it is done enlarging, it instantly fires into the air and explodes in a bright, beautiful light, much to the amusement of the audience. After the light died down, all the audience members clapped their hands.

“Thank you, thank you; you all have been a lovely audience.” Trixie said as she bowed down. After she was done bowing, she then walked past the curtain of the stage and headed to her dressing room. As she was about to turn the doorknob of the dressing room, she sensed something and quickly turned behind her. Standing behind her was the mystery figure who had been following Twilight and her friends.

“Who are you?” Trixie demanded as she pointed a hand towards him.

"Now there is no need for hostility; I just want to talk.” The figure said this as she held both of her hands up.

“Oh, please, do you think Trixie is a fool?” Trixie said. ”Trixie can sense you are not human.”

“Heh, you got me there." The figure said, ”Then again, I suppose I shouldn’t expect anything less of the daughter of Star Lulamoon.”

"Hm, so you did your research on Trixie, but Trixie supposed it shouldn’t be surprising that you know of trixie father, as he was after all one of the greatest magicians to ever exist.” Trixie said in a prideful tone. ”That is, until those no-good princesses imprison him.” Her face turned to anger after saying that.

“You hold a grudge against the princess for your father's imprisonment.” The figure said: ”Good, because I got a deal you might be interested in.”

“What deal is that?” Trixie asks, raising an eyebrow.

“Well, as you said earlier, I did my research on you, and I know for a fact that you are a hired mercenary who would work for anyone if the price was right, and not only that, but your preferred method of payment is magical artifacts, books, and pretty much anything that can increase your powers.” The figure said.

“Well, of course, Trixie would need everything she can get to get revenge for Trixie's father.” Trixie said. ”Of course, if Trixie can’t be paid with magic artifacts or books, Trixie can just take money instead and use it to buy things that can help Trixie to improve Trixie skills.”

“Well, in that case, what I offer you will help improve your skill greatly.” The figure said: ”And in addition to that, as a bonus, you will finally get a chance for revenge.”

“You have Trixie's interest now.” Trixie said, as she now has a look of interest.

“ Good.” The figure said as she pulled out a small red jewel from her pocket. Trixie's eyes widen when she sees the jewel. ”I take it; you know what this is.”

“The diamond of pride.” Trixie said in shock. ”A legendary diamond that is said to be able to enhance its user powers.”

“And it is yours if you are willing to help me and my comrade with a little something we have been planning.” The figure said:.

“Trixie would be foolish to refuse this offer.” Trixie said.

“ Good.” The figure said, and shortly afterward, the jewel glowed and levitated into the air before heading towards Trixie. It went through Trixie's chest, and immediately she glowed with a red aura as her eyes changed from purple to red. After the aura surrounding her died down, Trixie made a red ball of magic appear on her hands, and immediately after she made it appear, she made it disappear. She then turned to the figure.

“So what now?” Trixie asked the figure.

“Well, first we should go and introduce you to the rest of my comrades , and then we can discuss business.” The figure said:.

“By the way, who are you anywhere?” Trixie asked the figure.

“You may call me nightingale.” The figure, now known as Nightingale, said before walking away, with Trixie following behind her.

…..
That night in an abandoned factory, both Trixie and Nightingale can be seen walking inside it. They walk up the stairs, and after getting up onto the top floor, they make their way to an office door. Nightingale knocked on the door once she was near it.

“Come in.” A male voice said,and immediately the two entered the office. In the office, a figure could be seen sitting down on an office chair. They couldn’t see the figure as the chair they were sitting on was facing the other direction. On the desk was a black scarf and a white mask with a gold design. The figure turned the chair to face them, but due to the darkness of the office, his face couldn’t be seen. ”I take it; everything’s turned out alright.”

“It did lord descent, and not only that, I managed to acquire a new ally for our cause.” Nightingale said, gesturing to Trixie. ”This is Trixie Lulamoon.”

“Trixie lulamoon, as in the daughter of Star lulamoon.” Descent ask.

“Yes, you are correct.” Trixie said as she approached descent. ”It is a pleasure to meet you, lord descent.”

“The pleasure is mine.” Descent said before turning his attention to nightingale.”You did an excellent job finding us a powerful ally.”

“It was nothing lord descent.” Nightingale said. ”I also take it your mission turned out well.”

“It did.” Descent said as he brought out a large black book from one of the drawers of his desk and placed it on the table. Trixie, out of curiosity, took a closer look at the book and saw that the title of the book was Dark Prophecy of Ancient Past.

“Hold on, isn’t that book supposed to be in the forbidden section of the library in Celestial Castle?" Trixie ask.

“It is, or in this case, was.” Descent said. ”It took me a while, but I was eventually able to sneak into the forbidden section and steal this book.”

"Why do you need that book?” Trixie ask.

“Let’s just say this book will play a key role in returning my queen to her former glory.” Descent said as his eyes glowed red. ”Now let’s get down to business.”
….
End of chapter 3


Author's Note

Sorry for the later update everyone but I had some writers block when writing this story.

Anyhow time for my fact of the day.

In this chapter applejack ,pinkie pie and Fluttershy did acts to ask them worthy to sue the elements. Applejack told the honest truth about not letting anything bad happen to her. Fluttershy show kindness to rainbow dash after he gotten injure and finally pinkie pie help twilight overcome a scary moment through laughter.

Fun fact this line here is a reference to pinkie laugh song:

From the story:
”As my grandmother always said, the best way to deal with your fear is to just laugh, and their will disappear. Hahaha.”

From the song:
I'd hide under my pillow
From what I thought I saw
But Granny Pie said that wasn't the way
To deal with fears at all

She said, "Pinkie, you gotta stand up tall
Learn to face your fears
You'll see that they can't hurt you
Just laugh to make them disappear."

Another fun fact this line here was a reference to the cliff scene between twilight and applejack:

From the story:

“I promised you that it would be alright, and that is the honest truth.” Applejack said.

From the show:

Now listen here. What I'm sayin' to you is the honest truth. Let go, and you'll be safe.

Pinkie pie ability to pull things out of her hat was a reference to how in canon pinkie seem to have the ability to pull things from her hair and the idea for the bazooka pinkie pie use was also inspired by friendship is magic where the weapon that pinkie pie use in that story was also a bazooka.

Also pinkie pie having powers is to reference to pinkie pie cartoony nature. Basically her powers is base on the old rubber horse animation where the characters in those animation could stretch their body parts to unnatural heigh and enlarging them by blowing air into them.

The way pinkie pie fight using her powers was inspired by luffy from one piece.

Trixie gaining a magical item that enhanced her magic is a reference to the time she use the alicorn amulet which is a magical item that boost her magical power to a great degree.

Anyhow that’s it for now as I am going to work on my guardian of harmony story now and if I am lucky I might be able to get out by this week.Don’t forget to leave a comment on what you think of my chapter so far.

Next Chapter
