In a strange house, Slade was looking at some moniters. And he was doing so with glee. For the past few days, he has been going to various timelines of the Friendship is Magic and attacking every known creature imaginable.

In one of these, he attacked Spike. In a different one, he attacked one of the florist sisters. In a third, he attacked Rarity. In a fourth, he attacked a green dragoness. In a fifth, he attacked Mayor Mare. In a sixth, he attacked Luna. In a seventh, he attacked Rainbow Dash. In an eighth, he attacked Twilight. The list goes on, and on, and on.

However, he did not expect many of these realities to band together to find his house. And that's exactly what they did. "...Well, well, well, look who's decided to pay me a visit."

Many versions of Twilight and her friends arrived at Slade's house, where they were soon up against what looked to be Slade himself.

"Well, well, well, look who's decided to pay me a visit." Slade? said.

"You're through Slade. You're not going to get away this time." One of the Twilights said; this one had Hamtaro and Bijou on her back.

"We've managed to ham-team with a lot of the realities you've been to." Hamtaro said.

"Ha. You really think you can stop me?" Slade? asked.

"There's a lot of us, and only one of you. Do the math, buster." One of the Scootaloo said.

"I say we just beat him up." One of the Rainbow Dash said.

They attacked without waiting, only to soon reveal the slade before them was a robot. And there were several that soon took it's place as the real Slade came up on a moniter.

"My house; my rules!" Slade said with an evil smirk.

"What was with all your attacks anyways?" A different Scootaloo asked; this one having Sparkle on her back.

"And why was it only our universe?" A Sweetie Belle asked.

"Yeah, where's the motive?" A second Rainbow Dash asked.

That version of Rainbow Dash didn't even realize that she had just asked a very forbidden question, as music began to start up.

My dear guests, you are seeking my motive?
There is no motive for despair!

So come on and stay a while as I share with you
the who, what, when, where, why, and how
of my genius plan!

Our story opens
on a soldier coming home.

Now cut to him standing over his parents
It was a struggle

As I watched them
bleed from their bodies
so I instead I came up with a way to prolong suffering in the future!

I was obsessed
I couldn't stop.
I wouldn't stop!
Until everything drowned in the despair that I created!

So I made a decision;
to sell my services.

I'd make my victims watch
as I painted the room red!

Patience is a virtue
Good things come to those who wait...

Proverbs uttered by utter fools,
I'll do anything it takes!

Are you ready for trouble?
Gotcha Binge Spending!
You're stuck with Slade Johnson.
You can't stop me...
from cooking up this instant classic;
YOU AND YOUR DEATHS WILL LOOK FANTASTIC!

The red carpet is rolled out...
Come and get your tickets!
Before they're all sold out.

Don't wanna miss this moment
when this bar becomes full

There was a quick transition to a bar filling up.

It'll drown all of
Reality in my personal...
Despair...
(evil laughter)

(Ladies and gentlemen)
(Excuse the interruption...)
(The following message goes out to the stars of FiM:)
(The MLP4 Crew!)
(And we're rolling let's go!)

You wanna know why I chose you?

YOU WANNA KNOW WHY I CHOSE YOU?!

'Cuz you're the happiest show
That I've ever seen;
So if you fall into despair
It'll effect everything!
(Evil Laughter)

Are you ready for trouble?
Gotcha Binge Spending!
You're stuck with Slade Johnson.
You can't stop me...
from cooking up this instant classic;
YOU AND YOUR DEATHS WILL LOOK FANTASTIC!

The red carpet is rolled out...
Come and get your tickets!
Before they're all sold out.

Don't wanna miss this moment
when this bar becomes full
It'll drown all of
Reality in my personal--

The real slade suddenly popped up out of nowhere.

GRAB A SEAT AND LET'S SEAL THE DEAL!

When that bar becomes full
It'll drown all of reality
In my personal despair!!!
(Evil Laughter)

And Scene!

The real slade had gotten lost amongst his robot doubles, and managed to escape via a conveyor belt. "After him!" A second Twilight said and followed the conveyor belt with everyone else.
