Rise of Shade: Book 1 - Slade's Downfall

The ponies found themselves in an endless void; with some kind of large; undiscribable figure looming over them. They couldn't even see the thing's head. Hell, they could barely see past the figure's waist.

So, it seems that the anmoly was fixed before anyone else got invovled... a masculine sounding voice that gave off a sense of basically god-hood said. For that, I give my thanks...

"Who...are you?" One of the Twilight asked.

I'm afraid I cannot answer that question. Because most of you won't be able to remember the answer. In order to restore the damage that still exists, I must revert your universes back to how they were before Slade got involved with them. The god voice said. The being aboved looked like it moved and then most of the ponies vanished.

The only ones that remained, were the ones who came with the hamsters & Amethyst. "So...what about us then?" The remaining Scootaloo asked.

Due to certain things, I cannot remove Slade's influence from your world. Doing so, would undo way too much for your universe to remain stable. Therefor, I'll have to return you to your universe in a way to where there hasn't been any time passed since your departure. There is not much more I can do then that without resetting your entire universe. The god voice said.

"Will we...ever see you again? The remaining Twilight asked.

I pray that you never have to. The god voice answered before the figure moved again, the remaining ponies are blinded by an immense light again.

When everything comes to, the ponies are back where they were. "Wh-what did that god guy mean by Slade's influence being too much to remove him from our world?" Scootaloo asked.

"Uh...Scootaloo?" Diamond Tiara said, poitning at the pegasus filly's flank.

Scootaloo looked, and noticed that she now had a cutie mark: One of a heart with lightning bolt inside of it. "...Oh." She wasn't sure what to think about that. On one hand, she had a cutie mark now. On the other, she's not entirely sure what that entails exactly. But one thing is for sure: She can't wait to find out.
