In the foggy mountains where the mandrill's fortress, general Scorch is the first to step out of the portal with a sinister smirk on his face, but he wasn't alone when there are three more who are also the dark master's offsprings, Sorch's siblings stepping out the portal right behind him. The first one is a huge male dark brown dragon with blind eye and metal rib cage chest armor. The second is a slender black dragoness with a long razor sharp claws and a beauty look on her face. And lastly, the fourth is a young violet teenage dragoness, like same age as Spike. The commander approaches to them and said in greeting his generals with a bow. "My generals, it has been too long, I welcome you all in our humble prayers."

"Indeed it has commander." General Scorch said. "Tell me, have you and your followers successfully capturing four dragons and the Champion in your grasp?"

The commander was stumped in fear to hear a question that general Scorch ask, afraid to say the news from a long ago. "Y-yes... we've got them all, but... one dragon... has escaped in our finger tips... and the egg is... nowhere to be found." He said to regret telling him the truth, he causing the dark gray dragon to growl in anger and gripping his hands tightly. "But not to worry, I can assure you that we- GRAGH!"

Suddenly, the commander's words were cut off because general Scorch swiftly grabbed his neck and lifting him up slowly. "You dare failed the mission what you're supposed to do, you sicken me. Not only have you failed me, you also failed the Dark Master too." General Scorch angrily said.

"N-no my general, I swear on my life it will never happen again." The commander begged him, but he made him even more angrier while his siblings are watching like they enjoying the show. Until, general Scorch let go of the commander's neck. Coughing and heavy breathing to catch his breath of knowing of his place. He should be very lucky that his general spared his life.

"You should count yourself lucky. Now that we are here, I will issue the command." General Scorch said. He sees a huge map of Equestria, seeing all the circles and cross mark of every locations that the mandrills have been. "Equestria huh, give me every informations I should know all."

"Of course my lord." The commander said when he's headed next to him, clearing his throat and began to report. "After the time we come to this world, we have captured three dragons, but one escape along with the egg. We kept searching for many years for them, but nowhere to be seen. So we send three dragon to three locations where they're never escape in our fortresses."

"And yet you mere monkeys still failed to find one pathetic dragon and the champion, how humiliating." The black dragoness said in mocking. "I was right all along brother, those monkeys are very useless because their brains are the size of the pebble."

"Quite Hex, if you wish to know your place." Scorch said to threaten, but it wasn't important when he still paying attention to the map, until his curiosity had shown him a big circle marked of the Dragonlands. "Commander, tell me more of this Dragonland right there." He pointed at it.

"The Dragonland is a kingdom where all the dragons are, but they are different than those from Avalar." The commander explained to him, but seeing him smile on his face like he's to something.

"When there's dragon... then, the champion is among them." Scorch said when he believed like putting all the clues together. "I think its time for us to pay them a visit."

....

Six days later, the Harmony Festival has started on Canterlot in the afternoon. Every creatures are very eager to enjoy this place for few hours. The music, games for the prices, having foods and sweets, and lots of fun. As soon as everyone are remain inside the festival, the only few ones who is outside were Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie. They have already arrived to Canterlot in about eight minutes or more, waiting for Twilight and Spike to show up for short minutes. "... Ugh! Where can they be, we've been waiting for so long and I can't take it." Rainbow Dash said impatiently while she fly back and forth.

"Ya need to relax Rainbow, ya should try to be patient like the rest of us." Applejack said.

"She's right dear, I'm sure they will be in our presence." Rarity agreed with a apple farmer. "But I have to say, it is quite splendid to see them for so long."

"Yeah, as soon as we all are together, we can do lots and lots of fun times." Pinkie Pie said in excitement while she's hopping around. However, a party pony stopped hopping because she spotted Twilight in fifty feet away, happy gasping. "I spy with my little eye, somepony has a horn and a wings!"

The others have paying attention to Pinkie Pie for what she seeing, until they've figured it out when they now also spotted them approaching. Their faces changes to happy and then speed walking towards Twilight. "Hey girls, you've all finally came here, it's so great to see you all." Princess Twilight said while everyone gets a hug to each other.

"Twilight darling, it is so wonderful to see you both for so long." Rarity said before they all let go of each other.

"So how were girls been doing back in Ponyville?" Twilight asked curiously.

"Oh it went mighty fine for all of us. Well, mostly we have our few good days and bad days in most of the times, but we were doin just fine. What about ya, how are yer handling things you've done?" Applejack said.

"It was okay, ever since Celestia and Luna are retired of their duties as Princess, I had to do is fulfill my accomplishments, sometimes it can't be easy. But with their guidance, things are going great to me and Spike." Twilight said.

"Speaking of Spike, where is he? I thought he is with you." Fluttershy said, wondering where that teenage dragon is.

"Hey girls!" A voice calling out to them, and it appears to be Spike with Sparx flying towards the Mane Six with happy look on his face. "Sorry for being late, did I kept you waiting?"

"Not anymore you're not, you've came just in time." Rainbow Dash said.

" Yay, now that were all here together, let's go in the Festival and HAVE LOTS OF FUN!" Pinkie Pie shout happily while pulling out the confetti cannon, causing the others to laugh.

Inside the Harmony Festival, everyone is having a good time of their life once they have plenty of funtime. The Mane Six and Spike have their separate ways to do what they liked to try. Applejack and Rainbow Dash are competing each other by doing a horse shoe toss, of course they've always ended up a tie without giving up. Pinkie Pie got herself a very big cotton candy with lots of snacks and sweets, everyone is looking at her strangely but that's Pinkie Pie for them. Fluttershy made some new friends with a cute little gold fishes in the fishing game, and they all seems to like her too. Spike have won the price a lavender teddy bear and pass it to Rarity as a gift. The white unicorn accepted the teenage dragon's generous offer and ended up kissing him in the cheek which makes him blush, causing the princess of friendship to giggle and rolled her eyes.

For a few hours later, the show is about to begin when everyone is in seats and face foward to the stage. The Mane Six and Spike got themselves into the best seats to see the view from above. A random pony appeared out of curtain on the stage, giving a speech to them. "Hello everypony and every creature big and small. Before we starts this show, tonight this is the story about Equestria's most famous heroes we've ever known. I called this show 'The adventures of Twilight Sparkle and her friends'." She said when the audience are clapping in joyful, including the Mane Six were anxious to see.

The curtains opened to revealed the art work background, light flashes from above, and young children actors dressed as the Mane Six and the rest of main characters. The gentle music started and one little filly began to say the story tell. "Once upon a time, there was a a unicorn named Twilight Sparkle, a pupil of princess Celestia. She gave her a task to travel to Ponyville for her first lesson. When Twilight Sparkle made it there, she met five ponies who are honesty, loyalty, generosity, kindness, and laughter. On the dreadful night, Nightmare Moon has return from a thousand years. But a miracle happened, Twilight Sparkle learned she is not alone because she has friends and friendships is magic. With the power of the Elements of Harmony, Nightmare Moon has turned back to princess Luna. Two princesses are reunited with once again with happiness and love all thanks to Twilight Sparkle and her friends."

The audience clapped for the ending part of the show while the curtains are closing. The Mane Six were surprise this part of it from the good times in the first place. "Wow, this is incredible, this is a good part how I first met with you girls when I arrived Ponyville." Princess Twilight said when she'd remembered.

"Yep, it feels like it was yesterday." Applejack said and the others agreed when they all nodded.

"Uuh uuh, here comes another one." Pinkie Pie said with popcorn in her mouth, pointing at the stage when it's first the next show.

Each time passes when everyone is enjoyed watching the parts of the scene for what the Mane Six has done in their times, like Discord is causing chaos, the changelings invaded Canterlot, how Twilight turns into alicorn, battle against Tirek, returning the crystal heart, travel through all alternative times, and every adventures their heroes did. All of them were still enjoying it, most of them ended up falling asleep because the show was to long.

On the moment, Spike hears the sounds of flapping coming from somewhere else, causing this teenage dragon to turned his head around and spotted something in the sky. "Uh, Twilight." He said to her which makes the princess of friendship to answer his response. He didn't need to ask her because Twilight noticed something what Spike is looking, along with the others also saw. The sounds of flapping are getting louder that cause everyone and actors to what's it coming from until now.

"What in Equestria are they, birds?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"No, I don't think those aren't birds Rainbow." Twilight answered, looking at up close a familiar creatures with wings. "Wait, these are... dragons?!"

Many dragons came from the landed safely in full speed on the ground, but the look of fear in their faces and hurt. The Mane Six and Spike doesn't know what is happening and why they're coming here in Canterlot, but they have to attend to find out. "Princess Twilight, help!" A voice calling out to them, and would appears to be an orange dragoness named Smolder, rushing towards the Mane Six and Spike while caring an injured Dragonlord Ember.

"Oh my gosh, Ember!" Spike said in worry for his friend while Sparx and the others following him.

"Smolder, what is happened to her and why have you and the dragons comes here?" Twilight asked, seeing the cyan dragon injury with one broken horn missing.

"The Dragonland... has been invaded by some... rogue dragons and took over our home. Please help us." Smolder said for the princess of friendship aid.

And so, in Spike's thoughts left with two questions, he is wondering who are these rogue dragon that Smolder was talking about, and why did they hurt Dragonlord Ember and took over their homeland. All these answers will soon to come for the time being. All the good time of peace has been turned into bad times when all things have changed now.
