My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Monster Mash-Up Musical

Elsewhere, that noon, the Rainbooms’ tour bus drives through Barren Bog, where the Grimwood Girls went on a field trip to before. The sky is overcast. Minimal’s caravan trailer is still hitch to the back bumper. Henry’s motorcycle discreetly rides a little ways behind them. In the bus, Twilight is at the edge of her seat, the open spell book in her lap, aiming her wand at an empty bottle of fizzy apple cider on the floor of the bus. Sibella observes behind her in their bus seat.

"Aloft Elevar." She said, trying cast a spell, but nothing happens. She tries again. "Aloft Elevar!" she said with concentration, but still nothing happens. She sighs with frustration. "I can’t seem to get this levitation spell to work." She said with worry. The page she’s on shows a levitation spell with the magic words “Aloft Elevar. She flips through the pages until she stops at one that has a lightning spell. The magic words say "Voltar Thundasir." "Maybe I could try something else like... arcane lightning?" she suggested.

"Uh... I don’t think you should. I mean, using the hardest spell in the book?" Sibella said, unsure, as flips the book back to the levitation spell page. "You better stay with the easy ones for now."

"But it's not working. Am I saying it wrong?" Twilight wondered.

Sibella shook her head. "Oh no, you said it right. But for the spell to work, you need to speak from your heart's fire." She instructed.

"My what?" Twilight asked, confused.

"Your heart’s fire," Sibella explained, her green eyes gleaming as she recalled the lesson. "And each spell has an instruction with a rhyme. 'To lift with grace, speak from your heart's fire, and see the object rise higher and higher.' So you have to speak with passion. Don’t hold back."

Twilight looked at her with renewed resolve. She took a deep breath, aimed her wand at the cider bottle again, and called out, "Aloft Elevar!" But again, nothing happened. Her frustration boiled over, and she groaned in annoyance.

Sensing her friend’s struggle, Sibella turned to the seat behind them. "Uh, Enid? A little help?"

In the seat behind them with Trixie and Rainbow Dash, hatless and her magenta hair still in a bun, Enid takes out her own wand and aims it at the bottle. "Aloft Elevar!" she said as the tip of her wand glows blue and so does the cider bottle. Enid levitates it with ease. The tip of her wand guides the bottle around the bus. She carefully lands it back on the same spot it was. "Alright, Twilight. Your turn," she said.

Twilight nods and focuses hard on her wand and the cider bottle. "Aloft Elevar!" she shouted with all her might as the tip of Twilight’s wand glows purple and so does the cider bottle. Twilight’s finally levitating it. She guides it around the bus and the other Rainbooms and Grimwood Girls are amazed. As she drives, Sunset gazes at the levitation process in the rearview mirror above the dashboard. Turning back to the road, the new swamp creature smiles proudly for Twilight. The new witch levitates the bottle over to Applejack, who sits with Elsa. The human-turned-Frankenstein catches the bottle and smiles at Elsa. Twilight grins.

"I did it! I finally got it right! I did witch magic!" she exclaimed, her face filled with pure joy.

Sibella clapped her gloved hands, her fangs gleaming in delight. "That was fangtastic, Twilight!"

Twilight smiles appreciatively at Sibella, who smiles back at her. In the seat in front of them, Lagoona sits at the end of her seat with Tanis and Rarity sitting next to her. The daughter of the Gill-man watches Sunset at the wheel and the road up ahead. She’s still giving Sunset directions. Lagoona’s eyes go wide. They’re finally there. "Sunset! Stop the bus. We’re here," Lagoona said suddenly.

Sunset brings the tour bus to a complete stop. Henry quietly stops his motorcycle and eavesdrops from a nearby tree. Minimal gets out of her caravan trailer and the Rainbooms and the rest of the Grimwood Girls get off the tour bus. They arrive at the foot of a tall, steep, rocky mountain with a winding rocky path leading up to... Castle Revolta! The place where Revolta, the Witch of the Web who tried to revoltize the Grimwood Girls a few years ago lived. The Rainbooms were shocked to see the large mountain top castle, especially since it's somehow still in one piece after it got burned down when the Grimwood Girls defeated Revolta in the movie they debuted in.

"The Castle of Barren Bog?!" Rarity gasped, her eyes wide with disbelief.

"But this is where you first met Revolta!" Pinkie Pie whimpered.

"And defeated her!" Rainbow Dash added with concern.

"How is the castle still standing? I thought it was destroyed." Fluttershy wondered.

“Didn’t it explode after y’all escaped?” Applejack asked.

Sibella gazes at Phantasma, Elsa, Tanis, Winnie, and Matches. They, followed by Enid, Galactica, Lagoona, and Minimal gesture for Sibella to explain. The daughter of Count Dracula chuckles sheepishly. "Yeah, well, after we graduated from Miss Grimwood’s school, we used half the money we made for Ghouls’ Funland to rebuild the castle, and open it up as a Monsterdom museum."

"A museum?" Twilight’s said curiously. "Museum? Huh. Sounds like my kind of thing."

Sunset turns to Sibella. "So we’re meeting Zoe and the Wild Cats here?"

Sibella grinned, her fangs gleaming in the dim light. "You bat we are."

As the Grimwood Girls walk up the rocky winding path to the castle, the Rainbooms walk up after them. At the tree he’s hiding behind, Henry takes off his helmet and secretly walk up behind the Rainbooms’ tour bus, waiting for them to be a bit far from him so he can follow them into the castle. He discreetly walks far behind them up the rocky path. Much further back in the bog, looking on, Zoe gazes upon the large mountain-top castle. She’s wearing a black leather jacket with a high collar that is lined with a bright red interior. The jacket has an open, flowing tail that flares out slightly at the bottom. She’s also wearing black leggings, tall black knee-high boots, a belt with a metallic buckle, and a shiny necklace. Her black hair is short, edgy, and styled in a sharp, spiky manner. Stepping beside Zoe are 3 big cats: a jaguar, a tiger, and a lion. They are Jason, Thalia, and Leonard. Zoe smirks at her animal companions. "Alright, Wild Cats. This is where Sibella said to meet her and her friends," she declared as she climbs on top of Jason’s back. "Forward!" she called, and the 3 big cats start toward the mountain path leading up to Revolta’s old castle with Zoe riding on Jason’s back.

Later, the Rainbooms and the Grimwood Girls approach the castle steps leading to the large double doors at the entrance. The Rainbooms look up at the large imposing castle.

"Whoa! This place is humongous!" Starlight exclaimed. "Must have taken a long time to have this place rebuilt."

"Well, it wasn’t easy putting this place back together brick by brick." Galactica stated.

Elsa chuckled lightly. "Yeah." The Rainbooms and the Grimwood Girls start walking up the steps to the doors to Castle Revolta. Matches walks by Sibella. The dragon turns to Spike. The dog is walking by Twilight and still wearing his skeleton costume.

"Hey, Spike," Matches said, catching Spike's attention. "First time we came here, I helped the Girls’ human gym teacher and his talking Great Dane save the Grimwood Girls from becoming evil by Revolta. The padlock on her door was fireproof. My fire breath didn’t leave a single scorch mark on it that day."

"Really?" Spike replied, dumbfounded. Matches nods. "A fireproof lock? Huh. What’ll they think of next?"

They approach the front door of the humongous castle. A human security guard is at the large double doors. "Greetings, ladies," he said flatly.

"Hey. We’re to meet with a friend of ours. She’s on her way here," Sibella exclaimed.

The guard looks to a window to a basement office in the castle. In it, a middle aged man shakes his head at him and gives a thumbs down. The guard turns to the girls.

"Sorry. Castle’s closed," he said sternly.

The Rainbooms and Grimwood Girls look shocked and confused.

"'Closed'?" Applejack exclaimed "You got a sign up there above the door that says open from 6:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. and you’re tellin' us you’re CLOSED? Why?"

"None of your business," the guard replied. "Now go home and vacate the premises. No one comes when the office people are busy. Not now, not ever."

Enid sighed in annoyance. "Please, sir. This meeting is important! We have business to discuss."

"Like an expedition for a magical rock with elemental powers," Trixie added.

"NOT NOW, NOT EVER!" The guard yelled stubbornly, causing the girls to flinch. The man in the window watched with a sinister look. "Now go away! I’m not your puppet!" The guard demanded.

Hearing this, Tanis gets an idea. The little mummy child taps Rarity’s hand. The transformed human-turned-mummy Rainboom gazes down at the youngest Grimwood Girl.

"Rarity, I have an idea. Can you pick me up to face the guard?" Tanis requested.

"Of course, Tanis. But why?" Rarity inquired, her brow furrowing with curiosity.

"Just trust me. I know what to do," Tanis insisted.

Rarity exchanged a glance with the guard before nodding. "Alright, darling. Ready?" Tanis nods and Rarity lifts her, holding her at eye level with the baffled guard.

With a hypnotic tone, Tanis said, "You will let us in this castle." Her eyes glowed red, and soon the guard’s did as well. He stood motionless as Tanis’s eyes returned to their normal blue.

The two groups waited anxiously for the guard to respond. Finally, in a monotone voice, he spoke, "Yes, mistress. I will let you all into this castle." With that, he opened the large double doors, and the middle-aged man at the window watched in wide-eyed astonishment. "Welcome to Castle Revolta, VIPs," the guard announced.

Rarity gently sets Tanis down, a look of amazement on her face. "VIPs?! Oh, thank you, sir!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with delight. As they all file into the castle, Rarity glances at Tanis. "Fabulous job, Tanis. How did you do that?"

"Oh, mummies have hypnosis powers," Tanis replied modestly.

"You hypnotized the guard into letting us in?" Rarity asked, her admiration evident. Tanis nods, and Rarity gazes at the cute mummy child with huge eyes.

"Whoa! Way to go, Tanis!" Sibella praised.

"Smart!" Twilight Sparkle added enthusiastically.

"Great thinking!" Enid chimed in, her voice warm with approval.

"That was incredible," Sunset Shimmer said, impressed by Tanis’s quick thinking.

Tanis blushed beneath her wrappings, looking slightly shy. "Aww. It was nothing." She then gets her mind straight. "Now let’s get going. Zoe and the Wild Cats should be here any moment." With that, the two groups headed up the castle stairs.

Outside, the guard snaps out of it. He spots the open door and quickly closes them. The middle aged man leaves the window, looking serious. The guard looks around anxiously. A few distances away, Henry watches from behind a large boulder. The guard spots Zoe, Jason, Tahlia, and Leonard approaching. "Ugh. Now what?" he muttered to himself.

Zoe steps forward with an assertive confidence, greeting him with a smirk. "Greetings, sir. We’re here for a meeting with the Grimwood Girls. We were told to meet them here."

"You were told wrong. I suggest you go somewhere else to meet them. Anywhere but here," the guard retorted.

"Huh. A wise guy!" Zoe said irritated as she turned to Leonard, her lion companion, and commanded, "Leonard, make him talk."

The lion stalks over to the guard, who starts to look a bit nervous as Leonard comes closer. Leonard growls and bares his teeth at the guard, then acts more nicely to him and suddenly speaks! He voice deep and manly, he says "Hello, sir. Hi… uh… We’re looking for our friends, the Grimwood Girls. Have you by any chance…" The guard, startled and overwhelmed, swung his billy club at Leonard, not injuring him but clearly attempting to assert dominance. "...seen them?" the lion finished, his tone now edged with fear.

"Too soft," Zoe grumbled in annoyance. She gestures toward Tahlia, who steps forward.

Tahlia's voice was that of a middle-aged woman. "Out with it, you coward! We don’t have all day!" Tahlia demanded, her tone serious and threatening as she points her claw under the guard's chin. The guard screamed in terror and shrank back, shaken by her fierceness. Zoe facepalmed in irritation and threw her arms up in exasperation.

"Too hard!" she exclaimed in frustration, shaking her head as Tahlia offered a sheepish grin. Zoe motioned to Jason, who trotted up to the guard, who's now pale with fear.

"Hey, sir, we don’t want any trouble. We’re just trying to find the Grimwood Girls. Can you tell us where they are, please?" Jason asked, his youthful voice filled with charm.

The guard trembles in the corner from Tahlia’s words. "Th-th-th-th-they-they went inside the castle, up the stairs," he stuttered.

"Thank you, sir. That’ll be all," Jason replied, flashing a reassuring smile.

Zoe’s expression brightened as she turned to Jason. "Just right!" she said happily, giving his head a pat. The jaguar beamed at his friends, proud of his efforts.

"Nice work, Jason," Tahlia praised, her tone softening.

Leonard nodded in agreement. "You always know what to say."

Jason shrugged, a humble smile on his face. "Well, thanks. I try my best."

Zoe leads Jason, Tahlia, and Leonard inside the castle and the door closes. The guard still cowards in the corner, still frightened by the harshness Tahlia showed him. He clutches himself in fear. "Tiger… claws… threat… Make it stop… Make it stop…" he muttered under his breath, his breathing heavy as he rocked back and forth, haunted by the encounter. A few distances away, Henry emerges from his hiding spot to go find another way into Castle Revolta.
