Equestria Girls: Adventures in Dragon Land (Season 2)

One sunny afternoon in Canterlot City, the vibrant colors of the day mirrored the excitement that buzzed inside Lily Pad’s house. Pinkie Pie had gathered her friends—Sunset Shimmer, Sci-Twi and Spike—for a delightful day filled with laughter and astonishing surprises.

Today, the spotlight was on Lily Pad, the shy yet talented friend whose skills were about to shine brighter than ever. “Watch this!” Pinkie Pie exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm.

With an exaggerated flourish, she stepped aside to give Lily the stage. The room filled with anticipation as Lily Pad took a deep breath, her pastel hair bouncing in rhythm. With a confident flick of her wrists, Lily began juggling colorful cupcakes, each one perfectly balanced in the air. The wrappers, seemingly animated, peeled off in a flurry of magic, floating gracefully to the floor as the cupcakes found their way into Lily’s mouth in a delightful display of acrobatics.

The others erupted in cheers and laughter, Spike barking joyfully, his tail wagging fervently. “Wow, Lily! That’s amazing!” Sunset said, her eyes wide with admiration. She had always known Lily was special, but witnessing her talents firsthand was something entirely different. It sure appears that Lily had indeed inherited some fourth-wall breaking abilities from Pinkie ever since she had gotten her dragon badge after the first day at Canterlot High.

The air buzzed with energy and the room felt alive with possibility. But Lily wasn’t done yet. With a gleam in her eye, she demonstrated her next trick. “Now, for my disappearing act!” she announced, twirling playfully.

With a swift motion, she crouched down and vanished, leaving only a ripple in the air behind her. The friends gasped in unison, their mouths agape. Just as quickly, Lily reappeared atop the kitchen counter, a cheeky grin on her face. “Over here!” she laughed and confetti erupted from her hairband like fireworks, filling the room with a colorful shower of joy.

Sci-Twi, ever the scientist, scribbled frantically in her notebook, trying to decipher the physics behind Lily’s antics. “How are you doing that? It’s like you’re bending the rules of space!” she exclaimed, her curiosity piqued.

Lily, still balancing on the counter, shrugged playfully. “I don’t know! I just feel it, like the magic flows through me!” She spun around, sending another burst of confetti into the air and the friends erupted into giggles, their laughter echoing off the walls. Suddenly, Pinkie gets an idea.

“How about we show our dragon friends Lily’s tricks?” Pinkie asked.

“Yeah! They are going to be so excited.” Lily Pad cheered.

“Okay, sure. Why not?” Sunset answered as Spike barked in agreement.

“This could be my chance to prove that Pinkie gave some of her geode magic to Lily.” Sci-Twi whispered to herself.

With that, the girls and Spike went to Lily’s room, put their dragon badges on and grabbed Lily’s scale to hold it together. “I wish, I wish, with all my heart, to fly with Dragons, in a land apart!” They all recited in unison as the dragons on Lily’s walls flew off, swirled around them all and off they went!

In Dragon Land, there was a Mexican fiesta going on. Ord was blindfolded and is getting set to hit a piñata that Zak and Wheezie are holding up with a rope/pulley system. Cassie was finished spinning Ord around just in time for the girls and Spike to rematerialize.

“This piñata feels funny.” Ord chuckled, feeling Pinkie’s hair (he is still blindfolded).

“Silly, billy! I'm not a piñata.” Pinkie exclaimed.

“She’s just Pinkie being Pinkie.” Sci-Twi laughs as Ord takes off his blindfold and sees that the girls and Spike have indeed arrived.

“You're here!” Ord cheered.

“Yeah. We can’t let you have fun without us.” Sunset explained.

“You're just in time for the fiesta.” Zak explained.

“Parties! I love parties! They're so looney-ballooney!” Wheezie giggled.

“Hey, you know me so well! I love parties too!” Pinkie cheered.

“Are you hungry?” Cassie asks.

“Yeah.” Pinkie replied.

“Me, too. I could use something good to eat.” Spike exclaimed as the others nodded in agreement.

With that, the girls, Spike and the dragons race to the table. On the table is a bowl of chips, guacamole, salsa, cheese, burritos, etc. Spike gets some chips for his serving. Everyone was really enjoying their lunch, but Lily was feeling otherwise.

“These burritos are kind of messy.” Lily complained. “I prefer I’d add confetti and sprinkles to my burritos.”

“That's because you're not eating it the right way. You need to do it more like me. Like this...” Sunset complained and explained as she showed Lily her burrito in its original rightful appearance. “Besides, I like burritos the way everyone else does.”

“My way works too.” Lily said.

“Oh, boy. I sense some tension going on between Sunset and Lily.” Spike whispered as Sci-Twi leaned over to him.

“I know. We can't just let a little situation get between them.” Sci-Twi replied.

Lily and Sunset start arguing back about their burritos (Lily likes them with sprinkles while Sunset likes them regularly). Eventually, they stop.

“I wish you would do things the way I do them.” Sunset whispered as Pinkie comforted her.

“Don’t worry, Sunny. Don’t let little things get to you.” Pinkie said.

“I know. It’s just that I don’t like it when everyone does things different from the way I intend for them to do.” Sunset explained.

Suddenly, she hears a little meow from the bush. It turns out it’s coming from a yellow cat with blue spots.

“What was that?” Pinkie asked as Lily quietly approached the little cat. She was trying to call the cat out, but she’s just dog whistling.

“What's happening?” Cassie asked as she, Ord, Zak and Wheezie approached them.

“Lily is trying to get the kitty to come out, but she's doing it wrong.” Sunset explained.

“That's the only way I can do it.” Lily complained.

“The cat'll never come out to that silly sound.” Sci-Twi explained.

“Yeah, I do know it attracts dogs. Like me.” Spike replied.

Eventually, after just seconds of Lily dog whistling, the cat came out and it landed on Lily’s arms.

“Woah! Lily, look at the cat. It has…” Sunset began.

“Two heads!” Pinkie and Lily continued in unison.

“Oh, a two-headed cat? No way!” Spike yelled as he began to growl, scaring the cats.

“Spike! Control yourself. Calm down.” Sci-Twi commands as Spike does just that.

“Sorry, Twi. It’s just that dogs have a long history of with cats.” Spike explained.

Lily starts petting the cat, but on the belly/back. “What's your name?” She asks. One head of the creature replied with a mew.

“Hi, Me. I'm Lily and these are my friends.” Lily replied as she pets the creature.

“...and what's your name?” Pinkie asks as the other head of the creature replied with a *reow*.

“Oh, I am sorry. Am I hurting you?” Pinkie asked in worry as the head let out another *reow*.

After seconds, Lily gets what the creature is saying.

“Oh, I get it. The cat's name is Meow.” Lily exclaimed as Sunset approaches.

“Lily, you're not doing it right. Cats like to be petted on top of their heads.” Sunset explained as she gently pets one head between the ears.

Suddenly, the creature starts giving Lily little kitty licks on her face. Suddenly, she feels tingly as the creature runs off.

“Woah! Lily, are you all right?” Ord asked in concern.

“Yeah. The magic of friendship will shine.” Lily replied as Sunset gets confused and everybody goes back to the table.

Sunset just shrugs it off and was glad Lily was doing things the right way. Just minutes later, the group is beginning to sense that something strange happened to Lily.

“Uh, is it just our imagination or is something strange going on here?” Zak asks himself.

“Lily seems different.” Ord said.

“Yeah. She’s not acting like herself anymore.” Cassie explained.

“She’s acting just like-- Like--” Sci-Twi said.

“Like Sunset!” Everyone sans Lily and Sunset exclaimed in unison.

“And not just that, she knows the TRUE meaning of friendship.” Sci-Twi said.

“Lily, are you feeling okay?” Sunset asks in concern.

“A-Okay.” Lily said.

“Uh, maybe we should talk to Quetzal.” Pinkie suggested.

With that, the girls, Spike and the dragons head to Quetzal’s classroom to learn about what had happened to Lily.

“…and then there were sparkles and the cat ran away and Lily looked all funny.” Ord explained.

“...and Lily started acting differently. Not like Lily anymore. Just like Sunset.” Sci-Twi continued.

“...and she starts to learn about friendship and the teachings of Princess Twilight and Princess Celestia.” Sunset said.

“Why don't we look in the Big Storybook?” Quetzal suggested as he brings out his storybook and turns a couple of pages. A hologram of the same cat that had changed Lily popped up. “Does this look familiar?” he asks.

“Yeah. That's the cat.” Pinkie exclaimed.

“Not just any cat, that is Me-Ow, the Copy Cat.” Quetzal explained.

“The Copy Cat?” Zak asks.

“Si, niños. In Dragon Land, the Copy Cat comes when somebody wants someone else to do things exactly their way.” Quetzal continues.

“Oh, no. It's all my fault. I wanted Lily to do things just like me.” Sunset admitted as Pinkie comforted her.

“...and as soon as Me-Ow licked Lily, I'm afraid your wish came true.” Quetzal finished.

“Oh, that explains how Lily changed!” Sci-Twi exclaimed. “...and Sunset, have you ever heard the saying; “Be careful what you wish for, otherwise you might get it.” she asked.

“I knew that cat was trouble!” Spike huffed.

“I don't like my wish, because she doesn't do anything like Lily anymore. How do I get Lily to stop copying me?” Sunset asks.

“The only way is to have Me-Ow lick her again.” Quetzal answered.

“But the Copy Cat ran away.” Ord complained.

“Then you must find Me-Ow, but finding Meow can be hard because it can change colors and blend into its surroundings.” Quetzal explained.

“Like a chameleon?” Cassie asks.

“Exactly. Just like a chameleon.” Quetzal answered.

“What are we waiting for?” Wheezie asks.

“The search is on.” Zak cheered.

“Definitely." Sunset repiled

“Definitely!" Lily copies.

“Oh, boy.” sighed Sunset.

A couple minutes later, the group decided to have a plan to get Lily back to normal.

“Come on, Lily. We should search the Dandelion Forest.” Sunset said.

“Good idea, Sunset. Great idea! You always know exactly what to do. Your way is the best way. The right way. The only way!” Lily said.

“Stop it, Lily!" Sunset ordered.

“That’s a good idea!" Lily said, as it annoyed Sunset when she rolled her eyes and groaned in annoyance.

“Spike, Wheezie and I will search through Mushroom Meadow.” Zak said.

“Twi, Cassie and I will look near Turtle Rock.” Ord said.

“I’ll go with Sunset and Lily to the Dandelion Forest.” Pinkie exclaimed.

At Mushroom Meadow, Zak, Wheezie and Spike were looking for Meow.

“Me?” Zak cried.

“Ow? Meow?” Wheezie cried out.

“Here little kitty!” Zak cried.

“Where are you, Copy Cat?” Wheezie calls.

“Come out, come out, wherever you are!” Zak cried.

Suddenly, Meow appears from behind a purple and blue mushroom, having turned two toned lilac to match.

“Me. Ow.” Meow meows as Zak and Wheezie hear and come right toward it.

“There you are!” Wheezie exclaims as she tries to catch it, but it runs away.

“Come back, Copy Cat!!!” Zak yelled.

“Meow!!!” Wheezie yelled.

“Man, the cat got away.” Spike complained.

At Turtle Rock, Ord, Cassie and Sci-Twi were looking for Meow.

“Meow! I have some tasty treats for you! Snack time, Copy Cat!" Cassie called out.

“We have rainbow corn and dragonberry juice! Come and get it!” Ord cried.

“I’ve got some cat food for you!” Sci-Twi called out.

Suddenly, Meow appears from behind the rock having turned green and blue to match the grass while Ord slurps some juice.

“It's no use. The cat is gone.” Cassie complained.

“Now what?” Sci-Twi asked. She started to think until a lightbulb popped in her head.

“Hey, Ord, throw some Dragon Corn in the sky. Maybe this will get the cat’s attention.” she asked.

Ord throws up the rainbow corn. Just then, Meow leaps at them into the air. Meow eats all the rainbow corn and runs off.

“..and so is my lunch.” Ord finished.

“I can’t believe it!” Sci Twi said.

At Dandelion Forest, Pinkie, Sunset and Copied Lily were looking for Meow, but to no luck.

“Here, kitty, kitty, kitty!” Sunset and Lily called out in unison.

“I have this little squeaky toy for you!” Pinkie called, pulling a rubber bone out her hair.

“Uh, Pinkie. I don’t think cats play with those. They’re more for dogs.” Sunset said.

“Oh, what do you know!” Pinkie replied, squeezing the bone in her hand, laughing and finding the squeaks satisfying as they continued on their search. Unfortunately, they have no luck.

“Meow's not over here.” Sunset said, unaware that Meow is atop a dandelion and blending in with it.

“I don’t even see him anywhere here either!” Pinkie cried in disappointment.

“What do you think we should do?” Sunset asked.

“Whatever you say, Sunset.” Lily said.

“Let's see. How did you call the cat before? I think it was like this…” Sunset said as she made the purring sound Lily did earlier, but to no luck.

“It’s not working. Now what?” Sunset sighs.

“You decide. Your way is the right way.” Lily said.

“That’s not true, Lily. I don’t always know better. You do a lot of things even better than me. Oh Lily, I wish you were yourself again.” Sunset sighed just when the rest of girls and the other dragons arrived, feeling very down. “Did you find the Copy Cat?” asked Sunset.

“No, but it found my lunch.” Ord replied.

“It's hopeless!” Zak whined.

“Oh, Zaky, don't be such a pouty-doubty.” Wheezie said, comforting him.

“I'm sure Meow's around somewhere.” Cassie said just as Meow is heard meowing and the group sees him atop one of the dandelions.

“There it is! Up there! Stuck in the tree! Here, Meow!” Sunset called.

“Here, Meow!” Lily cried.

“It's okay, just climb down! You'll be safe with us!” Cassie responded, only for Meow to whine.

“Oh. Nothing's working.” Zak said.

“I don’t like seeing cats stuck on trees and giant dandelions.” Pinkie cried.

“How else can we get the cat to come down? Think. Think.” Sunset thought.

“The last time Lily got Meow to come down, he did something like this…” Ord said as he made a buzzing sound.

“I already tried that, but it didn't work. “Sunset said.

“No, no, no. It was more like this…” Wheezie said while she made a scattering noise which caused Meow to whine again while covering its ears.

“No, Wheezie! That's not it at all! It was much softer and sweeter.” Zak said.

“I think Zak is right.” Cassie agrees.

“Yeah. We need to come up with a way to bring the cat down.” Spike responded.

“I have an idea! Lily, let's play a game.” Sunset said.

“This is no time for games!” Zak said.

“Sure it is! It's time to play the What Would Lily Do to Get the Copy Cat Down from the Tree game.” Sunset replied.

“Looooooove it!” Wheezie said.

Lily would probably make that kitty calling sound. How does it go again? Sunset asks as she makes the purring sound; Meow hears and perks up.

“Can you play the game, Lily?” Sunset asked.

“Sure I can!” Lily responded as she purrs; Meow meows excitedly and jumps off the dandelion into Lily's arms.

“I got you!” Lily said.

“You did it, Lily! You got the Copy Cat to come down!” Sunset cheered as Meow meows again. “...and I think Meow likes the way you used to pet it. Like this…” she said as she pets Meow's back, while Meow licks Lily's face again.

“That tickles!” Lily giggled as she put Meow back down and went into her trance-like state again. Once Meow leaves, Lily wakes up and rubs her eyes.

“Lily, are you okay?” Sunset asked.

“Sure.” Lily responded.

“You didn’t say ‘definitely’.” Sunset said.

“Why would I say that?” Lily asked, looking confused.

“Oh, no reason.” Sunset said innocently.

“She’s Lily again!” Zak cheered.

“Well, that’s a relief.” Sci Twi said.

“Yeah.” Spike responded.

“Let’s just say that today is a day of mimicry-filled madness and mayhem!” Pinkie joked with the others laughing.

With that, it was time for Sunset, Sci-Twi, Pinkie, Lily Pad and Spike to head home. “I wish, I wish, to use this rhyme, to go back home, until next time.” they recited in unison as they went home after a confusing day. They all appear back in Lily’s room.

“Well, today sure beats me trying to learn the origin of Lily’s sudden fourth-wall breaking powers.” Sci-Twi said.

“I can tell you, Twi!” Pinkie said.

“Really? Do tell!” Sci-Twi exclaimed, getting her notebook and pen out.

“Just kidding!” Lily spoke as she and Pinkie laughed.

“Ah. you got me good!” Sci-Twi chuckled as the others laughed along.

The End
