It all began on a very windy day when Rarity was making some dresses for Sweetie, Fluttershy, Diamond and Silver. Vinyl was there rehearsing for the music while Principal Celestia was standing by, all dressed up for the special occasion: It’s the day that marks the coronation of Princess Kidoodle.

“Ooh, I love those dresses, Rarity!” Diamond exclaimed as Silver showed that she’s feeling the same and Sweetie twirls.

“Aw, thank you, darlings. It is a special day at Dragon Land today. It wouldn’t hurt to be all fancy for it.” Rarity explains as Fluttershy chuckles.

Principal Celestia is in her wedding dress while Vinyl Scratch is in her special outfit that she kept for occasions like this.

“Well, we’re ready to go.” Principal Celestia said.

“We’re ready too, darling.” Rarity replied as everyone nodded in agreement.

“Well, what are we waiting for? Let’s go to Dragon Land and meet up with our dragon friends to celebrate.” Diamond and Silver cheered in unison.

“Oh, take it easy, girls. I worked hard on those dresses.” Rarity chuckled.

“With that, the girls and principal went to Rarity’s room, put their dragon badges on and they each held the scale. “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 Rarity’s walls flew off, swirled around them all, and off they went!

In Dragon Land, the dragons were practicing for the coronation of Princess Kidoodle, while Wheezie was imitating the fanfare until the others arrived and rematerialized.

“You're just in time. Jump in line so we can practice for the royal parade.” Wheezie said.

“Yeah. We want it to look great for Princess Kidoodle.” Zak said. Everyone was walking and doing the practice, but the wind was too strong for the heroes to practice, this resulted in them falling down and almost injuring themselves.

“Sorry. It's really windy today.” Ord apologized.

“That’s okay, Ord.” Sweetie said.

“Yeah, let’s just keep practicing and stay with each other, so we don’t get hurt.” Rarity instructed.

But before the others could continue practicing, they heard a fanfare. The fanfare was coming from Sir Doodle, from the court of Princess Kidoodle, and was carrying a box that contained a crown.

“Look. It’s Sir Doodle, from the court of Princess Kidoodle.” Cassie said.

“...and that's Princess Kidoodle's crown. It's beautiful.” Fluttershy said.

“He must be bringing the crown to the doodle fairy kingdom for the ceremony.” Cassie said.

“Well, that’s good.” Diamond said.

But before Sir Doodle could deliver the crown, strong winds started to blow through Sir Doodle!

“Uh-oh!” Ord cried.

“What happened?” Wheezie asked.

“Let’s go find out what happened.” Sweetie said.

After a few moments of Sir Doodle being blown in the wind, the others started to find him.

“Uh, where is he? Sir Doodle?” Zak said.

Suddenly, the others heard a trumpet sound. It was Sir Doodle, who survived the wind.

“I can’t believe it! Sir Doodle survived!” Silver said.

“Well, that’s a relief.” Celestia sighed. “He would’ve gotten hurt!”

“Yeah… let’s go check up on him!” Vinyl replied.

“Are you OK, Sir Doodle?” Cassie asked.

Sir Doodle nodded, then he held the box and pointed it to Cassie.

“You want me to hold the box?” Cassie asked, while Sir Doodle pointed. “You want me to take the crown Princess Kidoodle?” she asked.

“I guess the wind's still too strong for Sir Doodle to fly.” Fluttershy responded. For once, Fluttershy knew exactly what she was talking about as Sir Doodle braced himself from the wind and made the fanfare.

“I want to help Princess Kidoodle, but what if something happens to the crown while I'm carrying it? I'd feel terrible.” Cassie asked, looking very nervous.

“But if you don't bring the crown to Princess Kidoodle, she can't be crowned queen of the Doodle Fairies.” Sweetie replied.

“Yeah. You can't let the princess down on her big day.” Ord said.

“Don't worry, Cassie. We'll take the crown there together.” Celestia responded. “Like my sister said, “Lean on your strengths to counter your weaknesses.”

“Thanks, everybody. If you all help, maybe we can do it. We have to.” Cassie said as she grabbed the crown and put it on her dragon pouch.

“Can we take Sir Doodle with us?” Sweetie asked as she grabbed Sir Doodle.

“Definitely.” Fluttershy responded.

“I'm not so sure it's safe for us to fly in this wind.” Zak responded.

“You know, Zak,for once I agree with you. I think it would be safer to walk.” Wheezie responded.

“Great, it’s gonna take forever.” Diamond complained.

“I know, Diamond. But we’ve got to do something! We gotta deliver the crown for Princess Kidoodle.” Silver said.

“Fine.” Diamond sighed.

A few moments later the others were walking together until they realized that they were under a purple lake, a purple goo bog.

“Eww. A purple goo bog.” Zak complained in disgust.

“Double EWW….” Diamond and Silver complained in disgust.

“What do we do?” Zak asked.

“Walk right through!” Wheezie suggests

“WHAT?! Are you crazy?!” Sweetie cried.

“But then we'll get all sticky and gooey. Zak complained. “I don't want to look messy for Princess Kidoodle's crowning.”

“Me neither. I'm wearing my favorite party dress.” Fluttershy said.

“Maybe we can find another way.” Ord said.

“What about those stepping stones? Maybe we can walk on them to get across.” Fluttershy said as she spotted the stepping stones, unaware that they’re stepping turtles..

“Yeah, stepping stones.” Vinyl responded.

Suddenly, the stepping turtles appeared, and they started to swim away.

“Uh, hey.” Ord responded.

“You mean stepping turtles.” Wheezie responded. “Hey, turtles! Can you please help us cross?” She asked.

But there was no answer, the Stepping Turtles were just still swimming away.

“I guess they're too far away to hear us." Celestia said.

“What about the boat? Maybe we could row across.” Wheezie said as she pointed at the boat.

“We won't all fit in a boat that small. What are we gonna do?” Zak complained.

“We can't fly over the bog and we can't walk or roll across it.” Ord complained.

“Maybe we can go under it.” Sweetie suggests.

“How are we gonna do that, Sweetie?” Rarity asks.

“We don't have time to dig a tunnel.” Fluttershy said.

Suddenly, a lightbulb lit above Zak and Wheezie. “Knuckerholes!” Zak and Wheezie said in unison.

“Wait, you mean we’re going back to your cave?” Diamond asked.

“We have a map that shows every knuckerhole in Dragon Land.” Zak said as she grabbed the map.

“Oh, that explains why you pop out in different places in Dragon Land through those knuckerholes." said Diamond.

“There's the bog and there's the knuckerhole between those two big rocks.” Wheezie explained.

“Does anybody see two big rocks?” Zak asked.

“Nothing here.” Fluttershy said.

“Okay, everyone, let’s split up!” Celestia said as everyone has split into groups hoping that they have better luck finding the two rocks and the knuckerhole.

• Sweetie Belle and Rarity - Ord
• Principal Celestia and Fluttershy - Cassie and Mr. Doodle
• Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon and Fluttershy - Zak and Wheezie

“I don't see any boulders.” Ord said just as he bumped into two large boulders. “Hey! What are those two great, big rocks doing here?” he asked.

“These aren't just two great big rocks, Ord.” Sweetie explained. “These are the rocks we've been looking for.”

“Oh, excellent work, darling. You sure know a way to find knuckerholes for sure.” Rarity cheered as Ord felt proud of himself.

“Ooh! Hey, everybody! I found them!” Ord called out to everyone. As everyone heard, they’ve arrived at the knuckerhole they were looking for. With that, everyone jumped in. As they were riding down, Silver and Celestia were a little uneasy by the bumps.

“Oh, nelly!” Celestia screamed.

“Is this normal?!” Silver screamed.

“Yeah. Get used to it!” Diamond yelled back.

When they popped up, they see that they all got right past the Purple Goo bog!

“We did it!” Zak and Wheezie cheered as the girls, Sir Doodle and the dragons popped right out. Suddenly, Zak and Wheezie badges start to glow along with Sweetie Belle and Rarity's badges.

“Look, Zaky! Our dragon badges are glowing.” Wheezie cheered.

"So is ours, darlings!" Rarity replied as her badge glows along with Sweetie's.

“Yeah.” Zak replied. “When we work together…”

“Two heads are better than one.” Zak and Wheezie said in unison.

"Yeah. That's true." Sweetie replied as the badges' glow fades.

“Whoo. That was way too close. I’m glad I didn’t get my dress all messy, darlings!” Rarity sighed in relief.

“You’re telling me. I would never forgive myself if I got messy.” Diamond replied.

“Same here.” Silver said with Diamond hugging her friend in relief.

“Well, which way to the doodle fairy kingdom now, Sir Doodle?” Principal Celestia as Sir Doodle pointed forward to the canyon. With that, the group continued their trek.

It was then that Ord suddenly heard a booming noise and it freaked him out. “Do you hear that?” he asked in fear. “Is that...thunder? That thunder sounds too loud and scary for me. I'm gonna stay right here until the storm goes away.” He goes to hide under a safe area of the canyon.

“Oh, boy. Ord the scaredy little dragon scared again.” Diamond teased.

“Diamond! Be nice.” Rarity scolds.

“There’s no storm here, Ord.” Principal Celestia promised as everyone approached him.

“By the way, I like the beat and rhythm of this noise.” Vinyl said, snapping her fingers to the beat.

“I know thunder when I hear it. You all go on and bring that crown to Princess Kidoodle. I'll catch up with you later.” Ord said, frightened.

“We're not going anywhere without you, Ord.” Fluttershy said, worried as everyone feels concerned for Ord’s mental state.

“But if you don't keep going, Princess Kidoodle won't get her crown.” Ord complained.

“That's why you have to come with us, Ord.” Sweetie said as Fluttershy comforted the big dragon.

“I can't but don't want to let the princess down.” Ord replied, worried about the inevitable.

“You won't be alone, Ord. We'll all be with you every step of the way.” Cassie promised.

“She’s right. We’re with you and you can always count on us.” Silver said as everyone nodded in agreement.

“Let's hold hands.” Fluttershy suggested as she held out her hand. Ord grabs on and she gently lets him out as everyone guides him nice and slow.

“We'll take it nice and slow. Very slow. Step by step. We're moving on. We're all right here… Till your fears are gone.” Vinyl sang.

“Hey, you made a rhyme in time to the thunder, Vinyl.” Wheezie cheered

“Say it again, Vinyl!” Zak said.

“Oh, of course. We'll take it nice and slow. Very slow. Step by step. We're moving on. We're all right here…” Vinyl sang.

“...till my fears are gone.” Ord finishes.

Eventually, they made it up the hill and the field of trees lay in front of them. It was there they see giants walking through banging drums.

“Oh, so that explains the banging. They must be on their way to Princess Kidoodle’s coronation.” Fluttershy said in awe.

“Sorry I was such a scaredy dragon, everyone.” Ord said in guilt.

“It’s okay. You came up the hill anyway, even though you were afraid, Ord.” Fluttershy said.

“Yeah. That was really brave.” Diamond and Silver said in unison.

“We all helped out of course. I am happy to help guide him through the beat.” Vinyl explained as her badge is glowing along with Fluttershy and Ord’s badge!

Vinyl has learned that the rhythm is the key to helping friends with their problems (mainly through music) and Ord had conquered another fear. Fluttershy is always there when something is awry or amiss. Everyone sure was proud of them.

“Hmm. It's not too windy. Maybe it's safe to fly.” Wheezie exclaimed, noticing that the wind had gone away.

Cassie had lifted herself off to confirm and it is safe to fly after all. It’s not windy anymore!

“Whoo! At last.” Diamond and Silver sigh in relief and unison.

With that, Cassie goes down and gives Sweetie Belle a lift, Principal Celestia, Vinyl Scratch and Diamond Tiara ride with Ord, Silver, Rarity and Sir Doodle ride on Zak & Wheezie and Fluttershy had ponied up and flew alongside them.

It sure was a long-needed flight through the field when they made it to their destination.

“Look, Rarity! The doodle fairy kingdom!” Sweetie Belle cheered.

“Ooh, it’s so beautiful darling!” Rarity exclaimed in astonishment.

They all land in front of the gate to the kingdom. The problem is that the gate is locked!

“Uh, oh. It’s locked!” Fluttershy exclaimed.

“Seriously?! All this for us to get to a locked gate?!” Diamond complained.

“Diamond!” Principal Celestia scolds.

“Why would they lock the gates with all the guests coming?” Zak complained.

“Hey! Doodle Fairies! Can you hear me?” Sweetie Belle called.

“I read a book about Doodle Fairies. I think you have to say special words to open the gates, but maybe I'm not remembering it right." Cassie explained.

“We can't fly over the gate. There's no room.” Zak explained.

“...and there's not a knuckerhole for miles around.” Wheezie replies.

Cassie tries to remember the words, but couldn’t quite do so.

“Oh, no. If we can’t say the special words, we’ll never get the rown to Princess Kidoodle.” Fluttershy sighed.

“Come on! Open up! Please? We'll miss the royal feast and I'm hungry.” Ord yelled, shaking the gate in panic.

“Whoa! Calm down!” Principal Celestia said.

“There are special words to open them and we all have to say the words together. I was afraid that I might say them wrong, because I don’t remember them.” Cassie explains.

“Oh, no.” Sweetie Belle sighed.

“Well, how does the phrase go, darling?” Rarity asks.

“Lay it on us, Cassie.” Wheezie asks.

“I'll say it first, then we all have to repeat it together. Silver gate, so big and wide. We need to enter, so move aside.” Cassie recited as the gate started to glow.

“Hey, it’s working!” Diamond and Silver cheer.

“Let’s say it together, darlings.” Rarity instructs.

“Silver gate, so big and wide. We need to enter, so move aside.” Everyone recites in unison. With that, the gate has opened and they’re all able to enter.

“Finally.” Diamond and Silver said in unison, happy that the gate had opened.

“I'm sure happy you told us, Cassie.” Celestia praised.

“Me, too.” Cassie replied, proud of herself as her dragon badge begins to glow along with Principal Celestia’s badge.

Principal Celestia learns to have faith in others, even those from other dimensions while Cassie learns that all it takes for her to accomplish something is to turn to others for help.

The badges stopped glowing as everyone entered the kingdom and flew right through the kingdom.

“Wow! This place is amazing, darlings!” Rarity exclaimed.

“...and the fairies sure are cute and are living a fancy lifestyle!” Silver said.

“I sure wish I could live like that.” Diamond sighed.

“Well, you can only dream, Diamond.” Principal Celestia replied as Sweetie Belle and Fluttershy laughed.

“I’m beginning to get inspiration for my next video.” Vinyl Scratch said to herself.

Just a minute of flying later, everyone had made it to the altar where Princess Kidoodle and the doodle fairy family was waiting.

“Don't worry, Princess Kidoodle. We have it. We have your crown.” Cassie exclaimed as she pulled out the box and the crown out of her pouch while she, the girls, Sir Doodle and the others flew towards the altar. Just like that, the three mice start playing their instruments and the giants bang their drums and trumpets play a fanfare as Princess Kidoodle walks across the carpet to the altar, but she doesn’t have a crown.

“Oh, we still have to give her the crown!” Fluttershy exclaimed in worry as everyone landed, Fluttershy powers herself down and Cassie runs to the altar when she suddenly trips on a rock and the crown flies right out of her hands and out of the box!! Everyone gasped in panic now that the crown was flying by and would break, but luckily: it landed on Princess Kidoodle’s head. Talk about a close call!

“Whoa! That sure was close!” Diamond said in relief.

“Yeah, it sure would be a disaster indeed, daring.” agrees Rarity as the princess sat on the throne in front of her, thus making her the true fairy princess.

“You know, I am so proud of her and all of us on this day.” Vinyl said. “We helped each other make it all the way to the kingdom, Cassie brought the crown to the princess and now look at her: She’s a true figure of Doodle Fairy loyalty.”

Just like that, the ceremony occurs with Vinyl Scratch helping with the fanfare, everyone enjoys the feast and now, it’s time for the girls to head home.

“I wish, I wish, to use this rhyme, to go back home, until next time." Rarity, Sweetie Belle, Fluttershy, Diamond, Silver, Vinyl and Principal Celestia recite in unison as they head back to Rarity’s room.

“Wow! That sure was very adorable seeing Princess Kidoodle and her crowning ceremony.” Fluttershy said.

“Indeed it was, Fluttershy.” Sweetie Belle replied as Rarity hugged her little sister.

“I’m even crying tears of joy just thinking about it.” Diamond exclaimed.

“Me too, Diamond. Me too.” Silver replied, hugging her friend.

“I’m hoping I get invited to Dragon Land for more adventures with you guys again.” Principal Celestia said.

“Oh, you will. I guarantee that.” Rarity promised.

“We should tell everyone about our adventure today. They’re gonna be jealous.” Vinyl exclaimed, snickering.

“Oh, I wouldn’t go overboard with that, darling.” Rarity warns as everyone laughs.
