"QUIET!!!"

"The only way to be happy is if we're all equal!" Starlight assured the townsponies of her village, who confronted her over lying of having an equal sign the time she lived with them.

"Except for YOU." Party favor called her out.

In a fit of rage, Starlight scowled at him, charging a spell.

"Everypony has unique talents and gifts. And when we share them with each other, that's how-"

"QUIET!!!"

....................................

"You can't have-" Sugar Belle was about to criticize Starlight until,

"QUIET!!!" Starlight fired a spell at Sugar Belle that silenced her speech. She couldn't speak a word and when she realized, silently screamed over her condition.

"What the- Starlight! You can't-!" Double Diamond was about to scold Starlight until yet again,

"QUIET!!!" She fired the spell at Double Diamond.

"That's enough Starlight! You can't silence ponies just because-" Twilight tried to reason with Starlight but still,

"QUIET!!!" Starlight fired the spell at the mane six and the rest of the ponies in her town, then proceeded to run into her cottage.

Double Diamond then motioned the ponies of "our town" to head to the cutie mark vault and get their marks back, while Twilight and her friends went after Starlight to get their voices back.

"I'll make them all quiet, they will all be QUIET!!!" Starlight shouted to herself, as she took the mane six's cutie marks and left through the secret exit at the bottom of her bed.

Twilight and her friends barged into Starlight's cottage, went upstairs, saw the entrance and followed her.

"Oh hey! How's it going-"

"QUIET!!!" Starlight used her spell on a random mare passing by.

"Hello! Good to see ya-"

"QUIET!!!"

"Lovely day isn't it-"

"QUIET!!!"

"Good morning to yo-"

"QUIET!!!"

A stallion walked up to her, not saying a word. Starlight stared at him for a while................

.........................................

"What do you wa-"

"QUIET!!!"

The mane six followed Starlight through the entrance and followed her up the mountains, passing by several ponies who lost their voices.

Starlight made it to the cave, but Twilight stopped her by blocking the entrance with a snow wall with her magic.

Twilight motioned for Starlight to give her and her friends and the townsponies their voices back.

"No! You all need to learn to be QUIET!!!" Starlight then blasted the snow wall and went inside while the mane six followed her.

They exited the cave and they eventually found themselves in Ponyville.

"Oh hey you must be ne-"

"QUIET!!!"

"Haven't seen you around he-"

"QUIET!!!"

"Welcome to Ponyvil-"

"QUIET!!!"

"Greetings new frie-"

"QUIET!!!"

The mane six knew that Starlight couldn't keep silencing ponies, or all of Equestria would become mute.

Twilight signaled the others to catch Starlight while she ran back to her castle to attempt to warn Spike.

Spike was sitting at in the throne room talking with Big Mac about hoofball until Twilight barges into the room.

"Twilight? You back from your trip already?" Spike asked his alicorn companion.

Twilight waved her hoofs at Spike, trying to find a way to communicate.

"Wh- why aren't you saying anything? Is it my breath?" Spike asked the purple friendship princess, to which she violently shook her head no.

"Big Mac, you're a quiet guy. can you understand what Twilight's trying to tell us?" Spike asked Applejack's big brother.

"Eeeee' nope." Big Mac simply replied.

Twilight pointed her hoofs out the exit of the castle, then waved her hoofs in a way that gestured she did not want him to go outside.

"I think she doesn't want us to go outside. But, she won't speak so I don't know why!" Spike told Big Mac.

Twilight gestured to Spike using her hoofs that she lost the ability to speak.

"I think she's trying to say that she lost her voice to an evil sea witch?......." Spike relayed to Big Mac who was holding Hoofball cards.

Twilight facehoofed and re-arranged her hoofs to retell the story.

"Or, she lost her voice to a mad unicorn who was doing the same to everypony in Ponyville?! We've got to do something Big Mac!" Spike panicked to the farm Stallion, who was shocked because he was a little busy managing cards.

Twilight grasped Spike with her hoofs and motioned him not to go outside, because it was too dangerous.

"Well we can't just sit here as many ponies lose their voices! We've got to stop her!" Spike stated to his best friend.

Big Mac then placed down his cards and walked outside the castle.

"Big Mac? Where are you going?" Spike asked Big Mac who didn't reply, while Twilight non verbally told him not to, but he didn't listen and continued walking outside.

Outside, Starlight was blasting her spell against groups of innocent ponies, until she encountered Big Mac who was just slowly, but ominously walking towards her.

"Stop! Don't come any closer!" Starlight warned Big Mac who was still advancing towards her.

"Eeeeee' nope." Big Mac simply told Starlight in response.

"QUIET!!!" Starlight then fired her spell at Big Mac. Who blinked his eyes in response............

......................................

"Eeeeeeee' nope." Big Mac simply said, as he continued to advance towards his victim.

"What?!" Starlight was baffled how her spell didn't effect Big Mac, she kept firing hoping it would eventually serves it's purpose, but it never did. Big Mac kept walking towards his prey.

"Eeeeee' nope." Big Mac said as he took a big stroll towards his target.

"Why, isn't. this, working?!" Starlight shouted as she repeatedly fired at Big Mac but to no avail.

Big Mac was so quiet and said very little words that the spell didn't even register Big Mac as somepony who should be silenced. Therefore, it had no effect on him.

Big Mac eventually caught up with Starlight, he grasped her with his hoofs.

"EEEEEEE' NOPE!" He said, before knocking her out with his head.

Starlight fell to the floor, and the severe impact to her horn caused the spell to cease it's effects, freeing everypony from the silent curse.

Starlight also dropped the cutie mark jars she'd been carrying, which broke. Causing the mane six's cutie marks to be restored to their original owners.

"Yee-haw! Finally I can buck like a five-bit snake harder in an appleloosa ranch house again!" Applejack exclaimed as she got her cutie mark back.

"And we got our voices back too." Fluttershy added, as she and her friends meet Twilight. Who was ready to punish Starlight for her outlandish behavior.

"Ugh...... Wha- what are you gonna do to me?........" Starlight asked, as she was surrounded by Twilight and her friends.

"The only thing that's appropriate for criminals like you........" Twilight stated.

As Starlight's eyes widened with horror, Twilight carried her away with her magic.

"Wait, no! please! Noooooooooo!!!!" Starlight begged for mercy, but it was no use. Twilight took Starlight away from the scene she caused.

Later............

Twilight placed Starlight on a chair, and gave her a book to read. And left the library she put her in.

"Ahhhhhh, just what I needed......." Starlight relaxed, as she was finally in a place where she would have peace and quiet........
