The two-part series pilot "Friendship is Magic", but with a Kingdom Hearts twist. Aspiring Keyblade master Twilight Sparkle fails her attempt at the Mark of Mastery exam. To help get her mind off her studies, Princess Celestia sends Twilight to the nearby town of Ponyville to oversee preparations for this year's Summer Sun Celebration. But the threat of a great 1,000-year-old evil looms.

(Gasp! A Kingdom Hearts crossover! It's so original! ...Yeah, I know it's been done countless times already, but I just couldn't say no. I love Kingdom Hearts; I'm not exaggerating when I say it's the only thing I love more than MLP. 'Blasphemy! Burn the heretic!' I can already hear some of you thinking. Again, I thought the opportunity was too good to pass up. And so here we are.

Fair warning: if you haven't played any of the Kingdom Hearts titles, much of this story will likely go over your head; only the bare minimum of accessibility will be given to series newcomers. Secondly, as this is a Kingdom Hearts take on the "Friendship is Magic" two-parter, Sora, Donald, Goofy, and other KH characters will NOT be appearing. I feel I should make that clear so I don't end up disappointing those of you hoping to see your favorite KH characters as ponies.

Also, if this turns out to be popular, I may do Kingdom Hearts versions of other MLP episodes and even some completely original stories.)
