Years after Graduation, Gallus and his friends have all made successful lives for themselves. While they may have drifted apart, they still kept each other in their hearts.

But with the annual School of Friendship Reunion underway, Gallus is ready to reconnect with friends, revisit old haunts, and reignite those very bonds.

But time affects everyone differently. And Gallus will have to learn that the more things stay the same... The more things change.

Beware of Infinity War Spoliers:

When he snaps his fingers half of all life in the universe was wiped out. What happens when Equestria is the next planet effected by this

Note: This will be very emotional and won't have a happy ending (But if this story does really well, I may do a sequel.)

Warning: Some bad grammar

Imagine being an ordinary citizen going about your day with no idea that the Wakanda battle to protect the Mind Stone is even happening. And then suddenly, your friend, your family members or even you begin disintegrating into dust. You have no idea what it is, what's causing it and you can't stop it.

That's exactly what the ponies of Equestria felt when Thanos snapped his fingers.

Twilight, Spike, and their friends leave the School of Friendship to embark on another adventure. To fill in during their absence, Twilight assigned a substitute teacher to cover for her and teach her History of Friendship class. When the students find out they begin discussing what pranks they should pull or how they can convince what they assume will be a pushover substitute to go easy on the homework.

The pony who walks through the door is not who they were anticipating.

With threats of war on the horizon, the missing students need to turn up fast.

Someone else, however, has other things in mind for the students. And the first step involves releasing a serious threat to Equestria. Something that only those with a select power can face.

A power that the students now have.
