Frisk woke up during the middle of the night (Well, it's actually always night), and to see Twilight wasn't by her side.
'Where did she run off to?' She thought.She ran into the forest to see if she can find her.Later, she went back to the empty spot she landed at, and there's Twilight, sitting there alone in the night.
'Twilly?Are you okay?' She asked.
'Oh...It's nothing.I just...need some time alone, nothing special.' Twilight replied in a soft voice.
As she turned around to face Frisk, her face was actually covered in tears.
'Are you crying?What happened?' She sat down next to her friend.
'It was my fault...All of this right now...It's because of what I did...' Twilight was sobbing.
Frisk was curious why. 'How can you say it's your fault?You had to use the elements to come save Earth.It was the core thing that helped us save my country.'
'You don't get it,' Twilight cried. 'Equestria's most important defense is the elements, I altered the timeline to get the elements back when Nightmare moon was attacking the place since that time is possibly the only time I can steal the elements of harmony without anyone noticing.Since the elements aren't there anymore, she beat our former ruler...Princess Celestia,' She explained.
'But why didn't anything change really?You said when Starlight was traveling through time history was altered greatly!'
'That's because when she prevented the 'rainboom' from Rainbow Dash happening, it wasn't able to connect us together since we actually got our 'cutie marks' at the same time and we had a special connection.Without it, over won't be stopping multiple forces from attacking Equestria.'
Frisk let out a sigh.She put her around her to comfort her friend. 'Look, Twilight, sometimes these things happen.You can't be able to do something if you don't sacrifice something else.That's the same case with you now.Through my experiences, I think you can do it.We can defeat Nightmare Moon again and send her to where she belongs.Because as far as I know, friendship is a powerful thing.You taught me that the first day I met you.We brought the elements with us, we can defeat her pretty soon.' She calmly told her.
Frisk helped Twilight dry her tears and waited for her to calm down. 'Thank, Frisk, I am glad I met you that day.' She said, still sniffing from her tears.
'Let's actually get some rest and move on.' Frisk suggested.
The next day, still under the moonlight, the group was talking about their plan to defeat Nightmare Moon once and for all, until Twilight came in.
'Hey, girls...I have a confession to make.' She said anxiously.
'You can tell us if you want to, I don't mind,' Fluttershy replied.
She got her bag and reached for the elements.Everypony gasped in shock of her keeping them for so long.
'What!?You had them all along?' Rainbow exclaimed.
Twilight sighed.She knows this won't be good for her. 'Let me explain what happened...'
'So that time traveling spell you told me to do...It was for this?' Starlight asked her.
'I know girls, it was my fault I altered the timeline, I am so sorry...' Twilight was going to cry again.
Being the understanding pony she is, Applejack went over to her. 'Twilight, you sacrificed the one thing that we depended on to beat out other bad forces attacking.But trust me, it was for a good cause.'
Even the very unserious Pinkie Pie had her mane deflated. 'You saved Earth because of the elements of harmony!That makes up for it right?'
While Twilight was still feeling a bit guilty at first, seeing her friends being so nice to her, she finally puts that away as a thing in the past.All she needed to do was ask for their forgiveness.
'So...After al, I did, after everything, I altered to make Equestria such a miserable place...Can you all forgive me?' She said softly.
Everypony nodded and went over to comfort her, even Frisk did!
'You're never alone Twilight, we will always be with you.' Frisk smiled.
Twilight got herself free from her friends. 'Thanks, girls, it means a lot.' She said, relieved. 'So, what's the plan?'
Rainbow Dash immediately spoke up. 'Alright listen up everypony, our plan will go a little like this...'
The plan was surprisingly simple; Use the elements, storm the castle, defeat Nightmare Moon and send her to the moon, done.Call it a day and everypony's lives return to normal.
'I thought you ponies would have a pretty like complicated plan, I didn't expect to be so direct, though.' Spike said.
'Sometimes the best plans are the most direct ones,' Starlight punched him playfully. 'Now that we are all back together, we can use the elements that Twilight just so happened to bring with her to defeat Nightmare Moon!'
But, what they didn't expect, was what happened after Frisk used the elements for saving her country.
'Girls, I'm afraid this plan won't work...' Twilight said mid-way.
'What!?Why not?' Rainbow shouted.
'Calm down Dash, she must have a reason,' Rarity told her.
Frisk sighed. 'When I used to elements to be able to give myself the ability to save my country from that stupid emperor, Twilight told me the magic from them was nearly drained after that long fight.I suppose you guys would definitely not want to wait forever for them to charge to its maximum potential, but I don't know how else we would possibly be able to charge it up faster.'
And everypony instantly became hopeless on their plan.
'I thought it would be this easy,' Fluttershy said. 'But through our experiences, dealing with sins wasn't easy.'
But then, Starlight had an idea. 'Twilight, did you tell me before how the elements get the magic from?'
'It's obviously none other than friendship, of course.'
'Why don't we help the crystals regain their power through spreading friendship?It is very simple, considering you are the princess of friendship.' She suggested.
'But how in Equestria are we gonna do that?' Applejack asked. 'We aren't getting much friendship problems after Nightmare Moon took over this place!'
It took a bit of silent thinking for the plan to work out.At last, Frisk thought of something. 'Speaking of which, I haven't really got used to this world yet...Maybe I can possibly help you all, while trying to blend in at the same time.'
'It's worth a shot,' Starlight replied. 'Without friendship, I don't think we will be using them in the battle.'
'Great idea!While you recharge the power of the crystals, you can learn more about friendship as well!' Twilight said. 'Okay, new plan.Frisk and I will be going around spreading friendship and help recharge the elements.Starlight,you're coming with us too.' She suggested, winking at Starlight.
'I guess I can help a little,' She thought, feeling shy.
'While we're doing that, the rest of you can work on our battle plan.Applejack, Dash, you two go sneak on the guards so we can easily break through into the throne room.Pinkie Pie, go with them to try and distract the guards so they can carry out their part.And for Rarity and Fluttershy, you get to discuss what works after they come back.In the meantime, make sure everypony is good and fine.' She explained.
The group thought it was pretty good, so they closed their deal on the plan.
'Let's make Equestria great again!' Frisk said confidently.
So everypony gathered and put their hoofs (or hands) together. 'Let's do this!' They said in harmony, raising their hoofs and hands.
