At Sugarcube Corner's outskirt, the messy and dirty Pinkie was still hugging Rainbow happily and wildly on the disgusting pie tin. Twilight and Applejack were there as they both smile happily to see two friends reconciled and still friends. Due to Rainbow's deception, Pinkie went crazy and mad to find out if she lied or not, making the rainbow maned pony to apologize for the mess she made.

"Well, thank goodness, it's over," Twilight said in relief.

Applejack nodded, "Yeah. Couldn't agree more. Just imagine if Icy were on Pinkie's position, she'd be one crazy mad buffalo to deal with."

Twilight hissed, "And not to mention,  she's extremely sensitive and upset if she found out we lied to her about her cook for a long time."

Rainbow and Pinkie yelped in realization. They both gasped, "ICY! Oh no! We almost forgot about that!"

"What are you talking about?" Applejack asked in concern.

Twilight narrowed her eyes suspiciously, "What did you do?!"

SCREAM! BOOM! The girls yelped in shock and concern. They turned to their back and found the Mystic Portal was opened. They found Shadow Dragon, Saber, Aqua, Laxtinct and Tailtech got thrown and slammed on the ground. Five of them groaned and moaned painfully as they have some cuts and icy crystals on their bodies.

"Guys!" Rainbow called in shock. She approached to Aqua, "You alright?!"

Aqua grabbed Rainbow's throat as she slowly got up and glared at the Pegasus, "Where the hell were you?! Do you have any idea of what we've gone through?!"

"You were supposed to be joining us for her lunch! And you've missed it!" Saber exclaimed in fury.

Tailtech nodded angrily, "Yeah! No thanks to you guys. Laxtinct babbled out of excuses and the truth! She's mad at us now!"

"I hate to ask. What truth would that be?" Applejack asked in concern.

Laxtinct took a deep breathe and exclaimed, "I told her the truth! I told her that nopony, her friends and family actually like her cook! I even told her that her cook isn't great but full of junk and messy! And the worst of all, she forced me to eat while looking closely on me, making sure that I won't try to lie or run away. So, I spitted out!"

"What?! How could she do that?!" Rainbow asked in shock and concern.

Pinkie nodded, "Yeah, that doesn't like her!"

"Because of what you two did, she got suspicious on us," Shadow Dragon answered in concern, "Now she knows about. She's really angry!"

"YOU'D THINK?!" Icy's voice demanded in anger. Everyone yelped in shock and concern. They turned and looked at the Mystic Portal. She emerged from it. Se revealed herself that she was covered by disgusting and messy food, She shown her angry and furious eyes at her friends. She groaned in anger, "HOW COULD YOU?!"

Everyone yelped and shivered in fear as they're facing at the angry face of Icy. She armed with her Icing Skate Blades while glaring at them.

"All this time... All this time..." Icy said dryly and angrily, "You've been lying to me since my first day I cooked!"

"Wow, easy, Icy!" Twilight exclaimed in concern.

"Icy! Let us explain!" Shadow Dragon said fearfully.

Saber nodded, "And believe us, we'd never meant to hurt you for lying! We didn't want to hurt you!"

"Yeah. You have to believe us! We're your friends," Laxtinct pleaded in fear, "Don't kill us. I beg you! Don't kill us!"

Icy demanded as she armed and aimed her blades at them, "You really think that I'm gonna fall for it?!"

"Icy, it's true!" Aqua insisted before gulped uneasily, "Well, mostly we lied about the cook."

Tailtech nodded in concern, "We really care for you."

Icy screamed, "LIAR!"

"Calm down, Icy! Don't get overreact!" Applejack said in concern.

"Yeah! We're gonna make it up for you!" Rainbow exclaimed frantically, "We promised that we'll try to eat and put all of the foods into our stomach for good!"

Pinkie nodded fearfully, "Yeah! Pinkie Promise!"

"ENOUGH!" Icy screamed in anger as she fired her Frozen Shards at her friends. They all yelped and dodged to the ground hard at once. She cried tearfully yet angrily, "I hate you all! I don't want to see you again!"

Icy turned and ran towards the Mystic Portal before closing down at once. Everyone was in shock yet guilty and shame. She's too angry and upset to talk with them.





Everyone gathered inside the Sugarcube Corner. They all were sitting down on their seats while having some sodas and drinks. They all looked upset, concern and somber over what has happen to Icy. They have gone to far for lying and tricking her that her food is great. The damages is done now. They're all ashamed of themselves of it.

And at the same time, Lemon Zest was listening to her own music while playing the DJ Jockey happily and wildly. Some ponies were singing and dancing while enjoying their own food.

"We really screw up badly, didn't we?" Laxtinct asked in concern.

"Eeyup. We really did," Saber confirmed in concern.

Rainbow groaned, "What are we gonna do, Pinkie? Icy is mad at all of us."

"Yeah." Pinkie agreed, "I wish there was another way we can do make up for it."

Tailtech sighed, "Unfortunately for us, Icy isn't a forgiving pony when it comes to lying her and insulting her cook. She's too upset and angry to talk with us now."

"But she's your friend, Tailtech," Twilight asked curiously, "We should try to talk and comfort with her."

"And also, apologize to her for lying about her cook," Applejack added.

"I don't think it's gonna be easy," Shadow Dragon said in uneasiness.

"He's right. If we're lucky enough to get that chance." Aqua commented in concern. She sighed, "Face it, guys. We're screwed of everything."

"Dudes. Maybe you shouldn't think and worry too much, you know," Lemon Zest said happily and wildly while playing with the discs, "Just because you get one bad day, doesn't mean that everyday is gonna be bad. But who knows?" She cheered wildly, "Woo! Maybe you did something good, you might have a very good and lucky day. Just depending on what you can do, dudes and dudetes!"

At first, everyone was confuse and surprise of what Lemon Zest has said. They began to have some thoughts of what she has said. They realized that she could be right.

"I hate to admit it," Aqua said in realization, "She could be right."

Saber nodded in agreement, "I'm with you, Aqua. Sure we screw up everything or even having some bad days, but for next few days, we get some good days because we did something else."

"Yeah. Just like what we have been through!" Twilight said happily.

"Yup. Together we can solve and overcome the problems, no matter what happens," Shadow Dragon said confidently and proudly, "We can do this too!"

"Yeah! That would be awesome..." Laxtinct said and nodded happily before slowly shaking his head and asking, "Why?"

"It means Icy maybe still or will be angry and annoyed with us for the mess, we'd just have to keep on apologizing and making it up for her as many times we have to," Tailtech explain calmly, "After all, she's our friend."

Pinkie nodded happily, "Yeah. I'm gonna make the best Apologize Party for her to enjoy!"

"Yeah!" Rainbow agreed, "We're gonna show her that we really sorry about the mess we make! And trust me, it's what friends do! What do you say?!"

Everyone cheered wildly and happily as they agreed to make the best apologize party and good meal for Icy to accept it. Lemon Zest smiled, "Cool, ya'all!"





Within bedroom of Frozen Cold Capital, Icy was still crying in despair and upset while covering her face on the bed. Ever since she discovered all of her friends and families have been lying to her about eating her meals and commenting of how 'good' they are. She even locked her bedroom's door as she refused to see anyone or forgive them.

Hearing the door knocked, Icy groaned and shouted angrily, "GO AWAY!"

"Icy, please. It's me! Please, let me in," Solflare's voice said calmly and gently, "I just wanna talk with you."

Icy refused to move and open the door. Her voice then sighed in annoyance and disappointment. The icy door melted down, allowing Solflare to march and enter the bedroom. Icy got up at once, as she turned and glared at her older sister for melting down her door.

"Hey, you didn't let me in," Solflare said calmly and firmly. She sat down on the bed, close to her younger sister. She spoke, "Wanna talk?"

Icy shook her head, "No. I don't want to talk about my friends or my cook. I'm not in mood about it."

"I figure that you're still mad about it. Either way, I'm still gonna talk about it. Do you really think that we all talked bad about your foods after tasting once or twice of your food?"

"Obviously! Whenever I mention about cooking, they all panicked and made excused that they have had their meals or asking to do something else, or even taking me out for lunch! That shows my friends hated my cook and make fun of mine whenever I'm not around. I'm sure you did, big sister."

"Are you sure that I really do such a thing?"

"Well, I..." Icy paused as she gave some thoughts, "No... No, you wouldn't."

Solflare nodded in agreement, "I'm pretty sure that your friends wouldn't do such a thing. Do you even know why your cook is terrible?"

"Not sure. All I ever did is make my own food. After all, chefs are known to be artists and creative when it comes to cooking and making the best delicious dish for everyone to enjoy. So, I do the same. Cooking is quite fun. Besides, who needs book to do so?"

"No wonder her cook is terrible."

"So, what did I do wrong?"

"You don't have enough experience to be creative and artistic enough," Solflare admitted firmly, making Icy annoyed and angry. She continued, "It's the truth. Face it, kiddo. And also you didn't follow the book's instruction. Without it, you might make the worst meal you ever have."

"Seriously?"

"I mean it, Icy. That's my honest opinion. Did you follow the book's instruction?"

About to argue back, Icy stopped at once while realized her flaw, "No, I didn't. So, not anyone liked my cook. I guess it's my fault, not theirs. They don't want to hurt my feelings about how bad my cook is. But instead, I sort of hurting them for lying and making fun of me."

Solflare smiled, "Now you know the mistake. And you should apologize."

"Yeah. I guess I will," Icy said in agreement. She then noticed Solflare was holding a book. She asked, "What's that?"

"This?" Solflare asked as she held and shown the book before Icy. She smiled, "This is the cooking book. I thought you could use it for your cook. Ready to follow it?"

Icy sighed, "I guess it wouldn't hurt a bit to learn and practice of how to cook."

Solflare smiled as she patted Icy's mane, "That's my little girl. Just remember of what we have discussed."

Icy smiled, "Okay."

"Alright. I'll see you later," Solflare said calmly. She got up and approached to the door. Before she closed it, she winked at Icy, "Remember, Icy. Read the book."

Icy nodded happily. Solflare closed the door, leaving her younger sister alone. Icy sighed calmly and happily as she glad to talk with someone about the misunderstanding mess. She opened the book while reading them carefully and patiently, finding which meal she wanted to cook. She came across to the cookie page, which looked delicious and interesting.

"Wow! That's something. I should try this out," Icy said happily. She then gasped, "Maybe I can cook and bake them for my friends. That would be a perfect apology gift. They're gonna love it!"

Icy read the cooking book as she has decided to bake the cookies for her friends. It would be perfect...





In the evening, Icy arrived and entered the kitchen. She put the apron around her body. She stood before on the table, which consisted of cooking book, cooking tools and some ingredients. She took a deep breathe as she looked at the book. She turned and grabbed the wooden spoon. She looked at it carefully and firmly

Icy sighed, "I can do this..."

While looking and referencing the cooking book, Icy began mixing the ingredients together into the bowl. She's gonna make the best meal of it. While she was working on her baking, a strange shadowy robotic figure appeared. It changed and replaced the sugar bag with another one. It then teleported out at once.

What was the sugar bag did the robot replace with? Why?





On the next day, Twilight and her team included Shadow Dragon, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Lemon Zest, Aqua, Saber, Tailtech and Laxtinct, have gathered at the Suagrcube Corner. All of them discussed the plans of making best 'Apology Party for Icy', and what foods that are suitable for her. After some discussion, they all began their projects.

Saber, Pinkie and Laxtinct prepared baking some cakes, chocolate and sweets. Twilight, Shadow Dragon, Rainbow and Aqua set up the decoration. Lemon Zest and Tailtech handled with the music while inviting some guest ponies to join the party. It took them two hours to complete their works, the 'Apology Party for Icy' is ready. Twilight and her team were standing before it. They all smiled at it.

"It's perfect," Twilight commented.

Aqua nodded, "You've said it. Icy is gonna be happy about it. And hopefully, she would forget about the argument from yesterday."

Tailtech hissed in concern, "I hope so."

"Now's your chance!" Lemon Zest said happily as she placed the headset on her eyes and began played the song. She whistled and cheered, "Princess Icy's in the house!"

Everyone turned to the entrance, where they found Icy was standing before them. And at the same time, she was holding the box of cookies. Instead of sorrow and upset looks, she smiled happily for odd reasons.

"Hey, guys!" Icy greeted happily. She looked up and found what her friends did especially the 'Apology Party for Icy'. She was surprise to ask, "You did this for me?"

Pinkie nodded happily, "It's your Apology Party!"

"Yeah. It's making up for lying to you for many years," Rainbow explained.

Laxtinct nodded innocently, "Yeah. Hopefully, you wouldn't be mad and crazy about your cook. Really and really no offense."

"None taken, guys. In fact, I'm okay and happy," Icy said happily.

Shadow Dragon hummed suspiciously, "Okay. Who are you, and what have you done to Icy?"

Saber nodded in agreement, "Yeah. There is no way Icy could be too nice when it comes to her cook being insulted especially yesterday."

"I know. I know. But thanks to my sister, I realized why you lied to me. You didn't want to hurt my feelings, just like what Pinkie and Rainbow been through with pie incident," Icy said happily. Hearing 'pie incident' has made both Pinkie and Rainbow nervous and embarrassed. Nevertheless, everyone sighed in relief that she's okay of what's really going on. She cleared her throat as she raised the box of cookies up, "Enough of that! I made some cookies for you all!"

Everyone yelped in shock and concern upon looking at Icy's box of cookies. She just said that she understood why they lied to her about her cook being good, and now she baked the cookies again? Is she so persistent to show off her delicious baked cookies?

"She can't be serious?" Laxtinct said in concern.

Aqua gulped, "I think she is."

"Uh... No offense, Icy. Are you sure you wanna do this again?" Pinkie said in concern.

Rainbow nodded, "Yeah. We don't wanna hurt your feelings."

"Trust me. It will be totally worth it." Icy said confidently and happily, "And this time, it's gonna be the best. Don't worry, I follow the cooking book's instruction. It should be alright! I promised!"

Everyone was doubtful and concerned about Icy's cooking and baking the cookies. They're not sure of how they respond to her, even if she did follow the cooking book.

Applejack whispered to her friends, "I'm not convinced about it."

Twilight nodded in concern, "Me too."

"So, who's gonna try it?" Shadow Dragon asked curiously.

Everyone remained standing still and not making the move. None of them dare to try take a bite of Icy's newly baked cookies. Icy looked upset and disappointed yet understanding since her cook is terrible.

Unable to see Icy being upset again, Pinkie volunteered herself to take the bite. She approached to Icy, who opened and revealed the box of cookies before them. She hummed while looking at the perfect yet delicious form of colorful cookies. She was hesitating from taking it. She then shrugged a bit. She took and picked one of them up. She took the bite of her cookies.

As she slowly chew her cookies, Pinkie yelped as she halted from eating it. Everyone turned and looked at her as they wondered of her reaction to it. In her imagination, the background is filled with the hails of sweets, cakes and more cookies.

Pinkie gasped, "That's..." Everyone looked at her curiously. She smiled widely, "The most delicious thing I ever taste! Icy! That was awesome!"

"WHAT?!" Everyone asked in shock and surprise.

"Really?! I did it?!" Icy asked hopefully.

"Yes, you did it!" Pinkie nodded happily as she continued eating her cookies, "I really love it! Best cookies ever!"

Icy cheered wildly, "I did it!"

Everyone including Rainbow and Laxtinct chatted and cheered happily as they approached to Icy. They asked and want to buy couple boxes of cookies. Icy can't help but feel proud and happy that ponies have finally liked and appreciated her cook. She passed and gave the boxes out to them happily and willingly.

Twilight, Applejack, Shadow Dragon, Aqua, Saber and Tailtech have a hard time to believe that Icy could actually achieve cooking the best cookies for one day. While they felt proud and happy for her to cook well, they can't help that there's something off about it. They looked at each other as they nodded firmly that they should investigate on it. Something suspicious about the cookies...





Thanks to her friends' supports and judges, Icy baked lots and lots of cookies, and sell them to both Equestria and Mystic Realm via restaurants, bakery, market, school canteens and more places. Many ponies have come to buy and collect their cookies. They could not resist from eating the cookies due to them being delicious and sweet they ever taste. They truly enjoyed it.

However, weeks have gone by, many ponies couldn't stop craving and eating more of cookies. They wanted more cookies for themselves. Many ponies visited regular places for finding and buying more cookie boxes. Whenever they spotted someone held the cookie boxes, they quickly steal and eat the cookies while they have the chance. Some ponies even fight over the cookie boxes. Most attacked some delivery ponies and delivery carriages to get the cookies. The more cookies they eat, the more craving and crazier they become especially their stomachs grow bigger and fatter.

Both Equestria and Mystic Realm did not fared well. Ponies are getting out of control due to the cookies. What has happen to them?





In the hidden yet unknown laboratory, the mysterious figure was looking and watching the giant monitor screen, which revealed the map of Equestria and Mystic Realm. Both maps are slowly covered by more and more of crimson dots like chicken pox are popping on the body wildly and crazily.

The mysterious figure laughed evilly and darkly, "Yes! Yes! Yes! Excellent! Everything has gone according to my plan! They'll never gonna stop from eating cookies!" He smirked sinisterly, "Thank you, Princess Icy..."

Who is he? What is he planning?





Twilight and her team have gathered at the Castle of Friendship's Council Chamber. However; some such as Rarity, Fluttershy, Blazefist, Terrorcreep and Shorty, who were at the hospital to check on the 'sickly' patients. Icy even brought the ingredients and cooking book. Rainbow, Pinkie and Laxtinct were late for odd reason. They decided to begin the council, involving of ponies craved and being addicted of eating lots and lots of cookies. Everyone became more concern and uneasy.

"Oh no!" Twilight said in concern, "Something's not right!"

Shadow Dragon nodded in agreement, "Yeah. We'd better figure something out about this problem now."

"What the hell is wrong with these ponies," Applejack said, "I'd never seen anypony being so obsessed and addicted of eating lots and lots of cookies."

"Which bring us suspicious and concern about it," Saber said suspiciously while looking at the cookie, "What's inside of it?"

"Good question," Aqua agreed, "What's in them?"

"Icy... What did you put in your cookies?" Tailtech asked in concern.

Icy gulped in fear, "Honestly... I have no idea." She passed the cooking book and some ingredients to Tailtech, "This is the book that my sister gave me. And whatever it is, it's not good."

"I'm sure we'll find out," Tailtech said firmly as he began to look through some ingredients and tools, "We'll find of how these cookies cause so much problems?"

Aqua hissed, "Hopefully, it's not Jokelypse Day over and over again."

Applejack groaned in concern, "Don't remind me..."

"Anyway, what should we do to solve the problem?" Twilight asked in concern.

"What do you think?" Saber asked playfully as he picked up the cooking book while looking through it, "Investigate of how the mess started."

Shadow Dragon nodded in agreement, "Saber's right. In fact, Tailtech and Saber are already starting to investigate on it now."

Everyone chatted in agreement about the investigation of Icy's newly baked cookies. And just before they could proceed, Icy's cutie mark glowed brightly. Everyone turned and looked at hers. They realized of what it means.

Icy gasped, "No way!"

Suddenly, both Cutie Map and Destiny Tablet glowed brightly as well. They turned and looked at it. They witnessed Icy's cutie mark appeared and spun around while floating across the Equestria and Mystic Realm. They all gasped in shock and concern.

Aqua awed in surprise, "I don't believe it..."

"Is it time?!" Applejack asked in surprise.

Shadow Dragon nodded, "It is. The last Elemental Element to find. And we know what is that Elemental Element."

"Mine." Icy said calmly, "The Ice..."

Saber whistled, "I'd never thought that today would be the day we get the last one."

Twilight nodded, "Wherever it is, we'll get it before those Dark Mystic Ponies do. No matter what happens, we must keep it safe."

Everyone chatted and nodded in agreement. They all turned and looked at the Cutie Map closely, watching where Icy's cutie mark would be landed for the Elemental Element of Ice's location. They've found the metropolitan-like capital city of MechSteel State - Optimal Metal Capital City. And at the same time, Destiny Tablet formed the words and revealed the final riddle for solving and getting the Elemental Element of Icy.

Icy read out the riddle:


"Disregard the Remarks of Hurt,

Gain Knowledge of more Wisdom,

Learn and fashion Skills highly,

Never give in to Your Defeat,

Thus, Faithful to Your Desire..."


"We've got the riddle and location," Shadow Dragon said firmly and calmly, "Let's finish this up for good."

"Funny. I was gonna say the same thing," Tailtech said amusingly. Everyone turned and looked at him. He continued as he shown the bag of sugars, "I have the gut feeling that the Metal Capital City have something to do with the cookies. It's so suspicious."

"Okay. Why?" Applejack asked curiously and concernedly.

Tailtech continued, "I checked and analyzed the sugar, and noticed something shinny on it. Sugar doesn't shine brightly as diamond."

Aqua nodded and added, "And Metal Mystic Ponies aren't in-charge of creating and producing foods because they're specialized on construction, craftsmanship and business, which involved of materials, gems and metals, not food. They're very bad at it." She groaned in disgust, "Trust me, I tried. It's horrible."

"Ouch..." Twilight hissed in concern, "So, you think that someone was illegally working on making ponies to crave on their cookies."

"Possibly," Saber said thoughtfully, "After all, they're not very good at cooking and baking. They heavily rely on trade with other Mystic Countries for food supplies, in-return, they get some materials and tools for themselves."

"And also, it's the least area for anyone to get suspect," Aqua continued, "Except for some good detective and scientist."

Tailtech smiled, "And of course, I'm a Metal Mystic Pony too."

"My uncle Iron Brave can help us," Icy said thoughtfully, "After all, he's Mystic Councilpony of Metal. He might know something about it."

"Then, we'd better start moving," Shadow Dragon said firmly. He hummed in concern, "Where were those three ponies? What happen to them?"

"Hey, guys..." The voice called and greeted.

Everyone turned to their back and found something shocking and scary. They found Rainbow, Pinkie and even Laxtinct became fattier and bigger than before.

"What the hell?!" Applejack asked in shock and concern.

"Oh no! Not you guys too..." Twilight said in concern.

Pinkie groaned as she continued eating some cookies, "Yeah. I can't help but to eat more of them. They're too good..."

"Tell me about it," Rainbow and Laxtinct agreed.

Saber hissed, "We'd better find the source and end it before it could cause more problems."





Using the Mystic Portal, Twilight and her team have arrived at the Optimal Metal Capital City. They all came across to the hospital, where they spotted a grayish Earth Pony in his 30's has spiky silver and white mane, small goatee and short tail worn iron armor with dark navy scarf and cape, and Roman-like helmet was talking to an armored silver Pegasus with metallic wings and also bulky and hardened armored Metal Pony.

Icy gasped, "Uncle Iron Brave!"

The Mystic Earth Pony looked surprise as he turned his back and found Icy and her friends standing before him. They waved to him.

Iron Brave smiled as he waved back, "Kiddo!" He approached and gave his niece a deep and happy hug. He chuckled happily before putting her down, "How ya doing, kid? I hope you're alright!"

Icy smiled, "I'm doing fine. I'm on the mission."

"Really?" Iron Brave asked in surprise. He smiled happily, "Good, we could use some help."

"Why do I get the feeling that involved of cookies, uncle?" Icy asked in concern.

Iron Brave sighed, "It is."





Iron Brave brought Icy and her friends inside the hospital. Looking through the windows, they all witnessed many ponies have become bigger and fatter for addicting and eating more cookies. Rainbow, Pinkie and Laxtinct were among them.

Many doctors including Dr. Healing, a silver unicorn with long white mane and tail, worn a glasses and an ancient Chinese Physician's Robe, his cutie mark is Herbs and Medicine, were checking and analyzing on ponies' conditions. They managed to put some anesthetic injection on the patients, halting them from eating more cookies. But only temporary...

Icy and her friends became uneasy and worried about the latest situation. They have to do something by finding the suspicious factory and ending the madness.

"Dr. Healing, how is it?" Iron Brave asked.

Dr. Healing sighed, "It does not bode well. The patients' conditions are getting worse. And the worse discovery I've found is that the bigger and rounder they became, the sooner they get explode."

"Can you create the cure?" Iron Brave asked in concern.

"We're working on it. We need more time." Dr. Healing said in concern. He turned his back as he looked at couple boxes of cookies. He sighed, "I won't give up, my lord. I will find the cure."

"This is what I'm worried about. I was hoping that you could help us." Iron Brave explained as he turned to his niece and her friends, "Captain Slashsteel and Tanker managed to find and collect the cookies as fast as they can before ponies would go crazy over it." He hissed in concern, "I hate to think of bad things happening to them. "

"Indeed..." Slashsteel agreed, "But I'm afraid it won't be enough to end it, unless the sources can be found."

Tanker nodded, "And not to mention, Dr. Healing is working as fast and hard as he can to find the cure for these sick ponies."

"Oh no... What have I done?" Icy said in guilt as she looked at the window. She sighed, "T-This is not what I wanted. No. This isn't it!"

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Iron Brave asked in concern and confuse. Icy explained the problems to him while her friends looked worry and guilty. He was in shock, "I don't believe it..."

"I know. Because of me, I let most of ponies to die..." Icy said in guilt and shame.

Iron Brave sighed, "That. And I can't believe that someone told you that your cook is terrible. To me, they're the best." Everyone was in confusion and shock. He smiled happily, "I mean, come on, I was her first customer."

"Seriously?" Applejack asked in surprise.

Saber nodded a bit, "It's true. Iron Brave was her judge and customer for liking her cook."

"I... I don't understand..." Icy said in shock and confusion, "How could you like it? I thought you said that from hurting my feelings."

Iron Brave scoffed, "I meant every word. I really like your food, Icy And besides, I'm a terrible cook and judge, so your mother cooked while avoided letting me to cook the meal whenever I'm near to the kitchen."

"So, you weren't offended by it."

"Nah. I maybe not good at cooking, but I enjoyed it as my hobby. And I couldn't be bothered by anyone insulting and commenting about it. I just did it for myself and my family, who liked it. Just like how I liked your cook, kiddo."

"Really, Uncle Iron Brave?"

"Yes, I am. You know what I think? I don't give a damn of what ponies think of your cooking. Because in the end, the cooking is not based by just the book but how much passion you have for it. Leave those ponies be because there is somepony like me or other poor enjoyed it. You should feel proud of it."

Icy was in shock and surprised by her uncle's wisdom. She smiled, "I... I don't know what to say?"

Iron Brave grabbed and patted Icy's head, "Just be happy and proud with your skills. You can skill cook the best for me while you followed the book for others."

"Yeah, I guess..." Icy agreed happily. She turned and looked at her friends. They all looked and feel ashamed and guilty of what happen to her lately. Just before they could speak, she spoke up, "I know what you're gonna say. You don't need to apologize to me about lying to me or not honest with me about the cook. You did it because you didn't want to hurt me. But truthfully, I rather have honest opinion about mine rather than blindly making things worse, so I can be prepared for making good cook."

"Wow... I did not expect that," Aqua said in surprise.

Twilight smiled, "But either way, when you cook something good as what we liked, we'll be ready to taste and eat it."

Applejack nodded, "And this time, no more lies."

"You have our words, Icy," Shadow Dragon said calmly.

Icy smiled, "I know. Thanks. And this time, I'm gonna show how good and best my cooking is, with my passion and love of my cook! That's my promise!"

Ponies gave the round of applause to Icy, who is now happy that she's staying true to her passion and ways of cooking, but will also be minded of which ponies like either sides of dishes.

Suddenly, a small speck of light flickered and shinned brightly blinding everyone's eyes. A sphere with ice symbol glowed in white aura. As soon as its light dimmed and dispersed, everyone was in shock and surprise of what they saw. It descended and touched Icy's head as it merging together with her now. She felt the power of ice surging through her body.

"I don't believe it," Icy said in shock. She then squealed happily, "I did it! I finally got the Elemental Element of Ice! Woohoo!"

Everyone cheered wildly and happily for Icy getting her own Elemental Element. Her teammates were still in shock and surprised by her getting the element before the battle or mission star.

"T-That's something..." Tailtech said in shock and surprise.

Aqua nodded, "I know. She actually got it before we even start the mission or bad things became more problematic to us."

"Shorty didn't start the battle, you know," Saber reminded calmly, "Still we got the last one. That's good news."

"Either way, we should focus on the mission now," Shadow Dragon said firmly.

Twilight nodded, "Yeah. We need to find and destroy the factory, and hopefully, we can find the cure at that place."

Icy nodded in agreement as she looked at her uncle, "Uncle Iron Brave, do you know any factory that is abandoned, involving of sugar?"

Iron Brave hummed in uncertain while crossed his hooves, "Not very sure. There were lots and lots of abandoned factories. Can't remember which one."

"My lord, we do have found suspicious abandoned factory, locating at south town of Ironhide Fortress," Slashsteel reported calmly and firmly, "The smokes emerging from chimney, windows have some flashlights and even heard some noise within. We believe it could be the work of enemies."

Tanker shown the symbol of yellowish colored with swirling red lines, "And we also found this symbol."

"Wait a minute... May I have a look on it," Saber said firmly. Tanker passed the symbol to him. He looked at it carefully. He hissed, "I thought there's something familiar about this. I know who is he. Can you take us there? We would like to teach him a lesson."

Both Slashsteel and Tanker nodded firmly and calmly as they agreed to help and lead Icy and her team to the suspicious factory. Saber turned and shown the symbol to his friends, which shocked yet angered them a lot. They know who is responsible of the mess.





In the hidden yet unknown laboratory, the mysterious figure continued watching the monitor screen. The maps of both Equestria and Mystic Realm are filling with more and more of cookie shipping. he then laughed evilly and proudly.

"I can't believe this is happening!" The mysterious figure said happily and wildly, "I'm gonna win! All thanks to my little project! The more cookies ponies eat, the bigger they become. They're gonna explode sooner or later! My dad and big boss gonna like this! Best work ever!"

"So, you're behind of this?!" Icy demanded in anger.

The mysterious figure yelped in fear as she jumped and slammed to the ground hard. He revealed himself to be Tech. He turned and faced the group. Icy and her friends were armed with their weapons as they prepared for the fight.

"What?! How did you get here?!" Tech asked in shock and concern, "This place is supposed to be secret and abandoned! No one should able to find out!"

"Easy. You exposed yourself too much for the world to notice," Saber said firmly, scaring Tech a bit. He continued while holding the bag of sugar, "You thought no one would notice about the sugar bag. Your abandoned factory has been activated and producing more of sugar bags. And you use Icy to do your dirty works."

Aqua nodded angrily, "And not to mention, you piss me off a lot."

"Either way, what did you put in the sugar make the ponies addicted with cookies?!" Shadow Dragon demanded.

Iron Brave nodded, "Yeah. There is no way it's an ordinary sugar..."

Tech chuckled, "I'm glad you asked. My secret ingredient for the sugar. I added more concentrated sugar extract from different kinds of sweets. And the best of all, I added some nanites in them for the trigger. Anyone who tried the cookies will get hooked right away! The sooner the ponies become bigger and fatter, they're gonna popped like the weasel! He laughed evilly, "It's brilliant plan I ever create! I'm the genius!"

Tech continued laughing evilly. Twilight and her friends were annoyed and irritated by his laughter. They're not sure what's worse - him or his worst plan.

Icy was bland and annoyed, "That's his master plan?"

"That's gotta be a joke," Shadow Dragon commented dryly.

"Yeah... For someone being a genius, you can be a real idiot and whiny," Tailtech commented.

Twilight nodded, "And not even a real villain."

"You might as well quit, Tech," Applejack suggested firmly, "It doesn't suit you well."

"Hopefully, he gain some muscle and pounds from the cookies," Aqua joked.

Saber nodded in agreement, "Yeah. That would make him 'the best villain'."

"If he doesn't blow himself out," Iron Brave joked, "Otherwise, he missed the award ceremony!"

Everyone laughed amusingly and happily about the joke they make. Overheard of the jokes and insults about him, Tech groaned in annoyance and anger. He screamed angrily and wildly.

"That does it! Nopony make fun of me! Get ready to get splat!" Tech exclaimed in anger, "All TECHBOTS ATTACK!"

The army of robotic Techbots and War Machines armed with their swords, spears and blasters. They all charged and attacked Twilight and her friends. They all responded to fight back.

Twilight fired her Unicorn Bursts, Repel Spell and Friendship's Rainbow Power in destroying most of Techbots. Applejack punched and kicked them one-by-one. Shadow Dragon used his Darkness Blade in slashing and cutting them while firing his Darkness Sphere and Chaos Hyper Blast at them. Using three Wind Powers - Zen Air Slashes, Air Raid and Wind Storm; Saber defeated most of the soldiers. While surfing across the factory, Aqua unleashed both Water Torpedo Shards and Tsunami Blades in defeating all of them. Tailtech activated his Armor Mode for defense while firing his Typhoon Blaster at them.

Iron Brave and his Metal Armor Sentinels joined the battlefield as well. Iron Brave use his Iron Armored Broadsword in cutting down the Techbots one-by-one. Slashsteel, using his speed powers, he moved around while slashing and cutting down his enemies. Tanker fired his cannons and blasters at them to pieces.

Activating her Skate Mode, Icy armed with her Icing Skate Blades and the power of Elemental Element of Ice. She looked very angry and furious.

"Insulting my cook is one thing, but using me to turn my friends into addicted ponies and get exploded is another," Icy exclaimed in fury. She groaned, "I've wanted to be nice and gentle, but you really push me. No one mess with Icy and gets away with it. Prepare to face the wrath of the daughter of Frozen Sage!"

Using her Ice Beam, Icy froze up entire factory and the army as well. She skated while charging and attacking them one-by-one by firing her Frozen Shards, summoning the Soldiers of Ice to attack them, swinging her Icing Skate Blades and even summoning the Snowstorm Hail. They all got destroyed and shred to pieces.

Everyone and even Tech were in shock and scared of what they saw. Tech was about to run for his life, but got chased by Icy. Just as he was about to activated the Mystic Portal, she screamed in anger as she jumped and kicked him straight into it. The portal closed down.

"Nopony use me for evil!" Icy exclaimed in anger, "That is the worse insults I ever deal with! You hear me! I hate being evil!"

Everyone looked shock and scared while sweatdrops on their heads. They definitely don't want to get on her bad side again. Regardless, they have saved the day while shutting down the factory for good.

Icy turned and approached to her friends, "Looks like we've saved the day!"

"We sure did, kiddo," Aqua commented proudly, "Nice work."

"Eeyup. Shutting down the factory for good," Saber exclaimed firmly.

Iron Brave sighed, "Too bad that we didn't get some samples for Dr. Healing to work on the cure."

"Already got it," Tailtech said confidently as he shown the test tube of dark blue liquid. He smiled slyly, "I took it when Tech was busy bragging about his plan. As usual."

"Looks like we can get everyone back to normal," Twilight said in relief.

Applejack nodded, "Hopefully, we ended the ponies' craving for cookies. The last thing we wants is having more fat ponies in our team."

"Hopefully," Shadow Dragon agreed.

Icy nodded, "Yeah. Let's go home and cure everyone now! And this time, I'm gonna cook the right meal. My way!"

Everyone sans Iron Brave can't help but feel uneasy and scared about her cooking. Nevertheless, they did owe her for saving the day again.





At the Dark Mystic Palace's Throne Chamber, Dark Curse and the rest of Demon Generals and their minions have gathered including Tech. He is bowing fearfully to all of them as he made the reports about his mission. It has, once again, annoyed and frustrated them again. However, Dark Curse remained calm and firm.

"Unbelievable!" Crimson Skull exclaimed in anger at feared Tech. He groaned, "All Elemental Elements are now theirs!"

Sauron hissed, "We have failed."

Shredkiller roared in anger, "Curse them and their interference. If it weren't for them, we would have succeeded it!"

"Indeed!" Machine Dragoon growled a bit, "We must get them back now while we still can!"

Dragoclaw growled a bit, "Fight..."

Kishin Akuma turned and looked at Dark Curse, "What is your command, my lord? Shall we begin the invasion on the enemies to get it back?"

"You will do no such thing," Dark Curse said calmly, surprising his Demon Generals. He smirked, "In fact, I expected them to get the Elements before we do."

"Uh? Why?" Tech asked fearfully.

Dark Curse smirked evilly, "Because the heroes and their Elements of Harmony will play an important part for my next master plan. Together with our important ally - Storm King, we will succeed and achieved our mission! We will bring forth the destruction of good and new order under my command and powers. Demon God will return..."

"Ooh! Now I finally get it," Maul said amusingly, "I like it. We'll make sure we follow the plans till the end. And we'll make sure Storm King stick to it."

"Good. Tech, leave us." Dark Curse said calmly. Tech was annoyed and upset that he has to leave. The colt left the throne chamber. He cleared his throat as he face both Demon Generals and minions. He continued, "Now, here's how it goes..."





Thanks to Tailtech's retrieving the vial of cookie's sample, Dr. Healing was able to make the cure for ponies to drink and returned to their regular sizes and also stopped their cravings for more cookies again. Everything is back to normal.

At the Frozen Cold Capital's kitchen, Twilight and her friends including Iron Brave, Frozen Sage and Royal Solflare have been gathered as they're about to test and eat Icy's new recipe. While they really hated it, they owed her for saving the day, though Iron Brave enjoyed it.

"Glad to be back to normal," Laxtinct said happily, "I'd never want to eat some evil cookies again."

Rainbow groaned, "Tell me about it. And I thought that Laughing Cookies are bad enough."

"Yeah. I don't mind eating lots and lots of sweets," Pinkie said calmly, "But en evil sweets? That is so cruel and evil!"

"Well, at least, you're all back to normal," Applejack said calmly.

Twilight nodded, "Yeah. And also, tried to control your sweet appetite, next time. Or should I say, tried to be honest with pie?"

Rainbow, Pinkie and Laxtinct were annoyed, "Not funny."

"Well, it's not when we're gonna face the dangerous thing we feared the most," Aqua said in concern.

Saber sighed, "Don't remind me, Aqua. She did save the world. And we owe her one."

"Terrific..." Shadow Dragon groaned in annoyance, "I really hate it..."

"Well, it's better than eating evil cookies again," Tailtech said uneasily.

"Put the sock of it. And get ready for the best meal!" Iron Brave said confidently.

"You enjoy it too much," Frozen Sage said in annoyance.

Solflare sighed, "Well, he was the one, who make the call, mother."

The door opened at once, Icy levitated several and different kinds of dishes - spaghetti with vegetable balls and tomato sauces. She placed all of them before her friends and family. She smiled happily and proudly.

"All ready! Bon Appetit!" Icy exclaimed happily.

While most of ponies were uneasy and scared to look at the spaghetti, Iron Brave dug in and began eating up his meal. They all sighed in defeat. They grabbed the forks and spoons. They lifted up some few noodles up. They gulped in fear for the moment. They all put the food into it as they took the bite of it.

To their shock and surprise, the ponies find the spaghetti surprisingly good and delicious for the first time. They all quickly and rushed eating up the spaghetti happily and wildly. They have never taste something so good and delicious. Icy couldn't believe in her own eyes as she formed the tears of joy.

"I can't believe it," Icy said in surprise, "They really like it! I did it! I finally got ponies really like my food! YAY!"
