My Little Pony: The Meltdown

Setting Up Camp; A New Threat

Meanwhile, back at the glacier, most of it has been broken off. Another huge crack formed and more waterfalls had as well.

Then, a spiky fin appeared out of the pool formed by the waterfalls. Then, it went under the water again.

The owner of the fin, then, jumped out of the water and plopped on land. It was the sea monster from before.

He had awoken from his hibernation within the ice block. He maintained his balance and collected where he was at. He then let out a huge, thunderous roar.

It was heard for about a mile. He looked around, observing his new home. He admired the beautiful landscape. He then looked back at the huge, melting glacier.

His stomach then growled. He was hungry and he definitely needed something to eat.

Even though he could walk on land, he was better in the water and sort of cumbersome on land. He then saw the hoof prints of the ponies.

He didn't know what they were or what they belonged to but, at least he knew they belonged to a creature he could eat.

He didn't want to crawl on land the whole time, so he looked around for a river he could swim in.

He eventually found one, jumped in it and followed it and his began his quest for food and exploration of this new world.


Starlight and Spike were having a little trouble. The ponies had collapsed from walking for so long. "Come on, everypony. We can't stop now." Starlight said.

"We've been walking for hours" a pony complained. "Can we rest for a few hours" another requested. Starlight looked at the sun. It was almost sundown.

Starlight thought about it. She groaned but she knew it was going to get dark soon. "Alright, we'll rest here for the night." Starlight agreed.

Everypony sighed in relief. "Good choice there" Spike said. "Thanks Spike. I have some experience" Starlight replied. Spike rolled his eyes realizing what she meant.


The Mane 6 were continuing on with their adventure. Twilight looked up at the sky and the sun was no longer visible. The stars were starting to become visible.

"Alright, girls. Let's rest here for the night" Twilight said. They all agreed. Immediately, Twilight started setting up camp. She grabbed logs for everypony to sit on.

Applejack, Rainbow, Pinkie, and Rarity started grabbing wood for the fire. Fluttershy just stood there, terrified of the dark Everfree Forest.

She was not going to leave camp, no matter what. Rainbow and Applejack grabbed every stick they could find. Pinkie was looking for a perfect stick.

"Pinkie, the objective is to get every stick you can find, not find the perfect sticks." Applejack informed her.

"I know, Applejack, but I need a perfect stick." Pinkie said. "For?" Rainbow asked. "You'll see" Pinkie said.

"Well at least she's not like Rarity" Rainbow whispered to Applejack, which she then gestured to Rarity.

Applejack looked at Rarity who was sorting through a pile of stick.

"Too bold, too wide, too narrow, too bumpy..." Rarity said sorting through, trying to find the perfect sticks.

They both rolled their eyes, giggled a little bit, and went back to camp. Pinkie, meanwhile, was looking for the perfect stick and found it.

It was part of a fallen tree, but it would do. She soon was having a tug of war with it. She finally managed to pull it out.

The force of her trying to pull it out launched her back and she hit the ground. She was luckily okay, and the stick was okay as well.

She was so happy that it didn't break. She picked the stick up and went back to camp with a big smile across her face.

Everyone came back and placed their sticks where the fire would be.

Rainbow and Applejack sat on a log next to each other, while Pinkie and Fluttershy sat on the log next to theirs. Rarity brushed her log off, making sure it was clean.

Twilight lit the fire with her magic, and a big, warm, toasty fired appeared with in seconds.

The sky was now completely dark and the moon was starting to become visible. Pinkie immediately grabbed her bag and pulled out a bag of marshmallows.

"That's what you needed a perfect stick for? Marshmallows!?" Rainbow said. "What? It would make it better." Pinkie said happily. Rainbow face palmed with her hoof.

"Anyone want a marshmallow?" Pinkie asked. "Sure" Fluttershy said. "Definitely" Rainbow said. "You bett'cha ya" Applejack said. "Might as well" Rarity said.

"Why not" Twilight said. They all took a marshmallow.

Applejack and Rainbow immediately ate the whole thing in their mouth, Fluttershy took little nibbles, Rarity ate it politely, and Twilight ate it anyone normally would.

Pinkie put hers on her perfect stick and held over the fire. It was ready within seconds. She then took it and plopped the whole thing in her mouth.

Rainbow let out a huge yawn. "I think me and Rainbow are gonna hit the hay" Applejack said. "Same here" Fluttershy said.

"Me three" Rarity said taking out her sleeping mask. "Alright, I'm going to stay up a little longer. Once Celestia raises the sun, were heading out" Twilight said.

They all nodded and went to sleep. Rainbow immediately fell asleep, Applejack put her hat over her head, Fluttershy went to sleep, adjusting herself a little bit, and Rarity put her sleeping mask over her eyes.

"Pinkie, aren't you going to sleep?" Twilight asked Pinkie. "Yeah, I'm just gonna eat a few more marshmallows" Pinkie replied.

Twilight looked up at the moon, and was wandering what Spike and Starlight were up to. "I hope you're alright, Spike." Twilight said to herself.

She then heard snoring and looked behind her. Pinkie was fast asleep with marshmallow all over her mouth and a few marshmallows on the ground as well.

Twilight shook her head and giggled a little bit. "Oh, Pinkie" she said to herself, giggling a little bit.

Then she looked at the moon again, resting her head on her log, before slowly dozing off.


Spike was looking at the same moon as Twilight. He was thinking about what Twilight and the Mane 6 were up to, especially Rarity.

He was hoping they were all alright. His thoughts were interrupted by Starlight. "Spike? What are you doing up?" She asked him.

"I'm just worried about Twilight and the others" Spike replied. "Oh, you know them. They'll make it. I'm sure of it." Starlight said. Spike nodded in agreement.

"Starlight? Where'd you go?" Trixie called. "Shhh! You're gonna wake up everypony." Starlight said quietly. Trixie put her hoof over her mouth.

"Sorry" Trixie said quietly. "What are you doing up" Trixie asked. "I'm checking on Spike" Starlight replied. "Why may I ask?" Trixie asked.

"He's missing Twilight and the others" Starlight replied. "Oh...where are they?" Trixie asked. "I'll explain everything later" Starlight said.

"You should get back to sleep because we still got a lot of ground to still cover tomorrow."

"Alright. Just wanted to see what you were doing" Trixie said before she went back to her cart to go back to sleep. Starlight shook her head and went back to Spike.

"Are you going to sleep, Spike?" Starlight asked. "Yeah. I'm just gonna stay up for a few more minutes" Spike replied.

"Alright. Just make sure that you go to sleep soon" Starlight said, "We still got a long way till we reach the boat." Spike nodded his head in response.

Starlight then walked away to go back to sleep. Spike took one last look at the moon before slowly dozing off.
