At the School of Friendship,Starlight Glimmer and Rainbow Dash entered Twilight's Office...

" We have an emergency! " Starlight said.

" The students dropped out of the sky ! " Rainbow exclaimed .

"W-What ? Are they okay ? " Cozy  Glow asked , concerned for her fellow students safety .

" Slow down " Twilight said " What happened ? "

" I cast  a spell for our field trip to Cloudsdale " Starlight said " But  my spell just failed ! "

" We barely caught them in time " Rainbow Dash exclaimed .

"But you caught them , right Proffesor Rainbow Dash ? " Cozy asked , still concerned about her classmates .

" Of course we did " Rainbow said. This seemed to satisfy Cozy's worries about her classmates safety .

" I'm glad you're all okay , but I'm sure it's nothing to worry about , Starlight " Twilight said " Maybe you did your spell wrong. Let's take a look . "

Twilight tries to take a book from a shelf but it drops to the ground .

" I didn't drop that book " Twilight said .

" Maybe you did your spell wrong " Starlight said , sarcastically, obviously bothered by Twilight's comment from earlier .

Then they  hear a thud from outside .

" Ow ! " Rarity exclaimed .

The door opens and Fluttershy and Rarity come in .

" Rarity ran into the door " Fluttershy said .

" Proffesor Rarity ,are you okay ? " Cozy Glow asked .

" No ! My magic is go-o-one ! " Rarity said , sobbing  " I even had to use my hooves to coil my tail ! "

" Still think there's nothing to worry about ? " Rainbow Dash asked Twilight .

" That that doesn't make any sense " Twilight said " Magic can't just disappear . Something has to be causing this . "

" Um ,didn't we learn in class about a creature that eats magic ? Ter,Tee….Tir- something ? " Cozy Glow said .

Fluttershy gasped " Tirek ! "

" Isn't he trapped in Tartarus ? " Rainbow Dash asked .

The door opens and Spike runs in , gagging . Cozy sends him a concerned look while Rarity helps him get the letter out .

" Spike , what's wrong ? " Twilight asked .

" Thanks , Rarity . I've never had a letter get stuck before . " Spike said " It's from Princess Celestia ! We've all been called to an emergency meeting in Canterlot !  Look ! "

Twilight tries to levitate the scroll but her spell fails .

" I'm pretty sure I know what it is about " Twilight said .


Later , In Canterlot

" Throughout our city, ponies have been reporting tales of their magic failing . " Princess Celestia said " Spells going wrong . Potions not working . "

" Even raising the moon has become difficult . Are there similar troubles in Ponyville ? " Princess Luna asked Twilight .

" Yes . We experienced it first hoof . " Twilight replied.

" It's the same in my kingdom . " Princess Cadance said " The Crystal Heart seems safe for now , but I worry if this continues . "

Then the door opened and a mail pony came in with a letter .

" Letter for the princess from Star Swirl the Bearded ! " The mail pony said .

"Ah ! It is even more terrible than we feared ! " Princess Celestia exclaimed " Magic is disappearing all across Equestria ! "

The ponies  gasped .

" Star Swirl believes the power will drain from our land in three days . " Princess Celestia said " First , unicorn magic and spells will fail . "

" That's what's happening now ! " Starlight exclaimed .

" On the second day,creatures will lose their magical abilities " Princess Celestia continued .

Fluttershy gasped . " Oh no ! "

" But why is this happening now ? " Princess Cadance asked .

" That's the worst part " Princess Luna said " We have no idea "

" Has anypony checked on Tirek ? " Twilight asked .

" You mean the big, red, scary centaur who eats magic ? " Pinkie Pie asked her " Why would we wa— Ohhhh . Riiiiight . "

" If he has found some way to escape his prison or work from within it, he could be responsible for this " Princess Celestia said.

" That is the best explanation so far . " Princess Luna said  " Somepony should investigate "

"  We'll go . " Twilight said .

" Oh, no-no-no-no-no-no . " Rarity said " Not without us , you wo— Wait . Did you say "we" ? "

" I've finally learned that it's okay to count on your friends for help . " Twilight said " Um , you do want to come , right ? "

" Uh, duh ! " Rainbow Dash exclaimed .

" Thank you all . " Princess Celestia said  " We will search for ways to protect Equestria in your absence . " 

" Be careful . Tartarus has changed since you were there ." Princess Luna said " It now holds many dangerous creatures, and you won't be able to rely on your magic . "

"  With her friends by her side , she won't have to . " Applejack said .
