The Mane Six were in Twilight's castle, trying to figure out what to do. All of a sudden, their cutie-marks started glowing. They went to the map and saw that they were being called from Mount Everhoof!
"Mount Everhoof? But that's so far away!" said Fluttershy.
"We'll never get there!" said Rainbow Dash.
Twilight had an idea. She tried to teleport everyone but her magic didn't work! She thought up the next best idea.
Later, the Mane Six, Spike, Starlight, the royal sisters, and Discord were in a boat. It was very slow and Mount Everhoof was a long way away. But Twilight and her friends didn't give up easily.
“I’m bored,” whined Rainbow Dash.
“My hooves are killing me!” whined Rarity.
“I don’t know how much longer it will take,” said Twilight.
Grogar and the Mean Six watched through his orb.
“Things are going just as I’ve planned,” said Grogar. “Now you six, go after them!”
The Mean Six rushed to the boat to see the Mane Six.
“You know what to do,” said Midnight.
So they all worked together to try to push the boat over. But they couldn’t. The boat was too heavy.
“I give up,” said Pie Hater Dash.
“Me too,” said Nightmare Rarity.
“We can’t give up,” groaned Midnight. “We need to find a way to stop them. Grogar is counting on us.”
“Did y’all feel somethin’?” asked Applejack.
“I’ll go check,” said Twilight. She tried to fly behind the boat, but the Mean Six were gone!”
“That’s strange”, she said. “I could have sworn I felt something!”
“Maybe it was just our imaginations,” said Fluttershy.
“Could be,” said Twilight.
The Mean Six went back to Grogar. Grogar was ENRAGED.
“YOU SIX” he shouted, “ARE THE WORST IMBECILES I’VE EVER USED!”
“Used?!?” said a shocked Midnight Sparkle. “You mean you were using us as your tools?!?”
“That’s what I said,” said Grogar.
“THAT’S IT!” shouted Midnight Sparkle. “WE’RE LEAVING YOU. We are going to go and hatch our own plan to defeat Twilight and her friends.”
And without hesitation, all six of them left Grogar to do it all by himself.
The next best thing for Grogar to do was to call the evil Student Six. So he did.
“What do you want, Grogar?” asked evil Smoulder, sarcastically.
“Don’t talk to me like that, dragon,” Grogar said. “I want you six to go find Twilight and her friends.”
“Come on everycreature,” said evil Sandbar. They all left to find Twilight and her friends.
Now Grogar was finally on his own.
Meanwhile, Gusty, Cozy, Chrysalis, and Tirek were still looking for a way across the flood.
“See anything?” asked Cozy Glow.
“I can’t! It’s too cloudy!” Tirek said. “What do we do?”
“None of us can fly,” said Chrysalis.
All of a sudden, Tirek noticed something.
“How come you have those two little bumps on your back?” he asked Gusty.
Gusty sighed. “After I stole Grogar’s bell, Grogar tore of my wings. Then he trapped me in the cave along with his bell,” she said. Gusty sighed again.
Cozy, Chrysalis, and Tirek were in shock. Not even they were evil enough to tear off someone’s wings!
Cozy put her hoof on Gusty’s shoulder.
“It’s okay, Gusty,” she said. “We’re on your side now. We won’t hurt you.”
Gusty wiped her tears. “Thanks, friends. Now, how are we going to cross this?”
Meanwhile, The Mean Six were plotting out their plan in Grogar’s lair.
“Okay,” said Midnight Sparkle to the others. “Before they reach Mount Everhoof, we are all going to use our magic, flight, and strength to strangle them to pieces! You got that?”
The other Mean Five nodded firmly.
“But we aren’t going to do it just yet,” said Midnight. “I think I have a plan.” Then she began to chuckle maniacally.
Meanwhile, back at the boat, the evil Student Six finally found it.
Evil Gallus looked into the window of the boat.
“Boo,” he shouted.
Everyone in the boat started yelling.
“WE’RE HERE TO FIGHT!” the evil Student Six all shouted in unison.
“Please!” said Twilight, tearing up. I don’t want to fight you!”
“Too bad” said evil Ocellus, because we are going to fight you!”
They all went into the boat and everyone started to fight, but Twilight shouted “Everycreature, STOP!”
Everycreature looked at Twilight.
“Ocellus, Sandbar, Smoulder, Gallus, Silverstream, and Yona…” said Twilight. “You’re all my friends. You know that. I don’t know what is going on around here but it needs to stop now. I taught you all about friendship and it really hurts me to see you like this. So please, stop.”
All of a sudden, the evil Student Six were evil no more. They started to realize the errors of their ways. One by one, they transformed back into their normal selves.
“We were corrupted by Grogar,” explained Ocellus.
“But that’s impossible!” Rarity said. “Grogar was defeated long, long ago.
“Yeah,” said Applejack. “I agree with Rarity, and I’m certainly no liar!”
“We’re being honest! You have to believe us!” said Gallus.
But no one believed them.
Yona cleared her throat, for she was the most honest of all the Student Six.
“Evil blue sheep corrupted us. Then, he told us to invade Canterlot castle. We not want to, but evil blue sheep insist we do it. After that, we start to destroy and blow up part of Canterlot. We were brainwashed. And then, he tell us to find you. We find you and start destroying your boat until professor Sparkle told us to stop. So that the story.”
Everypony was silent. Instead of believing Yona, they all burst out into laughter.
“Oh man,” said Celestia. “That’s the funniest thing I’ve ever heard! You really think we would believe your story?!?”
Yona started to cry. Sandbar put his hoof on Yona’s shoulder.
“It’s okay Yona, it’s not your fault,” he said. “We need to show these ponies proof that Grogar brainwashed us.”
Discord started backing away. “ENOUGH TALK ABOUT GROGAR!” he shouted.
Everyone looked at him.
“The thing is” said Discord, “Grogar is m… papa.”
Everycreature gasped.
