Previously, on My Little Pony...
Tirek: When we get there, we simply mingle with Princess Twilight and her friends.
Princess Twilight: Hey, you made it!
Princess Twilight (In a later scene): I'm afraid I'll have to go out for a while.
'Leo' (while Magma Burn listens): When we put in the next phase of our plan, you three can do as you please. In the meantime, we can't let our covers be blown.
Mean Twilight (voiceover): He did bring back my other... pathetic and useless... allies. Though there's more..."
(During the voiceover, it shows Luster, Magma, and Leo all being whisked away. Then it shows the same thing happening to Chrysalis, Cozy Glow, and Tirek)
Evil Chrysalis' voice: My, my, my... this is quite a predicament... (The reformed Legion of Doom's clones show themselves)
Grogar (while the Red Leo enters view): Let's watch as we fully put this plan into place...
...
Intro
...
Chrysalis, Tirek, and Cozy Glow struggled, while their evil duplicates went down to stand in front of them.
"This is what that evil Twilight meant..." Chrysalis realized. "Grogar didn't just revive those clones I made. He made clones of us! I knew this was going to happen, ever since that encounter with the Storm King..."
"You catch on very quick..." said the evil Chrysalis, with her green eyes and horn, her black chitin, the holes in her hair, limbs and wings, and her green crown. boots, and armor covering her barrel and back.
"I am a bit disappointed that we have less power than when we used Grogar's bell, even though it doesn't look like it for us, but..." the evil Cozy Glow, with the curly mane and rook cutie mark unlike her original counterpart, put her hoof around original Cozy. "...It's better than nothing."
"How did you-" Cozy started.
"And she said you catch on quick..." the evil Tirek, being the only one to look exactly like the original, pointed at the evil Chrysalis. "...Obviously, we have all of your past memories. We know your strengths... weaknesses..."
"And who you love..." the evil Chrysalis licked her lips, not taking her eyes off of Chrysalis.
Chrysalis knew who she was talking about.
"Oh, poor Chrysalis..." Evil Chrysalis continued. "It's been nearly a month, and yet you've never shared your feelings for Tirek... even forgotten them at times."
"And the same applies to you..." Evil Tirek poked Tirek in the chest with a claw. "You and your feelings for this... insect."
"Watch it!" Evil Chrysalis barked.
"Because of accepting friendship as magic, you've all gotten weaker..." Evil Tirek continued. "...softer! And we're here to fill that hole!"
"Equestria doesn't deserve softies like you..." Evil Chrysalis purred. "They deserve the true Queen Chrysalis, Lord Tirek, and Cozy Glow! And you don't deserve what you have..." Evil Chrysalis plucked the crown of of Chrysalis' head, and snapped it in half. "...not even that!"
"I go by Empress Cozy Glow, thank you," Evil Cozy Glow rolled her eyes.
"What are you going to do with us?" Cozy Glow asked.
"Well, I was hoping we could destroy you first, and be done with it..." Evil Cozy said. "But Leo's evil clone had the better idea..."
Chrysalis felt herself get pulled out of her prison, and right into the telekinetic embrace of her clone.
"Get revenge on our enemies... and make you watch!" Evil Chrysalis grinned.
"Not if we have magic!" Chrysalis determined, lighting her horn... before she suddenly felt her magic get pulled out of her horn.
Indeed, Evil Tirek started absorbing the magic of the reformed villains. As he did this, Chrysalis and Cozy's eyes went dull, and Tirek started to shrink.
"Not anymore..." Evil Cozy sinisterly grinned.
Finally, when Evil Tirek was done and began to grow, Evil Chrysalis teleported Chrysalis and herself outside, and Evil Cozy did the same with Cozy and Tirek. Moments after they appeared outside, Evil Tirek's horns burst out the window.
"That looks ridiculous..." Evil Chrysalis scoffed.
However, one orange spark later, Evil Tirek reappeared right behind them. And as soon as he did, Tirek was covered in an orange and brought to his evil counterpart.
"You know..." Evil Chrysalis spoke to Chrysalis. "I think Starlight Glimmer wants us to pay her a little... visit!"
"NO-"
Chrysalis couldn't finish her scream when they both vanished in a green spark.
"Golly," Evil Cozy began. "Judging from the time of week, I think we have to pay a visit at the Treehouse of Harmony... six faces are expecting us there!"
"You couldn't beat them! It's only you!" Cozy rebutted.
"Oh, please! One of them can change form, and the other breathes fire, but I clearly have more magic!"
Before Cozy could respond, they vanished in a red spark.
Evil Tirek glared at his counterpart.
"Shall we go say hi to our brother?" Evil Tirek smirked.
"If you think you can just teleport to some place like the other two, than you are sorely-"
Evil Tirek didn't want to hear it. He lit his horns and they vanished.
Meanwhile...
"That wasn't part of the plan! They should have waited until I told them to!!!" Grogar growled, before sighing and putting down the crystal ball. "You know what? It's fine! As long as they don't screw up and get manipulated, they're forgiven! And now..."
Grogar lifted his bell.
"You three have something that belongs to me..."
"Well, this is an issue..." Luster Dawn gulped. "With... no way out!"
Magma Burn continued to struggle in his chains.
Grogar grinned... but then stopped.
"Hey!" he looked at his bell and shook it. "Blasted thing isn't working! How is it not working?!"
"I guess your last battle deactivated your bell," Evil Leo suggested. "But it doesn't matter! They're all inferior to our power!"
He lit his horn, which started glowing a darker shade of red.
"So let's just cut to the chase..."
Magma Burn, who continued struggling in his chains, tried to use his magic. But Grogar was smart... the chains must have been restraining his magic.
Luster Dawn lowered her head.
And I struggled too.
"No," Grogar interjected. "Let's let them be there long enough to witness our rule of Equestria. We can destroy them later."
Red Leo growled.
"Fine..."
"That is, if they can escape," Grogar smiled.
"Wait, what?" Luster asked.
Just then, our chains faded, and we all fell to the ground.
"You said it yourself," Grogar said to my evil clone. "They are inferior, as we have learned. Two are unicorns, and the only alicorn against us hasn't mastered his abilities, that would still be weaker than ours anyway. So there's no way they can win..."
All of the enemies charged their magic.
"What do we do?" I ask. "Do we run?"
Magma Burn charges his own horn.
"We fight! Fight for our freedom!"
...
...
Twilight kept bucking at the door, which didn't do much since it was heavily locked, and she couldn't use magic because the room had a spell cast where her magic was restrained. This was a special cell, too... a full door, with a small window.
"Come on! Let me out!"
"Ah' know a key that can help you out..." the fake Applejack started to lie. "First, you have to complete a very long obstacle course... and then, you have to solve three riddles, and-"
A rock bounced off her head. She looked at the Mean Fluttershy, who stood between a sleeping fake Rainbow Dash and a bored Pinkie Pie.
"Oops? Did I do that?" fake Fluttershy snickered.
The fake Rarity swiped Twilight's crown off her head.
"Hey!" Twilight glared at the fake version of her friend.
"This is MINE!" the fake Rarity snickered devilishly.
"I have to get out of here..." Twilight muttered. "My friends are in danger! Equestria is in danger, and-"
BANG! BANG! CCCREEEAAAAK
Twilight was interrupted when she saw two sets of purple claws on the window, gripping at the door and tugging it off. It was torn off, and Spike stood in the doorway.
"Spike!" Twilight exclaimed. "You came!"
"Why wouldn't I come and save you after escaping capture?" Spike smiled.
"We need to hurry!" Twilight said after she got up. She grabbed her crown and dashed out of the door, with Spike in tow, before feeling the relief of her magic returning to her.
"I may have no magic..." she started. "...but I have my wits!"
"And a dragon!"
Soon, they got to the Throne Room. Her counterpart was there... her friends are not.
"You?!" Mean Twilight gasped. "And... you, too!?"
"What did you do with my friends!?" Twilight barked.
"They are in their own cells. They're fine! But how did you get out?!"
"I've never been a villain, but it's probably always a good idea to track down any enemies that get away."
"I guess you make a valid point..."
"Anyway, now that Twilight is free, and with me, it's time that we stop you!" Spike determined.
"I'm just keeping the seat warm for him..." Mean Twilight rolled her eyes.
"Him?" Twilight raised a brow. "Who's-"
A beam of magenta magic zoomed for Twilight, but she quickly dodged it.
Mean Twilight stepped down from her throne, horn lit.
"Alright then... have it your way!" Princess Twilight said, before lighting her horn as well. Spike flew into the air.
Starlight...
Starlight Glimmer yawned, as she continued looking at papers. Although being Headmare wasn't exactly a bad job, it does get tiring.
She went over to the window. The moon had recently rose, and it lit up the night sky beautifully, showing all the stars, and the green beam heading right for her.
Wait...
Starlight quickly dove out of the way, as the beam of magic collided with the wall of the school. When she got up, she saw Chrysalis suddenly fly into the wall, and roll onto the floor, before coming to a stop.
"Chrysalis?"
Chrysalis righted herself.
"Starlight! There's no time! You have to-"
Suddenly, a green spark burst in the room, and when it was gone, what Starlight saw was perplexing: another Chrysalis, this time bearing the appearance of her former foe from 20 years ago during the Battle of the Bell.
"Starlight Glimmer..." the other Chrysalis growled. "I've been waiting for this!"
"I- I don't understand..." Starlight uttered, backing away. "How is there-"
"A little thing called cloning, you pathetic sow!" Evil Chrysalis spat, before grabbing Starlight with her magic.
"You've already beaten me once..." Starlight's eyes moved to original Chrysalis. "It's safe to say that, right?"
Chrysalis nodded. "We have the same memories."
"Alright... you've already beaten me once in our rematch. Isn't that enough?"
"I beat you, but then you got away and I lost Equestria!" Evil Chrysalis hissed. "I'll feel satisfied when you've been destroyed, and Equestria's hopes have all been gone!"
Evil Chrysalis threw Starlight out the hole in the wall.
"NO!" Chrysalis yelled, using her remaining strength to run to the wall and stand alongside her evil twin.
But luckily, Chrysalis saw Starlight floating in the air, covered in the blue aura matching her horn.
"It's been 20 years since I fought the original Chrysalis, but I'm still quick!" Starlight said from the distance.
Evil Chrysalis hissed and zoomed out the window, but not before placing Chrysalis in magic chains.
"Hey!" Chrysalis yelled.
Evil Chrysalis dashed for Starlight, and went over her. Starlight lit her horn, and they both vanished.
Chrysalis had idea as to where they went.
Scorpan...
Scorpan was enjoying some peace to himself. It's become a part of his schedule to meditate every day in his small 'Hut of Meditation' for thirty minutes when the sun sets.
But he couldn't help but suddenly hear the loud hoofsteps that have been getting closer...
And closer...
And closer...
Scorpan opened his eyes and got up, and right as he did... the roof was torn off!
Scorpan's eyes went wide. Tirek, his recently reformed brother, towered over him at a huge height, pretty much as high as a tree! But what was more confusing was that a smaller, more pleading Tirek levitated near him.
"Brother! What is the meaning of this!"
"Scorpan!" the smaller Tirek wheezed. "Run!"
Scorpan sent a blast of magic the best he could to the large Tirek, before opening his wings and flying away. But he was no coward! So he didn't try to go very far.
"You can't fly forever, brother!" the large Tirek snarled, before sending a blast of large magic
"What is even going on?" Scorpan asked.
"I'll tell you what's going on..." large Tirek growled, sending another blast. "Thanks to Grogar, the more superior version of your pathetic brother has been remade! Now hold still..."
Scorpan started flying around, dodging blasts and making sure that he doesn't get struck by Evil Tirek. He'd send mini-blasts of his own, but they would either be deflected, or hit the monstrous Tirek with no avail.
"Alright, then... have it your way..."
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the shrine of King Vorak.
He turned, and fired a beam right at the shrine. It blew apart into pieces. Both Tirek and Scorpan gasped.
Scorpan stopped flying
"And now..." Evil Tirek brought Tirek in front of him. "...you!"
"WAIT!" Scorpan yelled. "Don't hurt him."
"Then you will surrender!"
Scorpan sighed. "Very well..."
Scorpan started to lower himself, and get a bit closer to Evil Tirek.
Evil Tirek grinned.
And then Scorpan launched a beam right at Evil Tirek. It struck him in the face, right at the jaw.
"ARGH!"
Just then, the glow around original Tirek vanished, and he started to fall. But luckily, Scorpan caught him.
The gargoyle's next task was to fly his weakened brother to safety.
"You were quite ignorant at times..." Scorpan muttered.
"I know," Tirek agreed. "Where will we go? What will we do?"
"I have an idea..."
An orange beam whizzed past them.
Scorpan looked back and saw Evil Tirek a distance away.
He started to try and make his way to them.
And with a gold spark, Scorpan and Tirek vanished.
Evil Tirek growled, and stomped a hoof. For a moment, it looked like he failed.
But then, what he saw in the woods in the distance, was a faint golden spark.
Evil Tirek grinned. And he began to make his way.
The Young 6...
Gallus, Smolder, and Silverstream were all playing cards in the Treehouse of Harmony, while Ocellus and Sandbar played checkers, with Yona watching.
"Got any fives?" Gallus asked.
Just then, the sound of light hoofsteps started to approach.
"Who's coming?" Ocellus asked.
"Probably Cozy Glow..." Smolder shrugged.
But just then, the pony Smolder mentioned suddenly went into the doorway as if she was thrown. She landed on her belly and slid along the crystal floor.
"Cozy Glow?" Sandbar said.
"And Cozy Glow!" said the voice of Cozy Glow... but it didn't even come from the filly's mouth!
Then, a similar-looking filly, with the only difference being the mane and a present cutie-mark, flew into the room.
All of the Young Six looked at Cozy, and then the curly-haired Cozy. And then back at Cozy.
"Yak confused," said Yona.
"She's an evil clone of me out to destroy you all..." Cozy summarized. "And I have no magic..."
The evil Cozy Glow lit her horn and sent a large beam at Silverstream.
"GAH, LOOK OUT!" she shrieked, diving out of the way before everycreature else.
"Scatter!" Sandbar called out.
The Young Six began to run in circles, dodging Cozy's beams the best they could, and being careful not to accidentally run into it and... get vaporized.
"ARGH! Stand still! You're all like ants!" Evil Cozy huffed. "Just... let me hit you! Or run into the blast!"
Cozy Glow noticed a nearby book, slightly overhanging off the shelf. She grabbed it with her mouth, turned her head, and with all her might, threw it the best she could.
With luck on her side, the book struck the back of evil Cozy's head.
"HEY!" Evil Cozy turned around, and sent a blast at regular Cozy. She briefly put on her fake smile. "Gee, looks like the goody-two shoes me thinks that she can be smart. Well guess what... how can a powerless filly beat a mighty filly like me?"
The fake smile returned to it's true nature... an evil frown.
And then she turned around.
The Young Six were running out of the Treehouse, and Evil Cozy could see the back of Yona before any trace of her enemies was gone.
"WHAT?!?"
Original Cozy then made a run for it, dodging a blast from the other Cozy.
"YOU CAN'T RUN!" Evil Cozy bellowed as she flew outside. When she came out, Cozy Glow vanished behind the bushes.
"Well, if there's one thing you should do when running..." Evil Cozy smirked, seeing the fact that there was a huge gap next to where Cozy ran. "... is to never have a yak nearby."
Battle with Grogar...
The battle was very wild, and it was amazing how it lasted for Leo, Luster Dawn, and Magma Burn.
First, they scattered, with some shield lifting and beams. But this was there things got heated.
"You can't scatter and expect us to get tired!" Sombra growled.
Magma Burn stopped, shield lifted.
"You want a fight?!?" he growled. "You get a fight!"
He lit his horn, and a small twister of orange started to appear from his horn.
Everyone stopped. It grew, before it split in two, separated from his horn, and formed two giant hooves of fire. He quickly brought the hooves down, right at the Storm King. He started to run, dodging the hit, but when it collided on the ground behind him, the force was still strong enough to send him back.
"Woah..." Leo whispered.
"Yep!" Luster nodded.
"Don't just stand there!" Evil Leo shrieked. "Destroy them!"
"Who said you were in charge?!" Grogar hissed, lighting his horns. He sent a blast at Leo, which he successfully blocked with a shield.
"Hey!" Leo smiled. "I did it! Wait..."
Leo saw Sombra light his horn and eyes, and Leo quickly hightailed it... right when a dome of black crystal formed.
"Phew..." Leo muttered. "That was close..."
"This won't last forever!" Grogar bellowed. "I'll get my revenge if it's the last thing I do!"
"Well, you all got distracted with my friend's abilities," Luster began. "I'm pretty sure you're losing your-"
Luster Dawn was quickly lifted into the air by Evil Leo.
"Enough of this!" he barked. "I'm going to destroy this mare!"
Magma Burn stopped in his tracks. When he caught a quick glimpse, he sprang into an action. Lighting his horn, a shield appeared around Luster, blocking the beam. Evil Leo hissed, and was immediately tackled by Magma.
Just like when Magma tackled Leo, he stood on top. This time, he did not hesitate to light his horn.
"Stay... away... from her!"
He brought a beam down on Evil Leo, who lifted a small shield in front of his face. With his might, he lifted the shield.
"Magma Burn, turn it off!!" Leo shrieked. "You can't rival an alicorn shield."
"I can do it..." Magma Burn strained. "I can-"
The beam burst, and although Magma Burn wasn't vaporized, he was sent back. Leo ran over to his aid. When he came over, he lifted his best shield, which already started deflecting a beam sent by the Storm King.
"Are you ok?" Leo asked.
Magma Burn groaned, struggling a bit.
"HEY, GUYS?!?" Luster Dawn yelled, every other villain closing in on her with charged horns. "I could use some help!"
"Look, you want to safe her, right?" I ask as the shield begins to crack. "So just trust me... we can get this done together!"
Magma Burn got up.
"I hope you have a plan..." he murmured.
I nodded.
"Either side," I whispered. "Ready?"
Magma nodded.
"Alright... now!"
I lowered the shield, and Magma Burn and I jumped separate directions. He quickly sent a blast at King Sombra, but missed... but he succeeded in getting his attention.
Sombra growled. Grogar and Evil Leo unleashed their beams on Luster, but Magma Burn quickly lifted a shield over Luster and dodged Sombra's attack.
"I can help!" Luster promised.
"Let me wait until I can distract them enough..." Magma groaned. "Use your magic to keep the shield stronger, and to also serve as backup if all goes wrong for me..."
The orange shield gained a partially golden glow.
Meanwhile, Leo kept dodging blows from the Storm King.
"We have to keep going... keep being smart..." Leo muttered. "Otherwise... it's all over!"
...
...
Princess Twilight kept up with the battle against her more evil counterpart. Even though parts of the throne room were getting destroyed, that was the least of Twilight's worries. She had a world to save.
Mean Twilight Sparkle continued unleashing beams of magic, with regular Twilight retaliating. Spike's fire attacks would always be deflected, and Mean Twilight would dodge any attack unleashed when the enemy she isn't dealing with attempts to get her.
"You're skills in magic and combat are admirable..." Mean Twilight said, after a few minutes of a battle montage. "But with our equal intelligence, and equal abilities at magic, this battle will last until one of us tricks the other, or has a misstep!"
Mean Twilight sent a blast at Spike, which he dodged. Neither Spike or Twilight didn't want to damage the throne room any more.
Tirek and Scorpan...
A boulder blew apart as Evil Tirek struck it with magic.
The woods, which bordered Scorpan's home, was annoyingly filled with hiding places. Evil Tirek continued to uproot trees, and toss them aside.
But then, when he got a tree, he found one of the ones he was looking for.
"There you are!" Evil Tirek bellowed to his smaller duplicate, and then sent large beam of magic down. Tirek leapt out of the way. He kept running, dodging attacks, and all that while his evil twin tried to attack him. Soon, Evil Tirek got impatient, and telekinetically grabbed Tirek.
"You think you're so quick..." he snarled. "Where's Scorpan?"
"Far from here," Tirek groaned. "He put me here and left."
"That's unfortunate... l guess no matter what side you're on, your... no... our brother will always be a traitor."
"Scorpan was never a traitor..."
"Either way, you're helpless..." Evil Tirek said. "And because you lost your ability to drain magic..."
Evil Tirek lifted his claws, and an orange orb of magic appeared.
"...Your story ends here..."
Tirek took a deep breath.
"I may not be able to drain magic..." Tirek began. "But I know someone who still is."
"What?" Evil Tirek raised an eyebrow.
And then he started to come to his senses... and started to feel weaker.
He turned around, and noticed a trail of magic coming from above him... and heading for Scorpan, his mouth wide open, and the magic going inside.
Evil Tirek caught on: Scorpan was draining his magic!
Evil Tirek growled, looked at Regular Tirek, smirked, and dropped him.
Scorpan quickly raised his own arm, and a golden shield wrapped around Tirek, who landed in the trees. unharmed.
Evil Tirek stomped closer, starting to appear weaker... and weaker...
He raised his claws, and an orange orb appeared... but it was no use! It fizzled out of existence, especially because he couldn't attack when his magic was being drained.
Seconds later, the trail came to an end. Scorpan started to grow. Evil Tirek started to shrink. When it all ended, Scorpan stopped growing when he was, at an estimate, nearly a yard taller than Evil Tirek.
Tirek stepped out of hiding while his evil clone collapsed.
"My magic..." he wheezed.
"You took the magic he already had?" Tirek asked.
"It was for the best, brother," Scorpan explained.
"Very well..." Tirek nodded.
Scorpan then cast a spell, and a cage formed over evil Tirek.
"I believe this, belongs to you..."
Scorpan opened his mouth, and a flow of orange magic flew out, and went for Tirek. It went to the middle of his horns, and an orange orb of magic glowed. Tirek's size began to increase... and when it was over, Scorpan was smaller, and Tirek was the same size he already was when the day started. He flexed his muscles, and kissed a bicep.
"It's good to be back..." he grinned.
"Would you like his magic, as well?" Scorpan offered.
"Keep it," Tirek insisted. "I'm happy with where I am. Anyway, we're not done, yet. Half of the magic you possess belongs to Chrysalis and Cozy."
"Do you know where they are?"
"Not exactly... but I have some ideas."
Chrysalis...
Chrysalis wiggled in the chains, wanting to get out. Sadly, the chains stayed even after her evil twin left. They weren't the kind that faded when the one casting the spell got distracted... it was a spell itself.
"I have to..." she mumbled.
It was no use.
"Please Starlight... still be alright... if I can save you, at least..."
POOF!
The faint sound of somepony or creature teleporting occurred outside the door. The door was then torn away, and a majority of the wall around it. Tirek was there.
"Chrysalis!"
"Wait... which Tirek are you?..." Chrysalis asked, as the centaur came over.
"The one that's about to let you go..." he said, lighting his horns.
The chains started to glow orange, before fading away into nothing.
"Good thing there's counter spells," Tirek mumbled.
Chrysalis leapt and hugged Tirek.
"Thank you..." she mumbled. She leaned back to look at Tirek. "Listen, Tirek... what was said earlier... I-"
Just then, Tirek gave Chrysalis a quick smooch on the lips.
"Me too..." he nodded. "Probably as long as you have..."
Chrysalis let the sudden realization settle in, before she latched on Tirek again.
"Listen, we need to help Starlight!" Chrysalis determined. "Wait... how did you get your magic back?"
"My brother, Scorpan, worked with me and we tricked the other me. He drained all his magic, and gave mine back. He gave mine back. He still has yours, and Cozy's..."
"Where is he?" Chrysalis asked.
"He's going to help the kid...we went our separate ways because if we both went at once, one of you may have gotten unlucky," Tirek answered. "Now... where is Starlight?"
Mountains...
The battle continued to rage on. Evil Chrysalis and Starlight gave it their all, launching blasts of magic, or dodging them.
Soon, Starlight managed to land a hit on Chrysalis. She fell to the ground. She got up, hissed, and started to fly.
"I'll never hold back!" Evil Chrysalis hissed. "Even reformation won't stop me from coming-"
POOF!
Just then, in an orange spark, Tirek and Chrysalis showed up.
"So..." Evil Chrysalis turned to face her two new foes. "It looks like the Tirek who rightfully ignores friendship failed in his task to destroy you."
"He has... and I even got my magic back..." Tirek pounded his fists. "And now I'm here with her to finish you off, next..."
"Good luck with that..." Evil Chrysalis scoffed. "I doubt she has her magic, back."
"I don't..." Chrysalis growled, while Starlight appeared next to her in a blue spark. "But I can still put up a fight..."
Evil Chrysalis lit her horn. "Go ahead and try..."
Battle with Grogar...
It was... amazing, how they all still lasted. Luster's shield was gone. They all unleashed our attacks.
Grogar launched a beam at Leo. He dodged.
"How... are you still... going?!" the red Leo bellowed when launching a beam at Luster and missing. "You know what? Enough of this!"
He lit his horn, and Luster was enveloped in red magic. She was tossed to the wall.
Evil Leo then turned, and did the same with Original Leo. After that, Evil Leo saw Magma Burn hit King Sombra with his magic. Magma was grabbed by Evil Leo's magic, and tossed over to the wall.
"Now that's how to take care of them..." Evil Leo snarled, when Grogar, Sombra, and the Storm King came over.
"Now... I think it is a good time to destroy you now..." Grogar's horns lit, and everyone else ignited their magic.
"Shield!" Leo yelled.
And when the beam was launched, Leo lifted a shield. Luster and Magma were quick to help
Cozy...
Evil Cozy Glow continued to follow the gapped trail that Yona left behind.
"I know you're here somewhere..." she grumbled.
Rustle, rustle
Evil Cozy stopped. She noticed that a nearby bush moved. She smirked.
The bushes emitted a ruby glow, and they were parted, revealing Cozy Glow.
"Found you!" Evil Cozy exclaimed, before firing a beam.
Cozy dove forward. Right when evil Cozy turned around, a giant green blob of slime dropped down on her, trapping her.
All of the Young Six, save for Ocellus, poked their heads out of the bushes.
"Nice one, Ocellus!" Gallus said.
It didn't last long... Evil Cozy's horn went red, before Smooze Ocellus burst all over the place.
"Well, that was graphic..." Smolder muttered.
Pieces of Smooze ocellus grouped together, before it turned back into Ocellus. She coughed.
"You really underestimate alicorn power..." she sneered.
Everyone tried to run, but a wall of ruby magic blocked them.
"Now say hello to my little friend..." Evil Cozy grinned, a ruby ball of magic forming.
"Well..." Cozy muttered. It was nice to fight with you all.
Stomp! Stomp! STOMP!
POOF
Nearby, a stomping sound could be heard, before two sparks of orange and gold burst. Scorpan stood, ready to fight.
"Hey!" Evil Cozy barked. "What are you doing here?!"
"Here to help out the little one," Scorpan said.
"Scorpan! How did you get here?" Cozy asked.
"My brother and I outsmarted my more powerful double, then went to the treehouse to look for you. I have your magic! Quick! Gather!"
The Young Six got close to Scorpan, along with Cozy Glow. Scorpan quickly lifted a shield, right when Evil Cozy launched a powerful beam at it. The shield began to crack... and then it was lowered! Instead of Evil Cozy's beam hitting everyone, it was instead countered by a similar-colored beam.
Cozy Glow continued to use her might to counter the beam. The Young Six, and a smaller Scorpan, stood.
"You think you're so powerful!" Evil Cozy growled.
"Allow me to insist..." Scorpan insisted.
"No... I... I can do this!" Cozy determined, her beam not moving closer or farther. "Because... this is how I choose to live! If I can get through this night, I will be sure that Equestria stays a safe haven..."
And Cozy's flank began to glow.
"Wait... what??!" Evil Cozy burst, confused.
And when the light on Cozy's flank burst, the beam suddenly went all-out, fighting back strongly with Evil Cozy's beam.
When it got to Evil Cozy's horn, it burst, sending her to the ground.
Cozy Glow lowered to the ground.
"Well, that's confusing..." Cozy heard Smolder say.
"What?" Cozy asked.
"Your cutie mark!" Ocellus said.
Cozy looked, and she got immediately confused. On her flank was... a rook? Impossible... she couldn't have a rook!
"I..." Cozy stood up. "I don't understand!"
Sandbar rubbed a hoof on his chin.
"Well... maybe... it may look like it's a rook... but it also resembles a castle! See the window and door?"
Sandbar pointed at the window and door that wasn't originally there.
"Castles provide safe havens..." Cozy muttered. "I think... I think it's supposed to mean that I'm supposed to keep Equestria.. a safe place? This is a bit confusing..."
Scorpan approached Evil Cozy, who wearily stood up. She growled, opened her wings, and flew up... before hitting a golden shield.
Scorpan's arms were crossed. Evil Cozy, who sheepishly chuckled.
Chrysalis...
The battle continued. Chrysalis ran around, serving as a diversion when Evil Chrysalis spots her, and starts attempting to catch her, and successfully dodging blasts from Tirek and Starlight. When she gives up, it went to Tirek vs. Evil Chrysalis, and then Tirek was replaced with Starlight.
Starlight, yet again, hit Evil Chrysalis with a blast. When Evil Chrysalis got up, she hissed, and sprang for Starlight... before a blast from Tirek knocked her to the ground.
"You really need to not get clouded with revenge..." Chrysalis muttered, stepping forward while Tirek formed a dome-cage on her.
Evil Chrysalis leapt at her enemies, and collided with the cage.
"It will stay when we leave... it will only fade away when I get rid of it," Tirek assured. "Now... come with me. My brother and I arranged a spot to meet when this was over with..."
"I'll come with!" Starlight said.
"Very well..." Tirek nods. He pointed at Evil Chrysalis. "I'll be back..." he promised.
Evil Chrysalis mumbled under her breath.
Canterlot...
Tirek, Chrysalis, and Starlight appeared. Nearby stood Scorpan, Cozy Glow, and the Young Six. All eight of them were looking up.
They ran over.
"Chrysalis! Tirek!" Cozy smiled.
"I have been notified that you have my magic," Chrysalis said.
"Allow me..." said Scorpan, before he returned the magic to Chrysalis. Chrysalis smiled and lit her horn, and Scorpan got even smaller.
"Anyway, what's been happening?" Starlight asked. "You were all watching-"
"Look!" Silverstream pointed up.
Everyone else looked up.
And they saw the two Twilights battling, along with Spike.
"Should we help?" Chrysalis asked, starting to hover.
"I think it's best..." Scorpan said.
Cozy and Scorpan started to hover too. They flew up... right when one of the Twilights was knocked into Canterlot castle.
Chrysalis, Cozy, and Scorpan stopped flying.
"Which one was that?"
They saw the victorious Twilight and Spike see them, and fly down to them. With the less-dull colors and the fact she wasn't attacking Spike, it became clear that it was their Twilight.
"You're okay!" she smiled.
"Same with you," said Chrysalis.
Twilight nudged her head to the castle. "Let's head inside..." she said. "We better restrain this... evil me, and then we're going to talk."
"Very well," Scorpan said.
They all flew to the castle, except Chrysalis, who returned to Tirek.
Meanwhile...
The shield still held up. But the magic unleashed made it crack. But very slowly. With the amount of strength in their magic, it was amazing that the shield still held up... in spite of cracking.
"What are we going to do now?" Luster asked.
"Its easy... grab on!" I order.
"Why?" Magma asked.
"Just do it! And turn off your shield magic"
Luster and Magma grabbed on. Their horns dimmed, and the shield began to crack quicker.
I lit my own horn. Although I didn't get good sight of this room, hopefully it would work.
A bright flash of hazel light burst, and at the same time, I put the shield spell out of my mind.
So when we appeared outside the shield and away from the beam, and near the large arch, the shield immediately faded away, and the beam struck the wall. Hard.
"Stop! STOP!" I heard the evil me shrieked.
The wall started to crack. Cracks went along the wall and to the ceiling.
We started to run.
"AFTER THEM!" I heard Grogar shriek.
And we heard the walls begin to crumble.
Third-person/pony view...
As soon as Grogar shrieked, a large boulder crashed near him.
All the villains looked up. The whole room began to crumble.
Evil Leo brought all villains close to him.
"WHAT IS THE-" Grogar began.
Evil Leo teleported them all away.
Back to Leo and the others...
We ran. We ran without looking back. Everything crumbled.
And we saw it. We saw a light.
"TELEPORT!" Luster shrieked.
"I'M STILL NEW AT THIS! I CAN'T THINK STRAIGHT!" I say.
"BUT WHAT ABOUT WITH THE SHIELD?" Magma yelled.
"I COULD FOCUS MORE!"
We ran. And we all leapt when we were close.
We landed on our bellies... right when everything crumbled behind us.
We got up. In front of us, was a desert landscape.
We turned around and saw the ruins.
"So... that's where we were?" Luster asked. "In a desert... lair?"
"I guess..." I shrug.
"But not anymore," said Magma Burn.
"Well... let's head home."
I lit my horn... and nothing happened.
"What's wrong?" Luster asked.
"I... I can't go home..." I realized. "The distance you can teleport depends on how powerful you are... and since I haven't perfected my magic yet... we can only teleport so far... which means..."
"We have to go back on hoof..." Magma said.
Well shoot!
Canterlot...
The cell door closed on Mean Twilight Sparkle, who refused to look at her victorious foes. The rest of the Mean 6 were in the cell, and the rest of the Mane 6, and Spike, stood alongside them.
"So... what now?" Tirek asked.
"I don't know... If there is one thing I should have learned by now, is that harmony doesn’t last forever."
"Even if that’s the case, we’re always going to fight for it," Cozy determined. "Because what my new cutie mark tells me, is that I provide a safe haven!"
"Hey, good job on the cutie mark," Chrysalis said.
"Goodness, that cell was dreadful!" Rarity said. "I'm just glad to be out..."
"Wait a minute!" Cozy realized. "Leo! We don't know where he is!"
Everyone looked at each other.
"Luster and Magma Burn are also gone... they may or may not be with them," Twilight explained.
"And obviously, it would take more than some evil version of Leo to fight the three of them," Spike said.
"So maybe... Grogar and the others were there too?" Chrysalis said.
"Now, now... we don't know for certain!" Princess Twilight assured. "To be safe, I'll find a way to make sure that Leo, Luster, and Magma are alright without putting anyone in danger. We can conduct a search party."
"I'm worried..." Cozy sat down.
Fluttershy came over and placed a hoof on Cozy.
"It's going to be okay," she slightly smiled.
Cozy lowered her head.
And just then, the cell containing Mean Twilight and the others glowed yellow. Everyone looked at the cell.
When the glow was gone, so were those who were in the cell.
"Well... that was unexpected..." said Tirek.
Lair...
The powerless Evil Tirek and Evil Cozy Glow were both slumped in their seats, while Chrysalis muttered Celestia knows what.
The yellow glow from a hallway caught their attention. When it vanished, a magenta spark burst, and the evil Twilight stood.
"You two don't look good," she said.
"That blasted gargoyle took my magic!" Evil Cozy whined. She pointed at evil Tirek. "His too!"
"Well... that's a shame! I got lucky," Mean Twilight smirked.
"Me too..." Evil Chrysalis said, before going back to muttering.
"So... where are the others?"
"Sombra and the Storm King are in their rooms," Evil Cozy explained. "The other two are upstairs... though we don't know why. The red Leo took him upstairs to discuss our next plan."
Upstairs...
Evil Leo sat... Expressionless. For a few minutes, at least. But at last, he got up, and went over to a cabinet. He opened it and smiled... at the glowing Bewitching Bell that was inside.
He then lit his horn and teleported to one of the high walkways outside the lair.
"Oh, poor... poor Grogar..." Evil Leo said, to the frozen Grogar statue with an infuriated expression. "You should be careful who you create, because they'll be smart enough to put on an act. And you should especially remember to cast a spell on your bell to stop me from getting it in your sleep and replacing it with a fake... I guess age can do that..."
Evil Leo remembered what he did. When he took Grogar upstairs, and got ridiculed for his flaws, he quickly snatched the bell out of the cabinet. With a teleportation spell to avoid Grogar's magic ammunition, he was able to drain Grogar's magic, from him and the collar.
He went back to reality.
"You've had your fun being one of the most powerful beings in Equestria..." he smirked. "And now... it's my turn!"
"Leo? Evil Leo?" he heard the voice of Evil Cozy as she found him where you stood.
"Yes?" he said, not looking behind him.
"I was just look- wait... is that-"
"Grogar's statue..." Evil Leo looked behind him.
"What did you do?" Evil Cozy asked.
"I took my place as the rightful leader... a place that should have been mine long ago... go return with your allies..."
Evil Cozy turned.
"Oh, but one more thing..." he said, causing Evil Cozy to stop and turn her head.
Evil Leo's expression finally cracked into a small smile. "Call me Sephtis."
