Friendship is Magic, Part 2

This story is my version of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, featuring both characters crossovered from different shows and games and characters I made up. I don't own the canon characters or crossover characters. All Characters belong to their rightful owners.

It was truly a terrible situation. Princess Celestia was missing, and in her place was Nigtmare Moon. After so many centuries, she had returned to bring eternal night.

Nightmare Moon cackled evilly, as the ponies and other creatures of Ponyville stared in horror. But Mayor Mare and several others were having none of it. "Seize her!" she called out. "Only she knows where the princess is!" Seeveral Pegasi from the Canterlot Royal guard charged, as well as a few Ponyville Troopers that open fired nets from their guns. From the crowd, a large anthropomorphic shark with glasses and a labcoat charged at her with a laser gun in each hand. But Nightmare Moon zapped them with lightning. "Stand back, you foals!" She demanded, and disappeared in a flurry of sparkling blue stardust that pushed past the panicking crowd and out the door.

Raibow Dash flew off despite Applejack holding her back by the tail. "Come back here!" she demanded, but it was too late. Nightmare Moon was long gone. And to her shock, it was still dark out, the stars and moon still out and shining bright. "Nighttime? Forever?" she panted. Then she noticed Rayman dragging Twilight Sparkle and Spike through town towards Golden Oaks Library. "Where are they going?" She wondered.

At the library, Twilight had laid Spike to rest in his bed. He was still frazzled despite not being able to stay awake. "Uh... We gotta stop Nightmare!..." he cried, before falling back over and snoring. Twilight laid a blanket on him. "You've been up all night, Spike. You are a baby dragon after all." she said with a smile. But looking at him sleep had to wait. She had to stop Nightmare Moon. Rayman stood in the corner, just watching. Twilight glared at him. IT was obvious he knew more about this than her. He simply pointed to the books, and she began rummaging through them.

"Elements, elements, elements... Ugh! How can I stop Nightmare Moon without the Elements of Harmony?" She asked Rayman. Rayman shook his head. "You can't. You need to find them. But you can't do so alone." Before he could say anymore, Rainbow Dash flew in and went up to his face. "And just what are the Elements of Harmony? And how did you know about Nightmare Moon, huh? Are you a spy?" she demanded suspicously. Rayman simply huffed and pushed her away. "Rainbow, you've known me since you first came to Ponyville. Do you really think I'm a spy? Or have you forgotten who has kept your flank from certain destruction on a regular basis?" This caused Rainbow Dash to drop down and shuffle her hooves. Now she felt guilty.

"Simmer down, Sally. He ain't no spy." Twilight, Rayman and Rainbow Dash turned to the source of the voice. It was Applejack, with Pinkie Pie, Jacob Wheeler, Fluttershy, Rarity, Frisk and Sans right behind her. "But he sure knows what's going on. Don't you, Rayman?" Rayman nodded. "Yes. And to a degree, so does Twilight." All eyes turned to the two for an explanation. Rayman sighed. "Nightmare Moon was not always a villain. She was once the co-ruler of Equestria. But jealousy allowed darkness to stain her. For a thousand years she has been trapped on the moon thanks to Celestia. Now she's back, as prophesized. As you all know, I used to be Celestia's bodyguard. But before Nightmare Moon became evil, I was her bodyguard too." This caused everyone in the room to gasp in shock, minus Sans, who found this interesting. "I also had a hand in her banishment. When I quit my job, Celestia entrusted me to protect Ponyville from threats. But I knew the time would eventually come for me to take a stand. That's where Twilight comes in."

Twilight overcame her shock, and remembered her problem. "I read all about the prediction of Nightmare Moon. Some mysterious objects called the Elements of Harmony are the only things that can stop her, but I don't know what they are, where to find them; I don't even know what they do!" Rayman pointed to the shelf on the right. "Check 'The Elements of Harmony: A Reference Guide.' over there." Twilight zoomed over to the book, then glared at Rayman. "Why didn't you tell me sooner?!" Rayman poked her head "You should have noticed it sooner. It was under 'E'!" "Oh." Twilight said. She felt stupid now.

Twilight checked the book and began to read." There are ten Elements of Harmony, but only nine are known: Kindness, Determination, Laughter, Courage, Generosity, Hope, Honesty, Reliability and Loyalty. The tenth is a complete mystery. It is said, the last known location of the five elements was in the ancient castle of the royal pony sisters. It is located in what is now-"

"The Everfree Forest!" Everyone was now standing at the entrance to the forest in particular. It was a very thick and dense forest, and scary-looking too. But to save their world, they had to go inside. Pinkie suddenly sprang up. "Whee! Let's go!" she said and began to enter, but Twilight stopped her. "Not so fast. Look, I appreciate the offer, but I'd really rather do this on my own." Before she could say anything else, the others started to enter. "No can do, sugarcube." Applejack said. "e sure ain't lettin' any friend of ours go into that creepy place alone. We're stickin' to you like caramel on a candy apple." Everybody agreed. Rayman looked at Twilight. "We will definitely need their help. You cannot do this alone. Nobody can. You'll need the help of your friends." Twilight tensed at the word friends. But she went on in anyway.

As the six ponies, two humans, skeleton and Thingamajig trekked through the forest, they kept a watchful eye out. Strange sounds filled the air in the forest, which seemed to get thicker as they went along the path. Twilight gulped at the forest. Everyone was on edge. Except for Rayman, Frisk, and Sans, who was too lazy to be scared. Twilight shivered. "So, none of you have been in here before?" Rarity shivered. "Ugh, heavens no! Just look at it - it's dreadful." Applejack nodded. "And it ain't natural. Folks say it don't work the same as Equestria." Sans huffed at this in an annoyed way, the grin on his face souring into a frown. "What's that supposed to mean?" he said, everyone put off by his tone. He usually wasn't so grumpy. "Well, look at it!" Applejack said. "In this place, Plant's grow on their own, animals care for themselves, and clouds move all on their own!" This caused the ponies to become nervous. Sans grunted in frustration. "And how's that unnatural?!" he asked in an annoyed tone. This caused the ponies to look in confusion. Frisk put her hand on Sans's shoulder, instantly calming him down. "Relax, Sans. Remember, this is a different dimension. The laws of physics are different here." Twilight was confused. "So this doesn't happen in your world?" she asked. Rayman gave her a serious look. "Twilight, your world is the only dimension in which it does happen. No other dimension has weather changed manually, animals cared for by 0other creatures, and seasons changed manually. In fact, in every other dimension, day and night happen on their own too." This caused the ponies to gasp in shock. Jacob laughed at their reactions. "You Ponies are weird!" he laughed. Nobody noticed a blue stardust-like mist pass under the cliff they were on and phase through the rock surface. Rayman gained a serious look. "But the Everfeee Forest is not to be taken lightly still." This caused everybody to stare at him. "It's full of dangerous magical beasts and plants. Not many creatures come in here and then come out."

Before he could say any more, the cliff they were standing on collapsed, causing all but the pegasi to fall screaming. Rainbow Dash chased after them in a blur, Fluttershy following, muttering "Oh my goodness, oh my goodness." Rainblow Dash caught Pinkie Pie, while Fluttershy caught Rarity by her tail. Rayman, unnerved, began to spin his hair like a propeller, then began to fly like a helicopter. He grabbed Sans and Frisk before they could fall. Jacob pulled out atwo collapsible pickaxes from his pockets and dug them into the side of the cliff, and began climbing, while Applejack caught herself on a root sticking out of the cliff. Twilight continued to tumble towards the edge, screaming. Applejack let go, grabbing onto her hooves "Hold on! I'm a-comin'!" Twilight gasped at the gorge below her, and started slipping. "Applejack! What do I do?" she asked in terror. The answer she got was unexpected: "Let go."

"Are you crazy?" Twilight asked her, but Applejack promised in a soothing voice, "No I ain't. I promise you'll be safe." Twilight shook her head. "That's not true!" Applejack looked her in the eyes." Now listen here. What I'm sayin' to you is the honest truth. Let go, and you'll be safe." Against her better judgement, Twilight finally relented. For some reason, she trusted her. She let go.

Twilight screamed as she fell, but only for a moment, as she was caught, mid-fall by Fluttershy and Rayman. But Fluttershy's grip loosened a bit and she almost let go. Rayman raised his eyebrow at her. "Really, Flutters? I know you're stronger than that." Fluttershy blushed in embarrassment. "Sorry. I'm not used to holding anything more than a bunny or two." Rayman sighed. "We need to work on that." As they flew Twilight up towards the others, none of them noticed the blue mist zip off towards a figure along the path. A very large figure that roared as soon as the mist made contact.

"And once Pinkie and Rarity were saved, whoosh... Me and Fluttershy loop-de-loop around and WHAM! Caught you right in the nick of time." Rainbow Dash said swooping above the group. Twilihgt Sighed. "Yes, Rainbow, I was there, and I'm very grateful, but we gotta-" She was interrupted by a large figure dropping down in front of the group. It was a large lion, but it had bat-like wings and a scorpion's tail. And it did not look happy. "A manticore!" Twilight gasped as the manticore roared at the group.

Rayman scowled. "Looks like we've gotta get past him. Jacob, did you pack your sleep ray?" Jacob looked in the pockets of his vest ."Uh, I've got laser rays, freeze rays, nuke grenades, shrink rays and flash-bangs. Oooh! A plasma cannon!" Rayman facepalmed. "Never mind. Those things are overkill. Looks like we have to do this the old-fashioned way: fisticuffs!" The rest of the group readied themselves, all except Fluttershy who had a worried look on her face.

Suddenly, the Manticore pounced at Rarity, and swiped at her with his claws. Rarity ducked out of the way, and gave a good buck with her hind legs, nailing the beast in the jaw. "Take that, you ruffian!" she yelled, then the Manticore roared right in her face, messing up her mane from the force of his roar. "MY HAIR!" she cried, then noticed the manticore growling at her. She yelped and ran the other way. As the manticore chased her, Fluttershy said "Wait." But nobody heard her over the scuffle.

The Manticore stopped short as Applejack jumped onto his back and held on tight. IT jumped around like a bucking bronco, trying to dislodge her. "YEE-HAW! Git along, little dogie!" she whooped as it tried to shake her off. Again, Fluttershy said "Wait." a little louder this time, but still too quiet to be heard. The manticore finally managed to throw her off, and as she sailed past Rainbow Dash, Applejack said "All yours, partner." Rainbow Dash nodded. "On it!" she said as she zoomed around the Manticore in a rainbow tornado, as Fluttershy again said "wait." a little louder this time, but still too quiet to be heard.

The Manticore swept its tail past the tornado, knocking Rainbow Dash off course and into Rayman. "OOF!" the both cried. As they began to sail right towards Sans. "LOOK OUT!" Twilight cried to him but Sans didn't budge. Instead, he merely waved his hand. Suddenly, a multitude of large bones popped out of the ground in front of Sans, forming a wall. Rainbow and Rayman crashed into this bone wall, groaning in pain. Everyone else was stunned at what happened, no more so than Twilight. Sans then picked up Rayman and Rainbow Dash and checked them. He saw they had bruises. He waved his hand over their bruises and a wave of blue energy came out of his palms, and their bruises disappeared. Rayman stood up. "Thanks, buddy." Rainbow got up groggily. Sans took a look at the manticore and his expression changed. He was still grinning ear to ear, but it looked more sinister and his eye sockets changed. They his left eye socket was pitch black, while his right socket now had a glowing blue eye surrounded by blue mist flashing in it. "Time for a catfight." he joked. The manticore growled in response. Before anything else could happen, Fluttershy screamed "WAIT!" finally getting everyone's attention.

Fliuttershy gently approached the Manticore, which roared at her, but she stood her ground and nuzzled the beast, which backed down." Shhh... It's okay." she cooed softly. Whimpering, the beast turned over its paw, which was revealed to have a large thorn it it the size of a baseball. "Oh, you poor, poor little baby." Fluttershy said, taking pity on the creature. Rainbow Dash cringed. "Little?" Rayman sat up. "So that's why it was lashing out at us!" Rayman said, understanding. "It's in pain!" IT all made perfect sense now. Sans joked. "Well, it maked perfect sense. Most animals lash out when they're in pain, I'm not kitten around." Everyone groaned at his pun, except Pinkie and Frisk, who giggled.

Fluttershy grabbed the thorn and warned the creature: "Now, this might hurt for just a second." She pulled out the thorn quickly. The manticore roared in her face for a second from the pain, but then started licking her and cuddling her, purring. Fluttershy giggled. "Aw you're just a little ol' baby kitty, aren't you? Yes you are, yes you are." she cooed. The rest of the group smiled and walked past the manticore. Frisk smiled and looked back to Fluttershy with an approving look. Twilight approached Fluttershy, whose mane was now a mess from being licked. "How did you know about the thorn?" she asked. Fluttershy answered, "I didn't. Sometimes we all just need to be shown a little kindness." Twilight smiled as the group pressed on. Little did they know that the thorn left behind transformed into blue mist, which then sped off. As it went, a tall lanky figure stood in the shadows, having witnessed this. Its purple eyes narrowed behind its silver spectacles as it disappeared in a flash of purple particles.

As the group trudged through the forest, it seemed to get thicker. Rarity groaned. "No. My eyes need a rest from all this icky muck." As she said this, the trees goth thicker and blocked out the moonlight, obscuring them in darkness. "Well, I didn't mean that literally." The group never saw the blue mist pass by them and enter the trees. Twilight groaned. "That ancient ruin could be right in front of our faces and we wouldn't even know it." Everyone started bumping into each other in the dark, apologizing to them when they did.

Applejack then stepped in mud. "Oh wait. I think I stepped in somethin'." she said. Fluttershy then screamed. "Applejack rolled her eyes. "It's just mud." But then stopped short as the tree in front of her growled with a scary face. Suddenly, the trees surrounded them, each one adorned with a scary growling face. Everyone screamed in terror. Except Rayman and Pinkie. Rayman raised up his fists. "Stay back, everyone! I'll fight them off!" Twilight glared at him. "Are you crazy! Don't do it! Wait, arent; you scared?" Rayman turned to her. "Of course, I am! Terrified! But I still gotta protect my friends! You can't be brave if you don't face your fears! That's what true courage is!"

He began to swing at the trees but stopped and noticed Pinkie. She wasn't scared at all. In fact, she was making silly faces at the trees and laughing. Rayman stared what are you doing?!" Pinkie Giggled. "Oh don't you see?" and then she began to sing.

In the end, everyone was laughing together. Sans wiped a tear from his eye socket. "Hoo boy! That was fun! And easy. But we'd best make like a tree and leave." For once everyone laughed at his joke, then continued to move on. They didn't know they were being watched by a tall figure with purple eyes. A figure that seemed to be smiling gently.

Everyone was still laughing as they went along their way, until they stopped short. A river was blocking their path. But it was raging and swirling in a violent manner. Frisk put her hands on her hips. "And just how are we gonna cross that?" Jacob looked at the water, pulling out a device from his vest. The device beeped. "Everyone, this river is supposed to be still. Something big is churning the waters." Twilight was impressed. "You seem to have a gadget for everything, Jacob." she said. Jacob blushed in return. "I have to be as reliable as possible for people in need." As he said this, they could hear loud sobbing.

They turned to the other end of the river, then gasped at the sight. A large seas serpent with orange hair and half a mustache was in the water, sobbing and flailing. His spasms from his tantrum were churning up the water dangerously. Sans gasped at the sight of him. "Hey, I know that guy! I met him at a fashion show Mettaton dragged me and my bro Papyrus to! His name was...uhh..oh yeah! Steven Magnet! Nice enough guy. But kinda dramatic. Looks to me light he's throwing ahissy fit." The group rolled their eyes at his pun, then approached the large serpent.

Sans waved at him. "Yo, Magnet! What's wrong buddy?" Steven Magnet saw him and pointed to the missing end of his mustache. "Well, I don't know. I was just sitting here, minding my own business, when this tacky little cloud of purple smoke just whisked past me and tore half of my beloved mustache clean off, and now I look simply horrid! " He wailed. This caused most of the group to facepalm, except for Rarity, Sans, Frisk and Rayman, who had sympathetic looks.

Rainbow Dash groaned. "Oh, give me a break." Applejack nodded. "That's what all the fuss is about?" Rayman then nudged her hard. "Don't be so insensitive, guys!" he barked. Frisk nodded."Yeah! He seems to care an awful lot about his appearance!" Sans just nodded in agreement. Rarity spoke up. "Of course, he's upset! Oh, just look at him. Such lovely luminescent scales.." she pointed out. Steven started to smile at her." And your expertly coiffed mane." Steven smiled. "Oh, I know, I know. "Your fabulous manicure." Rarity continued. "All ruined without your beautiful mustache." Steven whimpered. "It's true, I'm hideous!" Rarity gained a stoic face. "I simply cannot let such a crime against fabulosity go uncorrected." she said, then ripped off one of his scales.

Steven yelped. "What did you do that for?" Rarity took the scale in her mouth, then used its sharp end to slice off the end of her tail., leaving it short. She then used her magic to tie her tail to the stump on Steven's face. "Oh-hohohoho! My mustache. How wonderful!" he cried out in joy. Rarity smiled. "You look smashing." she complimented. Twilight frowned at the sight of Rarity's tail being so short. "Oh, Rarity, your beautiful tail..." Rarity waved it off. "Oh. It's fine, my dear. Short tails are in this season. Besides, it'll grow back." Rainbow Dash mumbled to Jacob "So would the mustache." Jacob simply flicked her in the nose in response.

Twilight then noticed the river was still now that Steven Magnet had calmed down. "Look! We can cross now!" She began to trudge across, when Steven moved his body to create stepping pads for them to cross. "Allow me!" He said, and the group hopped across his back to the other side.

The group trekked through more of the forest, until they saw a castle that looked light it was falling apart across a foggy gorge. Twilight marveled. "There it is, the ruin that holds The Elements of Harmony. We made it!" she then sped off towards the castle. Everyone else ran after her. "Twilight, wait up!" Frisk called out." Twilight was overjoyed. So overjoyed she almost fell into the gorge between her and the castle. Then Rainbow Dash pulled her back. "What's with you and falling off cliffs today?" she quipped.

The group looked at the bridge. A rope bridge once connected the castle and the end of the gorge. But one end was broken and hanging off. Pinkie sighed. "Now what?" Sans smiled and put his bony hand on her back. "Hey, cheer up. Don't lose faith. There's always hope if you look for it. " he said. He motioned to Rainbow Dash. "Hey, Dash. Fly over to the other side and reconnect the bridge. Think you can do that?" Rainbow Dash smiled confidently. "Duh." '

She sped off to the other side. Just as she landed, a thick fog appeared and she heard a voice. "Rainbow..." the voice said. Rainbow Dash tensed up. "Who's there?" she asked, turning around. The voice called again. "Rainbow..." Rainbow Dash stood her ground. "I ain't scared of you! Show yourself!" she demanded. The voice called out. "We've been eagerly awaiting the arrival of the best flyer in Equestria." Rainbow Dash asked "Who?" And the voice replied. "Why, you of course."

Rainbow Dash felt a little flustered now, but kept her cool. "Really?! I mean... Oh yeah, me. Hey, uh, you wouldn't mind telling the Wonderbolts that, would ya? 'Cause I've been trying to get into that group for like, ever." The voice replied. "No, Rainbow Dash. We want you to join us," A trio of pegasi appeared dramatically out of the mist. They were dressed in a similar fashion to the Wonderbolts, but with a darker, purple color scheme. "The Shadowbolts." Their leader replied. "We're the greatest aerial team in the Everfree Forest, and soon we will be the greatest in all Equestria, but first, we need a captain. The most magnificent, swiftest, bravest flier in all the land."

Rainbow Dash chuckled. "Yes it's all true." she said confidently. The Shadowbolts leader clarified. "We need...you. " Rainbow Dash did a loop in the air. "WOOHOO! Sign me up. Just let me tie this bridge real quick and then we have a deal." But the Shadowbolts blocked her path. "No! It's them or us."

On the other side of the bridge, the others were getting impatient. Jacob called out. "Yo, Rainbow! What's taking so long?" Rayman sniffed the air. "I smell an evil presense on the other side with Rainbow!" Twilight gasped and called out to Rainbow Dash, but the fog rolled in and drowned out her words. The Shadowbolts leader waited for Rainbow's Answer. "Well?" Rainbow contemplated, then "Thank you! For the offer, I mean, but I'm afraid I have to say no." She zipped back to the other side and pulled the bridge back up. As she left, the Shadowbolts disappeared and transformed into blue mist, which then sped off. When Rainbow got hto the other side, her friends were cheering. "See? I'd never leave my friends hangin'." The group cheered.

Suddenly they heard a loud, ear-shattering screech. The group looked up in horror at a creature standing outside the castle entrance. It was tall and skinny, almost skeletal, skin taught over its bones. It was tall, easily 10 feet, with long skinny legs and arms ending in clawed hands. Its pitch-black body was the same color as it's sharp teeth, in a mouth stretched open large enough to eat a large pumpkin. It had hair as black as it's body, and piercing purple eyes behind silver spectacles. It wore no clothes except for a blood-red scarf over it's neck. IT was an enderman. The group gasped in horror. The creature stopped screeching and approached the group. It spoke in a smooth, deep voice. "Welcome heroes. I thought you would never come to help me."

Rainbow Dash entered a battle stance. "Who are you, tall dark and creepy?" The creature smiled warmly, or at least tried to since its large mouth had sharp teeth. "Do not be alarmed. I am an ally. My name is Endie. Prince Endie of the Endermen." Rayman approached him. "Hello, old friend. Long time no see.". Endie chuckled and scooped Rayman up into a hug."Oh, Rayman, it's been centuries!" This caused the rest of the group to ease up.

Endie put Rayman down. "I have been waiting for centuries for Nightmare Moon's return, so that I may lead new heroes to stop her with the Elements of Harmony. Twilight Nodded. "Yes! I have come to stop Nightmare Moon!" Endie turned somber. "I fear she is growing too powerful. She must be stopped soon, or the night will last forever." Rayman looked at his friend with weary eyes. "Endie, don't you want to save her?" Endie sighed. "That is a hopeless gesture. She's already too far gone to save. This is the only way."

Sans frowned. "Horsefeathers!" he said, causing everyone to gasp. "You can't just say there is no other way! There is always hope for a better turnout." Frisk nodded. "The best battle won is one that is not fought." Endie shook his head. "I once thought I could save her. That I could cling onto the hope that she might still care. But look around you. If she really cared, a thousand years on the moon would have changed her mind." Sans put a hand on the enderman's side, then looked directly into his eyes. "Never lose faith or hope, buddy." Frisk nodded. "With enough determination, anything is possible." Endie smiled warmly. "I really hope so. Go, into the castle. Use the Elements, heroes." The group then walked into the castle. Endue smiled to himself. "Maybe they can save her. One can only hope."

The group entered the castle's first room, and saw a pillar with nine stone orbs with dull jewels on them. They marveled at them. "Come on, Twilight. Isn't this what you've been waitin' for?" Applejack Asked as Twilight saw them. "The Elements of Harmony, we've found them." she said, glee on her face! At last, they could defeat Nightmare Moon and save her mentor.

Rayman, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy flew up and grabbed the Elements, gently setting them on the ground near Twilight. Pinkie counted. "Hey! There's only nine!" This confused the others. "Where's the sixth?" rainbow Dash wondered. All eyes turned to Rayman, who held up his hands. "Don't look at me!" he said.

Twilight explained "The book said: when the five are present, a spark will cause the tenth Element to be revealed." Frisk tilted her head. "What is that supposed to mean?" she asked. Twilight pondered. "I'm not sure, but I have an idea. Stand back. I don't know what will happen." she said. She crouched down and concentrated as her horn began to glow with magic. Rayman began to lead the others to a safe distance. "Come on, guys. She needs to concentrate."

As the group took their leave, the blue mist arose, then began to spin the Elements around. Twilight cried out in shock, which was heard by her friends. "TWILIGHT!" they all cried out, and began to run back to her. Twilight looked up into the swirling blue mass and cried, "The Elements!" She dove into the mist just as it disappeared. He friends showed up just as this happened. They started to panic, calling out for her, until Jacob saw a bright light coming from one of the broken towers. "Look!" he cried out, pointing to the tower. It was settled then and there: they had to rescue their friend. Rayman took charge. "Come one, everybody!" and he led the charge towards the tower.

Meanwhile, inside the tower, Twilight appeared, coughing. As the smoke cleared, she gasped as she saw that at the other end of the chamber was Nightmare Moon, chuckling wickedly as she floated the Elements around her. She made lightning appear to intimidate Twilight, but she put on her fierce face. Her mentor Celestia was at stake. She pawed the ground with her hooves, ready to charge. Nightmare Moon gave a dry look. "You're kidding. You're kidding, right?" she asked. She figured nobody would dare to even try attacking someone as powerful as her directly. But Twilight was seriously going to charge. Her horn lit up as she charged, Nightmare Moon breaking into a charge as well.

But just as they were about to collide, Twilight teleported to the elements, shocking Nigtmare Moon. Twilight focused her horn on the Elements as Nightmare Moon flew towards her. "Just one spark. Come on, come on." Just as Nightmare Moon reached the area, Twilight was blown back by a blast of electricity as the Elements started to glow. Nightmare Moon stood tnese. "No, no!" she said. But just as the glowing started, it stopped. Twilight was confused. "But... where's the tenth Element?!" She asked. Nightmare moon took the opprotunity to stomp hard with her front hooves, shattering the Elements into shards. She laughed mockingly at Twilight's shocked face. "You little foal! Thinking you could defeat me? Now you will never see your princess, or your sun! The night will last forever!" She began to Cackle evilly, lightning and mist surrounding her.

But just then, Twilight could hear voiced down the hall leading to the tower. The voices of her friends echoed, getting closer. She could hear them saying: "Don't worry Twilight, we're here." And in that moment, she knew she wasn't alone...and that she had already won against Nightmare Moon.

As her friends stood by her side, Twilight turned to Nightmare Moon. "You think you can destroy The Elements of Harmony just like that? Well, you're wrong, because the spirits of The Elements of Harmony are right here!" Then the Elment's shards began to float, and swirled around each of her friends. Nightmare moon could only utter. "What?"

Twilight Turned to each of her friends. "Applejack, who reassured me when I was in doubt, represents the spirit of... Honesty! Fluttershy, who tamed the manticore with her compassion, represents the spirit of... Kindness! Rayman, who carried on fighting even though he was terrified, represents the spirit of...Courage! Pinkie Pie, who banished fear by giggling in the face of danger, represents the spirit of... laughter! Rarity, who calmed a sorrowful serpent with a meaningful gift represents the spirit of... Generosity! Jacob, whose tools he would only use for the benefit of others, represents the spirit of...Reliability! Rainbow Dash, who could not abandon her friends for her own heart's desire represents the spirit of... Loyalty! Sans, who assured a downtrodden enderman prince that there is always another way, represents the spirit of...Hope! And Frisk, whose will to persevere and find a solution no matter what, represents the spirit of... Determination! The spirits of these nine got us through every challenge you threw at us."

Nigthmare Moon looked around. "You still don't have the tenth Element! The spark didn't work!" Twilight shook her head. "But it did! A different kind of spark.." She turned to her friends." I felt it the very moment I realized how happy I was to hear you, to see you, how much I cared about you. The spark ignited inside me when I realized that you all... are my friends!" As she said this, the Tenth Element appeared in front of Twilight. Nightmare Moon looked utterly terrified now. Twilight Continued." You see, Nightmare Moon, when those Elements are ignited by the... the spark, that resides in the heart of us all, it creates the tenth element: the element of... Magic!" The Elements shined and attached themselves to the Ten heroes, which then burst a rainbow of pure magic at Nightmare Moon. "Nooo! Nooo!" she screamed as the rainbow engulfed her.

When it was all over, everyone came to. Rainbow Groaned. "Ohhh, my head." Rayman stood up and groaned. "Uh...I feel like someone played hockey with my brain." Applejack stood up. "Everypony okay?" she asked. " Oh, thank goodness." Rarity said as she saw her tail had magically grown back. "Why Rarity, it's so lovely." Fluttershy said. Rarity cuddled her tail. "I now! I'll never part with it again." "No. Your necklace. It looks just like your cutie mark." Fluttershy clarified.

Rarity noticed her Element had turned into a necklace, a purple gem in the shape of her cutie mark. Then she noticed Fluttershy was wearing her Element in a necklace with a pink jewel that looked like her cutie mark. "Ooh. So does yours." Fluttershy noticed this right away and gasped. Pinkie Pie bounced up and down. "Look at mine! Look at mine!" she chanted. Her necklace was a sky blue crystal that looked like her cutie mark. Rainbow Dash looked at her own Element Necklace. A red jewel that looked like her cutie mark. "Aw yeah." she cheered.

Sans looked at his necklace, which was a deep blue gem shaped like an upside-down heart. "I always knew I was a real Gem." he quipped. Earning a giggle from Frisk, who was wearing a necklace with a red gem in the shape of a heart. Rayman stood proudly in front of them. "Check me out! Awesome, right?" His Element was around his torso on a belt, the gem acting as the buckle, a white gem in the shape of a fist. Jacob put his hand on his head and ruffled his hair. "Pretty cool dude. Just as cool as mine. " he said, pointing to the silver gem on his necklace, which looked like a laser gun.

Applejack saw her necklace was a orange gem that looked like her cutie mark, then turned to Twilight whose Gem looked like her cutie mark, but was on a crown on her head. "Gee, Twilight! I thought you were just spoutin' a lot of hooey, but I reckon we really do represent the elements of friendship."

"indeed you do." Said a voice. Suddenly, the sun rose, and a glowing ball of light appeared, which then turned intoa pony. An alicorn with a white coat, purple eyes and flowing hair that was a mix of blue, green, tela and pink. She wore golden necklace, hoove-ccents and a tiara and had a cutie mark of the sun. This was Princess Celestia, ruler of Equestria. Everyone bowed in respect. Twilight gasped at the welcome sight of her mentor. "Princess Celsetia!" she called out, and embraced her. Celestia returned the embrace.

"Twilight Sparkle, my faithful student. I knew you could do it." Twilight was confused now. She had thought Celestia did not believe her about Nightmare Moon. "But... you told me it was all an old pony tale." Celestia shook her head." I told you that you needed to make some friends, nothing more. I saw the signs of Nightmare Moon's return, and I knew it was you who had the magic inside to defeat her, but you could not unleash it until you let true friendship into your heart. Now if only another will as well." She turned to the corner, where a pony lay. An alicorn with a blue coat, blue stardust for hair waving the same way as Celestia's. She was slightly smaller, but just as majestic and beautiful. She had a cutie mark of the moon. She was unconsious. "Princess Luna!" Rayman called out. And she woke up with a gasp. Rayman approached her and gave her a sniff as she cowered in fear. "The darkness has completely left you." he said. Celestia approached her alongside Rayman. "Rayman continued. "It has been a thousand years since we have seen you like this. "

As the Alicorn cowered, Celestia kneeled beside her. "Time to put our differences behind us. We were meant to rule together, little sister. Will you accept my friendship?" The smaller alicorn, began to cry and embraced her. "I'm so sorry! I missed you so much, big sister!" "I've missed you, too." Celestia said, tears running down her own eyes. "And I know somebody else who missed you far more than I."

From the shadows of a corner, Endie stepped out. Tears running down his eyes."Lulu?" he asked in a breaking voice. Luna stood up and looked at the lanky creature with tear-stained eyes. "Endie..." she sobbed. "i..I'm so sorry! You must hate me for turning agaisnt you..." she coulldn't even look him in the eye. Endie slowly walked towards her and tokk her face in his hands, stroking her hair. "You're just as beautiful as the day I lost you." he uttered. Luna sobbed. "Endie..." Endie shivered. "I forgive you. You and Nightmare Moon are not the same. I love you." And the two kissed, tears flooding from their eyes. Pinkie began sobbing at the tender moment. The she immediately brightened up. "Hey, you know what this calls for?"

"A party!" she sad. Back at Ponyville, a party was in full swing at the return of both princesses and the Prince. Ponies and other creatures from all over Ponyville gathered and cheered as the carriage carrying the Princesses and PRince arrived. Spike, who had woken up, came from the crowd to embrace Twilight, who welcomed the affection of her number one assistant whom was like a little brother to her. The Ponyville troopers saluted the return of their creator Jacob, who decided to give them and Sherriff Marshall all the day off. The ponies bowed to the princesses and prince, even Luna, who was given a reassuring glance from Endie. Bart the Enderman came throught the crowd with Grillby and hugged Endie, whom revealed that they were brothers, much to the shock of many of the group.

As the others celebrated, Twilight began to feel sad. Celestia took notice of this. "Why so glum, my faithful student?" she asked. " Are you not happy that your quest is complete and you can return to your studies in Canterlot?" Twilight bowed her head sadly. "That's just it. Just when I learned how wonderful it is to have friends, I have to leave them." she turned to her friends, who looked just as sad at the news. Rayman was even starting to cry. He had finally been reunited with one of the only friends he had in Canterlot, and now he might never see her again. He was given a pat on the back by the hand of a large fairy-like woman with red long red hair, silver eyes, freckles, and a curvy figure, wearing green stockings, hat, bra top and skirt. This was his wife and creator Betilla the Nymph. He hugged her, wanting reassurance, though it was hard when he had hands but no arms. This only broke everyone's hearts further.

Celestia smiled. "Spike, take a note please." she said. Spike immediately took out a scroll and quill and started writing as Celesta continued. "I, Princess Celestia, hereby decree that the unicorn Twilight Sparkle shall take on a new mission for Equestria. She must continue to study the magic of friendship. She must report to me her findings from her new home in Ponyville.." This news caused everyone to cheer as Twilight and her friends gathered in a group hug, Betilla and Spike joining in. "Oh thank you, Princess Celestia! I'll study harder than ever before." Twilight said. The entire town began to cheer as Pinkie rambled on: "Isn't this exciting? Are you excited cause I'm excited I've never been so excited, well, except for the time that I went [deep gasp] but I mean really-" It was clear this was only the beginning for these heroes.
