The group are inside Sugar Cube Corner; tending to their wounds, and comforting Cozy Glow since she’s getting a bruise as to where the guard has hit her with the handle side of their spear.

And as to what the Cakes think of it… . They’re too busy either calming down the Twins; or trying their best to not break down as well because they thought that the villains are here to do something bad.

Luna eventually assures them that they’re not here to do something bad, and that she will personally keep a close eye on them for just in case… .

With their worries all solved; the Cakes got the Twins to calm down, and led them upstairs so they could sleep for the night. 

Unfortunately; what anyone here doesn’t know is that the villains; (and Princess Luna); are gonna be in for a world of hurt. Only time will tell… .



“There you are kid… . All better?” King Sombra said as he’s done bandaging up Cozy Glow’s bruise with an ice pack attached to it. Cozy Glow then nodded her head, and leaned in while holding out her hooves for a hug. King Sombra then accepted the hug, and then went to set Cozy Glow down on the Twin’s play area; so that way she can calm down some more, and then feel better by playing with some toys; (with the Cakes, and the Twin’s approval of course).

Meanwhile; Tirek is being treated for his wounds by Queen Chrysalis in the kitchen. Why the kitchen? It’s so that way Cozy Glow won’t see anything too “graphic”; in a sense… .

“So… ;” Tirek began… ; “I see that you’ve done this before huh? Patching up ponies that are hurt and all that?” Chrysalis responded by aggressively pulling out a glass shard that was lodged in one of Tirek’s arms from a glass cup that shattered during the bar fight, and then quickly bandaged up the area before saying; “changelings technically… but yeah.”

And as for Princess Luna; she’s just sipping from a orange juice glass since she’s thirsty.



Hours have passed, and it seemed that the gang was gonna go leave so the Cakes could have their home back. Unfortunately; right as they were about to leave; Reginald, and a big looking guard with juggernaut like knight’s armor; bursted through the door, and then blocked the way out.

Giving out a heavy sigh; not in the mood for another fight; King Sombra approached them, and then says; “can we not do this… ? It’s late… .”

Not caring as to what a villain has to say; Reginald moves him aside, and headed straight for Princess Luna; whom as you might’ve already guessed; is not in a very good mood since she thought that they had escaped his sight. Unfortunately; that’s just not the case, and Luna just knows that this fight will not only be personal… but painful as well… . She’s just hoping that her newfound pals could help her… ; if they don’t get clobbered by the juggernaut first that is… .

“So…” Reginald began. “How’re you doing; Princess of the Night?”

Luna responded with a scoff; “just fine; really… . Until you showed up.”

Reginald smirked, got close to Luna, and then says; “look now; how about we just get you back to the castle, have the villains and Shining Armor arrested, and we’ll just pretend that none of this ever happened. Okay? What do you say… ?”

Luna thought for a minute; before responding; “I’d rather get chained in a dungeon than to ever go with you and bruiser… .”

Bruiser; (the guard in the juggernaut suit); stepped up to the Princess, and then said in a deep voice that’s slightly hindered due to the heavy armor that he’s wearing; “now now your highness… . No need for resorting to brute force now; would we?”

King Sombra stepped in front of Luna; (defending her), with horn glowing with shadow magic, and then says; “oh… I think that’s lovely… ;” while cracking his shadow knuckles by clenching them. “Now… ; I will give you guys two choices… . You either A; leave and not bother us again. Or B; me and my allies; (Luna included); will kick your sorry butts for harming Cozy Glow; (since she’s just a little filly), and also for hurting Shining Armor when he’s clearly just trying to make ends meet. I mean; after all… ; he can’t support being royalty without paying his own taxes; am I right… ?”

Having enough of his time wasted; Reginald unsheathed his sword, and demanded; “now you listen here! Either you let us arrest Shining Armor, and you villains. Or; I can get Celestia in here, and then we’ll all be in trouble. Is that understood?”

Sombra nodded, and then said; “you do make a good point there… .” He then got behind Reginald, and then said; “however; you forgot one minor detail…” before unsheathing his own sword.

“And just what would that be; you cur?!” Reginald responded in spite.

Sombra then replied with; “I’m a lot more quicker than you think; rodent!” After that; Sombra then swiftly roundkicked Reginald square on the side of his face, and then shoved Luna out of the way before being hit with Bruiser’s blunt weapon… ; (which mind you didn’t hurt because his crown cushioned the blow), and then got sent flying due to the impact; right onto the wall by the Cake Twin’s play area.

Seeing this; Chrysalis and Tirek got out some kitchen utensils, and then went to go attack the juggernaut. Bruiser retaliated by swinging his weapon… ; successfully keeping the two villains in check.

Without hesitation; Luna then jumped on top of Bruiser, and then starts hitting him on his helmet; hoping that it’ll disorient him. Unfortunately; it’s ineffective, and Luna was just thrown away from him like it was nothing. Luna wasn’t hurt too bad, but that didn’t stop her from going back to trying to hurt Bruiser once again… .



After a half hour; Bruiser is on the ground, and covered in bruises. And as for Reginald; he’s cornered by the night guard of Princess Luna.

And with that; the fight’s over. The end.
