Out of interest, Twilight and Megan started to share what it was like becoming heroes for the first time.

"It would be nice to know why and how you became Ponyland's savior in the first place." thought Twilight.

"Isn't that what the book about me is for?" asked Megan

Twilight then said, "The thing is that the book wasn't written by you, it was written by someone who kept records about you.  I would like to know what it was like from you directly."

Megan answered, "So you want to hear this from the horse's mouth?"

Spike feeling a bit puzzled then asked, "I don't know why a pony would have to say it for you?"

Megan answered back with, "Spike, that term has nothing to do with any ponies or even horses in that matter.  It just means that it was said from someone directly."

Now with a better understanding, Spike said, "I'm just not used to expressions said by humans and by what they mean."

"First of all, I won't blame you for that Spike.  However, it would be nice to hear from you, Twilight, on what it was like for you to become a hero for the first time especially since I have hardly known much about you ever since I came back here."

"That's fair enough." said Twilight

Megan started to tell her story by saying, "It started out one night while I was brushing my pony TJ and looking out to the night sky to think I saw a shooting star only to find out that it was Firefly who fell into the nearby well after landing onto a weathervane and having it spin her around a few times before actually falling in."

Twilight then said, "Hearing that almost made me think of Rainbow Dash."

Megan then answered back with, "Keep in mind that she is her ancestor.  However, it would have been nice if Firefly did explain herself to me when she came, because she was pretty hasty to go back with me the moment, I got her out her out of the well.  Then again, she was pretty optimistic about having me help her and the other ponies free the ones who were taken to Midnight Castle that she even sang a song to help me feel less scared known as "Dancing on Air" as if she believed that I was that one.  For some reason, I still felt that she really had nobody in mind and just took whoever she saw at first sight, which happened to be me."

Twilight then asked, "Would you have gone if Firefly did explain why she came to you?"

Megan then answered, "If she did, at least I would know what I would be facing, but that wasn't the case here, though I still think that she wouldn't have given me a choice even she did state her purpose."

After hearing that Twilight then said, "Although I do feel sorry that you had to be dragged into a battle that you didn't originally know about, it still paid off in the end."

As Megan continued her story, she said, "Not too long after Firefly introduced me to her friends, to some of which were you ancestors, I was immediately grabbed by a dragon known as a Stratadon.  When I was freed up thanks to Firefly, I almost fell to my death until Scorpan caught me and put me down safely only to tell me to stay out of this fight.  After that, your ancestors had me come to rescue them.  However, not all of them went, because Glory, who was Rarity's ancestor, was one of the few ponies who stayed behind back over at Dream Castle.  As we proceeded, we were crossing a bridge only to have Applejack, who was Applejack's ancestor, fall down having me rescue her and ending up in a giant clam with the Sea Ponies introducing themselves and helping us get out, but I still can't get how many times they kept on touching the bubble we were both in without breaking it, plus they even separated it and put it back together with it still remaining intact.  Getting back up, we rejoined those ponies as Twilight, your ancestor, took us to see the Moochick to acquire the Rainbow of Light to help stop Tirac, though he wasn't too keen on it actually working nor did I figure out why he gave the locket to me and not one of the ponies."

Twilight then thought, "Perhaps it was something that he saw that only you could do that a pony couldn't in trying to stop Tirac."

Megan then asked, "Like what?"

"It could have been that he was probably expecting someone like you to show up and use the locket." answered Twilight.

Megan then continued her story and said, "Nevertheless, we made it to Midnight Castle, but the castle looked as if it had no way of getting into without falling into the moat, so I used the seashell the Sea Ponies gave to me earlier, and they told us about a special entrance that could be accessed by having Firefly hit one of the heads of the gargoyles to get in.  Unfortunately, we got lost in the castle and Applejack for some reason got captured by one of the guards only to be turned into a dragon along with some of the other captured ponies.  At first, I couldn't understand why Scorpan grabbed me, but then I started to realize that maybe he wasn't a bad guy after all as he even freed Ember and Spike, who was used as insurance to make sure he was doing Tirac's bidding."

Spike interrupted Megan's story and asked, "Why was my ancestor considered insurance to make Scorpan serve Tirac?"

Megan answered, "It was because if Scorpan refused or failed to get any four adult ponies to use for his chariot, your ancestor would have been killed right on the spot by Tirac with him witnessing it and he didn't want that to happen."

Spike then realized, "I can see why Scorpan wasn't given much of a choice."

Megan then went on to continuing her story and mentioned, "At first we did manage to get the bag containing the Rainbow of Darkness from Tirac, but he did manage to get it back after on the Stratadons stopped Firefly from leaving.  Scorpan did try to fight back, but he managed to get hit hard, though he was lucky enough to have a haystack break his fall otherwise he would have really been hurt.  It was then time for me to finally use the Rainbow of Light to fight back only to find it that it was very small, but for some reason absorbed his rainbow and became bigger, which allowed for him to be killed.  As a result, everything he changed with that said rainbow changed back including Scorpan, who was originally a prince.  However, Spike only stayed the same due to the fact that he was always a baby dragon, and even decided to stay with the ponies rather than go back with Scorpan.  After that was all over, I said good-bye to all of the ponies and went back home to see TJ again, but for some reason I never saw any of those ponies ever again, and when I came back to Ponyland, and I was with completely different ponies that I never saw before."

After feeling touched by her story, Twilight noted, "Although I won't argue with the fact that Firefly dragged you in without even stating why she came, it still seemed that everything went well in the end.  What I don't understand is why you never saw any of those ponies ever again.  Also, when did you meet of the ancestors of Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy, because you didn't seem to mention them being there?"

"First of all, I could never understand why I never saw any of those ponies again including Firefly.  When I came back, I was brought by a new Pegasus known as Sky Dancer, though that was where I met Posey, who was Fluttershy's ancestor for the first time Also, I encountered the Bushwoolies for the first time, who were originally slaves to Catrina, plus this was where I learned that the Rainbow of Light could be used for other things such as controlling the weather.  As for Surprise, who was Pinkie Pie's ancestor, I first met her when trying to stop the witches from trying to destroy Flutter Valley in response for thwarting them for when they used the Smooze to cover all of Ponyland." replied Megan.

Twilight then said, "At least now I know how you met our ancestors as well as became the savior of Ponyland."
