Back at Tropical Resort, the Mane 6, Sonic, Tails, MC, Maria, Sally, Bunnie, Antoine, Rotor, Sunny and her friends were looking around. All of the Wisps were cheering in excitement. "Sweet! The tractor beams are gone!" Tails said. "The planets are free!" "Was there ever any doubt? I mean, really?" Sonic asked. "Great job, buddy." MC had the Chaos Emeralds they had gotten from the amusement park hovering around him. He then said, "Six down. One to go." "Okay, but there aren't any more places here to hide the last Chaos Emerald," Twilight said. "Where could the Doctor hide it?" "Perhaps he didn't hide it," Sally said. "He must have the last one with him." "Guess that would make sense," Hitch said. "If he'd want something to keep him as powerful as he wants, he'll have to keep one Emerald then come for the rest." "And how would you know that?" Rotor asked. "You'd be surprised what knowledge you've grown up with," Hitch said. "For most of my life, all of the Earth Ponies of Maretime Bay thought that the other pony type is gonna attack us with their magic or flight." "Things were messed up at that time," MC said. "The Earth Ponies were setting up illegal defense weapons, the Pegasi were too afraid to come down from the mountain, and the unicorns were very superstitious." He then looked at Izzy. "Well, except for Izzy." "Superstitious?" Twilight asked. "Why?" "The unicorns of Bridlewood had no magic for so long, they thought that certain words would give you jinxies," Izzy said. "Which words?" Rarity asked. "Magic, feather, wing... oh, and mayonnaise," Izzy said. "What's wrong with mayonnaise?" Applejack asked. All Izzy did was shrug her shoulders in response. "Whenever one of those words were said, the unicorns would do a ridiculous dance to thwart off the potential bad luck that comes," MC said. "It goes something like this." MC and Izzy then got on all fours, and did the dance. They slid their arms back as they were bending forward. Then they snorted like horses and ponies. Then they bopped their heads up and down. And they started dancing around in a circle on one foot each. "O... kay...?" Zipp said, confused about it. Then the wisps came around, dancing in celebration. "I guess we should head home," Bunnie said. "Looks like the aliens are happy to be going home too," Tails said. "Uh, I think we're in the middle of a party." "The middle?" Sonic asked. "We are the party. I think we're their guests of honor." "Totally," Tails said. "Party time!" Pinkie Pie said, pulling her party cannon out of her mane. She then fired it and all the wisps got even more excited. MC just smirked and shook his head. "How did that fit in her mane?" Pipp asked. "It's best if you just go with it," Rainbow Dash said. "Pinkie Pie is one of the most unsolvable mysteries of all time. We just go with it." Then they continued celebrating their current victory. At Eggman's base, Eggman was watching the monitors. The monitors were showing the process of the mind control device. Orbot and Cubot were also in the room. One tower was fully loaded while the other two were two-thirds full. Eggman stood up from his seat. "Hoo ho ho!" Eggman laughed. "Those foolish Freedom Fighters think they've won just because they destroyed all my generators. Well the mind control cannon is full enough for what it has to do. I will have the last laugh!" Cubot applauded at Eggman's speech. "The last laugh?" Orbot asked. "How is laughing last special? Isn't that like being the slowest one to get the joke?" Then Cubot started talking like a gangster. "Yeah, I laugh last all the time. People look at me like I'm an idiot. Fogetaboutit!" Eggman facepalmed himself, then looked at Cubot and said, "That's because you are an idiot!" Cubot was processing what Eggman told him. Then he asked, "You talkin' to me?" "Yes, I'm talking to you!" Eggman shouted. "There's nobody else here besides Orbot, and Agent Stone is about to go down to Earth to let the people into the park, so I must be talking to you! Why haven't we fixed your voice chip yet?!" "Yo, quit bustin' my batteries over here, I been workin' on it all day," Cubot responded. "What does that even mean?!" Eggman asked, angrily. "Oh, never mind." He then pushed a button on the console and a lever connected to a large plug and outlet came out of the floor next to the console. "In a few seconds it won't matter anyway since the world will only have one thing on its mind." "What's that, boss?" Orbot asked. Eggman chuckled and said, "Me." He then plugged in the giant plug into the outlet, which started up the giant mind control ray. Then it showed the bottom of the main park of Eggman's Amusement Park, seeing towers that were the Mind Control Rays. But one of the towers had an arm of the Rotatatron in it. Then the arm cracked and exploded. It then started a chain reaction, making a lot of purple smoke come out of it, then it became a giant sphere of purple energy, and it was expanding. Eggman pounded on the console, shouting, "No! This can't be happening! It's backfiring! Impossible! How?!" He then kicked his hover chair, making it bounce off the wall, making Cubot go into it, and soon enough, the chair stopped moving. Cubot then got out of it. "Ta-da!" Cubot said. He then looked towards Eggman. "Yo, what do you mean impossible? Your plans have been crushed by Sonic and his friends for like, eh, ever. He stops you like it's his job or somethin'. In fact, I can't remember a plan he didn't stop." "What are you talking about?" Eggman asked. "They haven't stopped all of them." "Name one," Cubot said. "Um..." Eggman then thought of every scheme he had tried to win, but he remembered only the battles he lost against Sonic and the other heroes. All the defeats he had in the past adventures with the Freedom Fighters and the ponies. And even one time when was under a sleeping Big the Cat, trying his hardest to push him off. "Way to pay attention, pal," Orbot said, patting Cubot's back, making Cubot to straighten up and then his head turned. "Thank you, buddy," Cubot said, in his normal voice. "Hey! My voice... It's back!! Alright!" "Ah, there's the sweet sound my auditory processors know and love," Orbot said. Eggman facepalmed and said, "Now I remember why we changed his voice chip." He then sat back in his hover chair as it was heading back towards the console. Eggman then pulled out something from a drawer on the console. "Eh, no matter! I have suffered a setback, but this thing's far from over!" Eggman said. "I will crush Sonic and those insignificant little friends of his!" The hover chair then started going up into an escape hatch. "The man gets an A for effort, that's for sure," Cubot said. At the Tropical Resort, the Wisps then started flying away in fear. The Mane 6, the Freedom Fighters and Sunny and her friends looked around at all of the Wisps fleeing for their lives. "What's happening?!" Fluttershy asked. "This can't be good," Zipp said. MC then looked around until something caught his eyes. He then said, "Ah, heck no!" Then the group looked towards where MC was looking and they all gasped. They saw one mind control ray tower was exploding, causing a chain reaction. "We gotta get outta here!" "Quick! To the space elevator!" Twilight shouted. Then they all started running from that area, heading towards the exit of the park. As they were running, they saw that the explosion was getting bigger. "We need to speed up!" Sonic shouted. "We need some wisps!" MC shouted. "Laser, Drill, we're gonna need you!" Then cyan and yellow wisps came in. They all absorbed themselves into the heroes, and they sped up faster, getting a good distance away from the explosion. "Okay, this is getting dangerous," Maria said. "We need to get out of here before it's too late." "Maria's right," Twilight said. "We gotta get out of here!" Eventually, they made it to the exit. The space elevator was right where they needed to be. "Perfect," Sonic said. "Time to bail!" Just then, a giant mech appeared in front of the group, destroying the system that moves the space elevator. "Isn't that...?" Tails asked. "It can't be!" Sonic said. "Leaving so soon?" Eggman asked as the hatch opened up. "There are no lines, and I've saved the best rides for last. At least let me stamp your hand so you can come back in." "I know you're trying to be clever with this whole amusement park pun thing, but it's just coming off lame," Sonic said. "I agree," Twilight said. "You're pushing it too far." "Say you're going to destroy us and stop embarrassing yourself," Sunny said in a snarky tone. "Curse you, heroes!" Eggman shouted. "Not only do you foil my plans, but you foil my speeches as well! I work hard on them! No matter." He then looked up with his arms held up. I will destroy you and I will be victorious!" He then looked back at the group. "Is that better?" "Like, a million times better," Sonic replied. "Thank you." "That entire conversation is going on my social media account," Pipp said. "I had to start all over on social media being me, Sunny, Hitch, Izzy and my big sister Zipp being from the future. Along with my family's dog, and that Silver the Hedgehog guy." "I can understand that," Eggman said. "Coming from the past, that's easy because there are records from the past that can be found. But from the future, that's going to be very difficult. Anyway, this robot here is special! He's powered by the energy from your little friends. He is invincible. So I'd say it's been nice knowing you... but it hasn't." "I have to admit I'm a little scared," Tails said. "I don't think we can beat this guy." Twilight looked towards the elevator. She then said, "All of you, on the space elevator." "But there's not enough room for all of us," Rainbow Dash said. "We barely had room when we first got on it. There's no room for four more." Sonic then looked at all of them. He then used his speed to get the others into the Space Elevator, except for Twilight, Sunny and MC. He then said, "See you on the ground, buddy!" He then closed the door. "Huh?" Tails asked as he was the last one on the elevator as the door was closing. "Sonic! No!" "MC, get them all towards the ground, quickly!" Sonic said. "On it!" MC said. He then got in front of the space elevator. He then forged a rigging system onto the elevator, making him able to pull the elevator with his torso. He then used his strength and speed to pull the elevator towards Earth. "We'll take care of this, MC," Twilight said. "We'll meet you back on Earth." Then Twilight, Sonic and Sunny got into battle. The hatch of the robot closed and Eggman got ready to fight himself. Then the robot started flying backwards towards Earth. Twilight, Sonic and Sunny then started pursuing Eggman to take the fight on foot. Also to get away from the growing sphere of purple energy coming closer and closer to the exit of Eggman's Interstellar Amusement Park. This would be one fight they would never forget. On the ground, the Cutie Mark Crusaders, the Young 6, Silver, Blaze and Truemen arrived at the bottom of where the space elevator comes and goes. "This is the place," Truemen said. "Whoa," Silver said. "This is the entrance to Eggman's Amusement Park. It's so..." He then looked up and saw an elevator coming down fast. "Whoa, incoming!" The rest of the group looked up and saw the elevator. Silver used his power to slow down the space elevator. He made it stop. Just then, MC came down screaming, crashing into the ground. "Ooooooh!" the others said. MC got angry and stood up. He then held his arms straight up to catch the elevator. Silver let go of the Space Elevator and MC caught it. He then set it down gently. "That's it!" MC snapped. "No more missions in space! I'm done with it! Game... over!" He walked over towards the door of the space elevator and ripped it off. "I wouldn't blame you," Hitch said. "After everything you've been through with all those space missions, it must've been exhausting." "Hey, guys," Truemen said. The group looked towards the ones who arrived. "Truemen," MC said. "It's a good thing you're here. We've got some friends for you to meet. You've already met Sally." "Good to see you again, Truemen," Sally said. "Likewise," Trumen said. "The rabbit with the robot arm and legs is Bunnie, and the coyote is her husband, Antoine D'Coolette," MC said. "And the Walrus is Rotor." "So, these guys are some of the original Freedom Fighters, huh?" Truemen asked. "Guess it's time we've got to know each other more." "We might have to do it somewhere safer," Blaze said. She then pointed up. "Look!" The group looked up at what Blaze was pointing at and gasped. The giant purple sphere was expanding. "What's happening?" Fluttershy asked. Tails was scanning the giant sphere with his Miles Electric. "By my calculations, that much energy being let out is starting to evolve into..." Tails then gasped when got the results. "...a Black... Hole!" "A black hole?!" MC asked. "If that thing keeps expanding, it could swallow the entire universe up!" "What are we gonna do?!" Zipp asked. "There's nothing we can do..." Tails said, falling to his knees. "Not even with all the Chaos Emeralds. We're dead." "No..." Silver said. Everyone looked at Silver. "Sonic hasn't given up yet to stop a disaster. He's faced time... space... and reality... just to save our homes a bunch of times." "Twilight did the same thing as well," Rarity said. "She'd do anything for us to protect the friends she loves." "And Sunny..." Hitch said. "Sunny's too stubborn to give up just like that. She hasn't been wrong about Equestria being friends with each other. They can pull it off." The group looked up into the sky towards the growing sphere. Tails then said, "I hope you're all right." Back on the tower to the Interstellar Amusement Park, Twilight, Sonic and Sunny were running down the tower, battling Eggman. Eggman's machine then started charging up for its final attack. "Any last words?!" Eggman called out. Just then, a bunch of non-corrupted wisps came in and surrounded Twilight, Sonic and Sunny. They absorbed themselves into the three heroes, increasing their speed and power. They went through Eggman's machine. Sunny, during the moment, saw that Eggman had the last Chaos Emerald. She grabbed it as the three were passing through the machine. When they fully went through the machine, the machine exploded, sending the Egg Mobile out of it, landing closer to the growing purple sphere. Eggman groaned and said, "Oh, my head. Who turned out the lights?" Then a speaker flew past the Egg Mobile, getting caught in the suction coming from the growing sphere. It was giving off a message. "At Dr. Eggman's Incredible Interstellar Amusement Park you can feel comfortable knowing your safety is our number one priority." Then the Egg Mobile got caught in the suction as Eggman shouted, "Oh, shut uuuuuuuuuuuuuuup!" Twilight, Sonic and Sunny stopped as they were halfway down the tower. Sunny then said, "Hey, guys, look!" She then held out the Chaos Emerald. "You got the Chaos Emerald?!" Twilight asked. "Took it from that machine," Sunny said, pointing back at the machine, which then got sucked up by the growing sphere. The group looked towards the sphere and got shocked. "This might not end well," Sonic said. Then all of them started running down the tower. They ran as fast as they could, but they got caught in the suction. But then a bunch of Wisps caught them and brought them down to the ground. Twilight, Sonic and Sunny were all unconscious. They then gave off a white glow and they eventually made it back to the ground. The others on the ground ran up to the three as the three were gaining consciousness. "Sparkles!" MC shouted. "Sunny!" Hitch called out. "Sonic! Are you all OK?" Tails asked. "Man, I can't believe you made it through that!" "Like you thought we wouldn't?" Sonic asked. "You surprised us all, Sonic," Sally said. "True dat," Truemen added. "We had to do what we had to do," Sonic said. "Great job, Sonic," Tails said. "Thanks, but we had a little help during that last part," Sonic said. Then the wisps from before started glowing in a white light, going through the giant purple sphere. Then all the wisps in the sphere reverted to normal, and all the wisps gave off a big white light, making the purple sphere vanish. Then the wisps came down, and from the group of wisps came Yacker. He was happy to be free from Eggman's prison. Yacker started talking and Tails read the translation on his Miles Electric. "Uh, he said, 'Thank you for saving us.'" "You're welcome," Sonic said. "Thank you for saving us." Yacker talked again and Tails read the translation. "He says, 'You are welcome.'" "Looks like that things gotten the full translation," MC said. "Yeah, I finally got all the kinks out," Tails said. "We can talk to them perfectly now." "Well, we now have all seven Chaos Emeralds," Twilight said. "We should be able to send them and their worlds back to their part of the galaxy." "You know what?" Sunny said. "It's been a long day. I'm gonna... head on home... and get some sleep." "Sunny's right," MC said. "We'll head back home to Freedom Fighters mansion and get some rest." Then they all walked out away from the tower. Sonic then looked up at the wisps, who were all following. "What are we gonna do about them?" Sonic asked. MC looked up at the following wisps. "Do you think the mansion has enough room for 300,000 wisps?" Twilight asked. "Uh..." MC said. Later that night, Mutt was walking out of his room, heading for the kitchen. He walked up to the fridge, grabbed out the container of milk, and poured milk into a glass. He then drank from it. As he was drinking, he noticed all of the wisps in the living room, sleeping. "Uh..." Mutt said. Just then, his mouth was covered by Twilight. "Shh... let them sleep," Twilight said. "They'll be out of our hair by tomorrow." "Uh... okay?" Mutt said, confusedly. He then finished drinking the milk. Twilight then took the glass. "I'll wash it up," Twilight said. "Head on to bed." "Okay," Mutt said, walking back towards his room. Twilight then turned off the lights to get to bed herself.
