Today was not a good day for Timmy Turner.
It all started out so well, he was up to his old habit of making Trilogy wishes in the morning before breakfast with his fairy godparents Cosmo and Wanda, and their baby Poof, but suddenly Jorgen showed up and abruptly ended their fun. Worst of all, he couldn’t find his fairies anywhere. That would not be such a big deal if his parents, best friends, teacher, and pretty much everyone in Dimmsdale pretty much didn’t suddenly forget who he was.
Worst of all, he was now being chased throughout town by some evil robot chanting “Eliminate Timmy Turner” over and over and shooting lasers at him. It was a good thing he was using AJ’s hover car or he would be in a much worse situation than he already was. However, in a dark twist of fate, the robot was able to blast his hover car and the eleven year old was now falling from the sky.
Luckily for him, Jorgen Von Strangle was floating from a distance and saw that the pink hatted buck tooth boy was falling from a great height and the robot was charging up a big laser. While he did think about using magic to make his landing softer, the robot could still catch the boy. So he resorted to his most desperate measure.
He lit up his big wand and in a flash, a portal appeared above Timmy and he fell right in, Jorgen was able to close it before the robot could comprehend what just happened. Jorgen breathed a sigh of relief, Timmy Turner was safe, and given where he sent him, he made sure it would stay that way.
Besides, given the high stakes, it only made sense to call on some old allies for help.
It was a pretty nice day in Ponyville all things considered. The sun was shining and the town was starting to do better ever since King Sombra had attacked. However, there was still some damaged caused by the dark rocks he put everywhere. While all of those were gone thanks to the efforts of Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie. There was still a significant amount of damage from Sombra’s onslaught, damage that Twilight and her friends were all too happy to help fix… well, most of them were anyway.
“I can’t believe I let you and Twilight talk me into this.” Rainbow Dash groaned towards Applejack as she painted a fresh coat of white paint onto one of the houses of Ponyville.
“Well sugarcube, it is the right thing to do after what happened with King Sombra and all.” Applejack smirked lightly at the rainbow haired pegasus.
“Applejack does have a point,” Fluttershy spoke up as she filled up some of the holes Sombra left with potting soil, “Besides, if we’re going to have a bigger role in protecting Equestria, we may as well fix the damages that occurred because of a major meanie pants.”
“I must admit though, Twilight appears to be taking the whole situation pretty hard.” Rarity admits solemnly as she levitated some paint buckets over, “I know she says she’s gotten over it, but I don’t think she truly has.”
Suddenly Pinkie Pie popped out of an uncovered hole and decided to speak up, “Well if I had to witness an invasion where my future subjects were turned into slaves, I think it would make me pretty sad.”
“Laying it on thick, aren’t ya Pinkie?” Applejack admits, kind of impressed with how easily the party pony was able to figure everything out.
“Eh, just Pinkie Sense.” Pinkie shrugged with a reassuring smile.
“What do you girls think Twilight’s doing right now anyway?” Rarity asked curiously.
“Last I saw her, she was talking to Mayor Mare.” Applejack told the group.
Twilight was indeed helping Mayor Mare out, currently she was reattaching a wood plank onto the mayor’s building to stabilize it after the attack Sombra caused. Once she was finished, she flew back down to where Mayor Mare, Spike, and Starlight Glimmer were all waiting for her.
“Thank you so much for fixing that Princess Twilight. I was getting really concerned about how stable this old building would be.” Mayor Mare smiled at the alicorn.
“No problem mayor. Is there anything else I could help you out with?” Twilight asked as she wiped the sweat off her brow.
“No, your generous deed today was enough. You can probably tell your friends they can stop for the day, they have been working for quite a while now. Until then, I look forward to your coronation.” Mayor Mare smiled before retreating to her office, and once she was gone Twilight was left giving a solemn sigh and unfortunately for her, Starlight and Spike noticed.
“Twilight, is everything okay?” Spike asked in concern.
Twilight immediately turned to her friends and kept a brave face for them, “I’m fine Spike, no need to worry.”
“Really? Because when Mayor Mare mentioned the coronation you seemed to get more downtrodden. Also, you were struggling quite a bit with stabilizing that place and when I asked if I could help you, you shut me down.” Starlight pushed the subject forward to the point where Twilight couldn’t deny something was up. The alicorn sighed and began to confess.
“Okay, I’ll admit, something has been bothering me.” Twilight sighed sadly, “It’s just that we barely stopped Sombra on our own and that was on Lord Of Chaos training wheels. I’m worried that if I become the ruler, I won’t be able to protect Equestria from harm. Worst of all, I nearly lost you two to Sombra’s mind control.”
Spike and Starlight shared a sad look towards one another and Starlight immediately put a hoof around Twilight to comfort her, “I don’t exactly know how you were feeling when you saw us in the state Sombra put us in, but I can assure that you will be a good ruler. You stopped countless of threats before and sometimes you didn’t even need the Elements. Trust me, you’ll adjust.” Starlight said encouragingly.
Twilight smiled softly at Starlight and Spike before Pinkie Pie suddenly began running over.
“TWILIGHT! You gotta come quick! Some weird flesh colored monkey fell from a portal in the sky. You gotta come quick!” Pinkie Pie cried out in fear.
Twilight, Starlight, and Spike shared a worried look before following Pinkie Pie to the middle of the town, ponies were screaming and running as they got closer to where the rest of their friends were. Twilight and Starlight then gasped at what they saw.
A pink hatted buck toothed boy with brown hair in front of them, who was currently laying on the ground, looking just as confused as they were.
Unaware of all the chaos, Princess Celestia was absentmindedly looking over some letters from some of the nobles in her throne when suddenly a loud pink explosion appeared out of thin air, causing her to abruptly stop what she was doing.
The cloud of smoke dissipated to reveal that Jorgen was now standing in front of Celestia.
“Jorgen Von Strangle? I was not expecting this.” Celestia exclaimed with shock.
“Princess Celestia. I bring unfortunate news from Fairy World. The darkness has returned.” Jorgen told the princess ominously which caused her to gasp in shock.
