"RAINBOW! RAINBOOOW!" Applejack called towards the sky.
"Uh, I'M KIND OF BUSY HERE!" Rainbow yelled back, tackling a Changeling to the ground.
"Oh, right! Sorry!" Applejack brought her lasso out and began picking off the changelings.
++++++
"SPIKE! I DON'T THINK THIS BARRICADE'S GOING TO LAST MUCH LONGER!" Lyra yelled with a worried tone.
"GO UPSTAIRS! I'LL TAKE CARE OF THEM!" Spike pointed a finger towards the stairs.
Lyra shook her head, "YOU'RE NOT INVINCIBLE! I'M GOING TO FIGHT TOO!"
Pinkie nodded reluctantly, pulling her Party Cannon out and pointing it at the door. "ME TOO!"
The three nodded and set up tables to serve as cover, all awaiting the Changelings to break in...but it grew silent. Minutes later, Rainbow Dash burst through the door with Applejack behind her.
"GAH!" Pinkie yelled, setting off her cannon.
Confetti and balloons covered the two mares by the door.
"Pinkie." Rainbow said blankly, "It's us."
Pinkie poked her head from the tables and lit up.
"Dashie! Applejack!" she ran over and hugged her friends.
Rainbow Dash smiled, "Good to see you too, Pinkie."
Applejack straightened her hat. "Ah hate to break up yer little reunion, but we should go get Flutters, Twilight and Rarity!"
"I'm coming too!" Spike said, striking a heroic pose.
"Me too!" Lyra said happily.
"Well thanks, Ms-?" Applejack tilted her head.
"Heartstrings. Lyra Heartstrings." she grinned.
++++++
"Twilight. whut's goin' on in the castle?" Applebloom asked, pointing at it threw the window.
Twilight looked out and saw the top room of the castle, lighting up different colors and emitting smoke.
Twilight got worried, "I, I don't know Applebloom."
Suddenly, the door opened, revealing the others.
Twilight turned and grinned. "Nice, Applejack! Now we just have to get the Elements of Harmony!
A hoof flew up. "Oh, oh! I wanna help too!" Lyra said.
"What's with you and wanting to help us?" Rainbow asked.
"Eh, I dunno. I'm bored."
"Er, okay then?" Twilight said. "Anyways, Spike, I'm leaving you here again. I doubt Canterlot is any better than this."
Spike nodded.
"Alright! Girls, off to Canterlot!
++++++
"You'll never win, Discord!"
"Oh, I know, but I'll at least have fun winning in not winning." he grinned.
"Huh?"
Queen Chrysalis grinned. "Thanks for the boost." Then she knocked down Princess Luna.
"Argh! Stupid head!" Celestia cursed.
"Girls! Go help the Princesses! I'll go get the Elements!"
"Ya don't have to tell me twice!" Applejack said, running into battle alongside Rainbow Dash.
The others nodded and ran off. Twilight teleported herself towards the Elements, seeing the door was still locked.
"Princess Celestia! The door!"
"Oh! Right!" she smiled and slammed Discord into the ground and casually walked over to the door to open it, before walking back and wrestling him.
Twilight stared, slack-jawed at Princess Celestia before gaining her composure and grabbing the Elements.
"Girls! OVER HERE!" Twilight put on her headpiece.
Fluttershy was the first to head towards Twilight, but was stopped by Discord turning her sour. She lost her colors immediately and stared at Discord angrily.
"NO. PONY. TOUCHES MEEEE!!!" she screamed, ceasing all the fighting and charging at Discord.
"AHH!" he yelled, stopping her midway and turning her back.
Fluttershy regained her colors and smiled sweetly. "Thank you."
She ran over to Twilight and the fighting continued. The other Elements followed soon after, along with Lyra. They all put on their Elements and Lyra frowned.
"I don't get a cool necklace-thingy?" she asked sadly.
"Well, uh, you're not an Ele-"
"Here ya go!" Pinkie exclaimed, pulling a necklace with Lyra's Cutie Mark on it and giving it to her.
She bit into it, "Is this real gold!?"
"Eeyup!" Pinkie smiled.
"Sa-weeet." she said, putting on her 'Element' on.
"Alright girls! And, Lyra? Formation!"
"Where do I go!?" Lyra asked, running around.
Rainbow Dash shrugged.
"Nice." Lyra said disappointingly.
Twilight's eyes began to glow, and the Elements were levitated, along with Lyra.
"WHOA, WHOA, WHOA! WHAT'S GOING ON!?" Lyra yelled, flailing her limbs around.
Discord saw the formations and frowned.
"Chrysalis! They're formating!"
She looked at the Elements and nodded, lighting up her horn and emitting a large beam of light. Not soon after, loads of Changelings swarmed into the building and camouflaged as Discord and Queen Chrysalis.
Twilight stopped, and the other Elements fell down gently, while Lyra face planted into the ground.
"Where are the real ones?!"
The four Royal ponies started clearing out the Changelings, and Discord and Queen Chrysalis jumped out of the window unnoticed. Not soon after, the Changelings retreated, following the Princess and Discord into the Everfree Forest. All the ponies gathered around the window and watched as they left.
"COWARDS!" Rainbow Dash yelled, waving her hoof into the air angrily.
After seeing them leave, Princess Celestia moved away from the window and began walking away.
"Princess! Where are you going!?" Twilight asked.
Princess Celestia pointed a hoof forward while she walked.
"I've had enough of this, 'saving the world' stuff. I'm going to go play Haylo 4 or Call Of Cutie: Blank Ops 2, whichever comes first."
Princess Luna beamed and ran after her sister.
"Wait for me!"
The two Royal Sisters left, leaving Shining Armor and Princess Cadence with the Elements.
Shining Armor was the first to speak, "Well, it was nice seeing you, Twi. Even if it was in a situation like this.."
Twilight snickered, "You too, BBBFF. Nice seeing you too, Cadence!"
They both got in position and did their 'secret' hoofshake.
"Sunshine, sunshine, ladybugs awake! Clap your hooves and do a little shake!" the two said in unison.
"Uh, what was that?" Lyra asked.
Twilight smiled, "It was nothing."
Then the couple left, leaving Lyra and the Elements behind. As they started to walk out of the castle, Twilight spoke, looking at Lyra with curiosity.
"So what Element are you? I thought there were only six, but the spell said otherwise."
Lyra shrugged, "I dunno, but this necklace is pretty awesome." she picked it up and began examining it.
"Maybe it's the Element of Awesome."
Rainbow Dash interrupted, "If there was an Element of Awesome, it would be me!"
Lyra gave a sly smile. "Fate says otherwise, Loyalty." she teased.
"I would still be the Element of Awesome, though! 'cause I'm awesome!"
*Cough*"Conceited."*Cough**Cough* Lyra smirked.
"Hey! If anyone's conceited, it's you! You said you would be the Element of Awesome!"
"So did you, but I didn't go around, saying, 'Oh, look at me! I'm the most awesome mare in Ponyville! All of you suck!'" Lyra pointed.
"Shut up." Rainbow growled.
Lyra laughed.
Twilight stopped at the train station and looked at Lyra.
"Well, I guess since you're now an Element, we should start talking more, to actually find out what Element you actually are."
Lyra nodded. "Yeah, that sounds cool."
"YAY!" Pinkie exclaimed, "Now I can throw you a 'You're an Element that mysteriously appeared out of nowhere' party!"
"Wait, but shouldn't YOU know what Element I am? I mean, you pulled it out of YOUR mane!" Lyra asked.
Pinkie looked up at her head.
"It wasn't MY decision, it was my mane's! I'll never know how it does it."
"Err, okay?"
++++++
"Bon Bon! I'm home from saving Equestria from utter destruction! And I got a cool necklace, too!" No answer.
"Bon Bon?" Lyra called, searching the house for her friend. She came to her room and saw her passed out on the bed, chocolate lining her mouth. HER chocolate. Lyra grunted and got in her bed, throwing the wrappers on the ground and pushing Bon Bon on the floor with a loud THUMP.
"Hope you enjoy the headache in the morning." she grinned, looking at the box.
*CONTAINS ALCOHOLIC FLUIDS*
The End.
++++++
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK.
Lyra opened the door.
"Hey, Lyra! You want to play Poker with me and the others?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"No thanks, I don't like losing bits. Maybe if you didn't have that stupid smirk showing that you know how to play Poker like a pro, I would've played." Lyra closed the door.
Now it's THE END. (Seriously.)
