Trixie burst into Twilight’s room in a puff of blue smoke.
“Cursed one,” exclaimed Trixie. “The Great and Powerful Trixie is here to do away with you once and for all!”
“Hello, Trixie,” said Twilight in a daze. “It’s so nice to see you. Ho ware you doing?”
“Didn’t you hear what Trixie just said,” said Trixie in confusion. “Trixie has come to destroy you!”
“I’m afraid she’s not all there, Trixie my dear,” said Discord.
“What in the world,” exclaimed Trixie in shock. “Who or what are you!?”
“Another one? I feel so insulted,” said Discord. “I am Discord, the God of Chaos! It’s because of me that Equestria is the way it is now!”
“Well then it’s a lucky day for Trixie,” she proclaimed. “Trixie will get to destroy the two who ruined this great land! It’s two for the price of one!”
“I’m really more of an imprint, so I’m technically already dead,” said Discord with a sheepish grin.
“No matter,” exclaimed Trixie. “Trixie will still destroy you anyway!”
Trixie let out a beam of magic straight at Twilight/Discord, who easily blocked it with a magic shield. Twilight then start teleporting all over the room, with Trixie trying to shoot her wherever she went.
“Hold still,” exclaimed Trixie.
“Oh sure, I’ll do that,” said Discord sarcastically. “Because I soooooo wanna be zapped!”
Trixie continued to fire in anger. Finally, she shot at the ceiling, which stopped Twilight from teleporting.
“Now Trixie has you,” she declared.
“Not so fast, Trixie,” exclaimed Applejack.
Trixie turned around to see the Apple Gang, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, the Cake Twins, Rarity, Sweetie Belle, Sly, and Mal at the doorway; many of them pointing guns at her.
“You dare point your weapons at the Great and Powerful Trixie,” she proclaimed. “You think any of you have a chance at stopping me!?”
“Nah,” said Rainbow Dash. “We were just distracting you long enough for our secret weapon to show up.”
“What secret weapon,” asked Trixie.
“Me,” exclaimed Spike.
Trixie turned around to see Spike towering over her, his mouth snarling and his eyes glowing darkly.
“Ha,” exclaimed Trixie. “Trixie is not intimidated by some dragon!”
Trixie shot a beam of magic at Spike, which simply bounced off him. Shocked, Trixie shot another beam at him, and still nothing. Finally, Spike grabbed Trixie by the neck, hanging her up against a wall.
“This cannot be,” exclaimed Trixie.
“It’s called dragon rage,” said Spike.
“What is this nonsense you speak of,” asked Trixie.
“Oh it’s no nonsense,” said Discord. “Dragon rage is very real. Get a dragon angry enough and they go into a state that is so powerful, it’s pretty much impossible to stop them.”
“Was that discord talkin through Twilight,” asked a perplexed Applejack.
“Long story,” said Fluttershy. “I’ll explain later.”
“Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Pinkie Pie,” exclaimed Twilight. “I don’t believe it! I thought I’d never see any of you again!”
“Couldn’t keep us away if you tried, sugar cube,” said Applejack. “And that’s nothing but the truth.”
Upon saying that, Applejack began to glow brightly and this glow passed over to Twilight.
“What the hay was that,” asked Applejack.
“It’s your element,” said Fluttershy. “Twilight became unstable from us all parting ways. She’s also been the one controlling the sun and moon this whole time.”
“No way,” said Rainbow Dash.
“Impossible,” exclaimed Trixie. “A mere unicorn cannot control both the sun and the moon!”
“Not easily, anyway,” said Discord. “But with the Elements of Harmony, she’ll be able to properly control the sun and moon.”
“I already gave mine to her,” said Fluttershy. “Although I didn’t realize I was doing it at the time.”
“So Applejack gave her element up by being honest with Twilight,” asked Rainbow Dash.
“Yes,” said Fluttershy.
While everypony else was distracted, Trixie shot a beam of magic towards Twilight. But Rainbow Dash ran towards Twilight as fast as she could getting them both out of the way.
“Rainbow Dash,” said Twilight. “You save me! Oh my goodness, your poor wings! I’m so sorry that this had to happen to you.”
“Don’t worry about it, Twi,” said Rainbow Dash. “I should’ve never abandoned you in the first place. I shouldn’t have left the rest of you guys either. Pinkie and I have missed you all everyday.”
Rainbow Dash then began to glow, which then went into Twilight. Trixie then managed to teleport herself out of Spike’s grip, read to attack once again. But then Rarity attacked with her own magic.
“You stay away from our friend,” said Rarity.
“Trixie is not scared of some mere seamstress,” she exclaimed.
Spike grabbed a hold of Trixie again, placed a ring around her horn, placed her against the wall again, and pointed his revolver right at her face.
“Are you scared of me,” growled Spike.
“Don’t be silly,” exclaimed Trixie, trying to use her magic.
“That won’t do you any good,” said Spike. “Those rings are designed to block most magic.”
Spike then gave a devilish grin, pulled back the hammer of his revolver. He could see clearly that Trixie was now scared.
“You wouldn’t dare harm an unarmed pony,” said Trixie.
“I’ve done a lot of things that I’m not proud of,” said Spike. “I’ve done what I’ve needed to survive this hell. But I’ve never been as cruel as you! You’ve harmed innocents for your own amusement, harmed those I hold dear, and tried to kill the pony that raised me from the egg! I wouldn’t regret blowing your brains out for a moment!”
Sweat began pouring from Trixie’s brow, shutting her eyes tightly. Spike pulled the trigger, and there was a click. Trixie reopened her eyes in confusion.
“But I wouldn’t dare kill in front of Twilight,” said Spike. “Besides, you’re not worth a bullet. But I am gonna remind you that I’m out there watching you.”
Spike holstered his six shooter, and then pulled out a large knife. In one swipe he managed to cut off Trixie’s horn. He then dropped her to the ground.
“My horn,” yelled Trixie. “You…you cut off my horn!”
“You’re lucky I didn’t do worse,” said Spike. “When your horn grows back, and I discover you’re still using it to do bad, I’ll find you, and I’ll cut it off again. And next time, it will be slower, and more painful. It’s over now Trixie, you lost. Get out!”
Trixie ran out of the castle as fast as she possibly could. Spike went over to see Twilight.
“Are you alright, Twilight,” asked Spike.
“Yes, Spike,” said Twilight. “I can’t believe you went through all this for me. All of you.”
“It wasn’t easy for us, dear,” said Rarity. “But in the end, we are all connected by great magic. We could never stay away permanently. Take my element now.”
Rarity glowed, which flowed into Twilight.
“All that’s left is Pinkie Pie,” said Rainbow Dash.
“But…but I’m unable to laugh,” said Pinkie beginning to cry. “I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to again. I’m so sorry, Twilight. I don’t know what I can do otherwise.”
Pinkie started crying more and more, ashamed she was no longer the pony she once was. Twilight went to her side, draping her leg over Pinkie’s shoulder. Twilight simply smiled, and began to sing.
When you were a little filly and the sun was going down
“What are you doing, Twilight,” asked Pinkie.
Then Rainbow Dash began to sing.
The darkness and the shadows, they would always make you frown
“You guys,” said Pinkie, starting to Smile.
Applejack then sang a line.
You’d hide under your pillow
From what you thought you saw
But Granny Pie said that wasn’t the way
To deal with fears at all
“Then what is,” asked Pinkie with a smile.
Next came Fluttershy.
She said: "Pinkie, you gotta stand up tall
Learn to face your fears”
Then Rarity.
“You'll see that they can't hurt you
Just laugh to make them disappear."
Ha! Ha! Ha!
Then Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Rarity all sang together.
So, giggle at the ghostly
Guffaw at the grossly
Crack up at the creepy
Whoop it up with the weepy
Chortle at the kooky
Snortle at the spooky
Finally Pinkie Pie joined in really fast.
And tell that big dumb scary face to take a hike and leave you alone and if he thinks he can scare you then he's got another thing coming and the very idea of such a thing just makes you wanna... hahahaha...heh...
Laaaaaaauuugh!
Her mane and regular color tone came back to it’s former glory as she started to glow, which then went into Twilight. The reunited friends all fell to the ground laughing and giggling like they did in the old days. Others in the room were laughing with joy as well.
“I’ve missed this so much,” said Twilight.
“I know watcha mean, sugar cube,” said Applejack.
“Totally,” said Rainbow Dash.
“Agreed,” said Rarity.
“Absolutely,” said Fluttershy.
“Rightoroonydoony,” exclaimed Pinkie Pie.
They continued to laugh, and then Twilight began glowing again. This silenced the whole room, looking on to see what was going to happen. Twilight floated up, the glowing getting even brighter. The glow then seemed to explode a little, as Twilight began to grow a bit larger. Her whole body got taller, her mane and tail grew out and started to flow, her horn grew more prominently, and she began to grow large wings. Everypony was awestruck at this transformation. Twilight then levitated back to the ground.
“Wow,” exclaimed Pinkie Pie. “Twilight! You’ve turned into an alicorn!”
“How did that happen,” exclaimed Rainbow Dash.
“I don’t know,” said Twilight. “I didn’t know something like this could happen!”
Then descending from the sky, came the ghostly presences of Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, and even Discord.
“Holy shit,” exclaimed Rainbow Dash. “The Princess are alive!?”
“No, Rainbow Dash,” said Princess Celestia. “We are no longer part of this mortal plane. We’re merely spirits of who we once were.”
“Princess, what’s going on,” asked Twilight. “Why have I become an alicorn?”
“Simple my faithful student,” said Celestia. “You have shown great diligence with keeping the sun and the moon in their proper orbit.”
“But I caused all this,” said Twilight, tearing up. “And I destroyed you and your sister.”
“Mistakes happen, Twilight,” said Celestia. “What matters is what you’ve done to make things right. You and your friends have proven that friendship can stand the test of time. I’m proud of you all, my little ponies.”
“But who’s going to restore Equestria, now that you’re gone, Princess,” asked Twilight.
“I think the best choice for Equestria is right in front of me,” said Celestia with a smile.
“Me,” asked Twilight. But I’m…”
“The best pony for the job,” interrupted Rainbow Dash.
“It’ll take some time, but eventually the other ponies will accept you,” said Applejack.
“And we’ll do all we can to have them accept you,” said Rarity.
“They’ll see how kind you truly are,” said Fluttershy.
“And we’ll throw a huge party,” exclaimed Pinkie Pie with a large grin.
Twilight began crying in joy at the responses from her friends.
“You can do anything with your friend by your side,” said Celestia.
Celesita and Luna then vanished, leaving Discord behind.
“You done good, Ms. Sparkle,” said Discord with a grin.
“Um, thanks,” said Twilight confusingly. “I figured you’d be mad at me.”
“Oh think nothing of it,” said Discord. “There will always be chaos around! I myself may not be here physically, but true chaos never dies! Farewell!”
Discord vanished.
“That was one crazy deity,” said Applejack.
“I’m gonna miss the chocolate milk rain though,” said Pinkie Pie. “And the cotton candy clouds.”
“So what’s the first order of business,” asked Rainbow Dash.
“I think I have an idea,” said Twilight.
Twilight flew through the hole in the roof, hovering in the sky. Her eyes began to glow brightly, along with her horn. She let out a huge wave of energy, that spread throughout all of Equestria. The rest of them ran out of the castle to see what she was doing. What was lost, was being restored to it’s former splendor. Grass was growing once more, trees were popping out of the ground, rivers were flowing with water. Everypony looked on in awe at this site. Twilight even restored Sweet Apple Acres, farm house and all. Twilight flew down to be with the others. She then walked over to one of the vehicles driven by Apple Bloom. She saw Scootaloo’s lifeless body, along with several other bodies. Using more magic, twilight managed to bring all those dead back. Scootaloo let out a huge gasp and began coughing. Apple Bloom and Sweet Belle ran to her, hugging her as tightly as they could.
“Hey watch it,” said Scootaloo, “Jeez, you act as if I was dead.”
“You were,” exclaimed Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle.
“Oh,” said a shocked Scootaloo. “Guess I forgot.”
The other ponies who had fallen were back on their hooves, confused by what was going on. Twilight even fixed Sly and Rainbow Dash’s wings.
“Trixie is no longer in power,” exclaimed Spike. “You have Twilight Sparkle to thank for bringing you back to life. I know caused a lot of troubles. There’s been a lot of death and sadness. But if we all work together, we can bring Equestria back to it’s former glory. So what do you all say?”
There was a moment of silence, before all the resurrected ponies bowed their heads to Twilight.
“We’re tired of all the fighting,” said one pony. “We just want to be at peace now.”
“It will take time,” exclaimed Twilight. “But with all your help, we can make this land great again!”
Everypony then proceeded to cheer and clap and jump for joy.
“We got a lot of work to do, Twilight,” said Spike.
“I know, Spike,” said Twilight. “But I think we’ll be able to make it. I owe so much to you.”
“What are number one assistants for,” said Spike with a smile.
It was a smile that reminded Twilight of when Spike was just a baby dragon. He was long from being a baby. He was her assistant, her friend, her protector, her brother. She leaned in a little, tapped her horn against Spike’s eye, and took away his scar. Spike felt the former spot of his scar.
“You don’t need that anymore,” said Twilight with an affectionate smile. “I’m very proud of you, Spike. I couldn’t have asked for a better assistant.”
The two embraced in a warm hug. The rest of Twilight’s friends decided to join in on the hug, and all began to laugh in joy. They had been through quite an ordeal: mass devastation, war, famine, and doing what had to be done to survive. There was a lot of work ahead of them, but they knew with each other anything was possible.
