After helping Rainbow, Lloyd, and Squidward escape from the changeling-infested prison, the travelers went on to their journey.
"So, three of you guys were sent on a quest to find the last five elements since you have one of them?" Rainbow asked.
"Yeah." Kai answered. "It was very important."
"I can see that." Rainbow said. "Anyway, thanks for helping us out of that prison. I wonder what happened to the human guards that worked there."
"They all got locked up." Jay added. "Every. Single. One. Even the pony guards got locked up by those changelings."
Squidward looks at Pinkie's appearance. "I've heard of Squid Ponies before, but what happens when you lock them up?"
"Squid Ponies can slip out of cells easily to escape without the guards knowing." Pinkie said.
Nya turns to Twilight. "So, Twilight, what's next?"
Twilight looks at the medallion. "According to the medallion, we have to find the Element of Generosity."
"But where are we going to find him or her?" Kai asked.
The travelers looked in front of them and saw a big village.
"I think over there." Twilight said pointing to the village.
The travelers entered the village starting to look for the Element of Generosity.
Nya looked at the map. "According to the map, we are at Crystal Falls."
Twilight looked at the medallion and saw it glowing purple. "The Element of Generosity is here, alright. But where?"
Pinkie sniffs the air and turns around. "I suppose that cloaked mare can help us."
The rest of the travelers looked to where Pinkie was looking and saw a cloaked unicorn running right at them. The unicorn jumps over the travelers and lands on the ground with no damage. Then three giant dogs chasing the unicorn ran through the travelers.
"Give us back that gem!" One of the dogs yelled.
"Rude!" Rainbow yelled. "Haven't any of you heard of the phrase, 'excuse me'!?"
"Who was that unicorn?" Lloyd asked.
"I know who that is!" Jay exclaimed.
"You do?" Squidward asked.
"That is Rarity!" Jay explained. "She is a well-known jewel thief that steals back valuable stuff to the villagers, money to the rich, and gems of gem owners. Her first theft was when a thief broke into the castle of the Mainland and stole the king's crown. But Rarity managed to steal it back and return it to the king in one piece. And she's the daughter of the well known jewel thieves of Toonera. And she also steals gems from those Diamond Dogs. But what I don't know is who she works with."
"She must be the Element of Generosity!" Twilight exclaimed. "The medallion says we have to follow her!"
"Maybe we should." Nya said.
The travelers started to run after the Diamond Dogs that were chasing the jewel thief, but they didn't know how to get pass them so they could catch the jewel thief.
"How are we going to get pass the those Diamond Dogs?" Lloyd asked.
Pinkie looked up and found a flagpole as she grabbed one of her tentacles and threw it at the flagpole. The rest stopped and turned to Pinkie who flung herself onto the rooftops. She landed on the roof and started to run from one roof to another. She now jumped off the building and landed on the ground with no damage as she squirted ink at the Diamond Dogs.
"Little did you guys know, Squid Ponies have no fall damage." Jay said. "Even in higher heights."
The travelers kept running after the jewel thief. The jewel thief now jumped over lots of people who are walking. The travelers stopped seeing the crowd of villagers crossing. But Twilight managed to use her magic to carry the villagers to help the rest pass. Twilight followed the others and put the villagers down. The travelers were now at a bridge that the jewel thief was on. After they crossed the bridge, the jewel thief jumped into cave as a door closed. The travelers stopped and groaned in frustration.
"We were so close!" Lloyd exclaimed.
"Now what are we going to do?" Squidward asked.
Twilight looked around and found an entrance to the cave. "We can go into there."
The rest looked to where Twilight was looking. The travelers entered the entrance trying to find the jewel thief that might be the Element of Generosity.
"This place must be a mine or something." Squidward added. "Just looked around you. You can see many shiny jewels. Someone might be looking for all these."
"The gems here are pretty," Twilight said. "But we need to focus on the mission."
"Oh, take it easy, Twilight." Jay replied. "We could just take one of them." He takes one gem out of the wall. "See? It's not that-" He stopped when the wall fell down. "Bad."
Pinkie's eyes lit up with joy. "Look at all these gems! So shiny. So beautiful."
"How many are there?" Kai asked.
Twilight counted the gems. "Ten million."
"Ten million jewels?" Rainbow asked. "Awesome!"
"I say we take a good look." Jay added.
The travelers went out of the tunnel and started walking through the jewels.
"These are a lot of gems." Nya said.
"I knew this was a jewel mine!" Squidward exclaimed.
"But who's been doing all this but Rarity?" Jay asked.
Pinkie sniffed the air as she turned and saw a little girl that looked twelve years old with brown hair wearing a white shirt, a pale blue skirt, black shoes, a red hairband, braces, and a brown cloak staring back at her. "Guys, we have a visitor."
The rest looked to where Pinkie was looking and found the little girl running away.
"We have to follow her!" Twilight said. "She might be with someone!"
The travelers run after the little girl that was spying on them. They ran as fast as they could to get her, but the little girl was fast.
'This girl is fast.' Rainbow thought. 'Even faster than me.'
The little girl jumped as the travelers stopped and found many gems in buckets.
"SERIOUSLY!" Jay yelled. "Who's working with Rarity!?"
The rock that the travelers are on cracks as the travelers fall down to the ground. Twilight saw Rainbow and Lloyd fall in a tunnel. The travelers look up and saw the jewel thief and the little girl standing with a man with black hair wearing a white shirt, a black vest, black pants, and black shoes. The jewel thief takes the hood off and it showed a white unicorn with sapphire blue eyes and a purple fancy mane.
"You're Rarity?" Twilight asked.
"How in the world do you know my name?" Rarity asked.
"Ask Jay." Kai said. "He told us a lot about you."
"Alright, no more funny business!" The man in black yelled. "Who are you are what are you doing in this mine?"
"We're here for the Element of Generosity." Twilight said. "We don't mean any harm."
"Don't mean any harm, huh?" The man in black asked. "Then why are you here? Are you here to steal all of these gems and give them to those Diamond Dogs out there?"
"Heck no." Jay scowled. "We're here for help and that's it. Can't you see that we're trying to save the world?"
The little girl puts on a shocked face. "Did you say save the world?"
"Uh, yeah." Jay said.
"Three of us were sent on a quest to find five more elements since we have one of them." Twilight explained. "We have Magic, Laughter, and Loyalty. And now we need Generosity. And you, Rarity, are one of those elements." She holds the medallion. "And with this medallion, we have all answers. So please, we need you and your friends to help us complete this journey to defeat Plankton."
"Who's Plankton?" Squidward asked.
"That's someone I forgot to tell you." Twilight answered. "Plankton is an evil wizard who is the boss of every threat of this world. His plan is to destroy the balance, and bring Toonera to infinite darkness."
"So that's why you let me and Jay come with you guys." Pinkie said.
"Darken Toonera?" Rarity asked. "Well we can let that happen. I'll help you. But first, I should tell you my friends. This is Mabel Pines, a well-trained spy and my apprentice, and this is Cole, a combat expert that plays by his own rules."
"I'll help you finish your mission." Mabel said.
"Oh no." Cole added. "There is no way I'm helping those intruders."
"Oh, Cole, can't you just give them a chance?" Rarity asked. "We can't just leave them behind. They'll fail their mission."
"Still not doing it." Cole said.
Mabel got out a dagger and pointed it at Cole. "Don't make me hurt you."
Cole wore a frightened face and sighed. "Fine."
"Thank you." Twilight said. "But two of our friends fell into a pit. Do you know where it leads to?"
"It leads to the lair of the Sponge Bat." Mabel said.
Meanwhile, Rainbow and Lloyd fell into a pile of gems not getting a single scratch from them. They pop their heads out of the pile and saw more piles of gems.
"That's a lot of gems over there." Rainbow said.
"Yeah." Lloyd replied. "But some of them looked bitten. Like something was eating them."
Rainbow flies out of the gem pile and inspects one of them and found it bitten. "Some of them are bitten, all right."
Lloyd slides of the gem pile and picked up one of them. "Maybe the bitten ones are leftovers."
"I say we get out of here before we get eaten by whatever consumes these gems." Rainbow said.
Lloyd puts the bitten gem into his bag.
"What are you doing?" Rainbow asked.
"I'm taking one for inspection." Lloyd answered.
Rainbow and Lloyd started looking for a way out, but what they don't know is that they were being watched by the something that was eating those gems.
Rainbow heard a thud. "Lloyd, did you hear that?"
"I heard it alright." Lloyd said.
They both put on a shocked face as they turn around and saw a sponge with bat wings on his back and blue eyes wearing a messy white shirt and brown pants staring at them like they were dinner.
"Stay completely still." Lloyd whispered.
"Why should I?" Rainbow asked.
"Something tells me that thing can sense movement." Lloyd said.
"What makes you think that?" Rainbow asked.
"I think it's mistaking us as gems." Lloyd added.
"Says you!" Rainbow yelled.
The Sponge Bat hissed as Rainbow and Lloyd scream in fear and run for an exit. They looked everywhere for a way out, but Rainbow found luck seeing a big hole in the ceiling.
'Yes!' Rainbow thought. 'The sun!'
Rainbow picked up Lloyd and flew to the big hole, but the Sponge Bat made an avalanche of rocks falling to Rainbow and Lloyd.
Rainbow turned and saw the rock avalanche. "Oh, you've got to be kidding me." She threw Lloyd to her back and flew as fast as she could to get away from the avalanche. But a rock fell onto Rainbow's head, which made her fall down. Lloyd got up and helped Rainbow get up on her legs.
"You okay?" Lloyd asked.
"I think so." Rainbow said.
The Sponge Bat landed as Rainbow and Lloyd braced themselves. The Sponge Bat screeched, then he spoke. "Have you fell in my lair on accident?"
Rainbow stopped bracing herself and wore a shocked face. "You can talk?"
"Obviously." The Sponge Bat said.
Lloyd was shocked, but he shook his head and glared at the Sponge Bat angrily. "No more of that! What are you, and why do you want to eat us!?"
"Don't be silly." The Sponge Bat added. "I don't eat humans. I don't eat ponies either." He turns to Rainbow and gasped. "Are you Rainbow Dash?"
"Uh, yeah." Rainbow added. "Why?"
"I've heard a lot about you!" The Sponge Bat explained. "You trained as a cadet at the Wonderbolts Academy, where they teach kids and teens how to fight. After you graduated, you became a well-known soldier and protected the humans from every threat that wants to hurt them. I also heard that your general, Spitfire, has been rescued by a Squid Pony. But one day, you've been injured just to protect your fellow soldiers. But after your wing has healed, you took a break from being a soldier. But one day, you saved someone named Lloyd Garmadon from a burning building. I want to be the hero that you are today, Rainbow. You're my idol."
Rainbow smiled. "I never knew that I had a Sponge Bat as a fan. Anyway, what's your name?"
"Spongebob Squarepants." The Sponge Bat said. "I was the one who was devouring those gems. Speaking of gems," He turns to Lloyd. "I would like that gem that you collected."
Lloyd opened his bag and took out the bitten gem. Spongebob took the gem and ate it in one bite.
"That's one delicious ruby." Spongbob said.
"Do you know a way to get out of here?" Rainbow asked.
"Why, yes." Spongebob answered. "Just follow me and I'll show you the way."
Rainbow and Lloyd followed Spongebob to the exit of his lair.
Meanwhile, the travelers were following Rarity, Mabel, and Cole to the lair of the Sponge Bat to retrieve Rainbow and Lloyd.
"So, what's this Sponge Bat like?" Twilight asked.
"He is amazing." Mabel explained. "He's like our personal pet to have. And we feed him some gems when he's hungry. But he finds magical jewels not fresh. He said all Sponge Bats hate magic gems."
Rarity looked around and found the entrance to the Sponge Bat's lair. "I believe we're here."
The travelers heard Rainbow and Lloyd talking to someone. But Twilight managed to take a look and found Rainbow and Lloyd talking to the Sponge Bat. The rest took a look and saw what Twilight was seeing right now.
"Guys! I have a fan!" Rainbow exclaimed happily.
Rarity walks up to the Sponge Bat. "May I present Spongebob Squarepants."
"I've read books about Sponge Bats before." Nya added. "But are some of them friendly?"
"Sponge Bats are generous." Mabel said. "They give food to people every year on special occasions. They also fought with the pegasi when needed to protect their kind, ponies, and humans."
"That makes a lot of sense." Jay added.
"Spongebob," Rarity started. "We're going on a quest with these people to defeat a menacing wizard. Do you want to come?"
Spongebob gasped in joy. "Would I?" He flew to one of the gem piles as he pulled a sack out of his pocket and stuffed some gems into it. Then he flew back to the travelers. "I'm ready!"
After that, the travelers walk out of the cave continuing their journey.
Kai turned to Twilight. "What's next?"
Twilight looked at the medallion. "We need Kindness and Honesty next."
