Diamond Tiara opened her eyes and rubbed her head. "What happened?" She finds her tiara on the ground as she picks it up and placed it on her head. As she turned to the others, she saw them near the door in slow motion.
Patrick was pounding slowly on the doors. "I want out!"
Kenny muffled in slow motion trying to break the windows with his magic.
"Open!" Cole yelled in slow motion trying to break the door down.
Diamond Tiara was freaking out. She found a smashed bottle on the ground as she ran to it. "What kind of potion did that thing splash you guys with?" She turned the bottle around and saw it labeled 'Slowness'. On the bottom of the label, it said 'Lasts for 10 hours. Removes with water'. "I just need some water to splash you guys with." She turned around and saw a big bucket of water. She ran to the big bucket and pushed it down spilling the water all over the others.
"Huh?" Patrick asked walking backwards in slow motion as he tripped on the bottle and fell over to Diamond Tiara.
Diamond Tiara turned and saw Patrick about to fall on her. The others turned and saw Patrick falling on Diamond Tiara.
"Watch out!" Bloo warned in slow motion.
"Diamond Tiara!" Jay yelled in slow motion, then went back to normal. "Get out of the way!"
Diamond Tiara went out of the way as Patrick slammed on the wall back first.
Everyone was now shocked.
"Wow." Coloratura said. "That was weird."
"Did someone say something?" Mabel asked wearing a confused face.
"I can't believe my eyes." Lloyd added. "That thing took the king."
"What was that?" Spongebob asked.
"I have no idea." Rainbow said. "But once I get my hooves on that thing, I'm going to crush him!"
Pixal turned to her proteges, who nodded at her to tell the truth. She then turned to the others. "That 'what' is a 'who'."
The others turn to Pixal.
"What to you mean?" Twilight asked.
"Bill Cipher." Pixal explained. "A dangerous demon who plots to destroy all wizards and witches. Our kind was in a war with him and his Cipherlings for years. And none of the other wizards and witches were strong enough to destroy him. But legend says that only one wizard can stop the war."
"What are you talking about?" Coloratura asked.
"My students and I are actually wizards from the island kingdom of Stellari Kombar." Pixal said." Or Wizard Kingdom. The kingdom was guarded by four brave wizards, Moondancer, Pacifica Northwest, Wander, and the leader, Benson. They were also the rulers of Stellari Kombar. That's when Bill and his Cipherlings attacked. So the rulers sent us on a quest to find the most powerful wizard of all. The Pine Tree."
"What's the Pine Tree?" Apple Bloom asked.
Kenny muffled the answer.
"Kenny said the Pine Tree is the most powerful wizard of all of Toonera that can control the power of the Elements of Harmony." Silver Spoon translated. "The Pine Tree's crystal was passed on from one wizard or witch to another for many years. And only the crystal can find it's new match."
"What crystal?" Cole asked.
Pixal got out the blue tree-shaped gem. "This crystal."
"Bleh. Magic gem." Spongebob said. (Since he's a Sponge Bat in this story)
"Kenny, how do you know what the Pine Tree is?" Mabel asked.
"Kenny was once one of Pixal's proteges before he met us." Fluttershy answered. "Until he and the others were being chased by changelings and he got blasted off the flying ship and fell into a river."
Silver Spoon smiled. "Gumball, Kenny, and I were great friends at Starswirl's School for Wizards and Witches. Kenny was the greatest friend we had. Kind, amazing, he was even popular. And he was the most powerful wizard of the school, we thought he was the Pine Tree. But we stood corrected told that he wasn't, but Kenny didn't care. One day when we were on a field trip with Ms. Pixal, we were being attacked by changelings. Then we lost Kenny when he got blasted off the ship. When we came back from our trip, everyone thought that Kenny was dead. They even mourned for him. But now that we found him, we're so happy."
Kenny turned to Gumball and muffled a question.
"It's all a blur," Gumball said. "But we might find the answer once we get to Stellari Kombar. Bill got every wizard and witch on that island. He even turned to rulers into stone."
Kenny wore a shocked face.
"And only the Pine Tree can set them free."
Pixal turned to Dipper as she saw the crystal glow brighter. The others saw it glowing as well.
"What's going on with it?" Rarity asked.
"The crystal found it's new wielder!" Pixal answered seeing the crystal fly out of her hands.
The crystal flew to Dipper and floated onto Dipper's neck making the glow around his hand fade.
Dipper looked at his hand. "I don't understand. Why did the crystal choose me?"
Kenny muffled explaining why the crystal chose Dipper.
"Kenny said that you have the blood of a wizard." Silver Spoon translated. "Which explains why your dagger turned into a sword, why a blue orb flew from your hand to a lamp, and why your hand was glowing."
"But I'm not that strong." Dipper said. "If I'm the next Pine Tree, why did I not know this until now?"
Gumball shrugged. "Listen, the Pine Tree existed for years. You see, the gem was found in a cave by a unicorn name Starswirl the Bearded and was given to another unicorn named Clover the Clever, the first Pine Tree. Then it was passed on to Benson, who chose friendship and teamwork over the world, then the jewel was passed on to Moondancer, who taught children the true meaning of friendship, then passed on to Wander, who made everyone smile with the gift of song, and was passed on to Pacifica, who gave the poor what they needed. Which created Stellari Kombar and made those four the rulers. That's when the rulers found out that the jewel was connected to six gems called the Elements of Harmony."
"We know what they are." Rainbow said.
"I heard of them before I met all of you." Diamond Tiara added.
"As I was saying," Gumball continued. "The Pine Tree is the only way to stop this war and the only way to stop Bill from putting wizards and witches into extinction. And without the Pine Tree, we'll never exist anymore."
The others gasped.
"Those poor wizards out there." Fluttershy added. "Being kept in a bubble of one of the worst demons alive."
"We have to go out there!" Kai demanded.
"Yes, we do." Silver Spoon replied. "But how do we get out of here?"
"I got it!" Pinkie said as she squirted ink at the doors, turned into a squid, and squeezed through the doors.
The others heard the doors unlock and saw it open.
"Problem solved!" Pinkie exclaimed.
"And that, my friends, is the greatest pony hybrid that knows how to escape." Jay said.
The Elements, their friends, the crusaders, Bloo, Diamond Tiara, Coloratura, and the wizards walked out of the castle and saw the citizens wearing sad faces. They turned and saw Lyra Heartstrings (The Squidcorn) sitting in a wagon.
"Lyra!" Kai said running to Lyra. "Lyra, what happened to the king?"
"That triangle took him." Lyra replied. "And without the king, we don't know who will take care of us."
Bloo and the crusaders walked up to Kai. "We can't come with you guys. It's too dangerous for us."
"But none of you are afraid of a challenge." Kai said.
"We know, but still." Scootaloo added. "This mission is only for you guys. We can't go on a mission that dangerous."
"We'll take care of everyone here until you come back with the king." Sweetie Belle said.
Kai nodded. "Okay."
Twilight turned to everyone. "We leave Bloo and the crusaders in charge."
They then started walking to the docks.
"Come back in one piece." Apple Bloom told Applejack.
Applejack held her sister's hooves. "We'll be okay."
After they arrived at the docks and got a boat, their journey came off with a devastating start.
"How do we start?" Dipper asked.
"We need you to practice your magic." Pixal answered.
"And where do we go to practice?" Dipper asked.
"On our field trip, we went to Fishtopia to practice our magic." Gumball added.
"Fishtopia?" The others asked in unison.
"That's right." Gumball said. "Fishtopia."
