So, afterwards, I decided to get some fresh air because the dirty air inside of the Enterprise was getting to my brain and causing me to start talking to myself. I got outside and found the morning air to be cool and there was a layer of very dense fog around the ship. I spotted Sulu sitting under a pop-up tent near a bunch of apple trees. I went over to where he was and found him monitoring the fluctuation of the warp core energy; searching for magnetic differences that show a certain pony is taking said energy.
"So, have any of those ponies taken the Enterprise's power?" I ask him.
"No. Not yet. There's not really anything to do so, would you like to hear one of my fencing stories?" Sulu replied.
I shrugged. There really wasn't anything much we could do until Scotty got Dilithium crystals. This planet didn't have any crystals so, the only thing to do was go to the Endurance's warp core to retrieve them. Checkhov did that so, nothing to do there. So, Sulu's fencing stories it was.
"Sure." I replied.
So, he began to weave a story about one time when he and his friend Kim Chi were fighting without masks when the tip of Kim's epee got shoved up his nose. He seemed to think it was mighty hilarious. My opinion?
That was the most idiotic story ever told in the history of mankind.
So, after he finishes his storytime, I get up and decide to walk to this litle town over the crest of this hill called Ponyville.
When I get there, the town seems quiet except for a few ponies all walking in the same direction, most likely towards the town square so, I grab my Tricorder off my toolbelt and follow them to the it. I find Kirk near the back of the crowd so, I go stand by him and say,
"I haven't seen Celestia since you were in the conference room. Also, I noticed something."
"What is it, Bones?" He replied.
"The sun is moving backwards. It seems to be getting darker."
Up on stage, a mare who looks to be town mayor says,
"In just a few moments, our town will witness the magic of the sunrise, and celebrate this, the longest day of the year! And now, it is my great honor to introduce to you the ruler of our land, the very pony who gives us the sun and the moon each and every day, the good, the wise, the bringer of harmony to all of Equestria... ...Princess Celestia!"
The pony that appeared on stage was definitely not Princess Celestia. Kirk pulled out his Phaser as the pony said,
"Oh, my beloved subjects. It's been so long since I've seen your precious little sun-loving faces. Why, am I not royal enough for you? Don't you know who I am? Does my crown no longer count now that I have been imprisoned for a thousand years? Did you not recall the legend? Did you not see the signs? Remember this day, little ponies, for it was your last. From this moment forth, the night will last forever!"
Then, she teleports away to God knows where.
Kirk looks at me and says,
"I think we may have just found Nightmare Moon."
"I just met her and I already don't like her."
So, we went back to the Enterprise and went to the bridge. That's when Kirk's communicator lit up. He flipped it open and said,
"What is it, Scotty?"
"You are never going to believe this, Captain." Scotty replied.
"What am I never going to believe?"
"Wait for it... wait for it..." That's when the power turned back on and the Bussard Ramscoops began pushing air into the Lexington Airscoops and began fueling the warp core.
"Way to go, Scotty, I knew you could do it!"
"Thank you, Captain."
So, with the power back on, we got the crew back to the Enterprise and lifted off. Now that phase two of Celestia and Kirk's plan had been dealt with, on to phase three, defeating Nightmare Moon. (Let's also just not talk about what happened in phase one.) So, we rose over Ponyville, dropping clods of dirt like an old World War 2 bomber, and flew off towards Canterlot. Upon arriving, we stopped and watched as ponies began walking towards the edge to catch a glimpse of the infamous Enterprise. That's when Sulu blurted out,
"Proximity alert, sir. Unknown vessel heading straight for us."
"I don't see anything, Mr. Sulu." Jim replied.
"Well, the ship says its there because the Equestrians put something on our sensor dish that can detect something beyond the visible spectrum."
"Like a Klingon cloaking device?"
A Klingon D-7 class battlecruiser appeared on the viewscreen.
"Precisely, Captain."
"Hail them, Uhura."
"Aye-aye, Captain. Opening hailing frequencies, now." Uhura said.
Nightmare moon appears on the viewscreen and says,
"Hello, James T., Nice to meet you again; I hope you die."
"I hope you do, too. So, I won't have to look at your ugly face."
Nightmare Moon gasped along with the rest of the bridge crew.
Insulting an enemy? That's not something you should do, even to somebody who has taken away your ruler for the time being. I looked at where the Battlecruiser was on Spock's visual and saw that it wasn't over canterlot so, i suggested to Jim that we should destroy it now. He looked at Uhura and said,
"Cut transmission."
Nightmare moon popped off screen and Kirk said,
"Sulu, Fire everything we've got."
Phaser banks opened up along with Photon and Long-Range torpedoes. As the D-7 blew up, the bridge crew cheered and then the cheering stopped abruptly as Scotty came over the intercom almost yelling,
"SHE'S ON BOARD, CAPTAIN!!!!!!!!!
So, Kirk, Spock and I went to the engineering hull and found Nightmare Moon feeding off of the warp core's power. A redshirt tried to stop her but got impaled by her horn, killing him. Kirk and Spock ran up to her and tried to stop her but, got pinned down in the process.
Knowing I had to violate my Hippocratic Oath to do anything, I decided that with all the stuff happening in the past 6 years, My wife dumping me, Vulcan getting destroyed, Kahn destroying Starfleet Headquarters, me saving Kirk's life, us getting a new ship and crashing it on this planet, I decided at that moment that some rules are meant to be broken to save your friends. I frantically searched for something to throw at her and I found a pipe so, i stepped into her line of vision and threw it. She caught it in her magic and threw it away like it was nothing.
"You know, McCoy, I really liked you. You were the nice one. Now, I'm going to have to kill you." She said as her horn dropped down into a jousting position. "Are you ready to die?"
I shook my head.
"Damn shame." She said as she started galloping towards me.
I saw Kirk slide a phaser towards me and i bent down and picked it up. Upon doing so, I pointed it at Nightmare Moon and fire a burst of stun shots. They hit her, knocking her out int the process. Even before she hit the ground, she had turned into another pony. This time, an blue alicorn with light blue hair.
By the ime she woke up, we had already taken her down to Canterlot and returned Celestia there also.
I went to bed that night knowing I had done something right.
