This story is a sequel to LEGO Equestria Girls 3
In an alternate world where everything and everyone is made of Lego, former Shadowbolt agent Twilight Sparkle is now a member of the LEGO Team in Canterlot City and has become good friends with Sunset Shimmer and the rest of her teammates, yet she continues to suffer trauma after the Midnight Sparkle incident.
When the team is sent on their next mission, they are joined by two other LEGO Team members, Gloriosa Daisy and Timber Spruce, and it's not long before the team starts to realize they all suddenly have new magical abilities.
While Twilight, Sunset, and the rest of their friends try to figure out what exactly has been giving them this new magic, Gloriosa and Timber face their own issues against a super wealthy businessman named Filthy Rich. The team and the brother-sister duo try their best to work together, but some of them can only be pushed so far before they reach a breaking point.
Already looking good. Poor Twilight, from a terrible nightmare to a rude awakening. It's gonna be one of those days.
Hey, I always appreciate learning about these LEGO products and franchises that I would've otherwise never have found out about it.
whoa it great reading these cool stories and meeting real fan of both mlp and lego fandoms please keep it up
Did Twilight ever reunite with Shining Armor?
I'm pleasantly surprised by how well-received the start of this latest story has been, this week. Not only am I seeing some new people getting interested in the whole series, but also this story actually appeared on the "popular stories" list for a day or two. After how many initial dislikes the second story got and how little reaction there was to the third story, I was really not expecting this all.
Not a lot of comments here, but I'm glad to see people are still eager to see more to this series. Kinda makes me feel bad that I simply can't go any faster than my same old schedule of one chapter every two weeks (especially difficult given how slow I seem to be going on these first few chapters, forcing me to set aside even more time than I'd like to). But like the last few stories, I do intend to get this one done in an approximately similar time frame as the previous stories.
7928389 Well, I'm glad you appreciate every minor reference I can manage to fit into my stories. In some cases, I find myself needing to do a bit of research to make sure that some of the more obscure references I'm making are at least somewhat accurate. The next few chapters will be a good example of that.
7932432 To avoid too much spoilers, my answer to that for now is simply, no, not yet.
7938205 The Lego Batman movie came out recently.
Loving this so far! Though I wonder what will happen when things inevitably go "boom"
7938807 7938205 I saw it, and it was awesome.
I'm not going to give too much away, but I think Lego!Batman's character arc would mesh well with Twilight's. To be honest, I think The Lego Batman Movie handled Batman's character arc WAY better than how Legend of Everfree handled Twilight's. Though, I might be just biased because I found Legend of Everfree disappointing and depressing.
By the way, are you going to be leaving the shipping in?
I don't mean to offend the people who love the new ship, but I don't like it. I don't know why, but I didn't find it as endearing as, well, the ship in the first and second Equestria Girls movies. However, I do understand that this is your story, and you already have ideas for how it's going to go. Besides, all your other works have been entertaining and well-written, so I am willing to trust whatever decision you make regarding this one.
Figures that Lego Trixie is arrogant she sees nothing wrong with telling her plans to anyone she meets.
Is Trixie being particularly obnoxious this time, or is she just going to play a Game Of Bones with the Lego squad?
Hmm. Twilight seems less depressed and guilt-ridden and more trusting than in the movie. What a relief! Thank you so much.
finally get to see Trixie step up as a main villain :D
7963895 I honestly don't know what you mean by that analogy.
I guess you'll just have to wait and see what happens.
7964037
I'm actually a little confused by why you might think that. I mean, she almost tried to ditch the team right before starting her first mission with them, just because it would be in the Castle Region! I guess maybe Twilight's remarks about letting Spike join the team for the mission or perhaps her pride in some of her inventions might give you the impression that her feelings aren't so bad, but I will say that my intent is to reflect what we saw in the movie without seeming too out of place for the setting of this story.
7976072 In the movie, when Sunset caught her trying to run, she just kept running. Here, she actually lets the team talk her into staying. Although, now that I think about it, what I may have misinterpreted as Twilight being less guilt-ridden might have just been the rest of the team being more understanding and aware of her issues.
it's very good.
The movie itself had enough going on, just how much more complex, confusing and hilarious can throwing in Minifigs In Tights and Trixie etc will things get?
So how much of a role is Trixie going to play in this?
Have you ever played Lego City Undercover? In my opinion, it was probably the best lego game ever!
I'm sure you could use elements of it for any future installment's in this series and it's exetremely hilarious!
8002079 Well, Chase McCain may appear in my spin-off story ;)
I guess I'm fine with it as long as it's subtle.
I still don't like the ship, but I guess that's just me failing to see what other girls find so attractive about guys like Timber. 
Then again, I'm pretty sure people who aren't me fail to see what I find so likable about Flash. 
8001875 Quite a bit more, considering I have yet to mention what Filthy Rich will be up to in this story, among other things.
8001945 Much like the earlier stories, she won't be the ultimate bad guy of this one (I'm sure you can guess who that will really be), but there will come a moment that shows she not evil just for the sake of being evil.
8002079 Much like Lego Dimensions, that is a game I'd love to play, but could never get a chance simply because I don't own the proper gaming system (although now that it's being released on other platforms, including PC, I'm glad that'll soon change). And just like with Dimensions, I so much want to see what happens in this game that I would like to eventually find the time to find videos on YouTube showing other people playing through this game. I actually hope to be able to do that before I reach a certain point in this story, since I'll need to familiarize myself with the content in order to accurately portray a certain someone I'd like to include, even if only for a minor role.
Rich is a far more brutal buisinessman in Lego. But how does Spoiled Rich behave, better? or even worse?
so Filthy Rich will have a more active role, like what I was hoping for in the actual movie
8038402 I don't think anyone wants to know the answer to that.
I know you said that Twilight had a darker backstory in this AU, but that was "shudder".
8038402 8038526 To be honest, I had not even considered that thought for any part of this story. Perhaps I might come up with a little something when the right opportunity comes up.
8039176 With Twilight being a Shadowbolt agent in the previous story (albeit growing dissatisfied with it by that point), she needed a very good reason for why she got involved with the Shadowbolts in the first place, so it's natural to think that her earlier lifestyle must have been even less favorable for her, and why she's always so adamant about even the thought of going anywhere near the Castle Region.
You know, since Trixie is a magical sorceress here, I'm surprised it hasn't crossed Twilight's mind that perhaps something Trixie did is responsible for her friends powers. There could be some leftover magic from something Trixie attempted to do before the LEGO Team arrived. Obviously that's not the case, but considering Twilight doesn't know that yet the Trixie theory is something she should be thinking of as an alternative explanation.
I like this. I like this a lot.
I would think that skeletons and most other opponants would have far more trouble with trees than Applejack, and its difficult to fight when invisibly fast Dash can rush by and steal your sword, shield, helmet and belt holding your pants up before you even blink.
And then Dash goes back round and delivers everyone a complimentary highly unstable cupcake.
8071402 To be honest, that thought had never really occurred to me. I suppose we could say that Twilight is still so traumatized from what happened to her that she finds it hard to believe that anyone besides Midnight Sparkle could unleash so much magical power.
8072067 I have to say, that one about stealing someone's belt gave me a good laugh.
While I'm afraid I can't see how I can include that particular one, you can be sure to expect plenty of gags and other funny moments, once the team finally gets to confront Trixie.
I think Twilight needs to study common tropes a little more. Of course that was going to work.
Twilight being bad at comedy! Hilarious!
A lot of the humor of that situation came from Sunset's reactions. 
Also, Sunset kicking serious butt really takes the cake. 
Sunset, how could you be so careless with that torch? Don't you remember Smokey The Bear's advice: Only you can prevent wildfires.
Before I forget, I love all the humor and action that you added to this scene. It significantly lightened up what I felt was a rather depressing movie.
:Kryten:Excuse me, Sir. May I distract you for just a moment?:Kryten:
Its gonna be a hot time in the camp tonight.
At least they know Trixies forces are there now.
8102241 I would argue that Twilight was aware of it, but didn't think that the trolls would be so stupid as to actually fall for it, especially by literally calling it a "distraction".
8103374 Lego is famous for its quirky humor, so a Lego adaption of anything (Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, DC Comics, Marvel Comics, and in the case of this fanfiction, Equestria Girls) is practically guaranteed to be a more humorous take on the original subject.
this is why Trixie won't be showing up in my story and why I'm focusing more on licensed Lego characters
Good thing Sunset opted to keep her sanity intact here. In Legend of Everfree, she looked like she was scared for life after just one peek.
This is why we can't have anything nice.
So, Trixie just gave up because Sunset's heart to heart talk with her made her realize that all the effort she was putting into getting the new magic was way too much work? How does that even make sense?
Also, yay, Gandalf!Spike.
Trixie is a stage magician, master of illusion and distraction. Why use effort to get something now, when with a bit of misdirection not only can you achieve results far easier, but get your opponant to do all the work for you.
Trixie wants to find this new magic? The girls have new magic. Let the girls think theyve won, and when they relax theyll head back, hopefully to check in with their sources.
8133718 I guess I didn't quite put as much detail in that scene as I should have. One of the reasons Trixie decided to give up was because she had just been completely humiliated by Sunset literally looking into her mind and sharing her secret past with everyone in the area. The new magical abilities of the others really annoyed her, but adding in Sunset's mind reading powers was just too much for her to handle. So basically, Trixie will need to take some time off to calm her nerves before making her next move (which, as she said, could be anything good or bad).
8135001 That's an interesting way to look at this, but as I just mentioned, Trixie's role in this story is over, so you may not get your answer until another story later on. At this point, it's time for the team to move on to other matters. (Keep in mind, there's still the question of what Filthy Rich is up to, and also note that Gloriosa and Timber aren't just tagging along with the rest of the team but will have their own roles in this story.)
I think it's a good thing Sunset lost her mind reading powers when she did, there are things in the mind that people prefer to keep secret. Plus, we all know what Pinkie's mind is like:
wait, there are two moons? Need to know before I write a crucial part of my story
At least we can expect AJ to find her own diamond now, though a race between Dash and Fillisecond might be a little hard to follow.
Reminds me, I have seen a design somewhere for something that can be modified for Ludicrous Speed treadmill, or at least most definitely supersonic, just going hypersonic. Super advanced materials in a flat circular band, all magnetically supported with forced airflow to turn drag to drive. Even the basic bullet train drive can reach half Mach. buut, this is already over. Maybe Lunas next attempt. 
I thnk Pinkie should head for a camping supplies shop to stock up on Kendal Mint Cake. because nothing says Knock Knock more than ultra condensed carbohydrate undergoing sub conversion.
For Rarity, they shouldve used Miniguns and watermelon, or ping pong balls and air guns to give her targeting and response work out? Thoough diamond shard in teh barrel would cause a mess and be quick and easy for her.
It would be a bit OP if Pinkie could work with the Magic Gem dust as well, but with it being Magic, it releases far more power than mere sugar.
8165862 I think the alien creature is from a different planet than the main LEGO world.
This is why we can't have anything nice.
I really wonder why this story suddenly got some dislikes.
Whatever it is some people don't like about this story, then please at least comment on it. I can't make improvements if nobody tells me what exactly they don't like.
8165862 I thought I made it pretty clear in how everything was described. (Perhaps you need to do a better job of paying attention to the details.) The Lego World as we've seen is similar to our Earth; same sun, same moon, same group of planets (Twilight had even once mention that one of her many Shadowbolt hideouts was on Mars... before it was discovered by some Martians). Anyway, in that scene, they're trying to figure out which alien planet the mystery beast came from (and in all honesty, I seriously doubt it'll ever be mentioned again in this series). The researchers even said there were over forty planets in the galaxy that have two suns and two moons. That's why I'm particularly fond of the Space Region; endless possibilities in an explorable universe.
Not really suprised that EG and similar Spike goes with Fluttershy. After all, she is the one that treats him as an equal as best she can, where Rarity treats him equally as below her as everyone else?
Timber forgot the rules of ducts. Dont sneeze, Dont lean against the grate. Dont stop in a suspended trunking.
Thats gonna be a slap heard around the world.
Watch yourself, Filthy Rich. You can only push the limits so much before you break them. If you keep trying to test your luck, one of these days you'll go too far.
will we possibly see Natalia as well? She could be an informant ;)
