However, when an ancient Equestrian force is accidentally summoned, things take a turn for the worst and the mane 7 must find out how to defeat this mysterious threat and save their fellow students from his wrath.

Sorry about that
I had very little time to wrap up the story so I did have to rush the last few chapters
I'm considering doing some extensive rewrites at some point In the near future
If you have any suggestions for ways to extend it, I'd be more than happy to hear them
Thanks for the feedback

Cute costume ideas though I would of done more with Twilight's costume like have her dress up as nightmare moon to show she truly was over that phase of her life (but then again that's just what I would of done. Still good). I loved applebloom's costume the most. Also I feel the flash part was really random and came out of nowhere but it was okay and nice bit of mystery there at the end. It was an okay chapter overall.

That argument was a bit weird and had no ground for starters, but like the background of the villian. Also I see twilly is paired up with gloriosa, I hope there's awkward conversations ahead.

I'm considering a rewrite in the near future so maybe I can give the arguement more ground or replace it with something better (open to suggestions)

Your twilight costume idea is pretty good, in fact somebody actually pulled off something similar in the fanfiction 'you call that a costume?' which I'd recommend checking out
Also, your criticisms on Flash's introduction are valid. Honestly, I was just trying to get him involved in the story
I'll see how it could be improved at some point
Hope you enjoy the story and your feedback is always appreciated

That was a really good story, and I will be glad to read another one like that.
P.S: Kitharium is the most interesting villain I have seen in a long time, even outside the fanfiction media.

ISWYDT!

You know if Vice-Principle was secretly the heir of a race of nightmare eating demons I'm certain she'd be immune to the whole mind control thing and would reveal that right here

“You think you can stop me! Fools! I'm every nightmare you've ever had! Your worst dream come true! I am everything you ever were afraid of!"

while in her demon form say "Then you shall prove little challenge for one who feasts upon nightmares and for what you've done to my sister and students you shall face the wrath of The Heir to Nightmare Throne!" and then proceed to thoroughly pulverize Kirtharium with girls cheering her on.

But if my Bionicle OC was there he'd also appear in that scene starting by strangling Kirtharium with his own tendrils or a blasting him with electricity in his true form (but not its height) holding a sword and saying "Then perhaps I, Makuta Kratus Lord and Master of Shadow shall prove a greater challenge." alt "Fear? *chuckle* you know nothing of fear for have you had an entire nation cower before your might while your name causes it to tremble or have poem warning those who walk the path of evil mentioning now have you? No, I thought not and let me tell you this worm for by dawn you shall know true fear if you still exist that is."

“Why is it when something strange happens, it’s always you seven?” Principal Celestia sarcastically sighed, with Vice-Principal Luna following close behind.

“Well I’ll say, you've certainly done a great job!" laughed Applejack, “I’ll have Big Mac drop off the toffee apples and the one's for apple bobbin' later tonight before the party!".

party!"*

“Okie Dokie!” Pinkie beamed, her mouth-watering at the thought of the Apple families tasty toffee treats. “Hey, there’s some candy in that orange bowl over there if you want some?” She announced, before her and Rainbow cheekily grinned at one another as the two of them sat down on the stage. Applejack began to suspect something while Fluttershy and Sunset both shrugged at each other and curiously wandered over to the table, sighting the bowl that Pinkie had mentioned. It was bright orange, with tiny black skulls patterned onto it and many small wrapped-up chocolates inside. Sunset reached in to grab a piece but before she entered the bowl, a plastic zombie hand suddenly burst out amongst the candy, which caused the two girls to let out a fearful shriek before following it up with playful laughter. Or rather, Sunset began to giggle while Fluttershy just stood completely still, looking like she was on the verge of tears. Pinkie and Dash chortled at their successful prank, as Applejack took pity and went over to comfort their shy friend.

Huh, guess they were the ones who added that to the bowl. :applejackunsure:

“There we go Sugarcube.” she comforted, patting Fluttershy on the back, “it’s just another one of their silly pranks, it’s fake, it’s okay”. She tried best she could but Fluttershy could barely muster a whimper in reply, it was like she'd been petrified. “Honestly you two!” Applejack snapped at Rainbow and Pinkie, who were still snickering like children, “Y'all should know better, you know that Fluttershy doesn’t like this kinda stuff!”

okay." She tried the best she could*

“Oh, Princess Twilight sent it to me a few days ago.” Sunset answered, “it’s a book about old monsters and creatures from Equestrian history, she recommended I take it in case we ever run into a similar threat in our world.”

Something tells me that book will have a part in whatever is coming next. :fluttershyouch:

“Are you almost done in there darling?” Rarity called, patiently standing outside of her bathroom door dressed as Frankenstein’s Bride. She wore a ghostly-white gown, her darkest shade of black lipstick with matching nail polish, equally dark heels and had stitches painted across her chin and neck. But the best part of her already impressive costume was easily her hair. Most people would have purchased a simple wig, but Rarity decided that she wanted to go the extra mile. She first dyed it completely pitch black with snowy highlights later added in, then had curled and pinned it into the right position before rapidly spraying it with multiple cans of hairspray. It was certainly a tricky thing to pull off, but once her friends saw the final result, they could all agree it was completely worth it.

Hope she remembers to dye her hair back to purple after Halloween is over as dying hair in black can take a long time to get rid of. :applejackunsure:

“Yeah, I guess this mad scientist thing kinda suits me. you look amazing!”

me. You*

“Hmm, not bad at all” He cockily replied, admiring himself in the mirror and pretending to roar fearsomely at his reflection, which made the girls chuckle.

all," he*

“It is a pretty cool costume” Twilight admired, “I just hope I look okay in mine.”

costume,*

Fluttershy was dressed as a vampire. Her face and hands had a light-colored foundation applied to make her look as pale as a corpse. She also wore blood-red eye contacts, dark eye-shadow and the fangs Rarity had given her earlier, which now seemed less pale compared to her face. Her usual soft pink hair had been ruffled and darkened, along with a gloomy dress and a traditional ruby-red pointy vampire cape. Fluttershy had actually always wanted to dress up as a vampire, but was always too nervous in the past. While hesitant at first, she decided to go through with it this year and was actually frightened the first time she saw herself in full costume.

Some things never change. :ajsmug:

Applejack had always secretly loved pirates since she was just a little girl and, after her friends discovered this, was convinced by Sunset & Rarity to be one this year for Halloween. She wore a hickory brown tricorn pirate hat with a bright red feather attached, placed over her chaotically messy hair and the black eye-patch she'd received earlier, which felt quite awkward at first but she'd now gotten more used to. She also wore an authentic buccaneer jacket with a golden amulet necklace done up over a cut-up blue & white striped shirt, a pair dusky cavalier boots, dark leggings and a belt which carried a malleable swashbuckler sword that had been specially designed with an apple on the pommel. Applejack had been rehearsing her 'pirate voice' all evening, which the rest of the girls began to find quite annoying after the first five minutes.

a pair of dusky*

Finally, Pinkie had by far the most colorful get-up of the bunch, dressed as a comical clown. But not one of the creepily designed clowns usually seen on this night, she’d gone for straight-up goofy circus smiles. Her usually frantic hair and been condensed into a small afro under a cheerful blue bowl hat and her face had been painted completely white with baby blue rings around her eyes, candy red lipstick and the bulbous rubber nose she hadn’t taken off since receiving. Her outfit was consisting off a large hot-purple jacket with foam buttons on the front, a large violet bow tie, over-sized green pants with white polka-dots that were barley held by up by a duo of pastel orange suspenders, a plastic water-spraying sunflower attached to the jacket and a pair of giant floppy yellow clown shoes. She also carried many clown-esque items with her, such as colorful balloons, juggling balls, a unicycle and a few cream pies to possibly throw later.

held up by a duo*

The Girls slowly began to approach the front of the school and noticed the statue had been redecorated into something reminiscent of the classic headless horseman story. The schools' entrance wore giant false cobwebs on its side and bloody hand-print stickers on the windows as they walked inside.

Huh, guess the horse statue got rebuilt after al. In this story that is. :trollestia:

"Huh, that's funny." Pinkie stroked her chin, "I don't remember putting these up!" The group continued to wander the halls, in search of the gym, as Pinkie continued to notice more impressive decorations on many of the walls, doors and lockers, that she have anything to do with. While she didn't expect herself to be the only one decorating, whoever did this was almost as skilled as her.

she had anything*

“Boo!” A sudden rouge male voice appeared from within the shadows, scaring the girls and their dog before revealing himself to just be their friend Flash Sentry playing a prank. He was dressed as a werewolf, wearing a scruffy red checkered shirt, ripped denim jeans, his regular trainers, a wolf nose painted on and brown fur attached to his hands, chest and up the sides of his face. The girls all sighed when they realized who it was, as he began to approach them in a friendlier manner. “Sorry for scaring you girls like that, I just couldn't resist. you all look great!" he complimented, as the girls all thanked him.

You all look great!" He*

“Yeah, thanks! I also put up a few extra decorations around the school before you all arrived” Flash answered, “I’ve been helping Pinkie Pie out in the decorating club lately and I figured I’d surprise her with a little something.”

arrived,"*

“No problem, now let’s get this party started!” Twilight announced cheerfully, as they all went to join in the festive antics. Applejack and Rainbow instantly began competing in the apple bobbing, Rarity was showing off her costumes to all the other students before Pinkie began playing pranks on them, Twilight and Timber were flirting with each other on the dance floor while Spike kept trying to interrupt and Fluttershy & Sunset made small talk with Flash and Gloriosa. But then, the room went unexpectedly quiet when Vice Principal Luna walked up to the podium dressed as a devil. She wore a simple red spandex suit, a pair of devil horns of her head, dark-red eye-shadow and was holding a plastic pitchfork in her hand.

horns on her head,*

“Good evening students.” she grinned, “Can you please all give a warm Canterlot High welcome to Princess Celestia”. After the strange announcement, Principal Celestia was lowered from the ceiling by a stage-rope as angelic music began to play. She wore a puffy glowing pink dress and a shiny silver crown atop her head. She landed on the stage and was greeted by cheers and giggles from the students.

Celestia." After*

“Now without any further a do.” She wrapped up, “Let the party commence!”. The students all applauded as the upbeat party music returned and everybody headed towards the dance-floor. The girls all continued to chat, dance, prank and even tell a couple of spooky stories between them. Most of the students fell victim to Rainbow and Pinkie's pranks, as Pinkie had even done some undercover research into some of her fellow students' fears to further guarantee an effective scare. She discovered some unexpected results, including Snails' fear of balloons, Bulk Biceps' fear of spiders and especially Twilight's bizarre fear of quesadillas, which her friends playfully teased her about. Luckily, the pranks were met with positive feedback as everyone had a great time and the party felt like the highlight of the school term.

commence!"*

The children he was being currently was being visited were none other than the CMC, who were known tonight as the Canterlot Monster Club despite the fact none of them were actually dressed as monsters. Apple Bloom was dressed as a scarecrow. She wore a tatty striped shirt, patch covered ripped denim jeans, a straw hat and had stitches painted on her mouth and cheeks. Sweetie Belle was a fairy. She wore a parakeet green dress, matching heels, with glittery patterns painted up her face and a handmaid pair of wings that her sister had made from scratch. Finally, Scootaloo was embarrassingly dressed as a chicken. She wore a furry white spandex suit, a white cap with a rubber chicken comb, a tale sown on and a strap-on beak that covered her nose. She didn’t like wearing this costume, but her friends had tricked her into it. She did start to feel better as the night progressed, since they were having so much fun, and she knew she’d somehow get them back next year.

The children currently visiting were*

“I…I..I Can’t Move!” Apple Bloom screamed as there was flash of lighting and a mysterious thin figure appeared in front of her. His skin was shadow grey with pitch black and blood-red eyes, jagged teeth, long seaweed -green hair that covered his face and seemed to be wearing a torn robe of sorts. His presence was simply bloodcurdling as the figure just stood in front of the girls, before slowly taking a deep lengthy breath. Finally, he looked directly at Apple Bloom and spoke. His voice was warped, low pitched, croaky, soft-spoken and had an extremely unsettling feel to every single word he uttered. “Thank you.” he said, with a threatening smile growing across his face, “I’ve been imprisoned for so many moons, It feels so good to finally be free!”.

free!"*

“Run!” Apple Bloom quietly instructed her friends, with pure fear in her eyes. Her tearful friends nodded and sprinted away to find help, as the creature grabbed hold of Apple Bloom's arm and pulled her towards him. “Now!” He whispered, “You’re a strange-looking thing, guess I’m not in Equestria anymore”. That sentence put one huge puzzle piece into place. Apple Bloom tried calling for help but before she could open her mouth, she felt her body start to change as the creature began sniffing the air. “I can smell magic here and you’re going to help me obtain it!” he grinned menacingly, before his enchantment finally took full effect. Apple Bloom was suddenly much more pail, with a dead expression across her face, her pupils shrunken and was unable to speak other than zombie-like groans.

“Hey! I’ll tell you when I’ve had enough!” Pinkie slurred as she started wandering over before tripping and falling onto Rarity, causing her to yelp as they both tipped over.

Yeah, she's had enough. :ajbemused:

Pinkie Pie quickly sat up with an oblivious grin upon her face like nothing had happened, not noticing her red rubber nose had fallen off. “Alright!” she giggled, “I’ll save any candy I collect tonight 'till tomorrow, you guys happy?". Her friends either face-palmed, chuckled or simply rolled their eyes at the response while Pinkie began to adjust herself as she felt her face and noticed something was missing. “Has anyone seen my nose?” She asked curiously. Just then, Rarity sat up dizzily and crossed her eyes to notice the large red ball had somehow become attached to her nose during impact. She started to freak out and yanked it off her face as fast as she could, causing it to land on the pavement with a small squeak.

happy?" Her*
Also, I find it strange/hilarious Rarity freaked out over that clown noise on her own. :rainbowlaugh:

"Well, It guess it's settled then" Sunset shrugged, "Let's go Trick or Treating!"

"Well, I guess it's settled then,"*

“No one’s answering the door” Pinkie whined as Applejack moved her out of the way and knocked herself, only to see they were right.

door,"*

“All will be revealed soon.” the mysterious man laughed creepily, as more of their classmates & teachers stepped out and began surrounding them under his control. They came closer and closer and closer, It was almost like the whole school had turned against them. In a panic, Rarity activated her geode and created a protective shield around her friends in the group, but this didn't seem to phase the oncoming threat. “I don't know how long I can hold them, has anybody got a plan?” Rarity questioned nervously, as her friends were either shaking their heads or too distressed to answer.

“I hope not, that means they have my sister!” Timber worried. At that moment, a couple of shadows appeared above them and frightening the group. “Thank goodness you’re okay!” one of them spoke as they revealed themselves to be Gloriosa & Flash, whom everyone then hugged out of relief.

okay!" One*

“We were just leaving the party when everyone started acting weird.” Flash assured them, “we’ve been trying to get back into the auditorium once we realized something was up, but we’ve locked ourselves and lost the keys!”.

key!"*

“It’s true, we were looking around the school for help when we found you guys” Gloriosa added “and if we can get in, we have something to show you .”

guys," Gloriosa added, "and if we get in, we have something to show you."*

"Yes Pinkie, thank you for that remark!" Sunset sighed, as she continued reading. "However, he was thwarted by none other than Starswirl the Bearded and was banished to unknown dimension, which I'm guessing is us!"

Weird how much of the stuff and people banished from Equestria ended up on earth. Which is just great. Thanks a lot Starswirl. :twilightangry2:

"I've got it!" Pinkie pitched, "We take that book, head down to Sweet Shoppe, lock all the doors, grab ourselves a milkshake and wait for all of this to blow over!"

to the Sweet Shoppe,*
Bad idea Pinkie. :duck:

“Aright!” Pinkie announced in a gruff voice, as her bowl hat was now replaced with a military cap. “We'll have Sunset & Flash in a group, Rainbow & Applejack, Twilight & Gloriosa, Timber & Fluttershy and Rarity, you’re with me!” She aggressively declared, before clearing her throat, to restore her voice to it's regular feminine tone, and munching on a leftover toffee apple as the rest of the group sat in silence.

'Alright!"*

"I guess that settles that issue." Sunset blinked, who was going to discuss the issue of teams before Pinkie's interruption took care of it. The gang quickly discussed and decided on which areas each team would explore as they all said their goodbyes, wished each-other luck and all fearfully went their separate ways. None of them were sure what awaited them, but they're were hoping this would all be resolved soon.

No turning back now. :fluttershysad:

"That's a relief!" he exhaled, "so how long are we supposed to stay here?”

relief!" He*

“As long as I want you to!” a slimy warped voice spoke as Kitharium suddenly appeared behind them, with villainous grin upon his face. Sunset screamed as she quickly struggled to open the door with Flash running up behind her and attempting to kick it down.

to!" A*

As the two of them tried to escape, Kitharium just stood there and smiled cunningly at their efforts. “You know what? I think I’m gonna have a little fun with you two lovebirds!” He grinned, as he formed a circular green puff of smoke in his hand and threw at them like a baseball. Flash and Sunset were directly hit, just as they finally manged to open the door. The two of them tumbled over and began coughing, as Kitharium laughed menacingly and faded away behind them.

“Did he call us lovebirds?”

Yes Flash. Yes he did. :ajbemused:

"Oh, they're okay." Gloriosa replied, "We've managed to repair the dock finally with the help of some of the newer campers"

"Most of them come in the summertime, we had a few school trips earlier this year that were a lot of us. The campers are usually much younger than us though, and often very energetic, but they seem to love it there and it helps gets the place some good press!"

lot on us.*

The two of them continued to talk casually about Timber, the camp, each-other and many other topics before Twilight stopped to look at a text message she had received. It was from Pinkie & Rarity, who had decided to remain in the gym to keep an eye on Trixie, but the news they delivered was not good. They had lost their magician classmate and were now in pursuit, but were unsure of her current whereabouts.

Uh oh! :twilightoops:

“It can't be! Y...You’re dead” Applejack bellowed, tears slowly beginning to swell in her eyes.

dead!"*

"C..Come..b...back?" Applejack stuttered, the offer sounding to good to be true.

too good*

"Yes Applejack, Just hand over that gem stone around your neck and we’ll be with you again. I promise! Think about Big Mac & Apple Bloom, how happy they'll be! Come on AJ, do what’s best for the family!” Bright Mac begged. Applejack gradually felt herself being won over as she discarded the bass. Rainbow could see everything that was happening as she continuously tried to warn her friend, but was now tied up entirely in almost an entire skeletons worth of bones and unable to do anything about it. Kitharium’s crooked smile grew wider as he felt Applejack draw closer into his trap. She walked within hugging distance of her parents as they reached out their hands.

Applejack, just*
Bloom, and how*
Don't do it AJ!!! :raritydespair:

“Ya'll know what? I will do what’s best for my family!” Applejack spoke boldly, as she pulled out her sword and became ready to swing like a real swashbuckler. “No, Applejack! Please don’t do this!” her parents wept, as their once-lively bodies began to quickly decompose before her. Applejack shut her eyes and called out a heroic battle cry as she charged right through their decaying forms and began heading directly towards Kitharium, who's confident smile had now left his face. She was almost about to impale him, when he quickly evaporated away which lead to Applejack to almost hitting Rainbow. Luckily, she managed to stop herself in time and put the sword away. The fog soon began to lift as Pinkie, Rarity and Flash burst through the door.

this!" Her*

“Hold on Rainbow Dash! I’ll get you out!” Applejack proclaimed, as she redrew her weapon and started to cut through the rock-hard bones. Once they were loose, Rainbow wriggled her way out of the carcass and manged to finally remove Kitharium’s hand from her face. The body part mysteriously vanished after Dash tossed it aside, as she began to hyperventilate, almost like she had been suffocating.

Creepy. :applecry:

“I did” Rainbow cringed, “wait Flash, aren’t you supposed to be with Sunset?”

did."*

Fluttershy & Timber carefully snuck around the school’s soccer pitch. The field almost had an abandoned feel to it, especially in the glowing moonlight of the night sky. Fluttershy was constantly shaking with fear as she walked along the area, jumping at every sound she heard which more often than not were just her own footsteps or the snapping of a twig. Timber was better at hiding his nerves behind a confident demeanor, as he repeatedly tried calming her down but would unfortunately only end up startling her more. They soon made their way over to the bleachers, which were covered almost entirely in fallen leaves in multiple shades of orange, when Fluttershy swore that she could something or someone squeaking quietly.

could hear something*

“Hello?” she called softly, as she stepped down the stairs and checked underneath the bleachers, where she found the source was a small ginger kitten. The cat was trembling from head to toe and barley able to muster anything but a minor squeal. Fluttershy eyes began to water up as she tried approaching the feline, who she could tell was as absolutely terrified. “It’s okay little kitty, I won’t hurt you!” she comforted, reaching out her hand to stroke the animal. The kitten let out a light delicate meow in return, as Fluttershy reached into a miniature pocket hidden in her costume and grabbed a bag of cat treats. “I didn’t know if I’d see any animal friends tonight, but I packed some stuff just in case” she smiled, gaining the cat’s trust as it slowly approached her. After feeding it, Fluttershy comforted the feline and recommended that it went back into hiding until things had cleared up, assuring that she would protect it. The cat nuzzled it’s head against Fluttershy’s hand as thanks and took her advise, going back under the bleachers with a much calmer attitude.

“I don’t know!” Sunset coughed and stuttered, unsure what was happening to her as she became dizzier and felt like she was about to faint. “Kitharium did something to me and Flash! Whatever that was could be...AHHHH!” Before she could finish, Sunset let out a bloodcurdling scream of agony and collapsed to the ground.

Sunset!!! :pinkiegasp:

“Well, this isn’t good” Timber gulped, watching over her bizarre feline behavior.

good!"*

“But wait a minute. she said this happened to her and Flash, right?

She said this happened to her and Flash, right?"*

“Yes but, Flash is dressed as a….Oh No!”

Having Sunset act like a cat is something, but Flash as a werewolf, that's 10 times worse!!! :fluttercry:

“Hey Flash!” Rainbow called, “are you okay?

okay?"*

“Get Away!” Flash bellowed in response as he felt himself begin to change. They began backing away as Rarity created a shield around them. Applejack drew her pirate sword and Pinkie crafted one out of her balloons. Flash began exhibiting fearsome growls, before finding himself on hunched over on all fours and breathing aggressively as the full moon shined it’s glistening light directly onto him. His pupils sharpened, along with his gritted teeth as he turned towards his friends and began to viciously growl at them. As the girls slowly started backing away, Flash was quickly distracted by the sight of the moon as he howled at the top of his lungs, just like a real werewolf would do.

Fluttershy and Timber began their way to the school library as originally planned, with Sunset wandering close behind as she became more cat like with every passing minute. They didn’t even know if Twilight & Gloriosa would still be there at this point, but Fluttershy was unable to get phone service to contact anyone else so for now, this was all they had to go on. They were hesitant to leave the science classroom at first, but they unfortunately knew they couldn’t stay there all night and were worried that Sunset may knock over and break something expensive or dangerous in her new form. The journey was mostly silent. Both Fluttershy & Timber barley spoke to each other and Sunset stayed mostly quiet with the exception of a few small meows, which led to Fluttershy having to awkwardly pet her. The biggest question on her mind was if Sunset would have any memory of her feline experience after she had been restored back to normal, if she could be restored back to normal that was.

Something tells me she might remember it. Maybe? We'll have to wait and see. :unsuresweetie:

"It's so great to see you guys too!" Fluttershy beamed, as she continued to scan the area of Sunset and puzzling how she'd explain her curious condition.

area for Sunset*

“well, not exactly.” Timber responded with an awkward chuckle.

"Well,*

Before Twilight could ask, she felt something brush against her and looked down to see Sunset standing on all fours, nuzzling at her leg and purring away while doing it. “Uh…hi Sunset?” Twilight stuttered uncomfortably, with a embarrassed blush slowly coming across her face.

Well, at least they found her. :twilightsheepish:

“Anyways, what do we do now?” Gloriosa mentioned, as the all looked at each-other in hopes someone had a plan that wasn’t just running around like headless chickens. The group began discussing possible options and even mentioning their encounters while they were all separated, but nobody seemed to any ideas. That was until Twilight recalled something.

to have any ideas.*

“Does anyone know where Sunset’s Equestrian creature book is? right now, it's all we have to understand Kitharum and Sunset isn't really in a position to read it!" She asked.

Right*

“Cool! where's that?” Pinkie cheered, before she felt something grab the straps on her suspenders as she was suddenly pulled back without warning and started screaming like a banshee.

Where's*
I think that place is behind you Pinkie!!! :twilightoops:

“PINKIE PIE!” Rainbow yelled, as she and Applejack ran quickly after her. The rest of the group followed close behind as they all rounded the corner to see Pinkie had unfortunately now been taken over, standing creepily still next to the zombie-like Trixie and even Kitharium himself. But Pinkie looked slightly different than his other minions, with her eyes being slightly wider and her mouth more tilted. Her friends were all silent, apart from Sunset hissing at Kitharium as he caressed Pinkie's cheek.

That ain't good! :raritydespair:

“We’re never gonna make it!” Fluttershy sobbed, bursting into tears as Sunset sensed her friends sadness and started nuzzling against her legs in an attempt to cheer her up. Fluttershy appreciated the notion, as she continued to pet Sunset while some of her other friends over to try and help.

friends went over*

"I don't know, but i'm scared!" Twilight regretfully answered, her eyes also beginning to water as the groans of the controlled became louder with each tear.

I'm*

“Alright! That is enough!” Rainbow aggressively announced, standing on one of the tables like she was going to make a speech. ” Those are our friends out there! Our families! And we can’t keep fleeing like gutless cowards while they’re under his control! I don’t know about the rest of you but I’m gonna stop running in fear and I’m gonna stand up to him! You hear me you freak, I’m not afraid of you!”.

"Those*
you!"*

"I've got it!" she claimed, startling the rest of the group with the sudden loudness of her voice, “they're powered by our fear, why didn't I see it before!"

"They're*

“Maybe so, but it’s the only one we’ve got! Now those are our friends out there and I’m gonna help save them, who’s with me?” Twilight stated, with a sudden burst of confidence. Though resistant at first, her friends all banded together and agreed to face the enemy head on. They searched and gathered supplies from around the room that they could use as possible weapons of defense. There wasn't much to work with, but were determined to somehow make it work.

Ngl, this scene felt like a teaser to what happens in Spring Breakdown. :ajsmug:

“Sorry about this Principal!” Applejack smirked confidently, as she pulled out her sword and swung it around vigorously, causing their controlled classmates and teachers to slowly back away. "It's workin'!" She cheered triumphantly as Dash, Timber and Fluttershy began to throw leftover canteen food at them and Twilight use telekinesis to gently push them aside. Gloriosa stood at the back of the group, all of them closely huddled together, and guided Sunset as they followed along the way. The plan was completely crazy but seemed to be working quite well, as kept it up until they manged to make their way back into the gym, where they quickly slammed the doors shut before catching their breathes.

as they kept up*

“You think you can stop me! Fools! I'm every nightmare you've ever had! Your worst dream come true! I am everything you ever were afraid of!" He bellowed, but most of the gang put on a fearless expression. Gloriosa being the exception, slowly backing away from the rest of the group as KItharium began to attack. He used the power of darkness manipulation and tendril generation to strike, but they manged to bravely fight off his attacks.

Kitharium*

“Shut up!” Gloriosa muttered, as she looked ahead to see he’d taken the form of her old ‘Gaia Everfree’ transformation.

Uh oh! :pinkiegasp:

“You’re afraid, that deep down inside, you’ll never be able to separate yourself from ME!" he screamed, now mimicking her voice from the event. Gloriosa began to cry as she kneeled to the ground in defeat. “You know” Kitharium continued, now having transformed back into himself, “I may not have been accustom to this world yet, but you humans are so interesting. Especially you Gloriosa! You’re willing to let them fail because you’re afraid you will cause them to do so! You know, It’s almost poetic!” his grin grew wider as the lights began to fade and the room grew darker. “In fact, you know what! I’ll be kind and give you some of them back!”. After he spoke those words, the lights temporally increased as her friends were released and Pinkie & Sunset were restored back to normal. Sunset slowly stood back up on two feet and hugged her friends as Pinkie bounced over and did the same.

"You know?"*
world, but yet you humans*
back!"*
Well, at least their friends are back to normal? :yay:

“It’s to prove I’ve already won!” Kitharium laughed, as the room went black again, "It doesn't matter how many of your friends aren't under my control, they will never defeat me because you’re holding them back and you know it!”. The darkness kept closing in on her and her friends voices became harder to hear as Kitharium felt he could practically taste his victory. "Just say it, your afraid!" he exhaled creepily.

it!"*

Then suddenly, images began flashing through Gloriosa's mind. Images of her with her brother and some of her with the group. She recalled her memories of that previous summer, Timber humorously falling into the lake while they were playing with some of the new campers. She remembered some of the times she spent with her friends from Canterlot high. Helping Pinkie bake the cake for the benefit concert, Fluttershy introducing her to some of the Forrest critters or even crashing one of Twilight's date with her brother. These memories were all so happy. Gloriosa wiped away her tears and stood up self-assuredly towards him, she knew what she had to do. “You know what? I’m not afraid!” she proclaimed, “You can play to my fears as much as you like, but I know deep down that they’re are my friends and they will stand by me! They will help me! They can defeat you!” as she finished her speech, a strange glow began to shine around her as the room began to light up. Her friends were now visible as they began to do the same.

High*
that they're my friends*
That a girl Gloriosa! :pinkiehappy:

“Don’t you see it?” Gloriosa smiled confidently, “I do”

do!"*

“It’s the magic of friendship!” the eight girls declared simultaneously, as a blinding light emitted of them and completely lit up the room. Kitharium’s fearful screams could be heard as his darkness completely faded and he was gone. The girls all slowly drifted back towards the ground as they looked around to see the enchantments had been lifted as Flash, Trixie & Dj-Pon3 stood there confused and the groans from outside the door sounded more like confused mutters.

emitted from them*
So long Kitharium. :rainbowdetermined2:

“Yeah, we did!” Twilight laughed, “but don’t worry, I’m guessing by the noise out there that it’s only the nine of us who’ll remember”.

remember."*

“You were pretty adorable if that helps” Fluttershy complimented.

helps,"*

“Shh.. it’s okay, it’s all over now” Applejack comforted her sister, while Rarity offered to fix their costumes and Dash even claimed Scootaloo was pretty intimidating, which of course made her feel better.

now,"*

“Why is it when something strange happens, it’s always you seven?” Principal Celestia sarcastically sighed, with Vice-Principal Luna following close behind.

Who knows? :moustache:

The party then continued into the almost the early hours of the morning. Most of the students still felt strange but were able to enjoy themselves regardless. One person who was having more fun than before was definitely Gloriosa. She was dancing without a care in the world, getting competitive in the apple bobbing and was uncontrollably laughing after all of the pranks Pinkie pulled on her, even managing to prank her a couple times too. Twilight and Sunset were particularly happy for her, relating to her previous struggles and seeing the positive atmosphere she had now submerged herself in. Twilight was the first of the group to leave the party as it was getting very late and she needed to check up on Spike. As she said her goodbyes, she fell victim to another hand buzzer prank from Pinkie and gave Timber a quick kiss. She also decided to have a quick one to one conversation with Gloriosa before going.

almost early hours*

“Thank you so much for inviting me” Gloroisa smiled, “This been the most fun I've had in years, you’re such a great friend!”

me!"*

Aside from many mistakes, sentences needed to be improved and commas added, I really enjoyed this story. :scootangel:

“Yarr! Come on matey’s, we be missin' that party!” Applejack spoke in a gruff deep voice, receiving slightly irritated looks from her friends in return. “Sorry, I got to stop doin’ that.” She awkwardly chuckled in her normal country-girl voice as they all approached the gym. The room glowed like when they opened the doors as DJ Pon-3, whom was dressed as a mime to suit her usual silent antics, was blasting her tunes on the dance-floor. The room was filled with various costumes from all the students, from witches to skeletons to classic horror movie icons. One student even came dressed as a pony, which both delighted and disturbed Sunset. The food table was filled with toffee apples, cakes, candy bars, Halloween-themed punch, pumpkin spiced cookies, eyeball looking lollipops and tubs for games of apple bobbing were also scattered around the hall. The Girls and their dog all stood in the doorway, completely speechless at the wondrous sight.

Vinyl as a mime is just adorable and perfect!

Poor Vinyl got screwed here like the others, but I'm glad she returned to normal...
