Episode 3: A Flurry of Emotion

Inside the Castle of Friendship, Twilight and her family were walking down the hallway. They were all discussing and chatting about their today's plans.

"You all know the assignment today?" Twilight asked amusingly.

Nyx saluted proudly and happily, "We sure do, mummy! And we are ready!"

Shadow Dragon smirked amusingly, "You both seem excited..."

"You'd better believe it, Shadow," Twilight said happily, "Everypony in the hospital is so excited for our visit today. I'm never too busy to visit sick foals."

"That's cool of you. My mom did the same thing when she was alive," Lance said calmly before showing concern looks, "I just can't believe a whole class just came down with the horsey hives!"

"Yeah. I'd never forget of what happen from that day," Nyx hissed in concern as she recalled about her classmates gotten horsey hives during the school picture day. She sighed in relief, "But more luckily that me and CMC are safe from getting it."

Twilight nodded, "Yeah. I hated to imagine to see you in hospital bed, Nyxie."

"Well, either way, we should get something to cheer up those kids ," Lance said amusingly.

Twilight smiled, "My thoughts exactly, Lance. We'll bring snacks, I'll read to them, and get them gifts!"

"Food and presents always cheer me up." Spike added happily.

"He's right about that one," Lance and Nyx said in agreement.

"All of us will do our best," Shadow Dragon said calmly, making three young ones smiled happily. He turned to Twilight, "So, what's the schedule we need to do today?"

Twilight cleared her throat. Spike looked at the scroll, "Okay, if we want to be at the hospital by lunch, then we have three hours to buy get-well presents, borrow a book from the schoolhouse," He sighed in annoyance, "and pick up treats."

Lance whistled in concern, "That's a whole lot of them..."

"Don't worry, Lance," Twilight said calmly, "As long we stick to the schedule, I know we can get it all done."

Shadow Dragon chuckled a bit, "Well, hopefully, nothing else added to our list."

KNOCKED!Twilight and her family looked surprise and shock. They turned to the door again. As they opened it, they found two familiar yet exhausted and messy ponies appeared while holding four-wheeled baby cradle. They all smiled happily while the baby giggled.

"Surprise!" Shining Armor exclaimed.

Twilight gasped in surprise, "Oh, my gosh!" She hopped to the front of them. She gave a gentle nuzzle on her baby niece's face, "How's my favorite niece?"

Nyx squealed happily as she stood up and looked at Flurry, "I'm so happy to see you again, Flurry! Remember me?" Flurry giggled happily as the baby hugged her face. She giggled as she grabbed and held Flurry up, "Yes, you do! I'm your favorite cousin!"

Nyx then gave Flurry a comfort and passionate hug, making the baby giggled happily and hugged her back. Twilight couldn't help but giggle a bit of seeing how close her daughter and niece are, reminded of herself and her brother.

Shining Armor then mimicked as Flurry, "'I'm good! I was hoping my favowite aunt and Nyxie could watch me for a few houwrs.'"

Shadow Dragon laughed amusingly, "If you want to be a baby, all you need to do is ask. I'll ask my father to prepare the potion for you to become a baby."

Annoyed by a joke, Shining Armor groaned while gave a whack on Shadow Dragon's head, "Shut up, punk!"

Shadow Dragon groaned and grumbled in annoyance, making Twilight giggled at her boyfriend's silliness and grumpy.

"Hope you're not too busy." Princess Cadance asked hopefully.

And just Spike could say anything, Twilight spoke up, "Busy?" She scoffed proudly, "Would the best aunt ever be too busy to spend time with this adorable little one?"

Shining Armor, Princess Cadance, Flurry and Nyx smiled widely and hopefully. Spike shown his concern and uneasy looks while showing the document scroll. Shadow Dragon and Lance remained silent while watching the event.

"No!" Twilight said proudly.

Lance whistled, "Oh boy. It's gonna get ugly, doesn't it?"

Shadow Dragon sighed while shaking his head, "Eeyup. It is."

Twilight levitated Flurry Heart as she gave her baby niece a multiple kisses by head and face. The lavender Alicorn proceed of blew a raspberry on the baby's belly. Flurry giggled and laughed happily of her aunt's kisses.

"Hey, Flurry! We've got a surprise for you!" Nyx cheered happily.

Flurry looked surprise as she turned to her aunt, Twilight giggled and nodded, "That's right. And it's just for you!"

Levitated and put Flurry on her back, Twilight and Nyx headed off to the storeroom. Twilight passed her niece to her daughter to hold and look after. She opened the door before levitating and putting a few of presents before them.

"Just a couple of toys that reminded me of Flurry." Twilight said amusingly. She giggled happily before looked at her family, "I'm excited to show you I've done some shopping for Flurry Heart."

Princess Cadance giggled, "Oh-ho-ho, you're so sweet. You didn't have to do all that."

Twilight blushed yet smiled happily, "I know, but I can't help myself! Best aunt ever!"

Flurry looked through some presents to see which one to open. She came across to a polka dots present. She opened it and found pink and blue teddy bear. She awed in surprise. She picked a blue one before faced to her aunt and cousin. She make a growl noise before giggled happily.

"Woohoo! Nice one, Flurry! You guess it right! They're bears!" Nyx cheered happily, "Wanna play?"

Flurry giggled and nodded happily. Both Flurry and Nyx began playing their teddy bear dolls happily and proudly. Twilight giggled happily as she joined the fun by taking the bears away while letting them both to chase after her around the foyer.

The rest of Twilight's family laughed amusingly and happily to see Twilight and Nyx playing happily with Flurry.

"We'll just put Flurry's things over here, Twily!" Shining Armor called. Twilight nodded happily before returned to play with the children. He turned to his wife, "Cadance, why don't you handle the instruction while-" He grabbed and held Shadow Dragon close to him, "-me and Shadow are gonna have stallion chats."

Shadow Dragon groaned in annoyance, "Why am I not surprise?"

Twilight and Nyx were busy playing with Flurry over getting teddy bears back. Spike and Lance listened to Princess Cadance's instruction, while getting both a few diapers and couple bottles of mash peas from her.

Shining Armor dragged and moved Shadow Dragon to the corner for their private chat. Twilight's older brother gave his intimidating looks to her boyfriend, who was annoyed and irritated by it.

"What is it? What warning are you giving me now?" Shadow Dragon asked in annoyance.

Shining Armor snorted in annoyance, "Alright, Mr. High and Mighty. You'd better listen carefully. This is the only warning you're gonna get from me."

Shadow Dragon sighed, "No funny business or hurting Twilight. I get it."

"No, Shadow Dragon," Shining Armor snarled as he gave a glare and leaned close to Shadow Dragon, who gotten frightened by him. He continued, "It's Flurry Heart. You'd better take good care of my daughter. And if I found out she cried or get hurt, I'm coming after you! Understand?!"

Shadow Dragon gulped and nodded, "Loud and clear..."

"Good..." Shining Armor said in relax before added, "And yes, no funny business or hurting my sister too especially your 'usual date'!"

Shadow Dragon scoffed, "Nail it..."

Finishing their conversation, Shining Armor and Shadow Dragon returned to the group. Princess Cadance gave the snail doll-like to Spike and Lance.

"This is the most important thing of all – her Whammy." Princess Cadance explained

"I take it Flurry named it?" Spike asked amusingly.

Princess Cadance nodded, "Yup. If she gets fussy, just give her the Whammy and she'll calm right down." She looked at Twilight and Shadow Dragon, "I just hope you all get the attention."

"If they don't, we'll take care of it," Lance said proudly.

Princess Cadance smiled, "Oh, Lance... Thank you... You're just like your mother."

Twilight, Nyx and Flurry have finished their game. Three of them returned to the group. Nyx was having Flurry on her back while holding teddy bears. The baby was playing her toys happily.

"Where are you guys headed, anyway?" Twilight asked.

"You remember my friend from the royal guard, Spearhead?" Shining Armor asked. Twilight and her family looked confuse and uncertain before shrugged. He smiled, "Well, he has a pop-up art show at the Ponyville Cafe, and we decided to go at the last minute."

"We're not exactly art enthusiasts, but we could really use a day out." Princess Cadance added before sighed while looking at Twilight and her family, "Are you sure you can watch her?"

And just before Twilight and Nyx could respond, Spike cleared his throat while showing the scroll to them while Shadow Dragon and Lance nodded in agreement about it. Both mother and her daughter sighed in disappointment. Shadow Dragon noticed their looks before he sighed.

"I'm pretty sure we can handle it," Shadow Dragon reassured.

"Shadow Dragon..." Twilight said in surprise yet relief. She smiled to Shining Armor and Princess Cadance, "Have no fear! The best aunt ever has everything under control!"

Nyx giggled as she held Flurry Heart close to her, "And don't forget her favorite cousin too!"

Princess Cadance and Shining Armor couldn't help but feel relief to hear the news. The princess levitated her daughter close to them. They gave her a kiss by cheeks. Flurry giggled happily before flew off towards Nyx as both of them were playing around happily.

"Thanks again, Twily." Shining Armor thanked. He turned and glared at Shadow Dragon, "Don't mess this up..."

Shadow Dragon nodded nervously. Shining Armor and Princess Cadance turned and headed off for their day off. He gave the funny face while blew a raspberry at Shining Armor. Twilight, annoyed, gave her boyfriend a nudge from fooling around.

"Alright, then. Let's get going," Spike said happily.

Lance nodded, "Yeah. We wouldn't want our 'mom' to get panic and pressure again when it comes to her schedule..."

"Very funny..." Twilight said amusingly. And just before she and her family could move out, they heard something growling. They looked down and found Flurry held her stomach before looked at her. She sighed, "I just have to feed her real quick."

Twilight levitated the mash pea bottle and a spoon. She scoop it up before putting the spoon of mash pea close to Flurry's mouth. Unfortunately, the baby stubbornly refuse to eat it. And just before Twilight could do anything, Flurry levitated and fired the mash pea, like a catapult fired its fiery rocks, at Lance's face.

"Flurry, you have to eat it," Twilight said as she scooped another one. Flurry make a grumpy and stubborn face before shook her head. She sighed, "Flurry, please..."

"Twi. Let me try. I've done this couple of times before I met you," Shadow Dragon said confidently as he took the spoon of mash peas. He turned to Flurry. He smiled as he showed a candy, "Look what I've got..."

Flurry gasped before giggled happily, "Candy!"

Twilight gasped, "Oh no! No candy! No candy, Shadow!"

"Trust me!" Shadow Dragon snarled a bit before turned to Flurry. He smiled as he opened the candy wrapper and showed it, "Want some candy?"

Flurry giggled happily as she opened her mouth. Instead of receiving her candy, she surprisingly got mash peas inside her mouth. She, annoyed and upset, chewing her food before swallowing it up. Twilight and her family were surprise by his trick.

"Wow... You got her to eat it," Nyx commented.

"Told you to trust me," Shadow Dragon said amusingly, "I've got experience of taking care of babies and children especially Trixie."

Twilight sighed, "Of course, smart-alerk. But anyway, let's finish feeding the baby and headed out."

Shadow Dragon nodded as he turned and looked at Flurry, who was upset and angry about being tricked and not getting her candy. Nevertheless, he gave an innocent smile while showing the candy. The baby giggled and blabbered happily as she wanted it. He, again tricked her, feeding second spoon of mash peas into her mouth. He tried third trick, however, the baby quickly levitated the spoon before fired its mash peas on his face.

Shadow Dragon was annoyed as he tried to use the same trick, which Flurry was annoyed and stubborn to fall for it. Twilight and her family sighed as they decided to help them as well.

While Twilight's family were busy feeding Flurry, they weren't aware of three familiar demons hiding inside the mouse's hole. They looked at each other before nodded in agreement. They went inside the hole before puffed in black smoke.


Deep inside the Black Forest, Demon Successors were still building and training their military army for battles and invasion. The Demon Army was trained and overseen by their lieutenants. The children of Demon Lords were making their contact with their parents, who seems displease and angered of their progress for last two years.

Demon Successors were bowing down to the ground while Eight Demon Lords' faces from the large magical portal-like mirror.

"Da Xing... I have grown impatient and infuriating with you and your cousins' progress..." Tso Lan said darkly, "And so far, the only results you have achieved so far is failure! You have not captured either a town or our enemy especially your blood sister!"

Tchang Zu snarled, "And not to mention, you still haven't found a way to secure our escape!"

Hsi Wu hissed, "Yeah! I really can't stand on this place anymore! It's frustrating here!"

"And very hungry..." Po Kong grumbled angrily, "This place barely have anymore food left for me to feast upon especially not getting salt."

Dark Xing hissed in anger as she lowered her head to the ground, "I assure you, father. We will succeed it. And we will find a way to free from your imprisonment!"

"You reassurance is nothing but repetition of your failures and disappointment to all of us, dear niece!" Shendu exclaimed in anger, "We have grew tired of it! And we have warned you not to underestimate them, and still you make same mistakes!"

Dai Gui growled, "You bring shame to us all!"

"We have more expectation from all of you," Bai Tza said darkly.

Xiao Fung hummed suspiciously, "This make us wonder about our decision to bring you all here in the first place..."

Voltscar, Song Wing, Avalanche and Quake bowed their heads to the ground in shame while Dark Xing was angered and annoyed as she looked up and glared at her family like she wanted to kill them for insulting her and her abilities. However, Drago, Gusty and Mei Kai have returned as three of them bowed before their parents and cousins.

"Where have you been, son?!" Shendu demanded in anger.

Drago snorted, "Sorry if I miss our meeting, old gecko! We were busy with our recon!"

Bai Tza hissed in annoyance, "I hope this doesn't involved of your relationship, Mei Kai. You seems to let it distracted you a lot."

Mei Kai shook her head while bowed down, "I assure you that I do no such thing. But we found an effective information that could help us."

Gusty nodded happily, "Yeah. This involved of Crystal Empire Royalty giving their little baby to Twilight and her family to look after."

Demon Lords and the rest of Demon Successors were surprise yet interested of the information Drago, Mei Kai and Gusty have uncovered. They all gave in some thoughts about it.

"Hmm... Intriguing... Perhaps there is another way..." Shendu hissed calmly, "Drinking an Alicorn's Blood could not only grant immortality but also a great power. With that power, it will help you free us from this accursed prison! I highly doubt that taking on Twilight Sparkle or Princess Cadance would be wise."

Bai Tza nodded in agreement, "Instead of them, why not go for the baby? It's an easy target."

"If possible, you should able to capture Black Yue since she too possessed Alicorn's Magic as well." Tso Lan said calmly and firmly, "Do not disappoint me again, Da Xing. Do you understand?"

Dark Xing bowed before her father, "Yes, father. It will be done. We will not fail you again..." She turned to her cousins, "Let us go now."

"Yes!" Demon Successors exclaimed in agreement.


At Ponyville Cafe, Shining Armor and Princess Cadance were looking around and checking on the pop-art collection show. They came across to the messy formation of shields and spears mashup. They both were having some problem to understand and figure it out.

"Shining Armor! Cadance!" A brown Pegasus with blue mane and short tail called as he approached both couples. He approached them, "How are the new 'rents? Gimme some hoof." He gave a hoof-bump to both of his friends. He grunted as he gave them a hug, "Oh, it is so good to see you dudes! Hey, thanks for coming."

"Of course, Spearhead! We're having a great time! Loving all the..." Shining Armor said awkwardly before looking at the artwork, "...art."

Spearhead scoffed, "Who's to say it's not art? Art can be anything that speaks to you. It changed my world." He led his friends to the black colored background, "This is my latest piece – 'A Thousand Nights in a Hallway'."

"Wow, I guess nighttime in a hallway can be pretty dark." Princess Cadance commented.

Spearhead hissed in concern, "There is none more dark."

Shining Armor baffled, "Yeah. Totally."

Princess Cadance sighed, "We're just so happy to be here. Usually we're covered in mashed peas by now."

Shining Armor chuckled, "Yeah. I'd bet Shadow Dragon is gonna get pissed about it."


Back at the Castle of Friendship, Twilight and her family have managed to feed Flurry Heart. Unfortunately for them, they and their dinning hall were covered by mash peas. Twilight and Nyx were embarrassed. Shadow Dragon, Lance and Spike were annoyed by it.

Shadow Dragon sneezed unconditionally before grunted, " I get the feeling that your brother purposely set this up for embarrassing me..."

"Aw, come on, Daddy. That wasn't too bad!" Nyx said happily as she held Flurry up. They both gave innocent pouty looks, "Besides, we all did give Flurry a good lunch."

Shadow Dragon was huffed in annoyance. Twilight giggled, "She's right." She levitated and nuzzled Flurry's face. She make a soft cute voice, "We got you fed, didn't we, Flurry?"

Flurry giggled happily. Spike sighed, "Hate to bring the bad news, guys. We're only twenty minutes behind schedule."

"WHAT?!" Twilight asked in shock and concern, "Oh no!"

Lance hissed, "Calm down, Twi. We can totally do this."

"Thanks, Lance. We'd better let Metal and our butlers to clean this mess up." Twilight sighed, "Let's get going."


"Okay, we just need to grab some toys and we are outta here."

Twilight and her family arrived at the toy shop. Shadow Dragon brought the shopping cart for them to get some toys and even carried Flurry on it. They looked around thoroughly as they took down some various action figures, dolls, board games and more toys.

While they were collecting some toys, Flurry levitated her teddy bear and growled a bit like a bear before her aunt. She noticed it.

Twilight giggled, "You want to play, don't you?" She smiled amusingly, "Well, I know a game that's even more fun!" She turned to her family, "And more efficient. Playing race carts!"

Twilight trotted off while driving the shopping cart off. Her family followed them as well. And at the same time, they also brought down and collected couple of various toys. This made Flurry giggled happily for fun.

On the action figure section, a hole was dug out. Both Quake and Voltscar heads popped out. They were able to get out, unfortunately, they got stuck due to their sizes are big and bulky. They both argued and shouted at each other as they tried to get out of hole. However, as they were arguing, they got their heads rammed and knocked out by Twilight and her family during playing race carts. Both Demon Successors groaned and moaned in pain as they both were dizzy.

Twilight and her family arrived at the counter. All of them panted in exhaustion.

Spike panted, "Hey, nice thinking, Twilight!"

"Best aunt ever!" Twilight cheered happily. She levitated and put some toys on the counter. She felt her tail being pulled. She turned and found Flurry looked upset and sad. She sighed, "Hang on, Flurry. The race cart's taking a pit stop."

Flurry groaned in upset. Lance carried her up. He smiled, "How about you let Cousin Lance take you for a ride?"

"Yeah. Mummy will deal with this while we have our fun," Nyx said happily.

Shadow Dragon smiled and nodded, "Good thinking. Go ahead."

Lance and Nyx cheered happily while Flurry giggled happily. The baby placed on Lance's back as he and his little sister trotted off for running in race. Twilight, Shadow Dragon and Spike were paying for the toys.

Three children were running happily from one to another sections while looking at some toys and checking on them. As they come across to 'Space Wars' Section, they heard roaring noise. They found Quake and Voltscar stood before them.

"Are you kidding me?!" Lance asked in annoyance, "Now?!"

Nyx hissed, "What do you want?!"

"Handover the baby to us!" Quake demanded in anger.

Voltscar snarled, "Or there will be sever consequence!"

"How about this," Lance said firmly as he passed Flurry to Nyx. He summoned his Oblivion Dragoon and Oathkeeper Blossoming Swords. He spoke, "Kiss my ass goodbye!"

Nyx groaned, "Lance! Not in front of Flurry! Aunt Cadance is going to kill us for teaching her bad words!"

"Nyx. Get the baby out now!" Lance said firmly, "I'll deal with some bad boys!"

Nyx nodded in agreement, "Alright." She put Flurry on her back, "Flurry, hang on! This is going to be one heck of a ride!"

As Flurry held tight on her cousin's ears, Nyx turned and headed off at once. Both Quake and Voltscar roared in anger as they both charged and chased after the baby. Luckily, Lance blocked their way. The demons were annoyed and angered. Quake clenched his fists tightly while Voltscar summoned lightning sword-like.

Quake swung his punches at Lance, who dodged the attacks and moving away from him for five rounds. Lance quickly jumped and kicked the buffalo demon to left shelf. Voltscar grabbed him by head before whack him on both shelves wildly and crazily like a rag doll. Luckily, Lance quickly kicked his legs on the demon's face for ten times. He dropped down as he swiped his kick at Voltscar's legs, making the demon fall down. Lance armed and readied his swords as both Demon Successors charged and engaged him. Lance swiftly and fiercely blocked the attacks while striking back at them, who used brute strength to deflect and retaliate.

Nyx continued running away as fast as she can. Unfortunately, she found ahead of her was a tower of dolls. As she tried to stop her running, she slammed straight on them. The dolls dropped and fell on them.

Twilight and her family noticed it. They quickly approached and checked on it. They moved the dolls aside. They found Nyx and Flurry, who were groaned and moaned in pain.

"Nyx? Flurry? What happen?" Twilight asked in concern.

SCREAM! BAM!Twilight and her family yelped in concern. They turned and found Lance slammed on the walls hard. Both Quake and Voltscar emerged out from the toy sections, making ponies to scream and run away at once. They both armed and readied to finish Lance off.

"That's for getting in our way to getting the baby!" Voltscar snarled.

Quake nodded angrily, "Any last word?"

"Yeah! Chaos Hyper Blast!" Shadow Dragon shouted as he armed with his Darkness Blade.

His Darkness Blade glowed in dark bluish-yellowish aura, Shadow Dragon swung Darkness Blade in firing a powerful hails of dark energy. They struck and knocked two Demon Successors out of the toy store. Everyone sighed in relief.

Shadow Dragon approached and helped Lance up, "You okay, kiddo?"

"Yeah. Pain to my ass..." Lance remarked in pain while rubbing his head.

"Why would they want the baby?" Twilight asked in concern.

"I have no idea." Nyx said in concern as she held Flurry close to her, "We can't let them get to her."

"Agreed." Twilight agreed before looked at the toy store's section. She sighed, "We'd better clean this up before we get unwanted guests."

"I'll do it. You guys go ahead." Shadow Dragon said calmly before passing the Dragoking's Summoning Crystal to Twilight, "You're gonna need a guard dog to look after you."

Twilight nodded, "Alright. Thanks."

Twilight and her family headed off. Shadow Dragon turned and looked at toy store's. He sighed in annoyance as he began cleaning the mess Quake and Voltscar have made.


Twilight and her family have arrived at the Ponyville Schoolhouse. They entered it as they approached to Cheerilee, who brought the small wheeled bookshelf of books. Lance and Spike looked at couple of books. Nyx was reading a storybook to Flurry, who actually love it.

"Thanks for helping us out, Cheerilee," Twilight greeted calmly.

"Oh, no problem." Cheerilee said happily, "But I gotta say, I'm surprised you came to me for a book. Don't you have a huge collection?"

Twilight sighed, "Yes, but I didn't think the foals would be interested in The Unabridged History of Amulets in pony Latin."

Cheerilee hummed thoughtfully before nodded, "Yeah, it was good you came to me." She picked a brown book with classic symbol, "How about the complete collection of Ponyville Fables and Stables?"

Twilight shook her head, "Mmm, too long."

Cheerilee brought a blue book with various planets, "Alien Alicorns vs. Space Pirates?"

Twilight hummed, "Well, the science there is preposterous—"

"How about 'Burnferno, Warrior from Within'?" Spike suggested as he brought the book, which has the dragon warrior stood proudly, "It's about a handsome dragon warrior who slays evildoers with his breath and his snappy comebacks!"

"How about this one? The Spirit of Sergei Clan?!" Lance suggested as he showed the book that has a young stallion donned a crimson armor and headband of six golden coins stood proudly and held his spear up while the backdrop is wooden fortress-like firing thousands of arrows. He smirked, "I like this one a lot. It's about Yukimura and his father Katsuna Sergei, who used their courage and brains to beat the crap out of the Tokugawa Clan! My favorite part is using Sergei Fort for pushing them back!"

Twilight Sparkle giggled, "Let's borrow those books for you two and keep looking."

Lance and Spike nodded as they opened and read their favorite books. Cheerilee continued picking and showing a book to Twilight to choose including 'Lord of the Rings'.

Nyx just finished the storybook about 'Beauty and the Demon Pony'. She turned and find another book to keep Flurry occupied. While the baby was busy playing with her Whammy, she spotted a strange frog croaking and hopping around her. She giggled happily as she tried to catch it but missed. The frog hopped towards the school's entrance. She giggled as she follow it.

Nyx turned back as she brought a book called 'The Little Witch'. She turned to the baby but found Flurry missing. She headed to Spike and Lance, and secretly told them about it. Two boys yelped in concern. Three children looked around of their surroundings as they were searching for Flurry, without making Twilight worried.


Flurry continued flying as she was chasing after the frog, which led her outside. And just before she could capture it, a winged demon grabbed her by bare claws. Song Wing laughed amusingly at the baby. The frog transformed back to Gusty. She smirked amusingly at Gusty, who was annoyed and angered.

"We'd never ever speak of this again!" Gusty said annoyingly.

"Wouldn't dream of it," Song Wing scoffed as she held and squeezed Flurry's cheek, "Now that we've got it. Let's go."

"the only place you're going is staying here!" Shadow Dragon said darkly and angrily. Song Wing and Gusty yelped upon looking at him armed with Darkness Blade. He continued, "Now put the baby down, demons!"

"And if we say 'no'?" Song Wing asked amusingly. Shadow Dragon fired his Darkness Sphere, which gave her a cut on cheek before passed by. Using her one little finger, She touched on her cheek's blood. She grunted in annoyance, "I guess you don't take it."

Gusty scoffed, "And too bad, we don't too!"

Gusty took a deep breath as he burst of his gust at Shadow Dragon, who quickly summoned holographic rounded Shield of Darkness to block the attack. While Gusty continued blowing Shadow Dragon away, Song Wing flew and rammed him off. He groaned in pain as he slowly get up. Song Wing slammed her punch at his face, followed by Gusty's. He grunted in pain as he got up to engage them, but forced to restraint from hurting Flurry since she was in Song Wing's claw.

Gusty and Song Wing continued assaulting by combats and abilities at Shadow Dragon, while using Flurry as their hostage to hold him back for few rounds. He was beaten to the ground as he struggled of getting up. Gusty took a deep breathe as he sucked the air out of Shadow Dragon, making the pony to suffocate from breathing. Song Wing unleashed her powerful screech at him, making him more painful.

Seeing Shadow Dragon is on the verge of death, Flurry looked scared and worried. She cried as she unleashed her surprise yet powerful barrier spell in knocking both Gusty and Song Wing off. They both got knocked out at once.

Seeing his opening, Shadow Dragon struggled of getting up and holding his Darkness Blade. He screamed in anger as he fired his Darkness Spheres at both Gusty and Song Wing hard. He then charged as he quickly held Flurry within her barrier up. He then unleashed his multiple strikes on them before fired a powerful Chaos Hyper Blast at them.


Inside the schoolhouse, Twilight and Cheerilee were still searching for a good book. Lance, Nyx and Spike were searching and looking around for Flurry Heart. Cheerilee took a book that has a cover of unicorn with green mane with red streak.

"Uh, how about Gusty the Great?" Cheerilee asked.

"Ooh, that was one of my favorites when I was a filly! We'll take it!" Twilight said happily. Cheerilee passed the book to her. She turned to her back. She gasped as she found not only her children were thoroughly searching the schoolhouse and but also empty wheeled cradle. She then shouted in fear and concern, "Where's Flurry Heart?!"

Three children yelped in concern as they turned and faced to worried yet angry Twilight. And just before they could explain, two familiar demons burst through the walls and then out of the schoolhouse. The attack shocked the group about it.

Shadow Dragon entered the scene while holding happy Flurry on his right hoof. He panted heavily as he got exhausted from the fight.

"Sorry about the mess," Shadow Dragon apologized, "I'll get dad to pay for the damages."

Cheerilee sighed, "Thank you, Shadow Dragon. Seriously, why are those two Demons doing here?"

Twilight shrugged, "I have no idea. But we'd better leave now. Thanks again for the book."

Cheerilee nodded happily. Twilight and her family quickly headed off at once before Song Wing and Gusty got up and attacked them again.


Back at the cafe, Spearhead guided both Shining Armor and Princess Cadance to the poles barrier. It has the artwork of various colorful hooves of different sizes.

"Feast your eyes. This one's called 'A Kitchen Guard's Journey'!" Spearhead introduced.

Princess Cadance looked at the artwork as she shown confuse and uncertainty. Shining Armor smiled and laughed a bit, "This reminds me of the time Flurry got into the chocolate pudding, and we found little chocolate hoofprints all over the carpet."

Princess Cadance gasped, "That took forever to clean up! But remember how cute her little face looked when we caught her?"

Shining Armor nodded, "Yeah. She was like," He imitated Flurry Heart, "Uh-oh!"

Both Princess Cadance and Shining Armor laughed happily, which impressed Spearhead happily that ponies appreciated his artwork.


Twilight's family were in the hurry as they all headed straight to Sugarcube Corner. Twilight has become more pressured and worried than before due to her being late for sick foals and dealing with Demon Successors getting her niece. Her family became worried about her now.

"Twilight, you need to think over of what you're doing." Shadow Dragon exclaimed in concern, "You can't handle both duties at the same time. Maybe me and the kids will take care of Flurry while you and Spike deal with your visits to hospital."

Spike nodded, "Yeah, Twi. Maybe I should-!"

"No! We can do this! We still can make it!" Twilight protested, "The sick foals are counting on us! And the B.A.E. would never throw in the towel like that!"

"B.A.E.?" Spike and Shadow Dragon asked curiously.

"Best Aunt Ever!" Twilight exclaimed happily, "Just a little bit more! I'm not gonna fail! That's the promise!"

"Aw man! Is she always stubborn as my dad?" Lance asked in concern.

Nyx sighed, "She is. And trust me, you don't wanna mess with her."

Twilight and her family continued running as fast as they can. They all have arrived at the Sugarcube Corner. They quickly entered and get the treats at once. Unknown to them, three Demon Successors spotted them. Drago, Mei Kai and Avalanche looked at each other as they all nodded happily. Both Drago and Mei Kai transformed into their pony forms.


After entering the bakery, Twilight levitated and put Flurry close to Cake Twins, who were playing with their toys. At first, the twins were uncertain and concerns about meeting a new friend, but nevertheless, they tried befriend with her by giving their toys to her to play with. She agreed to play with them now.

"Wonderful! They're friends already!" Twilight said happily.

Shadow Dragon sighed, "Hopefully, nothing could sidetrack her." He turned to Lance, Nyx and Spike, "Keep your eyes sharp on anything."

Lance, Nyx and Spike nodded as they sat down close to the babies while keeping an eye on them. Lance and Spike were reading 'Spirit of Sergei Clan' and 'Burnferno, Warrior from Within'. Nyx was playing toys with the babies. Both Twilight and Shadow Dragon approached to Pinkie for their business.

"Hi, Pinkie! How's it going?" Twilight greeted happily, "I need to pick up the cupcakes for the foals at the hospital! And can you do apology treats?"

Pinkie smiled as she prepared the box of colorful cupcakes, "I'm good. Here they are. Of course I can!"

"Do you still have a giant file on everypony's favorite treat?" Twilight asked curiously.

"In my secret party planning cave!" Pinkie said happily as she pressed some buttons on the cash register machine. The level came out from the floor. She smiled, "BRB!"

Pinkie pulled the level back. The trapdoor opened as she fell into it. Both Twilight and Shadow Dragon were surprise by it. And by one second, Pinkie reappeared as she brought the couple of files before them.

"I'd never knew how she do it like Lax," Shadow Dragon said in concern.

Twilight smiled and shrugged amusingly, "That's Pinkie Pie."

Twilight and Shadow Dragon discussed with Pinkie about giving 'apology treats' to both Cheerilee and Toy Store Manager about the damages Demon Successors have caused. Lance and Spike were busy reading their books while Nyx were playing dolls with the babies.

Unknown to anypony; three demons, in ponies' disguises, entered the bakery. They all looked around of their surroundings as they were searching for their targets. Drago and Mei Kai spotted their targets.

"We've got our targets!" Drago said amusingly.

Mei Kai nodded, "Good. First thing first, we need to get rid of those two fools. And then, we get Yue and the baby. Like taking a candy from the babies."

Drago smiled, "Leave the distraction to me, babe."

Drago approached to both Lance and Spike as he 'distract' them about food the Sugarcube Corner have. Lance and Spike smiled as they're happy to help him. Mei Kai approached to Nyx and three babies before squealed happily, attracting their attentions.

"Oh my gosh! They're so cute! Are they your brothers and sisters?!" Mei Kai asked happily.

Nyx shook her head gently, "Nope. Pound and Pumpkin are Cakes' twin." She held Flurry up, "This is my baby cousin, Flurry. Say hello, Flurry!" Instead of friendly greeting, the baby yelped in fear before flew behind Nyx's back. Flurry quivered and shivered in fear. She was in shock and surprise about her cousin's behavior, "Hey, what's the matter?"

"Oh don't worry, I won't bite, little baby. I won't try to bite you." Mei Kai said amusingly while remained calm and patient. She smiled while looking at Nyx, "You wouldn't mind me holding your cousin? I like babies!"

Shocked yet suspicious by Mei Kai's suggestion, Nyx was smart from not trusting and talking with strangers like her. And adding to her concerns, Flurry was afraid of her for some reasons. To ensure she can trust her, she asked one question.

"You know my dad? He loves gravity, doesn't he?" Nyx asked amusingly.

Mei Kai giggled, "Oh yes. You should know that. Master Tso Lan has indeed love of gravity but best of all is-!" She gasped in realization before looking at Nyx's glare. She hissed, "Oh shit..."

"Nice try, Mei Kai! You won't fool me again. And I knOw you're not alone here," Nyx exclaimed in anger. She turned and looked at Lance and Spike were talking with Drago. Holding Flurry tight close to her, she screamed, "MEI KAI & DRAGO ARE HERE! THEY'RE HERE!"

Everyone stopped their doing and shouted in concern, "WHAT?!"

Mei Kai groaned, "Sometimes I hate plans going south! Drago, go berserk!"

"About time!" Drago exclaimed in relief as he transformed back into his true form, "I'm sick of disguise especially being a pony!"

Mei Kai and Drago armed and readied to fight their enemies. The ponies armed themselves for a fight while Nyx kept all babies close to her.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! No fighting at my bakery!" Pinkie exclaimed in concern.

"Well, there's one way to end this!" Spike said in concern. He turned to Nyx, "Hey, Nyx, didn't you say that Avalanche liked something else than just meat?"

Nyx gasped, "There's one!" She cheered, "AVALANCHE! DESERT TIME! COME AND GET IT!"

Mei Kai and Drago were confuse and concern until they heard the stomping ground. It scared not only them, but also the ponies sans Spike and Nyx. Spike and Nyx grabbed and thrown all of sweets, cakes and ice-creams on two demons. Twilight, Shadow Dragon and Lance quickly charged and kicked both demons out from the Sugarcube Corner.

As both Drago and Mei Kai struggled of getting up, they both saw Avalanche licked his mouth and looking at them hungrily. This make two demons uneasy and worried especially screams. They quickly ran off at once.

Avalanche roared as he chased after them both, "Come back! Me hungry!"

The ponies found three Demons running away from their place. They all sighed in relief.

"That was close." Pinkie commented in relief, "Not in the script, but I'm happy that Cake Twins didn't pick a food fight and mess the place up."

"No problem. And we'd better go now," Twilight said in concern.

Shadow Dragon held Twilight's hoof, "Twi, listen for a good reason. There is no way we can keep this up. Just go with my plan, and then-!"

"No, Shadow Dragon! I'm not. I promised my brother that I'll look after her and spend time with her," Twilight said firmly, "You got it?"

Shadow Dragon groaned, "Mares... Fine! But let Dragoking go loose. He'll keep an eye out."

Twilight nodded firmly, "Fine by me."

Twilight threw Summoning Crystal out to summon Dragoking. He roared wildly and happily. Twilight and her family quickly climbed on it while putting the cart of toys and book. They rode off at once as they're heading to the hospital.


"YOU IDIOTS!" Dark Xing screamed in anger.

Seven Demon Successors stood before Dark Xing. Quake, Voltscar, Gusty and Song Wing were bruised and badly injured while Drago and Mei Kai were covered in wet saliva. Avalanche looked confuse and silly as he was sucking his thumb.

Dark Xing groaned in annoyance, "How hard is it for you all to capture a baby?!" She turned and glared at Avalanche, "And really?! Hungry?! Sweets? Cake? Ice-cream?"

Avalanche growled, "Me hungry..."

"But point is, Da Xing! It's very hard when you're dealing with many ponies?!" Drago exclaimed in annoyance, "If it were Twilight and Spike, we can get her!"

"He has the point..." Gusty admitted in concern.

"Forgive us, cousin," Mei Kai said in shame.

"Pathetic..." Dark Xing said darkly and angrily, "If you want to get something done, you have to do it by yourself. And this time, that baby is ours!"


Twilight and her family managed to get to the hospital in time. While Shadow Dragon and Dragoking were keeping an eye out on Demon Successors, Twilight and her family were inside the hospital for giving some treats to the sick foals. Twilight was reading 'Gusty the Great' to foals while everyone was eating their cupcakes.

"...and while nopony had ever tried to reach Cloudsdale on hoof, Gusty the Great was not deterred! She and her unicorn warriors marched up the hill. But suddenly, they encountered..."Twilight read the book calmly, making foals gasped in concern. She smirked to scare them,"It was the treacherous Grogar..."

The foals gasped in concern and worried. Twilight continued,"...and Gusty could tell he was ready for battle. Gusty called out to the unicorn warriors—"She yelped in pain, "Ow!" She stopped at once upon feeling her tail being pulled. She turned and found Flurry upset and angry, "Not right now, Flurry. These foals really want to hear this."

Twilight returned to the foals as she continued reading the book. Her face glowed in red, Flurry threw her tantrum at once, which she accidentally kicked her Whammy off to the entrance. As the baby calm down, she noticed and found her doll went missing. She looked everywhere before looking ahead. She found Whammy at the entrance. She flew and try to get it.

Nyx noticed Flurry leaving the place. She flew off and follow her baby cousin. And just before Flurry could get her doll, she got grabbed and held by Dark Xing. Nyx gasped in concern.

"Dark Xing!" Nyx exclaimed in concern before groaned in anger, "Let her go!"

"No! I'm gonna keep her for our feast..." Dark Xing said amusingly.

"What?!" Nyx asked in shock and confuse.

Dark Xing smirked as she held Flurry tight, "Yes. That is my intention. By drinking Alicorn's blood, we'll be more powerful and stronger. And we will free our parents from their imprisonment. I was intending to kidnap you but it's not worth my time."

"Son of a bitch! Give her back!" Nyx exclaimed in anger. Dark Xing fired her Dark Beam in knocking her to the ground. Dark Xing and Flurry disappeared at once. She gasped, "Nooooooooo!"

Nyx quickly returned to the room. She found Twilight was still reading 'Gusty the Great' story to the sickly foals. She quickly jumped and flew over them. She stood before her mother. She shook Twilight hard to get her attention before pulling the tail hard.

"Ow!" Twilight yelped in pain before turned to Nyx, "What is it, Nyx?!" She then realized something else. She looked around as she found someone missing, "Wait! Where's Flurry Heart?!"

"That's what I'm trying to tell you! Dark Xing kidnap her!" Nyx screamed in concern.

"WHAT?!" Twilight, Lance and Spike asked in shock and concern.

Shadow Dragon came inside the hospital's children wing. He demanded, "We heard the scream! What happen?! Where's Flurry Heart?!"

"She got kidnapped!" Nyx exclaimed in concern.

"WHAT?!" Shadow Dragon asked in shock. He groaned in anger before turned to Twilight, "This is your fault!" Twilight was in shock yet angered. He continued, "If you had listen to my plan, this wouldn't have happen!"

Twilight groaned as she jumped before Shadow Dragon, "Hey! You were suppose to keep an eye out on Demon Successors! How did that Dark Xing get in without letting you notice of you?!"

"Oh?! It's my fault?! In case, you have forgotten - you were the one who put babysitting Flurry in our schedule! It backfired!"

"Well, sorry for this mess! But I'd never get a chance to spend time with my niece. And this is the perfect time to do it!"

"Yeah. Look at where it has gotten us now?! I hope you're happy with this, pussycat!"

"Don't you dare start with this again, asshole!"

"ENOUGH!" Lance shouted in anger, silencing Twilight and Shadow Dragon, "It's everyone's fault, okay? We all got sidetracked between hospital visit and babysitting Flurry. But now, this is not the time to argue, okay?"

Spike nodded, "He's right. We have to find and get Flurry back before who knows what those guys want with her."

"And also, you two owe each other apology for messing up?" Nyx reminded calmly.

Realizing what the children have said, Twilight and Shadow Dragon looked at each other. They both sighed in shame of what they said.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to insult you," Shadow Dragon apologized

Twilight shook her head, "No. I should have taken your advice earlier. Then, none of this could have happen. It's my fault."

"Okay with it?"

"Yeah, I am."

"Good to see you okay. But where do we start finding Flurry?" Spike asked in concern, "She could be anywhere!"

Shadow Dragon smirked, "Not quite..."


Somewhere inside the Everfree Forest, Flurry Heart was trapped inside the crystallized cage-like, held by Dark Xing. The baby was scared and worried as she tried to use her teleportation spell to get out but no avail due to the cage prevented her from escaping. Flurry sniffled as she has tears flowing down on her cheeks while moaned unhappily.

"And this is how it's done," Dark Xing said dryly and darkly. Demon Successors showed their angered yet irritated faces. She scoffed, "And you were having problem of capturing a baby! What an excuse you all have!"

Drago groaned, "I would like to give you piece of my mind about our excuse..."

Quake snorted in anger, "Tell me about it..."

"Either way..." Dark Xing said amusingly before turned and glared at scared and worried Flurry, "It's time to feast her flesh and blood. Her power will be mine!"

"Hey, you mean ours!" Voltscar exclaimed in anger.

Gusty nodded, "Yeah! We deserve those credits!"

"For failures!" Dark Xing exclaimed in anger at her cousins before held the cage close to her. She continued, "I'm the only one, who was able to accomplish my mission while the rest of you are fooling around."

"So do you!" Song Wing shouted at Dark Xing, "You're also a failure. Your father berated you!"

Mei Kai nodded, "And not to mention, you'd never ever listen to us for once. It's the reason why we failed out missions!"

"Yeah!" Avalanche exclaimed in anger.

"SILENT!" Dark Xing exclaimed in anger as her three claws glowed in darkness, causing her cousins to fell to the ground like gravity pulled them. She snarled, "I am the oldest and leader of this team! I decided it. And therefore, I decide to feast her powers! It's my right!"

Dark Xing held the cage as she gave a dark glare at Flurry, who was still scared and worried. And just before she tried to reach and grab the Alicorn Baby.

"Wait! I have a better idea!" Mei Kai called out, making Dark Xing turned and glared at the Water Demon. She grunted in pain while weakly said, "Why kill this baby...when we can make her one of us? Since those ponies stole our blood sister, we might else do the same."

Demon Successors were in shock and surprise by Mei Kai's surprise. At first, they were against it but slowly smiled amusingly, even for Dark Xing.

"Hmm...raising an Alicorn baby with uncontrollable magic and having her on our side?" Dark Xing asked amusingly before laughed a bit. She relaxed her claws, freeing her cousins from being pulled down. She smirked, "I love it!"

Drago nodded, "You know, she might be of some use to us after all. So, what tricks are we gonna teach her?"

"You're not gonna teach her anything!"

Demon Successors turned to their back as they found Twilight and her family stood before them. All of them armed with their weapons and readied to fight. Dragoking was with them as well. He growled and snarled angrily at the Demons.

"Give me back my niece," Twilight said angrily.

Shadow Dragon nodded angrily, "Don't make us lose our temper."

Dark Xing scoffed as she passed Flurry's cage to Avalanche to hold. She turned and glared at her enemies, "Then, come and get it! You will not stop us from achieving our goal!"

Nyx groaned as she transformed into her teenager as her Battle Mode, "You're gonna regret it!"

Twilight groaned, "Everyone, attack!"

Twilight and her family gave a battle cry as they charged and engaged with Demon Successors. The demons sans also charged and attacked as well. Both sides have clashed and engaged with each other fiercely and determinedly.

Twilight and Nyx engaged with Dark Xing, Mei Kai and Song Wing fiercely. Shadow Dragon, Lance and Spike fought against Drago, Voltscar, Quake and Gusty. Dragoking attacked Avalanche, who was still holding Flurry's Cage and running away from the fight.

Song Wing unleashed her Screech while Mei Kai used her Hydro Pump at Twilight and Nyx, who used their barriers for blocking and deflecting the attacks. Dark Xing appeared as she levitated and slammed giant rocks on two Alicorns, who quickly moved back at once. They both quickly fired their Unicorn Bursts at three female demons, who quickly dodged the attacks. Song Wing flew down and rammed them both hard. Mei Kai slithered towards her enemies before coiled them up. Dark Xing used her powerful dark magic in choking Twilight and Nyx up.

Twilight and Nyx struggled of escaping the choke as they can't think straight. Luckily for them, they teleported and appeared behind of three demons. They fired their powerful Magical Beam Orb in knocking them to the ground. Song Wing recovered as she flew up before unleashed her Wing Slash, forcing Alicorns to use barriers to deflect the blasts at Song Wing. Mei Kai hissed as she fired her Water Torpedo at them, forcing two Alicorns to dodge and avoid the attacks at once. As Mei Kai fired her Dark Water Balls while charging at them, both Twilight and Nyx quickly used their kicks in kicking her off. They turned and engaged with Dark Xing, who was skilled with her martial skills of fight back. Mei Kai and Song Wing joined their cousins. Both sides engaged with each other by combats and magic powers.

Spike screamed in fear as he was running away from Drago, who fired his Fireballs and Dragon Flames. Thanks to his size and thinking, Spike evaded and outmaneuvered the dragon demon for few rounds, and even used the lake's water to weaken him. Using his martial art skills, Shadow Dragon evaded the attacks while fought Quake and Voltscar, who used his brute force in attacking him. Lance engaged with Gusty, who blew him away from him while using rocks to throw at him. But luckily for Lance, who quickly used his dual swords to block and deflect the attacks while charging at him. He tried to engage Gusty, who dodge and avoid the attacks while firing his gust attacks at him.

Dragoking roared in anger as he challenged Avalanche, who was running away while pushing the Hydragoon away from him. Even using his multiple heads to get Flurry, Avalanche kept her away from him by using his size and summoning nature and mountain to fight back.

Despite Twilight and her family giving their best to fight back, they got pushed back and cornered by Demon Successors. They all got the ponies surrounded. All of them armed and readied to finish Twilight and her family off.

"It's over now..." Dark Xing said amusingly, "And this time, we will finish you off for good!"

Twilight panted, "Any idea?"

Shadow Dragon looked at mash peas and Whammy from his bag, "Prepare to face the baby's wrath."

"You're kidding me?!" The ponies asked in concern.

"Trust me. Get Flurry out of her cage," Shadow Dragon said firmly, "Dragoking, Elemental Attacks on everyone!"

Obeyed his master's command, Dragoking used his ten heads to fire ten Elemental Powers in attacking Demon Successors, forcing them to dodge and escape the attacks. Twilight teleported before Flurry as she get the baby out. Shadow Dragon threw Whammy at Dark Xing, who quickly fired her powerful blast in destroying the doll. Everyone sans Demon Successors gasped in shock and concern.

"Dad... That's..." Lance said in shock and concern.

Nyx hissed, "That's Flurry's Whammy! And you know how fussy and angry she gets!"

"Exactly!" Shadow Dragon said firmly, "Baby's wrath."

Twilight found Flurry upset yet sad and angry. The baby was not only crying but also her horn glowed in yellow as she was about to unleash her devastating power - firing her powerful Unicorn Bursts in wounding Demon Successors. Ponies and Dragoking dodged the attacks. She continued crying while unleashing her powers wildly and uncontrollably of attacking and wounding the Demon Successors.

"Okay, this is really bad idea!" Drago exclaimed in concern.

Mei Kai nodded, "I suggest we retreat!"

Dark Xing snarled, "This isn't over! ESCAPE NOW!"

Using her dark magic power, Demon Successors quickly teleported to escape the battlefield at once. Flurry continued crying and unleashing her powers. Ponies and Dragoking were dodging and running away from the attacks.

"Way to go, Shadow Dragon! You let her Whammy destroyed!" Twilight exclaimed in concern, "How are we going to calm her down?!"

"That wasn't Whammy! And that snail doll is blue!" Shadow Dragon shouted firmly before showing the real green snail doll, "This is the real one. But need someone to cool her temper off."

"How, expert?!"

"I have no idea! I usually let them cool off their temper."

Twilight groaned in anger, "Shadow Dragon! I really going to kill you for this!"

Twilight turned and faced to Flurry, who continued crying and cranking. She gave some thoughts before looking worry and sighed, knowing it's the only trick she has. While Flurry was crying, she teleported and showed her angry bear's scary face before her. Flurry yelped in concern before summoned the barrier and descended to the ground for protection.

Twilight and her family approached and checked on Flurry. Twilight approached while holding Whammy. She knocked the barrier gently.

"Flurry! Flurry! Look at me, please," Twilight pleaded. Flurry fearfully and worriedly turned and looked at her aunt. The Alicorn showed her funny face before showing Whammy, "It's me. Auntie Twiley! And look who's with me?"

Flurry gasped as she deactivated her barrier. She sniffed tearfully while smiling. She jumped and hugged Twilight, who hugged her niece back while giving the baby back Whammy.

Twilight sighed, "Sorry for scaring you especially your Whammy. But I'm glad you're alright." Flurry nodded happily. She sighed, "But I'm really sorry for this mess. I've been a terrible aunt today too."

"What?!" Spike asked in shock, "What are you talking about?!"

Lance nodded, "Yeah. You did well."

"No. I didn't." Twilight disagreed before looking at Flurry, "All you wanted to do was play, and I've barely been able to pay attention to you. None of this is your fault. It's mine. So much for being the best aunt ever. But I hope you know how much I love you."

Though understand a bit, Flurry smiled as she jumped and hugged her aunt. Twilight couldn't help but feel relief and happy about it, so do her family.

"Sounds like she understands it," Shadow Dragon said calmly. He sighed, "I think we have enough adventure for one day."

Twilight smiled, "Yeah. Let's go home..."


Back at the cafe, Shining Armor and Princess Cadance were still looking at the art collection. However, they're becoming saddened and upset every time they see some artworks being reminded of their baby. They saw the cake that matched with Flurry's mane color scheme. Spearhead was aware of it.

Princess Cadance cried, "This one kind of reminds me of Flurry's hair."

"Uh-huh. And this one reminds me of Flurry too." Shining Armor said tearfully of looking at the trophy. He cried, "It's small... like her! I-I can't do this anymore! Spearhead, I-!"

"Say no more. My art has always spoken to me about what I love. But knowing that it spoke to you about what you love speaks to me." Spearhead said firmly and calmly. Shining Armor and Princess Cadance looked surprise. He spoke, "Go to her."

Without saying anything, both Shining Armor and Princess Cadance headed off at once. They're all headed off to Castle of Friendship.


Back at Castle of Friendship, Twilight and her family were playing hide-and-seek game with Flurry. They've been doing it for two hours. They then heard two familiar voices calling for Flurry. They all exited and found Shining Armor and Princess Cadance entered the castle.

"Oh, we missed you so much!" Shining Armor exclaimed happily.

Princess Cadance levitated her baby towards her. She and her husband gave Flurry a gentle nuzzle. However, the baby giggled as she flew back to Twilight and Shadow Dragon. Crystal Empire Couples were in shock and upset.

"But it looks like you had a great time without us." Princess Cadance remarked in upset tone.

"Actually, not so much." Twilight corrected.

Shadow Dragon explained, "We ran into some troubles - Demons. They wanted her blood for their powered ups. But we kept her safe from harm."

Shining Armor and Princess Cadance were in shock and concern. Twilight continued, "And to be honest, none of us have expected Demons coming after her." She sighed, "And not to mention, I shouldn't have agreed to watch her with such a jam-packed schedule. It was too much to juggle. Plus, I should ever agreed with Shadow Dragon's suggestion and not taking the risk."

"But I'm pretty sure, Twilight learned a lesson today."

"Yeah. It turns out being the best aunt ever isn't about spending the most time with your niece, but spending quality time with her."

Though worried and nearly have a heart attack, Princess Cadance and Shining Armor sighed in relief that their baby was safe from danger. They levitated and put Flurry Heart back on cradle.

"Well, we definitely should've given you more of a heads up." Shining Armor said in relief, "Just glad that she didn't cause too much of mischief."

"Not at all," Lance, Nyx and Spike exclaimed happily.

Princess Cadance sighed, "Yes! From now on, we'll give you plenty of notice."

"That'd be great," Shadow Dragon said in annoyance, "Honestly, I hate your pranks."

Shining Armor snickered, "My bad..."

"Hey, what are you doing next Tuesday?" Princess Cadance asked, scaring Twilight and her family. She quickly said, "For dinner, not to babysit."

"I'll have to check with my family, but I think we're free." Twilight said proudly.

Shadow Dragon scoffed, "Hopefully freed from being chased and attacked by Demons again!"

Everyone then laughed happily and amusingly inside the foyer. They all glad that everything is fine especially Flurry is safe from harm.
