First Day and the Howler

The next morning, following last night’s incident with the Whomping Willow, all the students and staff awoke for the start of the new school year. By the time Harry Potter and friends parted ways with their fellow Gryffindors, the CMC made way to attend their first lesson of their first year while the Assistant Professors departed for their own lessons. As dawn shined upon Hogwarts Castle, the Whomping Willow sulked in the courtyard, with slings strung about its injured branches. Over the castle walls lay the exterior of Greenhouse Three, where the students hurried inside for the beginning of class.

This was the class where the CMC would tackle their first Herbology assignment, a class taught by Professor Pomona Sprout. All the second year students consisted of a mix of Gryffindors and Slytherins also in attendance. The Gold Trio, including the Young Six, made their way inside waiting for both their Professor and assistant professor to arrive. Along the way, they decided to chat about their friends to pass the time. But of course, the biggest subject was recent events that had apparently spread across the school.

“Detention. On the first day?” Neville began.

“That must be some kind of record,” Seamus joked.

“We’re just lucky that’s all we got,” Sweetie Belle sighed.

“You’d think these guys would mind their own business,” Scootaloo pouted.

“Settle down, girls,” Apple Bloom advised. “Let’s just try to get through today.”

Suddenly, in the nick of time, Professor Sprout, a squat little witch, arrived to set the new school year off at a bright, fresh start. But she was not alone, as the assistant professor this class revealed herself… Apple Bloom’s own sister herself, Applejack.

“Morning everyone!” Sprout called out, tapping the pots with her wand. “Good morning, everyone!”

“Good morning, Professor Sprout!” The students greeted in unison.

“Morning’, y’all!” Applejack greeted.

“Morning, Professor Applejack!”

“Welcome to Greenhouse Three, Second Years,” Professor Sprout began. “Now gather round, everyone.”

The witch proceeded to beckon the students around a gathering of pots.

“Today, we’re going to re-pot Mandrakes. Now, who here can tell us the properties of the Mandrake root?”

“Yes, Hermoine Granger?” Applejack acknowledged.

“Mandrake, or Mandragora, is used to return those who have been transfigured or petrified to their original state,” Hermoine explained. “It’s also quite dangerous. The Mandrake’s cry is fatal to anyone who hears it.”

“Excellent!” Sprout nodded. “Ten points to Gryffindor.”

All the Gryffindors smiled for Hermoine, the girl giving them a stellar start. Meanwhile, all the Slytherins eyed them with envy.

“Now, as our Mandrakes are only seedlings, their cries won’t kill you yet,” Sprout explained. “However, they will knock you out for several hours—”

“Hold on, Professor Sprout,” Applejack interrupted, catching Ocellus. “Yes, Ocellus. Do you have a question?”

“How dangerous is a young Mandrake’s cry?” Ocellus asked nervously.

“Excellent question!” Applejack smiled with approval. “Like what Hermoine said, their cries won’t kill you… yet. Which is why we’ve given each of you a pair of earmuffs for auditory protection. And now, we’re about to find out just how loud is a young Mandrake’s cry. I think it’s time, Partner.

“I agree, Applejack,” Sprout nodded. “Students, could you all please put them on right away? Quickly. Flaps tight and watch us closely.”

While everyone gets their earmuffs on, Scootaloo turns to the side and her snickering causes her friends to look where she’s pointing. Frowning, Ron had gotten a bright pink fluffy pair. The girls couldn’t help but deem it funny, if only to take their minds off their upcoming detention. Seeing the class ready, Professor Sprout and Applejack led the class further down the garden area.

“All eyes and ears here, every pony and everyone,” Applejack beckoned. “No talking. Professor Sprout?”

Nodding in confirmation, the two processors proceed to grab two Mandrakes while the stout witch continues the lecture.

“You grasp your Mandrake firmly,” Sprout instructed. “You pull it sharply out of the pot—”

The professors proceed to grasp one of the tufty plants before them… and pull. Gasps erupt as eyes get a glimpse of the mandrakes. Instead of roots, they were small, muddy, and extremely ugly babies popping out of the Earth, leaves growing right out of their heads and their cries giving off an ear piercing pitch. Some of the students tried to cover their ears, while most were cringing over the noise but thankfully their professors knew what they were doing.

Eventually, Sprout and Applejack proceed to place both Mandrakes into their own separate pots.

“And now you dunk it down in the other pot and pour a little sprinkling of soil to keep them warm!” Sprout practically shouted.

The professors plunge the bawling creatures deep into the pots and proceed to sprinkle some soil along the little beasts. All of a sudden, Nevill and Sandbar’s eyes roll back, and they instantly faint in shock. As the professors remove their earmuffs, everyone, save Neville and Sandbar, follow suit. The professors sigh unamused seeing the boys stretched along the ground.

“Hm… looks as though Mr. Longbottom and Sandbar’s been neglecting their earmuffs,” Sprout observed.

While the Slytherins smirked, shaking their heads in amusement, Seamus leaned over to study the unconscious fellows.

“No, ma’ams,” Seamus corrected. “They just fainted.”

“Very well,” Sprout nodded understandingly. “We’ll just leave them there then.”

Seamus looks toward the professors then back toward the boys with disbelief as their mentors proceeded to continue their lecture on the proper method of Mandrake planting.

“Right, on we go,” Applejack continued. “Four to a tray, plenty of pots to go round. Remember: Grasp your Mandrake and pull it up.”

One by one, every student (Minus Neville and Sandbar) pulled their Mandrakes out of the pot. The entire student body cringed in disgust or in pain over the noise these young Mandrakes were making. Draco decided to play with one of the Mandrakes by tickling the creature, even attempting to put his finger into its mouth. The action caused the Mandrake to bite his finger while Draco pulled it out and immediately placed the plant back in the pot.

Gallus laughed at Draco’s misfortune, as the boy quickly removed Gallus’ earmuff with one hand and grabbed the Mandrake with another, holding it so close to the griffin’s ear making the young one cringe in pain over the screeching ringing through his eardrum.

“Ooh… a funny man, huh?” Gallus nodded.

Gallus proceeded to grab his own Mandrake and leaned him toward Draco’s nose, and the creature clenched his teeth along the bridge. Draco screamed in agony as his goons, Crabbe and Goyle, tried to pry the beast off of their leader. These shenanigans caused a few of Gallus’s friends to laugh in amusement, even a particular pony in the corner couldn’t help but giggle slightly at the scene.

Eventually, the bell rang loudly, signally the end of the lesson. Soon everyone scurried out of the room, as quickly as possible, all heading towards the Great Hall. Of course, just when they think the day has reached its end, what they didn’t know is that this day has only just begun.

Deep within the lower dungeon of Hogwarts, barely illuminated by the fire in the fireplace, the Potion Master Severus Snape was sitting in his office reading the Daily Prophet. Just then, a knocking upon his door interrupted his reading and yet he didn’t even bother to look up.

“Show yourself, Discord,” The head of Slytherin ordered.

In a flash of light, the master of chaos, found of his theater in Equestria, and self-proclaimed Hufflepuff professor appeared before the unamused potions master.

“Is that anyway to welcome a guest?” Discord huffed. “I should be docking points from you, Mr. Snake-in-the-grass. No, no… that’s too polite… Mr. Stick in the mud! Oh yeah, that’s a good one!”

“What do you want, Discord?” Snape grumbled.

“Well, for starters, you might want to hire someone to clean this place up,” Discord observed. “Honestly, the vibes here are… depressing. I’m put-off by this gloomy goth phase you’ve got going on.”

Snape, on the other hand, remained stone-faced despite the kooky draconequss’s antics.

“Fine. Have it your way, stone-face,” Discord mocked. “Luckily for you, being the suave, talented, and marvelous Hufflepuff Professor I am, I’m offering to do you a favor. Free of charge.”

“A favor?” Snape raised an eyebrow.

“Of course!”

In a flash, Discord snapped his fingers and a table with a pot and teacups appeared between the Snape and Discord.

“I suppose you know by now, the alliance of Equestria and the Wizarding World has just been renewed,” Discord explained. “There’s even this new alliance forged between the Jedi from some galaxy far, far away via Grand Master Storm Shield. In other words, we’ll be expecting a growing number of new students visiting our school… which you’re fully aware of, no doubt?”

“And your point is?” Snape asked.

“More students mean a demand for more teachers. You need an assistant, Mr. Snape.”

“… Out of the question,” Snape waved his wand making the tea set vanish. “I’m perfectly capable of performing my job as professor; I require no assistance from you.”

“Uh… perhaps you misunderstood,” Discord dusted himself. “I’m not asking to be your assistant nor am I asking you to get one. You are getting an assistant, whether you want one or not.”

Professor Snape glared at Discord, but somehow there was no room for argument with this mischievous creature.

“Seeing as how you refuse to take no for an answer, I’ll consider it to amuse you,” Snape spoke. “But you should know I have standards to meet. If this… assistant you recommend does not meet them, I will have them let go without hesitation.”

“Excellent!” Discord smiled. “You won’t be disappointed!”

With a snap of his finger, the fireplace suddenly lit up in a blazing green inferno. Instantaneously, a pony appeared covered in soot. Discord walked over to pick up said pony and dusted off all the soot until the pony itself was fully revealed.

A unicorn, white with a pastel mane color of purple, pink, and blue. Her mane and tail were curly, her eyes a lovely shade of blue. Her cutie mark was that of a pink bubbling potion in a beaker.

“This little darling is Potion Nova!” Discord introduced the unicorn. “A graduate of Princess Celestia’s School of Gifted Unicorns, long before Twilight even lost her first tooth. A potion master since the age of five with a bonafide degree to show for it!”

“Hi! I’m Potion Nova!” The unicorn smiled, shaking Snape’s hand. “Sweet Celestia, it’s nice to meet a new face!”

Professor Snape remained stone-faced, turning his eyes toward Discord, who merely beckoned him to interview the unicorn.

“Miss Potion Nova?” Snape began. “What would I get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?”

“That’s an easy one!” Potion Nova smiled. “You get the Draught of Living Death! Which is a powerful…”

“Where would you look if I asked you to find me a bezoar?” Snape continued.

“From the stomach of a goat!” Potion Nova answered. “And if I’m not mistaken, the stone itself is an antidote for most poisons?”

“Yes…” Snape raised an eyebrow, then continued. “What are the ingredients of a Polyjuice potion?”

“Let’s see…” Potion Nova began. “Lacewing flies, stewed for exactly 21 days, powdered bicorn horns, shredded boomslang skins, knotgrass, fluxweek picked at a full moon, and leeches… Oh! You need a hair from someone you want to impersonate.”

“Impressive…” Snape admitted slightly. “You know your potions, Mrs. Nova. But do you know how to use them? How many drops of Veritaserum is required for the drinker to spill out their darkest secrets?”

“Three!” Potion Nova answered proudly.

“Well, I see you two have formed a bond,” Discord chortled, preparing to leave. “Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’d best be off to prepare for my class. Discord out!”

With a snap of his fingers, Discord vanished in a flash of light leaving Snape to further test Potion Nova’s extensive knowledge… mostly to see if he could get the pony to make ‘one’ mistake.

Meanwhile, the Great Hall is alive with activity as lunch hour has commenced. Percy entered in the company of a Miss Penelope Clearwater, just as Nearly Headless Nick glided by.

“There’s Nearly Headless Nick!” Penelope pointed.

“Hello, Sir Nicholas,” Percy greeted.

“Hello, Percy,” Nick tipped his ‘head’. “Miss Clearwater.”

At the Gryffindor table, Hermoine has her nose buried in Gilderoy Lockhart’s Travels with Trolls. Ron tried running gobs of Spellotape over his broken wand to stick the pieces back together. The poor boy shook his head grimly, seeing the wand looked as though it had seen better days.

“Say it, I’m doomed,” Ron frowned.

“You’re doomed,” Harry told Ron sympathetically.

Sitting across the boys, one individual was having it worse with her head lying in a bowl of salad. Poor Sunset Shimmer had been wallowing in her sorrow for what felt like hours. Her pet gecko, Ray, nuzzles his head against her cheek trying to cheer his owner up. Harry, Ron, the Student Six, and especially the Cutie Mark Crusaders looked at the Jedi Sorceress with worry.

“How long has she been like that?” Gallus asked the crusaders.

“All morning,” Apple Bloom answered.

Sandbar blew a whistle, surprised over the revelation. Nevertheless, the Earth pony approached the solemn Jedi master.

“Hey… Sunset?” Sandbar reached out. “How are you feeling?”

“Uhhhhhh…” Sunset groaned in response.

“… Good talk,” Sandbar concluded.

“What’s going on here?”

Just then, Twilight Sparkle, along with the Mane Six and Spike, came over to check up on Sunset Shimmer.

“Poor Sunset’s still a little bummed…” Apple Bloom explained. “About you know what.”

Twilight and her friends exchanged looks, realizing the severity of the situation. Together, they approach Sunset Shimmer, with Twilight sitting by Sunset’s side.

“Sunset, are you okay?” Twilight asked.

Finally, Sunset Shimmer picked her head out of the salad as bits of lettuce still hung in her hair.

“Yes… I’m fine,” Sunset answered glumly. “Just… meditating.”

“You were?” Twilight nodded.

“In a bowl of salad?” Fluttershy pointed out innocently.

“It’s my stress salad, Fluttershy,” Sunset answered.

“Is this about what happened with the car and the whomping willow?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“No… I’ve ascended beyond nerves,” Sunset replied. “I’m just contemplating my untimely doom, all because I embarrassed Grandmaster Storm Shield, and Ben, even Sabine in front of the entire wizarding world! Back in Canterlot High, I was the top of my art class and a pretty good gamer. In those days, I almost thought I could be a game designer, creating artwork for games. Now I sit here knowing no one will ever let me live down the biggest mistakes of my life.

“Trying to murder Twilight Sparkle… TWICE, my past crimes as a Sith Lord, and on TOP OF ALL THAT… in cahoots with stealing a car, exposing the wizarding world to muggles, crashing into a Whomping Willow, and endangering five kids under my watch! HAVE I LEFT ANYTHING OUT?!”

“Uh…” Spike raised a claw.

“Please, don’t answer that Spike…”

“Okay.”

With a heavy sigh, Sunset Shimmer slammed her head back into her bowl of salad to wallow in her sorrows.

“Wow… that’s a lot when you say it all at once,” Pinkie Pie commented.

“She’s definitely got issues,” Rainbow Dash added.

“Girls, please!” Twilight begged, placing a hand on Sunset’s shoulder. “Look Sunset, if you’re really having a problem, I think we can…”

“Hiya Harry!”

Without warning, a flash of light nearly blinded Harry Potter and caught everyone’s attention. As Harry blinked his eyes, he found that the light and the excited voice came from a camera belonging to the hands of a rather small boy, a first year Gryffindor student excited to meet Harry Potter. This was…

“I’m Colin Creevey!” The boy introduced himself. “I’m in Gryffindor too!”

“Hello, Colin,” Harry greeted. “Nice to meet—”

“Say, do you think your friends here could take a photo of me and you, standing together?” Colin asked. “Y’know? To prove I met you? It’s for my dad. He’s a milkman, y’know, a Muggle, like all of our family’s been until me. No one knew all the odd stuff I could do was magic till we got my letter from Hogwarts. Everyone just thought I was mental.”

Harry merely glanced at Ron and Gallus; the former looked positively homicidal.

“Imagine that…” Ron commented.

“You’re not alone, kid,” Gallus commented. “It’s been a lot for us to take in as well—”

“Post is here!” Dean Thomas announced.

Mercifully, owls proceeded to stream into the Hall. One after another, the birds swoop gracefully down, clutching letters from home. Just then, an owl screech drew their attention.

“Ron, isn’t that your owl?” Smolder pointed out.

Everyone looked up to see Errol flying into the Great Hall… and plopped beak-first into a bowl of chips, right in front of Ron. The crash was so tremendous Sunset Shimmer bolted from her stupor, with Ray clinging onto her cheek. All the way from their tables, all the Slytherins, minus one Wallflower, laughed.

“Bloody bird’s a menace,” Ron groaned.

Ron reached over and took a damp red envelope from Errol, who immediately took off and flew away. The moment Ron eyed the envelope, he knew exactly what it was.

“Oh, no!” Ron moaned.

“What is it, Ron?” Sweetie Belle asked curiously.

“Heads up, everyone!” Seamus exclaimed. “Weasley’s got himself a Howler.”

Once more, the Slytherins burst out laughing over Ron’s misfortune.

“I don’t get it,” Apple Bloom scratched her head. “What’s a Howler?”

“Go on, Ron,” Neville beckoned. “I ignored one from my Gran once… and it was horrible.”

The Student Six gently patted Ron on the back, showing their support. The boy’s face was pale, and his hands were shaking. With the envelope in hand, he slowly opened it, and…

RONALD WEASLEY!!!

Mrs. Weasley’s voice thundered and shrieked, sending plates and spoons rattling. Everyone and every pony eyed the Howler widely, as Sunset Shimmer held onto Ray protectively between the cusp of her hands. Like a mother protecting her child from images not meant for innocent eyes, Sunset took the full blunt and watched as the envelope rearranged itself into a floating mouth.

HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CARE!” It howled on Weasley’s behalf. “I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSETED! YOUR FATHER’S NOW FACING AN INQUIRY AT WORK AND IT’S ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE, WE’LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME!

Scared out of his wits, all Ron could do was nod his head gingerly, while the Howler turned toward Ginny… but with a smile.

“Oh, and Ginny dear,” The howler spoke softly. “Congratulations on making Gryffindor. Your father and I are so proud!”

Ginny, sitting a bit apart from the others, looked up shyly, then returned to the small black book she was scribbling in. The CMC couldn’t help but notice that the girl appeared as though she’d rather crawl in someplace and die from the embarrassment of being praised. Meanwhile, Ron watched as the Howler turned its attention to him, stuck its tongue at him, and ripped itself to pieces before enduring the howls of laughter from the other house tables. Colin Creevy snapped a few photos, while the CMC remained wide-eyed.

“That’s ‘kind of’ a letter I would expect to get from Rarity for causing mischief,” Sweetie Belle spoke meekly.

“Least they didn’t mention our involvement with the car,” Apple Bloom told Sunset meekly.

“Great… I feel so much better…” Sunset spoke sarcastically.

“Look at it this way guys,” Scootaloo replied optimistically. “How much worse can things get?”

“I wouldn’t have said that…” Pinkie answered, singsong.

HEY! WAIT FOR ME!!!!

First days mark every opportunity to get kids on the right track, especially for a particular group who went through a most unfortunate circumstance just to attend Hogwarts. Amongst old and familiar faces, this is the feature where we are introduced to several new arrivals. New professors we haven't seen before (Including an assistant pony from that 'Pony Life' series some fans have either seen or never heard of), and even some new students, who's overall presence in the franchise in general depends on whether they are made for one-time appearances or scarcely heard of for the remainder. There was much to laugh about, there was much to feel pain for. The day is still young, and we know for certain that our heroes are in for more madness still to come.

Wow, so much happening all at once. And I was wondering when Potion Nova would show up.

Thanks for the latest post. I'll start with it first thing in the morning. Well, evening after I get back from work that is.

Famous last words, Scoots, famous last words.

“Look at it this way guys,” Scootaloo replied optimistically. “How much worse can things get?”

Really shouldn’t have said that Scoots.

So, Snape gets a new assistant (thanks to Discord), and Ron gets yelled at. Yikes!

11879247

Agreed with you on that, so much happening at once.

And yeah, nice to see Potion Nova showing up

Alright, first day of Hogwarts has officially begun!

Thanks for using my Quote Suggestions as well, Lord Enigma.

So their first day is off to a start with Crying Mandrakes and Ron in trouble with his parents. Even Sunset's stressed about making a bad first impression. And it looks like Snape's got himself a new assistant in the form of a pony that should've been in FIM instead of just in Pony Life

While I get the next commentaries posted, please enjoy Discord's first lesson – Meet the Bronies!

Wow, haven't seen that in a while.

oh boy, poor Ron.
However, nice going to Gallus with the mandrake.

Howlers are always good for a laugh but Mandrakes Will always be freaky in any media they appear in. At least they make good homemade grenades for storming Castle Dracula if anything. : p

Sadly never got into Pony Life as of now, let alone G5's side series, but this new assistant here seems interesting.

“Look at it this way guys,” Scootaloo replied optimistically. “How much worse can things get?”

Ya had to ask.

Expertly done my friend

in all fairness how do you expect Ron and harry to get to school walk?

awesome chapter mate keep it up can't wait for the next chapter:pinkiehappy::twilightsmile:

Shadow's Extras(Hogwarts)

After the ceremony, Phantom followed Carrie to the dorm, halfway there she saw Shadow, Taz and Lola, who is wearing a hood over her head, and called out to me.

Carrie:(yelled)"Mr Shadow".

Me:(turned and saw them)"Phantom, Carrie, where the heck were you guy last night, I was waiting for you guys at the Pub".

“Look at it this way guys,” Scootaloo replied optimistically. “How much worse can things get?”

Welcome everyone, i am Harmony Attenborough. He we find ourselves with the opportunity to witness the creature of Murphy. Such a deadly creature this one, ever on the prowl with it's ears at the ready, just waiting for the moment it hears it's prey utter the dreadful words. The words change depending on the situation, but the meaning is the same. Whether it be "What's the worst that could happen?" or "This can't possibly get any worse" or another variant, when these words are uttered Murphy will strike! And unleash it's deadly attack, the Murphy's Law, bringing misfortune and a worsening situation on the individual(s) who said it regardless if they are good or evil.

Wasn't she introduced in the first chapter in the extra cuts though? Potion Nova I mean. Confused at the moment.

11879292
Found some recipes to cook Mandrake:

11879597
Wow! Fancy that! Japanese Animes cooking is becoming a norm! These remind me of an anime where a dude's magic powers are "online grocery" and his cooking was so good he tamed a wolf familiar!

...And the foods look delicious too...

11879597
But seriously...

First off, Mandrakes can be cooked...with basilisk eggs?

Second off, that's a basilisk egg?

11879552
Me: "Sorry Shadow. We sorta got sidetracked. Also, Discord dragged me to Hogwarts against my will...also Carrie's been sorted into Hufflepuff. And I'm exhausted..."

Before we begin our commentaries, let's have some fun with Adagio as a warm-up for the big event!

(CA's Stay Gone parody)

Adagio Dazzle: (Singing) Welcome home
I'm gonna make you wish
That you'd stayed gone
Say hello
To a new status quo
Everyone knows that there's a brand new dawn
Turn the TV on!

Director: "Camera, speeds. Rolling in 3, 2..."

Adagio Dazzle: Hello there, Cinematic Adventurers! Your lovely, and ever so charming, and beautiful Adagio
Here talking about a certain washed-up has-been has been seen cavorting around town (Welcome to the show)
After a near three year absence
Did anybody miss her? (Welcome to the show)
Did anybody notice?
More on tonight's program!

So, Darth Seraphina is back in town
Why's she hangin' around?
What does that mean for your family?

Well handily, I've got good news
She's a loser, a fossil
And, I don't mean to sound hostile
But the SITH is a coward!

You can take that as gospel
Here to make up for her past? Impossible!
I'm trending, but she's hardly relevant

Stop giving her the time of day
Don't listen to a word she'd say
I hope she had a nice vacay
But she should've stayed away!

During this time, Phantom-Dragon had woken up from his nap to hear Adagio Dazzle badmouthing and dragging his bestie's name through the mud. So, he decided to take action, calling in Postwar and Arctic to get in on the action.

While she ditched her friends and hid in the Galaxy
We've moved on with our lives in the CA, see?
And because of Hasbro, her identity is Anon-a-Miss!

Phantom-Dragon: "Good morning, CA! Good to be back in business!

Yes, I know it's been a while since someone with respect and style treated Equestria and the Wizarding World to an original content
Cinematic Adventurers and bronies rejoice!
(Adagio Dazzle: Ugh! What a nerd)
Instead of a would-be bankrupt mediocre PegasiFan misspent
(Adagio Dazzle: Come on!)

Is Adagio truly as brilliant and beautiful she claims to be?
Flipping the script, from this and that
Is she hiding something?
(Adagio Dazzle: Ignore his commentaries!)
Every day, she can't seem to fix that bed hair the size of a wombat

Adagio Dazzle: You're looking at the one and only beauty!
He's the beast that's about to retire!

Let's begin
We're gonna make you wish that you stayed gone

Arctic: Is Adagio as beautiful as she purports? Or is based on her support? She’d be nothing without The other Dazzlings

((Adagio Dazzle: Oh, Please!)

And here’s the sugar on the cream, she’s just jealous of her own sister!

((Adagio Dazzle: Hold on!)

She knows it’s true, and now she’s all pissy, That’s the tea!

From the words of C3PO: "Oh dear, oh dear", for the love of Celestia dont jinx it CMC's, wonderful chapter XD

Postwar: She claims she's the big bad, but in truth, she's the big stunk of the franchise!!

(Adagio: What?)

She claims she's powerful, yet she's an even bigger control freak who does what she doesn't understand!!

(Adagio: Now see here!!)

And don't get me started on Aria, who's only ablaze, when her flatulence is set aflame

(Aria: What?!)

And she's always so prissy when she's angry, so all she does is cry like a big baby

(Aria: I'll show you!!)

The only thing that you two can show, is that you two are the biggest doofs and stooges of the show

11879680
Postwar: (On radio) Don't worry Shadow, we'll be there. Arctic and I have a meeting with Professor Dumbledor and Professor McGonigal to explain about Sunset's situation and why she's here, especially what we found out from Lucius, who no doubt that the Ministry also knows, despite what many had witnessed via from our colleagues.

Discord’s Cut

It was a gloomy day at a street called Spinner’s End.

Here, the street is lined with deserted brick houses and broken streetlamps, near a dirty river and an abandoned mill with a tall chimney.

In the shadows, barely illuminated by the fire in the fireplace, Potion Master, Severus Snape was reading the Daily Prophet when he heard a knocking at his door.

Without bothering to look up, the head of Slytherin ordered, “Show yourself, Discord.”

In a flash of light, stood the master of chaos, founder of his theater back home in Equestria, and self-proclaimed professor of Hufflepuff at Hogwarts.

“Well, is that anyway to welcome a guest?” Discord huffed. “I should be docking points from you, Mr. Snake-in-the-grass. Mr. Stick in the mud!”

“What do you want, Discord?” Snapes grumbled, wanting to just cut to the chase.

“Well, for starters, you might want to hire someone to clean this place up, and make it less…depressing? Because I’m like put-off by all this gloomy goth vibe you’ve got going!”

But Snapes remained stone-faced in the kooky draconequess’s antics.

“Fine. Have it your way, stone-face. But lucky for you, being the suave, the talented, and marvelous Hufflepuff Professor that I am, I am here to do you a favor.”

Snapes simply raised an eyebrow, “A favor?”

“Why of course!” Discord snapped his fingers and popped a table with tea cups and pots for himself and Snapes. “I suppose you know by now, that with the alliance of Equestria and the Wizarding World being renewed, plus a new alliance being forged with the Jedi from a Galaxy far, far away via Grand Master Storm Shield, that means we will be getting more new students to come to our school…which you are fully aware of no doubt?”

“And your point is?”

“More students means more teachers are demanded, and that means more for you to handle. You need an assistant!”

“…Out of the question,” Snape waved his wand and somehow made Discord’s tea sets disappear. “I am perfectly capable of doing my job as professor and I require no assistance.”

“Uh, perhaps you are misunderstanding,” Discord dusted himself. “I’m not asking you to get an assistant. You are getting an assistant, whether you want one or not.”

Professor Snape glared at Discord, until he finally spoke, “Seeing as how you won’t take no for answer, I’ll consider it to amuse you. But you should know that I have certain standards to meet. And if this…assistant you recommend does not meet them, then I will have to let them go, without hesitation.”

“Excellent!” Discord smiled. “Then you won’t be disappointed!”

With a snap of his finger, the fireplace suddenly lit up in a blazing green, and a pony appeared, covered in soots. Discord walked over to pick up the pony, dusting off her dusts to reveal she is a unicorn.

She is white with a pastel mane color of purple, pink and blue. Her mane and tail are curly. Her eyes are blue and her cutie mark is a pink bubbling potion in a beaker.

camo.fimfiction.net/R0bwXFJ-OlO7KdTlDh4ox_Fn6uit7zsunVVoU7ugCAY?url=https%3A%2F%2F1.bp.blogspot.com%2F-Vysao3sN378%2FYRly99uQEAI%2FAAAAAAADhpE%2FUafMIh8hxAkASiIasOrQVXzVL9BUGD_PQCLcBGAsYHQ%2Fs1024%2Flarge.png

“This little darling is Potion Nova!” Discord introduced the unicorn. “A graduate of Princess Celestia’s School of Gifted Unicorns, long before Twilight even lost her first tooth, a potion master since the age of 5, with a bonafide degree to show for it!”

“Hi! I’m Potion Nova!” Potion Nova smiled, walking up to shake hands with Snape. “Sweet Celestia, it’s so nice to meet a new face!”

Professor Snape remained stone-faced, turning his eyes to Discord, who beckoned him to interview the unicorn.

“Miss Potion Nova?” Snape began. “Tell me, what potion would you use to restore an individual who had been transfigured and cursed?”

“Oh that’s easy!” Potion Nova smiled. “You need the Mandrake Restorative Draught!”

“Ah...So you know this healing potion then? Then do you also know the prime ingredients needed to create such potion?”

“Sure do! It needs Mandrakes roots! But only the ones that are fully matured.”

"And what are the proper measures needed to handling such magical plants?"

"You need to wear earmuffs to protect your ears, because a mature mandrake's cry will kill you."

“And what are the ingredients of a polyjuice potion?”

“Uh, let’s see,” Potion Nova began, as she started to list a number of ingredients on her hooves.

“Lacewing flies, stewed for exactly 21 days! Powdered Bicorn horns, shredded boomslang skins, knotgrass, fluxweed picked at a full moon, and leeches. Oh! And a hair from someone you want to impersonate.”

“Impressive…” Snape admitted, but slightly. “You know your potions. But do you know how to use them? How many drops of Veritaserum is required for the drinker to spill out their darkest secrets?”

“Three drops!” Potion Nova answered proudly.

“Well, I see you two have formed a real bond,” Discord chortled, preparing to take his leave. “Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’d best be off to prepare for my class. Discord out!”

With a snap of his fingers, Discord vanished in a flash of light, leaving Snape with Potion Nova.

"Oooh!" Potion Nova exclaimed, looking at her new surrounding. "Oh my Faust! This place is filthy! It needs a lady's touch!"

In the first chapter of the story we were introduced to Potion Nova already. Someone want to explain this?

I saw an error that needs to be fixed.

From this:

HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CARE!” It howled on Weasley’s behalf. “I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSETED! YOUR FATHER’S NOW FACING AN INQUIRY AT WORK AND IT’S ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE, WE’LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME!

Into this:

HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CAR!” It howled on Weasley’s behalf. “I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSETED! YOUR FATHER’S NOW FACING AN INQUIRY AT WORK AND IT’S ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE, WE’LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME!

Funny enough, I listened to another parody of this, which ironically involved a Siren as well

Wow, that's definitely a new one.

Massager's log #15
Date: 4/16/24


The next morning, following last night’s incident with the Whomping Willow, all the students and staff awoke for the start of the new school year. By the time Harry Potter and friends parted ways with their fellow Gryffindors, the CMC made way to attend their first lesson of their first year while the Assistant Professors departed for their own lessons. As dawn shined upon Hogwarts Castle, the Whomping Willow sulked in the courtyard, with slings strung about its injured branches. Over the castle walls lay the exterior of Greenhouse Three, where the students hurried inside for the beginning of class.

Mr Squelch: " I guess Herbology is the first class. "

This was the class where the CMC would tackle their first Herbology assignment, a class taught by Professor Pomona Sprout. All the second year students consisted of a mix of Gryffindors and Slytherins also in attendance. The Gold Trio, including the Young Six, made their way inside waiting for both their Professor and assistant professor to arrive. Along the way, they decided to chat about their friends to pass the time. But of course, the biggest subject was recent events that had apparently spread across the school.

“Detention. On the first day?” Neville began.

“That must be some kind of record,” Seamus joked.

Fleck: " It was intentional you guys."

Tubby Nugget: " Neville better watch it if he doesn't want to be turned stone again."

Suddenly, in the nick of time, Professor Sprout, a squat little witch, arrived to set the new school year off at a bright, fresh start. But she was not alone, as the assistant professor this class revealed herself… Apple Bloom’s own sister herself, Applejack.

“Morning everyone!” Sprout called out, tapping the pots with her wand. “Good morning, everyone!”

“Good morning, Professor Sprout!” The students greeted in unison.

“Morning’, y’all!” Applejack greeted.

“Morning, Professor Applejack!”

“Welcome to Greenhouse Three, Second Years,” Professor Sprout began. “Now gather round, everyone.”

Dodger: " Herbology was my favorite subject, the plants liked me and they would protect me from occasional bullies."

Myself: " Oh right, I have brought some special earmuffs for this particular plant. "

The witch proceeded to beckon the students around a gathering of pots.

“Today, we’re going to re-pot Mandrakes. Now, who here can tell us the properties of the Mandrake root?”

“Yes, Hermoine Granger?” Applejack acknowledged.

“Mandrake, or Mandragora, is used to return those who have been transfigured or petrified to their original state,” Hermoine explained. “It’s also quite dangerous. The Mandrake’s cry is fatal to anyone who hears it.”

“Excellent!” Sprout nodded. “Ten points to Gryffindor.”

Dodger: " Mandrakes! ( to Massager) Oh yeah, give me those muffs."

All the Gryffindors smiled for Hermoine, the girl giving them a stellar start. Meanwhile, all the Slytherins eyed them with envy.

“Now, as our Mandrakes are only seedlings, their cries won’t kill you yet,” Sprout explained. “However, they will knock you out for several hours—”

“Hold on, Professor Sprout,” Applejack interrupted, catching Ocellus. “Yes, Ocellus. Do you have a question?”

“How dangerous is a young Mandrake’s cry?” Ocellus asked nervously.

“Excellent question!” Applejack smiled with approval. “Like what Hermoine said, their cries won’t kill you… yet. Which is why we’ve given each of you a pair of earmuffs for auditory protection. And now, we’re about to find out just how loud is a young Mandrake’s cry. I think it’s time, Partner.

“I agree, Applejack,” Sprout nodded. “Students, could you all please put them on right away? Quickly. Flaps tight and watch us closely.”

Everyone puts on their earmuffs, well almost everyone."

Tubby Nugget: " This is silly, we're in a theater. The noise won't effect us."

While everyone gets their earmuffs on, Scootaloo turns to the side and her snickering causes her friends to look where she’s pointing. Frowning, Ron had gotten a bright pink fluffy pair. The girls couldn’t help but deem it funny, if only to take their minds off their upcoming detention. Seeing the class ready, Professor Sprout and Applejack led the class further down the garden area.

“All eyes and ears here, every pony and everyone,” Applejack beckoned. “No talking. Professor Sprout?”


Nodding in confirmation, the two processors proceed to grab two Mandrakes while the stout witch continues the lecture.

“You grasp your Mandrake firmly,” Sprout instructed. “You pull it sharply out of the pot—”

The professors proceed to grasp one of the tufty plants before them… and pull. Gasps erupt as eyes get a glimpse of the mandrakes. Instead of roots, they were small, muddy, and extremely ugly babies popping out of the Earth, leaves growing right out of their heads and their cries giving off an ear piercing pitch. Some of the students tried to cover their ears, while most were cringing over the noise but thankfully their professors knew what they were doing.

Eventually, Sprout and Applejack proceed to place both Mandrakes into their own separate pots.

“And now you dunk it down in the other pot and pour a little sprinkling of soil to keep them warm!” Sprout practically shouted.

The professors plunge the bawling creatures deep into the pots and proceed to sprinkle some soil along the little beasts. All of a sudden, Nevill and Sandbar’s eyes roll back, and they instantly faint in shock.

The Mandrake’s cry was heard loudly in the theater that everyone pressed down on their earmuffs, Tubby joined Neville and Sandbar in their fainting.

As the professors remove their earmuffs, everyone, save Neville and Sandbar, follow suit. The professors sigh unamused seeing the boys stretched along the ground.

“Hm… looks as though Mr. Longbottom and Sandbar’s been neglecting their earmuffs,” Sprout observed.

While the Slytherins smirked, shaking their heads in amusement, Seamus leaned over to study the unconscious fellows.

“No, ma’ams,” Seamus corrected. “They just fainted.”

“Very well,” Sprout nodded understandingly. “We’ll just leave them there then.”

Seamus looks toward the professors then back toward the boys with disbelief as their mentors proceeded to continue their lecture on the proper method of Mandrake planting.

“Right, on we go,” Applejack continued. “Four to a tray, plenty of pots to go round. Remember: Grasp your Mandrake and pull it up.”

Fleck: " Should we leave Tubby there too?"

Zatanna: " He didn't want to listen. "

One by one, every student (Minus Neville and Sandbar) pulled their Mandrakes out of the pot. The entire student body cringed in disgust or in pain over the noise these young Mandrakes were making. Draco decided to play with one of the Mandrakes by tickling the creature, even attempting to put his finger into its mouth. The action caused the Mandrake to bite his finger while Draco pulled it out and immediately placed the plant back in the pot.

Gallus laughed at Draco’s misfortune, as the boy quickly removed Gallus’ earmuff with one hand and grabbed the Mandrake with another, holding it so close to the griffin’s ear making the young one cringe in pain over the screeching ringing through his eardrum.

“Ooh… a funny man, huh?” Gallus nodded.

Gallus proceeded to grab his own Mandrake and leaned him toward Draco’s nose, and the creature clenched his teeth along the bridge. Draco screamed in agony as his goons, Crabbe and Goyle, tried to pry the beast off of their leader. These shenanigans caused a few of Gallus’s friends to laugh in amusement, even a particular pony in the corner couldn’t help but giggle slightly at the scene.

Next

“No… I’ve ascended beyond nerves,” Sunset replied. “I’m just contemplating my untimely doom, all because I embarrassed Grandmaster Storm Shield, and Ben, even Sabine in front of the entire wizarding world! Back in Canterlot High, I was the top of my art class and a pretty good gamer. In those days, I almost thought I could be a game designer, creating artwork for games.

Uh, didn't you once complained and said in despair that you had no idea what you would do with your life after "Return of the Jedi"?, when you wanted to stay behind to make amends?

Either it's my imagination, or someone has short-term memory loss. Or in their frustrations, forget what you said long ago.

I should know, happened to me once.

At the Gryffindor table, Hermoine has her nose buried in Gilderoy Lockhart’s Travels with Trolls. Ron tried running gobs of Spellotape over his broken wand to stick the pieces back together. The poor boy shook his head grimly, seeing the wand looked as though it had seen better days.

Spellotape?

...

...

SPELLOTAPE?!:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh: Oh man, I never heard anything so ridiculous in all my life.

The next morning, following last night’s incident with the Whomping Willow, all the students and staff awoke for the start of the new school year. By the time Harry Potter and friends parted ways with their fellow Gryffindors, the CMC made way to attend their first lesson of their first year while the Assistant Professors departed for their own lessons.

The Gold Trio, including the Young Six, made their way inside waiting for both their Professor and assistant professor to arrive. Along the way, they decided to chat about their friends to pass the time. But of course, the biggest subject was recent events that had apparently spread across the school.

Ezra Bridger: What kind of place is that?

Katochi: Looks like a place where you would study anything plant related.

C-3PO: I've never seen flora like those before.

Petro: Maybe we'll also get a chance to learn new species of plants from other worlds.

Luke Skywalker: That would come in handy during Jedi Training.

“Detention. On the first day?” Neville began.

“That must be some kind of record,” Seamus joked.

“We’re just lucky that’s all we got,” Sweetie Belle sighed.

“You’d think these guys would mind their own business,” Scootaloo pouted.

“Settle down, girls,” Apple Bloom advised. “Let’s just try to get through today.”

Leia Organa: Oh the poor girls.

Lando Calrissian: Seems their late night capade has been catching up with them.

Han Solo: But they didn't have any other choice, and plus the magic in the car acted on its own.

Zatt: Still, can't always walk away from anything.

Suddenly, in the nick of time, Professor Sprout, a squat little witch, arrived to set the new school year off at a bright, fresh start. But she was not alone, as the assistant professor this class revealed herself… Apple Bloom’s own sister herself, Applejack.

“Morning everyone!” Sprout called out, tapping the pots with her wand. “Good morning, everyone!”

“Good morning, Professor Sprout!” The students greeted in unison.

“Morning’, y’all!” Applejack greeted.

“Morning, Professor Applejack!”

“Welcome to Greenhouse Three, Second Years,” Professor Sprout began. “Now gather round, everyone.”

Byph: Hey, is that Applejack?

Ganodi: What's she doing there?

Galen Marek: From what Sunset told me, Applejack is a farmer. And though she works with Apples, they're also partially plants, so it would be up in her field.

“Today, we’re going to re-pot Mandrakes. Now, who here can tell us the properties of the Mandrake root?”

“Yes, Hermoine Granger?” Applejack acknowledged.

“Mandrake, or Mandragora, is used to return those who have been transfigured or petrified to their original state,” Hermoine explained. “It’s also quite dangerous. The Mandrake’s cry is fatal to anyone who hears it.”

“I agree, Applejack,” Sprout nodded. “Students, could you all please put them on right away? Quickly. Flaps tight and watch us closely.”

Katochi: Wow, those plants are really dangerous?

Mando: When you're out in the galaxy, you'll tend to bump into a lot of flora and fauna in the galaxy. Some are harmless, others are dangerous.

Luke Skywalker: Indeed, which is why I've been trying to teach them to beware of plants.

Ben Solo: Wasn't very easy either.

While everyone gets their earmuffs on, Scootaloo turns to the side and her snickering causes her friends to look where she’s pointing. Frowning, Ron had gotten a bright pink fluffy pair. The girls couldn’t help but deem it funny, if only to take their minds off their upcoming detention.

“No, ma’ams,” Seamus corrected. “They just fainted.”

“Very well,” Sprout nodded understandingly. “We’ll just leave them there then.”

Everyone was silent after watching that.

Ezra Bridger: Wow, they weren't kidding of those being dangerous.

Kyle Katarn: And I thought the stuff we use to make healing stems and use in bacta tanks are dangerous.

Leia Organa: I felt the same way, but then I realized that if you're out there with that much danger, then it's best to know every detail before going out in the field.

One by one, every student (Minus Neville and Sandbar) pulled their Mandrakes out of the pot. The entire student body cringed in disgust or in pain over the noise these young Mandrakes were making. Draco decided to play with one of the Mandrakes by tickling the creature, even attempting to put his finger into its mouth.

These shenanigans caused a few of Gallus’s friends to laugh in amusement, even a particular pony in the corner couldn’t help but giggle slightly at the scene.

Eventually, the bell rang loudly, signally the end of the lesson. Soon everyone scurried out of the room, as quickly as possible, all heading towards the Great Hall. Of course, just when they think the day has reached its end, what they didn’t know is that this day has only just begun.

Everyone couldn't help but laught at that.

Ben Solo: Serves Dragon Mouthful right.

Deep within the lower dungeon of Hogwarts, barely illuminated by the fire in the fireplace, the Potion Master Severus Snape was sitting in his office reading the Daily Prophet. Just then, a knocking upon his door interrupted his reading and yet he didn’t even bother to look up.

“Show yourself, Discord,” The head of Slytherin ordered.

In a flash of light, the master of chaos, found of his theater in Equestria, and self-proclaimed Hufflepuff professor appeared before the unamused potions master.

“Is that anyway to welcome a guest?” Discord huffed. “I should be docking points from you, Mr. Snake-in-the-grass. No, no… that’s too polite… Mr. Stick in the mud! Oh yeah, that’s a good one!”

“What do you want, Discord?” Snape grumbled.

“Well, for starters, you might want to hire someone to clean this place up,” Discord observed. “Honestly, the vibes here are… depressing. I’m put-off by this gloomy goth phase you’ve got going on.”

Snape, on the other hand, remained stone-faced despite the kooky draconequss’s antics.

“Fine. Have it your way, stone-face,” Discord mocked. “Luckily for you, being the suave, talented, and marvelous Hufflepuff Professor I am, I’m offering to do you a favor. Free of charge.”

Byph: Ugh, sometimes I wonder why he's even around.

Katochi: I wonder the same thing.

Luke Skywalker: Everyone has a role to play, no matter how un-bearing that sometimes could be.

“I suppose you know by now, the alliance of Equestria and the Wizarding World has just been renewed,” Discord explained. “There’s even this new alliance forged between the Jedi from some galaxy far, far away via Grand Master Storm Shield. In other words, we’ll be expecting a growing number of new students visiting our school… which you’re fully aware of, no doubt?”

“And your point is?” Snape asked.

“More students mean a demand for more teachers. You need an assistant, Mr. Snape.”

“… Out of the question,” Snape waved his wand making the tea set vanish. “I’m perfectly capable of performing my job as professor; I require no assistance from you.”

“Uh… perhaps you misunderstood,” Discord dusted himself. “I’m not asking to be your assistant nor am I asking you to get one. You are getting an assistant, whether you want one or not.”

Professor Snape glared at Discord, but somehow there was no room for argument with this mischievous creature.

“Seeing as how you refuse to take no for an answer, I’ll consider it to amuse you,” Snape spoke. “But you should know I have standards to meet. If this… assistant you recommend does not meet them, I will have them let go without hesitation.”

Zatt: Oh boy, who did they get that would be a match for Snape?

Galen Marek: Hopefully not someone as stone faced as him.

With a snap of his finger, the fireplace suddenly lit up in a blazing green inferno. Instantaneously, a pony appeared covered in soot. Discord walked over to pick up said pony and dusted off all the soot until the pony itself was fully revealed.

A unicorn, white with a pastel mane color of purple, pink, and blue. Her mane and tail were curly, her eyes a lovely shade of blue. Her cutie mark was that of a pink bubbling potion in a beaker.

“This little darling is Potion Nova!” Discord introduced the unicorn. “A graduate of Princess Celestia’s School of Gifted Unicorns, long before Twilight even lost her first tooth. A potion master since the age of five with a bonafide degree to show for it!”

“Hi! I’m Potion Nova!” The unicorn smiled, shaking Snape’s hand. “Sweet Celestia, it’s nice to meet a new face!”

Ben Solo: Oooh, she's pretty.

Ganodi: Huh, she looks nice.

Katochi: And very lovely.

Professor Snape remained stone-faced, turning his eyes toward Discord, who merely beckoned him to interview the unicorn.

“Miss Potion Nova?” Snape began. “What would I get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?”

“That’s an easy one!” Potion Nova smiled. “You get the Draught of Living Death! Which is a powerful…”

“Where would you look if I asked you to find me a bezoar?” Snape continued.

“From the stomach of a goat!” Potion Nova answered. “And if I’m not mistaken, the stone itself is an antidote for most poisons?”

“Yes…” Snape raised an eyebrow, then continued. “What are the ingredients of a Polyjuice potion?”

“Let’s see…” Potion Nova began. “Lacewing flies, stewed for exactly 21 days, powdered bicorn horns, shredded boomslang skins, knotgrass, fluxweek picked at a full moon, and leeches… Oh! You need a hair from someone you want to impersonate.”

“Impressive…” Snape admitted slightly. “You know your potions, Mrs. Nova. But do you know how to use them? How many drops of Veritaserum is required for the drinker to spill out their darkest secrets?”

“Three!” Potion Nova answered proudly.

Lando Calrissian: Wow, she knows her potions.

Han Solo: Where was she when we needed help transferring Coaxium?

Leia Organa: Or when we needed to work on creating cures for different poisons.

Luke Skywalker: I'm sure we can ask Princess Celestia, if she'll allow it.

At the Gryffindor table, Hermoine has her nose buried in Gilderoy Lockhart’s Travels with Trolls. Ron tried running gobs of Spellotape over his broken wand to stick the pieces back together. The poor boy shook his head grimly, seeing the wand looked as though it had seen better days.

“Say it, I’m doomed,” Ron frowned.

“You’re doomed,” Harry told Ron sympathetically.

Galen Marek: Uh, I don't think that works for fixing wands.

Leia Organa: What is that?

C-3PO: Oh, Postwar told me about it. He told me it's called, Tape. The type you would use to fix a few things, even if they are temporary. But he also told me that those don't fix wands, as he speaks from experience.

Sitting across the boys, one individual was having it worse with her head lying in a bowl of salad. Poor Sunset Shimmer had been wallowing in her sorrow for what felt like hours. Her pet gecko, Ray, nuzzles his head against her cheek trying to cheer his owner up. Harry, Ron, the Student Six, and especially the Cutie Mark Crusaders looked at the Jedi Sorceress with worry.

“How long has she been like that?” Gallus asked the crusaders.

“All morning,” Apple Bloom answered.

Sandbar blew a whistle, surprised over the revelation. Nevertheless, the Earth pony approached the solemn Jedi master.

“Hey… Sunset?” Sandbar reached out. “How are you feeling?”

“Uhhhhhh…” Sunset groaned in response.

“… Good talk,” Sandbar concluded.

Ben Solo: Master Sunset?

Galen Marek: Oh no.

Leia Organa: Seems like what happened to her seems to be having an effect on her.

Luke Skywalker: She's not supposed to be in despair, she's supposed to keep calm and not let things affect her.

Han Solo: Clearly, she still needs a lot of work.

Twilight and her friends exchanged looks, realizing the severity of the situation. Together, they approach Sunset Shimmer, with Twilight sitting by Sunset’s side.

“Sunset, are you okay?” Twilight asked.

Finally, Sunset Shimmer picked her head out of the salad as bits of lettuce still hung in her hair.

“Yes… I’m fine,” Sunset answered glumly. “Just… meditating.”

“You were?” Twilight nodded.

“In a bowl of salad?” Fluttershy pointed out innocently.

“It’s my stress salad, Fluttershy,” Sunset answered.

“Is this about what happened with the car and the whomping willow?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“No… I’ve ascended beyond nerves,” Sunset replied. “I’m just contemplating my untimely doom, all because I embarrassed Grandmaster Storm Shield, and Ben, even Sabine in front of the entire wizarding world! Back in Canterlot High, I was the top of my art class and a pretty good gamer. In those days, I almost thought I could be a game designer, creating artwork for games. Now I sit here knowing no one will ever let me live down the biggest mistakes of my life.

“Trying to murder Twilight Sparkle… TWICE, my past crimes as a Sith Lord, and on TOP OF ALL THAT… in cahoots with stealing a car, exposing the wizarding world to muggles, crashing into a Whomping Willow, and endangering five kids under my watch! HAVE I LEFT ANYTHING OUT?!”

C-3PO: Well you did blindly believe the Emperor's lies and joined him on your own free will when you thought Twilight abandoned you.

All: 3PO!!!!!!

Ezra Bridger: Too soon, rustbucket.

“She’s definitely got issues,” Rainbow Dash added.

“Girls, please!” Twilight begged, placing a hand on Sunset’s shoulder. “Look Sunset, if you’re really having a problem, I think we can…”

“Hiya Harry!”

Without warning, a flash of light nearly blinded Harry Potter and caught everyone’s attention. As Harry blinked his eyes, he found that the light and the excited voice came from a camera belonging to the hands of a rather small boy, a first year Gryffindor student excited to meet Harry Potter. This was…

Galen Marek: Why is it that every time whenever they try to help her, or talk to her, something like this has to happen?

Ben Solo: As Master Postwar would say, sometimes fate has a way to fart in your direction.'

Everyone gave Ben awkward looks.

Leia Organa: I think I need to have a word with him about his choice of words when it comes to lessons.

“Ron, isn’t that your owl?” Smolder pointed out.

Everyone looked up to see Errol flying into the Great Hall… and plopped beak-first into a bowl of chips, right in front of Ron. The crash was so tremendous Sunset Shimmer bolted from her stupor, with Ray clinging onto her cheek. All the way from their tables, all the Slytherins, minus one Wallflower, laughed.

“Bloody bird’s a menace,” Ron groaned.

Ron reached over and took a damp red envelope from Errol, who immediately took off and flew away. The moment Ron eyed the envelope, he knew exactly what it was.

“Oh, no!” Ron moaned.

“What is it, Ron?” Sweetie Belle asked curiously.

“Heads up, everyone!” Seamus exclaimed. “Weasley’s got himself a Howler.”

Once more, the Slytherins burst out laughing over Ron’s misfortune.

“I don’t get it,” Apple Bloom scratched her head. “What’s a Howler?”

“Go on, Ron,” Neville beckoned. “I ignored one from my Gran once… and it was horrible.”

Petro: A howler?

Zatt: What the heck is a Howler?

Mando: Something tells me we're going to find out.

RONALD WEASLEY!!!

Mrs. Weasley’s voice thundered and shrieked, sending plates and spoons rattling. Everyone and every pony eyed the Howler widely, as Sunset Shimmer held onto Ray protectively between the cusp of her hands. Like a mother protecting her child from images not meant for innocent eyes, Sunset took the full blunt and watched as the envelope rearranged itself into a floating mouth.

HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CARE!” It howled on Weasley’s behalf. “I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSETED! YOUR FATHER’S NOW FACING AN INQUIRY AT WORK AND IT’S ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE, WE’LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME!

Scared out of his wits, all Ron could do was nod his head gingerly, while the Howler turned toward Ginny… but with a smile.

“Oh, and Ginny dear,” The howler spoke softly. “Congratulations on making Gryffindor. Your father and I are so proud!”

Ginny, sitting a bit apart from the others, looked up shyly, then returned to the small black book she was scribbling in. The CMC couldn’t help but notice that the girl appeared as though she’d rather crawl in someplace and die from the embarrassment of being praised. Meanwhile, Ron watched as the Howler turned its attention to him, stuck its tongue at him, and ripped itself to pieces before enduring the howls of laughter from the other house tables. Colin Creevy snapped a few photos, while the CMC remained wide-eyed.

Everyone was in dead silence over it.

Ezra Bridger: Well...that explains a lot.

Kyle Katarn: Glad Jan didn't have anything like that, otherwise I'd lose my hearing for a week.

“That’s ‘kind of’ a letter I would expect to get from Rarity for causing mischief,” Sweetie Belle spoke meekly.

“Least they didn’t mention our involvement with the car,” Apple Bloom told Sunset meekly.

“Great… I feel so much better…” Sunset spoke sarcastically.

“Look at it this way guys,” Scootaloo replied optimistically. “How much worse can things get?”

“I wouldn’t have said that…” Pinkie answered, singsong.

Ezra Bridger: Least it's not the "I got a bad feeling about this" line. We tend to say that a lot.

Everyone voiced in agreement by that statement.

Postwar and Arctic Behind the scenes 1

The next morning, following last night’s incident with the Whomping Willow, all the students and staff awoke for the start of the new school year. By the time Harry Potter and friends parted ways with their fellow Gryffindors, the CMC made way to attend their first lesson of their first year while the Assistant Professors departed for their own lessons. As dawn shined upon Hogwarts Castle, the Whomping Willow sulked in the courtyard, with slings strung about its injured branches.

Meanwhile, in the Office of Professor Dumbledore, with Professor McGonigal by his side, both Postwar and Arctic explained the situation to both the Professors.

Postwar: And that's the whole story. *Takes a sip of tea*

McGonigal: Oh, the poor dear. She has been through a lot.

Arctic: (Dialogue)

McGonigal: But still, to think all this started was because of her temper.

Dumbledore: Minerva, if there is one thing we've all learned, is that in every new generation, there are always those with tempers.

Arctic: (Dialogue)

Postwar: And if anything does happen, I'll take full responsibility for it.

McGonigal: You taking responsibility?

Arctic: (Dialogue)

Dumbledore: And yet...you feel like she cannot do this?

Postwar: Look, Sunset is capable like twilight, but she can't, or won't find balance within herself, for it constantly eludes her whilst she's also being willful at the same time. She wasn't even supposed to be at the galaxy. She spent such a long time there, and she has forgotten who she is. It may not look that way, but she does. And like I said, ever since I started to train her, I felt afraid for her and I'm responsible for her too. But she's also still afraid to go home and face everyone, even when they knew it wasn't her fault because she was deceived. They saw it first-hand. But...she doesn't think that.

Arctic: (Dialogue)

Dumbledore: *notices something* And I see...you know something.

Postwar: Lucius Malfoy, as you know of him, knows of Sunset's old Sith name, which means the Ministry knows as well.

Dumbledore: Ah yes, I've heard of that as well.

Postwar: But they have to realize that it wasn't her fault.

Dumbledore: Indeed. However, others do no see it that way, considering that she joined out of her own free will. Because as you said, she is not from that universe, as she does not know the dangers. For just because one knows of their existence, does not mean that they are safe. For there are many unknown dangers that lurk around the corner, for which one is not prepared.

Postwar: Still...I wish I could change their minds.

Dumbledore: In time, they will see it. But rest assured, with your help, we can assure everything goes well.

Postwar: I'll hold you to that, otherwise it'll be worse than last year.

Dumbledore: *suspects something* Is there something...you wish to tell me?

Postwar: No sir, nothing.

After staring at one another for a moment, Arctic showed a bit of nervousness, considering he heard that before.

Dumbledore: Very well now, off you go.

The two of them soon left, with McGonigal standing next to Albus:

McGonigal: I surely hope they help that poor girl. For trauma what she encountered is not something one can move forward from.

Dumbledore: In time, she will. But until then, all we have to do is be patient with her.

McGonigal: If the Ministry does not intervene that is.

Dumbledore: One can only hope.

At the same time, Arctic and Postwar walks down the hall:

Postwar: I think he suspects something.

Arctic: (Dialogue)

Postwar: I'm not sure. But we'd better check in at the Ministry. Afterwards, we'll try to secure the school to ensure things go smoothly from there.

Postwar and Arctic Behind the scenes 2

“That’s ‘kind of’ a letter I would expect to get from Rarity for causing mischief,” Sweetie Belle spoke meekly.

“Least they didn’t mention our involvement with the car,” Apple Bloom told Sunset meekly.

“Great… I feel so much better…” Sunset spoke sarcastically.

“Look at it this way guys,” Scootaloo replied optimistically. “How much worse can things get?”

“I wouldn’t have said that…” Pinkie answered, singsong.

Suddenly, they heard a whistle They saw both Postwar and Arctic at the door, and signaling them to come to them. The Mane 6, the Young Six, the CMC, and Sunset stood up and went over. However, feeling curious, Harry, Ron, and Hermoine went over there as well, wondering what this was about. They followed them outside the building, where they could talk in private:
Postwar: First of, how did this go today?

Apple Bloom: Oh, it went great, we learned a lot at Herbology class.

Scootaloo: Although it doesn't help the fact that other students are still talking about it.

Arctic: (Dialogue)

Postwar then noticed Sunset looking distressed, then walks over to her and hugs her, whilst gently stroking her hair:

Sunset Shimmer: What are you doing?

Postwar: Calming you down. *pulls out a locket* This will help.

Everyone was a little surprised by the tune, even the creatures liked it, with the Hogwarts Trio also liking the tune. After the song was over, Postwar held Sunset by the shoulders and looked at her:

Postwar: Feeling better?

Sunset Shimmer: Yes, much better, thank you.

Arctic: (dialogue)

Postwar: Gift from a friend. *Turns to the others* Anyway, sorry we took so long, we had to explain everything to Dumbledore and McGonigal. And Minverva promises to try to cut Sunset some slack.

Twilight: That's good to hear.

Arctic: (Dialogue)

Sweetie Belle: Bad news? What do you mean?

Both Postwar and Arctic looked at one another, then to the others:

Postwar: It's not just Lucius who knows about Sunset's old Sith name. Everyone in the Ministry knows about it.

All: What?!!

Arctic: (explains the situation)

Sunset Shimmer: Well that's just great!! Now the Ministry is going to gun for me if I do something wrong!!

Postwar: It won't come to that, we'll make sure of it. Dumbledore also gives us support in order to help you.

Pinkie Pie: But wait, how did they know about Sunset's past?

Postwar: Even I'm still baffled about it.

Arctic: (dialogue)

Postwar: *Looks at Ron* And sorry about your dad, Ron. But rest assured, I was able to help a bit.

Ron: What?

Postwar: I told the Ministry that he had it under control, he didn't know something like this would happen. And said it was a security breach. Unfortunately, Lucius can be tenacious, so the only thing they could give him is a month's suspension from work. And rest assured, I was also able to pay the amount that the Ministry wanted to pay too.

Hermoine: Where did you get the money?

Postwar: When you travel as long as we have, you tend to save up a lot along the way.

Arctic: (dialogue)

Postwar: Plus, thankfully, we were able to remove Harry, Sunset, and the CMC from the list of ones who took the car. Unfortunately we couldn't remove Ron's in time.

Ron: But why didn't you tell my mum about it?

Arctic: (dialogue)

Ron: But what?

The two of them looked at one another, then to the kids.

Postwar: Your mom can be very, very, scary.

Arctic: (dialogue)

The two of them shuddered, which surprised the others:

Apple Bloom: You know, given how we've seen her and heard her from the Howler.

Applejack: We can see why y'all are nervous around her.

Postwar: Also, Ron, why the heck did you use tape for your wand? You know that's not going to fix it, right?

Ron: Well what else am I supposed to do?

Arctic: (talks about Olivander's and Hogsmeade)

Harry Potter: Hogsmeade?

Postwar: Oh, it's a little wizarding town just beyond the hill whilst you walk past the Forbidden Forest. Anything you're looking for, books, plants, ingredients and so on, that's the town to be. Unfortunately, wizards under the age of fourteen aren't allowed out there unless they have permission.

Twilight: Right, no permission, no field trips.

Postwar: That's right.

Arctic: (talked about there used to be a wand shop, but it was shut down more than 70 years ago)

Rarity: Shut down?

Gallus: Why did they shut it down?

Postwar: A while back, the town was under attack by a dragon pack.

Hermoine: Oh, I heard about it. A dragon pack attacked there for some reason, and the villagers thought that an Ollivander did something to upset the dragons, considering he also uses dragon heartstrings for the wands, so they kicked him out. Turns out a group of bandits took shelter there after they stole the dragon eggs. After they were caught, the Ollivander family refused to open their shop back there.

Silverstream: How come?

Postwar: Because as it turns out, if anyone disrespects or unfairly blame an Olivander for a fault, they get slandered for life. Hogsmeade suffered for a while. Though they're no longer slandered, the Olivanders refused to open their shop again.

Ron: Well that's a bummer.

Arctic: (dialogue)

Postwar: And Sunset?

Sunset Shimmer: Yes?

Suddenly Postwar points a finger at her whilst his arm was in a V formation, which confused her:

Postwar: Remember? Learn to stay calm and be mindful of your feelings. I know how easily stressed and frustrated you get, but whatever happened that night, you need to drop it and put a pin on it. Focus on what's at hand, and don't let others get to you. Remember what we also talked about.

Arctic: (Dialogue)

Postwar: So if you're troubled, talk to someone before judging. Is that understood?

Sunset Shimmer: Of c...

Suddenly Postwar grabbed her arm and made her look at him straight in the eyes, which sort of was a bit frightful.

Postwar: Do. You. Under. Stand?

Sunset nodded frantically, understanding the message. Postwar's face then softened.

Postwar: And hey, you know I'm only doing this because I'm looking out for you, right?

Sunset Shimmer: *sighs* I know.

Postwar: *places hand on Sunset's forehead* And if you need help, look to your friends for guidance. So don't let anyone get to you, especially Rainbow.

Rainbow Dash: Me?!! What did I do?!

Postwar: No offense Rainbow, but your mouth has a habit of running faster than your brain.

Arctic: (Brings up the topic with Rarity, and endangering the students with Applejack)

Postwar: Cause if you don't. Well...let's just say words haven't been invented yet. Got it?

Rainbow also frantically nodded.

Postwar: Alright then, of you lot go now.

Arctic: (dialogue)

The two of them walked away whilst the rest continued with their day.

Arctic: (in concern)

Postwar: I know, I know, but sometimes one needs a little tough love. Plus you know how Rainbow tends to get when she brings up sensitive topics.

Arctic: (dialogue)

Postwar: I'll go check the Quidditch grounds, you check the grounds where they study the magical beasts.

Arctic: (Dialogue)

The two of them split up in order to continue with their duties.

My guess is that it was an idea before the Galaxy. That went down the drain after the end.

Equestrian Girls, Discord’s Wizarding Cinematic Adventures Theater

The next morning, following last night’s incident with the Whomping Willow, all the students and staff awoke for the start of the new school year. By the time Harry Potter and friends parted ways with their fellow Gryffindors, the CMC made way to attend their first lesson of their first year while the Assistant Professors departed for their own lessons. As dawn shined upon Hogwarts Castle, the Whomping Willow sulked in the courtyard, with slings strung about its injured branches. Over the castle walls lay the exterior of Greenhouse Three, where the students hurried inside for the beginning of class.

This was the class where the CMC would tackle their first Herbology assignment, a class taught by Professor Pomona Sprout. All the second year students consisted of a mix of Gryffindors and Slytherins also in attendance. The Gold Trio, including the Young Six, made their way inside waiting for both their Professor and assistant professor to arrive. Along the way, they decided to chat about their friends to pass the time. But of course, the biggest subject was recent events that had apparently spread across the school.

Ezra Bridger: What kind of place is that?

Katochi: Looks like a place where you would study anything plant related.

C-3PO: I've never seen flora like those before.

Sci-Twi: I wonder what they’re like? And what makes them so special here?

Petro: Maybe we'll also get a chance to learn new species of plants from other worlds.

Luke Skywalker: That would come in handy during Jedi Training.

“Detention. On the first day?” Neville began.

“That must be some kind of record,” Seamus joked.

“We’re just lucky that’s all we got,” Sweetie Belle sighed.

“You’d think these guys would mind their own business,” Scootaloo pouted.

“Settle down, girls,” Apple Bloom advised. “Let’s just try to get through today.”

Leia Organa: Oh the poor girls.

EQG! Rainbow Dash: Yeah, detention can really suck.

Lando Calrissian: Seems their late night capade has been catching up with them.

Han Solo: But they didn't have any other choice, and plus the magic in the car acted on its own.

Zatt: Still, can't always walk away from anything.

EQG! Applejack: You can say that again.

Suddenly, in the nick of time, Professor Sprout, a squat little witch, arrived to set the new school year off at a bright, fresh start. But she was not alone, as the assistant professor this class revealed herself… Apple Bloom’s own sister herself, Applejack.

“Morning everyone!” Sprout called out, tapping the pots with her wand. “Good morning, everyone!”

“Good morning, Professor Sprout!” The students greeted in unison.

“Morning’, y’all!” Applejack greeted.

“Morning, Professor Applejack!”

“Welcome to Greenhouse Three, Second Years,” Professor Sprout began. “Now gather round, everyone.”

Byph: Hey, is that Applejack?

Ganodi: What's she doing there?

Galen Marek: From what Sunset told me, Applejack is a farmer. And though she works with Apples, they're also partially plants, so it would be up in her field.

EQG! Pinkie Pie: Which makes her the perfect teacher for this subject (she mentioned with a happy grin)

“Today, we’re going to re-pot Mandrakes. Now, who here can tell us the properties of the Mandrake root?”

“Yes, Hermoine Granger?” Applejack acknowledged.

“Mandrake, or Mandragora, is used to return those who have been transfigured or petrified to their original state,” Hermoine explained. “It’s also quite dangerous. The Mandrake’s cry is fatal to anyone who hears it.”

“Excellent!” Sprout nodded. “Ten points to Gryffindor.”

All the Gryffindors smiled for Hermoine, the girl giving them a stellar start. Meanwhile, all the Slytherins eyed them with envy.

“Now, as our Mandrakes are only seedlings, their cries won’t kill you yet,” Sprout explained. “However, they will knock you out for several hours—”

“Hold on, Professor Sprout,” Applejack interrupted, catching Ocellus. “Yes, Ocellus. Do you have a question?”

“How dangerous is a young Mandrake’s cry?” Ocellus asked nervously.

“Excellent question!” Applejack smiled with approval. “Like what Hermoine said, their cries won’t kill you… yet. Which is why we’ve given each of you a pair of earmuffs for auditory protection. And now, we’re about to find out just how loud is a young Mandrake’s cry. I think it’s time, Partner.

“I agree, Applejack,” Sprout nodded. “Students, could you all please put them on right away? Quickly. Flaps tight and watch us closely.”

Katochi: Wow, those plants are really dangerous?

Sci-Twi: Many plants can be really dangerous, even if you’re unfamiliar with it, there is always a chance that can be highly dangerous.

Mando: When you're out in the galaxy, you'll tend to bump into a lot of flora and fauna in the galaxy. Some are harmless, others are dangerous.

Luke Skywalker: Indeed, which is why I've been trying to teach them to beware of plants.

Ben Solo: Wasn't very easy either.

While everyone gets their earmuffs on, Scootaloo turns to the side and her snickering causes her friends to look where she’s pointing. Frowning, Ron had gotten a bright pink fluffy pair. The girls couldn’t help but deem it funny, if only to take their minds off their upcoming detention. Seeing the class ready, Professor Sprout and Applejack led the class further down the garden area.

“All eyes and ears here, every pony and everyone,” Applejack beckoned. “No talking. Professor Sprout?”

Nodding in confirmation, the two processors proceed to grab two Mandrakes while the stout witch continues the lecture.

“You grasp your Mandrake firmly,” Sprout instructed. “You pull it sharply out of the pot—”

The professors proceed to grasp one of the tufty plants before them… and pull. Gasps erupt as eyes get a glimpse of the mandrakes. Instead of roots, they were small, muddy, and extremely ugly babies popping out of the Earth, leaves growing right out of their heads and their cries giving off an ear piercing pitch. Some of the students tried to cover their ears, while most were cringing over the noise but thankfully their professors knew what they were doing.

Eventually, Sprout and Applejack proceed to place both Mandrakes into their own separate pots.

“And now you dunk it down in the other pot and pour a little sprinkling of soil to keep them warm!” Sprout practically shouted.

The professors plunge the bawling creatures deep into the pots and proceed to sprinkle some soil along the little beasts. All of a sudden, Nevill and Sandbar’s eyes roll back, and they instantly faint in shock. As the professors remove their earmuffs, everyone, save Neville and Sandbar, follow suit. The professors sigh unamused seeing the boys stretched along the ground.

“Hm… looks as though Mr. Longbottom and Sandbar’s been neglecting their earmuffs,” Sprout observed.

While the Slytherins smirked, shaking their heads in amusement, Seamus leaned over to study the unconscious fellows.

“No, ma’ams,” Seamus corrected. “They just fainted.”

“Very well,” Sprout nodded understandingly. “We’ll just leave them there then.”

Everyone was silent after watching that.

Ezra Bridger: Wow, they weren't kidding of those being dangerous.

EQG! Fluttershy: (would nod her head a bit slowly) I-I would stay away from something like that..

EQG! Rarity: I agree, I wouldn’t wanna go anywhere near something like that.

Kyle Katarn: And I thought the stuff we use to make healing stems and use in bacta tanks are dangerous.

Leia Organa: I felt the same way, but then I realized that if you're out there with that much danger, then it's best to know every detail before going out in the field.

One by one, every student (Minus Neville and Sandbar) pulled their Mandrakes out of the pot. The entire student body cringed in disgust or in pain over the noise these young Mandrakes were making. Draco decided to play with one of the Mandrakes by tickling the creature, even attempting to put his finger into its mouth. The action caused the Mandrake to bite his finger while Draco pulled it out and immediately placed the plant back in the pot.

Gallus laughed at Draco’s misfortune, as the boy quickly removed Gallus’ earmuff with one hand and grabbed the Mandrake with another, holding it so close to the griffin’s ear making the young one cringe in pain over the screeching ringing through his eardrum.

“Ooh… a funny man, huh?” Gallus nodded.

Gallus proceeded to grab his own Mandrake and leaned him toward Draco’s nose, and the creature clenched his teeth along the bridge. Draco screamed in agony as his goons, Crabbe and Goyle, tried to pry the beast off of their leader. These shenanigans caused a few of Gallus’s friends to laugh in amusement, even a particular pony in the corner couldn’t help but giggle slightly at the scene.

Eventually, the bell rang loudly, signally the end of the lesson. Soon everyone scurried out of the room, as quickly as possible, all heading towards the Great Hall. Of course, just when they think the day has reached its end, what they didn’t know is that this day has only just begun.

Everyone couldn't help but laught at that.

Ben Solo: Serves Dragon Mouthful right.

EQG! Rainbow Dash: Yeah! The jerk had it coming!

Deep within the lower dungeon of Hogwarts, barely illuminated by the fire in the fireplace, the Potion Master Severus Snape was sitting in his office reading the Daily Prophet. Just then, a knocking upon his door interrupted his reading and yet he didn’t even bother to look up.

“Show yourself, Discord,” The head of Slytherin ordered.

In a flash of light, the master of chaos, found of his theater in Equestria, and self-proclaimed Hufflepuff professor appeared before the unamused potions master.

“Is that anyway to welcome a guest?” Discord huffed. “I should be docking points from you, Mr. Snake-in-the-grass. No, no… that’s too polite… Mr. Stick in the mud! Oh yeah, that’s a good one!”

“What do you want, Discord?” Snape grumbled.

“Well, for starters, you might want to hire someone to clean this place up,” Discord observed. “Honestly, the vibes here are… depressing. I’m put-off by this gloomy goth phase you’ve got going on.”

Snape, on the other hand, remained stone-faced despite the kooky draconequss’s antics.

“Fine. Have it your way, stone-face,” Discord mocked. “Luckily for you, being the suave, talented, and marvelous Hufflepuff Professor I am, I’m offering to do you a favor. Free of charge.”

Byph: Ugh, sometimes I wonder why he's even around.

Katochi: I wonder the same thing.

Luke Skywalker: Everyone has a role to play, no matter how un-bearing that sometimes could be.

EQG! Fluttershy: H-He isn’t that bad. (She would say softly whispering to herself

“I suppose you know by now, the alliance of Equestria and the Wizarding World has just been renewed,” Discord explained. “There’s even this new alliance forged between the Jedi from some galaxy far, far away via Grand Master Storm Shield. In other words, we’ll be expecting a growing number of new students visiting our school… which you’re fully aware of, no doubt?”

“And your point is?” Snape asked.

“More students mean a demand for moreteachers. You need an assistant, Mr. Snape.”

“… Out of the question,” Snape waved his wand making the tea set vanish. “I’m perfectly capable of performing my job as professor; I require no assistance from you.”

“Uh… perhaps you misunderstood,” Discord dusted himself. “I’m not asking to be yourassistant nor am I asking you to get one. You are getting an assistant, whether you want one or not.”

Professor Snape glared at Discord, but somehow there was no room for argument with this mischievous creature.

“Seeing as how you refuse to take no for an answer, I’ll consider it to amuse you,” Snape spoke. “But you should know I have standards to meet. If this… assistant you recommend does not meet them, I will have them let go without hesitation.”

Zatt: Oh boy, who did they get that would be a match for Snape?

Galen Marek: Hopefully not someone as stone faced as him.

EQG! Pinkie Pie: This is Discord we’re talking about, maybe we’re in for a surprise on who he has in mind.

With a snap of his finger, the fireplace suddenly lit up in a blazing green inferno. Instantaneously, a pony appeared covered in soot. Discord walked over to pick up said pony and dusted off all the soot until the pony itself was fully revealed.

A unicorn, white with a pastel mane color of purple, pink, and blue. Her mane and tail were curly, her eyes a lovely shade of blue. Her cutie mark was that of a pink bubbling potion in a beaker.

camo.fimfiction.net/-hFCX2qfvzp0Y2ir3LkAk-poiLEoALpbncf7l-a9mEw?url=https%3A%2F%2F1.bp.blogspot.com%2F-Vysao3sN378%2FYRly99uQEAI%2FAAAAAAADhpE%2FUafMIh8hxAkASiIasOrQVXzVL9BUGD_PQCLcBGAsYHQ%2Fs1024%2Flarge.png

“This little darling is Potion Nova!” Discord introduced the unicorn. “A graduate of Princess Celestia’s School of Gifted Unicorns, long before Twilight even lost her first tooth. A potion master since the age of five with a bonafide degree to show for it!”

“Hi! I’m Potion Nova!” The unicorn smiled, shaking Snape’s hand. “Sweet Celestia, it’s nice to meet a new face!”

Ben Solo: Oooh, she's pretty.

Ganodi: Huh, she looks nice.

Katochi: And very lovely.

EQG! Rarity: Not to mention, very beautiful! Oh, I would love to meet her.

Professor Snape remained stone-faced, turning his eyes toward Discord, who merely beckoned him to interview the unicorn.

“Miss Potion Nova?” Snape began. “What would I get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?”

“That’s an easy one!” Potion Nova smiled. “You get the Draught of Living Death! Which is a powerful…”

“Where would you look if I asked you to find me a bezoar?” Snape continued.

“From the stomach of a goat!” Potion Nova answered. “And if I’m not mistaken, the stone itself is an antidote for most poisons?”

“Yes…” Snape raised an eyebrow, then continued. “What are the ingredients of a Polyjuice potion?”

“Let’s see…” Potion Nova began. “Lacewing flies, stewed for exactly 21 days, powdered bicorn horns, shredded boomslang skins, knotgrass, fluxweek picked at a full moon, and leeches… Oh! You need a hair from someone you want to impersonate.”

“Impressive…” Snape admitted slightly. “You know your potions, Mrs. Nova. But do you know how to use them? How many drops of Veritaserum is required for the drinker to spill out their darkest secrets?”

“Three!” Potion Nova answered proudly.

Lando Calrissian: Wow, she knows her potions.

Sci-Twi: And looks like he is impressed by her, so far a first impression is going great.

Han Solo: Where was she when we needed help transferring Coaxium?

Leia Organa: Or when we needed to work on creating cures for different poisons.

Luke Skywalker: I'm sure we can ask Princess Celestia, if she'll allow it.

At the Gryffindor table, Hermoine has her nose buried in Gilderoy Lockhart’s Travels with Trolls. Ron tried running gobs of Spellotape over his broken wand to stick the pieces back together. The poor boy shook his head grimly, seeing the wand looked as though it had seen better days.

“Say it, I’m doomed,” Ron frowned.

“You’re doomed,” Harry told Ron sympathetically.

Galen Marek: Uh, I don't think that works for fixing wands.

EQG! Rainbow Dash: Yeah, think you gonna need something else there buddy.

Leia Organa: What is that?

C-3PO: Oh, Postwar told me about it. He told me it's called, Tape. The type you would use to fix a few things, even if they are temporary. But he also told me that those don't fix wands, as he speaks from experience.

Sitting across the boys, one individual was having it worse with her head lying in a bowl of salad. Poor Sunset Shimmer had been wallowing in her sorrow for what felt like hours. Her pet gecko, Ray, nuzzles his head against her cheek trying to cheer his owner up. Harry, Ron, the Student Six, and especially the Cutie Mark Crusaders looked at the Jedi Sorceress with worry.

“How long has she been like that?” Gallus asked the crusaders.

“All morning,” Apple Bloom answered.

Sandbar blew a whistle, surprised over the revelation. Nevertheless, the Earth pony approached the solemn Jedi master.

“Hey… Sunset?” Sandbar reached out. “How are you feeling?”

“Uhhhhhh…” Sunset groaned in response.

“… Good talk,” Sandbar concluded.

Ben Solo: Master Sunset?

Galen Marek: Oh no.

Leia Organa: Seems like what happened to her seems to be having an effect on her.

Luke Skywalker: She's not supposed to be in despair, she's supposed to keep calm and not let things affect her.

Han Solo: Clearly, she still needs a lot of work.

The Rainbooms look said and worried seeing their friend current situation right now.

EQG! Pinkie Pie: Poor Sunset…(she said sadly)

Twilight and her friends exchanged looks, realizing the severity of the situation. Together, they approach Sunset Shimmer, with Twilight sitting by Sunset’s side.

“Sunset, are you okay?” Twilight asked.

Finally, Sunset Shimmer picked her head out of the salad as bits of lettuce still hung in her hair.

“Yes… I’m fine,” Sunset answered glumly. “Just… meditating.”

“You were?” Twilight nodded.

“In a bowl of salad?” Fluttershy pointed out innocently.

“It’s my stress salad, Fluttershy,” Sunset answered.

“Is this about what happened with the car and the whomping willow?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“No… I’ve ascended beyond nerves,” Sunset replied. “I’m just contemplating my untimely doom, all because I embarrassed Grandmaster Storm Shield, and Ben, even Sabine in front of the entire wizarding world! Back in Canterlot High, I was the top of my art class and a pretty good gamer. In those days, I almost thought I could be a game designer, creating artwork for games. Now I sit here knowing no one will ever let me live down the biggest mistakes of my life.

“Trying to murder Twilight Sparkle… TWICE, my past crimes as a Sith Lord, and on TOP OF ALL THAT… in cahoots with stealing a car, exposing the wizarding world to muggles, crashing into a Whomping Willow, and endangering five kids under my watch! HAVE I LEFT ANYTHING OUT?!”

C-3PO: Well you did blindly believe the Emperor's lies and joined him on your own free will when you thought Twilight abandoned you.

All: 3PO!!!!!!

Ezra Bridger: Too soon, rustbucket.

EQG! Rainbow Dash: Yeah, way too soon buddy!

EQG! Applejack: Especially when she is already not feeling the best. (She would mention and glared at 3PO)

“She’s definitely got issues,” Rainbow Dash added.

“Girls, please!” Twilight begged, placing a hand on Sunset’s shoulder. “Look Sunset, if you’re really having a problem, I think we can…”

“Hiya Harry!”

Without warning, a flash of light nearly blinded Harry Potter and caught everyone’s attention. As Harry blinked his eyes, he found that the light and the excited voice came from a camera belonging to the hands of a rather small boy, a first year Gryffindor student excited to meet Harry Potter. This was…

Galen Marek: Why is it that every time whenever they try to help her, or talk to her, something like this has to happen?

Ben Solo: As Master Postwar would say, sometimes fate has a way to fart in your direction.'

Everyone gave Ben awkward looks.

Leia Organa: I think I need to have a word with him about his choice of words when it comes to lessons.

Sci-Twi: Yeah…and it would have to be a REALLY long talk.

“Ron, isn’t that your owl?” Smolder pointed out.

Everyone looked up to see Errol flying into the Great Hall… and plopped beak-first into a bowl of chips, right in front of Ron. The crash was so tremendous Sunset Shimmer bolted from her stupor, with Ray clinging onto her cheek. All the way from their tables, all the Slytherins, minus one Wallflower, laughed.

“Bloody bird’s a menace,” Ron groaned.

Ron reached over and took a damp red envelope from Errol, who immediately took off and flew away. The moment Ron eyed the envelope, he knew exactly what it was.

“Oh, no!” Ron moaned.

“What is it, Ron?” Sweetie Belle asked curiously.

“Heads up, everyone!” Seamus exclaimed. “Weasley’s got himself a Howler.”

Once more, the Slytherins burst out laughing over Ron’s misfortune.

“I don’t get it,” Apple Bloom scratched her head. “What’s a Howler?”

“Go on, Ron,” Neville beckoned. “I ignored one from my Gran once… and it was horrible.”

Petro: A howler?

Zatt: What the heck is a Howler?

Mando: Something tells me we're going to find out.

RONALD WEASLEY!!!

Mrs. Weasley’s voice thundered and shrieked, sending plates and spoons rattling. Everyone and every pony eyed the Howler widely, as Sunset Shimmer held onto Ray protectively between the cusp of her hands. Like a mother protecting her child from images not meant for innocent eyes, Sunset took the full blunt and watched as the envelope rearranged itself into a floating mouth.

HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CARE!” It howled on Weasley’s behalf. “I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSETED! YOUR FATHER’S NOW FACING AN INQUIRY AT WORK AND IT’S ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE, WE’LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME!

Scared out of his wits, all Ron could do was nod his head gingerly, while the Howler turned toward Ginny… but with a smile.

“Oh, and Ginny dear,” The howler spoke softly. “Congratulations on making Gryffindor. Your father and I are so proud!”

Ginny, sitting a bit apart from the others, looked up shyly, then returned to the small black book she was scribbling in. The CMC couldn’t help but notice that the girl appeared as though she’d rather crawl in someplace and die from the embarrassment of being praised. Meanwhile, Ron watched as the Howler turned its attention to him, stuck its tongue at him, and ripped itself to pieces before enduring the howls of laughter from the other house tables. Colin Creevy snapped a few photos, while the CMC remained wide-eyed.

Everyone was in dead silence over it.

Ezra Bridger: Well...that explains a lot.

EQG! Applejack: Eeyup..you can say that again.

EQG! Rainbow Dash: Really does explains so much why it’s called that.

Kyle Katarn: Glad Jan didn't have anything like that, otherwise I'd lose my hearing for a week.

“That’s ‘kind of’ a letter I would expect to get from Rarity for causing mischief,” Sweetie Belle spoke meekly.

“Least they didn’t mention our involvement with the car,” Apple Bloom told Sunset meekly.

“Great… I feel so much better…” Sunset spoke sarcastically.

“Look at it this way guys,” Scootaloo replied optimistically. “How much worse can things get?”

“I wouldn’t have said that…” Pinkie answered, singsong.

Ezra Bridger: Least it's not the "I got a bad feeling about this" line. We tend to say that a lot.

Everyone voiced in agreement by that statement.

EQG! Pinkie Pie: Yeah! Because we all know that’s tempting fate for saying that.

Postwar and Arctic Behind the scenes 1

The next morning, following last night’s incident with the Whomping Willow, all the students and staff awoke for the start of the new school year. By the time Harry Potter and friends parted ways with their fellow Gryffindors, the CMC made way to attend their first lesson of their first year while the Assistant Professors departed for their own lessons. As dawn shined upon Hogwarts Castle, the Whomping Willow sulked in the courtyard, with slings strung about its injured branches.

Meanwhile, in the Office of Professor Dumbledore, with Professor McGonigal by his side, both Postwar and Arctic explained the situation to both the Professors.

Postwar: And that's the whole story. *Takes a sip of tea*

McGonigal: Oh, the poor dear. She has been through a lot.

Arctic: Yeah, she has been having it rough ever since that day.

McGonigal: But still, to think all this started was because of her temper.

Dumbledore: Minerva, if there is one thing we've all learned, is that in every new generation, there are always those with tempers.

Arctic: Which is why we’re hoping that, while she’s hear that temper of hers can her controlled.

Postwar: And if anything does happen, I'll take full responsibility for it.

McGonigal: You taking responsibility?

Arctic: You see, Postwar here been getting close to Sunset the most. His being doing all he can to help her in whatever way he can so she can be someone great and capable…but (he begins to say and turns to Postwar slightly)

Dumbledore: And yet...you feel like she cannot do this?

Postwar: Look, Sunset is capable like twilight, but she can't, or won't find balance within herself, for it constantly eludes her whilst she's also being willful at the same time. She wasn't even supposed to be at the galaxy. She spent such a long time there, and she has forgotten who she is. It may not look that way, but she does. And like I said, ever since I started to train her, I felt afraid for her and I'm responsible for her too. But she's also still afraid to go home and face everyone, even when they knew it wasn't her fault because she was deceived. They saw it first-hand. But...she doesn't think that.

Arctic: Even when she’s been told many times , she still felt guilty for it all. And we worry that it could end up worse for her if she doesn’t get help.

Dumbledore: *notices something* And I see...you know something.

Postwar: Lucius Malfoy, as you know of him, knows of Sunset's old Sith name, which means the Ministry knows as well.

Dumbledore: Ah yes, I've heard of that as well.

Postwar: But they have to realize that it wasn't her fault.

Dumbledore: Indeed. However, others do no see it that way, considering that she joined out of her own free will. Because as you said, she is not from that universe, as she does not know the dangers. For just because one knows of their existence, does not mean that they are safe. For there are many unknown dangers that lurk around the corner, for which one is not prepared.

Postwar: Still...I wish I could change their minds.

Dumbledore: In time, they will see it. But rest assured, with your help, we can assure everything goes well.

Postwar: I'll hold you to that, otherwise it'll be worse than last year.

Dumbledore: *suspects something* Is there something...you wish to tell me?

Postwar: No sir, nothing.

After staring at one another for a moment, Arctic showed a bit of nervousness, considering he heard that before.

Dumbledore: Very well now, off you go.

The two of them soon left, with McGonigal standing next to Albus:

McGonigal: I surely hope they help that poor girl. For trauma what she encountered is not something one can move forward from.

Dumbledore: In time, she will. But until then, all we have to do is be patient with her.

McGonigal: If the Ministry does not intervene that is.

Dumbledore: One can only hope.

At the same time, Arctic and Postwar walks down the hall:

Postwar: I think he suspects something.

Arctic: Yeah, I noticed that as well. (He mentioned looking over at Postwar a bit) What do you think he could suspect? You think it’s something we should worry about?

Postwar: I'm not sure. But we'd better check in at the Ministry. Afterwards, we'll try to secure the school to ensure things go smoothly from there.

Postwar and Arctic Behind the scenes 2

“That’s ‘kind of’ a letter I would expect to get from Rarity for causing mischief,” Sweetie Belle spoke meekly.

“Least they didn’t mention our involvement with the car,” Apple Bloom told Sunset meekly.

“Great… I feel so much better…” Sunset spoke sarcastically.

“Look at it this way guys,” Scootaloo replied optimistically. “How much worse can things get?”

“I wouldn’t have said that…” Pinkie answered, singsong.

Suddenly, they heard a whistle They saw both Postwar and Arctic at the door, and signaling them to come to them. The Mane 6, the Young Six, the CMC, and Sunset stood up and went over. However, feeling curious, Harry, Ron, and Hermoine went over there as well, wondering what this was about. They followed them outside the building, where they could talk in private:

Postwar: First of, how did this go today?

Apple Bloom: Oh, it went great, we learned a lot at Herbology class.

Scootaloo: Although it doesn't help the fact that other students are still talking about it.

Arctic: Yeah, we might’ve noticed that ourselves (he mentioned)

Postwar then noticed Sunset looking distressed, then walks over to her and hugs her, whilst gently stroking her hair:

Sunset Shimmer: What are you doing?

Postwar: Calming you down. *pulls out a locket* This will help.

Everyone was a little surprised by the tune, even the creatures liked it, with the Hogwarts Trio also liking the tune. After the song was over, Postwar held Sunset by the shoulders and looked at her:

Postwar: Feeling better?

Sunset Shimmer: Yes, much better, thank you.

Arctic: Nice locket, Post. Where did you get it from? (He asked him)

Postwar: Gift from a friend. *Turns to the others* Anyway, sorry we took so long, we had to explain everything to Dumbledore and McGonigal. And Minverva promises to try to cut Sunset some slack.

Twilight: That's good to hear.

Arctic: Yeah, though unfortunately…we have some bad news as well.

Sweetie Belle: Bad news? What do you mean?

Both Postwar and Arctic looked at one another, then to the others:

Postwar: It's not just Lucius who knows about Sunset's old Sith name. Everyone in the Ministry knows about it.

All: What?!!

Arctic: While they did understand the situation of it. However, they mentioned others do not see it that way, considering..well, that she joined on your own free will Sunset.

Sunset Shimmer: Well that's just great!! Now the Ministry is going to gun for me if I do something wrong!!

Postwar: It won't come to that, we'll make sure of it. Dumbledore also gives us support in order to help you.

Pinkie Pie: But wait, how did they know about Sunset's past?

Postwar: Even I'm still baffled about it.

Arctic: Same here, and that is something we’re trying to figure out ourselves

Postwar: *Looks at Ron* And sorry about your dad, Ron. But rest assured, I was able to help a bit.

Ron: What?

Postwar: I told the Ministry that he had it under control, he didn't know something like this would happen. And said it was a security breach. Unfortunately, Lucius can be tenacious, so the only thing they could give him is a month's suspension from work. And rest assured, I was also able to pay the amount that the Ministry wanted to pay too.

Hermoine: Where did you get the money?

Postwar: When you travel as long as we have, you tend to save up a lot along the way.

Arctic: Yeah, and as you can tell, it really pays off well when we need it.

Postwar: Plus, thankfully, we were able to remove Harry, Sunset, and the CMC from the list of ones who took the car. Unfortunately we couldn't remove Ron's in time.

Ron: But why didn't you tell my mum about it?

Arctic: Well you see, we would do that..but…(he begins to say before getting a bit nervous)

Ron: But what?

The two of them looked at one another, then to the kids.

Postwar: Your mom can be very, very, scary.

Arctic: Yeah, and we REALLY don’t wanna get on her bad side, especially because of what she could do.

The two of them shuddered, which surprised the others:

Apple Bloom: You know, given how we've seen her and heard her from the Howler.

Applejack: We can see why y'all are nervous around her.

Postwar: Also, Ron, why the heck did you use tape for your wand? You know that's not going to fix it, right?

Ron: Well what else am I supposed to do?

Arctic: Well, you could always go to Olivander's at Hogsmeade

Harry Potter: Hogsmeade?

Postwar: Oh, it's a little wizarding town just beyond the hill whilst you walk past the Forbidden Forest. Anything you're looking for, books, plants, ingredients and so on, that's the town to be. Unfortunately, wizards under the age of fourteen aren't allowed out there unless they have permission.

Twilight: Right, no permission, no field trips.

Postwar: That's right.

Arctic: There is another wand shop that you could’ve possibly gone too, but it was shut down more than 70 years ago.

Rarity: Shut down?

Gallus: Why did they shut it down?

Postwar: A while back, the town was under attack by a dragon pack.

Hermoine: Oh, I heard about it. A dragon pack attacked there for some reason, and the villagers thought that an Ollivander did something to upset the dragons, considering he also uses dragon heartstrings for the wands, so they kicked him out. Turns out a group of bandits took shelter there after they stole the dragon eggs. After they were caught, the Ollivander family refused to open their shop back there.

Silverstream: How come?

Postwar: Because as it turns out, if anyone disrespects or unfairly blame an Olivander for a fault, they get slandered for life. Hogsmeade suffered for a while. Though they're no longer slandered, the Olivanders refused to open their shop again.

Ron: Well that's a bummer.

Arctic: Yeah, it really is, though we do hope things will work out for you Ron.

Postwar: And Sunset?

Sunset Shimmer: Yes?

Suddenly Postwar points a finger at her whilst his arm was in a V formation, which confused her:

Postwar: Remember? Learn to stay calm and be mindful of your feelings. I know how easily stressed and frustrated you get, but whatever happened that night, you need to drop it and put a pin on it. Focus on what's at hand, and don't let others get to you. Remember what we also talked about.

Arctic: His right, Sunset. He really wants what is best for you and to remind you that you’re not alone.

Postwar: So if you're troubled, talk to someone before judging. Is that understood?

Sunset Shimmer: Of c...

Suddenly Postwar grabbed her arm and made her look at him straight in the eyes, which sort of was a bit frightful.

Postwar: Do. You. Under. Stand?

Sunset nodded frantically, understanding the message. Postwar's face then softened.

Postwar: And hey, you know I'm only doing this because I'm looking out for you, right?

Sunset Shimmer: *sighs* I know.

Postwar: *places hand on Sunset's forehead* And if you need help, look to your friends for guidance. So don't let anyone get to you, especially Rainbow.

Rainbow Dash: Me?!! What did I do?!

Postwar: No offense Rainbow, but your mouth has a habit of running faster than your brain.

Arctic: He does have a point, there was that one time with Rarity, and don’t get us started with endangering students with Applejack.

Postwar: Cause if you don't. Well...let's just say words haven't been invented yet. Got it?

Rainbow also frantically nodded.

Postwar: Alright then, of you lot go now.

Arctic: We have some other stuff to do, and remember try too keep out of trouble.

The two of them walked away whilst the rest continued with their day.

Arctic: You sure you weren’t being a bit hard? I know you’re worried but could’ve done that a little better. (He said with concern)

Postwar: I know, I know, but sometimes one needs a little tough love. Plus you know how Rainbow tends to get when she brings up sensitive topics.

Arctic: Yeah, I guess you’re right about that. (He begins to say before looking over) So, what is our next move?

Postwar: I'll go check the Quidditch grounds, you check the grounds where they study the magical beasts.

Arctic: Got it, meet up with you later.

The two of them split up in order to continue with their duties.
