> Princesses of Power > by BronyBoy98 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Darla, the First One spaceship was moving across the cosmos with The Best Friend Squad inside of the ship. After defeating Horde Prime as She-Ra, Adora decided explore more of the universe and bring magic to places that had lost it. Adora's friends joined her, they would never let her go alone to places unknown. Bow and Glimmer were on the Command Deck talking. Bow was in the captain's chair piloting the ship while Glimmer stood beside his chair. "How long can Adora sleep for?" said Bow looking at the Command Deck exit door. Bow was a young man with dark skin and short black hair. He wore gold and white armor on his upper body with blue pants. Bow was a skilled archer and had developed unique arrows that did different things. "I don't think she's even sleeping." Said Glimmer. Glimmer was the Queen of Bright Moon. She was also skilled with magic, she could teleport and create blasts of energy that could incapacitate someone or just light up a room. Glimmer and Bow had been friends for a long time and recently decided to be something more. "Maybe Adora is having one of her She-Ra visions." said Bow shrugging. "After we kicked Horde Prime's butt, I don't think so." said Glimmer. "Come to think of it," said Bow, "I don't think I've seen anybody up at all." "It's too quiet in here, I wonder if Darla can play music." said Glimmer. "I do not recognize the word "music", please define." said Darla. Darla was what Entrapta, another one of Adora's friends had named the spaceship. Over the times they had used the ship, Entrapta had made upgrades to make the ship more sophisticated. The doors leading outside the Command Deck opened and a big lady with pincers and a scorpion tail entered with a horse with a horn and wings. "Hey Scorpia, hey Swift Wind." said Glimmer with with a wave. "Morning guys." said the horse named Swift Wind. "Hey Y'all" said Scorpia, the lady with pincers returning the wave. "Is Adora still asleep?" asked Swift Wind. "Yea, it's weird, she normally doesn't sleep for this long, and we're in space." said Glimmer throwing her hands up. "I knocked on Catra's door and didn't get any reply, she must be too sound asleep to hear anything." said Scorpia. Scorpia was a big strong woman with short white hair and wore red armor. She also had big pincers for hands and a scorpion's tail that was used to incapacitate people. She looked intimidating and used to be a member of the evil Horde, an empire bent on conquering different lands; but she was actually the biggest sweetheart. She was nice to everybody and was hardly mean. "Maybe she's having a She-Ra vision or somethin' " said Swift Wind. "Told you." said Bow with a smile. "We don't know for sure if she's having a vision" said Glimmer. Swift Wind was Adora's horse, even though he always said he's his own horse. He used to be a normal horse until Adora accidentally transformed him with her magic into a big tall stallion with a horn and big colorful wings. Suddenly a loud blaring filled the deck while a red light flashed. "What's going on?" said Glimmer. "The ship's getting a bad reading. I can't tell what it is." said Bow. "If this alarm doesn't wake Adora up, I don't know what will." said Glimmer annoyingly. Adora looked around the area she was in. It appeared she was in a dark cave. "Hello?" Adora called out, nobody replied. Adora got chills from the cave, it didn't seem cold but she couldn't help but feel anxious. Suddenly she heard what seemed to be laughter. Adora looked around the cave wondering where the laugh came from, and then she heard it again. Adora then reached a big room in the cave where she saw a big stone chest in the center. "Adora" a voice called out. "Hello? Who's there?" Adora responded. "Adora. Adora." the voice repeated and then Adora found herself in her room. Adora had been asleep. She looked around and she was indeed in her room. It was a big metal room with posters on the wall and two doors, one that was the exit and another that was for the bathroom. Adora looked over on her bed and saw Catra was awake staring at her while she sat on her bed. Catra was Adora's closest friend and recently, Adora and Catra decided to become more than friends. They had been best friends ever since they were little. Catra also used to be a member of the evil Horde. Despite the years they had been fighting, Adora forgave Catra for all that she had done; but lately Adora felt like Catra was keeping something from her. "Are you ever gonna have a nice nap?" said Catra yawning. "Oh sorry," Adora said, "Did I toss and turn?" "You were kicking me" said Catra taking a pillow and hitting Adora with it. "Hey, I'm sorry, ok?" said Adora, "I just had a weird dream." Catra stopped hitting Adora with the pillow and looked at her. "What kind of dream?" Catra asked. "I'm not sure, I was in a dark cave and someone was laughing at me." "Are you sure you weren't just reminiscing all those times I beat you, I definitely remember laughing at you, a lot." said Catra. "No, and you didn't beat me." Adora said before Catra stuck her tongue out at Adora. "Well, do you think it has anything to do with your big sister?" asked Catra. Of course Adora knew exactly what Catra meant by that. Adora was able to turn into She-Ra, the Princess of Power. Adora had once wielded a sword that gave her the power to turn into She-Ra, but now she got to do it without the sword. "Maybe" Adora said thinking about it. Catra moved over next to Adora and leaned on her side. "Well if it's anything serious, I'm sure you can handle it; and you know I will always have your back." said Catra Adora smiled and kissed her cheek, "Thanks" she said with Catra smiling back. An alarm began blaring with red lights flashing. "Uh oh," said Adora, "Looks like that's for us." "Race you to the Command Deck." said Catra running out of the door with Adora following "Doesn't seem like they're coming." said Swift Wind looking at the door. "Adora is the laziest princess I have ever seen." complained Glimmer. "They have to be awake by now." said Bow. And at that moment, Adora and Catra entered the loud and flashing Command Deck where all of their friends were. "What's going on?" Adora yelled so her voice can be heard over the alarm blaring. "Darla's sensors detected an anomaly dead ahead!'' yelled Entrapta who had arrived in the Command Deck before Catra and Adora did. Entrapta was princess with big lilac magical hair that moved just like normal limbs including tentacles. She was also a former member of The Horde. Besides what she could do with her hair, Entrapta didn't have any magical powers. She had always been committed to science and technology, and she was an incredible inventor. "Well now that we know that the alarms aren't going off for no reason, can you please turn them off!" yelled Catra. "Oh sure," Entrapta replied, "Darla! Alarms off!" The loud blaring and lights switched off. "Uhh, Darla, identify anomaly." said Bow trying to act like a captain. A small screen appeared in front of Bow. The screen showed a massive swirling vortex that the ship was getting closer to. "Looks like a wormhole." said Glimmer. "Ahhh!" exclaimed Entrapta happily, "A wormhole, we have to go inside it." "You want to go inside a deadly looking hole in space, why am I not surprised?" said Catra folding her arms. "Yea, normally I like exploring new places, but that does not look like a place I wanna go." said Scorpia. "Sorry, but we appear to be getting pulled into the wormhole." said Entrapta. "What?" exclaimed Adora, "Why aren't the alarms going off?" "I shut them off after Catra told me to." replied Entrapta with a smile. "Ow!" exclaimed Swift Wind. "What is it?" asked Adora. "I'm sensing something really bad in that portal, it's giving me a stinging feeling." said Swift Wind. "Hang on! We're getting pulled through!" yelled Bow. As the ship dragged along the portal, all Adora could see was rainbow colored light all over the room and then complete darkness. In Canterlot Castle, Princess Celestia sat on her throne with her sister, Princess Luna. Celestia was staring across the throne room at the castle doors in front of her; when her horn began to glow. "What?" Celestia thought. "Do you feel that?" Princess Luna asked. "Yes, something has arrived, no," Celestia paused and then spoke, "Will arrive, something will arrive and very soon." "Pray tell." said Luna. "Something powerful is close to touching down on Equestria, I just don't know what it is." said Celestia. > Chapter 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Adora? Adora??" a voice called out. Adora was lying on the ground when opened her eyes to see a bright blue sky. The sun was shining in her face as she reached to the sky to block the light in her eyes. That's when Adora saw what she was holding up was not a hand but a hoof. "What?" Adora said confused as she lifted her other hand but saw it was also a hoof. "What happened to my.." Adora began before getting up off the ground; but then she felt that her feet had also become hooves. "Oh no, Catra!" Adora panicked, "Glimmer! Bow!" "AAAAAH!" came a scream, Adora recognized it as Glimmer's. Adora ran towards where Mara's ship had crashed. Adora and the ship appeared to be on a clear grassy field in the middle of a forest. As Adora ran, she saw what appeared to be a light purple pony looking at her hooves and backside. "Glimmer?" Adora asked. The pony turned to look at Adora and gasped. "Adora?" asked the purple pony as Adora nodded. "What just happened? Why am I a pony? Why are you a pony? What's going on??" asked Glimmer frantically. Glimmer was a light purple pony with pink eyes, a sparkling pink and purple mane and tail, had a small horn on her forehead and on her flank was a white moon crescent. "I guess going through that portal transformed us, somehow." Adora said looking at herself. Adora was a light beige pony with light blue eyes, light brown mane and tail and had a symbol on her flank resembling her Sword of Protection cutting the symbol of the Horde on a green badge in half. Adora did not have a horn. "Are you guys ok?" asked Bow running up to them. "Bow??" said Glimmer, "You look.." Glimmer couldn't finish what she saying, she was staring at what Bow had become. Bow was a yellow pony with a black mane and tail, red eyes, and appeared to have wings. Bow also had a symbol on his flank resembling a quiver full of arrows inside a red badge. "I know right?" Bow said looking at himself. "Where are the others?" Adora asked. Bow pointed a hoof towards the ship "We landed behind the ship there." Bow said as more of Adora's transformed friends approached. Scorpia had been turned into a big red pony with rose eyes, white mane and tail and had the symbol of a scorpion on her flank; but she didn't appear to have wings or a horn. Entrapta was a snow white pony with rose eyes, a lilac mane and tail and had symbol resembling purple crystal with circuit traces on it. Entrapta did not appear to have wings or a horn. Swift Wind didn't seem that different other than the fact he had become slightly shorter than his previous height and the symbol on his flank was The Sword of Protection. "Has anyone seen Catra?" Adora asked and everyone shook their heads. Suddenly a growling came from the bushes behind Adora as she turned to face them. "Catra?" Adora asked hopefully. Suddenly, something jumped out the bushes and tackled Adora. Adora looked up saw what had her pinned to the ground. It was a orange pony with glowing green eyes, white freckles, fangs, a cedar brown mane and tail, pointy ears and appeared to have dark brown hooves that had orange claws coming out of them. "Catra, it's me, Adora." said Adora looking at her transformed friend. Catra stopped growling and got off of Adora before Adora stood up. "Sorry," Catra said, "That was...weird." Adora looked at Catra and noticed she had a symbol of a black cat with yellow eyes on her flank. "Ok, so we've all been turned into ponies, except Swift Wind." said Adora. "And I still look good." said Swift Wind with a smile. "Entrapta," Adora said, "How's Darla?" "Badly damaged," Entrapta said, "her exterior seems perfectly intact but her interior circuits are fried and she's out of fuel." "Ok, we'll need to find fuel, find help to repair most of the ship, and help anyone here in need. Does that sound like a plan?" "I'm in." said Glimmer raising a hoof. "Me too." said Bow raising a hoof with everyone else. "Ok, let's do it." Adora said, "Together." Princess Twilight Sparkle looked around the big dark cave she was in. "How did I get here?" Twilight thought to herself as she walked. The last thing Twilight remembered was that she was reading the latest Daring Do novel, Daring Do and The Spear of Victory. She had no memory of leaving The Castle of Friendship or taking a walk in the Everfree Forest. Twilight walked around the cave until she reached a big room where she saw a big stone chest in the center. Twilight knew exactly what was in the chest. "Why would I come here to see this?" Twilight pondered. Suddenly she heard laughter. Twilight recognized the laughter immediately. "No, it can't be." Twilight said. Twilight began to hear to thunder and wind howling, Twilight was now more afraid than ever. "No, it can't be you, you can't be here." Twilight said panicking. "Twilight?" a voice called out. "Who's there?" Twilight responded. "Twilight? Twilight!" the voice repeated and then Twilight found herself in her bedroom face to face with Spike. Twilight made a sound of relief. She had just been having a bad dream. "Are you ok, Twilight?" asked Spike. "Yea, I'm alright, Spike." replied Twilight as she got out of her bed. "Are you sure?" asked Spike, "You kept repeating 'Blue Box,' over and over again while you were asleep." "It was just a bad dream." Twilight said while Spike kept looking at her, "I'm fine, really." "Ok, if you say so." Spike said before leaving the room. Twilight then looked out her window to the castle. In the distance, she could see Pegasi pushing dark clouds together. There was a storm scheduled for today, and it was going to be a big one. > Chapter 3 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adora and her friends had left the forest and were on a road trying to find any signs of civilization. Bow kept looking at the symbol on his flank as he walked, thinking that it was only there temporarily. Scorpia was also looking at her back, wishing for her tail to return. Entrapta had discovered her hair could still move like limbs even while she was just a pony. Glimmer had figured out she could perform magic with the horn her head and so did Swift Wind. Catra and Adora were walking side by side not saying a single word. "Hey, look", Adora said pointing a hoof. There appeared to be a small town ahead of them. "Finally, a town to stop in, my feet are killing me." said Glimmer with a sigh. "Don't you mean your hooves are killing you?" said Bow nudging Glimmer who shot him a glare. "I take it everybody there is a horse like us?" said Catra. "Theoretically," said Entrapta, "although the people there could also be dragons or maybe even cat creatures." Catra smiled when Entrapta said that. The group walked into the town and it seemed that Catra was right. Everyone in the town was a pony. The ponies there were all different colors and sizes, and some had wings while others had horns. The rest of ponies there had neither horns or wings. A pink pony without a horn and wings was walking when she turned and saw Adora and the others. "Oooooh! New ponies!" the pony squealed. She ran up the to the group, did a little song and dance and brought out a bright blue cannon which shot out confetti. "What was that?" said Catra. "Hi there!" said the pink pony with a smile, "I'm Pinkie Pie, welcome to Ponyville." Adora approached Pinkie Pie. "Hi, I'm Adora." Adora said, "and these are my friends." she pointed to the rest of the group. "Whoah," Pinkie Pie said pushing Adora away and jumped on Swift Wind. "Are you a king?" she asked. "Heh, I wish." said Swift Wind. "You gotta meet my friend, Twilight Sparkle. She's a princess." said Pinkie Pie. Glimmer then spoke up. "A princess? You have princesses here?" she asked. "Well of course, silly." said Pinkie Pie getting off Swift Wind. "Well I am Queen Glimmer, ruler of Bright Moon." said Glimmer holding her head up proudly. Pinkie Pie then frowned. "Uhhh, no? Princess Luna is the ruler of the moon." "No, not the moon. Bright Moon, it's a kingdom." Glimmer said. "And how can she a ruler if she's just a princess?" asked Bow. "That's just how it is." said Pinkie Pie. Adora then spoke up. "Well anyway," she said, "Why don't you take us to see Princess Sparkle. "She just prefers Twilight." Pinkie Pie said, "She lives in a shiny castle." "Well ok then, let's go see Twilight." said Adora. "Okie Dokie Loki." Pinkie Pie said before giving them all umbrellas. "What are these for?" Catra asked. "For the rain, silly." Pinkie Pie said. "Are you kidding? There's not a single clo-" Catra didn't get to finish her sentence as it began to thunder loudly and drops of rain began to fall. The group of friends all raised their umbrellas to block the rain while Catra struggled with hers which had small holes in it. They all followed behind Pinkie Pie who did not have an umbrella and was instead hopping forward in the rain. > Chapter 4 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adora and her friends were walking in a brisk pace down the path Pinkie Pie was following. The rain had made it hard for everyone to relax and and enjoy seeing the rest of Ponyville. Catra was having the worst time in the rain. Her hooves were getting muddy from the wet ground and she twitched alarmingly when drops of rain fell through the holes in her umbrella. "Are we there yet?" asked Catra getting frustrated. "Yep, it's right here." Pinkie Pie said pointing a hoof. The group looked where Pinkie Pie was pointing but only saw a giant tree. "She lives in a tree?" asked Adora. Lightning began to flash and illuminated the tree the group was staring at. The tree Adora and the others were looking at wasn't a tree at all; but a giant castle that looked like a tree. It was giant purple castle with a bright blue crystal tree that appeared to be part of the castle. On the very top of the castle stood a giant bright blue crystal star. "Whoah." Adora said staring in awe at the castle. "Looks way better than the castle in Bright Moon." Glimmer said. "Come on, let's go." Pinkie Pie said galloping towards the castle with the rest following her. When they were inside, Pinkie Pie led the group to a big room that had 7 thrones all spread out in a circle and on between the chairs in the center was a giant round table with a glowing layout of a land that included Ponyville, the castle and many more places. Adora looked at each throne that was around the table and saw each throne had a different symbol on it; three red apples, three pink butterflies, three balloons, a white cloud with a lightning bolt that was red blue and yellow, three diamonds, and a six point star. Adora then looked at Pinkie Pie and saw she had 3 balloons on her flank just like the symbol on one of the thrones. "Pinkie Pie, are you a queen by any chance?" Adora asked. "Nope, there's no queens here, just princesses and I'm not one of them." Pinkie Pie said with a smile. "So anyone who's a princess gets to rule over an entire kingdom?" Glimmer said, "There's no kings or queens or lords?" "Nope, but there was this one time we had to stop an evil king, and another time we had to stop an evil bug queen; oooh, and this one time we had to stop a giant lord who sucked up magic with his mouth." Pinkie Pie said. Catra leaned over to Adora, "Is she crazy or something?" Catra asked before Adora shushed her. "What's going on?" a voice said as everyone turned towards a doorway. Twilight Sparkle was at the door staring at the group. "Uhh, hello." Adora said, "Are you Twilight?" "Yes, I'm Twilight Sparkle, who are all of you?" Twilight asked. "I'm Adora, these are my friends; Glimmer, Bow, Scorpia, Swift Wind, Entrapta and Catra." Adora said pointing a hoof at each person she mentioned. "Well it's very nice to meet you," Twilight said, "Sorry you had to come all this way in the rain." "It wasn't that bad." Adora said as Catra shot her a look. "So what brings you by?" asked Twilight. "Well were travelling through space in our spaceship when a wormhole pulled us in and made us crash land on your planet; so now we need help to repair the ship and get fuel crystals so we can go home." Adora explained. Twilight looked confused. "Space? Planet?" Twilight asked confused. "Well yea," Adora said, "this is your planet right?" "Is that what you call your land?" Twilight asked. "Well we live on a big round planet with lots of pieces of land and water, and beyond that are other planets and galaxies." Adora explained. "I'm sorry but I don't know what you mean by galaxies." Twilight said. "Have you been to space at all?" Bow asked before Twilight shook her head. "Fascinating," Entrapta said walking over to Twilight using her hair, "These creatures have never explored the outer reaches of their world." "Have you at least been to the moon?" Glimmer asked. "The only one who's been to the moon and back is Princess Luna, but she didn't go to the moon willingly; she was banished there." Twilight explained. "Guys, I think we travelled a bit further than we think we did." Catra said. "Catra may be right, this whole place seems so out of the ordinary," Scorpia said, "It's like we're in a whole other universe." "Which would explain why everyone except for me became horses." Swift Wind said. "Are you human by any chance where you come from?" Twilight asked. "Well most of us, but Catra and Scorpia have animal features." said Bow. "A cat and a scorpion?" Twilight asked and Catra and Scorpia nodded. "I'll tell the rest of our friends." said Pinkie Pie said as she aims her party cannon at the door, climbs into the cannon and then shoots out of the cannon through the door. "There's not a whole lot of room for all of you in the castle, but you can stay with our friends if they're ok with that." Twilight said. "That sounds great, thank you." Adora said. Princess Celestia was looking up towards the sky on her castle balcony when Princess Luna approached her. "I do not recall any storm scheduled for this day." Princess Luna said looking at the sky. "That's because there isn't one scheduled for today, someone wanted to make a storm without anypony's permission." Princess Celestia. "Who would do such a thing?" Princess Luna asked. "I don't know," Princess Celestia said, "and that's what worries me." > Chapter 5 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Best Friend Squad had split up to stay with Twilight and her friends until Darla could be fixed. Glimmer decided to stay with Twilight in her castle, Bow was staying with Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Entrapta were staying together, Swift Wind went to stay with Rarity, Scorpia was staying with Applejack; and Adora and Catra were staying at Rainbow Dash's place in a city called Cloudsdale. The next day, Glimmer was reading in Twilight's castle library when Twilight walked in. "Do you like to read a lot?" Twilight asked. Glimmer looked away from the book she was reading. "I'm not much of a bookworm, I mostly spend my days sitting on a throne and teleporting everywhere." said Glimmer. "I use my magic a lot too," said Twilight, "but I'm usually getting called away to different places to help anyone in trouble." "Yea, it's like everyday is a new exhausting adventure." said Glimmer. "So I don't think we have the materials you need to fix your ship." said Twilight. Glimmer sighed. "I had a feeling that would happen," Glimmer said, "Etheria is very different from this place." "Well maybe we can't repair your actual ship, but we can still find a way to get you back to your world." said Twilight. "I hate being here" said Glimmer before looking at Twilight. Twilight looked at Glimmer and Glimmer realized what she had said. "I mean," Glimmer said trying to find the words to use, "I appreciate what you've done for me, for all of us; but you didn't have to offer for us to stay, we didn't want to be in your way." Twilight smiled. "You and your friends are not in anypony's way," Twilight said, "We wanted to help, so we did. And nopony deserves no help at all. Even ponies from another universe." This time Glimmer smiled, "Thank you Twilight." Glimmer said. "So, how do you think the rest of your friends are doing with my friends?" asked Twilight. "Knowing them, they're all probably being like how we are." said Glimmer. "IT'S NOT CUTE!" Catra and Adora were in Rainbow Dash's home where they were talking. Catra did not seem to be enjoying the stay at the moment. "Aww, you're just a cute wittle kitten." Rainbow Dash teased. "Ugh, I'm not cute. That was one time." Catra said. "Try three." Adora said with a laugh. "It was magic pollen, it was touching my nose." Catra said. There was a knocking at the door. "I got it." Rainbow Dash said flying to the door and opening it. Applejack and Scorpia entered the house. "Hey AJ, what are you doing here?" Rainbow Dash asked after she and Applejack did a hoofbump. "Well, Scorpia helped me finish my chores and apple picking, she's really good at kicking trees." said Applejack smiling up at Scorpia. Scorpia was bigger than Applejack. If anything, Applejack thought Scorpia looked like her big brother, Big Mackintosh even though Scorpia would've been bigger than him. "Yea, it felt really good, and those apples we picked are delicious." Scorpia said with a smile. "While you're here Scorpia," Catra said, "can you please tell these two that I'm not cute." "No can do, kitty." Scorpia said while Adora and Rainbow Dash were trying to hold in their laughter. "Oh please no, don't call me that." said Catra. "Ok, ok, I'll stop." said Scorpia. "You should hear what Rainbow calls me." said Applejack glancing at Rainbow Dash. Suddenly loud thunder erupted from outside. "Was that thunder?" asked Adora. "That sounded like it was coming from directly outside the house, but it doesn't storm here; and there wasn't a storm scheduled for today." Rainbow Dash said. The group of ponies ran outside Rainbow Dash's home and looked up in the sky. Dark clouds had formed above Rainbow Dash's house, striking lightning all around it. There were strong winds blowing making each pony tremble. A lightning bolt flashed and hurtled to the ground right where Applejack was standing when Scorpia pushed her out of the way so they both wouldn't get hit. "Is there anything we can do to stop this?" Adora asked Rainbow Dash. "I could try but it looks too intense for one Pegasus to handle, we would need way more." said Rainbow Dash. "Stand back, I think I can handle this." Adora said. "What're you gonna do?" Applejack asked. "I don't know yet." Adora said looking up at the clouds. Adora took a deep breath and closed her eyes. She thought about the danger her friends were in, she thought about how much they meant to her, she felt how much she loved them; and then Adora opened her eyes. "For The Honor of Grayskull!" she shouted. Suddenly, Adora's whole body began to glow. Adora then rose into the air as a white bubble surrounded her. Adora could feel her whole body changing, she felt her whole body growing and she could feel a weight appearing on her back. Adora could also feel wind blowing through her hair and felt like electricity was running through it. Adora felt herself on the clouds again and saw Scorpia, Catra, Rainbow Dash and Applejack staring at her shocked. Adora had transformed into a tall white Alicorn with a big flowing blonde mane and tail; bearing her She-Ra insignia on her flank and on her body as armor. Adora also wore her crown on her head and above that was a long horn. Adora looked to her back and saw she had grown big wings. She-Ra was now in Cloudsdale. > Chapter 6 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adora was staring at the dark storm clouds, ignoring her friends shocked faces. She then raised her wings and took off for the sky. As soon as Adora approached a dark cloud, her horn glowed and a beam of light shot from it, destroying one of the clouds. Adora then flew right at a cloud and kicked it with her back hooves with her friends cheering her on. She then flew to the center of the clouds and let out a big burst of light, destroying all of the clouds. "You didn't tell me your best friend was a princess." Rainbow Dash said turning to Catra. "Yea, my bad," Catra said, "Also, she's my girlfriend." Adora did some loops in the sky before landing next to her friends. "You. Were. Awesome!" Rainbow Dash said excitedly. "Yea, that was real good flying up there." said Applejack. "Thanks, I guess." Adora said blushing a little. "I don't get, how long were you able to do that?" Scorpia asked. "I guess ever since we got here." Adora said, "Also, I just flew!" "That was pretty awesome." Catra said giving Adora a hoofbump. Applejack looked up at the sky, "Cloudsdale ain't supposed to get storms like that." she said. "Yea, was this somebody's idea of a joke?" said Rainbow Dash. "I don't think so," Adora said, "I felt something while up there, it was like magic." "Yea, I felt it too." Scorpia said, "It's like that weird feeling where your living in an evil empire and you feel like even though you've been there for so long, you can't help but think you're on the wrong-" Scorpia stopped and saw Adora and the other ponies were staring at her. "Nevermind, I'm just gonna stop talking." Scorpia said. "Wait," Rainbow Dash said, "How can YOU feel whatever magic that was?" "I don't know, maybe it's a princess thing." Scorpia said shrugging. "YOU'RE A PRINCESS?" both Applejack and Rainbow Dash said shocked. "I am, well, I used to be; actually I still technically am, it's a long story." said Scorpia. "Nevermind that," Adora said, "we need to find out where those clouds came from." "We could try asking the princesses over in Canterlot." said Applejack. "Is one of them named Princess Luna?" Adora asked. "Yep, that's one of them, Princess Celestia is her sister." Rainbow Dash said. "Ok, let's go meet the two princesses." Adora said. Glimmer and Twilight were outside the Canterlot Castle throne room when they were joined by all of their friends. "Hey Bow." Glimmer said giving Bow a hug, "How was your time with Fluttershy?" "Pretty good," Bow said looking at Fluttershy and then at Glimmer, "but I don't think her bunny likes me." he whispered. "Ok?" Glimmer said confused. "Pinkie Pie has been a wonderful specimen, we have made so much progress." Entrapta said. "You mean with fixing the ship?" Bow asked. "Oh, that." Entrapta said, "No, I meant with understanding how Pinkie Pie works, she's not a unicorn or a Pegasus; and yet she's capable of levitating and turning her mane into a drill." "We also found out I can make more of me." Pinkie Pie said bouncing up and down. "Oh heavens, we do not need more of you, Pinkie darling." said Rarity "So she can clone herself, what's the big deal?" Swift Wind asked. "Trust me, you don't want to see an army of Pinkie Pies." said Rainbow Dash. A royal guard came through the door to the throne room. "The princesses will see you now." he said. "Alright guys, let's go." Adora said, still in her She-Ra form. The group of friends entered the throne room. Across from them stood two large thrones, each of them was being used by too Alicorns. As they got closer, Adora could see what the two Alicorns looked like. One of them was tall and snow white, with a long wavy mane that had pink green and white stripes; the tail also had the stripes. She had pink eyes and was wearing gold around her neck, a golden crown and gold slippers on her hooves. next to the alicorn was a smaller dark blue alicorn with green eyes and was wearing black for her crown, around her neck and had light blue slippers. both alicorns had symbols on their flanks, the white one had a symbol of a sun, while the other had a moon crescent surrounded by a black blot. "Princess Celestia!" Twilight said excitedly and ran up to the white alicorn who gave her a hug. "Good to see you, Twilight." Princess Celestia said. "I too grant you my welcome, Twilight Sparkle." said the dark blue alicorn as Celestia and Twilight finished their hug. "Good to see you too, Luna." Twilight said giving the dark blue alicorn a hug. Swift Wind was staring at both princesses in awe until Adora elbowed him. "Now, I assume you are here because of the storms in Equestria." said Princess Celestia. "We are, your majesty. We-" Adora paused and looked at Twilight, "Oh sorry, did you want to take the lead?" "No, you're good." Twilight said. "Thanks. Your majesties, a freak storm attacked us in Cloudsdale, and we're not sure why." Adora said. "And who pray tell are you?" Princess Luna asked. "I am Adora, sometimes called She-Ra; The Princess of Power." Adora said. "Is your kingdom in any danger?" Celestia asked. "Well, I'm not the ruler of a kingdom, I'm a different kind of princess." Adora said reverting back to her pony form. "Oh my" Luna said surprised. "Yea, and I'm also not a ruler," Swift Wind said, "But I am a pretty awesome steed." "I'm a princess as well," Scorpia said. "And I'm a queen." Glimmer said. "Alright." Celestia said holding out a hoof, "So most of you are royals, where did you come from?" "A world called Etheria." Glimmer said. "Do you have a metallic vessel?" Luna asked. "Yes, that's our ship." Adora said. Luna looked at Celestia and nodded. "What is it?" Adora asked. "We believe that your ship may have caused the problem." Celestia said. "Excuse me? You're not trying to blame us, are you?" Catra said glaring at the two princesses. Celestia shook her head, "Not at all." she said. "But we do know what's causing the storms." Luna said before her horn glowed and casted a symbol on the floor. The symbol shimmered on the floor and then went up in blue flames. Through the flames a silhouette of a horned figure appeared, wielding a staff. Twilights eyes widened, "No, it can't be." she said. "I'm afraid it's truth, Twilight." Celestia said as the figure became more clear in the flames. The figure was a tall grey beast with white fur all over his body including his head. He had big black horns and wore a dark blue crown. The creature's eyes glowed blue with a fanged smile on his face. He also appeared to be wearing black armor and had a white tail. "Who is that?" Adora asked looking at Twilight. Twilight gulped and then spoke with her head down, "The Storm King." she said. > Chapter 7 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adora and her friends stood in the throne room in silence while Twilight and the other ponies were panicking. Twilight wasn't say anything, she couldn't find the words to say. Twilight's friends, however were pacing the floor and talking over each other. Finally Adora spoke. "Who's The Storm King?" she asked. "The Storm King was an evil tyrant from a faraway land who wished to conqueror all." Luna said. "He nearly destroyed Canterlot and Ponyville, but he was defeated." Celestia said looking at Twilight. "He wasn't just defeated," Rarity said, "He was turned into stone and shattered into pieces." "I take it there's no coming back from that?" Scorpia asked looking at Rarity. "Well apparently not, considering he's returned." Rarity said. Twilight looked up and spoke. "He shouldn't be able to make the storms without Alicorn power." "Indeed," Luna said, "The staff itself has been here in Canterlot, and it hasn't moved once." "Well then how can he make all of that crazy weather?" said Rainbow Dash. "Was he buried anywhere after he....shattered?" Glimmer asked. "We put every stone piece of him in a chest and placed it underground." Celestia said. "Did you say chest??" Both Adora and Twilight said surprised and then looked at each other. "Whoah, what's going on?" Catra asked. "Before we got here, aboard Darla." Adora said, "I remember having a dream about being in a cave, and I saw the chest." "Was there anything on the chest, like a jewel?" Twilight asked. Adora paused and thought really hard, trying to remember what she had seen. Images formed in her mind, she could see the long stone chest. On the far end of the chest was a blue diamond inserted into the chest. "A blue diamond." she said. "That's the same chest from my dream!" Twilight said shocked. "Wait a minute," Catra said looking at Celestia and Luna, "You said our ship may have caused this, what did you mean?" The image of The Storm King changed to show Darla. The scene then changed to a grassy field before Darla was shown smashing into the ground. The ship began to spark and glow as pink and blue energy ran down the ship and into the ground. The scene shifted to show the underground cave that The Storm King's chest sat. the same colored energy dripped from the ceiling and landed on the chest, making it glow. The image began to fade as the blue flames dissipated, leaving every pony shocked. "Your ship brought The Storm King back!" Rainbow Dash said before charging at The Best Friend Squad; but was held back by Applejack who had bit Rainbow Dash's tail. "We didn't mean to bring him back, we didn't even know someone was buried underneath Darla." Glimmer said. "It may have not been intentional at all." Celestia said, "We don't know anything about your world and what magic it contains." "The travel to different worlds, even entirely new dimensions can very well release immense quantities of power." Luna said. "So magic from our world brought a foe from this world to life and even gave him storm magic." Glimmer said. "Ok, so how do we stop him?" Adora asked. Celestia and Luna both looked at each other and then back at the group. "We're not sure." Celestia said with Luna shaking her head. "He may still be underground, but his reach is mighty." Luna said. "Well then it's up to us to stop him." Adora said. Twilight smiled, "Adora's right, we've faced The Storm King before, we can do it again." she said. "And we've faced plenty of threats, like me." Catra said with a toothy smile, "Wait what?" Twilight said confused. "We'll explain later." Glimmer said. The group of ponies leave except Swift Wind who turns to look at Luna. "Soo, if we save the world and stuff, do you wanna maybe-" "Swift Wind!" Adora yelled. "Gotta go." Swift Wind said dashing for the door. > Chapter 8 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Best Friend Squad and Mane Six were all at where Darla had crashed. It seemed like nothing in the area had changed, the grass was still green, all trees appeared to be still standing and Darla was still damaged. Entrapta had brought a device from the ship and was scanning the area around them all. "It appears it's hollow underground," Entrapta said, "there is definitely cave underneath here." "Ok," Glimmer said, "I'll teleport us down." Glimmer and Twilight both said and then looked at each other. "Oh I'm sorry, I was usually the one who teleported everyone." Glimmer said blushing. "It's alright, you can do it if you want to." Twilight said. "No, it's your world, I insist." Glimmer said. "Yes, but you're the one who teleports everyone, I hardly do that." Twilight said. "Which is why the honor should be yours." Glimmer said. "Uhhh, can you guys speed this up?" Swift Wind said. "I agree with Swift Wind, look." Bow said pointing a hoof to the sky. Storm clouds began to form and join together in the sky. "Ok, together then." Glimmer said with Twilight nodding. Glimmer and Twilight's horns both glowed as everyone gathered around them and then they all disappeared and then found themselves in a cave. "Is this the place?" Adora asked. "Yep, we're right below Darla." Entrapta said still looking at her scanner. The cave looked different from what Adora and Twilight had seen in their dreams. There were glowing blue crystals placed in a line on each wall around the group; there was also a staircase behind where they stood, and the chest was nowhere to be seen. "Huh, this actually looks kinda nice." Scorpia said admiring the scenery. "I know right?" said a voice. The group spun around to face the stairs. Blue flames began to spark around each step until they reached the top where a figure sat on a throne. "I had to do some redecorating, pity I didn't have an army to do it for me." said the figure. "Are you The Storm King?" Adora asked. "In the flesh, well, not flesh exactly." The Storm King replied before leaning forward into the light. The Storm King looked like himself from a distance but as The group looked closer they realized he wasn't what he looked like before. The Storm king was made of stone like a statue, with blue glowing cracks all over his body and had glowing blue eyes. When he spoke his teeth were made of stone too and the inside of his mouth appeared to be glowing blue too. "You like? I'm not too impressed but I think it works." The Storm King said looking at his stone claws. "What do you think you're doing to Equestria?" Rainbow Dash said glaring at The Storm King. "I think I'm trying to destroy it," The Storm King said with a grin, "This whole world is too cute, I hate cute." he said frowning. "Why don't you come closer and I'll show you how cute I am." Catra said. "Fiery, I don't think we've met." The Storm King said curious. "We're The Best Friend Squad." Bow said proudly. "WOOO! Where's my autograph book?" The Storm King said excited, "You're just like all the other ponies, thinking friendship is the answer to everything." "Well that's what we're gonna use to stop you." said Applejack. "Good luck with that." The Storm King said before vanishing into thin air. The room began to shake around the group huddling together. Small rocks began to fall from the ceiling as the ground began to crack open. "He's bringing the whole place down on us." Bow said. "Ok, I'll get us out of here." Glimmer said shining her horn and disappearing and taking and everyone with her. Above where Darla was things were not better. The sky was blackened by storm clouds flashing lightning everywhere and the wind was pulling and pushing hard. Lightning was striking Darla several times while Entrapta was running to the ship to save it. "Hold on there." Applejack said tossing a lasso around Entrapta and pulling her back, "We need to find shelter." "I know," Entrapta said, "Darla is the safest place imaginable, she can survive a storm." "Are you sure?" Bow asked. "Yes, I'm 92% sure." "Those odds are good enough for me." Glimmer said. The rest of the group agreed and made a run for Darla. > Chapter 9 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Every pony was aboard Darla while it was storming. Twilight and her friends were amazed by the interior of the ship while Adora and her friends were trying to think of a plan. "I could try wiping out all the clouds like I did last time." Adora said. "Did you forget the fact that they're being controlled by a psychotic rock demon?" Catra said glaring at Adora. "Well do YOU have any ideas?" Adora asked returning the glare to Catra. "If you wanna stop the storms, just go for the source, fight the king." Catra said. "I'm with Catra." Rainbow Dash said hovering over next to Catra. "We can't just charge in head on without a proper plan." said Bow, "Twilight, does The Storm King have any weaknesses?" Twilight was looking on the screen in front of the captain's chair, the storms appeared to be getting worse. "I'm not sure." Twilight said. "Why doesn't Adora just go full She-Ra like she did with Horde Prime?" Scorpia asked, everybody looked at her. "Or we could just use our own powers of harmony." Rarity said. "If only we had an army of She-Ras," Swift Wind said, "or an army of me." "Are there more?" Twilight asked Adora. "I'm the only one, as far as I'm aware." Adora said. "Why don't you just call upon other She-Ras before you and use them?" Rainbow Dash asked. "This isn't a TV show, Dashie." Pinkie Pie said, "This is real life." "Wait, why don't we just use that idea." Glimmer said. "What idea?" Adora asked Glimmer. Everyone turned to look at Glimmer. "What Swift Wind said, an army of She-Ras." Glimmer said. "Glimmer there are no other She-Ras." Adora said looking at Glimmer. "No, but you can make more of them." Glimmer said with everyone looking intrigued. "The reason we have Swift Wind is because She-Ras magic transformed him from a regular horse into Swift Wind." Bow explained. "And I've seen Adora transform a lizard into a dragon looking thing." Glimmer said. "You want her to transform all the animals into warriors?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Not just any animals," Glimmer said, "Us, she can transform us." Twilight's eyes widened. "That's brilliant, we could all be super charged." Twilight said. "I don't know If I have enough power for that." Adora said. "Of course you do, I've seen you in action, you've done awesome things as She-Ra." Catra said wrapping her hoof around Adora. "You're not alone on this, we're here for you." Glimmer said standing beside Adora. "It can't be all of us." Entrapta said. Everyone looked at Entrapta who was fiddling around with one of her computers. She turned and saw them staring. "Theoretically your plan could work, but we can't all have the power." Entrapta explained, "If we were all to join in, you would have to spread power from you to us and even we have to share that power with the rest. It be spread out to thin, we need an equal amount of power, including you." "Ok," Adora said, "So we limit the number of ponies to use." "I've already got the power so I'm out." said Swift Wind. "And I think I know how to fix the ship now, Pinkie Pie was a big help." Entrapta said. "Yep, I'm a big help." Pinkie Pie said grinning. "Well I'm going with Adora." Glimmer said, "Anybody else want to join?" "I'm in." Bow said. "Of course you know I'm gonna be with you." Catra said. "Count me in." Rainbow Dash said. "I'll go too." Twilight said. "I'll stay on the ship." Fluttershy said with her head down. "But Flutters," Rainbow Dash said, "The Storm King is gonna wreck all the animal's homes." Fluttershy looked up with an angry glare. "That meanie, ok let's do it." Fluttershy said. "Alright, the rest of you need to help me fix Darla." Entrapta said. Swift Wind, Scorpia, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Entrapta all stood back while the other team was huddled up. "You guys ready?" Adora asked her friends. "Yep, lets do this." Glimmer said. "We're with you." Bow said Adora closed her eyes and thought about her friends, she thought about how much she cared about them and how they made her feel and that she wanted to protect them. She opened her now glowing eyes as her friends all spoke at the same time as she did. "FOR THE HONOR OF GREYSKULL!" They all shouted. > Chapter 10 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The storms were getting worse. Powerful winds were tearing apart the trees as lightning struck them igniting fire that was spreading. Rain was falling and gathering on the ground, the water was gathering on the ground and flooding the area. In the center of all of this chaos was The Storm King standing on a clear space, undeterred from the disaster. The Storm King let out a loud howl as his whole body sparked, "This is it! End of the world and there is no one to stop me!" "Guess again" a voice called out and The Storm King turned around to face who was speaking. Twilight stood with Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Adora, Catra, Glimmer and Bow; but they looked different. Twilight had gotten a little bigger and her wings had changed color. Besides her normal purple, sections of her wings were yellow, orange and red; and her hooves appeared to have gold on them. Glimmer looked bigger as well, and she had sprouted light pink wings. Glimmer had dark purple slippers on each of her hooves and had a purple amulet around her neck. Besides his glow, Bow didn't look that much different besides his size matching Glimmer and Twilight's and he also appeared to have a horn. Rainbow Dash had a horn and her wings and her blue wings now had colors of yellow, orange, and pink. Fluttershy had pink on her wings and had a horn. Catra's claws and body were now glowing green and her mane and tail appeared to be flowing. Adora was in her She-Ra form standing in front of the others. "Seriously?" The Storm King said, "You think making yourselves look bright and pretty is gonna beat me? Go ahead, give it your best shot." "Can I go first?" Rainbow Dash asked Adora. "By all means." Adora said with a smile. Rainbow Dash rose off the ground, her whole body was sparking rainbow colors. She launched across the field like a rainbow colored rocket, leaving behind a rainbow stream and rammed straight into The Storm King, sending him flying across the field. "Whoah, that was a cool move" said Bow. "Alright Bow, you're up." Adora said. Bow soared in the air and stopped to hover over The Storm King. Bow's horn glowed and produced a glowing circle that displayed arrows in squares around the "Let's try..." said Bow thinking of what to do, "Sonic arrow!" An arrow in one of the boxes glowed and an arrow appeared in front of Bow aiming at the ground in next to The Storm King. The arrow hit the ground and let out sonic waves, The Storm King began to shake and covered his ears, irritated by the sound. "Agh! Leave me alone!" The Storm King grabbed his staff and shot at Bow. "Lasers! He's got lasers!" Bow shouted flying away from the king. "Gotcha covered, Bow." Glimmer said now flying in the air. Glimmer landed right next to The Storm King, smiled and then smacked him with one of her wings, sending him into a fallen tree. "I love these, Mom would be so proud!" Glimmer said excitedly. The Storm King stood up and with all of his might threw the broken tree at Glimmer who teleported before it hit. "I spent enough time with evil tyrants to learn they were just a bunch of idiots." Catra said charging at the king on all fours. Catra jumped and swiped the air, creating green claw marks that struck The Storm King. Catra then delivered a kick with her backhooves at The Storm King, knocking him down. "Y'know," The Storm King said grabbing Catra's tail and lifting her up, "You remind me of a unicorn." "Hey pebblehead, get away from my girlfriend." Adora said before blasting The Storm King with her horn. "Nice one." Catra said getting free from the king's grasp. "Where's Twilight and Fluttershy?" Adora asked. The Storm King stood up, his body still had Catra's green claw marks and he appeared to have more cracks all over his body. "This won't save you, I've gotten upgrades, I won't be beat by a bunch of-" The Storm King didn't get to finish his sentence because the ground started to rumble and crack. The ground broke open, The Storm King fell into the hole that was made and came face to face with a bear. "What are you looking?" The Storm King said annoyed. The bear growled and the ponies could hear roaring and The Storm King's yells from the hole. The Storm King frantically climbed out the hole, the bear came out with him. The Bear glowed and faded away only to have Fluttershy standing in it's place. "What the?" The Storm King looked confused as he looked up and saw purple lasers coming down on him. "It's over Storm King" Twilight said as she made more lasers with her horn. "I think we're winning" Scorpia said looking at Darla's screen showing the battle outside. "Yes, it appears they are succeeding, just wish I looked as marvelous as them." Rarity said. "Ok, I think the ship is ready." Entrapta said. "We're not leaving are we?" Swift Wind asked. "No, we just need to make sure the ship powers up correctly." Entrapta said looking at the screen. "Well start her up then" Applejack said. Entrapta pressed a button expecting something to happen, nothing appeared to be happening. "Oh come on!" Applejack shouted, kicking the the control panel with her back hoof. The ship began to hum and lights came on. "WEEEE! You did it Applejack." Pinkie Pie said hugging her friend. Catra, Adora, Glimmer, Bow, Twilight, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were now producing different colored lights and directing them at The Storm King. The Storm King was receiving more cracks on his body and bits of his stone body were breaking off. Finally all the stone fell off The Storm King, leaving him as a glowing blue spirit. "No, you can't do this, you can't beat me!" the spirit shouted. "Really? Cuz it seems like we just did." Catra said. The friends' lights became brighter as The Storm king became enveloped in white light and finally exploded. The Storm King was destroyed. "Woo hoo!" Glimmer shouted. "We did it!" Bow said hugging Glimmer. "That. Was.." Rainbow Dash began to say. "Awesome." both Adora and Catra said looking at each other and smiling. > Chapter 11 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- After the battle, Adora and her friends were ready to go home. Pinkie Pie however, suggested doing something before they left, a party. Canterlot Castle's ballroom was filled with lots of ponies and other creatures. Bow and Glimmer were dancing on the ballroom floor while Scorpia and Pinkie Pie thought it would be fun to see who could eat the most food. Adora and Catra were just standing in a corner, watching their friends have fun. Meanwhile Swift Wind was staring at Luna when someone tapped his shoulder. Swift Wind turned to face Celestia. "Go talk to her." Celestia said. "I don't know, she might not like me very much." Swift Wind said nervously. "My sister might find you interesting, you shouldn't let fear hold you back." Celestia said. "Ok," Swift Wind gulped, "Here I go." Swift Wind walked over to Luna who looked at him and smiled. Meanwhile, Adora and Catra were still standing in the corner, not interested in dancing. "Looks like Swift Wind's got a new girlfriend." Adora said looking at Swift Wind and Luna. "Yea, but we're still the best couple right?" Catra asked. Adora smiled, "Totally." she and Catra hoofbump. Scorpia had finished her meal and was exhausted from eating, but Pinkie Pie was still eating. "Wow, you got way more energy than I do." Scorpia said surprised how much Pinkie Pie had ate. "I know, and I wasn't even hungry before." Pinkie Pie said with a grin. On the dancefloor, Bow and Glimmer had stopped dancing. "Soo, from 1-10, how would you rate this adventure?" Glimmer asked. "We turned into horses and I actually got to use magic," Bow said, "This way more than a ten." "Well I'm done dancing, maybe we should check with the others." Glimmer said. Glimmer and Bow walked over to Adora and Catra who nodded and all four of them walked over to Swift Wind who was talking to Luna. "We don't even need to send paper letters or scrolls, we have machines that send videos and pictures wirelessly" Swift Wind said. "Fascinating, that sounds far more efficient than what you can find at a post office." Luna said. Swift Wind looked at Adora and the others, said goodbye to Luna and went with them. Adora and her friends said their goodbyes to everyone and left on their ship. Darla's sensors had detected a wormhole somewhere near the moon, Entrapta believed it was going to be their way home. Twilight was looking up at the sky as the ship left. "They were pretty fun to be around." Rainbow Dash said as Twilight's friends walked up to her. "Yes, they really were, and they helped us save Equestria." Twilight said. "You think they'll come back?" Applejack asked Twilight. "I hope so." Twilight said. Darla was travelling through the portal, there appeared to be some turbulence. "It's good to have hands again." Glimmer said looking down at her hands. Everyone on the ship had turned to back to their normal selves. "I'm not gonna lie, I kinda miss being a pony." Catra said. "Don't worry, you're still cute." Adora said elbowing Catra. Catra blushed, "Thanks." "Ok, we're approaching the end of the portal, brace yourselves!" Entrapta said as a bright light filled the ship. The light dissipated, Adora and her friends exited the ship to see where they had ended up. The ship sat on a large rock, the area around it was a complete black void. "Oh no, we're still not home." Bow said disappointed. "This can't be right." Adora said looking around. "Wait, who's.." Glimmer said looking ahead at the edge of the rock. At the edge of the rock stood a woman with light pink wings. She turned around to face the others, Glimmer couldn't believe who it was. "Glimmah?" The woman spoke with an accent. "Mom?" Glimmer said shedding a tear.
