Warning:The first chapter contains mild violence



The planet Earth, a world far far away on the distant stars, covered with green grass, white snow, colorful flowers, sands, underground catacombs and ancient temples/ruins, and populated by not only human beings but all manners of creatures such as monsters, aquatic creatures, sharks, and many more. Truly a wonder of the world. On the outside, one might call it a paradise. Peaceful, beautiful and full of freedom. But like many things, despite its serene looking surface, it wasn’t without its dangers.

Thousands of lightyears away, there lay a dark planet that's populated by evil creatures. As far as lightyear, dark and unpleasant. Thick with one of the strongest rocks:bedrock. Ruled by Black Entity, has endless production of weapons from all years such as cannons, sword, bows and many more with technology.

At the center of this world's a cave. A single crimson rocky cave, an dark figure resembling a human being. Black colored body with shadowy aura and a height of 2.2 meters. The cave is full of weapons, lights and decorations. The decorations are looking like skeletons, skulls and more, and reflected that gave the visage of the face, complete with red pupil-less eyes and sharp razor teeth. The kind of structure that makes the demons from underworld look like toddlers.

Both traits of the mastermind of endless terror. The would-be conqueror of Multiverse: Black Entity. Otherwise known as Blacky by his enemies. A brilliant, but unhinged villain who had but one goal – to subjugate the entire planet Earth and possibly the multiverse, and to turn it into his own empire. The single greatest threat to all inhabitants of this universe. For years the villain had worked to bring all he saw under his rule. Not the least of which included building terrible war machines, weapons and spells, using using all natural resources from Earth for his army, and transforming the members of the populace themselves into soulless minions to do his biddings. He would have conquered the planet many times by now.

Black Entity


If it weren't for a group of heroes, especially the certain speedy lightning user.

He then teleports away, leaving a red, black and white glitchy particles to the spot where he stood before.



He appears on one of the Sky Islands where his first base was established. You might be asking, "What does the Sky Islands look like?" Well, everywhere you look, there's some random islands you see on the seas below, but instead of water, clouds are beneath them. Every clouds and islands here are at least 10,000 feet high from the sea level, while being located generally on Pacific Ocean, but sometimes could move everywhere at slow pace due to some storms in some countries. Now back to what was happening.

Suddenly, the outskirts of the Sky Island echoed with a thunderous noise.

BOOOOOOOM!!!

A sonic boom echoed through the north section of Sky Island. One at a time, the many surveillance cameras spread throughout the city picked up an image. Something would quickly blast by their screens. Too quick for the cameras to make out a concrete image. The disturbance was only visible as a blue blur followed by other colored blurs quickly racing past their lenses. Of course, this could only mean one thing:

They are here.

Alarms blared. Black Entity's minions appearing faster and faster every second, the minions raising their weapons like scimitar, guns, maces, axe and more going into defensive positions. Soulless red orbs scanned out over the area, searching for the target. It wasn’t long before the speeding azure bullet was detected in the distance. And it was closing in fast. As the blue streak blasted towards their position, their targeting grids scanned and locked on as they began firing the mounted guns. But their bullets couldn’t hit the bogey.

They were just too slow.

Seconds later, purple explosions riddled the pathway, throwing up smoke and fire. What were previously the shadowy minions disintegrate in ashes, broken weapons as the high speed object tore through them, while throwing purple energy orbs everywhere.

A sound akin to wheels suddenly braking on asphalt echoed as the thing that ripped through the metal robots came to a screeching halt. As the clouds of smoke finally settled, a figure became visible. 

There stood the hero of his own world – Mico Diamondhero

Turning from the heap of broken weapons left in his wake, Mico faced down the wide stretching road to the citadel as the alarms stopped. From here he could already see the swarms of shadows heading towards his position. He could make out hundreds of red orbs lightly bobbing up and down in the distance. Black Entity. And up above him, cyan colored aura slowly going down on his left shoulder and there's Henry, enveloped in icy aura.

Mico is human-looking individual with medium skin. He had black hair, with Semibald hair style and yellow pupils. For attire, he wears a blue jacket with hood and white sleeveless shirt underneath. He wears a green pants with blue-green stripe on the knee, Mico strangely wears an amulet(anyone cannot guess if it is a necklace or amulet). It had orange circle on the pendant, the color of it's cord was electric blue, on the center was a blue orb pulsing some sort of energy with 4 bars connected to it and the orange circle. He wears white gloves with cyan circles with lines sticking out of the bottom leading to his golden bracelets accented in cyan. The tops of his boots are of a similar fashion with a red gem set in gold. The rest of his boots are navy blue with a white stripe down the center, cyan toes, and gray soles. The final feature was that he is 2 meters tall, which is above a normal human while having muscles despite being skinny.

For Henry, he looks bizzare, as he was an anthropomorphic husky with black and white coat, the ears are raised up and he had cyan pupils. For attire, he wears a gray sweater and pants that only reaches down to the Shin and Calf. Like Mico, he wears a strange necklace/amulet that cannot be identified(it was actually both). The amulet is composed of a white snowflake, but the first thing you will see is that it is frozen with cyan colored ice, but some parts of it are not. It also pulse with an energy and the amulet's cord isn't visible due to it being covered by Henry's thick fur. He wears a pair of dark gray gloves with white bands around each wrist, and shoes that are red from the heel to the middle and dark cyan from the  middle to the toe with white cuffs and gray soles, each with a white band around the ankle. He also had 2 tails, and unlike Mico, he is only 1.8 meters tall.

On his right shoulder, Pyro, who is enveloped on flaming aura is seen flying up carrying Drago in her both arms and eventually goes to Mico's right side.

Drago is a green anthropomorphic pliosaur with brown stripes on his back. His face have a similar shape to a crocodile and a ridge on his back, has yellow slitted pupils, razor sharp teeth and a long tail, so long that it is almost 2 meters in length. His neck is also pretty long, it is nearly 1 meter in length. For attire, he wears mitten-like gloves with slightly dark green cuffs, and red and blue shoes with the same green cuffs in his ankles.

Pyro, like Henry, is an anthropomorphic cat. Her fur color is akin to a ginger cat, which is orange with some stripes being a bit more orange than the rest of the fur. She had a triangular ears with peach-colored canals, two medium-length eyelashes on each side of her eyes, and a long tail with its end being colored peach. Pyro also has 8 plumes of hair, done up in a ponytail with 6 pointing up and the 2 in the bottom facing down, it also has magenta hair tie. For attire, she wear a purple tailcoat with rose-colored trim at the bottom, a golden collar and lavender leggings. Pyro also wears white gloves, which has fluffy, fur-like cuffs and amethyst high-heeled shoes with grey soles, white stripes AND fluffy cuffs, like her gloves.

More allies have appeared on their backs: These are Christian Flamarang, Justin Voidicle, Lloyd Overseer, JR Goldilocks and finally, Macoy Yinyangton.

Christian, like his brother Mico, looks like a human being. He stood atleast 4 inches taller than the latter. He has brown hair with length reaching the bottom of his neck. He has orange pupils and medium skin, similar to Mico's skin tone. For attire, he wears a red jacket, white shirt underneath with pants having an unknown color due to it being very dark red or completely black. He wears white gloves with black and red cuffs, below the cuffs is a golden ring on each of his wrist. He had shoes similar to Shadow the Hedgehog while having the same cuffs and rings on his ankles. Like Mico, he had an amulet/necklace. His amulet is composed of red cross with an pulsing orb in the middle, it is surrounded by a golden ring with 4 orange spikes on 4 directions the cross is pointing. The necklace's cords are made of gold. The final feature is that he looks way more muscular than his younger brother Mico.

Justin Voidicle's appearance is much different from Mico and Christian. His height nearly reaching Christian's, has green eyes, warm skin tone(a bit darker than the latter 2) and black hair styled similar to Mico's. For attire, he wears brown-colored armor instead of a jacket, it has shoulder pads made from frozen blue crystals and all over the body, there are smaller ones filling up the damages his armor sustained. Furthermore, he wears white gloves and black cuffs on his wrists and ankles. But instead of red tongues it is icy blue. He wears an amulet similar to Mico and Christian. It was composed of a golden ring with a blue glowing orb in the middle. Connected to it and the orb are 4 turquoise bars and with 4 spikes shaped like shark fins outside the ring. The 4 turquoise bar spins in a counter-clock wise while the blue shark fins spins clock wise.

For Lloyd Overseer, his height is at least a few centimeters shorter than Mico as well as skin tone being slightly darker than the latter(his skin tone is tan). He had blue eyes, black hair with similar style to Mico's, but is slightly thicker and has hair bangs to differentiate it. For attire, he wears a green jacket with white shirt underneath, white gloves with black and green cuffs, and V-shaped green arrows on his cuffs. He wears a lime-colored pants with yellow details, as well as yellow adidas shoes with turquoise details and gray soles. Like his 3 siblings, he wears an amulet/necklace as well. The amulet appears different from the others, because instead of being circular with designs describing their powers, it is instead a green snake with yellow outline.

JR Goldilocks is a Millennial-looking individual with blue eyes, hairstyle similar to Mico and Lloyd with hair bangs, medium skin tone and horseshoe moustache. His height is the same as Mico. For attire, he wears a yellow jacket with white shirt underneath, white gloves and red and green cuffs. JR also wears cyan pants with white stripes on the side, dirty yellow shoes with gray soles and red-orange stripes on left, right and middle going from the heels to toe. For his amulet, it looks the same as Christian's but with lime cord and the cross in the middle is green as well as the orb pulsing with energy.

Macoy Yinyangton is pretty short compared to most of them, being 1.8 meter in height. His skin tone is almond, with his brown hair being identical to Lloyd. Unlike his brothers, his eye color is black. For attire, he wears an indigo jacket with white shirt underneath and has no hood, sky blue pants with gray stripes running down on the sides and white gloves. He wears white shoes with black soles, turquoise tongue and lace guard. His amulet/necklace differs from the rest like Lloyd, as it is a golden arrow pointing down with silver cord connected to it.

Mico first spoke up while waving in a mocking way, "Hello, Blacky. Long time no see."

Black Entity then laughed like John Roblox, before mimicking what Mico said, "Hello, Bluey. Long time no see." He raised his left arm and the Crystals of Darkness rises from his body, having a total of 24 crystal. The crystals are purple-ish black in color, with the color fading into a red one on the spiky parts. He continued laughing which in turn the heroes made their reactions; Christian has an extremely mad look, Justin facepalmed, Lloyd's angry look is not as angry as Christian's but still very mad, the rest frowned at different levels.

Black Entity stopped laughing and snapped his fingers, which made his pair of allies appear on his both sides. They are named White Entity and Naeus. 

White Entity, as their name implies, is the opposite of Black Entity.. in terms of looks not abilities and personality. It has white colored body, turquoise pupil-less eyes, and unlike Black Entity, it has fangs like a vampire instead of having a set of razor sharp teeth similar to a shark. The final features they have is a white, aether-like aura around it and a height of 2 meters, which was shorter than Black Entity's.

Naeus is a large, white skeleton standing a few centimeters shorter than Mico, but compared to Macoy he is tall. He wore dark purple robes which covered his whole body except for his skeletal hands and his face, and a hood extending from these robes which were always up. In his head covered by his hood was a golden crown with a green square-shaped gem in the middle, a pair of large dark-orange horns on top of his head. He also wears golden jewelry and headbands.

"You'll do what now?", Black Entity said as the trio of villains fired lasers to the heroes, Mico reacted quickly by casting a blue barrier. The 3 villains stopped firing lasers and look on surprise.

"New ability? Impressive, but it doesn't matter... and it doesn't count..." Just after White Entity spoke up, both the White and Black spirit launches a red and cyan shockwave that knocked back everyone, to their awe and shock, Mico, Christian and Drago are the only one standing while Mico covers his face.

"Hatching up another unoriginal evil scheme? it's been 1 and 3/4 years since you did that". Mico chuckled as he pulls out something from his back, which was the Diamond Greatsword and wields it with 1 hand. He then enveloped his greatsword in electric aura."Let's dance..." Mico said as the other villains teleported away, leaving only Black Entity and Mico alone to fight. Christian and Drago took a few steps back until they are at least 8 meters away from them, as the others that got knock backed by the red and cyan shockwave starts to get back up.

Black Entity produced a red energy blade from his wrist. And just as he did, Mico charged at him, hoping to at least hit him, unfortunately, Black Entity reacted fast enough to block it with his energy blade. They each tried to hit each other with their own weapons, but to no avail. Black Entity teleported away and reappeared a few feet behind him, but Mico uses his hypersonic speed to avoid being hit. Then they finally get their weapons hit each other, both of them gritting their teeth.

Black Entity then widen their distance by using his Superhuman Speed as Mico shrunk himself down to 1.7 meters for much better mobility.

"That obnoxious wit is surpassed only by your overconfidence."

"Helps that I always win."

Forcing agitation down, Black Entity sneered. “Then come get me, if you dare.”

Mico smirked before crouching and pointing his greatsword to black Entity. He clenched his hand to his sword tighter as blue lightning slowly builds up around his sword and pulls it back, before he blasted forward and straight for Black Entity.

The black thing simply awaited his opponent’s imminent arrival, still and unflinching.

Now at maximum speed, Mico then made an impaling motion just as he was about to-

CLANK!

Before he could reach the villain, Mico's sword instead hit a transparent red barrier, stopping him in his tracks and preventing him from getting any closer. His lightning-empowered sword ground against the energy field, producing white-lit sparks.

He pushed forward with all his might, but in the end he was thrown back, landing hard on his rear and skidding roughly across the floor. The Blue Guy shook his slightly throbbing head, attempting to get his bearings again with a half surprised, half pained groan.

“What the..?”

Black Entity laughed from inside his oval-shaped wall of protection. The force field confined him, and his body Harnessing the power of 24 Crystal of Darkness.

“Oh Mico you are so pathetically predictable.” Black Entity said as he laugh with glitchy accent:"H̸̡̹͖͈͈̩͈͈̭̪͇̻͓̲̾̌̉͊̑̏͝͠À̷̮̤͕̌̒̀̍́̈́̚͝H̵̛̛̦̲̣̖͎͍̓̍͊̓̄̊̃́̋̇͑͝A̸̢̭̮̥̩̹̳͉͕̭̜̜̲̹͒Ḩ̷̗͚͖̺̫̫̖̇̀̊̈́̋̔̆̾̈̒͘͠Ả̷̯͇̹͇͋̍̒͗̈̄̃̈̀͘͝͝͠H̵̢͓̤̞̃͜͠ͅͅÃ̸̼̖͒͜Ḩ̶̣̮̞̫̭̠́̋̆Ḁ̴̳̘̥̑ͅH̸̢̳̹̩̦͉̟̱̊̈̋̀͊̚͝À̵̛͙̠̲̍̐Ḣ̵̜͕̪̮̘̬̟͉̠͚͔̯̦̔̂̌́̆̀̈́͂̆͘Ā̷̢̻̠̯̖̘̬̹̫̮̣̤̻̓͆͜͝͠ͅH̵̯̩͊͑̐͂̆̈̈A̷̛̪̮̩̗̗̟̓̈́́̏̓̊͆́̚̕ͅ,̴̲͎͛̍͑̀̓͝ͅ ̷̡̢̼̭̬͔̣̲̒̓̓̋̀̐̃̽̓̏̌̐̓͆̑ͅỌ̶̝̼̑̃͑̃͝͝H̴̛̲̝̯͕͓͙̏̀̾͊́̍̄̒͊Ọ̸͇͍̦̤͎͓̥͊̇̕͜Ḥ̷̠̖̖͗̏̆O̸̠̱̱̫̩̜͕̺̪̺͑̐̊͑̒̀͝Ḧ̵̢̡͈͊̎̅̾̾͒͘Ờ̸͖̪͎͈̈́͐̑̀̀̚̕Ḩ̸̦̗̦̙̑̓͝͠Ȃ̴̻̘̝̝̰̲̩̟̀̃̇̐͒̍͊̂͗̚͠H̶̨̜̗̼̟̜͎͚̹̟̦̤̻̽͛̐̈̋̿̚A̷̧̻̜̪̟̲͕̫̤̘̭̠̿̓̊̓̈̀̇͜Ḩ̷̨̤̖͎͚͎̫̂̋̈͂́̉̆̈̄̓̕A̴̜̼͙̯̣̜̐͐̀̀́́̏͗̽̄̃H̶̡͕͕̯̖̞̺̘͙̠̋͐͛̉̌͌̅͛̉̀̎̓͝͠Ḁ̴̝̗̻̄!̶̧̰̰̗̩͓̓̐!̴̧̢̡̰̩̣̗̦͔̩̈́͒̈͐͜"

Stepping forward to the edge of the barrier, he gave it a few knocks for demonstration. “Impressed? It’s a super durable energy field, powered directly from the radiation emitted by the Crystals. You can try to use blunt force, penetrate it, or use your disorderly magic, you won’t get through it.”

"But do you know how it was this durable? These Crystals have a power that could rival an Elemental Gem, let alone all 11 of them."

Mico stood up again and dusted himself off. “Heh, so that’s the big master plan now, Blacky? Hide out in your little safe zone like a wuss? Hope I give up out of complete boredom?” Mico mocked, resting a fist on his hip which made Black Entity frown. “Pretty anticlimactic, don’t you think?”

Black Entity, however, changes his emotion to grinned. “That is only the first step.”

He began to pace back and forth in front of the force field, mere feet away from Mico.

“I’ve had lots of time to think about the steps for this next project. You know. In that endless dimension you left me trapped in. But low and behold, a random portal eventually opened and allowed my escape. From there, I set about developing my latest work of genius. It was a long, complicated process. Countless computer simulations, probability scenarios, tireless repetitions of different quantum analyses… nothing your feeble little mind could comprehend, of course. I just want you know how hard it was. And more importantly, how rewarding the end result will be.”

The Blue Guy looked on, scowling at Blacky. The Black Spirit’s pacing began to slow as he glowered at Mico with his red pupil-less eyes as Mico's allies just stared at confusion.

“You see Bluey, we’ve been doing this little run around of ours for longer than either of us can remember. How many times have you stepped forth to oppose me and my servants? How many of my brilliant schemes have you undone? How many humiliating defeats have I suffered at your hands? In short, we have grown quite weary of your constant interference. But… one thing appears to be quite clear. We... cannot defeat you. You’ve destroyed, smashed, and pulverized nearly everything we’ve sent your way over the millennias. For some reason, none of our creations have ever been enough, I've been so arrogant to show everyone who's truly the strongest, fastest, toughest and smartest.”

His pace came to a stop and he turned his back on Mico. “As much as it burns my soul to admit… I. Can’t. Beat you.”

Mico for his worth was flabbergasted. His stare got more wide-eyed and questionable with every second of Mico’s monologue. The egotistical villain, the one person on the universe with a bigger ego than Christian, admitting defeat? And why did this speech bring some strange sense of deja vu? It was too surprising for Mico to even muster a witty retort. He just stood there watching. Listening.

“So then, there’s only one option left.” Black Entity proceeded to ready to cast a random spell with Dark Red Aura around his body, immediately putting Mico on guard. “If I can’t defeat you, I’ll just have to send you away. Forever.”

Black Entity then clapped a single time.

In an instant, he distanced his hands from eachother before a purple energy orb appeared between them, after a few seconds, Mico turned his head multiple times, recognizing what power will Blacky use. Then the purple orb shoot magenta, red and purple colored energy blasts that creates portals from all over the place.

One by one, his friends got sucked in on the portals.
Drago first, then Christian, Henry, JR, Justin and all of them except for Mico.

Then the sound of portal right behind him caught his ears, he turned to see a portal to another world. "What are all of these portals?"

Safe behind the force field, Black Entity gave a smug look. “Those, Bluey, are portals to dimensional rift. A small tear in the fabric of time and space itself. And I will use it to send you to your doom along with your pitiful friends.”

"In all honesty, I have no idea where it will send you. Perhaps to a world where the inhabitants have mutated into hideous creatures of the night where Umbra resides. Perhaps to a frozen, uninhabited world where you’ll slowly starve to death… if you don’t freeze first, and also that's probably where both Frost Spirit and Krampus live. Maybe you’ll warp right into a volcanic planet as hot as Molten Boss, which you really like to call it. Or the cold, endless vacuum of space. Whatever the case may be, you will be gone, oh perpetual thorn in my side. Never again to interfere in my plans.”

Mico then smirk, "Oh I know, if not then..." In a instant, he turned slightly transparent to go through the forcefield and punch Black Entity, instantly deactivating the forcefield. Unfortunately, Black Entity got up as quickly as he can and blasted Mico with a red colored ball of energy, knocking him completely in the other side of the portal and rendered him unconsious, then the portal is closing extremely slow.

Blacky turned his back to his old foe. A mad grin split across his face as an unbridled sense of triumph welled up inside him. Today marked a black day for all the denizens of this universe, and the beginning of a glorious era of the his Empire.

They had done it.

His hated enemies was gone.

He finally won.

“Farewell, Mico and Friends.”
> Friendship is Magic Part 1
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Black Entity’s deranged laughter echoed across the walls of his base. He’d done it. At long last he’d finally done it. His millennia-long nemesis Mico Diamondhero was gone. Whisked away through an endless void in space. Now, there was nothing that could stand in his way. The world was now his for the taking.

Blacky was so busy in his victory that he failed to notice the static crackling behind him. Turning, the glory the villain revealed in quickly turned to frightened alarm. The mini portal that had spirited away his arch enemy had not disappeared. It still hung in midair, pulsing and sparking with energy.

Suddenly, instead of the portal closed already, it grew instead. The Crystals shining brightly as they emitted red, purple color of electricity and the power too great for him to contain. A few seconds later, Black Entity was being pulled towards the portal.

"What?!" Wide eyed, he tried to fly away as fast as he could, but the suction is too strong, much like Mico before him. He and the 2 other villains are sucked into the portal."N̵̤̠̿͐̆̇̀̓́̃͆̓́̕Ó̸̢͍̬͙̳̻̦͎̠̦̜̦̔̌̾̐̽͛̓̒̒̕Ö̷̤̺̣͉͇̹̦̲́̔͊́̽͑̏̿O̷͇̊̏̑̅̓͑͑̕͠O̶͕̙̣̼͎̩̳̊̀̈́̒̓́͌O̸̢͇̺͎̹̱̬̳̅̊̓̀̍̍̌̃͛́̈́̐͊͝͝O̶̩̮̅̈́Ô̵̼͎͂OOOOOooooooooooooooo"

Both the heroes and villains were now sucked away to parts unknown. And the multiple chunks and debris got tore by the explosion of closing portal.





The narrator describes two royal sisters who ruled over the magical land of Equestria. The elder sister used her powers to raise the sun, while the younger sister brought out the moon at night. The younger sister became resentful because the ponies of Equestria relished daytime but slept at night. One night, she refused to lower the moon. She transformed into Nightmare Moon, a "wicked mare of darkness," and vowed to shroud Equestria in eternal night. Her sister used the Elements of Harmony to banish her to the moon, and took on responsibility for both sun and moon. The narrator’s voice changes to that of Twilight Sparkle, who reads that harmony has been maintained in Equestria ever since.

However, a red, purple and magenta colored portal opened above the Everfree Forest, and it 3 beings jumped out from it.

The first one being a pegasus with indigo coat, yellow-colored bare hooves, black eyes, yellow mane with violet and black stripe, yellow wings, black and white tail. His name is Macoy Diamondhero. He's also only as tall as Pinkie. Has the design of Big Mac and RD's mane and Braeburn's tail.



The second being a unicorn with blue coat, light blue bare hooves, yellow eyes, black mane and tail with cyan and teal stripes, cyan horn with green stripes, headphones and legrings. U already know his name, Mico Diamondhero. Has the design of Lyra and Bonbon's mane and RD's tail(Possibly), is around the height of Shining Armor.


And the 3rd one is Black Entity.

"aaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAA̵̛̛͙̘͓̬̼̗͕̙͑͒̅̈́͗͐͋̏̈̐͆͝Ḁ̶̡͇̝̺̓͂̎́͆̚̕À̵̡̢̲̭͖̦̻̳̝͙̰̪͓̦̓̃̓̈́̅̃́͋͆̎͘̕͝H̵̢̧̛̳̠̞͇̟̙̖̟͚̞̋̅̍͘̚͘̚͠͝Ḥ̵̢͙̳̯̂̀͒̄̍́̊̉̅̈́̉̚̚H̵͈͓͉̮̪͔̦̪͕̍̓̏̍̈́̀̓̇͗̃̔͂͝Ḧ̵͓̪̤́̈̆̃́͊͝͝H̴̱̳̼͌H̷̩̬̘̘̄̐̓̈́!!

The blue screaming mass came plummeting out of the wormhole. Mico could do nothing to stop himself as he plummeted through the air. It was a long drop from midway in the sky to the ground. With his body turning and his arms flailing and spinning in circles, he could only watch the ground get closer and closer until—

SLAM! The blue unicorn landed face first in the ground. His body and legs jerked still behind him for a few seconds upon impact, creating the comedic image of him nearly completely upside down with his face in the dirt. Another second and the rest of him would collapse onto the ground too. Picking his face out of the ground and pushing himself up to his knees, Sonic held his head with a pained groan. “Augh… why is it always the face..?”

"aaaaaaAAHHHHHHHH!!"

Mico look up to see Macoy falling too, fortunately at the last second, he uses his wings to avoid coming into contact with the ground. "Wow, i have wings" The Indigo pony said.

"What?" Mico talked back, as he still rubbing his head and trying to shake the cobwebs from his dazed vision. When his vision is clear, they immediately wide-eyed, looking at his body, Mico is shocked to see his body was a pony with a horn in his head, while he look up to Macoy, who was a winged pony. "What have we become?" Mico said shockingly. Macoy also goes wide-eyed.

"Why did we become these?!"

"I don't know"

Mico suddenly heard a sound coming towards them, they turn to the direction of sound to see Black Entity's red colored magic bolt going towards them.

Macoy quickly reacted by deflecting it with his wings. Black Entity couldn't react fast enough as the magic bolt shot back at him. "Aaaaaah!!!" Black Entity shouted before getting hit by the magic bolt, sending him flying. Both Macoy and Mico we're shock at what the former just did.

"How did I do that?!" Macoy said while Mico looked in confusion. "Did you forgot, we are super durable, so that's how you did that". Mico answered.

"I think it is best if we need to get some help from the locals of this... world". Mico said



Twilight walks by Lemon Hearts, Twinkleshine, and Minuette, who invite her to Moon Dancer's party. Twilight says she has to study and runs off.

She enters a library atop an ivory tower and instructs Spike to find a book called Predictions and Prophecies. Twilight realizes that Nightmare Moon will return on the day of the Summer Sun Celebration, which is the day after tomorrow. She sends a letter to Princess Celestia to alert her. Celestia's reply to Twilight says that she trusts Twilight completely, but she has to stop reading "those dusty old books".

Once they reach Ponyville, Twilight and Spike visit Sweet Apple Acres to check on the catering for the Summer Sun Celebration first. Applejack cordially greets Twilight, and members of her family offer her food samples. Twilight wants to leave, but she grudgingly accepts the family’s invitation to stay for brunch.

After brunch, Twilight looks at the cloudy sky and remarks that Rainbow Dash isn't doing a very good job of clearing the sky for the festival. Rainbow Dash says she will do it after she practices some flying moves to show the Wonderbolts at the festival. She demonstrates her speed and agility by clearing the sky in "ten seconds flat." She says she can’t wait to hang out with Twilight some more, and flies away.

Twilight and Spike visit Rarity, who is decorating the town hall. Spike is instantly smitten with Rarity. She is shocked by Twilight's messy mane and gives her a makeover in Carousel Boutique. She is impressed when Twilight mentions that she is from Canterlot. Eager to get away from the fashionista, Twilight and Spike sneak out of the boutique.

The last item to check for the Summer Sun Celebration is music. Twilight greets Fluttershy and compliments her bird choir, but Fluttershy is too shy to introduce herself. However, she gets excited when she sees Spike because she has never seen a baby dragon before. She follows Twilight and Spike to Golden Oak Library, where they will be staying.

Inside the library, Twilight and Spike are greeted with a surprise party. Pinkie Pie, the pink pony Twilight encountered earlier, starts talking to Twilight about how she was surprised to see a new pony in town and decided to throw her a party. Twilight accidentally drinks hot sauce and runs out of the room with her mane on fire. In her bedroom on the second floor, Twilight complains that making friends has left her no time to read about the Elements of Harmony. She guesses that Princess Celestia sent her to Ponyville because she thinks the Mare in the Moon is just an "old pony's tale."

In the town hall, Mayor Mare announces the beginning of the Summer Sun Celebration, but Princess Celestia is absent. Nightmare Moon steps out of a glowing blue fog and addresses the cowering ponies, "Am I not royal enough for you? Don't you know who I am?"

Rainbow Dash tries to fly towards Nightmare Moon, but Applejack pulls her back. Pinkie tries to guess Nightmare Moon's name, but Applejack shoves a cupcake in her mouth to stop her from doing so. Twilight declares that the dark Alicorn is the Mare in the Moon— Nightmare Moon. Impressed, Nightmare Moon asks Twilight if she also knows why she's here, but Twilight is too terrified to answer. Nightmare Moon proclaims that the night will last forever, and cackles as a thunderstorm builds up around her, with Twilight looking on in disbelief and fear.



Far away from Ponyville, Mico and Macoy was running/flying towards the town, leaving blue and indigo trail of bright lights. They, however, see something suspicious. They looked to see Nightmare Moon on one of the windows of the town hall.

Play:Sonic Frontiers-I'm Here(Instrumental, start from 00:28)

"Now there's something else too." Both of them said in unison. "Hey, I said it first!!" They both said again in unison. Then Macoy started a fight between them by attempting to ram to mico, who dodged it by teleporting in a cyan flash. Mico fired yellow magic bolts but was deflected by Macoy's wings. After this happened, both of them zoomed into eachother, leaving blue/indigo trail of blue lights again, colliding with each other, with each collision interval getting faster and faster every second, until Mico dodges the collision with Macoy and held him in place with cyan aura enveloping both of them. "S̸̢͍̭̝̮̤̔͂͜T̷̮̳͎̽ͅO̶̬̬͎͛̍̓̄͑P̴̫̺̩̮͖̽́͋̇͋̈́̃̾͒̊̍̕̕͘ ̴̭̫̹̬̫̜̰́̽̏͊̋͑͜͝T̵̨̳̰̤̹͓̟͇̫̼̱̐̏́͜͝Ḧ̷̜̥̍̀̊̉͑̾̂͐̕͠I̶̧̡̲̤̹͍̼̙̩̻̿͗̔̑̓̉̏̔̚͜͜Ṣ̷̢̧̧͇̺̼͚̭̬͕̬̥̝̺͆̀͆̏̏̐͆̍̿̃̅̓͝ ̸̛̭̜̱̬̹̪̻̜̍̉̑́́͠N̸̢̨̛͚̖͇̩̻̰̬̹̺͓̱̮̩͑͗͊̒̎̈͊̉̄̌̔̑͂͠Ǫ̷̯̻̪̠̰̜̬̖̟̙̺̣̈́̾̅͒́͘͘W̵͙͂" Mico said in a glitchy tone loud enough to be heard by everyone. Macoy breaks out of the grip and zooms in to Mico, sending both of them to the walls of the town hall.

(Stop music at 00:50)

Everyone inside the town hall look in awe and confusion of where that voice comes from until the silence was broken when both Mico and Macoy crashes into a wall, both of them were disoriented from the impact until-

"u̶̬̯͇̼̹̥͓̅h̸͚̱̺̰̳͛͜h̵̛̹̳͙̃̌͋͑̿h̴̲̝̘̤͔̩̾͌h̷͈̞̏͗̽̓͝͝.̶̲͍̰̈́̑̃̊̏́.̶̳͕̠͇̎̐͝.̸̻̝͍͓̈́͑ ̵̙͕̭̯̣̻̽́͘̕͝n̷̡̮̪͙͖̜̗̾̀̑̚̚e̵̳̒̓̌̕į̶̘͚͖̦̗͎͊̕g̶̱̖̠̏͆̐̃͝h̷̺̘̎̀̚͠" Mico said after getting his senses back, Macoy also looked up to gasp with glitchy tone in awe and shock, not by the crowd, but after seeing Nightmare Moon.

But unbeknownst to everyone, even for Nightmare Moon, an earth pony wearing brown robe is slowly walking to the crowd, after seeing both Mico and Macoy nearby a destroyed wall, he then smirked. "Looks like he's here, and yin yangy too" he whispered, only a few ponies heared that, but don't mind that voice. He then climbed on the roof which no one notices him, "Nightmare Moon, what ya gonna do, what you gonna do?" He whispered, then again, Nightmare Moon barely heard that.
> Friendship is Magic part 2
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nightmare Moon then laughed. the robed figure, who was sticking in the ceiling sighed "This might not end well".

Mayor Mare yelled "Seize her! Only she knows where the Princess is!"

The robed figure whispered again "whelp, time to do my thing."

Nightmare Moon yelled "Stand back, you foals-"

The robed figure jumped down and lands not too far away from her, his disguise was accidently taken off by a gust of wind from Mico, who was nervous. The robed figure revealed itself as a stallion with yellow coat, lime bare hooves, green scarf, blue bat pony eyes, his mane is shaped like Braeburn and Big Mac, which has a color of blue, green, orange and red, his tail is Scootaloo's which is blue with yellow stripes. He stood between the height of Mico and Macoy. Both of them instantly recognized him. Everyone stood there silent.
JR Diamondhero


"Goldy!" Both of them shouted followed by Nightmare Moon's comment

"And who are you suppose to be?"

"I don't know." JR answered, earning a quiet snickers from Mico and Macoy, Nightmare Moon shushed them both, which they do so. She shoots a magic blast to him, he stood there until he take notice. He look a her calmly before deflecting the blast with nothing but his right bare hoof.

Both Mico and Macoy had a smirk, Nightmare Moon and the crowd look in shock, she failed to notice Mico punching her with blue shockwave appearing where he punched her with small force.

But was able to knock her nearby to the glowing blue fog where she comes out before, Mico had a sweat runs down from his head, while catching his breath. Nightmare Moon turns into a glowing blue fog while laughing.

The 6 certain group of ponies had a chill run down their spines, Mico catches his breath while Twilight and the other ponies look in shock. He tried to give chase but Macoy and JR held him in place with their own powers.

Twilight and her group approached the trio while saying "Stop, I know you're angry, but you need to calm down so we can come up a plan first."

Mico frowned before changing his mind. "Fine." he said annoyed

"Come on we need to head back to the library!" Twilight said



"Elements, elements, elements... Ugh! How can we stop Nightmare Moon without the Elements of Harmony?" Twilight said in frustration.

"Maybe if we get actual serious we could do this." JR said calmly

"Now you three!" Rainbow said, getting the trio's attention. "Introduce yourselves!"

"You girls first!" The trio said in unison

"Okay, my name is Twilight Sparkle and these are my new friends Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and my number one assistant Spike." Twilight introduced while pointing at each of her friends while saying their names.

"Well, my name.. is Mico Diamondhero." Mico introduced first, earning an odd look from Rainbow.

"Now mine, I am JR Diamondhero and this is Macoy and you already know his last name, same with 2 of us."

Rainbow, along with the other 5 gave the siblings a mix of expression: Rainbow has a mocking smile, Twilight has flat expression, Rarity have no idea while the rest are confused.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, the 3 of them have that kind of name HAHAHAHAHAHAH, why have the same last name HAHAHAHA-" Rainbow laughed, but stopped when she saw Macoy has an angry expression while having indigo glow in his pupils.

Rainbow gulped but shook her head. "And just what are the Elements of Harmony?" Rainbow Dash asked Twilight, "And how did you know about Nightmare Moon, huh? Are you a spy? Whoa!"

Applejack pulled Dash back by her tail, "Simmer down, Sally. She ain't no spy, but she sure knows what's going on. Don't you, Twilight?" Twilight looked at all of them.

"I read all about the prediction of Nightmare Moon. Some mysterious objects called the Elements of Harmony are the only things that can stop her, but I don't know what they are, where to find them; I don't even know what they do!"

'Hmm, they sounded familiar' Mico thought, same with JR and Macoy

"The Elements of Harmony: A Reference Guide." Pinkie said and Twilight pushed her aside,

How did you find that?!" Twilight asked

Pinkie said in a sing-song, "It was under 'E'!"

Mico let out an annoyed groan, "How did WE not think about looking under 'E'!?"

Is he always like this when he's angry?" Applejack asked JR

"Actually as far as I know, he rarely becomes angry, same with being sad or hating things." JR responded.

After what JR said Mico realized how he was acting and began to feel bad.

He has disability of not feeling those 3 emotion.

He took a deep breath, "Sorry, I'm just having something stuck in my mind, as if it's telling me to do something I don't want."

"You've got to be joking!" Said a astonished Rainbow Dash.

"It's true," Mico confessed, "I've never felt that emotion before, only Black Entity made me do that. Going back on topic, what does the book say Twilight?"

"Huh? Oh!" Twilight said as she was taken off guard, "There are six Elements of Harmony, but only five are really known: Kindness, Laughter, Generosity, Honesty, and Loyalty. The sixth is a complete mystery. It's said the last known location of the five Elements was the ancient castle of The Royal Pony Sisters, located in what is now The Everfree Forest."

"'The Everfree Forest'!" Everyone but Mico, JR and Macoy gulped in unison.



We now see the 6 mares and 3 young-looking stallions just outside the Everfree Forest, everyone but Mico, JR and Macoy seemed a bit nervous looking at the mix of moss-covered trees and brushes.

"Boy,I always feel a bit of a rush whenever I go to somewhere I've been to before!" Mico said in an excited tone.

"Me too, 🎶I always like dangers in the fooooooorreeeeeest🎶!!" JR sang.

"Well what are we waiting for?" Pinkie asked as she made her way towards the forest, "Let's go!"

"Not so fast Pinkie." Twilight said causing said mare to stop,"Look, I appreciate the offer, but I'd really rather do this on my own.."

"No can do sugarcube," Applejack protested, "There's no way we're letting friends of ours go into that creepy place by themselves. We're sticking to you two like caramel on a candy apple!" The others murmured in agreement with her.


"She's right Twilight," Mico said, "Although I'm more than capable of protecting us 4, I have the feeling the more of us there are, the better."

"Especially if there are candy apples in there." Everyone gave Pinkie an odd look. "What? Those things are good." Pinkie said in an excited tone.

Twilight looked at Mico who simply shrugged. She then sighed in defeat.


 
Little while after they entered the Forest Twilight asked,"So, none of you have been in here before?"

"Ugh, heavens no! Just look at it - it's dreadful." Rarity gaged.

"Ain't natural is what it is." Applejack added, "Folks say it don't act the same as the rest of Equestria."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Twilight looked around uneasily.

"Nooopony knows." Rainbow Dash said in a spooky tone, grinning as she stalked towards Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie, "Ya know why?"

"Knock it off Rainbow Dash." Applejack said.

Rainbow ignored her, "'Cause nopony who's ever come in...has ever...come...OUT!"

"If this is the forest you're talking about, it doesn't scare me, because you know why." Macoy said bravely, "Me and Mico had landed here via a portal before."

If she hoped to scare them,but she didn't get to see, because at that moment, the ground they were on suddenly gave out from under them. Rainbow, Macoy and Fluttershy were able to go airborn, but the rest of the group were sent screaming as they slid down a steep cliff!

"Hang on!" Mico said as he used spindash to grab Rarity and wedge himself into the ground. Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were able to catch Pinkie, but Twilight and Applejack continued towards the sudden drop. Applejack was lucky enough to grab an exposed root, but Twilight wasn't as lucky and continued to slide. JR was caught by Macoy.

"Hold on! I'm a-comin'!" AJ said sliding down once again and reaching out her front hooves, "Grab on."

Twilight did just that just in time as the cliff disappeared from underneath her. Luckily, thanks to the exposed root, Applejack slowed down enough to come to a stop just at the cliff's edge.

"Applejack!" Twilight grunted, trying to get a hoofhold on the rocks, "What do I do?!"

The farm pony glanced around as if searching for an answer before looking her in the eye, "Let go."

"WHAT!?" Twilight glared, "Are you out of your mind!?"

"No. I promise, you'll be safe."

"That's not true!"

"Now listen here; what Ah'm sayin' here is the honest truth." She replied in a reassuring tone, "Let go and you'll be safe."

Twilight was prepared to say she was nuts, but for some reason she couldn't help but feel a measure of trust at what was said. With a second glance to Applejack, she took a deep breath...

And followed the advice.

"Twilight!" Mico yelled as he saw her suddenly drop with Applejack looking over the edge.

"YAAAHHH!" Twilight screamed as she plummeted down. (Though she trusted Applejack's word, it still didn't mean the fall wasn't scary!) She wasn't sure how long she fell, but she was aware enough to feel her descent suddenly slow down. Risking a look, she cracked open an eye to see Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy had a hold of her, although Fluttershy seemed to struggling to hold her weight and accidently caused Twilight to fall the rest of the way (which was only 5 feet).

"Sorry," Fluttershy apologized,"I'm not used to carrying anything bigger than a bunny."

"Twilight!" Mico called as he ran against the cliff wall like it was solid ground with Rarity in his arms to reach her. Once they where in front of Twilight, Mico let Rarity down and asked,"Are you alright!?"

"Yeah I am," Twilight said,"You'd have to thank Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy for that."

Once everyone was on the bottom of the cliff, everypony gathered around Mico and his siblings, impressed at how he got himself and Rarity down the cliff.

"That was awesome!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed, "How where you able to run on the cliff wall like that!?"

"Well due to the speed us siblings moves at,we can create enough friction to run along any surface, whenever it's slippery or rough." JR responded, only confusing the six mares more.

"I'm running so fast, I can run on anything like it was solid ground, JR and Macoy could do that too, except Macoy's not having enough speed to catch up." Mico explained in a simpler way.

"Oooooh!" the 5 mares said finally understanding, much to Twilight's annoyance.

"We better keep moving," Macoy said,"Those Elements of Harmony aren't going to find themselves."

Everypony nodded and they continued deeper into the Forest.



The group was continuing to make their way through the Forest. That is, until they all heard a loud roar.

"What was that!?" Twilight asked shakenly.

Her question was answered when a large lion-like beast, sporting wings and a scorpion tail,jumped from out the bushes and right in front of them.

"A manticore!" Twilight yelled as said beast charged at them.

After the group moved out of the way Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Twilight attacked the manicore. JR was about to fight it as well but he felt something didn't feel right. Almost like the manicore didn't mean them harm.

"Girls wait!" He said trying to gain their attention but they were too focused on the manicore they didn't hear him.

Rainbow Dash circled the beast creating a rainbow tornado, but the manicore used it's tail and struck her,causing her to fall to the ground. Applejack he got on it's back and started to ride it. It didn't last long as the manicore with a powerful jump, made Applejack fall off. Twilight then tried using magic blasts on the beast but it hardly had any affect.

"Stop!" Fluttershy yelled, catching everyone's attention.

With everyone no longer attacking the manicore, Fluttershy and the 3 stallions then made their way towards it.

"Fluttershy, wait" Rainbow Dash called.

"Mico, JR, Macoy, what are you doing?" Twilight asked with great worry.

"Shhh... It's okay." Fluttershy said in a calm voice.

"Here let me get that." JR said as he reached for it's front left paw and showed the manicore it had a thorn embedded in it.

"Oh! You poor little thing!" Fluttershy said with concern.

"Little!?" Rainbow Dash responded with disbelief.

"Now this might hurt a little, but everything will be fine." Fluttershy said.

JR then grabbed the thorn and in a quick motion, yanked it out of the manicore's paw causing it to roar loudly.

The manticore then picked JR and Fluttershy up, letting out another loud roar as it did...then proceeded to lick their faces, purring happily.

"Ooh, you're just a little kitty, aren't you? Yes, you are! Yes, you are!" She giggled.

"You sure are the coolest cat I've ever seen." JR said as he scratched behind one of it's ears.

"How are they DOING that!?" Twilight whispered, "That's a MANTICORE! A large, cranky chunk of fauna! Just...I mean...it's...HOW!?" Both Mico and Macoy were smirking, much to the 5 other mare's confusion.

After the manicore put them down, it then made it's way back through the bushes it appeared from.

"Guys, how did you know about the thorn?" Twilight asked.

"I Didn't." Fluttershy answered, "Sometimes we all just need a little kindness."

"We are about to say the same thing." Mico, Macoy and JR said in unison.

Twilight furrowed her brow in though briefly, then simply smiling before following



"Any idea how far we've gone?" JR asked as they continued their trek, "Feels like we've been going for miles."

"I wish I knew. The Everfree's never really been measured." Twilight answered him.

"Either way, I hope we get there soon." Rarity threw in her two bits, "My eyes need a rest from looking at all this awful muck." Her wish was answered when the forest canopy quickly became too thick for the moonlight to pass through, leaving them in complete darkness, "Well...I-I didn't mean literally!"

"Ugh, we could be right by the ruins and not even know it!" Twilight muttered as they all began feeling about blindly.

The group was blindly continued until...

*squish*

"Wait, Ah think Ah stepped in something."

It was then that Fluttershy let out an ear-splitting scream.

"It's just mud..." Applejack said, until she turned and saw exactly what made the pegasus shriek:

Right in front of her stood a monstrous, fang-lined maw.

"Ah!" She yelped, jumping back.

They quickly realized there were more; all around them were malevolent, snarling faces, every one of them baring jagged teeth and mouths large enough to fit a pony.

Then of all things they heard laughter and saw Pinkie in front of one of the faces.

"Pinkie get away from there." Twilight warned.

"Oh girls and boys, don't you see?" She started to dance as music played, "When I was a little filly and the sun was going down..."

"Tell me she's not..." Twilight deadpanned.

"The darkness and the shadows, they would always make me frown..."

"She is? and I'm used to scary things." Mico said.

"I'd hide under my pillow, from what I thought I saw, but Granny Pie said that wasn't the way, to deal with fears at all."

"Then what is?"Twilight asked.

"She said, 'Pinkie, you gotta stand up tall, learn to face your fears."

"You'll see that they can't hurt you, just laugh to make them disappear.' Ha! Ha! Ha!" Her laughter turned the trees back to normal making them all gasp, "So, giggle at the ghostly, guffaw at the grossly, crack up at the creepy, whoop it up with the weepy, chortle at the kooky, snortle at the spooky, and tell that big dumb scary face to take a hike and leave you alone and if he thinks he can scare you then he's got another thing coming and the very idea of such a thing just makes you wanna laugh!"

Soon enough everyone was laughing at the trees,while Twilight was confused as to how that worked.



After getting past the trees, the ground then comes across a river.

"How are we going to get past THIS?" Pinkie asked.

Macoy was about to say something when they heard loud sobbing nearby.

Pushing through a nearby bush revealed the source. In the water was a bawling sea serpent with what looked like an orange pompadour. His writhing and thrashing seemed to also be the cause of the churning rapids, "Oh, what a world! What a world!" He wailed.

The group looked at him for a moment until JR spoke up,"Hey big guy, why you so upset?"

"Oh, it's awful!" The serpent replied, "I was setting here, minding my OWN business, mind you, when this tacky little purple cloud of smoke zipped past and ripped half of my beloved mustache clean off!" He lowered his head to show them the tuft that remained.

"Ouch..!" Mico winced, "That had to sting."

"And now...I look simply HORRIBLE!" He fell back into the water, dousing all them with the splash.

"Gimmie a break!" Rainbow muttered.

"Huh?" Mico questioned

Applejack looked at him incredulously, "That's what this is all about!?"

"Well of COURSE it is!" Rarity replied indignantly, "How can you be so insensitive!?" She sauntered up to him, "Oh just look at him; such lovely luminescent scales!"

The sea serpent sniffled, "I know."

"And your expertly coiffed mane."

"Oh I know, I know."

"Your fabulous manicure."

He gasped, "It's so true."

"All ruined without your beautiful mustache."

"It's true, I'm hideous!"

"I simply cannot let such a crime against fabulousity go uncorrected!" With that, she grabbed hold of one of his scales and yanked it off.

"OWIE!" The serpent yelped, "What did you do that for!?"

"Rarity what are you ...?" Mico started.

*SHINK!*

With a swing, Rarity brought the sharp edge of the scale down on her tail, cutting it off almost to the dock. (and causing the serpent to almost faint in the process).

"OH-hohoho!" He squealed in glee, "My mustache!"

"Simply smashing!" She smiled.

"Rarity, your beautiful tail!" Twilight and JR spoke up in concern.

"Oh, it's quite alright, my dear. Short tails are in this season, Besides, it'll grow back."

"Well, either way, the river's settled down now!" Twilight said trotting out into the water, "We can make it across now!"

Suddenly she found herself raised up on the sea serpent's back.

"Allow me!" He said, diving his head back under to give them a complete bridge.

Once across, they continued onward.

"Ah'm glad that's over with." Applejack sighed in relief.

"Same." Mico grinned, "Though, I do have one thing to say. "

"What?"

"Well, I'm just remembering it; but before we got distracted by that guy's hair problem... We could just used my powers or magic in this body and teleported us to the other side."

He got several blank looks in return.

At least, until Rainbow Dash's scream of "ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?" Echoed through the forest.



After pulling themselves back together--and getting Rainbow to not bang her head against the nearest rock--they soon found themselves at their destination.

"There it is." Mico said,"Princess Celestia and Luna's old castle.

"The ruin that holds The Elements of Harmony. We made it!" Twilight cheered

"Twilight, wait for us!" Applejack said.

"We're almost there. Whoa!" Twi shouted as she nearly fell off the cliff,
Dash pulled her back up by her tail, "What's with you and falling off cliffs today?"

Pinkie sighed, "Now what?"

Raindow Dash flapped her wings, "Duh."

"Oh yeah."

Rainbow Dash dove down to grab the bridge's loose end and carry it back over. She began to tie it when a voice called out from somewhere.

"Raiiinnnbooow."

"W-wha? Who's there!?"

"Raaaaaiiiinbooooow."

"I ain't scared of you! Show yourself!"

"We've been eagerly awaiting the arrival of the best flyer in Equestria."

"Who?"

"Why, you, of course."

"Really?! I mean... Oh yeah, me. Hey, uh, you wouldn't mind telling the Wonderbolts that, would ya? 'cause I've been trying to get into that group for like, ever."

No, Rainbow Dash. We want you to join us..." Three pegasi appeared, "The Shadowbolts. We're the greatest aerial team in the Everfree Forest, and soon we will be the greatest in all Equestria..." The female flew next to Dash, "But first, we need a captain." Dash's eyes sparkled. "The most magnificent-"

"Yep."

"Swiftest-"

"Yes."

"Bravest flyer in all the land."

Dash chuckled, "Yes, it's all true."

"We need..." She whispered the last part in Dash's ear, "You."

Dash flew up, "WOOHOO! Sign me up. Just let me tie this bridge real quick and then we have a deal."

Dash said reaching for the rope, but the female blocked her, "No! It's them or us."

Twilight shouted over, "Rainbow, what's taking so long?" She spotted the three pegasi, "Oh no. Rainbow!" The female eye's glowed making the fog block their view, and made Twilight's last words a bit muffled, "Don't listen to them." Dash thought hard.
"Well?"

"You..." The female looked pleased she won.

"Thank you! For the offer, I mean." Dash said tieng the rope on the peg, "But I'm afraid I have to say no." Dash flew off and the three pegasi vanished in a cloud of purple smoke, her friends cheered as they saw Dash fly back to them, they started to cross as Dash flew next to them, "See? I'd never leave my friends hangin'."



The group finally make it inside where in the center of the room stood a large stone statue with five arms radiating out. On each one sat an orb with a jewel shape engraved on it.

"Come on, Twilight." Applejack said, "This is what you've been waitin' fer, right?"

"The Elements of Harmory, we finally found them." Twilight said full of hope, she then used her magic to put them to ground level.

“But there’s only five!” Rarity said with despair. “Where’s the sixth one!?”

“The book said when all the other ones are present; the sixth one will appear in some sort of spark.” She crouched down and lit up her horn. “Stand back, I’ll see what I can do.”

“Let’s go, everypony,” said Applejack. “We’d better guard th’ door in case Nightmare Moon shows up or something."

They were about to leave when a dark mist started to form around Twilight.

"Twilight!" Macoy called as he ran beside her only for them both to be engulfed by the mist.

"Where did they go!?" Applejack asked with great concern.



Twilight and Macoy coughed against the purple smoke as they reappeared in a room that only the two of them occupied. At first. At the other end of the room, upon a raised section of floor where a broken throne resided, stood Nightmare Moon, the five Elements circling around her in lazy orbit. The dark royal herself laughed in victory: she had acquired that which had defeated her long ago! Now nothing could stop her!

"You fools," Nightmare Moon laughed,"Did you really think I'd make it that easy for you to defeat me!?"

Macoy got into a fighting stance as he looked on towards the Nightmare. “Hey! Laughing while not winning, you must be going easy! Fight us first!” Twilight’s own look of shock quickly morphed into one of determination as she scrapped a hoof against the stone floor inspired by Macoy’s words.


Nightmare Moon didn’t know what to make of it as she lowered the Elements to the cold stone, “You’re kidding. You’re kidding, right?”

"Oh I'm deadly serious!" The indigo pony said as he seemed to be ready to charge at Nightmare Moon along with Twilight.

"I've had about enough of both of you!" Yelled Nightmare Moon as she charged at them.

Twilight lit up her horn and disappeared, while Macoy blocked Nightmare Moon with his special wings. He teleported as well and reappeared surrounded by the Elements.

Didn't see that coming did you?" Macoy asked with a smirk.

Nightmare Moon gasped in temporary bewilderment as her opponents sudden disappearance and reappearance amongst the gathered Elements. The dark mare growled: she had been made a fool of again! Oh, the Unicorn would pay dearly for this, as would that damnable pegasus!

Twilight’s horn began to shine once again as she attempted to activate the gathered Elements, “Just one spark: come on, come on!”

Seeing the Elements beginning to glow, Nightmare Moon shrouded herself in her mane and quickly swooped back to the Elements: she would not be defeated again! Seconds after returning to her equine visage, a bolt of raw magic from the Elements struck Twilight and Macoy, sending them flying halfway across the room into a sprawling heap. The Elements continued to transfer the magic between them as Nightmare Moon fell into a panic.

Moments later, the Elements returned to their inert stone spheres, the magic leaving them.

Nightmare Moon’s panic quickly turned to elation as she rose up and brought her empowered hooves down upon the Elements, laughing wickedly the entire time. Twilight felt her hope, as well as her heart, shatter along with the Elements. Nightmare Moon glared at the mare, “You little foals: thinking you could defeat me! Now you will never see your princess or your sun,” her mane extended high above her, ready to bring it down upon the broken Unicorn and send her into oblivion, “The night will last forever!”

Her evil laughter rang out once more...

Only to get interrupted by a heavily placed kick to the side of her face, sending her flying away towards the wall. "Don't think you've won yet, as long as I'm still standing, there's no way I'm going to let you win, even if it cost my life!" Macoy said.

The look in indignation crossed the mares face as she stood up, her anger flaring out of control. “YOU FOALISH CREATURE! YOU WILL BE THE FIRST TO SUMBIT UNDER MY HOOF!!”

"You better stand back Twilight!" Macoy warned, "Because things are definitely going to take the turn for the worst!" His violet stripes glowed while his eyes glowed indigo, as a sign of being near to unlocking his true power.



"Come on y'all, they need are help!" Applejack said as they ran their way up the steps to where the soon to be battle will take place.

"Oh I hope they are alright." Rarity said.



Nightmare Moon made the first move by sending bolts of magic towards Macoy, who had no problem since he deflected them with his hooves and wings. Once he saw an opening, Macoy shot a light magic chain at Nightmare Moon that struck her in the chest and gripping her body tight. Angered by the hit, she teleported, and reappeared without the yellow glowing chains. Nightmare Moon shot bolts in every direction hoping to hit Macoy. Although it's was harder, Sonic was still able to dodge them but had a hard time finding an opening again.

While Macoy was distracted, Nightmare Moon charged a magic beam and when she saw the perfect moment, fired it at him, digging him into the floor. Much to her shock though, Macoy got back up like nothing happened although he didn't wince atleast once.

Which got him hit by a magic blast from her, knocking him back.

"You fool! You just underestimated me. You.. will.. submit."

Macoy struggled to get back up, he raised his head looking at Nightmare Moon which made his pupils glow indigo, Y̶͔̙͓͈̍̽̓̑̚̕ͅǪ̶̧̠̟̮̝̞̗̟̌͗̅̃̚̚̕U̴̧̝͎̣͊ ̶̡̲͈̥̺̥͖̓̍̑̿͌̅͠D̵̳͉̠̤̮̝̬̗̞͍̯̺̒̍̈̂͋̆͆̏̚̚͝Ą̸̼̩͍̗̜̮̻͔̙̯́̍̎̿͐̎̚̕͝͝͝ͅR̶̡̪̦̊̉̇̑͐́̆̇̔͝Ȩ̸͖̓͊̿̀͂̈͆̉̈́̈́̈́̕̕Ḑ̵̇͑̀̈̅͋͝ ̸̡̛̹̖̜̠̰̰̃̔̈̎͊̐͊̀͒͗̚̚T̶̙͖̠͊̓̀̇̏̐͂̽̋̓̃̉͝O̷̭̭͌̾̐̔́͛̑̽̕̕͝ͅͅ ̷̢͚̮͖̬̼̯̺̘̹̯͖̽̅̃̔̐̎͊̅͘C̶͚̖̯̘̤̩̗̖̘̩̓Ả̴̡̡͎̲̤̫̜̺͗͂͋͂̓̉͌̚͝L̶̮̝̞̫̙̞̜̬͋̌̈́̋̒́̆̕͘͘L̶̲̱̬̯͓̘̳̦̥̰̲̆͂͋͊͊̒͛̔́ ̶̛̻͒͆̐́̂͑͆̑͌͝M̴̱̘̬̝͊̽̍͌͑͝E̷̡̡̡͈͕̼̰̙̞̣̪͂͛̊͘͜ͅ ̷̺̲̥̣̳̃͋ͅẂ̵̢̛̳͓̩͚͖͙͋̓͊͝E̸̢͕͈̬̤͑͆̓̍̓̎̕͝Ȁ̶̝̙̗̭͖̫̟͔̞̩̀̏̌̈́͌̚͜͝͝K̶̩͈̮̽!̶̪̘͔̥͙̃̏̅̋͒͊͋̑͝he yelled on top of his lungs, shooking the castle and run a chill down her spine.

She looked at him and was shocked to see his new form: His pupils are glowing indigo, the violet stripes in his mane were glowing and his tail has indigo glow running down every second. He was also surrounded by purple and yellow aura. The feathers in his wings have yellow glow.

"W-what is this?!" She questioned 

"This is my true power, I exceed your own, i don't even need to go to the limits."

Angered, she doesn't even care if he's more powerful or not, she then charged a magic beam and fired it almost immediately, but Macoy fired a light magic beam of his own from his wings, Nightmare Moon tried to intensifies her beam, but Macoy also do that, she reached her limit but Macoy was just using under 10% of his magic. His beam overpowered her's, knocking her back.

Nightmare Moon got backed up but then something seemed wrong with the night mare. She shook her head as her hoof pressed against it. “What! NO! I…I WAS SO CLOSE!” Nightmare’s voice began to falter and distort as she spoke, some of it not entirely her own. “STAY WHERE YOU ARE YOU…YOU WEAK FOAL!!”

“N-No!” Another voice came from inside of her, this one different the the last. “You tricked me…you…you hurt my sister…you…I… I will not let you have your way!!”

Using this as an opportunity, Macoy had an idea with a lightbulb above his head "N-no!" She said in a worried tone. Macoy's wings, mane stripes, and the glows running down his tail changed from light and dark magic colors to entirely red. A̴̺͒̋̊͘͠b̸̙̆̄͠y̵̞̞̫͗͂s̸̩͉͆͋͆͝͝s̷̲̰̱͒ǐ̶̢̨̟ȗ̷̧̧͖s̵͉͚͒̊̌͝,̸̟̙̗̋͝ ̶̳̰͖͙̀͊̿̈́̚͜H̵̘̮̀͆͛̕ͅͅa̷̯̬͙͗͌k̴͉̊̈͆̈́ģ̸̘̥̌̈̊n̷̞͙͉̘͛ę̷̛̺͉͚̰͛͂͊͘ś̷̼̰̟͌̕͠!̸̥̌͆ he shouted in a glitchy tone again. He flapped his wings which made the glows in his mane, tail and wings return to normal, she thought it did nothing, but another second 5 skeletal claws emerged not too far away from her, and next another second it grabbed her 4 legs and horn, making her movements and magic useless. "What is this!"

It was at that moment the other five made it up the stairs and stood behind Twilight, said mare was filled with renewed determination as her friends stood beside her and it was then that something clicked, “You think you can destroy the Elements of Harmony just like that? Well you’re wrong, because the spirits of the Elements of Harmony are right HERE!” She said motioning towards her friends.

Nightmare Moon could only watch in shock as the fragments of the Elements rose up, bathed in light.

“Applejack, who reassured me when I was in doubt, represents the spirit of Honesty,” Applejack watched as some of the fragments began to orbit about her at a frenzied pace.

“Fluttershy, who tamed the Manticore with her compassion, represents the spirit of Kindness,” Fluttershy stared in awe as fragments swirled in the air around her.

“Pinkie Pie, who banished fear by giggling in the face of danger, represents the spirit of Laughter,” Pinkie hopped with a grin as fragments joined her.

“Rarity, who calmed a sorrowful serpent with a meaningful gift, represents the spirit of Generosity,” Rarity smiled at her ring of fragments.

“And Rainbow Dash, who could not abandon her friends for her own heart’s desire, represents the spirit of Loyalty,” Rainbow Dash watched her friend, rather than her fragments.

“The spirits of these five ponies got us through every challenge you threw at us!”

Nightmare Moon was beside herself, “You still don’t have the sixth Element! The spark didn’t work!”

“But it did,” Twilight continued, “a different kind of spark.” She turned to face her friends, “I felt it the very moment I realized how happy I was to hear you, to see you,” She looked towards the trio of stallions with Macoy still glowing. “How much I cared about you... The spark ignited inside me when I realized that you all...”

She turned to face the vainly-thrashing Nightmare Moon, “...are my friends!”

A magnificent bright light drew all eyes to the ceiling above, to behold the sight of a sixth orb: the sixth Element of Harmony. They watched as the sphere descended down from the air to float above Twilight’s head. Nightmare Moon tried to get away but Macoy's skeletal claws holding her in place made it useless

“You see, Nightmare Moon, when those Elements are ignited by the... the spark that resides in the heart of us all, it creates the sixth Element: the Element of Magic.”

The room was engulfed by an unmatched light, as the fragments gained color and forged themselves into necklaces around the five ponies, each one with a gem resembling their Cutie Mark. The orb, however, became a grandiose tiara with Twilight’s Cutie Mark, before settling itself upon her head. The 3 stallions could only smirk and Mico doing a mocking wave as they watched Twilight and the others unleash a massive double rainbow, which swirled around Nightmare Moon like a tornado,"NOOOOOOO!" was all Nightmare Moon could say before engulfing the entire room in a bright light.



When the light faded, the six Element ponies were sprawled out upon the floor while Macoy flew back to the ground.

The 3 siblings with Macoy no longer glowing approached the raised throne where a something lay, gently stirring. Macoy knelt down and nudged the light blue fur of its body softly. When the being began to awake he smiled, noticing the color of her eyes from before she cowered away from him as he looked upon her. Putting two and two together he gave the frightened mare a wink. "Hey…thanks for the save…” At his words she looked towards the indigo pegasus and suddenly wrapped her hooves around him, crying shamefully.

“I’m so sorry!” She cried.


Stroking her mane, Macoy returned the embrace before pushing her off, giving her another wink. “Hey…No worries. Your safe and sound…”

“Indeed, she is.”

Every pony’s head snapped to look in the direction the voice came from, there stood Princess Celestia herself as the sun rose behind her.

The siblings heard Luna gasp softly, “Big sister Celestia!”

“Princess Luna.”

Both of them were startled, now under the gaze of the elder Alicorn. Seeing that this would be a sister moment, Macoy gently moved away from Luna.

“It has been a thousand years since I have seen you like this.” Celestia knelt down to be closer to Luna’s level, “Time to put our differences behind us. We were meant to rule together, little sister. Will you accept my friendship?”

Luna glanced over at the 3 stallions, now joining the mares that were close by before turning back to face the white mare, eyes tearing up, “I’m so sorry!” She ran to nuzzle Celestia, more happy tears running down her face, “I missed you so much, big sister!”

Celestia’s eyes became wet as well as she nuzzled into her little sister, “I’ve missed you, too.”

On the other hoof, Macoy whispered something to his siblings. Which made them confused.

"Sooooo... are we your friends now?! The 3 siblings asked simultaneously to the mares.

Luna nodded still upset about what she did to the youngest sibling Mico and JR had.

Macoy smiled and then hugged her, taking Luna by surprise. "If your upset about what you did, there's no need to be." Macoy said in a soothing voice. "I forgive you, you couldn't control youself, so there's no need to beat yourself up over this."

Luna was surprised at how he simply forgave her despite what had happened when see was Nightmare Moon, but with tears in her eyes returned the embrace and said,"Thank you."

"No need to thank me, you were the one who allowed yourself to stop Nightmare Moon long enough for Twilight and her friends to finish her off."

Suddenly, they heard a laughter that sounded familiar to Mico and his siblings. "Good one, good one. It sounds like a reunion of Mico with his degenerate parents." Black Entity's voice echoing with amusement and excitement.

"You again, come on!" JR said. "Show yourself Blacky!" Mico demanded.

"Y̵̨̢͖͖͈̠̎̀̇͝ọ̶̩̃̎̃ü̸̡̦͖̯͔̖͉̅͆̌̿̚ ̷̯̠͓̄̆̎ạ̷̩͗ȑ̷̨̹̼͖̟̘̠̀͆͒̎̚e̴͔͍̦͛̀̈́̿͌̊͝ ̷̛̟͂̊͂̕í̶̧̺n̸̘̳̋̌̉̀ ̸̫̜͎̰̹̯́́n̵̗͇̗͎̬͐́̔̓̂ͅo̶̡̼̪̦̻̞̒͒̍̈́͛͝ ̶̻̉̃̍̔́ͅṗ̵̧̟͚̓͜o̴̼̭̫̥̳͍̣͑̕s̴̤͈̈̐͌̋̑į̷̻̜͕͖̺͗̀̓̕ţ̵͔̲̲̿͆ï̷͕̘̲͔͛̓̿ȍ̸̡̘̹̳̒̾͗n̸͔̠͈̱̘̞͗͒̍̎͜ ̸̛̦͉̜̂t̵̖̗̚o̶̗̜̿̿̆́ ̵͖̺̚͝d̶̦̟̫̏̚ͅe̵͓͐̓̿̔͐͝m̴̨̖͔̹̣͍͒́ą̶̙͉̲̜̲̣̊́̌̓̊̏n̵͓̑͆́̋̆̀͝d̷̯̋̄͆ ̶̹̌a̵̛̻̞̬͒̿̿̈̐̑ͅn̸̬̠͋̂͌̾̎͝͝y̵̛̙̠̹̲̱͇̓̈̋̌̊̽t̸̫̲͇̻̀̎̈̂̕h̴̩̜͎̦̙̐̈́͌̕i̶͍͑̂̉͝n̷̬̱̔̌̑g̶̡̘̉̀̚̚,̸͇̀ ̴̧̛̠̣̜̦͔p̵͙̀́̃̕͜͝o̷͔̤͗̄̐ͅn̴̢͔͎̤̔́͆́ͅy̷̧̩͔̪̬̱̮̓!̴̘͑͠"

Being annoyed of Black Entity, he lit his horn in blue aura and shoot a single blue sphere of energy that made a hole in the wall with Black Entity coming out there.

"I knew you will ruin this reunion between these sisters." Mico said with smirk.

"Hahahahahaha, then welcome to our reunion too." Blacky answered.

"Hmph, you're not even related to me."

"Aw heck nah!!"

"Y'know I hate to admit but i will make sure you will not cause something that I hate, and possibly them!" said Mico to Black Entity while pointing at the princesses and the Mane 6.

"Mico, as much as I hate you, give me the you-know-that-already!" Black Entity demanded.

"Why would I because: number 1, I don't have any, number 2, Did you think I'm dumb enough to just give atleast one to you" Mico refused.

"I HATE YOU! When I find atleast one of the Crystal of Darkness, I WILL SQUISH YOU AS GIGANTO!! And.. and.. uhh." Black Entity runned out of words to say.

"Aoba!" Macoy said, Mico laughed extremely hard while Macoy and JR chuckles. "Kahhhhhhgiiiiiiiiiihh haaaaah Haaaaaah HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA *breaths* Ahhh hah hah hah hah hah huh hah huh huh hih huh i ha ha schccch hi-" His laughter was cut by JR slapping his left cheek. "OK, what was that for stopping my laugh."

Black Entity had an angry face and teleported away, leaving a red, black and white glitch particles where he once stood.

Mico had a smirk on how he mocked Black Entity

Princess Celestia said, "I believe it's time we return to ponyville."

"Lets go" Mico said with hype and lit up his horn cyan, then they disappeared in a cyan flash.



Not too long after Mico teleported both himself and his friends old and new out of the ruined castle, we see them having fun at the 'equestria is saved for Mico, JR and Macoy with the Mane 6 and the Princesses' party Pinkie threw not too long after arriving back to Ponyville.

Princess Luna was a bit shy around all the ponies that were at the party, but thanks to her sister and new friends being at her side she soon got used to being around other ponies again, although it did take a while. Once she did become more confident in meeting new ponies, Mico, JR and Macoy separated from them and meet up with their 7 new friends.

"I've got to say Pinkie, you sure can throw the best parties." Macoy said with a smile.

"When it comes to throwing parties, I'm pretty much the best!" Pinkie said in an excited tone.

"So guys, what are you going to do now? Now that Nightmare Moon is no longer an issue and all." Rainbow Dash asked.

"We're not completely sure yet." Twilight said.

"Well, continue the party, we can do it once again if it happens, I need some alone time. Don't worry, I'll be back soon." with that, Mico dashes out leaving a blue trail behind.



We now see Mico sitting on a tree, relaxing after Nightmare Moon was defeated. He was whistling a music instrumental(Starts from 3:12 to 3:35)While having his memories recalled:a corruption in his arm that goes away and returns repeatedly, him attempting to attack Black Entity's son/daughter but was instead knockbacked, him looking at titan-sized Black Entity look-a-like, defeating a 4 legged enemy by running around one of its legs, cutting it down in the process and stomping the center of the enemy.



About an hour after the party ended, we find the 3 stallions, the Princesses, Spike, and the the newly found Mane 6 in Ponyville library discussing about Mico and co's day in Ponyville and the obstacles they faced in the Everfree Forest. Princess Celestia was quite proud that Twilight had been able to make some new friends (despite the way she was towards them at first), and how Mico and his old friends had assisted them in throughout the day. Then came the subject of Twilight and Spike returning to Canterlot. Twilight already agreed with Princess Celestia that she would stay in Ponyville to learn more about friendship.

Everyone was discussing things, sans Mico, who had memories visiting his minds once again, it was different from the last one, It involved him beating enemies, titans, monsters and deities from the likes of Ancient Egypt(3,000 BC to 500(BC), Greece(1,050 BC to 146 BC), Middle Ages(476 AD to 1601 AD), Dynasty Periods(2,400 BC to 708 BC), and Modern History(1,900 AD to 2024 AD). The princesses, the Mane 6 and his brothers were giving him an odd look, Macoy decides to bite his tail to break his thoughts, but to no avail as he didn't feel a pain, not even a bit(though this is because he has super durability).

JR insisted to slap Mico's back, successfully breaking his thoughts, "OK what was-" he was cut off when he notice that they were giving him an odd look, "Why were you thinking of something?" Rainbow asked "Well, it's just some good old memories." They got even more confused except for JR and Macoy since they know it's their previous adventure.



"Goodbye my little ponies, take good care." Princess Celestia said as she and Princess Luna were about to head back to canterlot via chariot. "And you too Mico and your siblings, I hope we see each other again soon."

"You too princess." Mico said while winking as the chariot took off.

"What should we do now?" Applejack asked.

"Oh how about we have party!?" Pinkie suggested

"Pinkie need I remind you we already had a party." Rarity pointed out.

"How about me and Mico have that race he promised!" Rainbow Dash said. Mico facehoofed

"I'm pretty sure we'd all want to do something we all can take part of, if you don't mind me suggesting." Fluttershy said.

"How about we take a walk around ponyville?" Twilight asked, "Me, Mico and his siblings only got to see part of it when we were checking on the preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration, and we can get a few conversations while we're at it."

"That's not a bad idea Twilight." Mico said.

"I can agree with that." Applejack said.

"I do as well." Rarity agreed.

"Same here." Said Fluttershy, Pinkie, Rainbow Dash, and Spike.

"Ofcourse why would it not be good." Macoy said

"I like it LOL!" JR agreed and joked at the same time.

"Then it's settled." Twilight Said, "Except.. i can just explore this town by running around and checking each of them 1 seconds each." Mico said, getting an odd and confused look from the Mane 6, Twilight said "Anyways, let's get started shall we?"

Once they started Macoy couldn't help but smile as he thought, 'I have a feeling staying in ponyville is going to be one of the best decision we've ever made!'

But unbeknownst to him and the others, he had something on his flank.

> The Ticket Master
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's been a few weeks since Mico, his 2 siblings, Twilight, and Spike had moved to ponyville, and they've had some pretty good times with their new friends as well.

We now find Mico and his siblings, Twilight, and Spike at Sweet Apple Acers as they where helping Applejack take some apples back to the barn. Mico was using spindash despite being a pony, Macoy was kicking the trees with hind legs while JR only punches the trees.

"No. Nope. Nope..." Spike said, which still continues in the background.

"I wanna thank y'all again for helping collect all those apples." Applejack said, "That was impressive how you used that spinning attack of yours to knock the apples out of some of the trees Mico. You too MC, you kick the trees the way i also do and JR, you lightly punched the trees like they were nothing." she chuckled

"Oh that was nothing AJ." Mico said.

"Do you have have any plans for later Applejack?" Twilight asked, before Applejack could answer, Spike belched out a letter.

"It's a letter from Princess Celestia." JR said

"What does it say Spike?" Macoy said

Spike clears his throat ,"Hear ye, hear ye. Her Grand Royal Highness, Princess Celestia of Equestria, is pleased to announce the Grand Galloping Gala to be held in the magnificent capital city of Canterlot, on the 21st day of, eh, yadda yadda yadda, cordially extends an invitation to Twilight Sparkle plus one guest."

"The Grand Galloping Gala!" Twilight and Applejack gasped.

[Insert theme song here please]

"The Grand Galloping Gala!" Twilight and Applejack cheered.

"Oh look, 2 tickets!" Spike belched again

"HUH? What's Grand Galloping Gala?" Mico and JR said in unison while Macoy look in confusion.

Twilight and AJ facehoofed on that kind of question, "Well, the Grand Galloping Gala is an annual royal ball held to celebrate the completion of Canterlot after Equestria was founded. It is attended primarily by high-class ponies, to attend in this event, you need this ticket." Twilight showed the 3 siblings the ticket.

"Oh, okay."

"I've never been to the Grand Galloping Gala before." Twilight said. "Hey Mico and Spike, have either one of you gone before?"

"Why's that? Of course I've never been in the Gala before" Mico deadpanned. 'Don't they know I'm from another world, or let's just say, different universe's. Mico thought.

"Oh, right. What about you Spike?"

"No, and I plan to keep it that way. I don't want any of that girly frilly frou-frou nonsense." Spike said.

"Aw, come on Spike. A dance would be nice."

"Nice?" Applejack asked, "It's a heap good more than just nice. I'd love to go. Land sakes, if I had an apple stand set up, ponies would be chowin' our tasty vittles 'til the cows came home. Do you have any idea how much business I could drum up for Sweet Apple Acres? Why, with all that money, we could do a heap of fixin' up 'round here. We could replace that saggy old roof, and Big McIntosh could replace that saggy old plow, and Granny Smith could replace that saggy old hip, why, I'd give my left hind leg to go to that gala."

"Oh, well in that case, would you like to--" Twilight was cut off by a loud crash on Macoy's position,"WOAH!"

"Are we talking about the Grand Galloping Gala?" Rainbow Dash asked as it turns out she was the one who crashed on Macoy.

"O̶͔͐̋̇̀̏H̵̬̝̟̯͕̮̭̎̕͝ ̶̧̛̺̪̮̩̤̗͓̀̚Ç̵͙̗͇̻̥͔͔͖͌͝Ọ̴̻̪̩͔̫́̾͋̈͌̄̍́̿͝ͅM̸̢̚É̴̛͎͉̫̥̪̏͆̐̏̇̚͜͝ ̶̨͎͍̖̥͕̱̲̆͊͗̒͌̅́̉́ͅO̴̻̫͛͆̎̉͠N̸̡͇̲͒̿̄͊̏͛̽̓̈̚!̴̨̣͚̙̗̫̻̞͓̀̑̈́̉͋͊̿͜!̸͍͎̰̻̞̮̺̖̪͌̑̓̒̅̂̑͜͠͝" Macoy shouted, which was heard as far as 5 miles.

"No, I was busy napping, and I just happened to hear that you have an extra ticket?"

"Yeah, but--" Twilight was cut off again.

"YES!"  Rainbow Dash exclaimed, "This is so awesome. The Wonderbolts perform at  the Grand Galloping Gala every year. I can see it now, everyone would  be watching the sky, their eyes riveted on the Wonderbolts. But then in  would fly Rainbow Dash!" Pretend audience gasps, "I would draw their  attention with my Super Speed Strut." Audience cheers, "Then, I would  mesmerize 'em with my Fantastic Filly Flash. And for my grand finale,  the Buccaneer Blaze! The ponies would go wild!" They go wild, "The  Wonderbolts would insist that my signature moves be incorporated into  their routine, and then welcome me as their newest member. Don't you see, Twilight? This could be my one chance to show 'em my stuff."

Applejack  then grabbed Rainbow Dash by her tail, "Hold on just one pony pickin'  minute here." She said muffled and spat the tail out, "I asked for that ticket first."

"So? That doesn't mean you own it." Rainbow Dash countered.
"Oh, yeah? Well, I challenge you to a hoof-wrestle, the winner gets the ticket." Applejack challenged.

After going to a nearby rock, they both groan as they hoof-wrestled, JR then pushed them apart as Twilight approached the 3, "Girls, these are my tickets, I'll decide who gets it, thank you very much. Whoever has the best reason to go should  get the ticket, don't you think?"

"Drummin' up business for the farm?" Applejack said.

"A chance to audition for the Wonderbolts?" Rainbow Dash said.

"Money to fix Granny's hip."

"Living the dream."

"Oh my, those were all pretty good reasons, aren't they?" Twilight asked. Her stomach rumbles and she chuckled, "Listen to that, I am starving. I don't know about you, but I can't make important decisions  on an empty stomach, so I'll, uh, think about it over lunch and get back to you two, okay?" They both said okay and when she left they went back  to hoof-wrestling.

"Who do you plan on giving the ticket to Twilight?" Spike asked. 

Mico was about to say something when Twilight spoke first.

"I don't know Spike, but I really can't think straight when I'm hungry, so where should we eat?"

Before anything else could happen, Pinkie crashed into them.

They  all moaned, the tickets then fell on Pinkie's face, "Gah! Bats! Bats on my face! Help! Wait, these aren't... tickets to the Grand Galloping  Gala?! It's the most amazing incredible tremendous super-fun wonderful terrifically humongous party in all of Equestria! I've always always  always wanted to go!"

Pinkie sang as music played, "Oh the  Grand Galloping Gala is the best place for me, oh the Grand Galloping  Gala is the best place for me, hip hip, hooray! It's the best place for  me, for Pinkie... With decorations like streamers and fairy lights  and pinwheels and piñatas and pin-cushions. With goodies like sugar  cubes and sugar canes and sundaes and sun-beams and sarsaparilla. And I  get to play my favorite-est of favorite fantabulous games like Pin the  Tail on the Pony!" "Oh the Grand Galloping Gala is the best place for  me, oh the Grand Galloping Gala is the best place for me, because it's  the most galarrific superly-terrific gala ever in the whole galaxy,  wheee!! Oh thank you, Twilight, it's the most wonderful-est gift ever."

Really?😅

"Um, actually..." Twilight was about to say something when she was cut off yet again. 

"Gasp! Are these what I think they are?"Rarity asked.

"Uh--"

"Yes, yes, yes! Twilight's taking me to the Grand Galloping Gala in Canterlot."

"Mind explaining why you want to go?" Macoy asked. 

"The gala? I design ensembles for the gala every year, but I've never had  the opportunity to attend. Oh, the society, the culture, the glamor!  It's where I truly belong, and where I'm destined to meet him."

"Him!"

"Who?" Mico asked. 

"Him.  I would stroll through the gala, and everyone would wonder 'who is that mysterious mare?' They would never guess that I was just a simple pony from little old Ponyville. Why I would cause such a sensation that I  would be invited for an audience with Princess Celestia herself."

"And the princess would be so taken with the style and elegance that  she would introduce me to him, her nephew: the most handsome, eligible unicorn stallion in Canterlot. Our eyes would meet, our hearts would  melt. Our courtship would be magnificent. He would ask for my hoof in  marriage, and of course, I would say, 'Yes!' We would have a royal  wedding, befitting a princess, which is..." She giggled. "What I would become upon marrying him, the stallion of my dreams."

"Twilight, I simply cannot believe you would invite Pinkie Pie so she can... party,  and prevent me from meeting my true love. How could you? Hmph"

A bunny came and snatched the tickets. 

"Hey!" exclaimed Twilight. 

Fluttershy gasped as the bunny showed them to her, "Angel, these are perfect."

"Uh, listen, guys, I haven't decided who to give the extra ticket to." Twilight said.

They both asked, "You haven't?"

"Um,  excuse me, Twilight. I would just like to ask, I mean, if it would be all right, if you haven't given it to somepony else--" Fluttershy said  before she was cut off.

"You? You want to go to the gala?" Rarity asked.

"Oh,  no. I mean, yes, or, actually, kind of. You see, it's not so much the  Grand Galloping Gala as it is the wondrous private gated garden that surrounds the dance. The flowers are said to be the most beautiful and  fragrant in all of Equestria. For the night of the gala, and that night  alone, would they all be in bloom and that's just the flora! Don't get  me started on the fauna, there's loons and toucans and bitterns, oh my!  Hummingbirds that can really hum, and buzzards that can really buzz.  White-blue jays, and red jays, and green jays, pink jays, and pink  flamingos!"

"Gee, Fluttershy, it sounds... beautiful...?" Twilight said. 

"Wait just a minute." Rainbow Dash said.

"Rainbow Dash! Were you following me?"

"No.  I mean, yes. I mean, maybe. Look, it doesn't matter. I couldn't risk a  goody-four-claws like you giving that ticket away to just anypony"

"Wait just another minute."Applejack said.

"Applejack, were you following me too?"

"No. I was followin' this one to make sure she didn't try any funny business. Still trying to take mah ticket."

"Your ticket?" Rainbow Dash asked. 

"But Twilight's taking me." Rarity said.

"Mmm, I think we should duplicate the ticket!" JR whispered to Twilight, Macoy and Mico

They started to argue until Mico yelled, "E̴͓̦̲̥̐̇́̅͠n̵̩͕͙͇̪̟̟̈̄͜ṑ̴̪͍̣̰̪̠̝͚̞̄͒̒͝ͅú̵̡̗̖̭͔̼͕͚͖͎̎̈́͐̐͆͌͋̅̑̕̕g̶̡̼͓̲̥̘͈̰͓̬͇̪͉͋̈́͛̂̕h̶͎͉͑̈́̓̏̈͆͂̂͆͘͠ ̵̢̧͚̣̹̲͍̪̝̖͕̟͚̃̀̓́̂̏̊́̈́͝ǫ̵̲͉͍́̂̆͋̅͝k̸̙͍̝̘̳̥̫̭̗̈́ͅa̵̧̧̟̼̝͕̻̙̮͔͕͐̇͊͆͆̇̊̈̀͂̕̚̚y̴̨̻̣̮̥̘̤͍͚͚͎͍͉̘̋̆̒͆͂͌͐̽̀̋̌͝!̴̨̢̛̛̜͎̤͓̫̞͖̯̱̘͍̮̓͋͌̊̄̆̈́̆̉͊͘!̸̛̦̙̳̟͋́̃̀͌͒̄͛̾͂̓̚͠͝"

"Can you please stop using that voice, it kinda scares me?" Fluttershy asked.

They stopped except Pinkie, "And then I said, 'Oatmeal, are you crazy--' oh."

"G̸͓̈́͑̈́̋̇̅̔i̶̠͖͇̪͍͖̪͕̮͐͒̿̀̑̄͐r̴̞̀̔͝l̵̡̤̯͉̳̫̈́͜s̸͙̖̞͍̯̉̂̓̽̊̒͋̌́͜͠,̴͇̔͌͆͝ ̴̨̡̗̹̠̝͕̗͎̇̅̅̅͂̈́͘t̵̻͙̦̲̪̼̟̘̓ͅḩ̸̘̠̻͓̬̯̭͎̀̓͝e̵͚̟͖̘͜͝r̵͕̜̊ȇ̵͈͎̫̞͒́̐̀͑̌͆̅͗̂'̵͉̖̹̭͂́̃̇̃ͅs̴̡̳̻̝̬̼͙͛̎͝ͅͅ ̶̧͚̗͕̈͂͆̓n̴̻̱̲̗͍̬̎̂͂̏ȍ̶̱̈̈́́̆́͗͐̚͘͠ ̸̣͖̣͓̗̼̗͙̦̔ủ̸̦͇̟̦̗̖͍͇͇͜͝͠s̷̢͉̪̞̠̹̹̝̓̑̋̇ḛ̴̪͉̳̪̰̊͋̕ ̸̨͙͍̟͉͈̬̯̥̒̐ĭ̴̝̪̮̱̍͊̊̀͆̚̕̕͝ṇ̴̙͕͕̎̐̊̂̄ ̴̙͕͕̥̦̪͙͑͋͋̿͛̀͋͛̀͂ͅą̵̟̱͋̆̏́͆̾͛̏̍̕͝r̶̼͂̓̆͊̈̅g̸̡͇͖͎̙̹͚̜̝̤̏͌̓̿̎̈̾ͅu̴̹̓̚͜͜i̸̛͙̙͕̥̅̄́͋͂̍͜͜ṇ̴̡̢͙͖̝̼͚̀̉̒̔̚g̵̢̤͕͎̫̺̿̉." Mico said in glitchy voice, he was about to say something else when Twilight spoke up.

"He's right, this is my decision, and I'm gonna make it on my own, and I  certainly can't think straight with all this noise..." Her stomach  rumbles, "Not to mention hunger. Now go on, shoo."

They all  grumble as they left, "And don't worry, I'll figure this out... somehow." She sighed, "Come on guys let's get something to eat."

"And please don't use that voice again?" Fluttershy said.



We later see the 3 siblings, Twilight, and Spike at a restaurant in town and were just about to eat when, "Excuse me, but are you three going to eat in the rain?" Said the waitress.

"It's not raining..." Twilight looked out to see it was, "What's going on?"

"Hi there, best friend forever I've ever, ever had. Enjoying the sunny weather?"
The 5 of them looked up to see Rainbow Dash.

"Rainbow Dash, what are you doing?" Asked Mico

"Whaddya mean? I just saw the smartest, most generous pony and her friends about to get rained on, so I thought I'd kick a hole in the clouds to keep her dry so she could eat in peace, that's all."

"Rainbow, you're not trying to get extra consideration for the extra ticket by doing me extra special favors, are you?" Twilight asked.

"Me? No no no, of course not!"

"Uh-huh."

"Seriously, I'd do it for anypony... wait what are you doing?"

"Rainbow, I am not comfortable accepting unwanted favors, so I'd appreciate it if you close up that rain cloud right now."

"Fine."

She zipped it closed, "That's better." Twilight was about to take bite out of the daisy sandwich she ordered when rain poured on her Mico, JR Macoy, and Spike. Rarity then came up to her, "Twilight, it's raining."

"No really?"

"Come with me before you catch a cold."

And with that, Rarity drags the trio to the Carousel Boutique. As they dry off Rarity decides to "help" Twilight pick a dress for the Gala. Twilight tried to object, but when she saw herself in one of the dresses, she couldn't stop looking at herself in the mirror. That's when Rarity turned her attention to Mico, JR, Macoy, and Spike. Mico had a bit of an debate with Rarity as she was dressing Twilight, as to whether or not Rarity should give something formal to the 3 that they can wear at the Gala with JR arguing he doesn't like to stand out even more than he does already. It didn't take too long where JR persuaded Rarity to simply give him a tuxedo.

"Now darlings, would you like a black tuxedo, or a white tuxedo?" Rarity asked the 3 siblings and Spike.

I'll take a black tuxedo Rarity." Spike responded.

"Same here," Mico said, "White for us!" Macoy and JR spoke in unison.

Rarity said. "Anyway Twilight, I see you are enjoying that dress you are currently wearing."

Twilight didn't respond, she was to focused on her reflection, mainly the dress she had on.

"I just now how well you will be among the stallions at the Gala, but if the two of us were together, we would be the elegant mares at the Gala!" Rarity said, although this caused Twilight to snap out of her trance, "this dress looks so great on me" trance.

'Figured she would try to persuade Twilight to take her to the Gala.' Sonic thought.

"I'm sorry Rarity." Twilight said, "But being nice isn't going to make me want to pick you as the the one to go to the Grand Galloping Gala with me. Come on boys let's go." As the Mico, JR, Macoy,  Twilight and Spike leaves they took off the clothes Rarity gave them and leave them on the stage.



After leaving the Carousel Boutique, Twilight's stomach begins to rumble again.

"Looks like someone's hungry." Macoy said.

"I haven't had anything since this morning." Twilight said. "I hope I can get me some food to eat soon."

"Did somepony say food?" Applejack asked while pulling a cart full of apple products towards them.

"Applejack, I know what you doing and it isn't going to work." Twilight Deadpanned.

"What are you talking about sugarcube?"

"Twilight's right Applejack." Pinkie said as she came into view with a car full of cakes, cupcakes, cookies, etc. Twilight tried her best to resist her friends "kindness", but her empty stomach only made it harder.

"As if it's going to work with you!" Applejack glared at Pinkie.

"I know it will, all my goodies taste better than what you were going to offer." Pinkie countered.

"Enough already!" JR yelled.

"What's going on here?" asked a random mare as a crowd was formed due to the belief Applejack and Pinkie were giving away food or something.

"Oh me and Applejack are trying to persuade Twilight to take one of us to the Grand Galloping Gala!" Pinkie explained.

"The Grand Galloping Gala!" said the crowd of mares.

"This does not look good." JR said as the crowd began closing in.

"What do we do?" Spike asked nervously.

"The only thing we can do..." Twilight said. "RUUUUUUUUUNNN!" Mico added.

With that the 5 make a break for it with what seemed like the whole town after them. They tried to hide in some nearby bushes, but where quickly discovered due to Spike's tail sticking out. They tried to get to higher ground, but the Pegasi make that pointless. They managed to pull off the fake display figure trick by dressing as clowns in front of a joke shop, but they were quickly spotted after breaking disguise.

Soon the 5 find themselves conered in an ally way with the crowd was closing in on them. Macoy, Mico and JR was about to use their powers/magic to teleport when they noticed Twilight's horn was glowing. Not too long after that there was a bright flash, and the 5 was gone.

"Where did they go?" asked one of the mares in the crowd.



Back in the library, there was a flash of light and when it faded the 3 stallions, Twilight and a charred Spike remained.

"Warn us the next time you're going to do that." moaned Spike.

"I didn't even know it was going to happen!" replied Twilight.

"Well at least you're making progress on that teleportation spell you've been working on for the last few days." Mico said. "Heck, my magic is now replaced by this world's magic but I know how!"

That's when they noticed Fluttershy, Applejack, Pinkie, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash in front of them which causes Twilight to scream in frustration.

"If you're expecting me to choose now I can't decide, I just can't decide. It's important to all of you and I just can't stand to disappoint any of you, and giving me gifts and doing me favors won't make any difference because you're all my friends and I wanna make you all happy and I can't, I just can't!"

Her friends looked at each other, and AJ rubbed her head, "Twilight, sugar, I didn't mean to put so much pressure on you, and if it helps, I don't want the ticket anymore. You can give it to somepony else. I won't feel bad, I promise."

Fluttershy nodded, "Me too. I feel just awful that I made you feel so awful."

Pinkie sighed, "And me too. It's no fun upsetting your friends."

Rarity came forwards, "Twilight, it was unfair of me to try to force you as I did."

Dash was excited, "Yes! That means the ticket is mine, I got the ticket, I got the ticket--" everyone then shot a glare at her, "You know, I haven't perfected my signature moves for the Wonderbolts anyway, I don't need the ticket either."

"We all got so gun-ho about going to the gala that we couldn't see how un-gun-ho we were making you."

"We're sorry, Twilight." The five friends say together.

Twilight smiled, "Spike, take down a letter." He pulled out a scroll, quill, and started to write, "Dear Princess Celestia, I've learned that one of the joys of friendship is sharing your blessings, but when there are not enough blessings to go around, having more than your friends can make you feel pretty awful. So, though I appreciate the invitation, I will be returning both tickets to the Grand Galloping Gala."

"What!?!" yelled the five. Mico lit up his horn with blue lightning aura and summoned 3 tickets in front of him and his siblings while he Snickers.

"If my friends can't all go, I don't wanna go either."

"Twilight, you don't have to do that."

"Nope. I've made up my mind. Spike, you can send the letter now." Spike listened and sent it.

Fluttershy then said, "Now you won't get to go to the gala either."

"It's okay, girls. I couldn't possibly enjoy myself without my best friends there with me, so I would rather not go at all." Twi hugged them all. Mico couldn't help but feel bad while watching this.

Spike burped up another letter. "A letter from princess Celestia?" Twilight asked, "That was fast."

Spike read the letter, "My faithful student Twilight, why didn't you just say so in the first place?"

Tickets came out, "Six tickets to the Grand Galloping Gala." They all gasped.

"Now we can all go." They all cheered. Suddenly, Mico whistles, getting their attention. "What about us?" Mico asked

"How come we don't get a ticket to the gala too?" Spike burped again, "3 for the Mico, JR and Macoy, 1 for you, Spike." He looked at the ticket with glee, until he saw Mico, JR and Macoy smirking at him, "I mean, gross, we have to go too?"

Twi hugged him, "It's alright Spike, we won't judge you for wanting to go too."

Twilight's then let out a growl. Twilight nervously laughed and said, "Do you guys think we can go get something to eat?"

"Well what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Pinkie exclaimed.

As they were leaving Mico spoke out," You know, we didn't have to go through all that."

"What do you mean Mico?" Twilight asked.

"Well, I could just duplicate the tickets for the Gala and we won't go through all of that. And you would interrupt me everytime I was about to say it."

He got several blank looks in return.

It didn't last long as Rainbow Dash yelled, "ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!"

Warning:Mild Swearing, a bit of fighting near the end, so rated T.



It was another day in Equestria and Mico was rubbing Twilight's shoulders to get her ready.

"Come on, Twi. You can do it." He told her. "It's literally so easy that Indigo just did it, well actually I can do it via Reality Bending." 

He  was referring to a Transfiguration spell and his very own Reality Bending. A few seconds ago, Macoy had turned a stick into a corn, he was currently eating it as well. Mico then teleported in front of Macoy, he then fired a dark magic blast at Mico, Mico then uses his Reality Bending to turn Macoy's magic blast into a pile of bubbles.

Twilight took a few deep breaths. "Okay. I can do this." She said as Mico gave her a shoulder rub and then he and Macoy teleported back.

"All you have to do is point and shoot. You have nothing to worry about." Mico told her before letting go and looking at the orange. Twilight illuminated her horn before casting the spell on the orange. A magical aura began to swirl around the orange before turning it into a lemon. Twilight would turn to look at Mico after seeing the lemon, feeling confident and accomplished, only amplified by Mico and Macoy's excited in place trotting.

"Ha ha! Ya did it! Growing magic, that's number twenty-four. Twenty-four different types of tricks and counting."  Mico said before hearing someone eating the lemon. He turned around and, to his horror, Chad had eaten the lemon. Twilight looked between the two, confused.

"Everybody get down!!" Mico exclaimed as he dove to cover. Macoy had a grin on his face and was twitching as if he had ingested coffee mixed with energy drinks. Twilight quickly grabbed Spike, who was standing nearby, and dove beside Mico.

It didn't take long for Macoy to start bouncing off of walls, running/flying in circles, and making a hyperactive mess of everything.

"Does this always happen?!" Spike asked.

"Yes! This is why he's not allowed to eat lemons. He'll tire himself  out eventually." Mico said. Macoy flew in circles that were so fast that they were creating small tornadoes before Mico fired a yellow-colored spell, which causes Macoy to fall asleep in the middle of the still spinning tornadoes.

Spike and Twilight peeked out, looking towards him. Macoy was curled up adorably on the floor, snoring. Mico used his Reality Bending to clean up the mess surrounding everyone. 

"That was fast." Spike commented.

"That's because we are in an enclosed space." Mico responded with a smirk. 

Spike nodded, turning to look at Macoy.

He was still asleep. Mico placed him on his back.

"That was a lively start to the day." Twilight said, practically impossible to not hear the eye rolling tone in her voice.

"Your sarcasm is appreciated." Mico said with an eye roll. Twilight giggled at the response.

"Want to try number Twenty-five?" JR was heard asking. They turned around to see him, in which Twilight began to grin.

"Just don't do it on me. I don't-" He tried to say. A beam hits his snout before he finished talking.

"Too late." She said as she finished. Seconds later, facial hair grew out of JR's face, making him sport a yellow horseshoe mustache.

"You did it!" Spike exclaimed. Twilight giggled and touched his mustache.

"You know, you look good in it." Twilight said. JR gave her an unamused look and moved her hoof off of him.

"Don't worry Lemon, it'll 'grow' on you." Spike said before laughing. JR looked towards the audience with a slight frown.



(Insert theme song here pls)



Back with the group, the 4 were walking throughout Ponyville. JR was scratching his facial hair, and ended up liking it. Soon, Lloyd joined the group too.

"Twenty-five, Twilight. Twenty-five different kinds of tricks and counting. I thought unicorns were only supposed to have a little magic that matches their special talents!" Macoy said, now fully awake, but still in Mico's back.

"True, for ponies whose talents are for things like cooking or singing or math, but what if a pony's special talent was magic?" Twilight asked.

"Like you and Mico, Twilight, and you two know a ton of magic." Lloyd said.

"Well, i don't have a cutie mark for it so-" Mico had to say.

"Yet. You don't have a cutie mark for it yet LOLOLOLOL, I already have one- no two!" Macoy interrupted.

"Oh really?! What if I'm the one getting my true potential the last, then I stomp you down!" Mico countered, much to his youngest brother's unamusement.

"I'm sure there are others here who know a lot about magic, plus Bluey, don't bloat your ego." Twilight said.

"Okay." Mico responded with neutral look.

"Are you kidding? I don't think there's another unicorn in all of Equestria with your kind of ability, Twilight." Lloyd said with a tail wag. Spike snickered.

"Aww Green you're too kind" Twilight said, blushing. Lloyd blepped at her with a wink.

"You'll see. I'm just holding back Twily and frens." Mico said

"Suck up." Spike muttered with a smirk.

"What was that Spike?" Mico asked with a smirk, startling Spike.

"N-Nothing!" Mico chuckled.

"By the way Twily, How much longer until this facial hair goes away?" JR asked.

"Uh... It should go soon" Twilight answered.

JR was about to say something, but he was interrupted by Snips and Snails running past them.

"Gangway! Comin' through!" Snails exclaimed. Mico quickly picked up Spike so he wasn't run over by the two running colts. Lloyd leaped off of Mico's back and ran after Snips and Snails.

"Snips, Snails! What's goin' on?" Lloyd asked. They slid to a stop, he was still running but uses his Mobiliflash to get back to them.

"Haven't you heard?!" Snails asked.

"There is a new unicorn in town." Snips answered.

"Where was this kind of excitement when I came to town?" Mico asked. He was clearly not happy with that. Twilight playfully nudged him and Mico pouted as a result.

"They say that she's got more magical powers than any other unicorn ever!" Snips said, making Twilight stunned a little.

"Really?" She asked, feeling bad about hearing that.

"What do you mean? Twilight is right there." Lloyd said.

"Yeah, no unicorn is more powerful than her." Spike added. Twilight blushes as a result before becoming interested in finding out who this was.

"Hah! Fat chance, oh wait in case Twily is nowhere as that unicorn, I got her back." Mico said while patting her back.

"Where is this unicorn?" Twilight asked. Snails piped up.

"She's in town square. Come on!" He said as he began running.

"Yeah! Come on." Snips said as he ran behind him. Mico and Twilight looked at each other and began running, Lloyd, JR, Macoy and Spike right beside them.



In town square, there was a crowd gathered around a wagon parked in front of the building.

"Come one, come all! Come and witness the amazing magic of the Great and Powerful Trixie!" A voice called out. Mico, Twilight, Spike and Mico's 3 siblings made it to the front, Mico and JR loafed so the ponies behind them could see. A blue unicorn wearing a lavender wizard hat and cape, complete with yellow and varying shades of blue stars and dots, 'teleported' in front of the curtains. She was the self-proclaimed, great and powerful Trixie.

"Oooh." The crowd that gathered said.

"Watch in awe as the Great and Powerful Trixie performs the most spectacular feats of magic ever witnessed by pony eyes!" Trixie exclaimed as fireworks went off.

"Wow, she's a boaster." Mico commented.

"My goodness JR, did you grow a mustache?" Rarity was heard saying to JR.

"Well yes but actually no." he responded.

"It looks good on you, you should keep it." Applejack complimented.

"Thank you, I wish I liked it as much as you do." JR said as he continued scratching it. Twilight walked over to Mico and JR, hearing what the latter said previously.

"There's nothing wrong with being talented, is there?" Twilight asked.

"Nothin' at all, 'cep'n when someone goes around showin' it off like a school filly with fancy new ribbons." Applejack said, glaring at Trixie as she made a bunch of flowers appear out of nowhere. Mico saw how that made Twilight feel.

"Twilight, I'm sure she meant-" Mico tried to say.

"Just because one has the ability to perform lots of magic does not make one better than the rest of us." Rarity interrupted. Twilight's ears flopped. Mico tried again, only to be interrupted by Macoy and Rainbow Dash.

"Especially when ya got us around." Rainbow Dash said.

"Being better than the rest of us is kind of our job." Macoy added.

Both Applejack and Mico glared at them. Though it was mostly Mico that got them changing their minds.

"Heh... Uh, I mean, yeah, uh, magic shmagic." Rainbow dash said.

"Boo!" Macoy Diamondhero added to show she got the point. Unfortunately, Trixie heard them.

"Well, well, well, it seems we have some neighsayers in the audience." Trixie started. Lloyd then laughed uncontrollably at the statement.

"Is everyone doing bad puns today?" Mico muttered to Twilight and their friends, causing Lloyd to finally cancel his own laugh.

"Who is so ignorant as to challenge the magical ability of the Great and Powerful Trixie? Do they not know that they're in the presence of the most magical unicorn in all of Equestria?" Trixie asked. Mico rolled his eyes.

"Great, it's Blueblood 2.0." he said. Rarity scoffed and turned to Twilight.

"Just who does she think she is?" She asked her. Then Spike piped up to tell Trixie off.

"Yeah! Since we all know that Twilight here is—" Spike tried to say before Twilight interrupted.

"Spike! Shhh!" She said before pulling him away from the crowd. Mico quickly flew up to follow her, grabbing Macoy as he did so.

"What? What's wrong?" Spike asked as he turned around.

"You see the way they reacted to Trixie? I don't want anyone thinking I'm a show-off." Twilight answered, she was pretty nervous.

"Twilight, there's a difference between-" Mico tried to say before fanfare went off. JR ran over to Trixie in a yellow blur.

"So, "Great and Powerful Trixie". What makes you think you're so awesome, anyway?" JR asked her with uncanny look. Trixie gave off a confident scoff.

"Heh, why, only the Great and Powerful Trixie has magic strong enough to vanquish the dreaded ursa major!" She proudly said. The fireworks went off and illustrated 'what happened'. Starting with making the ursa.

Most of the audience gasped in awe, especially Snips and Snails.

“When all hope was lost, the ponies of Puffington had no one to turn to, but the Great and Powerful Trixie stepped in and, with her awesome magic, vanquished the Ursa Major and sent it back to its cave deep within the Everfree Forest!” She told the crowd. Mico gave off a glare, he didn't buy this story at all, not a bit.

Although, before he could voice his own opinion on the matter, Snips and Snails continued to worship her. Much to Mico's annoyance, "I was about to say a unpopular opinion." Mico said to the audience, breaking the 4th wall.

“That settles it.” Snips said.

“Trixie truly is the most talented, most magical, most awesome unicorn in Ponyville.” Snails walked up to her stage and boasted her ego.

“No! In all of Equestria!” Snips added, which only increased it.

“How do you know? You didn’t see it.” Macoy yelled. Mico smiled proudly, appreciating that he wasn't as gullible. “And besides, Twi…” Twilight quickly used her magic and zipped Macoy's mouth before he could finish, literally. Spike ran over to try and unzip it.

Trixie only laughed. “It’s true, my enthusiastic little admirers. Trixie is most certainly the best in Ponyville.” She arrogantly said.

There was only silence and crickets chirping.

“Don’t believe the Great and Powerful Trixie?” Trixie said before giggling. “Well, then, I hereby challenge you, Ponyvillians--- anything you can do, I can do better. Any Takers? Anyone? Hmm? Or is Trixie destined to be the greatest Equine who ever lived!” She said and the fireworks were shot out again. Mico was about to step forward, but Trixie was quick to shoot down this challenger.

"Up bup bup. Sorry friend, but the only challengers are the ones I choose now." She said with a grin. Mico gasped and then growled, "BUT YOU SAID YOU CHALLENGE THE ONES WHO APPROACH YOU!!". Macoy unzipped his lips and grabbed Twilight's hoof.

"Please! She’s unbearable! You got to show her you just got to!” He begged Twilight.

“There’s no way I’m gonna use my magic now, Spike, Especially since…” Twilight told him, but was interrupted by Trixie.

“Hmm. How about…you?” Trixie said, pointing her hoof at Twilight. Twilight gulped nervously. “Well, how about it, hmm? Is there anything you can do that the Great and Powerful Trixie can’t do?” She asked, confident that Twilight can’t outdo her.

"You got some nerve, you know that?" Mico started to talk with no hesitation. "Won't accept me as a challenger, but pick on someone who doesn't want to-" Mico started before being interrupted again.

"Oh please. I don't need to waste my time with, whatever you happened to be. And besides, I remember saying that I am the most powerful pony to ever live. And you don't match that basic qualification." She mocked. Mico was now heated from that statement as his pupils changes from usual yellow to slightly glowing blue.

"Why you-"

“How about you, little hayseed?” Trixie mocked Applejack. This time making Mico's eyes revert back to normal, but still pretty angry.

“That’s it. I can’t stand for no more of this.” Applejack broke.

“You show her, AJ!” Spike encouraged her.

"Make her look worse!" Lloyd added.

Applejack got on the stage. “Can your magical powers do this?" Applejack asked, before she began whirling her lasso. She did a few tricks with it, jumping through the lasso a few times before tossing it to grab an apple off a tree, bringing the fruit back into her mouth and ate it. Everyone cheered for Applejack's performance. “Top that, Missy!” She told Trixie.

“Oh, ye a little talent, watch and be amazed at the magic of Trixie!” Trixie said, her hat levitated off her head as her horn glowed. She used her magic to grab Applejack’s rope and hypnotized her like a snake. Trixie used the other end of the rope to grab an apple from the same tree. The other end that Applejack was distracted by tied her legs together and placed the apple in her mouth. The audience cheered and laughed at Trixie’s performance.

“Once again, the Great and Powerful Trixie prevails.” Trixie announced as Applejack hopped to the end of the stage. Mico, still angry, walked over, lit up his horn with red aura and uses his Aggrobeam to cut the rope off.

“There’s no need to go strutting around and showing off like that.” Rainbow Dash challenged her. Macoy flew next to her.

“Oh?” Trixie replied.

"That's our job." The two Pegasi took off. Rainbow Dash flew to the windmill, flew around the rotor a couple times and shot off to the sky like a rocket.

Macoy Diamondhero flew towards the river and flew circles around it, making tornadic water sprouts before taking to the skies.

Rainbow Dash penetrated through a bunch of clouds and stopped in front of the sun at the same time as Macoy. They crossed and took the paths the other took. Macoy circled the clouds with lightning aura trailing behind him, making a mini-wedge tornado around the clouds that made them disappeared.

Rainbow dash flies though the water sprouts, taking droplets with her as Macoy did the same. Both of them landed on the stage on opposite sides, letting the droplets hit them and create rainbows above them, the same colors as their manes.

"We aren't called Dash and Indigo for nothing." Macoy Diamondhero said with a smirk. Everyone began to cheer for them.

“When Trixie is through, the only thing they’ll call you two is ‘losers’”. Trixie said before she started using her magic again. She shot a beam at the rainbow over Rainbow Dash and wrapped it around her, also taking one of the still spinning Watersprouts. Trixie spun the rainbow around, creating a tornado that Rainbow Dash was trapped in, trapping Macoy in the water sprout. The two tornadoes flew through the sky for a few seconds before they stopped when they reached the ground. Macoy got out his head of the tornado the same time they reached the ground.

"I'm gonna be sick." The two of them said.

“Seems like anypony with a DASH of a good sense would think twice before flying to an Indigo tussle with the Great Trixie.” Trixie said before she summoned a thunder cloud behind them both.

Mico quickly uses his Reality Bending to make the 2 tornadoes disappear and pushing Rainbow and Macoy aside before getting shocked by the cloud.

The crowd began laughing.

"Bluey! Are you okay?" Twilight asked, very concerned. The only damage to him was that he was currently being laughed at. Despite being stuck by lightning, it doesn't affected him.

"I'm fine." Mico said as he shook his hair and facial hair back to normal. He neither sounded fine, or looked happy.

"What we need is another unicorn to challenge her. Someone with some magic of her own." Spike said.

“Yeah! A unicorn to show this unicorn who’s boss.” Rainbow Dash agreed.

“A real unicorn to unicorn tussle.” Applejack added.

"Yeah! Give her the what for LOLOLOLOL!" Lloyd exclaimed, levitating himself with his own magic.

Rarity used her magic to bring the unicorn back to the ground.

"Enough. Enough, all of you. I take your hint, but Rarity is above such nonsense. Rainbow Dash, Macoy Diamondhero and Applejack may behave like ruffians, but Rarity conducts herself with beauty and grace." Rarity said.

“Ooo! What’s the matter? Afraid you’ll get a hair out of place in that rat's nest you call a mane?” Trixie insulted, trying to bait Rarity into a challenge.

“Oh… it… is… on.” Rarity said, taking the bait. She got onstage, trotting around Trixie. “You may think you’re tough, with all your so-called powers, but there is more to magic than your brutish ways. A unicorn needs to be more than just muscle.” She said, before using her magic to grab Trixie’s blue curtains. “A unicorn needs to have style.” The curtains wrapped around her, and she created a dress with it. “A unicorn’s not a unicorn without grace and beauty.” She said, showing off her dress to the audience.

Trixie gave a grin. She had something sinister planned for this.

"A unicorn is not a unicorn without grace and beauty." Rarity said.

“Rarity won’t let Trixie get the best of her." JR said.

"She's strong, she's beautiful, she's—" Spike began. That stopped when Trixie blasted a spell that changed Rarity's hair. Everyone gasped in shock.

"Quick! I need a mirror! Get me a mirror! What did she do to my hair? I know she did something terrible to my hair!" Rarity exclaimed in a panic.

“Nothing.” Twilight lied.

“It’s fine.” Rainbow Dash lied.

“It’s gorgeous.” Applejack lied, which was the biggest shock.

"One of the best moments I've seen in my entire life!" Lloyd said with puppy eyes.

Mico then materializes a mirror in front of Rarity.

"Ugh, no. Green hair! Not green hair! Such an awful, awful color!" Rarity cried out as she ran past a mare with green hair.

“Well! I never.” The mare exclaimed angrily. Lloyd also criticized Rarity and said, "Hey! Having either green coat or mane's really cool, it's related to blue and red."

"Well Twilight, guess it's up to you. Come on, show her what you're made of." Spike said.

"What do you mean? I'm nothing special." Twilight said.

“Yes, you are. You’re better than her.” Lloyd continued.

"I'm not better than anyone." She continued trying to get out of the spotlight.

“Ha! You think you’re better than the Great and Powerful Trixie? You think you have more magical talent? Well, come on. Show Trixie what you’ve got. Show us all.” Trixie challenged Twilight. All eyes began to fall on her.

“Who, me? I’m just a run of the mill citizen of Ponyville. No powerful magic here. I, uh… I think I hear my laundry calling. Sorry. Got to go.” Twilight declined and rushed back to the library. Mico began to follow.

"Twilight? Mico?" Lloyd and Spike called, watching them walk/run away. JR and Macoy followed the duo

“Ha. Once again, the Great and Powerful Trixie has proven herself to be the most amazing, unicorn all of Equestria.” Trixie proclaimed. “Unh. Was there ever any doubt?” She said before walked off stage. As the crowd disbanded, Lloyd and Spike looked at each other and nodded.



Later on, Trixie was brushing her mane in front of a mirror before being brought a smoothie by snips.

“Here’s the oat smoothie you asked for with extra hay, just how you like it.” Snips said. Offering it to her on a tray.

“Mmm. Hay.” Snails drooled.

Trixie levitated the plastic cup and slurped through the straw. “Yes?” Trixie asked them, who seemed to be waiting for something.

“Oh, tell us another story, Great and Powerful Trixie.” Snips asked.

“Yeah, tell us about how you vanquished the Ursa major.” Snails asked. Trixie scoffed.

"Guh! Trixie is far too exhausted from performing feats beyond imagination. Begone with you until morning." She told them. They bowed and began to back away.

"Oh, of course, Great and Powerful Trixie." Snails said.

"Anything you say. We are at your beck and call." Snips bounced off. They continued to back off before Spike and Lloyd spoke.

"What are you two doin'?" Lloyd asked, showing his fangs

"Just bringin' the G and PT a—" Snips started before Spike interrupted.

"The what?" Spike asked.

"The Great and Powerful Trixie." Snips translated.

"Mean and Pompous more like." Lloyd remarked.

"Just bringin' her a smoothie." Snips finished.

"How can you fall for her lameness? She's just a show-off. Unlike Twilight and Mico, who—" Spike tried to said before Snips spoke up again.

"First off, Mico's way too lazy to use his own magic." Snips said. Lloyd let off a wolf growl. "And second, The Great and Powerful Trixie vanquished an Ursa Major. Can your Twilight or Blue Guy claim that?"

"One, my 3 siblings and Twilight saved Celestia AND the Summer Sun Festival. And B; Were you guys actually there?" Lloyd asked. They both had to think for a moment.

"Well, eh, uh... no, but—" Snips tried to justify.

"But nothing. The proof is in the pudding." Spike interrupted this time. Snails drooled once again.

"I like pudding." Snails said.

"Me too, but unless an ursa major comes waltzing up the street for Trixie to vanquish, I am not gonna believe a word she says, and neither should you!" Lloyd said. Spike nodded in agreement. This gave Snips an idea, obviously a bad one.

"Hm, an Ursa walkin' up the street, hey? Snails! You thinkin' what I'm thinkin'?" Snips asked Snails.

"Why is it they call it a flea market when they don't really sell fleas?" Snails asked. Spike continued to look unamused.

"Because the term comes from the phrase, marché aux puces. Literally translating to market of the fleas." Lloyd answered.

"I'm not even gonna ask why you know that. Snails, come on!" Snips said as he began to walk away. Lloyd and Spike walked back to the library.

"Also Spike, that's not what lameness means." Lloyd added.



As they came back to the library, Mico and Twilight were having a bit of an argument.

"Twilight, would you put down that book and just listen to me?" Mico said. Twilight's book was on a pedestal as she was reading it.

"Didn't you see how they hated Trixie's bragging, Mico? If I go out there and show off my magic, I run the risk of losing them as friends." Twilight retorted, looking back at him. Lloyd and Spike peeked in.

"It's not the same thing, Twilight. You'll be using your magic to stand up for your friends. She was hated because she was a loud mouth in addition to being a jerk. You saw what she did to them, showing up is not the same as showing off." Mico said back.

"No, Mico, it's exactly the same!" Twilight said, beginning to raise her voice.

“Come on, Twilight. Any one of these tricks, even the teeniest, would be enough to show up Trixie.” he continued to insist.

“I don’t want to be seen as a bragger like Trixie.” Twilight said, before using her magic to summon a blue door in front of Mico. He tried to say something else but the door was closed in his face. Instead of opening it, Mico simply looked over the top of it, considering he was much taller than the average door.

"But you're the best. Spike, our friends and I tell you all the time." Mico told her.

“Ugh! Please, Bluey. I said no.” Twilight exclaimed. Mico let out a gruff and got off the door, opening it to peek through.

"Fine, if you aren't gonna show Trixie Who's the truly great and powerful unicorn around here, then at least do me a favor." Mico said, slightly cold tone in his voice.

"Now les go please." He requested, slightly less cold in tone. Mico stormed off to his room, with a couple of books.

Lloyd and Spike looked at each other.

"They seem pretty tense." Spike pointed out.

"No kidding. Let's go get them some ice cream to calm them down." Lloyd suggested, pulling a bag of bits out of his mane. Spike nodded and the two ran off to Sugar Cube Corner.



'Time to ask my mom some questions.' JR thought as he was in the middle of Everfree Forest, he then used his Reality Bending to summon a yellow orb to talk with his mom. The orb then turned into magenta color as a voice was heard.

"JR! I'm so glad you're safe. Also, is your siblings okay as well!?" the voice from the magenta orb said.

"I'm okay mom. What about you?" JR answered.

"I'm okay, and..." The voice then paused, the next second it continued.

"...my, what a show that was! How did you enjoy meeting Trixie for the first time? Quite the showboat, wouldn't you say? Certainly, something you and your siblings can relate right!"

JR then said something again, "I know mom, though I don't showoff just because of that, I showoff because it's fun. Plus, despite having enhanced 5 types of senses, and other abilities as well, doesn't mean I am better than Mico himself." he added, "Think you can answer my question."

"Of course my dear."

"This is about how to fully control and use your powers beyond it's limit right, Macoy have already got that one."

"Correct mom!!" JR said with excitement. "How can I get that one, you said it was from the scroll that dad showed me and my siblings once."

"Well, to fully control your powers and push them beyond the limits, you must be on a certain place, at the certain time, and certain situations." the voice from the orb continued, "The chances are beyond extremely rare, it's gonna be like 1 in 1 Trillion."

"Wut the heck!!" JR shouted silently. "But OK."

"I hope you're safe today, and, our conversation is ending, I am running out of energy." with that, the orb's color returned to yellow. JR then dissipates the orb and look in the sky with worry in his face.

"Mom, I hope you are safe, wherever you are."



In the Everfree Forest, Snips and Snails were walking towards a cave, Slightly spooked by the way the scary forest looked in the dark. They walked into a cave and it only got darker from there. So much so that the only thing that could be seen from both of their perspectives were their eyes.

"Oh, how are we gonna find an ursa major when I can't even see my own hoof in front of my face?" Snips asked.

"Hold on." Snails said as she began to spark his horn to light up the cave. Like the classic 3rd time's a charm trope, it didn't light up the cave until the 3rd try.

"Oh, heh. That's better." Snips said. It was at that moment when the 2 of them realized that the breeze they were feeling on their backs wasn't coming from the entrance of the cave, but from the snout of an Ursa behind them. They turned around and saw the ursa wake up and growl at them.

They both screamed as the ursa roared.



Lloyd and Spike were eating some of the ice cream they just bought, by the edge of town. Not from the containers, they had ice cream on cones. Spike's was strawberry ice cream. Lloyd's was cheese ice cream.

Then they heard Snips screaming and Snails panting. They both looked up and saw the 2 colts running past them.

"Snips? Snails? What's going on?" Spike asked.

"Can't talk now." Snips exclaimed.

"Got a major problem!" Snails exclaimed. Lloyd and Spike looked towards them confused.

"Yeah, ursa major, to be exact." Snips said. Spike scratched his head as Lloyd turned around, seeing the ursa. Hearing it Growl too. Spike gasped as he turned around.

"That's more of a minor incident." Lloyd said before scooping spike on his back and runs in a flash, startling Snips and Snails. As he ran, the containers of ice cream floated in the air from his speed. He came back and Spike grabbed them and they continued to evade the ursa. It roared and followed them

"Trixie!" Snips and Snails exclaimed.

"Twilight, Mico!" "JR, Macoy!" Lloyd and Spike called.

The two colts got to Trixie's wagon and banged on her door. Calling out for Trixie and talking over one another in a panic. Trixie was not happy when she got to her window.

"Trixie thought she said the Great and Powerful Trixie did not want to be disturbed!" Trixie berated. Snips laughed nervously.

"We— We have a— a tiny problem." Snips said nervously.

"Actually it's a big one." Snails said.

"What is so important that you cannot wait until morning to disturb Trixie?" She asked angrily. Her anger turned to shock when she heard the growl and roar of an Ursa. She looked up and saw the beast knocked over some trees and that made her scream and opened the door, hitting the two colts as she ran out and away. Screaming her head off. Snips and Snails were right behind her. The ursa crushed her wagon and roared after them.



Lloyd and Spike ran inside the library, where Twilight was still reading the book.

"Twilight! You've gotta come! Quick!" Spike said as he hopped off.

"I already told Mico you two, I don't wanna show up Trixie!" Twilight told them, Not wanting to go through the same argument with different creatures.

"No! You don't understand, it's-" Lloyd tried to say.

The roar of an Ursa was the next thing they heard, interrupting what Lloyd was going to say next.

"That's not what I think it is, is it?" Mico asked as he came out of his room, wearing a green glasses.

"Only a minor chance it isn't." Lloyd responded.



JR had spent a few minutes using 6 out of hundreds of powers to improve his skills, despite already knowing how to use them. He was able to use Pyrokinesis to make a crescent-shaped fire that cuts through one tree, he then shoots a water beam to extinguish the fire in the tree, he blows a gust of wind in all directions, shooking the branches in the tree and making some leaves fall in the ground, he also released a yellow electrical shockwave that lit up the leaves in the trees around him with dim yellow light. He stomped his front hooves and small, rocky spikes shoot out around him, that dissipated before going more than 10 meters. And the last and his favorite power, he lightly stomp his right hoof and leaves started to grow back from the trees, he also used it to cause the grass around him to reach his stomach's height.

'Goddamn, and I had a good feeling about it, too.'

JR's thoughts were stirred when he felt the ground shake without him using Geokinesis. As soon as he heard ponies screaming from far away thanks to his enhanced hearing, he dashed towards Ponyville, with his eyes glowing blue once more. He saw a crowd of ponies running away from something, panic and fear spread across all of their faces. He ran past them, deducing that the source of their panic must have been that way. It didn't take him long to find the trouble.

After turning left onto another street, JR saw it, a giant, bear creature was rampaging through the town. Its body was blue and transparent, speckled with white stars and constellations. Every step it took cracked the earth beneath it. It let out a monstrous roar as it began chewing on the roof of one of the houses.

"It must be the Ursa Major." he mumbled to himself.

JR turned his attention away from the Ursa when he spotted movement in the corner of his eye. He saw Twilight carrying Spike on her back, along with Mico, Macoy and Lloyd following them, running in the direction of the commotion. He caught up with her as she approached two colts, who he recognized from Trixie's performance earlier that day. "What's going on!?" She asked them.

"We brought an Ursa to town!" The chubby one replied.

"You WHAT!?!" Twilight reacted appropriately.

"Don't worry, the great and powerful Trixie will vanquish it!" The lanky one reassured her, gesturing to the magician who JR and his brothers now noticed was standing a few feet away from them.

"...I can't." Trixie reluctantly admitted.

"WHAT!?" The colts were taken aback.

"I can't! I never have! No pony can vanquish an Ursa Major! I just made the whole story up to make me look better!"

"MADE IT UP!?!"

"Jesus Christ what a shocker!" Mico said as he raised an eyebrow towards his 3 siblings, he then facepalmed(or hoofpalmed), followed by Lloyd, then JR and Macoy simultaneously.

Trixie's confession was interrupted when the ground shook again. Everyone turned to see the Ursa was getting closer.

"Everyone, stand back, because terrors are about to be even better." JR said with smug. Twilight and their friends look with concern, but they give him nod before Mico leads everyone away. JR then look back at the Ursa

He smirked as he casually strolled over to the Ursa, which towered over him. Despite that, he wasn't worried in the slightest, 'Come on JR, you can do it. This thing is barely even the size of a titan', he thought. "Hey there, big fella! What brings you around here? Lookin' for some picnic baskets to steal?"

The Ursa looked down at the yellow pony, growling. It roared before slamming its paw down on top of him. When the Ursa lifted its paw, however, there was no sign of JR. "So, you wanna explain why you're so angry?" The Ursa turned to find its target a few feet away from where he previously stood, leaning against one of the houses and seeming quite relaxed despite the situation. "I'm guessing you either get pissed off on this 2 kids, or there's something else I'm missing here."

JR approached the Ursa a few feet before stopping a few feet, creating a gust of wind in all direction. The Ursa stopped for a moment before JR was enveloped in yellow aura. His mane flowing like a wave from oceans while glowing neon green, orange and red. His tail also flows the same manner as his mane, while glowing neon blue and yellow. His bare hooves glowing green while looking at the Ursa with golden eyes.

The Ursa took a swing at him, and JR does nothing but raise his right hoof, raising a rocky wall that blocks the Ursa. He jumped as the rocky wall disappeared. JR enveloped himself with fire aura as he flipped mid-air, creating a fiery psychic knife that hit the Ursa in left paw. The Ursa howled in pain as the flames dissipates. JR landed on the ground. The Ursa glared at the pony, its eyes filled with pure rage.

But unbeknownst to everyone, Black Entity was standing on a random tree, his red aura-enveloped left hand raised pointing at the Ursa, "You don't know what you're doing, JR. But atleast I know what I'm doing." He said with smirk.

Back to the fight, "Oh!? What's that? Are you saying 'I shouldn't play with fire'? Too bad I'm too brave to avoid that." JR said. In the background, Mico caught a glimpse of red eyes in the shadows, whom he recognized as Black Entity, his eyes widened.

JR then said, "You know, if you hate fire, then you should go for water instead." The Ursa roared as it charged at JR, he did nothing about it again, instead he raised his right hoof and shoots water like a fire hydrant. The Ursa was pushed back from the attack.

In the background, Black Entity chuckled, "Useless ability."

The Monster roared as it swung it's claw at the yellow pony 2 times, both attacks easily avoided via teleporting in a yellow flash. With an opening, JR shoot a strong gust of wind that pushed back the Ursa farther than his water beam. He shoots 5 yellow lightning bolts that hits its face.

JR materializes a green spectral axe and waited for the monster to charge, and it come true. He evaded the attack by running to its left and swung his axe sideways, the Ursa roared in pain and stopped in place, giving it a strange look from JR and everyone watching.

His eyes falls in a certain tree where Black Entity stands, his eyes widened as he looks to his friends while pointing a hoof on it. Everyone saw Black Entity's glowing red eyes in the dark, shivering everypony's spines.

JR then let his axe dissipates as his hooves glow brighter, all while evading another attack. His hooves then turned red as the Ursa charged again, JR then pushed his front hooves forward and released a wave of fire, making the Ursa roar again. He turned around and danced as if the problem has been solved, but the Ursa charges again right behind him, earning a gasp from the watchers. But as it reaches JR, he strike his left hoof on behind making a small EMP that knocked back the Ursa. He stopped dancing, which made his friends go silent. "Is this all you got?" JR said with smile.

He then picked up his scarf and folded it in his eyes, making the crowd gasp again. "And I will do it with this." JR said with smile again. The Ursa let a roar, furious at not landing a single hit. It reared back on its hind legs then slammed both paws down into the ground. The Ursa had been sure that had done the trick, only to see JR had avoided harm once again, refusing to stay still, thanks to his enhanced vision.

JR then combined his wind and water, creating an ice beam that struck the Ursa in it's paw, while letting a painful roar. He then combined his wind and fire to create a fire whirlpool, pushing back the monster further.

JR will now finish the job, prompting him to evade another attack in a instant, he then blocked another attack by growing vines in the ground in front of him, blocking the Ursa. He made some distance from the monster as JR projected a thorn that pricked the Ursa in the face. JR then launched a brief yellow laser from his hooves that hits the Ursa, finishing the 1 minute-ish fight. JR returned to normal, his mane and tail both stopped glowing and flowing, along with his eyes being blue again, as well as his bare hooves stopped glowing green.

JR then unfolded his scarf and wear it back to his neck as he spotted Mico, Lloyd, Macoy, Twilight and company. Several townspony came out of hiding after the havoc.

"That was amazing, Goldie!" Spike praised the nature balancer.

"Now that's what I call 'True Potential'." Mico said while floating with cyan aura and clapping.

"Eh, it wasn't anything special. It was actually easier than I thought it would've been. Besides, it's not over just yet." Lloyd said as he turned back to the Ursa. While it was no longer mind controlled by Black Entity, it was still dangerous. The Ursa started to get back up, growling as it did. The fear returned to all the ponies (except JR and his siblings) watching. "Alright, Twilight. You're up."

"Me!?" She blanched.

"I know it's dangerous, but it's just an animal, so I don't wanna kill it. You, on the other hand, can handle it without violence. I'm sure you've got some spells for this, right?"

"Come on, Twilight! You can do it! I know you can!" Spike added, supporting Lloyd. Twilight looked nervously at the Ursa, who was starting to slowly stomp towards them. She gulped before a look of resolve settled on her face. She marched forward until she was right in front of the giant.

The purple unicorn put all of her focus into her horn as it began to glow. Mico and his siblings felt a breeze begin to pick up around them. From the breeze, soft music began to play. The occasional bounty hunter watched as the wind carried some purple musical notes, most likely from Twilight's magic, towards the Ursa. It seemed to enjoy the sound of the music as it started to calm down. In fact, it looked like it was getting sleepy.

"Nice use of number 16!" Spike whispered from beside him.

Twilight's horn flared up marginally as she put every inch of her focus into her magic. Off in the distance, a water tower became surrounded in a magenta hue. The water tank was levitated from the tower, tipped over to drain the water out, then carried over to a nearby barn. From within the barn, several "moos" could be heard from cows that were most likely inside, followed by a "Golly, don't ya know?" before the water tank came out the other end.

'That had to be the fastest milking of cows I've ever seen, or heard in this case.' Mico thought

"That's new." Spike commented from the side.

Twilight dug her hooves into the ground, the glow from her horn becoming as big as Twilight herself. She managed to levitate the Ursa itself just as it passed out. She brought the water tank filled with milk over to the beast and placed it in its paws. The Ursa began sucking on it like it was a baby's bottle.

The townsponies all watched in awe at Twilight's magical abilities. It was incredibly rare to see a unicorn pull off feats as great as this. Finally, Twilight lifted the Ursa all the way back towards the Everfree Forest until it was out of sight. She released her magic, sweating and panting from the strain. The crowd of ponies that had been watching all cheered, singing the purple unicorn's praises.

"Heavens to Betsy! We knew ya had ability, but not that much!" Applejack commended her.

"I'm sorry. Please, please don't hate me!" Twilight begged, much to everyone's shock.

"Hate you!?" The girls all vocalized JR's thoughts. Why the heck would she think that? "Why, whatever do you mean, darling?" Rarity was the first to ask for clarification.

"Well, I know how much you all hated Trixie's showing off with her magic tricks, and I just thought-"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Magic's got nothing to do with it!" Rainbow Dash interrupted Twilight before she could finish. "Trixie's just a loudmouth."

"Most unpleasant." Rarity agreed.

"All hat an' no cattle." AJ added.

"So... you don't mind my magic tricks?"

"Your magic is a part o' who you are, sugar cube. And we like who you are. We're proud to have such a powerful, talented unicorn as our friend." The farm pony said.

"And after whupping that Ursa's hindquarters, we're even prouder!" Rainbow declared.

'Technically I whupped its hindquarters, but I guess we're just gonna gloss over that.' JR thought, with his mind being read by Mico, Macoy and Lloyd themselves

"You are?" A hopeful smile formed on Twilight's face, and the group all gave nods of confirmation. It seemed as though things were starting to wrap up nicely.

"Wow, Twilight! How'd you know what to do with that Ursa Major?" Spike asked, curious.

"That's what I was doing when you came looking for me. I was so intrigued by Trixie's bragging that I was compelled to do a little reading up on them."

"So it is possible to vanquish an Ursa Major all by yourself?" The dragon continued his question.

"That wasn't an Ursa Major. It was a baby, an Ursa Minor." She explained.

"That was just a baby!? Aw damnit! You're telling me I didn't even get to fight the real thing!?" JR cursed, followed by someone from the crowd of ponies shouting "Language!" at him.

Mico then facepalmed, followed by Lloyd, then Macoy. "I'm guessing it was only rampaging because, like JR said, it was possessed by Black Entity himself. Though, I don't think it would have come to town if someone hadn't woken it up." Mico glared at the two colts that brought the Ursa to town, and soon so did everybody else. He then impose his presence along with glowing blue eyes, but focuses on his friends now.

"Well, if that was an Ursa Minor, then... what's an Ursa Major like!?" The fear in Spike's voice was evident. Twilight took a few seconds to think of her response.

"...You don't wanna know." She eventually settled with.

"No, actually, I really wanna know now."

Everyone frozed at the voice and turned to see Black Entity sitting on the same tree he was standing the whole time. "I bet my dark magic it is 12 meters tall." With that, He disappeared in a glitchy aura.

Everyone's attention was drawn away from Black Entity when they heard the sound of someone chuckling. It was then they saw Trixie emerging from the crowd. "Ha! You may have vanquished an Ursa Minor, but you will never have the amazing, showstopping ability of the great and powerful TRIXIE!" The showboat threw down a smoke bomb to make herself disappear... only to be seen running away in the distance, not having teleported at all.

"Why that little...!" Rainbow Dash was about to fly after Trixie, only to be stopped by Twilight.

"Just let her go. Maybe someday she'll learn her lesson." She sighed.

"Now, about you two." Mico addressed the two colts, who were in the process of trying to sneak away. They chuckled nervously when they saw that they had been caught. He impose his presence again, this time making their area glow blue.

"W-We're sorry that we woke up the Ursa Minor." the smaller apologized.

"We just wanted to see some awesome magic!" The skinny one added.

"Yeah! And the way you vanquished that Ursa Minor was awesome!"

'These two seem a bit too happy about almost getting the entire town killed for some entertainment.' JR thought.

Twilight, feeling the same way as the blue unicorn, did not let up with her glaring. Noticing this, the two kids lost their smiles. "We deserve whatever punishment you give us."

"For starters, you can clean up this mess." Twilight gestured to some of the wreckage caused by the Ursa Minor. "And... what do you think, Spike? Should I give them number 25?"

The two kids shared a look of horror as Spike grew a devilish smile. "Oh, 25? Yes! And I think I deserve it, too."

'Huh?' JR thought, 'Oh wait, the spell that made myself some good mustache.'

"Huh?" The colts echoed his thoughts.

"I think you're right." Twilight's horn glowed, and the two colts flinched in preparation for whatever the unicorn was about to do. Spike, who was about to receive the same treatment, actually looked excited. With a flash, Twilight cast the spell on Spike and the colts. As for what the spell did....

...It gave the three of them mustaches.

"Sweet~!" The three of them all said together. Seeing them all wearing the facial hair proudly, it made JR want to have those again, and he did on himself, much to Lloyd's wheezing.



After the whole incident was resolved, the townsponies all returned to their homes, including JR and his brothers. It was now the next day and was wondering why would Black Entity do that last night, the Mane 6 and Spike gathered around JR and his relatives. He then summoned 6 balls that resembles the powers he used last night too, the girls are shocked at his near limitless powers while doing an experiment. 

Macoy also joined the experiment and uses his Light/Dark magic on experiment, despite being weaker than JR's, his powers are tenfold that of princesses. Their experiment was over and Mico tried asking his mom why Black Entity is involved last night, but she doesn't know why, much to his disappointment.

'Both Macoy and JR got their true potentials, it's now Lloyd's turn. But when?' Mico thought.

Warning: Fighting, so rated T(Actually 10+), also swearing



A tall pony covered in robe was walking towards Ponyville, seeing a large amount of smoke that was spreading. The cloud appeared to be originating from a high mountain off in the distance. Obviously, this seemed like something to be concerned about, so the robed figure started asking around town. From what they all said, the source of the smoke was, thankfully, not a raging fire.

The smoke was, in actuality, coming from a full-grown dragon.

Out of nowhere, Mico appeared after a blue blur as he walks towards the robed pony and said, "Hey buddy, long time no see."

"Oh hey Mico, have a problems to solve?"

Mico then responded, "Ofcourse. See the black clouds up there?..." The robed figure looked up to see the smokes in the sky as he responded, "Oh"

"Ofcourse we can do th-"

"Really? You can do it without me or Christian." The robed figure interrupted as his hood falls off on accident, thanks to Mico's extremely fast reflexes, he teleported away with the robed figure.

The duo reappeared behind one of the trees as the robed figure had his face revealed, he had almost black coat, atleast in his head, has a horn slightly longer than Mico's, green eyes and blue colored mane.

"That was a close call, my identity shouldn't be revealed to the ponies or princesses." The amber stallion said.

"WHY!?" Mico shouted quietly, the unknown pony quickly responded, "You don't wanna know." He shooked his head, earning a facepalm(hoofpalm in this case) from Mico.

"You know what, our friends and siblings are waiting." Mico said as he teleported away, leaving the amber pony alone.



(Insert theme song here please)




According to the townsponies, Twilight had received a letter from the princess informing her of this. Seeing an opportunity to possibly fight an actual, fully mature, real-life dragon, Macoy and his siblings went looking for Twilight immediately to ask for details. He found her, as well as the other girls, at the Golden Oaks Library. Twilight had been packing her saddlebags while everyone else was crowded around her. When Mico entered, all eyes turned to him.

"Mico, where have you been?! Shoudn't you be here already?" Twilight spoke up first.

"Sorry, just talking to an old friend of mine. I'm guessing you wanted to tell me about the dragon?" Mico said with a smile.

"Yes, we might need your help dealing with it. If we don't, it could cover all of Equestria in smoke!" She stuffed a rolled-up parchment into her bag as she spoke.

"What in the name of all things cinnamon swirl is a full-grown dragon doin' here in Equestria, anyway?" Applejack butted in, asking the question on everypony's mind.

"Sleeping." Twilight stated simply, her answer catching everyone present off guard. "According to Princess Celestia, he's taking a nap. His snoring is what's causing all this smoke." She explained as she placed a stack of books in her bag.

"He should really see a doctor. That doesn't sound healthy at all!" Pinkie commented.

"Well, at least he's not snoring fire! What are we meant to do about it?" Rarity added.

"I'll tell you what we're meant to do; Give him the boot!" Everyone looked to Rainbow Dash, who was flying above them even indoors. To emphasize her point, she bucked a wooden statue of a horse's head. Twilight stopped it from falling over with her magic, then lifted it out of the way just as Rainbow dive bombed towards it for a second strike. This caused the rainbow speedster to crash into Macoy, who protected the bookshelf while looking unfazed from the collision.

"We need to encourage him to take a nap somewhere else." Twilight corrected her. "Princess Celestia has given us this mission and we must not fail. If we do, Equestria will be covered in smoke for the next 100 years!" JR and Lloyd heard Fluttershy gasp in horror at those words.

'Wouldn't be the first time I've had to work with a time limit. Shouldn't be too hard. But then again, just a dragon that's the size of Grave Digger.' Macoy thought.

"Talk about getting your beauty sleep." Rarity remarked.

Twilight finished packing her saddlebags and levitated them onto her back. "All right, everypony, I need you to gather supplies quickly. We've got a long journey ahead of us. Let's meet back here in less than an hour."

"Okay girls and boys, you heard her! The fate of Equestria is in our hooves! Do we have what it takes!?" Rainbow pumped the group up, and they all cheered as they exited the library.

All except for Fluttershy, JR noted.

"Um...actually..." The shy pegasus seemed hesitant, but followed the others out of the library anyway.

'Wonder what that was about. Maybe she's afraid of the dragon? This is Fluttershy we're talking about.'

Not dwelling on it further, JR followed the rest out of the library. He didn't really need to pack much since he already had everything he needed with him. Still, it wouldn't hurt to double check. He stopped as he turned back around and poked his head into the library. "Oh, Twilight? Quick question."

"Oh? How can I help, JR?" Twilight smiled, happy to answer any questions her friend might have.

"I'm using my nature-based powers to get him to other places?"

"..." Twilight's smile dropped and was replaced with a deadpan glare. "I don't think it will work."

"Okay, then." With that, the nature protector left to double check if there was anything left he needed to pack.



When Mico and his 3 siblings go out of the library, JR expected his cave near Fluttershy's cottage to be normal after lefting it 5 minutes ago. 

Instead, he found his cave glowing, a sun that's 2X the size of him is there, accompanied by another mini-star, Rigel, it is nearly 3X the size of the miniature sun. And other stars in the form of hoof-sized glowing balls.

His furnitures and other equipments are floating aimlessly in the air, defying gravity.

"Like what I've done with the place?" JR spotted the certain blue colored star, Rigel, where the voice came from.

"No, dad. It's actually cool, should I summon my 3 siblings here?" JR said.

"HUH? What do you mean 3 siblings?"

"Oh right. Christian and Justin's not still here. What about you? Where are you?" JR answered.

"Well, I am in the middle of the nowhere. Now if you don't have your weapons. Well too bad, atleast summon your siblings to gather their weapons."

"Okay." JR said as his eyes glowed yellow, in under a second, a yellow flash occured and Mico, Macoy and Lloyd are in the spot where the flash happened.

"OW." The 3 siblings shouted as they picked themselves up. The next second, they soon find themselves in JR's cave, what intrigued them the most was there re a lot of stars like Sun and Rigel. Atleast miniature versions.

"JR!! Why did you teleported us here?!" Mico shouted in annoyance.

"Well here." The voice coming from the blue sun Rigel said.

"Dad, is that you?" Mico, Macoy and Lloyd said in unison as Mico gave the 2 a deadpan look.

"Ofcourse my dear children. Oh wait, and also my students."

"So what brings us here?" Lloyd asked, the voice then the voice answered, "Your weapons back home."

Realization hits Mico, along with Macoy and Lloyd, "Ớ̸͔͕͌̔̏̓̓͋̚ͅͅM̵̪̫̖̠̩̲͙̏̀̄͂̿͠G̴̡̲̲̯͖̰̠̗̙̘̑́!̴͚̙̰̘͓̲̞̦̹̈́̆́͘ͅ!̶̠͉͎̬̮̰̤̈́̐ͅ ̸̅ͅW̵̨̢̬͍̤̘̩̤̭͊͜ͅḥ̵̢͍͙̠̮̭̦̮͂̍̋̐̂͊̅e̴̡̧͇̻͔͓̫̠̠̓̽͆̈̆̕͝͝r̶̨̾e̷̘̱̼͒ͅ ̴̺͗̆̐͛͂̈i̵̡͖̩͆͑̾̋̽̌s̸̢̲͓͍̲̙̳̲̮̙͛̃ ̵̨̨͍̞̠̗͉͊̓͒̆̓̓̚ͅm̵̖̺̜̀͌y̷̻̘̺͎̼͕͓̓͜ ̴̭̘͓͋́̆̏͑͊̄̓̕w̶̝͚̫̜͈̌̐̌́h̴̡̺̻̝̪͇̃̓̑̉͌̀̒͝ͅi̸̩̼͚̪̼͇̯͍͘p̷̼͎̥̅̅-̶̼͙̠͔̇͠l̸̢̦̻͔̲̩̤̠̱͆̎̌́̔̀̐̓̈́̎i̵̛̞̭̤̼̝̗̳̮̪̯̊̒̅̈͒̿͗͘͝͝k̷͓̥̱͐́͑͋̀ẹ̴͕̞̣͕́̕ ̴͖͙̲͚͇̭͈̃̀ŝ̷̛̌̎͜ẃ̵̨̠͉̫̲̘̝͂̈́̎̆́̋̿͌̄̋ͅͅͅo̵͍̲̠͌̓̔͆͠r̵̭̰͉̰̆͋́̈̍̂̀̆̍͜d̸̛͓̰̫̪͚̘͆̌̏͋̔͜?̴͔͖̜̺̹̠̽́̈́̑͌̾͗̐̚!̵̭̺̣̠̝̝̔̎̀̋" Macoy yelled so loud it was heard as far as Ponyville, while his 3 siblings covered their ears.

"Geez, your overacting." Mico responded after Macoy's earpiercing yell occured.

"Well what will we replace our weapons with until we find them?" Lloyd asked towards the Rigel.

"Something similar to your old weapons." The Rigel said as it's light along with the miniature sun and their fellow stars slightly dimmed, "I will be gone in a few seconds, and your weapons can be any type okay."

Those were the last words of the voice from mini Rigel before their light completely disappear. Mico, along with his 3 brothers look with a huge worry.

"Okay then, here's my weapons right guys?" Mico said as he pulled out a sword, along with dual daggers out of nowhere. The daggers' handle was made of wood with the blade being silver, it was also curved. The sword has wooden handle with dark grey metallic blade.


"I'm next." JR rolled his eyes as he pulled out an axe. It has wooden handle with the blade being blue.

"Now for mine." Lloyd joined in as he pulled a long stick. It was made of bamboo, and it was also an actual bo staff.

"And don't laugh at mine." Macoy sarcasticly said, "We know!" His brothers responded. He then pulled out a whip, it was light grey with brown handle.




Mico and co. was on their way to the meeting point, it occurred to Mico that the girls might wonder where they got those weapons from. They had to have come from somewhere, and Mico couldn't tell them about his dad. Instead, he came up with a simple but effective cover story for when they inevitably ask. Currently, he, his siblings and the other girls were lined up side by side in front of Twilight, listening to her give a briefing on their mission. Mico stood on the far left of the line up, and next to him was Fluttershy. After her was Pinkie Pie, Lloyd, Rarity, Macoy, Applejack, JR and finally Rainbow Dash.

"Alright everypony, listen up. I'm mapping out the fastest route, but we've all got to keep a good pace if we expect to make it up the  mountain by nightfall." The purple unicorn paced back and forth in front  of the group as she spoke.

"M-M-Mountain?" Mico heard Fluttershy whimper from beside him.

"The dragon is in that cave at the very top." Twilight continued, pointing to the mountain in question.

"Looks pretty cold up there." AJ commented.

"You bet it is! The higher you go, the chillier it gets!" Rainbow added.

"Good thing I brought my scarf." Rarity pulled out a pink scarf from her  saddlebag and wrapped it around her neck, striking a pose.

"Oh yeah, that'll keep you nice and cozy." Rainbow chuckled sarcastically.

"And I don't even need those." Mico said with smug look. Making the 6 mare look at him with blank face.

"What do you mean?" Rarity asked, in which he answered, "I may feel cold, but I cannot freeze to death. I only wear scarf for looking cool." Mico said as he dabbed. Everyone then forget about it and focused on the main subject.

As Twilight began scanning the map for the best route, Fluttershy  approached her looking rather nervous. More nervous than usual, anyway.  "Um, e-excuse me, Twilight? I know you're busy, but-"

"Uh-huh... well, we could go this way." Twilight mumbled to herself, only paying half-attention to the shy pegasus.

"But if I could just have a second-"

"Uh-huh... No, we want to avoid that."

"So, um, I-I was thinking that, um... maybe I should just stay here in Ponyville."

"Uh-huh."

"Oh,  good! I'll stay here and-" As Fluttershy had just begun to walk away,  Twilight finally seemed to process what the pegasus had been saying and  snapped out of her reverie.

"Wait! You have to come! Your way with wild animals will surely come in handy." She stopped Fluttershy in her tracks.

"I-I don't think I-"

"Oh, and don't worry about your little friends in the meadow. Spike's got it covered while you're gone." As if on cue, Spike appeared next to Fluttershy, surrounded by several little critters.

"You can count  on me!" The baby dragon flashed a smile. The bunny sitting on top of  him then proceeded to stomp on his head repeatedly, both hurting Spike  and causing the critters to scatter. Spike fruitlessly yelled for them  to come back as he chased after them, showing that he was clearly the  best candidate to watch over Fluttershy's pets.

"I don't really  think he's up to the task. Maybe-" Before Fluttershy could argue  further, Twilight had already rolled up the map and started approaching  the others. "But-... But-..." Fluttershy squeaked as she curled up into a  ball.

"Are you sure you want Fluttershy to come along?" Rainbow asked, clearly  skeptical. "I mean, that pony's afraid of her own shadow. She's just  gonna slow us down."

"Well, you remember what you said earlier RD, give him the boot incase she doesn't want to go with us." Mico said.

"Like I said before, we just need to ask him to sleep somewhere else.  I'd prefer that we resolve this as peacefully as possible. Besides,  Fluttershy's just a little nervous. Once we get going, I'm sure she'll  be fine." The second Twilight finished her sentence, Fluttershy let out a  yelp, drawing their attention. Apparently, Fluttershy had literally gotten scared by her own shadow, leaping into the bushes to hide from it.

Twilight turned to face the rest of the group once more. "All right everypony, move out!"

At Twilight's command, everyone started running in the direction of the mountain, even JR using his telekinesis forcibly carrying Fluttershy with them.



The group of 10 ponies had just about reached the base of the  mountain when a loud roar echoed from the top. Fluttershy let out a fearful gasp as she leapt behind JR for cover.

"Woah! What was that?" Rainbow asked, staring wide-eyed at the top of the mountain.

"That is what it sounds like when a dragon snores." Twilight explained.

"It's- It's so... high." Fluttershy whimpered as she stared dreadfully at the mountain itself from behind the nature protector.

"Well, it is a mountain. I'm gonna fly up there and check it  out!" Rainbow was about to take off, only for Applejack to bite down on  her tail and pull her back. At this point, Mico and his brothers was starting to wonder if biting Rainbow's tail was a hobby for the farm pony.

"Hold on  now. I think we should all go up together. Safety in numbers an' all."  The others seemed to agree with Applejack, giving their own nods of approval.

"...Oh, alright." Rainbow crossed her hooves grumpily.  The group started to follow the path up the mountain, beginning their long trek. About a minute had passed before Rarity decided to strike up a conversation.

"Pardon me, Mico, but why are you only carrying a small saddlebag?" To answer her question, Mico then pulled out his stone sword from a small saddlebag, along with other things such as an apple, a couple of bits(the currency), his 2 daggers, his green ball that prongs blue spikes when needed, and many more.

"Well, when I was young, I enchanted my, well cyan bag so that anything I put it in there will fit. No matter how big they are." Mico answered.

"Oooooooh! How many can you fit!? How many can you you fit!?" Pinkie bounced around, joining the conversation.

"Eh, I can store infinite amount ya know. I also brought my weapons incase the problem gets worse." Mico said as he gestured at his stone sword and dagger. "My brothers also brought weapons."

Macoy then pulled out his spiked whip from his saddlebag as he lash it on a random tree.

"Whoa... that's so cool!" Rainbow said, hovering above them.

"Where did you get those from?" Twilight eyed the weapons curiously.

"I put in a request to Celestia to have them built. We have something similar back home, only they are based on legendary weapons, so I was able to give them the plans to build them." Mico lied, using the cover story he had come up with earlier.

"So your weapons are based on legendary weapons? Fascinating!" The purple unicorn said in wonder. "But wait... why not use the legendary weapons you mentioned?"

"Because... me and my siblings probably broke them or lost them in exchange of..." Mico paused before continuing, "You know what, forget what they're exchanged for."

"WHAT!?!" All the girls present shouted in unison. Twilight was the first to ask for clarification. "B-but, that doesn't make any sense! You shouldn't live too long because your legendary weapons are probably more than a millennium!?"

"Secrreeeeettt."

The girls all stared at him in silent shock.

"...Oh come on, is it really that surprising? The 2 princesses lived for more than a millennium, how is me living as long as them any different?" The blue stallion pointed to Rarity. "Listen, it's not a big deal, so let's keep moving. We're on a time limit, remember?"

While it was obvious the girls wanted to ask more questions, they knew Mico was right. They didn't have time to stand around. They needed to  reach the dragon as soon as possible. Reluctantly, they all turned around and continued their journey.

'Phew, close one. I'd rather not have to explain the reason why my 70,000+ years old weapon is missing in the first place. It would be an awkward conversation.' Mico thought.



The group continued walking along the path for a bit longer. The path was supposed to continue on for a while, but Twilight said their was a shortcut they could take to save them some time. When the stallions saw the shortcut though, caused confusion to them.

The shortcut was a steep slope that led up to a cliffside.

Mico was about to comment on how walking up something that steep would be physically impossible, only for the girls to start trotting on the incline like it was nothing. It took him a second to remember that they had hooves and could walk up mountains like this easily. Realizing this, he followed them up the slope, with his siblings following him as well.

'Is it me or the gravity here feels unreal?'

"I hear the only thing that sparkles more than a dragon's scales are the jewels they use to build their nests. Ooh! If I play my cards right, I might be able to convince him to part with a few." Rarity gushed at the thought. Despite the long hike, everyone seemed to be in good spirits. Well, all except Rainbow Dash, who seemed grumpy that she had to stick with the group instead of flying ahead. She hovered above the rest with her hooves crossed, clearly bored.

"Welcome to my cave, Rarity! Care for a diamond? RAARRR!!" Pinkie did her best dragon impression, which got both Rarity and Applejack to giggle.

"Girls! This is no laughing matter!" Twilight broke up their laughter just as they reached the top of the slope, stepping onto the cliff.

"Oh, lighten up, Twilight. They're just having some fun. I crack jokes about life-threatening events all the time. And I'm not called 'Mr. Jack-Of-All-Trades' for nothing." Mico defended them.

"We can't afford any distractions. The fate of Equestria depends on us. Fluttershy, you're the expert on wild creatures. What do you think the dragon will be like?" Twilight waited for a response, only to get silence as an answer. Everyone looked around in confusion, not seeing Fluttershy among the group. Rainbow spotted her further back down the mountain, hiding in some bushes.

"Hey, what are you waiting for? An invitation?" The rainbow speedster called out to her.

"Ooh! I think I have one in my bag!" Pinkie pulled out said invitation from her saddlebags, triggering an explosion of confetti. The confetti explosion ended up covering JR and Lloyd in the bits of confetti alongside Rainbow and Rarity. Mico was able to dodge it on time to avoid embarrassment(well, not actually embarrassment, he just hate being covered by many things).

"I-It's so... so... steep." Fluttershy cowered behind the bush.

"Well, it is a cliff. You could just, oh I don't know, fly up here!" Rainbow Dash suggested, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

"Come on, Fluttershy, you can do it! Flap those wings!" Pinkie cheered supportively.

"Uh... okay..." Fluttershy did as told and began flapping her wings. She lifted herself off the ground and managed to reach the same elevation as the rest of the group. Unfortunately, that was when the dragon snored once again. The low, booming growl echoed through the air.

The second Fluttershy heard it, it took only a second for the fear to spread across her face. She was so scared that her wings locked up and she began to plummet back to the ground. Thankfully, she landed safely in a bush, remaining unharmed. Fluttershy climbed out of the bush and attempted to open her wings again, but it didn't seem like they were budging.

"Ugh, we don't have time for this!" Twilight groaned. Hearing this, Applejack snagged the map from Twilight's bag. "What are you doing?"

"I'll need this if I'm gonna take her 'round the mountain another way." The farm pony explained while she searched the map for an alternate route.

"Around the mountain? That's gonna take them forever!" Rainbow also let out an annoyed groan. Applejack slid back down the slope to join Fluttershy. Once she reached the bottom, she looked back up at Twilight.

"Don't worry, Twi. We'll be there lickety-split." Applejack reassured her as she led Fluttershy down a different path.

"Guess we're waiting on them, then." Macoy sighed with hesitation. The group made themselves comfortable while they waited for Fluttershy and Applejack to catch up. In the meantime, Pinkie had convinced Rarity to play tic-tac-toe with her. JR spectated their game for what little entertainment it provided.

Some time passed, and the pink pony had the fashionista beat 9-0. Rarity still had yet to accept defeat as they began another round. The golden stallion let out a yawn as the spectating started to grow boring.

'Man, if those two don't hurry up, I might just die of boredom. I kinda wish something exciting would happen, like-'

JR's thought was cut off when he heard a familiar sound. He caught a glimpse of flames in the corner of his eyes, he turned to see a wall of fire there, with Naeus behind them before being gone in a flash.

The skeleton reappeared a few meters in front of him as walls of red colored rocks trapped the group excluding JR, with the ground surrounding everyone being transformed into the same red colored rocks. The next second after the occurrence, fires begin appearing in random spots of red rocks, as skeletons with black or white colored bones rise up from the rocks.

'-ask and ye shall receive.'

The girls all gasped at the sight as Mico uses his void power to make the red-colored walls blocking him and the group disappear in purple ashes, further shocking the girls but focuses on the main subject. "JR, need some-"

"Help? Sure thing with Macoy. And stay back girls, protect them Lloyd." He cut Mico off as he approached the horde of skeletons. Three skeletons; 2 white and 1 black armed with bow, sword and spear respectively dashes towards JR(Well except for the bow-wielding one).

(Starts on the very beginning, pretty obvious)
"Mico, Macoy, LET'S DO THIS!!" JR shouted as Mico positioned himself in the middle, JR in right and Macoy on the left. They pulled out their respective weapons while Lloyd in the background protecting the girls pulled out his bamboo bo staff.

Mico then addressed the skeletons and Naeus. "Hey, you guys don't mind helping me test out my OG weapons, right?" The skeletons all pointed their weapons in response.

With a smirk, Mico hurled his stone sword into the sword-wielding skeleton, shattering it's rib cage by the middle, he then enveloped his sword with cyan aura while it goes back to him. Just as he got a hold of his sword, the skeleton holding a bow released the string, homing in to Mico. Thanks to his extremely fast reaction speed, he then leaped upward and landed to the approaching arrow as he leaped again, only going to the skeleton as he striked it with his horn, demembering it completely. The spear wielding one hurled it's spear to him, but was interrupted as a spiked whip from Macoy striked the spear, destroying it and going for the skeleton who threw it.

Naeus then fired 2 horizontal flaming crescent shaped blade; one is higher while the other one is on the bottom towards Mico, but he dodged it by jumping and positioning himself between the 2 flaming blades. He then landed as 3 skeletons fired their bow at him, but cuts the arrows in halves with his stone sword, he then proceeds to shoot a bunch of fire from his horn like a flamethrower, turning the 3 skeletons into char.

JR then slammed his axe to the nearest black skeleton, shattering its skull, another black skeleton dashes to him, but got its rib cage sliced by his axe. 2 skeletons then charged each on his side, he turned to the left skeleton and collide his axe with its sword, he then kicked the one in his right, causing it to get knockbacked and it's body parts to fall off. JR turned to the left one as he retreated his axe, enveloped it in icy aura and slam it to the skeleton, freezing it.

Macoy then dodged a flaming arrow fired at him by a white skeleton, he then dodged it's second shot, but this time he landed on it and jumped again while swinging his whip to the skeleton, dismembering it. A black skeleton holding a spear charged at Macoy, but launched himself while his hind legs hit it in it's body, dismembering it as well. A 4 meters tall black skeleton charged at him while wielding a war hammer, the skeleton slammed it down where Macoy stood, but dodged it in the blink of an eye as he striked it a few times with his spiked whip, before delivering the last one, this one hitting it on the top of its skull, dismembering it.

Back to Mico, he was clearing a small horde of skeletons;black and white alike, without even using his abilities. Suddenly, a another 4 meters tall skeleton wielding a spear leaped and tries to obliterate him, but Mico leaped as well as he sliced its bones with his sword. He landed as the remains of the big skeleton falls around him, with him reaching out for it's spear.

(1:03)

The remaining skeletons(atleast around 50) surrounds him and pounces, attempting to overwhelm him. But his time perspective around him has gotten into stand still. Mico then proceeds to throw the large spear on one of the skeletons, he then hurled his 2 daggers on 2 random skeletons. When he realized that he run out of throwing weapons, he instead sliced his way until he made sure that the skeletons are going to be dismembered.

When the time goes back to normal, the girls were shocked that the skeletons charging towards Mico, had their bones and body parts spreading everywhere, until Naeus was the only one left, much to his dismay as he teleported away.

(music ends in 1:28)

The instrumental music faded away as the fires everywhere and the strange red-colored rocks did the same, freeing the girls. 'Still works like my old ones.'

"That was AWESOME!!! You've gotta show us what else you could do with those weapons!" With the dust having settled, Rainbow Dash flew over to Mico, getting an up-close look at his swords, then to Macoy's spiked whip, then to Lloyd's bamboo bo staff and finally, to JR's axe.

"Heh, maybe some other time. Don't wanna spoil the surprise when I got my old weapons back." Mico replied, and the rainbow speedster pouted. Ignoring her pout, Mico then enveloped his stone sword in a burst of flames, causing it to disappear as he went back to where he was sitting to continue watching Pinkie and Rarity's ongoing battle of tic-tac-toe.

'Now that freezed my boredom, but that won't last for long.' Mico thought.



And it's true, his boredom has broken out of its icy prison.

"WOOHOO! I win again!" Pinkie exclaimed.

"Ugh, that's 35 games in a row. Best of 71?" Rarity challenged.

Mico was just about at his limit. If this went on any longer, he'd just charge up the mountain and kick it twice as high as the skies. Twilight and Rainbow seemed to be growing impatient as well. Twilight was pacing back and forth, while Rainbow did the same, only by flying instead of trotting.

Their attention was drawn to the sound of hoofsteps approaching and someone grunting in effort. They all turned to see Applejack approaching from the alternate route while carrying Fluttershy by her tail. The shy pegasus herself seemed to be frozen stiff from fear.

"We...made...it..." Applejack managed to wheeze out before flopping on the ground, panting heavily.

"Told you it was gonna take them forever." Rainbow muttered to Twilight.

After letting Applejack catch her breath, the group finally continued forward up the path. They continued on for a bit longer before running into a small gap in the path. Both Mico and Rainbow Dash leapt over it first, not even a second of hesitation from either of them. Everyone else promptly followed their lead, hopping over the gap with little effort.

Everyone except for Fluttershy, that is.

"Your turn, Fluttershy." Twilight called out to her.

"But it's so... wide." Fluttershy took a few steps back from the gap.

"Oh, come on, it's like only 2 feet Fluttershy!" JR complained.

"Come on Fluttershy, we should be much farther along by now!" Twilight insisted.

"You could just leap on over." AJ added. Fluttershy took a glance at the gap, looking down at the far drop below.

"...I-" Fluttershy was cut off by another roar from the dragon's snoring. "...I don't know."



"There's nothing to be afraid of! It's just a hop, skip, and a jump!" Pinkie Pie cut in, then proceeded to leap back across the gap. "See?"

It was at that moment that Mico and his siblings heard music beginning to play.

'Oh heavens no-', He thought before Pinkie starts singing.

"It's not very far, just move your little rump~! You can make it if you try with a hop, skip, and a jump~!" Pinkie began to sing to the music as she leapt back and forth over the gap, and Mico resisted the urge to rip his ears off in exaggeration.

"We don't have time for this." Twilight said, though made no effort to stop it.

"A hop, skip, and a jump~! Just move your little rump~! A hop, skip, and a jump! A hop, skip, and a jump! A hop, skip, and a jump! A hop, skip, and a jump! A hop, skip, and a JUMP!" Pinkie mercifully finished the song by landing on the side opposite of Fluttershy. The shy pegasus took another nervous look at the gap before readying herself to mimic what Pinkie did. "Okay... here I go."

"A hop..." She hopped.

"A skip..." She skipped.

"Just don't look down!" Twilight encouraged her, though it would prove to have backfired in a second.

Fluttershy heard Twilight's words just as she reached the jump portion of the mantra. Fluttershy looked down mid-leap, and terror entered her eyes in less than a second. She let out a quiet yelp as she fell forward...

Her front hooves landed on the other side safely, while her hind legs remained on the side they had come from. The gap was so small, that it was almost impossible to fall through without trying. Like Nero said, the gap wasn't even 2 feet, and could have been stepped over if you stretched your hooves out far enough.

Still, Fluttershy found herself wedged between the gap. Rainbow groaned as she flew behind Fluttershy and gave her a little push, putting her safely on the other side.

"I guess I forgot to jump." Fluttershy said sheepishly, flashing an embarrassed smile.



"Let's keep it down. According to my map, we're entering an avalanche zone. The smallest peep could cause a huge rockslide." Twilight whispered.

They were well past the gap now, and had continued further on up the mountain. Just as Twilight said, Mico could tell that the whole area was very unstable. He made sure to keep his footsteps light in order to avoid making any noise(This is because a light kick he delivers to his enemies could already break platinum).

"An ava-... ava-!"

"SHH!" Fluttershy's nervous stammering was cut off when Twilight shushed her. The group resumed their pace, though with much more caution. Everyone treaded lightly, not daring to make a peep. The only sound that could be heard was the light clopping of hooves.

Everything was completely silent.

...

...

...

'...Don't tell me Memphis Tennessee is next to try to rekt me.'

Mico caught Rainbow Dash in the corner of his eye, her wing having brushed past the branch of a nearby tree. Though her wing had barely touched it, it had been enough to knock a single leaf from the branch. Normally, this wouldn't have concerned Mico. There was, however, one problem.

The leaf was about to fall on Fluttershy.

Considering how on edge she had been this entire time, even the lightest touch from that leaf would most likely freak her out. Thinking quickly, he uses his magic to telepathically say something to his siblings.

'GUYS! GUYS! CRAPCRAPCRAPCRAPCRAP! LOOK WHERE I AM LOOKING!'

Mico took action almost immediately, dashing forward with speed not even Rainbow Dash would be capable of. He managed to grab the leaf with his teeth just an inch away from landing on Fluttershy. The pegasus herself didn't seem to have noticed, continuing on as if nothing happened.

"Oh, thank God." He gave a relieved sigh, only realizing his mistake a second too late as the girls all turned to him with wide eyes. Everyone remained frozen in place, waiting to see if Mico's voice had been loud enough to trigger an avalanche. His siblings looking at them with horror.

A second passed.

Then another.

Then another.

...

...

...

Nothing but dead silence.

Twilight sent a hard glare his way, making a zipper motion over her mouth with her hoof as if to say 'Keep your mouth zipped shut.'

She didn't have to tell Bluey twice.

The group carried on, not making a single peep. Eventually, they made it through the avalanche zone with no further incidents. Once they made it, Twilight gave the all clear, and everyone let out a sigh of relief.

"What was that about!? You almost triggered an avalanche!" Rainbow Dash flew up in Mico's face.

"Look,  it was an accident, ok? A leaf was about to fall on Fluttershy, and I  was worried it would freak her out, so I stopped it. Can you blame me for feeling a little relieved?" Mico explained himself.

"Oh, I-I'm sorry, I didn't notice it." Fluttershy apologized from the side.

"Don't worry about it, it's not your fault. Look, let's just be glad we got through that safely, ok?"

"He's right. We don't have time to stand around and argue about it." Twilight cut in. "According to the map, we should be at the final stretch. We'll  have time for chit-chat after we've convinced the dragon to leave."

Everyone gave a round of determined nods in agreement. They all followed Twilight as she pressed on, ready to finish their quest.

'Looks like it's finally time to meet another dragon after waiting for generations... well, not counting Spike, anyway.' Mico thought, the same for his 3 brothers.



"We're here." Twilight stated as she gazed upon the massive opening to the dragon's cave. Smoke poured out of the entrance, and the low rumble of the Dragon's breathing could be heard even from outside the cave. If Mico had to describe the size of the entrance, he would say it was about as large as the Grave Digger had been, if not larger.

"Rainbow Dash, you'll use your wings to clear the smoke. Rarity and Pinkie Pie,  you'll create a diversion to distract the dragon if things get a little  hairy in there. Mico, you'll keep the dragon at bay in case he decides to attack because you're the strongest here. Applejack, you're ready with the apples to provide assistance to Mico if he needs it. JR, you're going for Mico's assistance. Macoy, Lloyd, provide support to Rarity and Pinkie respectively." Twilight listed off everyone's tasks, and they all prepared to carry out their part of the plan.

"Hopefully, it shouldn't come to that, because Fluttershy will do what she needs to do to wake him up. Between the two of us, we should be  able to get him to understand why he needs to go. Is everypony ready?"  Everyone, save Fluttershy, gave their own affirmation in response.  "Okay, then. We're going in!"

Twilight did as she said she would  and marched straight into the dragon's cave. She didn't seem to notice that Fluttershy hadn't followed her. Instead, the shy pegasus had her head buried in the dirt in a feeble attempt to hide. A few seconds later, Twilight came back out, a deadpan expression on her face.

"Come on!" She bit down on Fluttershy's wings and gave them a tug,  pulling her out of the dirt. "We have to do this!" She gave Fluttershy a  push, but the shy pegasus did not budge. "Now!"

As Twilight continued to push, Rainbow Dash joined in to help, who was followed by Rarity. After her, AJ joined in, and Mico figured he might as well pitch in too. He wished he had waited a second longer before helping when Pinkie smacked into him from behind, also aiding in the group push.  "Every second longer that dragon sleeps is another acre of Equestria that is covered in smoke!" Twilight grunted with effort between her words. Surprisingly, even with Mico's strength to destroy trees, Fluttershy managed to keep herself dug firmly into the dirt.

"I...I... I can't go in the cave." Fluttershy finally answered. Everyone groaned as they stopped trying to push her.

"Oh great. She's scared of caves now, too." Rainbow complained.

"I'm not scared of caves. I'm scared of dr..."

"What's that, sugar cube?" Applejack asked, unable to make out what she said.

"I'm scared of drag..."

"What?" Twilight also asked, still not able to hear her.

"I'm scared of dragons!" Fluttershy admitted.

The dragon snored once more, causing a huge puff of smoke to emerge  from the cave. It clouded around the group of ponies, causing them all to start coughing, well except for Mico and siblings. After the smoke had cleared, Mico found Fluttershy huddling behind him once again.

"But Fluttershy, you have such a wonderful talent dealing with all kinds of animals!" Twilight said, somehow surprised by this new revelation.

"Yes, because they're not dragons." Fluttershy emphasized, still hiding behind the unicorn.

"Oh, come on! We've seen you walk right up to a horrible manticore like it was nothing!" The rainbow pegasus reminded her.

"Yes, because he wasn't a dragon." She repeated.

"Spike is a dragon, and you're not scared of him." Pinkie added.

"Yes,  because he's not a huge, gigantic, terrifying, enormous,  teeth-gnashing, shark-scale-having, horn-wearing, smoke-snoring,  could-eat-a-pony-in-one-bite, totally all-grown-up dragon." The dragon snored once more after Fluttershy's rant, which provoked her to whimper in fear.

"But if you're so afraid of dragons, why didn't you say something before we came all the way up here!?" Twilight questioned.

"Because I was afraid to."

"Oh, for God's sake, is there anything she's not afraid of!?" JR joined.

"All of us are scared of that dragon-"

"I'm not." Both Mico, his siblings and Rainbow Dash objected simultaneously, cutting Applejack off.

"... Almost all of us are scared of that dragon, but we've got a job t' do. So get in there with Twilight an' show 'er what yer made of." After AJ finished, all eyes were on Fluttershy, waiting for her answer.

"I...I..."

Everyone leaned in.

"...I  just...can't." Fluttershy hung her head low, completely downtrodden. She  moved behind a large rock that was portruding out of the ground to hide  herself. Whether it was to hide from the dragon or her shame.

"Poor Fluttershy. I actually feel kinda bad for her." JR said.

Everyone else present felt the same way as him, but they couldn't dwell on it for too long. They still had a job to do, and their target was right in front of them. All that was left was to get the dragon out of the cave.  Considering Fluttershy was no longer taking part, Twilight had to enter the cave alone.

"I'm going in. He... probably just doesn't realize what he's doing... right?" Twilight, who was now a few feet into the cave, looked back at her friends for encouragement. All of them, save for Mico and his siblings were hiding around the corner of the cave's entrance.

"O-Oh, yeah, of course." Rainbow scratched the back of her head.

"S-Sure, if you say so." Applejack gave a forced smile. JR said the same thing she said.

"O-Of course, heh heh..." Rarity chuckled nervously. Macoy repeated it.

"Easy-peasy!" Pinkie seemed to be the most genuine of them. Lloyd also repeated.

While Twilight was clearly skeptical of their encouragement, she trudged forward through the cave anyway. A couple minutes passed as they  waited for Twilight before a loud roar could be heard within the cave. Twilight came trotting out while coughing and hacking through a cloud of smoke.

"No hit?" Mico said, his eyes looking like peeping in a small hole while approaching his head to Twilight.

"So much for persuading him." Rainbow coughed as some of the smoke got in her lungs.

"So, anyone else got any ideas, or can I finally do my thing?" Mico looked between each of the girls, waiting for an answer as he pushed his left hoof to his right hoof like cracking knuckles, he also did the same to his left hoof with right one.

"Obviously,  this situation just calls for a little... pony charm." Rarity stepped up and strutted into the cave, carrying the confidence of a lady.  Judging by the look on her face, she had no doubt she would succeed.

She came sprinting out of the cave about a minute later.

"So much for that 'pony charm'." Macoy chuckled as Rarity leaned on a rock, pouting.

"I was this close to getting that diamond!" The fashionista complained.

"You mean, 'Getting rid of that dragon'?" Twilight sent a look Rarity's way.

"Oh, yeah, sure." She corrected herself. Their attention was drawn away by the sound of a party noise maker. Lloyd turned to see-

Pinkie Pie was wearing the weirdest getup Lloyd had ever seen in his entire life. Her torso was hidden inside a wrapped present, bow and all,  while she wore swimming flippers on each of her hooves. A few balloons floated behind her, their strings tied to her tail. She wore balloon animals on her head and a pair of cartoonishly large fashionable glasses over her eyes. The final addition was the party noise maker she held in her mouth.

"Darling, you look ridiculous!" Rarity looked appalled by the insult to fashion that Pinkie was wearing.

"Exactly!  Sharing a laugh is a surefire way to get someone on your side!" The  pink pony waddled into the cave with a bright smile on her face.

From outside, they heard Pinkie greet the dragon with a "Hi!". This was immediately followed by the sound of crashing and balloons popping. Pinkie limped out not two seconds later, her balloons having been popped  and deflated, while her present-torso thing had been ruffled and beat up. "Apparently he doesn't like laughing... or sharing."

At this point, Rainbow Dash had reached her limit and was ready to take matters into her own hooves. "All right, that's it! We've tried persuasion, charm, and... whatever it is Pinkie Pie does. It's time to stop wasting time! I'm going in! C'mon, Mico, let's kick this dragon's  butt!" The rainbow pegasus zoomed into the cave gesturing for the blue unicorn to follow.

"I thought you'd never ask." he followed the rainbow speedster into the cave, ignoring Twilight's protests. Thanks to his super speed, Mico was able to keep up with RD, if not faster and they quickly  found themselves in front of the dragon. The dragon itself was huge.  It looked to be nearly the size of Grave Digger, if not bigger. Mico could tell it wasn't as powerful as the dragons in his world, but it could probably challenge him a bit.

Rainbow flew up to its face, rearing her hind legs. Mico leapt up next to her, while aiming his teal-colored horn.

"GET OUT!!!" They both shouted in unison before delivering a hard buck to the dragon's snout. Mico's strike causes a small blue shockwave upon impact while landing in the ground, while Rainbow continued to fly in place. The dragon recoiled from the strike, clutching its snout in pain before sending a vicious glare at them, snarling. Though Mico remained unphased, Rainbow seemed to realize she bit off more than she could chew. "Heh, uh, sorry?" She chuckled nervously.

The dragon let out a mighty roar, its breath creating a large gust of wind. Mico managed to keep his hooves planted firmly in the ground as  the tail of his coat blew around wildly. Rainbow, unfortunately, was unable to do so, and the roar sent her flying out of the cave, crashing into the other girls.

"Rainbow!" he called out to her. He turned back to the dragon, an annoyance present on his face. "Hey you big, red, monster freak! You wanna pick on someone, why don't you try me on for size?" In response, the dragon let out another roar,  smoke pouring out of its mouth. Mico coughed as he wafted it away.  "Jeez, and I thought Anancites smells bad. your breath stinks! go consume some mint!"

This time, the dragon inhaled, taking in a large gulp of air before  letting out a roar even more powerful than the previous two. This one had been strong enough to send Mico flying out of the cave as well, sending him crashing into the rock that Fluttershy had been hiding behind, though the impact hadn't been enough to hurt him. The rock crumbled as Mico stood back up, and the dragon finally emerged from its cave, angered by the annoying intruders. Mico then had a glowing blue eyes as he shouted, "A̶̧̜̪̲̻̤̬̎l̸̜̺̭̰͇͋́̆̌̔r̸͍͇̽̃̐̑̑̈́͂͝i̴̟͔͎̠̅g̶͔͇͖̬͎͕̻͈͓͍͑̐̊̌̏̽͐̚̚͠h̵̨̬͇͆̓̀t̷̢͙͈̠̻̐̂́͐͒̔̈̍͘͘͜ ̸̩̌ş̷̡̹̦̇̐͊̒̇̚m̸̨͔̗̳̭͇̞̼̞̯̎̈́̉̏̾̚ö̴͖͕̲́͂̌́̾̓̕k̸͉͍̯̙͍̱̜̒̈́̓͐̔̚̕e̵̡̳̤̦̓̀͌̎͜ỳ̵̛̲̼͇̩̟͒̃̑̏̋,̵̧̟͎̣͓̙̙̝̯͒̓̓̌͌͘͘͠͝ͅ ̴͉̟̠̭̪͆͂̌̊̾̈́̏̓͊͘̚ȳ̵̠͙͕͉̤̮̜̖̪͂̈́̆̀̽̇̉͒͝ơ̸̡̡̝̖̬̼͊̉̕͜͝u̸̗͚͚̙̣͎͇͎̰̞͊͊̇͊ͅ ̴̞̖̤̬̫̌a̴̛͈̫̮̰̞͗̿̿͗̏͊̃̆s̵̨̛͉͓̯̱̳̳͉̗͝ͅk̴̲̮̮̜̞̣̣̘̗̝̍͘͘e̵͕͚͓͉̣̬̼͊̀̎͘d̴̗͉̓͂̑͛̆͌ ̶̧̡̘̹̠͚̣̃̎̔f̷̜̼̹̹̪͊ṍ̴̲̮̝̞̈̌̒̆̓̕ŗ̶̛̰̰̻̼̀͆͐̄̂͗̚͜ ̴̟̥̬̠̍̉̿̆̒̓͑͌̚i̴͇̦͒t̷͓̋!̸̹̦̜͖̱͔̒̈́̂̾͐̅̈̓̇͜͠ ̴͉̟̱̇͗̉Y̶̹͍͙̩̲͔̖̟͓̟͆̄̆̕͠ͅo̵̩͕͕̯͉͐̎̈̑͋͒̈́͐̆̋ų̸̹̟͎̣͔̼̇͋̏ ̵̻͉̱̝͚̝̻̪̓̑͌ͅͅw̸̨̧̛̪̣̙̗̣̯͛́̐̓̅́̾ͅͅà̵̧̮̫̆͒n̴̨̳̿̈́̈́̐̈́͆̇t̵̤̙̠̗̿̅̎́͊̉͠͠ ̴̠̠͇͌́̐̎̅̅͘ä̶͎͈́͊́͂̄̆̃̚ ̸̰̪̦̯͓̘͚̗̪͕̅͝f̴͓̘̣̫̱͍̱̭͔̞̱̈́̌̂͝͠ȋ̸̧̧̢̬̼̘͗g̸̺̅̒h̵̡̥͍̦̔͂̏t̴͎̞̭͎̠̩̆́͒̂?̵̨̳̳͉̱̂̉̿̂̽̓͒̃̓̕̚ ̶͍͓͍̩̼̫̱̫̝͋̑̓͒́́͐̕͘̕͝I̷̗͒'̵̬̐͆͌̒̀͝l̶̻̬̬̹̖̻̦̭̉̈̅̃̈́̇̌͌̆l̸̡̜̙̤̯̯̦̈̈́̿͒̐́̒̑́ͅ ̷̼̻͖͍̜̮͓͐͐̿̓͐̔̃̚͠͠g̵̹͒͊͑́͛͑͘i̸̧̨̛̛̻̙̫̝̭̜̹͉͓͆͂̒̋͛͒̒̂̚v̷̤̝̼̻̠̊͐̌̃͆͆̓͠ę̶̡̳͚̣̼̱̀̆͜ ̴̧̛̤͖̬̹̬͕͖̗̫͒̄́̀̈̿͑y̵̨̠͚͕͚͙̳̣̗̅ͅọ̷͙͚̠̼̩̇̉̓̏͗͗̎͊̈́͝ų̵̹͔͚̻̙̔̍́̚ ̸̼͕̪̳͉̦̫̳̥͖͙͠a̴̧͓̦͇̠͈̋̈́̿̄͜͝ ̴͖̉͑̚̕f̸̢̞͓̹̦̱̯̜͇͂͒̔́̈́͛͌̉͘͘͜͝ḯ̷̢̜̤̮̦͑͑͆͂̊̈̽͠-̷͉̟͙̀̓͛̚!̷̛̛̛͉͉͖͍͑̓̄͋͛̓"

"How dare you..." A familiar voice spoke up from behind him.

'...Or not.' he continued in thought.

Mico turned his head to see that Fluttershy had come out of hiding and was now glaring up at the dragon. "HOW DARE YOU!?" Fluttershy yelled.

His eyes widened as he watched Fluttershy fly up to the dragon and land on its snout, glaring daggers into its eyes. Everyone present watched in complete shock as Fluttershy began to chastise the dragon. Even the dragon himself looked surprised. "Listen here, mister! Just because you're big doesn't mean you get to be a bully! You may have huge teeth and sharp scales and snore smoke and breathe fire, but you do not, I repeat, you do NOT! HURT! MY! FRIENDS! You got that?"

Everything was silent(Except for Macoy, JR, and Lloyd because the already predicted it) for a few seconds before the dragon started whimpering. "...But that rainbow one and the one in blue kicked me, and then the blue one started making fun of me and calling me names." The dragon pointed to Rainbow Dash and Nero respectively.

"You deserved that cuz-"

"MICO!" Fluttershy interrupted as she harshly glared at him, but Mico's expression was bored. After she finished scowling at him, Fluttershy turned back to the dragon. "And I am very sorry about that, but you're bigger than they are, and you should know better. You should also know better than to take a nap where your snoring can become a health hazard to other creatures."

"...But I-"

"Don't you 'but I' me, mister. Now what do you have to say for yourself?" Fluttershy asked, and the dragon remained silent. "I said, what do you have to say for yourself?" She repeated, this time more firmly.

The dragon winced before crying his eyes out, giant tears streaming down his face and splashing onto the ground. Some of them got on Mico, soaking him.

'Isn't that just wonderful.'

"There, there. No need to cry." Fluttershy stroked the dragon's snout, comforting it. "You're not a bad dragon, you just made a bad decision. Now go pack your things. you just need to find a new place to sleep, that's all." As Fluttershy flew back down to the ground, the rest of the group cheered for her.

"You did it! I knew you could do it!" Twilight congratulated her. Mico couldn't help but smile as the other girls continued to praise the shy pegasus. It seemed things were wrapping up with another happy ending. His siblings ran up besides him and the girls.

...At least it did, until he found Mephiles in the corner of his eyes.

Mico levitated his stone sword from his saddlebag and prepared to use electrokinesis, his horn filled with blue electricity. The others noticed this and gave him worried looks. "Mico what is it?" Twilight asked.

"Uhh-"

just before he can explain, a black cloud of smoke rammed into him, he was then enveloped by it and lifted upward. The smoke formed itself and is revealed to be Mephiles while holding him in the middle part of his body.

"MICO!!" Lloyd shouted as he pulled out and threw his bamboo bo staff with all his might, but just when it hits Mephiles, it bounced off, going for Twilight. Good thing he was fast enough to catch it in blue aura.

"I've been waiting for this. You're not from Equestria. We are from Earth." He spoke to Mico. "It means I get a piece of you." Just as Mephiles said the last words, Mico then punches him in his face, making him groan. He repeated it a few times before they landed to the ground while they are scattered. The impact they cause creating a crater as big as 10 meters.

After Mico taking in his surroundings, he found himself in a clearing in the middle of a forest. Judging by the mountain's location and how far he and the dark figure flew. He assumed it was White Tail Woods. After a few seconds, Mephiles came out of the smoke in front of Mico.

Mephiles then summoned a shadowy orb in his hands. "That was for displacing us here in this pathetic world. Now show me how much you changed in this coloring book horses world." He said as he dashes forward to Mico and tried to punch him, but Mico blocked it thanks to the golden legring he is wearing. Mephiles punches again, this time it was powered by his dark manipulation, Mephiles' 2nd fist not only knocked Mico back, but also causes him to get thrown on random tree. Thankfully he blocked it again. "Can't fight without your big guns? Coward." Mico and Mephiles traded kicks and blows a few times before the latter grabbed the former and delivers a darkness-empowered punch, knocking Mico back a few feet.

Mico then said, "I did not seek that fight with Black Entity or whoever is also there."

"I don't care."

The 2 traded blows again, with Mephiles sometimes throwing dark-based attacks and Mico using magic, elemental and even using the songs. "You insult me holding back like this." Mephiles laughed as he was able to hit Mico with dark-based powers without giving him a chance. Mico then delivers a hard blow to Mephiles' stomach with his unicorn horn, but Mephiles sent a wave of darkness that causes the unicorn to painfully shout.

Mephiles then teleported a few feet away and sends few dark waves to Mico, but protected himself thanks to Protesphere, Mico then fought back by sending blue lightning bolts towards him, but dodges it effortlessly. Mephiles sends a dark ball that's very fast it caught Mico off guard, resulting him in getting hit. "How were you ever called the 'God-humiliator'."

Mephiles charges a powerful blast that could severely injure even a god, preparing to end the fight. He released it, heading to Mico's direction, thanks to Mico's focus and reaction speed, he rolled out of the way in time. The blast instead destroyed a few trees behind Mico's previous position. Mico then kicked Mephiles several times before Mephiles dodges the 8th kick. "You're damn hopeless." Mephiles said as he throw several dark-balls, all are tanked by Mico. 

"Nightmare Moon just lost to Macoy, all because he has both type of magic, and JR beat that bear without getting hit." Mephiles said as they traded blows, kicks and blasts once again. Mico then sends a few punches and kicks to Mephiles before the former uses his legring as shield to ram it in Mephelis, the 2 were trying to push each other. Mico was able to knock him on the tree behind.

"You know my past?" Mico questioned.

"The 'Worst Thing Alive'? Yeah." Mephiles said as he pushed Mico, successfully making him tumbling the ground a few feet before Mico got back to his hooves.

"Then you know what I'm capable of."

"Show me." Mephiles said as Mico lit up his horn with cyan aura while his stone sword was summoned besides him while Mephiles charges a dark laser again. Mico's sword being enveloped by lightning aura.

Mephiles then fired a massive beam towards him, and Mico deflected it. With no other choice, the former instead charged, but got his body slashed, causing Mephiles to back away a few feet.

"Now we got a fight." He said as he fired a laser, but Mico fired a laser made of blue energy to counter it. Their lasers dissipated as Mephiles released a wave of darkness causing Mico to get knocked back at least 7 meters.

"Was hoping to see your Excalibur and the other one... guess they don't come when you call." Mephiles said as he released a wave of darkness again, knocking Mico to a random tree again. He got back up as he enveloped himself in blue aura and releasing a burst of energy. "What's THIS? I didn't seen you do this." Mephiles said as he was knocked back a few feet from the blast.

Mico then dashes as he delivers a bunch of kicks and punches, creating small shockwaves in their position, Mephiles then teleported away and shoots another dark laser, Mico also did, only a blue one. Both of their laser were evenly matched, until Mico's laser instantly overpowers the dark laser, causing Mephiles to get knocked back.

"That's all? Back on Earth you don't go full power." Mephiles laughed as he punches Mico, knocking him to a random tree again. Mico got back up like it was nothing as he dashes and slashes Mephiles. However, it only make him grunt in pain for each hit until he dodges the 6th slash and fired a dark ball. Mico then rolled out of the way just in time.

Mico then teleported behind Mephiles, who turned around a little bit too late as the former swings his sword upward, flinging Mephiles into a tree. He got back up as he fired a wave of darkness to Mico's direction. But instead of dodging it, he countered it with a wave of flames. He stepped back a bit while Mephiles said, "Let me see the monster inside." He dodged Mico's hurled sword as Mico generated a spectral blue shield in his left legring and blocked the incoming attack. Mephiles punchs his shield twice before punched it in different angle. With now an opening, Mephiles sends a wave of darkness to him, knocking him back a few feet. 

They then traded blows, kicks and blast several times before Mico punches Mephiles upward. Mico collided his sword while Mephiles uses his arm. Unfortunately, the latter hits Mico, hurling him so far that his only option was to make a large tree grow where he was going to land.

Mico then crashed into one of the branch as he dodges a dark beam from Mephiles. The former looked up to see Mephiles charging at him. Mico then dodged a purple spectral hammer about to hit him, destroying the uppermost part of the tree. "Do better!" Mephiles said as Mico swinged his stone sword and hits Mephiles in his body while Mico hurled both of them to the ground while spinning and hits a random tree. They eventually crashes into the ground from a few meters high, when the dust clears, Mephiles had pinned Mico down to the ground by his head. He then kick Mephiles in his face, causing him to grunt and let go of his head. 

"Sorry about your new tallest tree, Mico." Mephiles laughed as he looked to the 60 meters tall tree, which was cut in half thanks to Mephiles' beam. He was so distracted that he failed to realized that Mico got back up to his hooves as he picked up a large branch of tree and swing it to Mephiles, causing him to fall face first in the ground. He then recovered from it as he pick himself up.

"If you're not fighting dirty, you're not fighting. Right?" Mephiles said.

"I do not."

They then resumed their fight, exchanging non-physical attacks. With Mephiles throwing insults occasionally, and Mico sometimes using nearby fallen trees and branches to deal heavy damage to Mephiles. But confirmed to be futile thanks to him regenerating repeatedly. Unfortunately, when Mico charged without a second thought, Mephiles had him in his neck and slammed him to the ground and throwing him a few meters away as he said, "Was it luck? Did my fellow allies lose to a crappy luck?"

Mico then blocked the incoming laser from Mephiles with his bare hooves, though it pushed him back a little, he then dodged it on left side, avoiding his demise and proceeds to run towards Mephiles with his horn ready to stab...

...And a purple orb of darkness hits him in the back of his head. "Really!" Mephiles laughed as Mico looked in his direction and was met with Mephiles' claws, thankfully he reacted quickly and blocked him with his bare hooves.

"You think you can adapt to this new world, reunite with your family, forget about your nemeses?! It ain't how it works." Mephiles laughed as Mico struggled to push him back, "You cannot get some peace... Forever." He then pushed Mico as he punched him while his fist was charged with darkness, knocking Mico out cold.

"Good riddance."

Mephiles laughed in victory for finally killing Mico...

...At least until a green magic bolt hits him out of nowhere and knocked him to a random tree.

It was the same robed pony Mico talked to before meeting with Twilight and friends, it then pulls out a scythe out of nowhere.

(Scythe)


It then presses the scythe's heel in Mico's chest as the scythe was enveloped in green aura along with supposedly-dead Mico. The aura disappeared as Mico's eyes shot open and breath heavily as he questioned how he was revived. His gaze was meet by the robed pony's green pupils.

"Uh, Justin what are you-"

"We need to give him the boot, now." The robed pony now named Justin said as he enveloped his scythe with blue, icy aura. "Let's go." Mico responded as he summon his sword and enveloped it in blue, electrical aura.

"Look who's joining the uninvited fight." They turned to see Mephiles getting up. "Perhaps 2 against 1 isn't going to end too bad." Justin then dashed with his scythe ready to slice, Mephiles teleported a few feet away, avoiding being chopped as he sends a purple orb, Justin didn't have time to react. Despite rolling to the right, he got hit.

He then crashed to a random tree, Justin looked up to see a wave of darkness going straight to him. Thinking quickly, he rolled in correct timing as Mico slammed his sword on Mephiles, making him grunt in pain, followed by another 3, which are dodged as Mephiles created a shockwave of darkness, sending both Mico and Justin at least 6 meters from Mephiles.

"Should have stopped holding back." He laughed as he didn't have time to react to Mico's stone sword striking him to his head, the sword going back to Mico's possession. He and Justin exchanged blows, blasts and kicks with Mephiles. With him throwing insults to the 2 ponies. Justin then slammed down his scythe as waves of spiky ice sends Mephiles off the ground a few feet. "Afraid of getting your hooves dirty?" He laughed.

Mico and Justin continued fighting Mephiles, "This is the man that humiliated a pantheon 'cause they're going to hurt his family?" He laughed, getting an opening for Mico and Justin, the former then grabbed the dark figure's neck as his left hoof punched him, he then go for the second one, unfortunately Mephiles wouldn't fall for that and choked Mico instead, Justin tried to help him, but was blasted instead. Mephiles then soared through the skies with Mico's neck in his right arm, fortunately, Mico was able to get out of his grip and punches Mephiles 7 times, with each blows creating a small, blue sparks. When Mico goes for the 8th punch, Mephiles caught it and hurled him to the ground. Knowing that Mephiles will have the advantage, he summoned his stone sword as he stabbed it to the ground, cancelling the impact while sliding.

"You're going to pay for putting us in this world!!" Mephiles shouted as Justin's scythe was caught by Mico and uses it to throw it to Mephiles, who generated a purple spectral axe and hurled it at the incoming scythe. The 2 weapons collided, making a blue and purple lightning sparks from the scythe and spectral axe respectively. With the purple axe slowly pushing back the scythe.

"That's because Black Entity cast it first." Mico said as both of them are walking sideways.

"What did you say?" Mephiles said.

"I made it went awry ya know."

"Oh we got an ADOPTIVE Father here!" Mephiles taunted as he and Mico retrieved their weapons and slammed it into one another, causing a mixture of blue and purple shockwave that send them into air.

Mico looked to his back and sees Justin, with his robe no longer on his body, his full body was revealed; Justin had a dark grey coat, green bare hooves, black horn slightly longer than Mico's, his mane and tail looked like wet, but the most shocking feature is that he had bat wings.

(Justin Diamondhero, Right side)

(Left side)

"Okay... I expected you to be an alicorn." Mico said.

"You both talking doesn't matter." Both Mico and Justin heard Mephiles' voice as they faced him, they continued fighting the dark figure, with Mephiles throwing dozens of insults. When Mephiles punched Justin in the face, he threw him on a random tree and punches him, the latter fighting back with a few punches before Mephiles grabbed his head and throw him again, this time on a distance.

Justin's time perspective slowed down as he summoned his scythe with icy blue aura enveloping it and hurled it to the tall tree behind Mephiles, however he was smart, "Clever!"

Mephiles blasted the tree falling down on him and said, "Clever won't beat me!" Justin retrieved his scythe and continued the fight along with Mico. They also used physical and magical attacks while Mephiles uses a dark one. This is until Mico foolishly charged at Mephiles, who dodges it as he summoned a purple spectral hammer while Mico summoned a blue spectral shield from his left legring and shielded himself. Mephiles then slammed down his hammer a few times before breaking it and choked Mico while their respective spectral weapons disintegrate. Justin tried to help him, but was blasted and crashed into a tree by Mephiles.

"I see why you are stronger than Black Entity." Mephiles said, "Even this, lesser version of you." He then glanced at Mico's back and continued to stare him, "But I am not like him. And your family? The 3 has a plan for them."

Mico then held his neck with his hooves and headbutted him, catching Mephiles off-guard. Mico then charged up his right hoof with blue electric aura and punched Mephiles in the face, sending him into the air, probably landing in the middle of Everfree Forest. "Auugghhhhhhhh!!"

"Ahhh! Finally we beat him... now let's meet our 'new' friends." Justin said, approaching Mico.

"Sure thing."



Both Mico and Justin, who was wearing his robe again returned to their friends. After reassuring them that both parties were unharmed (for the most part), they said their goodbyes as the dragon took off, flying away to find a better place to take his nap. The group, save for Twilight, stood outside of the Golden Oaks Library. Rainbow Dash was bouncing a ball covered in a star pattern on top of her head. Apparently, she was trying to break Equestria's ball-bouncing record.

"342, 343, 344, 345..." Rainbow Dash continued to count each bounce.

"Twilight! Ya gotta come see this!" Applejack called the purple unicorn's name. Hearing it, Twilight stepped out onto the library's balcony to see what the commotion was about. "She's just five away from a new pony record!"

"...347, 348-"

"RRAARRR!!!"

"DRAGON!" Rainbow's counting was cut off by a loud roar, and she quickly played dead on the floor. Everyone laughed at her reaction, even Justin got a chuckle out of it. "W-Why are you laughing!? That awful dragon is back!"

Rainbow's fearful expression faded once she saw that it was Pinkie who had been responsible for the roaring, the pink pony continuing to do so again. Instead, her fear was replaced with aggravation. "Pinkie Pie, you scared me!"

"Oh, did she now?" Lloyd chuckled.

"I-I mean, uh... you broke my concentration." She corrected herself.

"It's okay, Rainbow Dash." Fluttershy flew down beside her, a smug grin on her face. "Not everypony can be as brave as me."

A stray leaf flew down from the library's branches, and Rainbow blew it away with a breath. The breeze carried the leaf until it landed on Fluttershy's back, causing the shy pony to yelp and play dead just as Rainbow had done a few seconds ago. Just like before, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

'Well, even if Black Entity or White Entity show up, I get the feeling things will work out fine.' Justin thought as he licked his lips, his scythe's blade on his hoof having a glowing green rune languages around them.

Featured Characters: Zecora



Lloyd woke up and jumped down from the window in Golden Oaks Library to go in a brunch. It was a gorgeous, sunny day, and a perfect day for a stroll through town. The nice weather was a little surprising, considering there had been a huge thunderstorm the day before yesterday. Twilight had informed him that Applejack and Rarity had stayed with them in Golden Oaks Library that night to take shelter from the storm. Apparently, it had been Twilight's first slumber party, and according to her, it was a success. She did mention that a tree had crashed through her window, but no actual damage was done to the library itself.

The sunny weather was certainly a welcome change of pace, especially after the storm. The green unicorn wouldn't have been surprised if he had seen the many residents of Ponyville outside enjoying the sunshine.

That was why Lloyd was very confused when he saw the streets were completely barren.

"What? Did Blacky kidnapped everyone here while me and my brothers are sleeping?"

He wandered the streets for a few minutes, searching for any signs of life, only to turn up nothing. He eventually found himself outside of Sugarcube Corner, his favorite place, still there wasn't a single pony in sight. At least there hadn't been, until he spotted a familiar purple unicorn with a baby dragon on her back. Judging by the looks on their faces, they were also wondering why the town was so empty.

"Yo, Twilight! Over here!" Lloyd waved to them to get their attention. As soon as Twilight saw him, she trotted over, looking quite relieved to have finally found someone.

"Lloyd, Am I glad to see you! Where is everypony? Do you know what happened?" She asked him.

"Afraid not. I know about as much as you do. Did everyone just went to a trip to different places?"

"Lloyd, your joke's really bad." They heard Mico's voice and turned to their left and saw the blue stallion, Mico. Besides him was JR, Macoy and Justin.

"Since when you are standing there?" Lloyd asked as Justin responded, "While you both are asking questions."

"Oh." Lloyd said as Twilight looked baffled to their immediate appearance. "Now let's focus on the main situation. How strange, Ponyville may not be a bustling city, but it's usually a lot more lively than this..." Twilight put a hoof on her chin to think. It was then that a faint noise coming from Sugarcube Corner drew their attention. They turned to see a familiar pink pony peeking her head out of the door.

"Psst! Twilight! Mico! Spike! Other! Come here!" Pinkie Pie whispered as she waved her hoof, gesturing for them to come to her. Twilight, Spike, Mico and his siblings did not move, staring at the party pony in bewilderment. "Come! Here! Hurry! Before she gets you!"

"Before who-?"

"Shhh! She'll hear you!" Pinkie shushed Lloyd before he could finish his question and continued to beckon them into the building. Mico and his siblings shared a glance with Twilight before they followed Pinkie into the store. The inside of the store was pretty dark until Pinkie turned on a flashlight, blinding Twilight and Spike while leaving Mico and his siblings unaffected.

Mico, Justin, JR, Macoy and Lloyd had Blindness Immunity and Enhanced Sight allowing them to see that Pinkie wasn't the only one in the pastry shop. Around them, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash were also in the store. There was one more pony, which is a filly, standing next to Applejack. Mico remembered her from when AJ introduced them to the Apple family on his first day here. Her name was Apple Bloom, if he remembered correctly.

"Who'll get us!? The zombie pony!?" Spike asked fearfully as he clutched onto Twilight for dear life.

"Z-Z-Z-Zombie pony!?" Pinkie shivered nervously at the mention of a zombie pony.

"Spike, there are no zombie ponies! Pinkie, what are you doing here alone in the dark?" Twilight asked, unable to see the group of ponies surrounding them.

"I'm not alone in the dark." Pinkie corrected before pulling the window curtains open a crack, letting some sunlight in, revealing the other ponies in the room. Twilight let out a gasp once she saw them, shocked by their sudden presence.

"Okay, then, what are you all doing here in the dark?"

"I've been wondering that myself. Care to fill us in on why Ponyville became a new ghost town?" Mico added.

"We're hidin' from her!" Applejack pointed to the window before drawing the curtains further, allowing everyone to peek through. Mico, along with his siblings saw a cloaked figure in the middle of the road digging at the dirt. 



(Insert theme song here pls)



The figures's shape was similar to a pony's, and they clearly had hooves, so it most likely not White Entity, as she would be her namesake. The stranger seemed to realize they were being watched and looked directly at the window the group was peeking through. Everyone, save for Mico, his siblings and Twilight, backed away to hide from the stranger's gaze.

Macoy then chuckled as he said, "What's the problem? It's just a pony. Not some kind of villains like Nightmare Moon." He continued chuckling until Lloyd slapped him, "It's not a laughing matter!"

Apple Bloom used Spike as a stepping stool to be at eye level with Twilight before whispering, "Did ya see her, Twilight? Did ya see... Zecora?"

"Apple Bloom! I told you never to say that name!" AJ chastised her little sister.

"Well, I saw her glance this way-"

"Glance eeevily this way!" Pinkie interrupted Twilight, getting up in her face. Twilight promptly pushed the pink pony aside.

"...And then a bunch of you flipped out for no good reason."

"No good reason!? Ya call protectin' yer kin no good reason!?" Applejack hugged Apple Bloom tighter as she spoke, annoying the filly. "Why, as soon as my sister saw Zecora ridin' into town, she started shakin' in her little horseshoes." She then began shaking Apple Bloom back and forth to emphasize her point.

"D-d-i-i-d-d n-n-o-o-t-t!" Apple Bloom's did her best to speak through her sister's constant shaking.

"So I swept her up and brought her here." To emphasize once again, Applejack lifted her sister up onto her back.

"I walked here myself!"

"For safekeeping!"

"Applejack, I'm not a baby! I can take care of myself!" Apple Bloom climbed back off her sister's back as they argued.

"Not from that creepy Zecora." The farm pony argued back.

"Hold on, wait a minute. Can somepony please explain to me what's so creepy about this 'Zecora'?" Lloyd broke up the bout between siblings with a question.

"She's mysterious..." Fluttershy answered first.

"Sinister..." Rainbow added.

"And Spooooky~!" Pinkie dramatically ended their list of adjectives.

"That still doesn't really answer my question..." Lloyd rolled his eyes as he turned back to the window with Twilight and his siblings. The rest of the group peeked out from behind them, forcing the 6 to hunch over uncomfortably. They watched as 'Zecora' continued to dig at the ground for a bit before she took off the hood of her cloak. Mico and his brothers was surprised to see the black and white stripes that covered the mysterious pony. It turns out she wasn't a pony at all, but actually a zebra.

Of course, everyone but Twilight, Mico, Lloyd, JR, Macoy, and Justin gasped in horror in response to Zecora removing her hood.

"Will you cut that out?" Twilight's voice gave away her irritation.

"Just look at those stripes. So garish!" Rarity pointed out.

"She's a zebra." Both Twilight and Justin responded in sync.

"A WHAT!?" Everyone except Mico, JR, Lloyd and Macoy shared the same level of surprise, apparently never having heard of zebras before.

"A zebra, and her stripes aren't a fashion choice, Rarity. They're what she was born with." Twilight explained. Shocked by this revelation, Rarity brought a hoof up to her head as she fainted on the spot.

"Jeez Rarity is racist." Mico murmured to Macoy, causing him to chuckle.

"Ya said she was born with those stripes, but born where? I never seen a pony like that in these parts, except...her!" Applejack shivered at the mere thought of Zecora.

"Well, she's probably not from here, and she's not a pony. My books say that zebras come from a faraway land, but I've never seen her in Ponyville. Where does she live?" During Twilight's explanation, Nero caught Spike in the corner of his eye sneaking into the kitchen, most likely getting something to eat.

"That's just it. She lives in... the Everfree Forest!" The second after Applejack answered, a loud crash echoed throughout Sugarcube Corner, startling the girls.

"SPIKE!" Twilight scolded the baby dragon from outside the kitchen. Apparently, the source of the noise came from a few pots and pans that he had knocked over.

"Uh, sorry." Spike winced as he apologized, a cupcake and a candy cane held in his claws.

Applejack continued despite Spike's interruption. "The Everfree Forest just ain't natural! The plants grow..."

"Animals care for themselves..." Fluttershy added.

"And the clouds move..." Rainbow contributed.

"All on their own!!!" The three of them cried out in unison as Rarity fainted once again.

"Seriously? What do you mean? How is that even unnatural?" Justin scratched his head, trying to wrap his head around the situation.

"Normal!? How can any of that seem normal to you!?" Rainbow Dash flew right up to the hooded figure, inches from his face. "You've seen it for yourself! Applejack and the rest of the Apple family plant crops, Fluttershy takes care of the animals, and I keep the clouds in check around Ponyville. Heck, just the other day you saw everypony prepping for the storm that the pegasi had scheduled. You even helped out a bit! Ponies have been in charge of this stuff for generations! Don't you take care of this stuff back in your world?"

"Nope, I spectated millions of world, and everything doesn't need assistance from the races of respective worlds." Justin said, taking a step back as his hood falls off again, "Here we go again."

"WHAT!?!" Everyone but his siblings shouted, even Twilight.

"I mean, why would it be called nature if it wasn't natural? From my perspective, Equestria is the one that's unnatural, not the Everfree Forest." He continued.

"Wha-!? But...how!? That doesn't make any sense!" Rainbow struggled to comprehend an entire world where clouds moved on their own.

"It just kinda... happens. Look, I know nearly everything, but it's just gonna waste our time. That's just how nature actually is."

"W-Well, bottom line is that by Equestria's standards, the Everfree Forest is just... weird!" Rainbow concluded. Much to Justin's annoyed look.

"And that wicked enchantress Zecora lives there doing her evil...uh... stuff! Why, she's so evil, I even wrote a song about her!" Pinkie chimed in.

"Oh my God not another song-" Mico complained before getting cut off.

"Here we go..." Rainbow groaned.



"SHE'S AN EVIL ENCHANTRESS~! SHE DOES EVIL DANCES~! AND IF YOU LOOK DEEP IN HER EYES, SHE'LL PUT YOU IN TRANCES~!"

A trembling Applejack had latched onto Apple Bloom for dear life. Apple Bloom pushed herself out of her sister's grasp, and the apple farmer continued to shake in fear.

"THEN WHAT WILL SHE DO~? SHE'LL MIX UP AN EVIL BREW, THEN SHE'LL GOBBLE YOU UP IN A BIG TASTY STEW SOOOO WATCH OUT!!!" Pinkie finished the song by posing on top of a table while panting heavily. Everyone stared at her in stunned silence.

"...Wow. Catchy." Twilight was the first to break the silence.

"It's a work in progress." Pinkie smiled confidently, having regained her breath.

"This is all just a lot of gossip and rumors. Now tell me, what exactly have you actually seen Zecora do?" Twilight questioned, still skeptical about their claims.

"Well... once a month, she comes into Ponyville." Rainbow pointed out.

"Then... she lurks by the stores." Rarity added.

"And then... she digs at the ground." Fluttershy finished.

Mico, his siblings and Twilight looked at all of them as Justin murmured something to Lloyd, "Are they that stupid." Lloyd then laughed at his whisper as if it was a comedic joke.

"...Y-you girls aren't serious... right? Is that why y'all think... she's creepy? She just visits Ponyville..., stops by the stores and suddenly... she's considered 'evil'?" Lloyd said between his laughter, in which his laugh became even more unfunny to their perspective.

"I'm with Lloydy, how is any of this bad? How do you know she's not just coming to town to visit?" Twilight supported.

"Yeah! Maybe she's just tryin' to be neighborly!" Even Apple Bloom sided with them.

"And maybe she's not lurking by the stores, maybe she's going to them. Lurk-free. To do some shopping. Right 'Mics'?" Justin added.

"Yep."

"Yeah, everypony likes to shop! Ya know what I think-?"

"Apple Bloom! Hush and let the big ponies talk!" Applejack cut her sister off before she could finish, brushing her aside.

"I am a big pony." Apple Bloom grumbled to herself as she sulked over to the corner of the room.

"What about digging at the ground? You've gotta admit that's weird." Rainbow argued.

"What if she's digging for innocent creatures?" Fluttershy assumed. Meanwhile Pinkie was still singing the song about Zecora she came up with.

"I am sure there's an explanation for everything Zecora does, and if anypony here were actually brave enough to approach her, they would find out the truth!" Twilight said.

They continued arguing about it as Lloyd tuned them out. He went back over to the window to peek at Zecora, who was still digging at the ground. He couldn't help but find this whole thing ridiculous. 'Why would the girls think that thing is evil?' Lloyd thought. It was even more laughable that Apple Bloom, a child, had more sense than the adults. He was tempted to just walk out there and confront Zecora himself. He was about to do it, until he saw that Zecora had finished up and was leaving.

Just as he was about to look away from the window, Lloyd caught something in the corner of his vision. He spotted Apple Bloom tailing Zecora out of town. He did a quick scan of the room and realized that Apple Bloom actually goes out.

'Welp.'

"Uh, everyone? I think we have a problem. Apple Bloom's missing." The green pony interrupted their argument. Once he had their attention, he pointed his yellow bare hoof to the open door.

"She went outside!?" Rarity cried out, in which Lloyd nodded.

"That silly little filly! I told her to stay put!" Applejack was the first out the door, followed by the rest of the girls. Twilight told Spike to stay in case Apple Bloom came back, and the baby dragon gave a salute. With that, they followed the rest of the group out of the bakery, chasing after Apple Bloom.



The group followed Apple Bloom's trail into the Everfree Forest. They soon found the small filly, as well as the mysterious Zecora not much further ahead.

"Apple Bloom!?" Applejack quickly called out to her sister. While it did get Apple Bloom's attention, it also grabbed the attention of Zecora. "You get back here right now!"

"Beware! Beware, you pony folk! Those leaves of blue are not a joke!" Zecora called out to them in return as she backed away, deeper into the forest and out of sight.

"What?" Mico questioned with dumbfounded look.

Mico looked down and finally noticed that all of them are standing in a patch of vibrant blue flowers. With the exception of only Apple Bloom, Justin, and JR.

Applejack, on the other hand, didn't seem to take her words as a warning, and instead, a threat. "Y-You keep yer creepy mumbo jumbo to yerself, ya hear!?" She yelled back at the zebra as she scooped up Apple Bloom. The girls, sans Twilight, all shouted similar threats. Well, except Pinkie, who was singing that song she wrote once again. As for Mico's brothers, they don't seem to mind.

"Oh brother..." Twilight muttered.

"Beware! Beware!" Zecora's exotic voice echoed through the forest, chanting the same warning.

"Yeah! Back at you, Zecora! You and your lame curse are the ones who'd better beware!" Rainbow yelled back.

"And you!" Applejack turned her head to face her little sister, who was still sitting on top of the farm pony's back. "Why couldn't you just listen to your big sister? Who knows what kinda nasty curse Zecora coulda just put on you!?"

"Just like in my song! EVIL ENCHANTRESS~! WITH THE DANCES~! AND THE TRANCES~!" Pinkie hopped around in the flowers, singing her song again.

"You guys, there's no such thing as curses!" Twilight argued, shaking her head.

"Says the magical talking unicorn. Listen Twilight, I agree with you that they're overreacting about Zecora, but you can't say curses don't exist when you literally have a talent for magic." Lloyd butted in.

"My magic, real magic, comes from within. It's a skill you're born with. Curses are artificial, fake magic. It's conjured with potions and incantations, all smoke and mirrors meant to scare. But curses have no real power. They're just an old pony tale." The purple unicorn explained.

"Just you wait, Twilight. Yer gonna learn that some pony tales really are true." With that last statement, Applejack and the girls turned back around and left, making their way back out of the forest. Twilight, Mico and his siblings shared skeptical glances before following them.

'Curses, huh? Like that'll actually happen.' Lloyd thought with a smirk.



The rest of the day had been uneventful, and soon the sun had set, being replaced by the moon. Mico turned in for the night, and awoke the next day.

The second he woke up, he could tell something was wrong.

Mico doesn't know what is it, it felt unfamiliar, but also the opposite at the same time. It wasn't a completely foreign feeling, though. It felt kind of like when he was using all of his elemental energy, yet slightly different somehow. Obviously, it couldn't possibly that, since he never activated it yesterday. At least, he didn't remember activating it.

He shrugged it off as he goes outside to go jogging, which was his first thing to do in his morning routine. Not to mention it is also 4:00 AM.



Just as he made a single step outside, he crashed to a random tree. "W̸̥̳̤̮̯̯̼͔̌̀̿͛̈́̽͐͛̓̾̾͂͝͠H̷̺̟̝̘̼̹̫͑͌̽͊̐̄̈́͒̅̇͐A̶̛̩̎͊̔̈̎̀̑̉̀͛̍̕T̴̡̯̺̩̳̽́̏̒̈̂̈̈́͊͒̑̅͐̚͠!̴̨͎̯̝̞̹̖̓!̵̘̳̲̘̒̃̓̐́̈͂̽̅͌̊̉͜͝", Mico then falls to the ground on his back.

"I wasn't e̷̹̦̘̖̮̎x̴̨͈̭̬̘͖̯͙̮͓̤͒̓̓͂͗̂̃̀̌̕p̴̛̛͈̲̺̆̊̏̆́̔́̍̇̅̾͆͝ě̶̛̝̭̟̲̭̮͉̣͉̦͖̹̼̪̯͂̃̈́͂͐̄̕ĉ̸̟̙̔̎͆͌̎̐̕͝ͅt̸̯͉͕͚̤͕̪͖̲̻̙̘̮̀͑͒̈͗̽̐̇͒̓͒̈́̋͘͘ĩ̶̼̤̦̭̣͉̮̖̹͈̯̭̹̣̋̌͑̽͑́̋̕͘̚͘͝ṇ̵̛́̀͋̍̓͌̈̎̌͘̚̚͘g̵̫̻̰̎́̄̒̀̓̓͒͌͝͠ that." Mico said as he got back up, "W̶̲̟̓͒e̵̜̣̋̑̒͠l̷̡̡͔̝̅̈́̇͗p̵̧̧̩̮̩̻͇͎̘̻̋͝."

"My ǵ̵̢͎͓̭̞͙̦͍̖͍̜͂͋̐̓͐̀̚̚͠ḽ̶̗̺̠̦͇̲̭͙́̀̀̈́i̸̖̋͗̄͐̆̐̐͗͜ṭ̸̗̝̪̖͉͐͂͒̓͊̃̑͛͜c̵̡͍͈̜̺̙̈́̒͂͋h̸̨͍̰̪̺̥̱͓̻͙͠͝ ̵̛̞̫̱͕́̅̌̃͌̎͒̑͒͘v̸̻̘͉̒́ǫ̶̡̛̩̬͚̮͈̯̈̈́̈́̿̔i̶̢̥̻͍̹̲͙̪̗͐͒̾̓͌̇͆͐̕̚c̵̬̍̊̉̂͊̂͊͘͜͝͝ḛ̶̢͙͇̗͔́̀ͅͅ also appears out of nowhere ḯ̷̖̩̥͓̖͂̊͊n̶̥̫̅͐́̄̑s̴̲̉̆t̷͔̹̬͒́̀͑͌ë̶̙́́́̕͝a̴͉͓͗̽͜ͅḋ̴̦̌̉͛͗ of my control." He said as he runs back to the library.



When he got back to the library, he first checked his appearance. To do that, he lit up his horn with yellow aura, materializing a mirror in front of him. However, when he looked at his own body, it shocked him.

His cyan streaks in his mane and tail are instead glowing blue, but it disappeared after a second, same for his glowing blue eyes, which became normal yellow again. The stripes in his horn are glowing with blue aura.

"Boy, since when did this started." Mico said, his eyes wide with shock.

Shaking his head to clear all the thoughts, he goes to the bath while grabbing his toothbrush and started brushing his teeth. Things seemed to be back to normal until when he finished brushing his teeth, he made one step forward to the door, which teleported him outside of Ponyville. 

"AGAIN!" Mico shouted as a robed pony approached him. "Hello Mico." The robed pony replied to him in a feminine voice as he tilted his head to the stranger, its height was very tall and the robe is color black.

"Oh h̵̜̬͉͓̳͓̺̭́͌̽͒̾́͜͠͠ẻ̴̛̱̲y̵̩̥̼̑͗̒ mom." He replied as he gulped.

"Go now, I'm just here to know if you're okay."

"Of course mom, I'm just okay." Mico responded as he teleported with a cyan flash.



Getting to the Golden Oak Library was easier said than done, thanks to Mico's powers going nuts, in addition to having raw power. He randomly sprouts blue spectral wings that'll sent him crashing into buildings, his strength made his steps powerful enough to crack the ground beneath him, and his speed was uncontrollable, making him move at supersonic speeds out of nowhere and causing him to crash into even more buildings. To make things even more annoying, he would randomly use a random magic spell. Still, Mico persevered, and eventually  reached the library.

"Okay, finally. Now just gotta go to the front door-OH CRAP!!!"

His spectral wings appeared and flapped so hard it lauched him a few meters from the ground. While midair, his spectral wings started flapping, sending  him through the library's second story window. He crashed into the stairs, tumbling down until he reached the ground floor. After coming to his senses, he looked around to see that Twilight wasn't the  only one here. Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy, Spike, an Apple Bloom were all present. Not only that, but also his 4 siblings. Seeing them all made one thing clear.

"Looks like I'm not the only one affected here." Mico said aloud.

Twilight's horn flopped around like it was made of rubber and was  covered in blue spots. Pinkie's tongue was inflated, preventing her from speaking coherently and making her spit everywhere. Like Twilight's  horn, it was covered in blue spots. Rarity's mane was long and messy,  covering her whole body like a wet mop. Rainbow Dash had crashed into a  bookshelf and gotten herself tangled in a ladder, and her wings were angled weirdly. As for Fluttershy and Apple Bloom, nothing seemed  to be wrong with them, at least at first glance. Same goes for Spike,  but he hadn't been in the forest with them, so that was to be expected.

When he goes for his siblings, Lloyd had the same effect as Pinkie, only that instead of having inflated tongue, "Wait a second, where is-?" The former said, his voice cracked and old rather than soft and young, his question was interrupted when he started coughing before it stopped after a few seconds.

"I hate to say I told ya so, Twilight, but I told ya so!" They all  turned in the direction of Apple Bloom, where the voice had come from.  The voice wasn't from Apple Bloom herself, but the pony riding on  her back. The pony in question was Applejack, only her whole body is pea-sized. "It's a curse, I tells ya!"

"But Fluttershy seems just fine!" Twilight said, looking over at the shy pegasus.

"Same goes for Apple Bloom. Either of you notice anything weird about yourselves?" Macoy asked the two of them, he had an ugly appearance; his mane was long, but not as long as Rarity's, his mane was also darker along with other horrible-looking features.

"I've been the same since yesterday, as far as I can tell." Apple  Bloom responded. Fluttershy, on the other hand, remained silent.

"Fluttershy? Are you okay?" Twilight asked her, and Fluttershy turned away, not wanting to look her in the eye.

"Is there something wrong with you?" Twilight asked again, and Fluttershy nodded nervously.

"...Would you care to tell us?" Fluttershy, once again, kept her mouth shut.

"So... you're not gonna tell us?" Fluttershy gave a curt nod in response.

"Yes you're not, or yes you will-?"

"Good  gravy, girl! What's wrong with you!?" Applejack butted in, hopping on  top of a stack of books to reach eye level with Fluttershy.

"Yeah, c'mon, Fluttershy. Whatever it is, it can't be worse than the rest of us." JR added as he glanced to Macoy's direction, the pegasus' eyes widened but didn't lasted for 2 seconds and he glanced back to Fluttershy. She remained silent for a bit longer before finally giving a vocal response.

"...I don't wanna talk about it." Fluttershy said, her voice deep and masculine.

"Snrk... BWAHAHAHA!!!" Spike burst out laughing. "This is  hilarious! Heh, look at all of you! We got Hairity, Rainbow Crash,  Spitty Pie, Apple-tini, Hideous Diamondhero, Flutterguy, Acute Diamondhero, Crack Diamondhero, and...uh..." Spike  paused when he reached Twilight, unable to come up with a nickname for  her. "...I got nothing. 'Twilight Sparkle', I mean seriously, I can't  even work with that."

"Hmm..." Mico looked at Twilight's horn for a second, which flops around. It didn't take long before an idea sprang into his head.  "...How 'bout Twilight Flopple?"

"Oh yeah! That's perfect!" The baby dragon cheered.

"Don't encourage him!" Twilight snapped. "This is no joke, you two! Now  Spike, start looking for more books so I can find a cure!" Spike groaned at having his fun be shut down, but he did giggle a bit when Twilight's  horn flopped around a bit more.

Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash had managed to get untangled from the ladder and flapped her wings, hovering in the air. At least, she tried to, but was having much difficulty trying to control what direction she flew in. "I think we'll find a cure to this curse at Zecora's place!"

"It's not a curse!" Twilight scowled as Rainbow crashed into another bookshelf.

"I agree with Dash. We'll go to Zecora's and force her to remove this hex!" AJ proclaimed from atop her stack of books.

"It's not a hex either!" Twilight insisted. As the girls continued to bicker amongst each other, Mico noticed Apple Bloom tiptoeing out of the library. He stepped away from the others and followed her, wincing as a couple of his hoofsteps left holes in the library's floor.

"Hey, kid!" Mico got Apple Bloom's attention once he was outside, making the filly jump in surprice. She turned to face him, eyes darting around in a desperate attempt to find an excuse.

"O-Oh! Mico! I-I was, uh..."

"Relax, squirt. I'm not gonna go all 'Mr. Authority' on you. Let me guess, you're gonna go find Zecora and ask her to fix this?" A couple seconds passed before Apple Bloom hesitantly nodded.

"This is all my fault! If I hadn't followed Zecora in the first place, none of this woulda happened. I've just gotta try and fix it!" Mico put a hoof in his chin as it morphs into a dragon claw, thinking about what he should do. He came to a decision and said, "Alright then, I'll go with you. We'll go find her together."

Apple Bloom's jaw dropped as she stared at the stallion. "Y-...You'll come with me? You ain't gonna tell on me?"

"Yeah, you seem pretty dead set on trying to fix this, so who am I to stop you? The Everfree Forest can be dangerous, so it'd be better if you didn't go alone.

Plus, after seeing how overprotective Applejack was yesterday, I think it's time for a little teenage rebellion."

Apple Bloom looked at Mico with confusion. "I'm... not a teenager."

"Eh, filly, teenager. Same difference." He shrugged as he unintentionally shoot a lightning bolt from his horn, making him flinch a little. "Anyway, we should get going bef̶̛̖̫̐̑̀̈͊ö̵̳̳̫͚̺̿̒̓͛́̾͘r̷̩͓̟͖̟͕͚͙͒̾̌̈̊̏͆̚͘͜e̶̛͎͚̗̬̬̻̘͙̿͐̇͒̓́̔͌͘ ̴͓̪͓̬̦̜̜̺͊̋̉̉͊̑t̴̡̧̬̱̹͚̗̖̠͎̊̊̏̈́̑̾̇̐͘͝h̶͈̻̙͐́̊̐̈̚ę̴̛̣̮̖̼̤͑̈́y̶̡̨̗̫̝͊̔͜ ̶̨͔͚͔̒͒̄̏ř̸̬̚ë̷̼͓͈̙̣͇̺͔̲́̆̚ą̸̨̺̙͓̥͓̈́̐͗̈́̕͜͜ͅḽ̷̯̦͘͝ize we're gone." A smile spread across Apple Bloom's face as she nodded enthusiastically. The two of them began trotting away from the library as they began to find Zecora.

Unbeknownst to them, Mico hadn't been the only one to notice Apple Bloom sneaking out of the library. Applejack had spotted her sister leaving and, not being big enough to follow on her own, hid inside Apple Bloom's mane. She also overheard what Mico said, and was absolutely furious about it. Not only had he not stopped Apple Bloom from running off after Zecora, but he encouraged her to do so. Teenage rebellion!? Why, she had half a mind to give the 'Worst Thing Alive' an earful. Thanks to Justin, he joined(shrinked himself to be the same size as Applejack's current size) with Applejack to find their younger siblings. However, unlike Applejack who is angry, he is pretty chill, because he knew Mico can be trusted as a middle sibling in his family.

In fact, Applejack fully planned on yelling at him(I'm talking about Mico, not Justin).



Mico and Apple Bloom reached the entrance to the Everfree Forest, though they had been delayed a few times thanks to Mico's powers randomly activating on their own. They were about to charge into the forest but were stopped when they heard a voice call out to them.

"STOP RIGHT THERE!" The voice called out. It took Mico and Apple Bloom a second to realize the voice had come from the latter's mane. A tiny pony popped out from underneath the head of hair, a seething glare on her face, a tiny Justin also popped out beside the pony, with him having a smile.

"Applejack?" Mico stared at the farm pony, a little surprised. Then again, she had already shown how protective she was of her sister, so he probably shouldn't be. Even with Justin accompanying AJ, his level of surprise didn't grow in the slightest as he now behaves like an average gentle sibling.

"I can't believe you, Bluey! You were gonna let my sister go into the Everfree Forest!? And without any protection!?!" Applejack yelled.

"What, I'm not good enough for protection? I go and make a new adventures for my living, okay?"

"You barely have any control over yer powers right now!!"

"Oh please, it's not as ḃ̸̨̧̨̘̮̠̗ͅa̵͈̳͑͗d̵̡͕̠̪͇͂̓̓́͐̀̈́̕͝ ̷͇͕̭̠̪̒́̈́̓̕͜a̸͓͂̔̅̕͠ŝ̶̡ when I woke up in 4:00 AM. I've gotten it under contro- NOT AGAIN!" Mico was cut off as his horn made a red spark, which causes a spring board catapulting him upwards, headfirst into a tree branch. He fell back down into the dirt before getting back up, brushing some of the dirt off. "...for the most part."

"And you!" Applejack turned her attention to her sister. "This is the second time you've run off after Zecora! You turn around right now, missy!"

Apple Bloom looked up at her sister before a cocky smirk took form on her face. "No."

"NO?! You can't ignore a direct order from yer big sister!" Ignoring Applejack's protests, Apple Bloom took her sister off her head(which unfortunately included Justin, cuz he is near Applejack) and placed her on the branch of a nearby tree. While it was around the size of a foal, AJ's size made it so that leaping off that branch would lead to injury.

"Sorry, Applejack, but I'm the big sister now." Apple Bloom giggled as she turned to leave. Nero followed her, a little surprised but still satisfied she had taken charge like that. However, Justin leaped off the branch and landed, leaving no injury behind, surprising the 2 in the process, "Welp, gotta tell this to our friends, goodbye!" He said as he ran off, leaving a sky-blue blur behind.

"We'll come get you on our way back. Just sit tight, and don't go anywhere." The blue pony called back to the farm pony. As expected, Applejack demanded they come back, to which she was ignored.

'Looks like I was right. Applejack really isn't the big sister anymore.' Mico thought as he and Apple Bloom trotted towards the Everyfree Forest.



It didn't take them very long to find where Zecora lived. After a few more incidents involving Mico's powers, the duo found themselves standing outside of a hut adorned with odd looking masks and decorations. If Apple Bloom had been trying to hide her nervousness, she wasn't doing a very good job.

"This place does look a little creepy..." The filly admitted.

"Don't you  worry. I always protect everyone I care about." Mico said as he gave Apple Bloom a pat on her shoulder, which seemed to reassure her. They walked up to the front door and Mico gave it a knock. Fortunately it doesn't made his powers go haywire, he then tried again, this time a bit louder...

...Only for his Enhanced Strength to turn the 2nd knock into a kick, knocking the door off its hinges.

"Uh... whoops." The blue unicorn winced. After he started examining the damage, a familiar zebra came running in from the other room. A look of shock understandably found itself on her face.

"Who was so immature, that they felt the need to break down my door!?" Zecora shouted.

"S-Sorry, that was an accident! My magic has kinda had a mind of its own lately." Mico apologized.

Apple Bloom stepped into the hut after Mico, and Zecora recognized her as soon as she laid eyes on her. "W-We're sorry for bargin' in like this, Ms. Zecora, but we need yer help!"

Zecora looked between the two of them before she relaxed, realizing they meant no harm. "There is no need to fear, for the situation has become quite clear. I assume the damage to my door was simply an accident, and that you came seeking aid for your current predicament."

"Uh... yeah, pretty much hit the nail on the head." Mico said as he and Apple Bloom shared a look. Was she speaking in rhymes? "So, do you know what's causing this?"

It turned out Zecora did indeed know what caused Mico's affliction. She went on to explain that Mico, as well as the other girls, had been affected by a blue plant known as 'Poison Joke'. He recalled the patch of blue flowers they had run into yesterday, and what Zecora said about the 'leaves of blue'. Zecora also explained that she could make the cure, but she was missing some ingredients. Most of them could be found in the Everfree Forest, save for one herb. The herb in question could be found at the flower shop in Ponyville, but whenever Zecora went to buy it, all the shops were 'mysteriously' closed.

"So, what exactly is this remedy, anyway?" Mico couldn't help but ask.

"The process is quite simple to cure Poison Joke's wrath. All you need to do, is take a bubble bath." She rhymed.

He blinked a couple times. "...Now that's simple."



While Zecora started brewing the remedy, she asked Mico and Apple Bloom  to gather the ingredients she was still lacking, using a pair of  saddlebags to carry them. They had to trek a bit further into the forest  to get them, but they managed to make the journey without any incident.  Well, not "getting attack by Mico's enemies and/or wild animals" kind of  incidents. Mico's powers continued to be unpredictable, though. His spectral wings even sent him flying into a nearby lake, which was why he  was currently dripping wet as they walked back to Zecora's hut. Apple Bloom tried and failed not to laugh at the look on his face.

"This is definitely in my top ten worst moments in my life, even worse than my mom being angry." Mico groaned.

"Really? If this is only in the top ten, then what's the worst one?" Apple Bloom asked curiously.

A memory flashed through Mico's mind. He remembered Black Entity hypnotizing everyone on a city he was in and turn them against Mico and his companions, fortunately he got them out of the former's influence.

"You don't wanna know, kid." He shrugged it off.

"Hey, I'm not a little kid!" Apple Bloom argued, scrunching up her face to glare at the devil hunter. She just ended up looking adorable, which made Mico laugh.

"Right, right, sorry, I forgot. You're the big sister now." He joked as they finally reached Zecora's hut. Mico sighed in relief knowing his powers wouldn't be going haywire this time.

"Zecora, I think we found all the things ya asked for-" Just as the pair had entered Zecora's hut, they were met with quite the sight. The  inside of the hut had been trashed, and Zecora stood in the middle of  it. In front of her was Twilight, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Fluttershy. Applejack, still tiny, stood on top of Zecora's head and wrestled with her ear. Macoy, JR, Lloyd and Justin were also there, Macoy and JR covered their face with their hooves.

"...What in Ponyville is goin' on here?" Apple Bloom responded.

"Apple Bloom! You're okay!" Applejack gasped in relief at the sight of her sister.

Apple Bloom shared a confused look with Mico. "Uh, why wouldn't I be?"

"Because Zecora is an evil enchantress who cursed us and was gonna cook you and Mico up into soup!" Twilight explained as she jumped in front of Apple  Bloom, taking a defensive stance. Mico, his siblings, Apple Bloom, and Zecora all shared a look before bursting out into laughter.

"Wow, Twilight. Even you started to believe those rumors?" Lloyd chuckled. 

"Yeah, you know there's no such thing as a curse!" Apple Bloom added on.

"Oh, come on, you two can't just stand there and tell me this isn't a curse." Twilight gestured to the whole group, as well as her own horn.

"This isn't a curse." Apple Bloom proceeded to stand there and tell her exactly that. She then brought the ingredient-filled saddlebags over to Zecora, who began explaining the situation to them. Well, except for Justin, as he actually knew it already.

"If you will remember back, the words I spoke were quite exact. 'Beware! Beware, you pony folk! Those leaves of blue are not a joke.'" The zebra recited what she had said the day prior.

"She'd been trying to warn us about those blue flowers we ran i̷̥̼̘̱͇̹̣̰̝͕͂̉́̂ǹ̷̺̉͊ť̴̠̉o̸̪̼̼̻̲̓̓̽̄̀̄̓̕̕ ̴͓̺͕̺̙̹͐̀̌w̸̨͕̤͕̐̇̏͋h̷̼̥̫̩͗e̶͇̫̥͖͗n̴̗̣͖̜̜͈̫̪̑͋̓ ̵̨̱͍̻̪͂̚w̷̠̒͑̕e̴̢̡̡̡̼̜̩̤̻̮͂ ̷͍̊̂̉̈̔̄̀̎͂c̷̛̜̦̤͚̍͐̅̀̾̿̀͛̄ḥ̸̨̫̭͋͜ą̸͚̮̙̦̯̮̯̹̬̕s̴̢̺͓̘͇̏̀̓͂͘̚͜ē̷̫͓̦̙̿͊́̄̚ḓ̴̯̗̹̜̈̓̎ ̷̣̰̳̮͍͚̞͒̔̀͛̕a̶͍̳͉̘̻͍̺͇̗̖͐̏̒̆̓̋̌̕͠f̴̝̫̮͚̥͇͇̞̎̽̒̈̀̇t̶̛̟̙͔̘͎̤̿̆̅́͜ȩ̷̤͈̹͓̲̙̈́͌̍͘͜r̷̛͖̜͙̥͕̍̀́̐͘͠͝ ̷̝͊͋̀͆̔͛̄͝͠͝A̴͔͙͋̿̓͌̇́ṕ̴̺̭͎̰̈́͝p̴̡̧̜̝̞̤͕̭͉͘l̶̻͈͖̤̻̯̼̟̬̃̿ê̴̢̨̞̲̺̟͎̿̔̏̚ͅ ̵̰͓̱̘͍̰̗̮͗̈́̎̀̔̈́͂͝B̶̠̾̍͆̃̒̈͘͠͠l̷̩͚̺̳̱͚͇̳͆̅̉̾̃̿̒̿̏ǫ̶̯̞́͑͗͜͝o̸̧͔͈̪͂̀͌̋̌͂ḿ̴͎̠̫͉̩̦.̷̩̜̞͉̺̗̠͐͆͊͂̑͆̈́̎̎ ̸͗͒̾͑̽̑̔͜͠ ̷̰̓̑̅̍͑̕Ţ̴͕̜̦̲̘͇̬͍̤̃͐̆̃̄͐̃h̴̠̲́̊̀́e̷̯̲̗̼̩͎̓̈́y̸̧̲̙̳͖̫͍̣̫̰̎͛̑̏̌̅̒̕'̶̪͈̼̰̙̬̲͛̉̀̎̆͐̔̀̕ŗ̴̠̜̰̲͈̇̐̒̂̔͂̋ȩ̷̨̠͈̥̺͉͒͌́̀̈́͘̕ ̵͙̝̌͌̅̊̋̓̑c̶̙̲̯̙͈̒̏̿̆́͂́a̶̲͔̭͈̭̳̯̜͜͝l̴͓̲͍̙̱̖̇́̍̈͋̚̚͘̚͝l̴̢̥̜͚̭͎̍̈́͝ę̶̫̬̤̩̭̦̯͂̀͗͆̒͛̈́̌͌d̵̛͉̫̽̅̓ ̶̡̨̤̭̭̼̘̫̻͖́̇̃̉́̈́͌̀͘͝P̵̼̉͑͗̑̅͐̋̌͊̚ǫ̴͉̻̃͑͌̂͊͐͊̿i̴̟̊͌̾s̷͖͎̻̅͑̈̿̎̄́̎́̉͜ͅo̶̍̕͜n̸̠̟̤̮̖̩̠̺̽̃̒̄̚͜͝ͅ ̴̘̘̮̦̞͙͎̲̗̐͌̊͑̃̈́̎͒̕͜͝J̵̨̞͕̞͈̅ͅọ̴̗̮͈̞͔̥͍̎͋k̵̜̊̇̅͋͑e̸͖͔̜͊.̸̛̛̠̞̗̬͓̠͓̑͛̅̒̓͐ͅ" As Mico explained, his voice took on a glitchy voice part way through as his magic forced him to morph into a blue snake, with yellow eyes and is about 8 feet long.

"That plant is much like poison oak, but its results are like a joke."

"What in the hay does that mean?" Applejack asked, confused by Zecora's rhyming.

"She's  b̷̮̳͓̮̣̯̭̃ą̶̩͍͓́͆̀̐s̴̡̬͕̖̻̔͜ḯ̴̛̛͇̱̹̰̈́͂́͠c̷̢̢̨̝̖̱͚̭̞̿̀͌͗̎͗̓͌ͅä̴̛̟̟͈̺̹́͘l̶̺̗̠̼̬̈́̉͊̾̿̂̌́̎̕l̵̻͋͗̽̾̉̾̿̐͑̚ȳ̴̖͖̗̞̞̱̩̦̒ ̸̛̭̙̈́̔̊̚͝s̷͎͋̆͘á̶̱͆̐̉y̷̧̱̪̟̬̏̅́̅͑͗͝î̴̬̖͓̝̝͎n̶͔̜̮̠̝͔̖̼̎ĝ̷̢̺̳͖̗͈͖̙͔́̏͛̾̄͠͠ that because we ran into the poison joke, it caused all these problems with ǫ̴̱̼͍͎̘̺͙͈̽͜u̷͙̠̪̬̼͚̳͛̄͛̈́̆ŗ̸͖͚̰̣̤͌ͅ ̴̜̖̟͂͆b̶̛̟̖̾͑͑ǫ̸̣̠̫̱͓̥̭͕̑̈́͗̓͛̿̀͒͘͘ͅd̶̼̄͋̅̑̍̃̂̕i̷̛̟͚̙̞̦͇̔̐̈̑̈́̀̇͘ę̸̘̩͈̺͙͓̍͆s̴̨͉̣͖̅̒̀́͐̈́͘ ̶͖͊̅̎̀̚ą̸̲͉̤̠̊͂͆̆s̴̺͔̜̗̣̞͌̉͗͒̿͗͗͒͌̾͜ͅ ̴̙͉̳͍̻̣̲̮̆̂̿̋̽̈́͗̽̄̚s̶̮͖̙̼̤̗͆̿͛͝o̷̙͍̗͇̰̰̰̐̿͌́̒͑̈́m̴̨̢͔̯̯͎̗̈́̒̒͊ḛ̷̠̹̞͑̄̏̅̌̀̏̋͗̂ sort of joke." Mico, once again, clarified. The girls all seemed to accept the answer about the  Poison Joke, but didn't seem to be convinced about Zecora not being evil.

"...Okay, fine. But what about the cauldron?" Rainbow asked.

"And the chanting?" Fluttershy also asked.

"And the creepy decor?" Rarity also also asked.

"Treasures of the native land where I am from." Zecora gestured to a  pair of masks in the corner. "This one speaks 'Hello', and this,  'Welcome'."

"Not welcome at all, if you ask me." Rarity grimaced  as she eyed the masks. Macoy assumed she was grimacing, but it was  hard to tell when he couldn't see her face through her shaggy mane.

"The words I chanted were from olden times, something you call a nursery rhyme."

"But, the cauldron... the Apple Bloom and Nero soup?"

"Looky  here, Twilight. That pot of water wasn't for us, it was for all these herbal ingredients." Apple Bloom pointed to a nearby book with the  recipe for the Poison Joke remedy. "The cure for Poison Joke is a simple  ol' natural remedy. Ya just gotta take a bubble bath!"

"Besides, if Zecora were somehow ẹ̸̡̡̨̹̼̘̩̤͐̏̇͗̔̈͝v̶͇͓̹͓̼͓͚͗̏̑̅̓̌̆́͝ͅi̵̻͎̥̺͕̇͐̓̽̍̀̄̈́͜͝͝l̷̦̬̜̯̙̠̟͂͆̆͜͝ ̸̛̼͖̹̏̓̍͝ą̸̺̺͕̑̋͜ͅņ̶̺͂d̶̡̪̜͖̱͇̥͌ ̵̧̹͓̬̠̩̩̓̋̇̿͌́̐w̵͔̭̤̑a̶̛͖͑̎́̽́̉̽̚n̶̫̰̈́̆t̴̢̰̲̭͍̠̪͒̒̍̇̄͝ë̷̢̟̤̙̟̏̈́d̷̛̹̱̰̘̱̣̩̏̾̐͋͒̊̀̌̋ͅ ̸͚͔̓̾͗͂͠t̷̢̖͕̳̠̥͆̐̈́̒̕o̴̢̘̮̦̹̖̒̀͛̉̌͜ ̷̪̫̮͚̉̒̈́͘c̵̡̡̩̯̠̈́͌͝o̸̙̼̮͖͍̲͂͝o̵͚͎̟̘̺͚̜͉͂͐͝k̴̹̀̎́́͘ ̷͖̗̍̔̓̾̾̇͛̍́̒u̵̧̢̘͙͔̘͓̓̽̽̏̀͐͜͜͝s̵̛͈͇̩̭̝͍̋͆̈́̄̉̚͘͝͝ ̶̭̞̳̭̮̞̜͚̰̅ͅḯ̸̦͔̼́̾̓̇̓̓͋͠n̸̨̻̭͕̬̼̫͖̾̌̏̂̄t̸̢̢̮͇̣̩̬͗̒ȍ̴̬̳ ̶̙͇̞̫̻͇͙͉̣͖̂̐͂̆s̶̹̺̺̩̐͆̅̊͐̀̀͋̚ȯ̶̡̡̞͙̩͚̞̭̹̎͋͘͜͝ứ̸̡͎͙͍̑̎̍͒͘p̸̱̣̫͕̎̒̎̅̃͌̋̀̑,̴̼̳͌ͅ ̸͎͇̥͓͂d̵͍̼̈͐͗͌ȯ̵͙́̿́͑̔̓͜ you honestly think she could overpower us of all ponies?" Mico gestured at himself and his 4 siblings as Twilight looked over the recipe for the cure.

"...But  I tried to find a cure in all my books and couldn't find anything! What book has this natural remedy?" Twilight turned to Zecora with her  question.

"Here is the book, see? Sad that you lack it in your library." Zecora closed the book and showed the cover, revealing the  title of the book as 'Supernaturals'. Twilight stared at the book in silent shock as her ears began to droop.

"Actually, I do have this book. But I didn't look inside because the  title was so...weird." At Twilight's words, Zecora just smiled and opened the book to a different page, which Twilight read aloud.  "Supernaturals; Natural remedies and cure-alls that are simply super."

Twilight hung her head low, looking ashamed. "I... I'm so sorry, Zecora. I had  the answer the whole time, if only I'd bother to look inside."

"Maybe next time, you will take a second look and not judge the cover of a book." Zecora stated with a smile.

'Oh, she was definitely waiting to use that metaphor.' Justin thought as he noticed something on JR's flank, his face turns from happy into a suspicious one.



Zecora was kind enough to fix up another batch of the herbal bath, however she needed help getting the final herb from the shop in Ponyville. The group agreed to explain to everypony that Zecora was, in fact, not an evil enchantress, and to help her find the herb she needed.

Unsurprisingly, the townsfolk scattered the second Zecora stepped into town.

Thankfully, Twilight managed to convince Daisy, the owner of the flower shop, that Zecora was friendly. After getting the herb and fixing up the new batch, they went to the Ponyville Day Spa and requested to use their bathtub, since it was big enough to hold all of them at once. Well, except for Justin and JR, as they didn't come into contact with the Poison Joke.

"Man, I could get used to this..." Mico let his body unwind, no longer having a random look on his body and he can control his own magic/powers properly again. While this bath was just meant to cure the Poison Joke, it was surprisingly relaxing. It felt good to just lay back and enjoy the tranquility of the therapeutic water.

At least he had a little bit of peace, until Pinkie Pie cannonballed into the tub, splashing everyone.

'So much for resting my eyes.'

"Miss Zecora, I would love to get the recipe for this bath. It's simply luxurious!" Mico, along with his siblings overheard one of the spa owners, who had a thick Swedish accent, asking Zecora about the herbal bath.

"Applejack! Hey, where's Applejack!?" The 5 siblings was stirred from their thoughts by Apple Bloom's voice. Mico shared a look of horror with the other girls in the bathtub as they frantically searched for Applejack.

"I'm right here, little sis." Everyone looked outside of the tub when they heard her Southern drawl. She was sitting in a small cup just outside of the tub, now she barely fit in it, having returned to her normal size. "I ain't tiny no more!"

Everyone let out a collective sigh of relief. Everyone seemed to be relaxed once more, until Pinkie burst out from underneath the water. "OH MY GOSH! I never realized how horrible it is not to be able to talk! I mean I love talking so much and when I couldn't talk anymore my tongue was all aaaaah~! It was the worst! Don't you agree, Fluttershy!?"

"...Yes." Fluttershy gave a smile, her voice having returned to normal.

Seeing that everything seemed to be back to the way it was, Justin also joined with them. "Ah, this feels so good. I should do this more often."

"I agree, I wouldn't want to have me embarrassed on my aged voice. I always wanted to go here like weekly." Lloyd said while scratching his neck.

"Yes, I couldn't agree more. a trip to the spa always does wonders for me." Rarity agreed.

"Hm? Oh, I was just talking about the bath. This is actually my first time going to a spa." Justin responded.

"WHAT!?!" Rarity had closed the distance between them in a second, placing her hooves on his shoulders. "You've never had the luxury of enjoying a fabulous trip to the spa before now!?"

"Uh, no, why?" He was a little surprised by the sudden invasion of personal space.

"This simply cannot do! Lotus Blossom! Please prepare my usual! I must show Justin the wonders of the spa treatment!" Rarity called to the spa owner.

"Wait what!? Hold on, I regret saying anything-"

"Say no more, Justin! I promise you will love every second of this venture! Now let us be off!" Rarity dragged him out of the bathtub and further into the spa, forcing him to endure that only Jesus knows what.

'Atleast I still have free time.' Justin thought as he saw something on JR's flank again, who was looking at him and Rarity.

JR then leaned closer besides Mico, Macoy and Lloyd and whispered, "She forgot to include us there too." However, Mico shrugged it off as Lloyd stopped scratching his neck and responded, "Don't mind them, atleast we experienced having spa atleast 10 times."

Featured Characters:Parasprites, JR Diamondhero

Warning:A few swear words only.



JR burst out of Sugarcube Corner's kitchen, coughing in an attempt to breathe through all the smoke that had been filling the room.

The reason why the golden pony was attempting to make baked goods was because Princess Celestia will visit Ponyville tomorrow. Everypony in Ponyville was helping prepare for her arrival, and Twilight had asked JR to pitch in. He was supposed to be helping Mr. and Mrs. Cake prepare the desserts for the banquet, but he wasn't doing a great job, since he haven't cooked for atleast 2 months, as evident by the current state of the kitchen. The last time he cooked was 3 days before they got into this world.

"Oh Goodness! Goldie, are you alright!?" Mrs. Cake rushed over to him after hearing his coughing fit.

"Yeah, I'm good. Now, I need to clear the smoke." JR turned to face the entrance to the kitchen, smoke pouring out of it. He enveloped himself with yellow aura, and waved his right hoof horizontally. His swing was powerful enough to create a large light-blue gust of wind that blew through the kitchen, forcing the smoke out through the open windows and airing out the kitchen in seconds.

"There. The kitchen is once again safe to enter!" JR stepped back in and approached the oven. After opening it, he used his magic to pull out a muffin tray filled with nothing but charred ashes. "Can't say there's any hope for the cupcakes, though."

Now that he thought about it, perhaps there was a reason their parents take care of cooking. JR didn't even want to think about the time he set his kitchen on fire while cooking, or the time he placed his foods in the refridgerator, only for the foods to be completely frozen thanks to his Cryokinesis.

"Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Cake! How's the banquet coming?" JR heard Twilight's voice as he exited the kitchen, still carrying his failed attempt at baking. Twilight had poked her head through Sugarcube Corner's main entrance to check up on them, and gave him a wave once she spotted him.

"W-Well, not that great, actually. JR's having a bit of... difficulty in the kitchen, and Pinkie Pie is..." Mrs. Cake pointed to a large table containing all of the desserts that were made for the banquet. While some of them remained untouched, most had large bites taken out of them, if they hadn't been eaten entirely.

Pinkie, while wearing a crown that she got from... somewhere, was currently demolishing a giant two-layer cake in just a few bites. A large chunk of frosting remained on Pinkie's face, looking a lot like a beard. As expected of the pink pony, she promptly licked it off of her lips before eating that too.

'Welp, hours of work wasted.' JR thought.

"Pinkie!!! What are you doing!? Those sweets are supposed to be for the princess!" Twilight expressed, an understandable look of shock and horror on her face.

"I know, that's why I'm tasting them! Somepony needs to make sure that everything is tasty enough to touch the royal tongue!" Pinkie stuck out her tongue and pointed at it to emphasize her point. She then marched out from behind the table and started speaking in a much more regal tone of voice. "And I, Pinkie Pie, declare that these treats are fit for a King! Or a Queen! Or a Princess!"

Pinkie then caught a glimpse of JR's burnt cupcakes, causing her to grimace. "Except for that. That is definitely not fit for royalty... or anypony for that matter." he groaned at Pinkie's criticism as Twilight stopped her from chowing down on another cake. Just then, the front door opened again.

"Twilight, Pinkie, JR! You won't believe-!" Fluttershy had run through the door, clearly excited about something, before skidding to a stop. "O-Oh, I'm sorry. Uh, am I interrupting?"

"No, not at all! Come on in and make yourself at home!" Pinkie answered. Since Twilight was distracted by Fluttershy's entrance, she took the opportunity to grab another cake with her tongue and swallowed it whole in one gulp. "What's goin' on, Fluttershy?"

"You won't believe what I found at the edge of the Everfree Forest! Come on out little guy. It's okay." On Fluttershy's cue, a small, blue, sphere-shaped creature with transparent wings popped out from within the shy pegasus' mane. It also had four stubby legs and big green eyes, and its appearance made it look pretty adorable.

Fluttershy gasped as two more creatures that were identical to the first also popped out of her mane. Only the two have different color, one being yellow and one being brown. Seeing as how Fluttershy's calming smile had been replaced by a look of shocked confusion, JR assumed she didn't know about the other two creatures.

"They're amazing! What are they?" Twilight approached to get a better look at the creatures.

"I'm not sure. I'm also not sure where these other two came from." Fluttershy pointed to the yellow and brown ones as they flew around the room.

"I'll take one off your hooves. I've never seen anything so adorable!" Twilight cuddled the yellow one. "Besides, it'll be nice to have a companion for Spike so he won't bother me so much while I'm studying."

"Pinkie, JR, do either of you want the other one?" Fluttershy addressed the other two ponies.

"Ugh! A parasprite!? Are you kidding!?" Before he could answer, Pinkie had shown her apparent disgust for the creatures and made her way to the exit. JR, Twilight, and Fluttershy all shared confused glances. "Ugh! Now I've gotta go find a trombone!"

"A trombone? ...Wait, hold on a sec, Pinkie. What the heck are you talking about?" JR voiced his confusion first.

"A trombone! You know..." Pinkie did her best to imitate the sound of a trombone while pretending to play one. Before he could question her further, the party pony had hopped out of the building.

"Typical Pinkie." Twilight sighed as she gave the creature, what Pinkie had called a 'parasprite', more nuzzles. "What about you, JR? Do you want the other one?"

"Nah, I'm good. I already have animal pets in my cave, anyway. Appreciate the offer, though."

"Alright then. I need to go check on Rarity over at her boutique, so I'll see you two later." With a final wave goodbye, Twilight left Sugarcube Corner. Once she left, JR looked at the sorry excuse for cupcakes he had made, as well as all the other sweets that Pinkie had eaten. He gave a tired sigh, knowing how much work they would have to do over.

"Welp, guess I gotta do this..." JR said as his green hoof glowed with blue aura and touches the burnt cupcakes, transfiguring them into a cooked and fresh one. He grabbed the transfigured cupcakes and ran to the exit faster than an eye can see.



(Insert intro here pls)



Because he had stayed to help the Cakes remake all the sweets Pinkie had eaten, JR hadn't gotten back to his cave until after midnight. At that point, he had been so tired that he went straight to his room,  flopped down into his bed, and eat the transfigured cupcakes before going to sleep. For a couple hours, he was able to get some sleep when...

He was jolted awake in the middle of the night by the sound of his spinning globe. He checked the clock to see that it was around 2 AM. Groggily, he got out of bed, left his room, went over to his desk, and answered the call, wondering who was crazy enough to be calling at this hour.

"I hope this is mom and dad..." JR answered. His tone wasn't very professional, but considering what time it was and how tired  he was, he couldn't care less.

"JR!!! I NEED YOUR HELP FINDING AN ACCORDION!!!" Pinkie Pie screamed on the other end. JR was surprised and shocked that it wasn't his parents and instead was one of his friends.

"What the-? Pinkie? How are you calling me?"

"Whaddya mean?" She asked.

"To call me through any spinning globes, you need to cast a certain spell. Only unicorns can use it. How the heck are you even calling me?"

"I have my ways! But that's not important right now! If I don't gather the right instruments in time, all of Ponyville could be in danger! I was busy wondering how I was going to find all of the instruments I needed all by myself and then I remembered 'Hey! Mico does a bunch of different jobs for everypony if you call him and ask him to help you because he is called 'Mr. Jack-of-all-trades'! Normally he would do it, but he was camping in Everfree Forest with Macoy, Justin and Lloyd!' So that's when I got the idea to call you instead and ask for your help collecting all the instruments I need and I couldn't help but think to myself, 'Pinkie Pie, you are such a genius!' and then I was like, 'Thanks, Pinkie Pie!' and then I was like 'No problem, Pinkie Pie!' So then I called you and asked for your help finding an accordion, and then you asked how I was calling your phone since I'm not a unicorn so I said, 'I have my ways!' and then I retold every detail on how we got to this exact point in time! Talking over the phone like this is really fun, by the way!"

"...Pinkie, do you have any idea what time it is?" JR said as a brown hedgehog approached him and cuddles in his mane.

"Hmm, I'm pretty sure it's around 2:45 a.m. right now. Why do you ask?" Pinkie wondered innocently.

"...Listen, I'll help you with whatever you need as long as you let me and my pets sleep. Whatever it is, can it please wait until morning?"

"Really?! You'll help!?! WOOHOO!!! Okie-dokie, I'll see you tomorrow! Meet me in front of Sugarcube Corner at 8 o' clock sharp! Bye!"

Before JR could respond, Pinkie disconnected the call, leaving JR to watch as the spinning globe stopped glowing with spectrum of light. He hung up the phone and dragged his hooves back to his room. He flopped back into his bed, falling back to sleep soon as his animal pets did the same.



"WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP!"

Once morning came, JR was once again rudely awakened by Pinkie Pie. Instead of calling this time, she woke him up by bouncing up and down on his bed and yelled for him to wake up. 

The yellow pony rubbed the sleep from his eyes before locking them on to the pink pony, feeling very grumpy. "Pinkie, I thought you said you would let me get some sleep. Didn't you say we were meeting at Sugarcube Corner? Why are you here?"

"Yeah! I said to meet me at 8 o' clock! You're late!" She exclaimed louder than what he should be comfortable with. To confirm Pinkie's words, JR looked over at his clock to check the time. It was 7:54 a.m.

"No, I'm not. It isn't 8:00 yet." He grumbled.

"It's almost 9:00, and you aren't even out of bed yet! Now c'mon, time's a wastin'!" She zoomed out of his room and left him to get up. Reluctantly, JR get up of his bed, grabbed his important things and followed. He found Pinkie outside the shop hopping in place, looking like it would be torture for her if she had to stay in one place for more than five seconds.

"Alright, let's get down to business!" Pinkie pulled out a checklist from who knows where and began listing off items. "I managed to find the trombone and the accordion already, so we don't need to worry about those. I still need a harmonica, a banjo, a pair of maracas, a tuba, some cymbals, a flute, and as many tambourines as you can find! Hopefully we can find everything in time to stop the parasprites before the princess gets here!"

"...Run that by me again?"

"Here, just take the list! I've already got it memorized! Find as many items on the list as you can then meet me in the center of town!" After that, Pinkie ran off at the speed of light. With a sigh, he reviewed the list for himself.

'Shouldn't be too hard. But then again, I can memorize things easily.' JR thought before going to start his job.



JR underestimated his current job.

He figured out the simplest answer was to go to a music store and buy the instruments. However, this plan was pretty useless once he got to the music store. As for why, there were actually two reasons: The first reason was that the store was miraculously out of stock for every instrument on the list. The second reason was that even if the instruments were in stock, JR didn't have nearly enough money to afford them.

'Mico, tell me you didn't cause this.'

Thankfully, JR was able to find a couple of alternatives. He had gone to Sweet Apple Acres, remembering having seen Applejack with a banjo once. The apple farmer was happy to lend it to him, but she also asked if there was some sort of music event going on, since Pinkie had shown up earlier asking for her harmonica. JR only said that it was just Pinkie Pie being Pinkie Pie.

He hit up a couple of other places before eventually finding himself knocking on the door to Rarity's boutique. Instead of Rarity answering the door like he expected, he was met with a young unicorn filly. JR noticed that the filly had a bit of a resemblance to Rarity, and he realized why when the filly introduced herself as Rarity's sister, Sweetie Belle. According to her, Rarity left a little while ago to take care of something. When JR showed Sweetie Belle the list, the filly told him that they had a flute, and was kind enough to let him borrow it.

'Alright, 2 down, 7 more to go-'

Before the yellow pony could finish his thought, he felt someone bump into him. He turned to see Twilight carrying 2 saddlebags, both of which were stuffed to the brim with... something. The bags jostled around as whatever was in it most likely wanted to get out.

"Oh! Sorry Goldy, I didn't see you there!" She quickly apologized.

"No problem. Say, you wouldn't happen to know where I can find some maracas, a tuba, some cymbals, and a tambourine, would you?" He asked, and Twilight just blinked at him in confusion.

"...Wait, what? I'm sorry JR, but I've got a serious emergency right now! I don't have time to go looking for instruments!" Before he could ask what the emergency was, Twilight ran past him in a hurry, leaving him alone.

'Welp, guess I would wait for Pinkie.' he thought before continuing to find more instruments.



Since his run-in with Twilight, JR only found one more instrument.  Because somepony had thrown a tuba into the trash. He thought it might have been broken, but after checking it, the tuba  seemed to work just fine. As for why someone would throw away a  perfectly good tuba, they are wasting it.(Yep, they would do it anyway LOL)

Not having any luck with the other instruments, JR stood in the  center of Ponyville to wait for Pinkie like they had planned. He tapped  his hoof impatiently as he waited, wondering why she was  taking so long.

"Come on! You should be here in just moments!" He  muttered.

He started looking around for something, anything interesting enough to keep him occupied. Unfortunately, he couldn't find anything of the sort until he looked up.

Slowly raining down from the  sky were several little creatures with wings. JR recognized them as 'parasprites, the creatures Fluttershy had shown them at Sugercube Corner yesterday.  Instead of just the three, however, there was an entire horde of them.  There were so many that JR couldn't even attempt to count them all.

None of the other townsponies seemed to be worried about the  creatures. In fact, they looked upon them with awe and wonder, too focused on how adorable the creatures looked to question what they were.  A couple ponies even held them in their hooves to admire them. For the  first few seconds, everything seemed calm.

Then everything has gone wrong.

The  creatures began swarming the entire town like insects, eating every crumb of food they could find. Ponies' lunches were quickly stolen from  them, food carts had their entire stock ripped from them, and gardens  were devoured in seconds. It was pure chaos.

"Hey! Schoo! Get out of here!" JR summoned a golden spectral fly swatter with his glowing gold hoof and swatted the pests away as best he could, but proved to be futile. His first thought had been to just blow them away with his Aerokinesis, but the chances of killing them kept him from doing so.  This is because he protects nature and its animals, which was stated by his father.

"What do we do? They're eating all the  food in town!" JR's ears perked up when he heard Fluttershy's voice.  Looking around, he spotted the Mane 6, minus Pinkie Pie,  gazing upon the scene.

"My apples!" Applejack gasped just as JR approached. The farm pony  took off in the direction of Sweet Apple Acres, most likely to defend  her orchard from the creatures.

"I'm assuming this was the emergency you were talking about earlier?" he questioned Twilight, getting their attention.

"It's a long story, but we don't have time to explain! We've got to  do something about these creatures! If we don't get rid of them before  Princess Celestia arrives, it'll be a complete disaster!" Twilight responded first.

"Can't you use your powers to do something about  these things!?" Rainbow Dash pointed at the golden pony before trying to mildly blow away some of the parasprites.

"I protect nature and its animals, remember? I can't just go killing the animals relentlessly. Twilight, is there some sort of spell you could use?"

The purple unicorn put a hoof on her chin in thought before a light bulb appeared on her head. "I've got it! I'll cast a spell to  make them stop eating all the food!"

Twilight's horn glowed and cast forth a burst of energy. Purple glowing rings spread throughout the  entire town, moving through all of the creatures. The parasprites all stopped in place once the rings had passed over them. Not  a single soul moved as they waited in anticipation to see if the spell worked.

"HEY JR! LOOK! I FOUND A BUNCH OF TAMBOURINES!" JR turned his head to see Pinkie running up to him with saddlebags filled with tambourines. "How did things go on your end? Did  you find all the instruments we need?"

"Uh, yeah, I found some, but not all. Here, take 'em." He handed the  pink pony the banjo and flute before returning his focus to the  creatures. "I'll help you with the rest later, but as you can see, we're  dealing with something more important than that right now."

Pinkie's eyes widened in shock. "What!? But Goldy, that's what I'm trying to-!"

"Not now, Pinkie, I said I'll help later." He simply told her.

"I-! But-! Wha-!? GRRRRRGH!!! IF ONLY YOU WOULD ALL STOP AND LISTEN TO ME!" Pinkie yelled in frustration before running off with her instruments.

Ignoring  her, he and the other girls watched as a parasprite flew near a basket with a single apple inside. It gave the apple a sniff, and  they all held their breath, waiting to see if it would ignore the apple.  After a couple seconds, the creature turned away from the apple, having  no interest in it.

'Finally it worked, now I can finally-'

His thoughts were cut off when the creature opened its mouth wide and ate the entire basket instead,  leaving the apple untouched. Similarly, all the other creatures had  begun eating inanimate objects all over town. Signs, streetlamps,  storefronts, even houses. The only thing they didn't eat was the food.

'...Frick' JR thought as Rainbow grumbled sarcastically, "Hey, it worked. They're not eating the food anymore."

"...Oh no! If they get inside my store...!" A look of horror quickly  found itself on Rarity's face as she came to a realization. "EVERYPONY FOR HERSELF!!!"

Rarity took off, racing back to her boutique to save her dresses. The others all came to the same conclusion and ran back to their own homes, hoping  to stop the creatures from eating their stuff. JR did the same, using his Supernatural Speed to go back to his cave. He didn't have anything important besides his weapons and personal items, and he was already carrying  them. Still, he'd rather not have to pay to replace anything.

With the current state of his wallet, he probably wouldn't be able to afford it.

As JR was running back to his store, he caught a glimpse of blue shockwaves in Everfree Forest, which was accompanied by an orange one. "Mico's fighting someone? But then again, he can handle it."



JR arrived in his cave and found the place swarming with the creatures. His pets are running away in fear, but some are trying to fend the parasprites off. Some of his furnitures are damaged, while the others are untouched due to having nearly a hundred of furnitures.

"Oh no you don't!" He summoned his  spectral fly swatter once more(but slightly bigger) and started swinging wildly at the pesky  creatures. After a few minutes of constant swatting, the creatures gave  up and flew out of the cave, narrowly avoiding his wrath.  Once they were gone, JR inspected the damage in his home, which made him upset.

An idea popped out of his head as he closed his eyes and reopened them again. Yellow aura appeared around JR once again, his mane glowed neon green, orange and red while flowing, same for his tail, only glowing blue and yellow. His hooves glowed with green light and his pupils glowing yellow.

"Let's do this." He said as he waved his left hoof, enveloping the whole cave in yellow wave and undoing the damages that the creatures did to his cave.

"Now what."

While JR was having his thoughts, they were cut off by the sound of music.

He can barely hear the sound of an orchestral band playing music, but he easily recognised it. From the sound of it, the music was coming from outside.  Curious, JR ran outside to find the source of the music. It was none other than Pinkie Pie of all ponies marching down  the streets of Ponyville, carrying all of the instruments she had  gathered. What was even more bizarre was that she was somehow playing  all of them at once! What really made JR's jaw drop, however, was the  effect the music was having on the creatures.

The little pests seemed to be mesmerized by it, following Pinkie in a single-file line.

'Impossible, only... me and my... brother Mico could do... that.'

JR spotted Twilight and the rest of the girls at the end of the line,  all have equally surprised expressions. He exited his cave and joined them, following Pinkie and the creatures out of town. After walking fo  a bit, they soon found themselves just outside of the Everfree Forest. However, JR felt the ground faintly shake, along with the girls(except Pinkie), but ignored it.

"Look!" Twilight got everyone's attention and pointed to the sky. A  golden chariot being pulled by two royal guard ponies, both pegasi, was  flying down to their location. Sitting inside the chariot was none other  than Princess Celestia herself. Everyone except Pinkie ran to where the  chariot had landed to greet the princess. Once Celestia stepped out of  the chariot, the girls all bowed down before the princess. The only one that remained standing was JR.

"Twilight Sparkle, my prized pupil!" Celestia greeted her student.

"Hello,  Princess!" Twilight returned the greeting, though the tone of her voice  didn't hide how nervous she was. With their bowing finished, the girls  all stood back up.

"So lovely to see you again, as well as your friends-" Before Celestia could continue, her attention was drawn away  by the sight of Pinkie Pie and the line of creatures passing by. Going by her wide eyes, even the Princess of the sun had been taken off guard  by the miraculous sight.

"So, uh, how was the trip? Hit much traffic?" Twilight attempted to change the subject.

"What  is this?" The Princess couldn't help but ask. One of the creatures  landed on her wing, giving her a closer look at it. Celestia couldn't  help but chuckle at the sight. "Oh, these creatures are adorable!"

"They're not that adorable." Rainbow muttered, glaring at the creature.

"I'm  terribly honored that you and the good citizens of Ponyville have  organized a parade in honor of my visit." Celestia complemented.

"Parade? Actually Princess, this isn't a-" JR was cut off when Twilight elbowed him in the side to shut him up.

"Of course! The parade! That's what this is! All according to plan!  No trouble here!" Twilight forced a smile as she chuckled nervously, not  wanting to worry the Princess with the chaos that had just occurred.  Whether Celestia bought Twilight's act or not, JR couldn't tell.

"Unfortunately,  my visit is going to have to wait for another time. I'm afraid an  emergency has come up in Fillydelphia. Apparently, there's been some  sort of infestation." Celestia explained.

"An...i-infestation?" Twilight stammered.

"Yes, a swarm of incredibly bothersome creatures has invaded the poor town."

"Is it some villains I'm familiar with?" JR asked, his tone becoming a little serious.

"Thankfully,  no, it's nothing that serious. I should be able to handle it with the  help of the royal guard." She reassured him before turning back to her  student. "I'm sorry, Twilight, to have to put you all through so much  trouble."

"Trouble? Heh heh, what trouble?" The purple unicorn chuckled apprehensively.

"Before I have to go, would you care to give me your latest report on the magic of friendship in person?"

"My...report?"

"Haven't you learned anything about friendship?"  Pondering Celestia's question, Twilight's gaze soon found itself on  Pinkie Pie, still playing the instruments and leading the creatures back  into the Everfree Forest.

"...Actually, I have." She answered  with a confident smile. "I've learned that sometimes the solution to  your problems can come from where you least expect it. It's a good idea  to stop and listen to your friends' opinions and perspectives. Even when  they don't always seem to make sense."

"I'm so proud of you,  Twilight Sparkle, and I'm very impressed with your friends as well. It  sounds like your all learning so much from each other." With that,  Celestia stepped back onto her chariot, and the pegasi prepared to take  off again. "Oh, I almost forgot. I trust you'll be attending the Grand  Galloping Gala as well, JR, along with your 2 siblings?"

"Yeah yeah, if I don't have anything better to do." He shrugged, and the  princess gave him a smile. She and Twilight said their final goodbyes,  and the chariot flew off into the sky. Once it left, the group all made  their way over to Pinkie, who had just finished leading the last of the  creatures into the forest. Before they can have conversation, a faint earthquake interrupted them. It stopped after around 30 seconds as they resumed talking.

"Hey, what happened to the princess?" The pink pony asked curiously.

"Emergency in Fillydelphia." Twilight replied.

"Some sort of ...infestation." Rainbow Dash added.

"Oh no! Have they got parasprites, too!? Well, have tuba, will travel!"

Pinkie went to play her tuba again, only for Twilight to stop her. "I think the Princess can handle it."

"So, you knew what those critters were all along, huh Pinkie Pie?" Applejack asked.

"Well, duh! Why do you think I was so frantic to get my hooves on all these instruments? I tried to tell you!"

"We  know, Pinkie Pie, and we're sorry we didn't listen." Twilight  apologized first. Everyone else followed with their own apologies, even JR. "You're a great friend, even if we don't always understand you."

"Thanks guys! You're all great friends, too! Even when I don't understand me."

"You saved my reputation with Princess Celestia, and more importantly, you saved Ponyville!" Twilight cheered.



"...Or not." Twilight sighed, staring at the ruins of what was left  of Ponyville. The parasprites had done a number on the town, having  eaten most of it. It would take a while to rebuild everything and fix  the damages. Saying that Pinkie 'saved' the town was definitely an  exaggeration. At the very least, she prevented more harm from being done.

'...Y'know. Why didn't Pinkie used the trombone when she needed it for the parasprites?' JR thought.

To answer his question, Pinkie popped up in front of the group, holding the trombone. She placed her lips on the mouthpiece and blows it.

'She trolled us.'

Featured Characters:Mico Diamondhero, Macoy Diamondhero, Lloyd Diamondhero, Justin Diamondhero, White Entity.

Chapter's Debut: White Entity

Warning:Mild violence on the way!! Atleast not like the original one! - Word by Mico



Several days after Swarm of the Century...

The chapter starts with Mico, who is sitting in a cave near the exit. In front of him was a campfire. He was looking at a picture frame which wasn't shown, and put it back on his saddlebag.

He then picked up a stick on his right side, which was covered in cyan aura, the same as his dagger. he then leaned the stick close to the campfire, setting the end of stick on fire. Mico then proceeds to use his dagger to sharpen the stick while extinguishing the fire naturally. He repeated it again, put the end of the stick close to the fire and sharpen the stick as Macoy and Lloyd arrived, with the former carrying a deer. Mico then stopped what he is doing and slightly tilt his head right to see Macoy gently dropping the deer to the ground in the corner of his eyes.

"Hungry?" Macoy started as Mico put the stick and dagger he's holding to his back. He picked up a few sticks to his right side, which are now sharpened and has a fletching, and handed it over to Macoy. He picked it up and put it in his saddlebag.

"What's next?" He asked again, in which Mico looked over him and said, "We need to go back to the camp."

Mico then stand up while Macoy and JR go out of the cave, with the former saying, "I'll get them ready."

Mico thawed the campfire with Cryokinesis from his glowing horn. He proceeds to approach the slaughtered deer and carried it in his aura as he walked outside, which was the Everfree forest, but is snowy everywhere due to Winter Wrap-Up being near, and most importantly, the time, which was around 7:00 PM when he summoned a random clock. There, he sees a sleigh, 2 timberwolves there with Macoy and JR, the former putting on saddle on a timberwolf mid-way while the latter just sitting in the sleigh waiting.

Mico then put the deer on the sleigh and started tying in with a rope, as Macoy finished putting on the saddle on one of the timberwolves and asked to Mico, "Need help?"

However, Mico did not respond and instead continues tying the deer, Macoy then go besides the sleigh while holding some sort of marble. He was so focused on it that he got surprised when Mico appeared behind him, who finally finished tying the deer.

"Ready?" Macoy nodded as he sits on the sleigh besides JR, who said, "Finally!!", Mico goes into the back of the sleigh while holding on the wooden bar with ropes connected to timberwolves' saddles. "HAA!"

The timberwolves ran in response to Mico, pulling the sleigh that the siblings riding. Passing many trees and swerving around to avoid obstacles, as the timberwolves ran with the sleigh, Macoy said, "JR, why did your cutie mark takes so long to appear!"

"I don't know, maybe because it is delayed." JR responded as he looked at the screen with an irritated look, breaking the 4th wall. "However, I always have my hopes up that they will appear someday. Right?"

Anyways a moment later, they suddenly heard a laughter that sounded familiar, "Hear that?", JR asked.

"Yes." Mico responded.

"Is it her?" Macoy followed, in which Mico responded by halting the timberwolves from running, stopping them from running and the sleigh from moving and saying, "It is her."

"Our camp is not far." Macoy repeatedly look between Mico and the alicorn ahead them, "HAA!" Mico yelled, causing the timberwolves to run while Macoy tumble, "Not again."

"Get Ready." Mico informed.

The alicorn responded by flying towards them, which revealed herself to be Nightmare Moon, she landed on the sleigh, summoned a purple spectral sword and slammed it on Mico, but was blocked by his blue spectral shield. She was trying to break it, but was pushed by Mico aside with little effort.

He turned to his right, along with Macoy and JR, with the latter saying, "Huh? I thought she was gone?"

"Maybe it was White Entity morphing into that... pony?" Macoy added. "She wouldn't give up that easy, would she?"

The timberwolves continue to swerve and maneuver around trees, rocks and other animals, as Mico said, "She never does. Stay alert." As the 2 timberwolves jumped on a pile of rocks with the sleigh destroying it, and passing a fallen tree on 2 rocks, Macoy exclaimed...

"There she is!"

They saw Nightmare Moon flying around them and towards Mico, who punches him and slammed him on the ground beneath them by his throat. "Brother!!" Macoy and JR shouted as the former held Mico's right hoof to help him, but was futile, his head and upper body sliding on the snowy ground, but the timberwolves and the sleigh still move at normal speed. 

Mico then punched her in the face, making her groan as Macoy yelled, "Let go of him!" he hurled Nightmare away while Mico let go of her hoof, escaping from her once again. 

Mico grabbed his younger brother's hoof and stood up, "Got you!" the latter said as he sit back to his seat. "HAA!" JR yelled, instead of Mico himself, making the 2 timberwolves running pace and the sleigh slightly faster. "We've gotta get away from her!" Macoy exclaimed, much to Mico and JR groaning in annoyance, "We are trying!" Both of Macoy's brothers blurt out as they all go down on a low hill, but when they turned to right direction-

"Up there!! What's she-?" Macoy questioned before Nightmare cuts down one of the trees she's standing on and flies away, causing it to fall down. "LOOK OUT!" He yelled, expecting it to hit him, Mico and JR, but instead stopped due to the rock beside the tree blocking it, and so they keep moving.

However, more trees are being cut down by Nightmare Moon, in which JR also yelled, "The trees! They're coming down!" As he yelled that, Nightmare Moon flies towards them, but doesn't hit them.

While the trees did not hit or harmed them, JR sighed in disappointment due to them part of his job to protect nature, just as they continued their way to their camp. "That was too close..." Macoy sighed, while the timberwolves leaped from a log, which mysteriously got shattered.

However, before they enter the woods, Nightmare Moon flies around them again, much to Macoy's dismay and saying: "She's coming around again!" He, JR and Mico are looking at where she was before Macoy got knocked down by her. "M̸͉̲̟͔̎̔ä̴̙̙̥̖̫̣́̌͠ć̶̭̪́́̀͐͝o̷͈̦̔̍͋̐̔y̶̯̺̣͇̹͚̾̀̆̐̿̀͛!̶̱̲͉̲̟͉̮̬̀̈́̿̐!̶̫̮̟̥͓̙̮͍̼́̃̔̾̾͒" Mico yelled in a glitchy voice as he and JR tried to save his younger brother from losing his grip on the sleigh, but Nightmare charged and elbow choked the former, preventing Mico and JR from saving Macoy.

"We do not wish to fight you!" Mico fought back, elbowing the alicorn to force her to stop, after doing it for 3 times, he finally made her let go. "Brother!" Macoy yelled, sliding on the snow. But before he was abandoned, Mico grabbed him in his Psychokinesis and put him back to the sleigh and sit back, just as the former said, "I got you bro!"

Just as Macoy was back to his sit, JR celebrated, "Ha! She's gone! Isn't she?!"

"Really? No... Now hold tight, we are close to the camp!" Mico exclaimed, with the 2 timberwolves did a U-turn with the sleigh. However, she is back, once again flew around and onto Mico, "Oh no..." Macoy cursed.

Nightmare Moon landed on the left timberwolf and jumped into the sleigh, with JR stating, "Moony we're not your enem-" He was cut off when she pushed him and Macoy aside.

"Nightmare, WAIT!"  Mico reasoned, before Nightmare summoned a purple spectral sword and thrust it on Mico. Fortunately, he caught the tip of the sword, but with some struggles as Nightmare Moon angrily tries to pushed the sword to stab him. But before she could do so, Mico elbowed her and used the sword in his advantage, she held both Mico's right elbow and sort of tried to push him.

"Please don't make me do this!" Nightmare Moon looked behind her and was shocked to see Macoy, holding a bow and arrow pointed at her.

Mico smirked, as he used this in his advantage. While she was distracted, he knocked her back, causing her to fall beside Macoy and stabbed the purple spectral sword below the snowy ground. He pulled it out and stabbed it again, this time the force was twice the first one, Nightmare Moon tried to stand up, but it was too late as it flings her to the air, "RRAAGH!"

She flapped her wings mid-air, but wasn't aware that there is a branch behind her, which cause her to fall upon hitting her back on it. While descending, a cyan colored aura surrounds her, when it disappears, it wasn't actually Nightmare Moon, but a different pony.

Said pony was a white alicorn, but unlike Princess Celestia, she had cyan pupils, and her mane was slightly flowing and glowing, with the color being cyan, yellow, light blue and crimson. Other features of the pony are not visible due to how dark it is.

The alicorn hold her left shoulder and tried to stand up, but due to how much pain that Mico inflicted on her, all she could only do was kneel. As Mico, JR and Macoy riding the sleigh passed by her, she groaned in pain before yelling.

"Ḿ̵͕̮̳̥͐̑͂̕ͅI̶̡̺̥͙̖̺̗̻̫͑̀͛̓͐̿̄̅̀̒̌̕͜͜͠͝C̵̢̖̺̳̼̣̺͆̈́̾̇͌͋͌͆́̌́̾̚͝͠O̵͔̜̩͔̥̙̘̒̎͜ͅ!̵̡̫̬̦̻̪͔̯̖̮̻͎̝̦̊̆̀̿̂͐̎̆̌͒͐̏͒̔͆͆͘͜ͅͅ!̸̪̀̀̂͂̀̽̒̉͂̒̎̑͑̚͝ͅͅ!̶̨̨̭̺͍͇͕̳̲̫̳̰̌͛̎̏̍̋̊̈͑̀̉̀͜͝"

Mico, along with JR and Macoy, looked behind to see the white pony, "Hahahahahaha, looks like we made her mad." Mico glared at JR(who said it), causing the latter to gulp. They looked behind again to see a snowstorm happening, with some of the trees and rocks falling, with Mico looking around. "HAA! FASTER!"

"Hurry hurry hurry hurry..." JR exclaimed, as the 2 timberwolves ran and pulled the sleigh faster. Thankfully the falling trees and rocks doesn't hit them, eventually they made it to a cave while Mico prevented the sleigh from sliding further.

"We're finally in the camp. We made it." Macoy said.

"Let us go home." Mico added.

JR then said something to the timberwolves in a different language, in which they respond by walking deep in the cave, in which there is a hole that leads to the other side, while JR laughed, "Woohoo! We made her mad!"

"Yeah yeah. But she will literally kill us! No holding back!" Macoy exclaimed with a bit of panic, as the 3 brothers exited the cave, revealing the snowy Everfree Forest to be the same, only that it wasn't affected by the recent snowstorm and it was the other side.

"I unintentionally send all of us in a new world. We have no choice but the fight them when they do." Mico said, both the timberwolves and the sleigh turning to right direction. As they are traveling via the sleigh, they are talking about few things.

"I guess they are extra prepared for world domination and ready to do that. Had you not decided to delay the inevitable, we wouldn't be here..." JR said with a neutral look.

"I know, but he literally had dark crystals. Now that we're here, we can develop our potencial and be ready for what Black Entity will throw at us." Mico said as they go to the left direction, in which it leads the timberwolves and the 3 siblings to their temporary home as Mico stomped his back hooves beneath the snow, causing the sleigh and the 2 timberwolves to skid to a halt.

Their temporary home, as I call it, is the camp they're talking about while making their way here, which is a cabin, with it being surrounded by trees, logs, bushes and many more. In addition to previous ones, the cabin has a bunch of snow on the roof, which also covered the objects around it. Lastly, both Justin and Lloyd are in front of the cabin, the former not wearing his robe and is sitting on a wooden rocking chair while the latter is sitting on a log, staring at a campfire while holding marshmallows near the campfire. 


(this is what the cabin looks like and the trees, rocks and other things surrounding it, except for the fence)

As the sleigh came to a stop, the 3 siblings get off the sleigh, as Macoy approached the 2 timberwolves with Mico. The timberwolf on the left is gawking on the timberwolf on the right, but then tilted its head to Macoy's direction when he grasp on its chest, and start removing the saddle off on it, with him saying, "I got it boy."

As Macoy started removing the saddle, Mico turns away and starts walking to close the fence surrounding them and the cabin, with Macoy carrying the deer he hunted and gently place it on the ground while being followed by JR and 2 timberwolves, the latter no longer wearing saddles, "That's what I allow! Understood?" JR commanded.

"Yeah.. I know. Now go on.." Macoy responded to JR then the timberwolves, the latter then approached the deer on the ground.



As the timberwolves approached the lifeless deer-

The scene was cut into Mico already approaching the cabin's door, behind him was his 4 siblings. He opened the door, making a creaking sound and stepped inside, followed by Lloyd, Macoy, JR and Justin.

Mico then put down his saddlebag and stone sword on the table beside his bed and under it respectively, just as his 3 brothers made their way in exploring the cabin and doing all sort of things. These activities ranges from Macoy putting down his bow, whip and saddlebag as well to JR tossing a slice of meat into the window, in which one of the timberwolves caught it with its jaws. Additionally, Justin lit up a random unlit candle, giving a green glow in the cabin, and Lloyd enjoying the view outside, with 3 snakes, 1 curled lightly in his neck, with the other 2 in each of his side, on the window.

As the other ponies are doing the activities they need to do, Mico pressed the top of one of the candles in his table, extinguishing the fire and causing the light in the shed to dim a little bit, with Justin saying, "Alright brother... Good night then." Just as he said that, his younger brother laid back in the bed and close his eyes, preparing to sleep.

Featured Characters: Mico Diamondhero, Naeus.

Warning: Another Moderate Violence.



1 day after Mico vs Naeus: The Camping(Part 1)...

The time is around 10:00 AM and JR is seen outside of the cabin, waving goodbye to his brothers as he shoots a yellow-energetic whip on one of the trees, swinging from tree to tree to go back to Ponyville.

With that, Mico and Macoy go back inside, going back to their activities, though Lloyd and Justin stayed outside. Mico was cleaning the cabin, in which he did it in just under 1 minute, Lloyd and Justin are training outside and Macoy was lighting up the candles, cooking foods and doing other sort of activities while being assisted by Mico. After what it feels like 3 hours, they finally finished it as Justin and Lloyd finally stopped training and head back inside the cabin.

As they were eating Macoy's cooked food, Macoy, Mico and Lloyd are not aware of Black Entity and Naeus outside, watching them as the former gestured at the latter to go in front of the cabin.

After the 4 finished eating their meals, they choose what to do next in mind.But before they could move an inch, the 4 siblings heard something, along with the cabin shaking, causing the roof to sustain minimal damage.

"What was that?" Macoy asked, confused on what was happening.

"Quiet!" Justin shushed, after all he knew what was coming.

The roof continued making loud noises and sustaining damages, thankfully it isn't too high. Suddenly, they heard a knock on the front door, the unknown visitor shouting, "Come on out!!"

Justin approached the door, "Its no use hiding anymore!" The stranger said. As the former leaned his ear closer, the stranger said something again, "I know who you are..."

"What's going on? Do you know him?" Macoy asked, while sound a little bit a whisper.

'It's Naeus!' Justin telepathically said to Macoy's mind, just as the unknown visitor said, "More importantly, whoever inside this house, hut or whatever this is called.. I seen you 4 some time ago!"

"Everyone let's get beneath the floor. Now..." Justin signalled.

"Shouldn't we fight whoever is yelling nonsense to us?" Macoy questioned, taking a few step forward.

"Who is that?" Macoy questioned again.

"It is Naeus. Can't you tell by his voice?" Justin leaned down and removed the floor mat, while Mico and Lloyd joined in, the latter asking, "What's he talking about?"

"It doesn't matter. GET IN!" Justin whispered, opening some sort of wooden trap door. Macoy and Lloyd jumped in, but Mico doesn't. "Will you fight him? Because I'm about to hide like your younger siblings." Justin asked, but Mico didn't reply. He simply standed there as the former jump below the trap door and closing it.

Mico then proceeds to cover the trap door like what it once was and approached the front door.

"Just tell me what I want to know! No need for this to get bloody." The stranger demanded.

Mico opened the door, and sure enough, it was Naeus, the skeleton standing there. But what differed him from his original form is that he was instead a skeletal pony, while being slightly taller than Mico's pony form. He retained his attire, but was adjusted to fit Naeus' new body. He also retained his yellow glowing eyes.

As Mico stepped out of the cabin, they both stared at each other's body.

'Never thought he would be taller than me, when we have the same height back on Earth' Mico thought.

For Naeus, he was looking at Mico with a questionable face, while having a thought, 'Mico is a unicorn, a mythical creature. Though I cannot mock him, I'm a pony too, atleast a skeleton to be exact.'

"Though you'd be smaller, but you're definitely the true Mico." Naeus started, glaring daggers at him, "Long way from home, aren't you? You just sent all of us to a world far worse than I expected."

"What do you want?" the blue pony asked, glaring far more intense that what the skeleton does.

"Oh, you already know that one." Naeus answered with a smirk.

"Whatever it is you seek, I do not have it." Mico said, turned his back on the skeleton and lit up his horn with red-orange aura, preparing to use a powerful attack. But before he could use it, Naeus laughed, forcing the blue unicorn to cease the light on his horn. "...And here I thought your kind was supposed to be enlightened."

"So much better than the natives in this world. So much smarter."

"And yet you hide here in the woods.. like a coward."

But Mico just ignore the insults, standing still and saying, "Hmph... Your going to regret that."

"Oh, I'm pretty sure I do." Naeus responded, holding his chin with right hoof before hitting Mico in the face. In response, Mico just glared more menacing saying, "You know what will happen..."

"Oh we already know that one." With that, Naeus goes for another punch, this time with his left hoof, then punch Mico in the breast part, then uppercut for the third one, but the skeleton's attacks didn't phase him. For his 4th strike, Naeus punched with his right hoof, but it was caught by Mico. He flexed Naeus' arm to the right, causing the latter's body to be bent to the right as well.

"I warned you." Mico said as he punches Naeus in the face, the latter before getting punched saying, "Finally."

As Mico punches the skeleton, the latter got pounded into the ground and struggled to get up. With that, Mico looked into the camera with a smirk and said, "See? He just lost to me in just one hit. Or is it?"

Mico looked on the struggling Naeus and approached him, who said, "No... No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no." Mico grabbed Naeus by his right hoof, "Fine. My turn."

Naeus punches Mico, but this time it was not suppressed, sending the latter flying, hitting the cabin's eaves, and while starting to fall, hits another eaves on the back of the cabin and tumbles into the ground.

While Mico was getting up, he looked behind to see Naeus standing on the destroyed eave, jumped high and went to go land where Mico was. Seeing the danger, Mico rolled sideways as Naeus landed on his previous spot, creating a small crater and sending rubbles flying. He approaches Mico as the latter stands up, the former complaining, "How incredibly disappointing. Come on then."

Then their first fight in the new world starts, Mico made the first move, sending a series of punches at his opponents, who was too slow to react to his lightning-fast movements. His second round of strikes sends Naeus into a tree, destroying it and into the cabin's wall, which mysteriously sustained the impact.

He dashed towards Naeus with blue blur behind, but before he could reach the skeleton, he dashes as well, but on the left. The skeleton stops behind Mico and does a Double Axe Handle. Reacting quickly, Mico rolled backwards to avoid the attack, causing Naeus to hit a rock instead. "Pointless."

Mico dashed forward a bit and punches him 2 times, forcing Naeus to make a step back and dash to left again. He was unable to react to the skeleton, burning and empowered hitting him on the back, Naeus goes for the second strike, but Mico dodged it and uppercutted Naeus while the latter had his guard down. Mico punches Naeus dozens of times before kicking him, but Naeus had the chance to attack again. To evade the attack, the unicorn rolled out of the way, but when he stood up, he got uppercutted by Naeus, but dodged the next attack via rolling past him.

With Naeus having his guard down once again, Mico strikes the skeleton a couple of times by kicking him, his opponent bumping into some logs. Naeus stands up, but before he could do so, the blue unicorn fires yellow magic bolts a few times, hitting him in the head, in the stomach, in the legs and many more.

Before Naeus could get hit by more, he bursted with flames and dashed behind Mico, but the latter reacted fast and turned his head around, reeled his left hoof before hitting the burning skeleton, followed by a few quick punches, the last strike knocking him on a few trees, causing them to get blown to smithereens. Naeus(without flaming aura) recovered and stood up, saying, "Do better-"

His speech were interrupted when Mico dashed, leaving a blue lightning trail and punched him so hard not only he sent the skeleton flying to a tree and a rock, but sent him to a large rock.

Mico's horn glowed cyan as Justin's scythe flew and halted next to him. The large weapon being enveloped by the same aura's color.

He swinged the weapon 2 times, hitting the skeleton on each side, unfortunately Naeus paid back, flared his flaming aura once more and punched Mico, creating a small explosion that knocks back the latter. Mico ran towards Naeus, but thanks to the latter's speed being multiplied, he attacks the unicorn faster, then punched him in the stomach followed by an uppercut, sending Mico a few meters high in the air, who dropped the scythe because of it.

Naeus got a hold of his back hooves and slammed Mico down, then hurled him in the air a few meters. The former leaped in the air and dashed, colliding with Mico as both of them falls into the cabin's roof, which surprisingly sustained it, leaving only some woods apart from each other. The roof's parts are also messed up.

Out of nowhere and to Mico's shock, Naeus' head then started to grow a horn on forehead. What makes this different from unicorns is that it is jagged, the length being similar to alicorn's and is made of bones. His horn glowed with orange light, and enveloped Mico's neck with the same aura's color, causing the unicorn to choke.

As Naeus choked him, he said, "Tell me why you suck now... Pain stop. Real simple." then the skeleton did a downward punch, which Mico avoided, hitting the roof beneath them instead. The impact caused the roof to finally get some real damage, rubbles falling on the hole. Both of them looked on the hole, Mico had a nervous expression while gulping, Naeus had a curious look, them the latter asked, "Why are there 2 beds in the-?"

Whatever was the skeleton asking got cutoff when Mico smacked his hoof in Naeus' face and slammed him down on his left side, but Naeus did that as well, then Mico repeated it. However, instead of pushing him down via his face, Mico uses his Super Strength to push Naeus aside by his body instead. Mico ignited his horn with cyan glowing light and enveloped Naeus' neck with it. It may not choke the skeleton, but at least it keeped him from moving. After helding Naeus in place, Mico started beating up the skeleton, he punched him several times, the last 3 punches followed by 3 words, "LEAVE! US! Å̵̡͔̰̰̼̳͓̟̦̪͋̅͆͛̌͂͠Ľ̴̛̛͎̉̈́̓̾͂̾̌̿̈́̔Ờ̴̢̦̬̣̞͙̪͓̪̪̽͌́͊͛̈́̋́͠N̴̢̞̞͉̤̻̏̄̑͒̈̓̚̚͜Ę̷̻̯̻͇͕͙̞̼̼͇̜̝̜̅̂̀͌̄̉̀̈́̃̈́̈́̈́͘͠!̷̢̨͙͖̘̗̔̑̈́̎̇̐̋͋̍̌̕̕!̶̫̫̋"

Mico's final punch wasn't exactly a punch, it was actually a double axe slam, which causes the cabin's roof to create another hole and both Mico and Naeus fell through it and on the side of the cabin. But before Mico could stand up after the fall, the skeleton is covered in flaming aura once more, and dashes into his back. Naeus grabbed him by the waist and suplexed him, he didn't gave the blue pony a chance to stand up as he kicked Mico, destroying 2 trees upon hitting them.

The camera zoomed in as Naeus walked forward. When the camera zoomed far enough, it showed Mico standing up, his right hoof onto a fallen tree's trunk and is covered by scratches and bruises from head to hoof, while breathing heavily.

"Struck a nerve. Did I?" Naeus mocked, slowly approaching Mico with each step every second. However, not even 3 seconds has passed, Mico grabbed a hold of the trunk and slamming it on the skeleton, not only sending him flying and destroying another eaves from the corner of the cabin, but also extinguish the flames around him. Mico ran where Naeus got flung, the latter slowly falling and the former grabbed him by the waist. Doing so, he continued running, destroying the cabin's corner.

Naeus elbowed his back, but he persisted and continued to running while carrying the former, due to that, Naeus' body hit a rock near a tree, "Who are you hiding?!" Naeus yelled while punching Mico's side(still no effect) before hitting a large rock, while being pinned on it. He had no other option but to slam his skeletal hooves down the unicorn's back, forcing Mico to release Naeus and fall to the ground, thanks to him inflicting more force, he struggled to get up.

"Slow and old. Why disguise as a young stallion in a pony world?" Naeus taunted, his skeletal body had cracks on them, some of his bones have scratches, his horn's tip is missing with cracks on it. Naeus raised and looks at his left hoof, as the cracks and scratches on his body slowly disappears, his jagged horn slowly heals as well. For Mico, his scratches and bruises slowly disappears as well. When both the blue unicorn and the skeleton healed completely, Naeus said another insult, "So... Care to try again?"

Mico looked up at the skeleton and responded, "You talked too much." With that, he lit up his horn, which surrounds Naeus' body and punched him dosens of times in his barrel. He goes for the final hit, but he made a big mistake; releasing his psychokinetic grip on Naeus, causing the latter to dodge it at the last half second. It's now Naeus' turn who rapidly punches Mico in the breast, rarely in the face.

Mico fought back by punching, but it was easily avoided by the skeleton, who slapped him away and hitting the same large rock. The only difference is that Mico got through it and got stuck, with small rubbles falling on the newly made hole, there was also some of roots from a tree on it. "You won't talk? Fine. Maybe whoever it is you've got stashed in that house will."

Mico, after hearing the last sentence, felt anger. But instead of letting it take him over, he put that aside. Mico then inhaled and exhaled before blue-colored lightning surrounds him, and as Naeus turned to his back, Mico broked out of the rock and ran towards him, turned his back on the skeleton and kicked him, the impact causing blue sparks to appear briefly. Naeus didn't have time to react as he was sent flying to a large tree, Mico pinned him via his left hoof and punched the skeleton with his other hoof, causing the tree behind him to loss a large chunk of it as Mico threw him behind. The former grabbed the same tree with Psychokinesis, put the end in front of the skeleton and pushed it with hooves.

The combination of his speed and strength allows him to push both the trunk and Naeus, as Naeus and the trunk collided with the large rock and dugged through it, the former screaming, "Who is it!? Are you afraid I'll touch your siblings?!" As Mico and Naeus reached the end of the rock and going beyond it, the latter colliding with another large rock, but is a bit smaller while the former pinned him with the trunk he's holding, the skeleton said, "Let's find out!"

Naeus grabbed the log and broke it apart with bare hooves. He dashes in front of Mico and punched him, knocking back the blue unicorn, who retains his electrical aura. Naeus prepared for an attack, but was speedblitzed once again by Mico, whose time perspective slowed down until it came to a stop. With the time perspective paused not because of time stop, but because of the nature of his Super Speed, he summoned a blue glowing construct shaped like a pole. Using the pole, Mico swings it just as the the slow motion disappears, hitting Naeus in the face and cracking his skull, but not severely. He swings it 4 more times, hitting the skeleton in the body 2 times and the right hoof respectively.

Naeus got away before being hit by the final swing, causing Mico to hit the large rock and lets it disappear. He turned around and shot a quick burst of magic, hitting Naeus in his horn which was unaffected with the latter saying, "Pointless."

Mico tried again, but this time he didn't use his magic, instead he uses his Elemental Energy. He charged up for a split second before releasing a blue colored ball with lightning. it knocks back the skeleton, Naeus avoids few punches and lasers from the pony before charging up a blast of his own, though it takes a few seconds. Mico did the same(just as short as a second), and both of them released it to hit each other. Both lasers are evenly matched, before Mico's blue colored beam overpowered Naeus' in the blink of an eye, knocking him back once more.

Naeus got up again, his skeletal body showing some cracks, with his horn's tip missing. Despite the damages he sustained, he remained more than strong enough to take another barrage of punches from Mico, whose uppercut fling him atleast 6 feet from the ground and punched mid-air, flinging him on a tree and destroying it.

The skeleton got up and looked at Mico, who was fast approaching, is covered in electrical aura and ready to break his skull, if not for the unicorn's aura instantly disappearing with his hoof inches away from Naeus' head. 



Naeus chuckled with a smirk before teleporting behind Mico, the latter turning around fast enough while summoning Justin's scythe in his aura. Try as he might, he swung the scythe 2 times, the 1st one being avoided by the skeleton via ducking, while the 2nd swing is interrupted by his punch. Naeus flared his aura and punched Mico harder, which creates a tiny wound on his cheek. The latter rubbed his left hoof on it, while rolling away from another punch from Naeus leaping and striking down. 

He turns around again and swing the scythe 5 times, hitting the skeleton and causing another major damage on his body. He avoids the last 2 swings and smashes his hooves on the ground, creating an explosion the size of an average pony, in which Mico dodged it easily. "Why are you holding back?" Naeus complained before getting hit 2 times, he fought back by bursting into flames, charged up his horn and released it, knocking back Mico with an explosion on his previous position.

Naeus charged at Mico, but he was blasted by a ball of dark magic from the unicorn. With the skeleton stunned for a second, he grasp at Naeus' hind legs and spins him, the skeleton laughing before being thrown into the large rock head-first. He looked up a bit and was met by a kick, creating a larger hole in the rock. Mico grabbed his shoulders and smashes his head to the right side of the rock 3 times, the last one being the strongest. Mico wasn't sure if Naeus got knocked out cold, but he ignored it anyways.

He yeeted the skeleton in front of the 10 meters big rock and punches it 2 times, destroying a chunk of it. Mico proceeds to push it down it in Naeus' direction, burying him with a large chunk of rock. Unfortunately, due to the force he applied to shove it, it caused an earthquake that shook the forest, with trees moving, some parts of rocks falling off, and dust cloud appearing in front of Mico before disappearing in seconds. Mico, covered in alot of scratches and bruises, decides to walk back home slowly.



The same time the earthquake happened...

On her cottage, Fluttershy was doing her daily routine, which is providing foods for the animals and other forms of care. But when she was outside her cottage, she felt a mild rumbling on the ground, it continued for a few seconds before coming to a stop. Fluttershy looked at the direction of the Everfree Forest, which is now snowy due to Winter Wrap-Up being close. She made a confused look being going back to her daily routines.



Back to Mico...

Mico was seen walking back home, only a few steps after he ended the fight with the skeleton. However, his feeling of peace was interrupted again as he felt the ground tremble, forcing him to crouch.

"Leaving so soon?!"

Mico looked back and stood up as the large rock was hurled upward and falling on him, fortunately he summoned Justin's scythe and hit the large rock, shattering it to pieces. The same time he did that, Naeus was flying on him while being covered in flames and ready to punch him, however Mico reacted faster than before and caught Naeus' burning hoof. The latter tried again with his left hoof, but was caught again and Mico pushed him while turning to left. 

Mico(while blue flames and blue lightning starts surrounding him) did a forceful pushed on the skeleton until the latter's hind legs are now on the cracks on the ground as he said, "When Black Entity sent me here, he wanted us to go back to Earth, but..."

At the start Naeus' sentence, the unicorn applied more force, so much that more lightnings are appearing from Mico's body, some snows being blown below their hooves and a few seconds later, cracks appearing below them as even more appeared alongside the large crack created by the large rock falling on Naeus previously.

"...You, you had to act all proud." Naeus muttered, more cracks appearing in the Everfree Forest while some pieces of earth are falling below. "Throw whatever you have at me... I'll keep coming." he speaked again, the camera zooming in to focus on both Mico and Naeus.

The rock in the background falling with the tree besides it having the same fate. "That old body will give out. But before I end this, I want you to remember one thing... I can't feel any of this." With that, he let go of Mico's left hoof and hit him in the face. He stumbled backward from the punch before Naeus stomped down his fore hooves, creating a pillar of fire that sends Mico upward several meters. The skeleton grasp at his body, but Mico broke from it and grabbed Naeus by his shoulder.

With that, he punched Naeus twice before his body is below that of Naeus', giving the latter an advantage and allowing him to kick Mico down with both hind legs, causing his blue flaming(and lightning) aura to disappear. When he was about to fall in the large fault, he summoned his own sword and striked it down on the edge of the crack, effectively slowing down his fall but have him tens of meters below the ground, rubbles are also falling on the vertical stab Mico's sword made.

Mico then retracts his stone sword to his saddlebag and teleports it back to the cabin, and proceeds to climb up to resume the fight.

"You've seen it with your own eyes; not only you can't hurt me, you can't defeat me!" Naeus yelled and bragged at the same time, but Mico didn't care and continued climbing up.

"This fight is pointless. Your struggle is pointless."

(Once again, Mico never cared, because he grown up to be a mature stallion)

"It didn't have to be this way." Naeus said, with Mico a few meters away from the ground. But just as he grabbed a hold of the ground's snow, Naeus stomped on it while shouting, "Pathetic stallion."

The stomp causes what Mico grabbed onto shatter. Mico, while standing on a chunk of ground by hind legs, got launched on the opposite direction and hit the other side of the fault. "You can't win." Naeus boasted as Mico stood up.

"I feel nothing. But you.. you feel everything. Yet you, you keep trying. Even the 6 mares are stronger than you."

While listening to what the skeleton was saying, Mico's blood boiled with his injuries popping out of existence. "And if you just accepted the offer, it wouldn't have ended this way." Naeus finally finished as Mico looked upon him.

"But no..." Suddenly, Naeus lunged forward, jumped to reach the other side and was about to punch Mico, only for the latter to sidestep him. "Let's finish this." The skeleton said after landing on the other side and before fighting Mico for the 3rd time.

Mico started by firing a magic bolt twice, hitting Naeus with perfect accuracy before he jumped a few meters in the air. Mico tried dodging his move, but the skeleton destroyed the tree nearest to the former while falling and has flaming aura. His fall creating an explosion twice an average pony's size, causing Mico to tumble and fall in his rear.

"You can't beat me!" Naeus yelled, before getting a punch 2 times and ducking under the 3rd one. With the unicorn caught off guard, Naeus punched him in the breast, but dodged his uppercut. Unfortunately, Mico is vulnerable again, as the burning skeleton punched him in the head in a downward motion. Soon, Mico recovered as Naeus rolled backwards and stomped his fore hooves, sending a wave of flames that Mico dodged(by rolling to the right).

Mico summoned his sword, ran up to Naeus and swinged it 2 times, hitting him successfully. Naeus fought back with 2 punches, 1st punch being dodged by the blue pony and the 2nd one hitting him in the cheek. Again, Naeus lunged and about to do a downward punch against Mico, but he blocked it by creating a shield made of blue energy and swinged his stone sword, knocking back the skeleton a few meters away and creating a powder of snow where he got yeeted.

Unexpectedly, Naeus did a zig-zag as Mico's eyes widened in surprise, before getting kicked in his right hind leg and tumble. To catch the skeleton off guard, Mico jumps up and got back to his hooves and swings his sword, knocking him back a few meters. Naeus raised his fore legs and stomped, sending a wave of fire towards the blue unicorn, but the latter countered it by shooting a blast of water from his horn.

Mico dashed forward and swinged his stone sword, which has ice aura on it. Shockingly, Naeus blocked it with his left hoof despite burning and punched him with his other hoof. Mico got knocked around 3 meters back, forcing him to roll backwards and stand up. Again, Naeus dashed in front of Mico and punched, again dodged, he uppercutted and Mico cannot dodge on how close he was. He did a downward punch on Mico for the 2nd time, again he blocked it with the same shield and swings his stone sword on the skeleton, knocking the latter a few meters.

Naeus dashes towards Mico with an intent of punching him, but the latter sidestepped him as if he was just walking past him. He swinged his sword 2 times and then kicked the skeleton with his hind legs, all attacks successfully hitting their marks. The 3rd of the consecutive attacks knocked Naeus back, the latter then stomped his hooves again and another stream of fire headed to the blue unicorn's direction. Fortunately, he jumped over it and dashes towards his opponent as he swings his stone sword, in which Naeus leaped away from it. 

Naeus roared as he jumps tens of meters off the ground, leaving a flaming trail where he originally was. Mico looked up and his eyes widened before teleporting away in a flash. A second later, Naeus landed, creating an explosion like before, except it is a bit bigger. A second after the explosion occurred, Mico appeared facing the opposite direction and then looked behind, seeing Naeus standing around rubbles as the latter mocked, "Pathetic."

Angered by the insult, Mico teleported in front of him and punched him 2 times, he swinged his sword 2 times as well but Naeus teleported to Mico's right side a few meters before the latter could hit him. The skeleton slammed his front hooves down, once again sending a wave of fire that Mico dodged as he hid behind a nearby tree and mocked, "Using the same move again."

Shortly after saying it, he did a surprise attack against the skeleton and swinged his sword, covered with icy aura once more. His attack was obviously blocked by Naeus, only with his right hand instead of left and punched Mico, sending him a few meters away, destroying the tree behind him and rolling backwards as well. With a timing, he stopped himself from rolling backwards, however the skeleton did another unexpected attack on him by punching him on his shoulder. Naeus did another punch, but Mico wasn't going to be fooled again, the latter summoning a circular shield made of energy and deflected the burning skeleton's fist. With the skeleton's guard down for another time, he hurled his own sword in the air and kicked Naeus with his hind legs, knocking him back atleast 3-4 meters as he jumped in the air and tried to grabbed Mico sword, but it was out of his reach and falls to the ground.

Naeus landed and creating an explosion for the 3rd time, with the stone sword going back to Mico's telekinetic grasp. He hurled his sword once more to the air, this time going higher and higher. As it goes closer to the clouds, it slowly builds up blue energies and lightnings around it, even if it surpassed the clouds.

Back to Mico and Naeus' fight, they dashed to each other and exchanged blows, before Mico knocks back Naeus with a punch. The skeleton slamming his hooves again and sending a fire wave, in which Mico dodged it by rolling to the right. The pony rushed forward and drove his fist towards the skeleton's skull, but was blocked and got a punch instead. Neus teleported around 6 feet to the left and dashed towards Mico with a fist held back and then jabbed it. Fortunately, Mico blocked it with another shield constructed from blue energy, just as his sword falls behind him and enveloped it in cyan aura. He brought it closer and swinged it to hit Naeus, knocking the latter back and nearly falls into the fault.

...If not for his ability to fly.

Naeus blew a stream of fire from his horn and forcing Mico to roll away from it. "I will end you!" Naeus exclaimed as he docked under Mico's sword, but gets hit for the 2nd swing. Naeus transformed his right hoof into a skeletal dragon claw and gripped Mico's neck, but the latter did the same and slammed the former in the ground. He grabbed the skeleton's hind legs and attempted to hurl him down in the fault, which failed as Naeus grabbed onto the edge and stood up.

He approaches Mico, who was about to swing his sword, but the latter countered it with an orange spectral sword. Both grabbed each other before Mico thrown him in the ground and placed himself below the skeleton while holding his head in a "snapping neck" manner. Naeus was struggling to break free from the unicorn until he found a way, which was elbowing his hoof-turned-claw holding his temple, but his tactic proved to be futile, for Mico grabbed him again.

"You are forgetting... the fact that I am a... skeleton that cannot feel anything. You're unlikely to make me finally feel something."

Mico was readying to break Naeus' neck as the latter said his last words, "DO IT! If you dare." at last, the blue unicorn finally snapped the skeleton's neck, breaking it. Mico grunted upon doing so and took a moment to look at Naeus' dead body before pushing his body aside, causing it to fall in the large crack. Mico took a few deep breaths while lying down, another scratches and bruises in his body, but lesser in numbers than before, other than that he was fine.

He stood up with a bit of struggling and flew off to go back to the cabin.



Mico opened the door and stepped inside. He made his way to the floor mat in front of him and removed it, then opened the wooden trapdoor.

Inside was Lloyd, Macoy and Justin. "MICO!" His youngest sibling leaped and hugged him as his back was press in the floor. 

"I was so worried about you... I thought-"

"I am alright." Mico interrupted Macoy as the latter ended the hug and looked at his older brother. His injuries are now minimal, regenerating until all of it disappeared. Macoy questioned, "If Naeus is the one you fought, then how did you struggled?"

Before the unicorn answers the question, Justin interjected, "That skeleton was one of the weakest enemies we fought, so he wishes to become stronger and trained to be at our level." While answering the question for him, he teleported besides them as he walks towards Lloyd and offers a hoof, which morphs into a claw. His younger brother grabbed on it and climbed up and joined in with Mico and Macoy.

"To become a gigachad?" Lloyd asked, earning a snort from Mico and a laugh from Macoy, Justin just smiled at his joke.

"Now enough, let's go gather our things, we are leaving." Mico said. With that, he and his siblings gather all their things and store it in their saddlebags that can store infinite objects. He closed the trapdoor and covered it with the same floor mat.

Macoy, Lloyd and Justin stepped outside, followed by Mico closing the door. Lloyd turned around and asked, "Soooo, where do we go to stay next?"

Mico answered, "To a place where snow is everywhere. Justin? A map of Equestria?"

The alicorn in question lit up his horn and a map appeared in front of him, which was snatched by Mico and looked at it.

"Ahhh, here it is. We go to the Frozen North. It's going to be a LONG trip." the blue unicorn said as he and his brothers prepared to go to the North. Macoy puts on the saddles on the timberwolves back, Justin putting their belongings on the sleigh and Mico and Lloyd waiting for the 2 to finish.

"Yes. But an important one." Justin added, a smile adorning his face. He and his younger siblings rode on the sleigh while JR was in the very back. He flapped the bridle attached to the timberwolves and the latter moved forward, pulling the sleigh.
