Back at Chapter 15; Spike and Flare had an incident and they went back in time, back to the Summer Sun Celebration, two years ago, when Nightmare Moon attacked. Now they're in their box disguises, watching as Nightmare Moon makes a complete fool of herself, thinking she will have the night last forever. This is Part 2, of Flare and Spike's adventure, back in time.

Luna lets out an evil laugh, while everypony was in fear.

"Seize her! Only she knows where the Princess is!" cried the Mayor.

The royal guards start flying towards Luna. "Stand back, you foals!" she cried as she disappears, and her spirit flies away. Rainbow Dash started to chase her.

"Come back here!" Dash cried.

"This is sooooo awesome!" cried Flare. "I'm here to witness the Summer Sun Celebration, and the return of Nightmare Moon! Somepony pinch me!"

Then Spike punched Flare in the back. "OW! Why did you do that?" Flare asked present Spike.

"You said punch me." said Spike.

"I said pinch me!" cried Flare.

"Oh, okay!" said Spike, then he started pinching him.

"Ow! Ow! Stop that! Don't make me use my lazor again!" said Flare.

"Oh, and you're gonna make us travel back more in time?" asked Spike.

"Look we have the microwave and the hot pocket." said Flare. "Now all we need is a power source. A power source that's as powerful as my generator! But there's nothing in Ponyville that's that powerful."

"Maybe there is. Let's head back to the library." said Spike. "Twilight and the others might be there now. We can get information from them."

"Won't you be there?" asked Flare.

"I was asleep the whole time. I didn't get to witness the defeat of Nightmare Moon." said Spike. "But this time is different! I'm not tired this time..." Then Spike fell over and went to sleep. Then Flare squirted water from his horn on Spike, then he woke up.

"Oh no, brah! You're not missing this one! I can't do this without, man. Never leave a brother behind!" said Flare.

"That's right!" cried Spike.

So Spike and Flare sneak inside the library when Twilight is in the other room, tucking in past Spike.

"I'm getting tired of these stupid box disguises!" said present Spike.

"Well too bad. We need them, brah." said Flare. "If we get caught, it can mess up time. Now stay quiet, I can hear Twilight coming."

Twilight starts looking through her books finding the elements of harmony. "Elements, elements, elements... Ugh! How can I stop Night Mare Moon without the Elements of Harmony?" cried Twilight.

"And just what are the Elements of Harmony?" Rainbow Dash asked in a threatning tone. "And how did you know about Night Mare Moon, huh? Are you a spy?"

"No, if she were a spy, she would be sappin mah sentry." Flare whispered. "LOL! Engie's line."

"Simmer down, Sally." said AppleJack, holding Dash's tail. "She ain't no spy. But she sure knows what's going on. Don't you, Twilight?" AppleJack asked Twilight, then everypony started to look at her.

"I read all about the prediction of Night Mare Moon." said Twilight. "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!"

"The Elements of Harmony: A Reference Guide." said Pinkie finding the book.

"How did you find that?" asked Twilight.

"It was under E!" sang Pinkie while hoping around.

"Oh. There are six Elements of Harmony, but only five are known: Kindness, Laughter, Generosity, Honesty and Loyalty. The sixth is a complete mystery. It is said, the last known location of the five elements was in the ancient castle of the royal pony sisters. It is located in what is now... the Everfree Forest?" said Twilight.

"The e-everfree f-forest?" asked Fluttershy in a scary tone.

"The Everfree Forest?" asked Twilight.

"That's the most scariest, most filthiest place in Equestria!" said Rarity. "Except for Singfield of course."

"Well, I don't know about you girls, but I'm heading over there!" said Twilight running out the door.

"Wait for us, sugarcube!" said AppleJack, then everypony started running out after her.

"Alright the coast is clear." said Spike.

"But we're not at the beach." said Flare. Flare walks towards the book and starts reading it.

"Why are you reading that?" asked Spike.

"Maybe the answer to all our questions is... HERE!" cried Flare. "It says: The power of the Elements of Harmony's is so powerful, it can power up an entire trailer full of electronics. The power level is all the way up to 200 volts. 200 volts? That's the power my generator holds! Spike, when Twilight and the others use the elements to defeat Luna, the power is just as powerful as my generator! So if we followed them over there, and used that power to power up this microwave, we can return home!"

"Alright!" cried Spike, then they both high-hoofed. "But wait. You're very silly sometimes, and do stupid things. But all that stuff you said made you sound smart."

"Don't judge a book by it's cover my friend!" Flare said, then bonks Spike in the head with the book, and walks out of the library.

"So I guess we're going into the Everfree Forest, huh?" asked Spike.

"Yeah, pretty much, brah. Pretty much." said Flare.

"You know the Everfree Forest is really mysterious and dangerous." said Spike.

"Hey, Zecora lives in there." said Flare. "If she can survive living it, we can too. She's just a crazy zebra."

"She's not crazy." said Spike. "She knows alot more than us."

"C'mon, we've been in there before!" said Flare. "As long as we don't run into ligers again, we should be fine."

"Well I wasn't worried about them before, but now am I." said Spike. Then they see the Mane 6 up ahead, about to enter the forest.

"The Everfree Forest!" the Mane 6 said at the same time.

"Oh, they all jinxed it!" said Flare.

"Weee! Let's go!" cried Pinkie.

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

"No can do, sugarcube. We sure ain't lettin' any friend of ours go into that creepy place alone. We're stickin' to you like caramel on a candy apple." said AppleJack, as they all ran into the forest.

"Especially if there's candy apples in there!" said Pinkie. "What? Those things are good!" Pinkie skips inside the forest, then Twilight lets out a sigh and follows them.

"Oh did you see AppleJack while she was walking inside the forest? Her freckles were missing." said Flare.

"Yeah, and Rainbow Dash's tail was missing too." said Spike. "What's going on here? What's causing that?"

"That's a mystery we can solve another day, bro! But for now, we must catch up with them, without them seeing us." said Flare.

"What about the boxes?" asked Spike.

"Oh holy Wizard of Strength!" said Flare giving himself the facehoof. "We left the boxes at Twilight's. Oh well, I guess we'll have to make do without them. Hopefully they won't see us." Then the two of them ran into the forest to catch up with them.

The two of them tip-toed behind them and hid behind the trees if anypony tried to look.

"So, none of you have been in here before?" asked Twilight.

"Ugh, Heavens no! Just look at it - it's dreadful." said Rarity.

"Oh c'mon Rarity!" Flare whispered. "The forest may take offensive to that." Then Flare started hugging a tree. "It's okay, it's okay. She didn't mean it."

"Yeah she did." said Spike. Then Flare kicked him in the leg. "OW! Rude much?"

"And it ain't natural. Folk say it don't work the same as Equestria." said AppleJack.

"What's that supposed to mean?" asked Twilight.

"Nopony knows. You know why?" Rainbow asked in a ghostly voice.

"Rainbow, quit it." said AppleJack.

"'Cause every pony who's ever come in, has never come OUT." said Rainbow Dash in a ghostly voice.

"Surprise face!" said Flare sarcasticly. "Wow I am so surprised right now of what Rainbow said. Are you surprised Spike?"

"Yeah I sure am surprised, Flare." said Spike sarcasticly.

"Can you make a really good surprise face?" asked Flare. Then Spike showed Flare his best surprised face. "Leet, dude! This is mine." Flare gives Spike an awesome surprise face.

"Nice!" said Spike.

Then the cliff that held the Mane 6 together collapsed and the ponies began to fall.

"TWILIGHT!" cried Spike. Then he started running after her. But then Flare grabbed Spike with his horn's magic.

"No, brah!" said Flare. "If you rescue them, it'll create a time paradox. I'm sure they'll be safe."

"Are you sure?" asked Spike.

"Did I not just say I was sure?" asked Flare.

"Yeah you did." said Spike.

"Don't worry. Just look down." said Flare. Then they both looked over the edge and found everypony was saved.

"Well what do you know. You're right!" said Spike.
"Of course I'm right! I'm awesome!" said Flare. "Now let's find another way down."

A few minutes later, they caught up with the Mane 6 down the cliff. They found the Mane 6 laughing on the ground together.

"Crying face." said Flare.

"What's wrong, dude?" asked Spike.

"Two things: One we missed what was going on, two they're having such a good time here, and while I was stuck at Mareami, thinking it was still night time, so I slept the whole time." said Flare. "You think I had an adventure? DO YOU SPIKE?"

"No, no, calm down, man. Look, we had great adventures." said Spike. "You're not missing out, you were just late. Don't worry, you're witnessing this now. As a matter of fact this is my first time witnessing what is going on here."

"Yeah, that's true." said Flare. "I wanna be an element." Then they all continued walking. Then the Mane 6 met up with a Manticore.

"Hey look, it's a lion, scorpian, elf, elephant, zebra, dragon, penguin..." said Flare.

"Zebra? Penguin? Really?" Spike asked sarcasticly. The Mane 6 were fighting the Manticore while Spike and Flare were talking.

"LOL! You look so confused!" said Flare.

"Why you calling it something it's not?" asked Spike.

"Hey you're the one who's being too serious." said Flare. "I on the other hand have the best sense of humor in Ponyville!"

"Not yet you don't." said Spike.

"What do you mean?" asked Flare.

"You didn't move into Ponyville yet." said Flare.

"So?" asked Flare.

"So that means you don't have the best sense of humor in Ponyville." said Spike.

"Your mom doesn't have the best sense of humor in Ponyville." said Flare.
"Really? You bought up my mom that I never met?"asked Spike.

The Manticore let out a big roar, which startled Flare and Spike. Then it took Fluttershy and started licking her.

"Wow. Does Fluttershy taste that good?" asked Spike.

"It's kissing her, dum dum." said Flare.

"Me not dum dum, you dum dum. You bring me, gum gum." said Spike,

"How did you know about the thorn?" asked Twilight.

"I didn't. Sometimes we all just need to be shown a little kindness." said Fluttershy.

"Yeah show a little more kindness, bro!" said Spike.

"Tell that to your mom." said Flare. Then they all walk over to the rough river where the sea serpent was sobbing.

"Excuse me, sir. Why are you crying?" asked Twilight.

"Well, I don't know. I was just sitting here, minding my own business, when this tacky little cloud of purple smoke just whisked past me and tore half of my beloved mustache clean off, and now I look simply horrid." said the serpent as a wave of tears falls from his eyes and lands on the ponies.

"Oh give me a break." said Dash.

"That's what all the fuss is about?" asked AppleJack.

"Why, of course it is. How can you be so insensitive? Oh, just look at him. Such lovely luminescent scales." said Rarity.

"Hey look at Dash's tail. It's missing the green and yellow." said Spike.

"Yeah. Missing the mashed potatoes and the spinich to go with the tomato soup, orange juice, and purple jell-o." said Flare.

"Oh it's so true!" said the serpent.

"All ruined without your beautiful mustache." said Rarity.

"It's true, I'm hideous!" said the serpent.

"LOL! Just listen to this guy." said Flare.

Rarity takes out one of the Serpents tails. "OW! What did you do that for?" he asked.

"Rarity, what are you..." asked Twilight as Rarity cuts off her tail and the Serpent faints. Then wakes up and sees his new mustache.

"Oh-hohohoho! My mustache. How wonderful." cried the serpent in joy.

"You look smashing!" said Rarity.

"Oh did you see that twist there, brah?" asked Flare. "When Rarity took out the scale, everypony thought she killed him by stabbing him with it. But she just cut off her tail and gave it to the serpent."

"Wow, Rarity is more generous than I thought." said Spike. "But she still looks beautiful!"

"Your mom looks beautiful." said Flare.

"Will you quit it with those jokes?" asked Spike.

"We can cross now. Let's go. Ah!" said Twilight.

"Allow me." said the serpent, putting his body in the water as a path so the Mane 6 can go to the other side. The serpent lifts himself back up and waves at them. "Thank you so much! I wish you all fantastic luck in your journey!"

"Sup brah?" asked Flare.

"Oh hello there!" said the Serpent. "You're with them?"

"Sure let's go with that." said Flare with a wink.

"Want me to let you cross?" asked the Serpent.

"Please! Anything for a friend of Rarity's!" said Spike.

"So her name was Rarity?" asked the serpent. "Well I'm sure she'll be a fabulous fashion designer one day."

"Oh she already is." said Spike.

"Oh really? Wonderful!" said the Serpent. "Please do be careful though."

"Thanks, brah! Smiley face." said Flare. The Serpent goes back into his bridge position and let's them cross.

"There it is, the ruin that holds The Elements of Harmony. We made it." said Twilight.

"Twilight, wait for us." said AppleJack.

"We're almost there." said Twilight. "Whoa!" Twilight almost fell off a cliff, where a bridge was suppose to be, but it's broken.

"What's with you and falling off cliffs today?" teased Rainbow.

"Now what?" asked Pinkie.

Rainbow Dash starts flying. "Duh." she said, then she flies over to the other side so she can fix the bridge.

"Are you sure we can trust Rainbow with something like this?" asked Rarity.

"Of course we can silly! Dash won't let us down!" said Pinkie.

Spike takes out a chocolate bar and eats it.

"Hey save some of me!" said Flare. Then Spike takes a piece of chocolate and gives it to Flare, then he eats it. "Where did you get that anyway?"

"I saved it for when I was hungry." said Spike. Then they were both silent as they watched and waited for Rainbow Dash to return with the bridge. Then she came back and put the bridge into place.

"See? I'd never leave my friends hangin'." Dash said. So the Mane 6 cross the bridge to the other side.

"It took Dash a while to fix that bridge, don't ya think?" asked Spike. Then they both walk across the bridge while they're not looking, and then the Mane 6 walk inside the castle ruins, along with Flare and Spike just peeking from outside the door.

"Whoa. Come on, Twilight. Isn't this what you've been waitin' for?" asked AppleJack.

"The Elements of Harmony, we've found them. Careful, careful!" said Twilight as they all take a stone which holds an element.

Flare then takes out the microwave and puts his hot pocket in it.

"One, two, three, four... there's only five." said Pinkie.

"No there isn't. You don't see that sixth one in the back? Go back to school Pinkie." said Spike.

"The book said: when the five are present, a spark will cause the sixth Element to be revealed." said Twilight.

"Alright." whispered Flare. "The microwave is ready. Once they get started on defeating Nightmare Moon, we'll throw in the plug. We'll power up this thing and get the hay outta here!"

"I'm not sure, but I have an idea. Stand back. I don't know what will happen." Twilight said while activating the elements.

"Come on now, y'all. She needs to concentrate." said AppleJack.

"Oh for Wizard of Hope's sake, here they come!" whispered Flare, then him and Spike ran behind the wall before the others can see them.

"How are we suppose to get home without getting a good distance?" asked Spike.

"Just be patient." said Flare. "Nightmare Moon is nowhere in sight yet, so we still have time."

"Aaah!" cried Twilight.

"Twilight!" the Mane 6 cried running inside the temple.

"That's the signal! Let's get going, dawg!" said Flare, then they both ran outside the temple door again and was about to throw the plug inside, but Twilight just disappears outta mid-air.

"Whoa!" cried Spike. "Where did she go?"

"Over there! At that other temple!" cried Flare. "Hop on, bro!" Spike hops on Flare's back and Flare stands on his hind legs, about to charge. "FOR GREAT EQUESTRIA!" he cried, then he ran to the glowing temple over a hill.

Flare hops on top of the temple where Twilight was trying to charge up the elements, but then they back fired and Twilight flew back. Then Luna destroyed the elements before she can use them to defeat her.

"Twilight, no!" cried Spike. "Did we create a time paradox?"

"No, I think that's suppose to happen." said Flare. "Just keep holding on to that microwave. I'll try to use my horn as a rod to lure the element magic over here, and we can go home. Then when the time comes, just press 2 minutes and 30 seconds."

"How would you know that we won't go back further in time?" asked Spike.

"Because, the little spinner in the microwave is going the opposite direction." said Flare. "Since the spinner in my microwave at home goes counter-clockwise, therefore we go back in time. But this one goes clockwise, which means we should go forward!"

"How do you know this would work?" asked Spike.

"I don't." said Flare. "It's just a guess. I have no idea if this will certainly work. But it's a risk we're going to have to take."

So, Twilight finds her friends coming into the temple along with her, and after her speech of telling Nightmare Moon about her friends being the elements, the sixth element appears, and a big glow appears.

"THAT'S THE SIGNAL!" cried Flare. Flare activates is horn and lures some of the magic power over to him, and then he touches the plug. The microwave gets powered, then Spike presses two minutes and thirdy seconds on the microwave, then the microwave activates. The microwave starts glowing, but then the power back fires and they both fall off the wall and land outside the castle. The elements power suddenly goes away. Flare and Spike both past out.

A few minutes later, they both woke up. "Did it work? Are we home?" asked Spike.

"I dunno. Same location." said Flare. "But that's what happened when we went back in time, my trailer was in front of Sugarcube Corner, and we ended up in a different time but same location."

"How do we know that we're home?" asked Spike. They both climbed up the wall again and found the Mane 6, and Princess Celestia and Luna having a heart-to-heart conversation.

"Sad face." said Flare. "It didn't work."

"Told you it wouldn't work." said Spike.

"No you didn't!" said Flare. "I can't believe it! All this work for nothing!"

"I'm so sorry!" Luna cried, hugging her sister. "I missed you so much, big sister!"

"I've missed you too!" said Celestia.

"Hey look at Celestia. She looks like a swan." said Spike.

"Hey, you know what this calls for?" asked Pinkie. "A PARTY! C'mon let's head home!"

The Mane 6 all cheered and ran out the door. Flare then lost his balance and fell inside the castle from the wall, along with Spike. Celestia and Luna look at them.

"Wow, this is some humpty dumpty story, huh brah? Where's the king's horses or men?" teased Flare. "LOLOLOLOL!"

"Uh oh. Dude?" Spike said to Flare.

"Hello, Spike! Helo Flare Gun!" said Celestia.

"This is not what it looks like!" cried Flare.

"Enjoying your time travel?" asked Celestia.

"Oh yes we are! Thank you princess!" said Spike.

"Wait, how did you know we were time traveling?" asked Flare.

Celestia giggled and said, "No need to question your princess... bro." she winked.

"LOL Trollestia strikes again." said Flare. "We didn't change time at all did we?"

"Of course not!" said Celestia. "This all happened already. It seems I have met you, before I met you!"

"Yo dawg! I heard you like meeting." said Spike.

"Thanks Princess!" said Flare. "But how do we get home? The microwave got destroyed, along with my breakfast."

"I'm a princess, a very powerful one." said Celestia. "I can take you home in a snap!"

"But you don't have any fingers." said Flare.

"Want me to send you to the moon?" Celestia asked with a glare.

"Sorry, I'll be good." said Flare.

"So what do you say? Want me to send you back to your own times?" asked Celestia.

"Yes, plox!" said Flare.

"Yes I do! I'm in the mood for some Diablo 3." said Spike.

"Well before I do, how about you join us in Pinkie Pie's party?" asked Celestia.

"But nopony knows of our existance. And Spike might be there." said Flare.

"Well you wouldn't last that long without these!" said Celestia holding two boxes.

"Our box disguises!" cried Spike.

"You don't say?" Flare said to him sarcasticly.

"Will you join us?" asked Luna.

Flare and Spike started to think, while Flare turned on the Jeopardy theme song on his Ipod.

As the song ends, Flare says; "You pick, brah."

"Alright, I say no." said Spike.

"Why not?" asked Flare.

"I been to that party before. I ate too much and got sick." said Spike.

"But I want to go!" whinned Flare.

"Okay. You go, I'm going home." said Spike.

"Are you sure?" asked Flare.

"I'll play Diablo 3 until you get back." said Spike.

"Hey, if that's the case, I'll be back in the next five seconds you leave." said Flare.

"Oh, ha ha very funny." said Spike. "Your highness, please send me home."

Celestia's horn glows and Spike gets teleported away. Then Flare, Celestia, and Luna head back to Ponyville for Pinkie's party. Flare wears his box disguise.

"Hey, hey everypony! Guess who's back!" cried Flare.

"Box number one! You were with them?" asked Wind Whistler.

"Sure let's go with that!" said Flare.

"Where's Box number two?" asked Carrot Top.

"He had to return home. You'll see him again." said Flare. "So you ladies wanna hear the story on how I redone AppleJack's kitchen?"

Hours went by, and the party was over. Flare in his box disguise was just about to say good-bye.

"So, box number one. You're ready to go?" asked Celestia.

"Do you really have to go?" asked Parasol.

"I wish I can stay, but I have to go." said Flare. "Don't worry, you'll see me again in two years, without this box. Winkey face."
"Goodbye, Box number one! Bye!" the ladies said. Then Celestia takes Flare in a hiding spot so she can take Flare back.

"You ready, Flare Gun?" asked Celestia.

"Ready as spaghetti!" said Flare.

Then Celestia activates her horn and takes Flare back to his own time. Flare heads into town square and sees Carrot Top, Parasol, and Wind Whistler.

"Oh hey, Flare!" said Parasol.

"You mean, box number one?" asked Flare.

"No I mean Flare. How do you know about Box number one?" asked Parasol.

"I am him, baby!" said Flare. Then he puts on his box disguise. "Box number one is number one! LOLOLOLOLOL! And Spike was actually box number two!"

"So you're box number one?" asked Wind Whistler. "I thought there was something familiar about you."

"Now let me tell you girls the story on how Spike and I went back in time to see the Summer Sun Celebration, and how we were there to witness the defeat of Nightmare Moon!" said Flare.
