Previously on princess Rainbow Dash:

"You're here to... to..." Rainbow stuttered

" Remember this day, little ponies, for it was your last. From this moment forth, the night will last forever! " Declared Nightmare Moon

---

Nightmare moon laughing evilly.

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

Both the guards and Rainbow Dash immediately charged her , only to be blasted in to the crowed, Nightmare Moon who quickly changed into raw magic fled out of the hall . Rainbow who as a alicorn is more durable then regular ponies immediately chased after her.

"Come back here! *pants*Nighttime? Forever? Where's she going?" Rainbow yelled as the last shadow of the nightmare moon fled.

Later they had all convened in the library.

"Uh... We gotta stop Nightmare!..." Spike yelled in his sleep exhausted from the days events.

You've been up all night, Spike. You are a baby dragon after all. Elements, elements, elements... Ugh! How can we stop Nightmare Moon without the Elements of Harmony?" Twilight said as she tore up the library looking for a book to help them rainbow barley restraining herself from doing the same instead comforting scootaloo who was sleeping in her wing.

"I don't get it if Rainbow is he princess why doesn't she just bring up the sun herself" Applejack questioned.

"sigh...because though I am a alicorn and a princess I'm not as powerful as mom right now if I tried to raise the sun it would kill me from magical exhaustion first." Rainbow explained having asked her mother before why she couldn't raise the sun" Besides I'm not in tuned with the sun anyway so it would be even more exhausting".

"What do you mean 'in tuned' darling " asked rarity.

Rainbow Dash sighed again while nuzzling scootaloo" each royal has a ... affinity for something like my mom has the sun , princess cadence has love, etc. when a alicorn try's to deal with something that's not their affinity is sucks up even more of our magic. "

they all nodded their understanding.

"so what's your affinity Dash" asked AJ.

"Don't know yet but I hope I will soon ... its suppose to be self discovery and all that" Rainbow shrugged as she got up to aid twilight in her search after she had tucked scootaloo in twilight bed .

" 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!" Twilight stressed

"The Elements of Harmony: A Reference Guide"Pinkie chimed in.

"How did you find that?!"Asked twilight and rainbow dash.

"It was under "E" !"pinkie sing-songed

Twilight quickly took the book and strated to read.

"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-"Twilight trailed off.

---

"The Everfree Forest!" they all yelled.

"Whee! Let's go!"squeeled pinkie

" Not so fast. Look, I appreciate the offer, but I think its best if only me and rainbow go." stated Twilight

" No can do, sugarcube. We sure ain't lettin' any friends of ours go into that creepy place alone. We're stickin' to you like caramel on a candy apple.

Every pony agreed

"We'll need all the help we can get" whispered Rainbow dash.

Twilight just sighed at this.

Especially if there's candy apples in there. What? Those things are good." Said the ever joyful pinkie pie.

" So, none of you have been in here before?" asked Twilight asked as they walked through the forest.

"Ugh, Heavens no! Just look at it - it's dreadful." Said rarity

" And it ain't natural. Folk say it don't work the same as Equestria."Apple jack muttered

" What's that supposed to mean?" Asked Rainbow

"Nopony knows. You know why? "Said pinkie in a slightly scary voice.

"Pinkie, quit it." said Apple Jack

'cause every pony who's ever come in, has never come out "shouted Pinkie Before the ground gave out under them.

Reacting quickly rainbow shouts " Fluttershy! Quick!" as she dives down

"Oh my goodness, oh my goodness."Fluttershy stutters

They managed to catch pinkie and rarity but unfortunately both Apple jack and twilight we still sliding down.

After sliding some Apple Jack managed to grab on to a root to stop form sliding more , but twilight still slid until she was half way off the cliff.

"Hold on! I'm a-comin'!" yelled AJ as she made her way down to twilight.

" Applejack! What do I do?" Asked twilight.

After looking up quickly said" Let go."

"Are you crazy?" Twilight screamed

" No I ain't. I promise you'll be safe. "Apple jack tried to reason

Not convinced twilight shout "That's not true!"

Apple jack once again said " Now listen here. What I'm sayin' to you is the honest truth. Let go, and you'll be safe."

"Yaaah! Phew-wah!" Screamed twilight until she was suddenly caught by Rainbow and Fluttershy

" Sorry girls. I'm not used to holding anything more than a bunny or two." Fluttershy said after she loosened her grip a bit.

" And once Pinkie and Rarity were saved, whoosh... Me and Fluttershy loop-de-loop around and WHAM! Caught you right in the nick of time. "Bragged Rainbow Dash

" Yes, Rainbow, I was there, and I'm very grateful, but we gotta- *gasp* A manticore!"Twilight shouted

The manticore roared seeing the ponies.

" We've gotta get past him! "shouted twilight.

"Take that, you ruffian!"fter screamed rarity kicking the beast after it took a swing at her.

ROAR!

"My hair! Woop-"Rarity screamed in fright after being roared at.

" Wait."whisped fluttershy

ROAR

"YEE-HAW! Git along, little dogie."Said apple jack as she tried to bull rid the beast.

"Wait."Fluttershy once again says alittle loader this time

ROAR

" Whoa! All yours, partner"says apple jack as she flies past rainbow after being thrown off.

" I'm on it" saluted rain bow as she started flying at super speeds around the manticore

"Wait" says fluttershy

ROAR

Rainbow Dash screams as she was hit towards the others

"Rainbow!" yelled Twilight horrified that her friend ad princess had been hurt.

The manticore grunted as he awaited his next challenger

Twilight snorted and pawed the ground with the others ready to charge all at once to take him down.

"WAIT!" Yelled fluttershy as she made her way to the beast.

ROAR

" Shhh... It's okay. Oh, you poor, poor little baby. "Fluttershy comforted when the manticore then showed her its paw that had a thorn in it.

" Little?" questioned Rainbow Dash

" Now this might hurt for just a second." Said flutter shy.

ROAR!

"Fluttershy!" screams everypony

" [giggles] Aw you're just a little ol' baby kitty, aren't you? Yes you are, yes you are." Cooed Fluttershy

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

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

Rainbow Dash smiled at this.

They continued to walk deeper in to forest.

" No. My eyes need a rest from all this icky muck."Rarity complained"

Well, I didn't mean that literally." she added after the lights went out.

" That ancient ruin could be right in front of our faces and we wouldn't even know it." Grinded out twilight

I didn't see you there, my apologies.

Right here... guh...

Oh wait, I think I stepped in somethin'.

They said as the stumbled around in the dark

Flutter shy scrams.

" It's just mud." Apple jack says to calm her

Trees growl

" Aah!" Screams AJ

They all continued to scream until they heard some thing.

"Hahahaha heheheh" laughed pinkie

" Huh?" the all said confused

Pinkie Pie continued making funny noises" Bleh. Ooo! *funny noises* haha"

" Pinkie, what are you doing?! Run!" asked a scared twilight.

" Oh girls, don't you see?"asked pinkie

"When I was a little filly and the sun was going down..."sung pinkie

" Tell me she's not..."gowned twilight

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

" She is." said rarity

"I'd hide under my pillowFrom what I thought I sawBut Granny Pie said that wasn't the wayTo deal with fears at all"

" Then what is? "asked rainbow

"She said: "Pinkie, you gotta stand up tallLearn to face your fearsYou'll see that they can't hurt youJust laugh to make them disappear."Ha! Ha! Ha!they gasped when they saw the scary figure , giggle at the ghostlyGuffaw at the grosslyCrack up at the creepyWhoop it up with the weepyChortle at the kookySnortle at the spooky

They all laughed a the perspective tree.

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... hahahaha... heh...Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaauuugh!

They all laughed.
