"Gaz, wait!" Nikki cried, rushing after the purple unicorn.

"What?" She growled.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going back to Fillydelphia, to be with my dad." She said gruffly. "I don't know what's wrong with these ponies, but I can't seem to make them laugh." A pig squeal is heard from her bag. Gaz kicks it and it fell silent.

"Before you go, I was wondering if you might be willing to help Zee. She's doing HORRIBLE at her video games.

"But... I don't really know anything about video games." Gaz said, opening one of her eyes.

"But you do know something about Zee." Keegz said, popping from behind Nikki's head.

"Yeah, she's annoying, friendly, and too stupid for her own good." Gaz sneered. Under her breath, she muttered, "and my friend..."

Nikki, Zin, Keegz and the SIR twins looked at each other excitedly.

They found Zee huddled under a tree, her eyes puffy as she struggled to play. The GameSlave kept slipping from her hooves as she pressed it's buttons. Gaz walked up to her and snatched away the Game. She began playing using her magic.

"See, it's easy." She growled. "All you have to do is learn the combos, defeat the pigs, and collect treasure." She showed Zee the beaten game. "See, it was easy." Gaz froze, looking at the Game. "I... I beat the game..."

The SIR twins clicked the necklace around her neck, and Gaz's eyes went strangely blank, and her flank sparkled. The taco disappeared, and was replaced by a skull and game console. Gaz regained focus, shrugged, and began to play again.

"Gaz, look! Your cutie mark! It worked! It worked! Oh, I'm so happy you're back to normal! Now we need your help!" Nikki beamed, hugging her.

"Are you touching me?" She said softly. Nikki released her immediately.

"A True, True Friend helps a friend in need," Keegz said, smiling at Gaz.

"A friend will be there to help them see," Nikki said, putting her arm around Gaz's shoulder.

"A True, True Friend helps a friend in need," They sang, and Gaz allowed herself a small smile.

"To see the light that shines from a True, True Friend." She muttered.

"Why does Gaz have my Mark?" Zee asked, confused.

"Dib needs your help," GiGi popped up next to Zee

He's trying hard, doing what he can," MiRR popped up on her other side. They led her to town, where Dib was trying to calm a screaming filly and paint a house.

"Would you try, just give it a chance," Nikki said, shoving Zee over to him. She cocked her head to the side.

"You might find, that you'll start to understand," Keegz called, and Zee grinned. She snatched the filly from Dib's arm, and placed it on her back.

"A True, True Friend helps a friend in need,

A friend will be there to help you see,

A True, True Friend helps a friend in need

To see the light that shines from a True, True Friend" Nikki, Keegz, Zin and the SIR twins said as Zee, grabbing the brush, zoomed through the air, completely painting the house and entertaining the filly. She squealed as she soared through the air. As Zee began to drive away the litter from the street with her wings, the SIR twins attached the necklace to her neck. Her eyes because blank and she dropped from the air. Keegz caught the filly and turned to Zee. She stood up shakily and looked at her flank. Three blue hearts twinkled at her.

"Uh, what just happened?" Zee asked.

"There's no time to explain, but we need your help. Zim is part of the Eyeball!" Zin said anxiously,

"Say no more!" Zee smirked, and turned to a confused Dib.

"Zimmy needs your help," She said, guiding him to Zim's house.

"He's trying hard, doing what he can,"

She opened the door to reveal Zim, struggling over a Plookesian, close to tears.

"Would you try, just give it a chance," Zee said, shoving Dib over to him. "You might find, that you'll start to understand,"

"A True, True Friend helps a friend in need

A friend will be there to help them see

A True, True Friend helps a friend in need

To see the light that shines from a True, True Friend." Nikki, Zee, Gaz, Zin and the SIR twins sang as Dib shoved Zim out of the way. He tore down the horrible pictures and began sketching an Irken. Next he did a ghost, then he began to take pictures of the aliens rapidly. He grinned excitedly, then the SIR twins clicked the necklace around his neck. He collapsed on his table, and stood up, groaning, his magnifying glass Cutie Mark visible in the dim light.

"Ow, what a terrible dream I had. Or, maybe I'm still having it." He said, glaring at a confused Zim.

"Dib, GIR is trying to invade Ponyville using chickens!" GiGi screamed in his ear. "We need Zimmy's help!"

Wincing, Dib dragged a protesting Zim by the collar, saying "GIR is in trouble,"

"We need to get there by his side," Zee said when they found the small pegasus shivering on a cloud.

"We can try to do what we can now," Gaz said, throwing him to the chickens.

"For together we can be his guide," the SIR twins sang, zooming overhead.

"A True, True Friend helps a friend in need

A friend will be there to help them see

A True, True Friend helps a friend in need

To see the light that shines from a True, True Friend," Gaz, Zee, Dib and Zin sang as Zim growled at the chickens. Nikki handed him a laser gun and he flew upward. Resting on a cloud, he began firing wildly, creating roast chicken. He began chuckling to himself. The SIR twins plunked the necklace around his neck and his eyes went blank. His magnifying glass vanished and was replaced by the Irken symbol. He rose into the air, laughing like a maniac.

"I AM ZIM!"

Zee squealed and flew up to kiss him. Puzzling together, they flew down to their cheering friends.

"Now that's more like it. What's next?" Zim asked, his usual smirk on his face.

"The townspeople are furious. We need the old GIR back." Nikki said turning to a confused Pegasus.

"I'm on it. I know just the thing." Zim cried scooping GIR up and galloping to town.

"The townspeople need you they've been sad for a while," Zim said, pointing to miserable ponies. "Personally I like it..."

"They march around face a frown and never seem to smile," Keegz said over Zim.

"And if you feel like helping we'd appreciate a lot," Zee smiled and GiGi and MiRR looked excited.

"If you'd get up there and spread some cheer from here to Canterlot!" Zim said, bucking GIR off. GiGi clicked the necklace into place and her father's taco Mark twinkled on his flank.

"Come on ponies, I wanna see you SMILE!" GIR cried, grinning widely.

"GIR!" The crowd choruses.

"A True, True Friend helps a friend in need," the crowd and aliens cried.

"A friend will be there to help them see,

A True, True Friend helps a friend in need," The SIR twins zoomed overhead, their silver wings a blur.

"To see the light," Zee sang, nuzzling Zim.

"To see the light" the crowd repeated.

"That shines," Zim said reluctantly, a small smile crawling up his face.

"That shines," the SIR twins called.

"From a True, True Friend!" Zee, Zim, Dib, Gaz, Zin, Keegz, Nikki, GIR, and the SIR twins hugged, Dib and Zim squashed against each other. They struggled for moment, until Zim patted his head awkwardly. The corner of Dib's mouth twitched and they stopped squirming. Then MiRR squished Dib's face, shrieking "FWENDSIP!"
