[Previously on My Little Pony: FiM Alternative Universe]

Sunset Shimmer: "Elements of Harmony, see 'Mare in the Sun'"?

Garble: But that's just an old ponies' tale.

Sunset Shimmer: She will bring about drought eternal!

Sunset Shimmer: It's imperative that the princess is told right away.

Garble: [burps]

Sunset Shimmer: I knew she would wanna take immediate action.

Garble: My dear Sunset, there is more to a young pony's life than studying. Make some friends!

Lemon Zest: [prolonged gasp]

Sunset Shimmer: All the ponies in this town are crazy!

Sunset Shimmer: I hope the Princess was right.

Sunny Flare: She's gone!

Sunset Shimmer: Oh no. Daybreaker!

Daybreaker: [evil laugh]

[theme song]

Daybreaker: [evil laugh]

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

Daybreaker: Stand back, you foals! [laughs]

[screaming]

Sugarcoat: Ergh...

Indigo Zap: Come back here! [pants] Daylight? Forever? Where's she going?

Sugarcoat: Uh... We gotta stop Daybreaker!...

Sunset Shimmer: You've been up all night, Garble. You are a baby dragon after all. Elements, elements, elements... Ugh! How can I stop Daybreaker without the Elements of Harmony?

Indigo Zap: And just what are the Elements of Harmony? And how did you know about Daybreaker, huh? Are you a spy? Whoa!

Sugarcoat: Calm down, mate. She is no spy. But she sure knows what's going on. Don't you, Sunset?

Sunset Shimmer: I read all about the prediction of Daybreaker. 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!

Lemon Zest: "The Elements of Harmony: A Reference Guide."

Sunset Shimmer: How did you find that?!

Lemon Zest: It was under "E", Sunset.

Sunset Shimmer: 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--

Everypony: The Everfree Forest!

[spooky music]

Lemon Zest: Alright! Everfree, here we go!

Sunset Shimmer: Not so fast. Look, I appreciate the offer, but I'd really rather do this on my own.

Sugarcoat: No one can do, mate. We sure ain't lettin' any friend of ours go into that creepy place alone. We're stickin' to you like cherry on a sundae.

Everypony: [agreed hmph]

Lemon Zest: Especially if there's lemon trees in there. What? Those things are good.

Sunset Shimmer: [sigh]

Sunset Shimmer: So, none of you have been in here before?

Sunny Flare: Ugh, heavens no! Just look at it - it's dreadful.

Sugarcoat: And it ain't natural. Folks say it don't work the same as Equestria.

Sunset Shimmer: What's that supposed to mean, though? Sounds mysterious.

Indigo Zap: Nopony knows. You know why?

Sugarcoat: Indigo, quit it.

Indigo Zap: 'cause everypony who's ever come in has never come out!

[crash]

[scream]

Indigo Zap: Sour Sweet! Quick!

Sour Sweet: Oh my goodness, oh my goodness!

Sunny Flare: [screams]

Sunset Shimmer: [screams]

Sugarcoat: Hold on! I'm coming for you!

Sunset Shimmer: Sugarcoat! What do I do?

Sugarcoat: Let go.

Sunset Shimmer: Are you out of your mind?! That plan is completely suicidal!

Sugarcoat: No it's not. I promise you'll be safe.

Sunset Shimmer: That's not true!

Sugarcoat: Now listen here. What I'm sayin' to you is the honest truth. Let go, and you'll be safe.

Sunset Shimmer: Yaaah! Phew-wah!

Sour Sweet: Sorry girls. I'm not used to holding anything more than several butterflies.

[animal roar]

Indigo Zap: And once Lemon and Sunny were saved, whoosh... Me and Sunny loop-de-loop around and WHAM! Caught you right in the nick of time.

Sunset Shimmer: Yes, Indigo, I was there, and I'm very grateful, but we gotta- [gasp] A manticore!

Manny Roar: [roar]

Sunset Shimmer: We've gotta get past him!

Sunny Flare: Take that, you ruffian!

Manny Roar: [roar]

Sunny Flare: My hair! Woop--

Sour Sweet: Wait.

Manny Roar: [roar]

Sugarcoat: Keelhauled! Calm down, little beast.

Sour Sweet: Wait.

Manny Roar: [roars]

Sugarcoat: Whoa! All yours, partner.

Indigo Zap: I'm on it.

Sour Sweer: Wait!

Manny Roar: [roars]

Indigo Zap: [screams]

Sunset Shimmer: Indigo!

Manny Roar: [grunt]

Sunset Shimmer: [snorts]

Sour Sweet: WAIT!

Manny Roar: [roar]

Sour Sweet: Shhh... It's okay, mister. Oh, you poor, poor little baby.

Indigo Zap: Little? Are you nuts?

Sour Sweet: Now this might hurt for just a second.

Manny Roar: [roar]

Everypony: Sour Sweet!

Manny Roar: [purrs]

Sour Sweet: [giggles] Aw you're just a little ol' butterfly, aren't you? You are an interesting lad.

Sunset Shimmer: How did you know about the thorn?

Sour Sweet: I didn't. Sometimes we all just need to be shown a little kindness. Assertiveness would cause the opposite effect.

Sunny Flare: No. My eyes need a rest from all this icky muck. Well, I didn't mean that literally.

Sunset Shimmer: That ancient ruin could be right in front of our faces and we wouldn't even know it.

Sunny Flare: I didn't see you there, my apologies.

Indigo Zap: Right here... guh...

Sugarcoat: Oh wait, I think I stepped in something suspicious.

Sour Sweet: [scream]

Sugarcoat: It's just mud.

[tree growls]

Sugarcoat: Aah!

[trees growling]

[screams]

[screams]

Lemon Zest: [laughter]

Everypony: Huh?

Lemon Zest: [laughter] Bleh. Ooo! [funny noises] [laughter]

Sunset Shimmer: Lemon, what are you doing?! Run! Don't be too cocky about it!

Lemon Zest: Oh girls, don't you see?

[Lemon Zest]

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

Sunset Shimmer: Tell me she's not...

[Lemon Zest]

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

Sunny Flare: She is. She needs to go to a doctor.

[Lemon Zest]

I'd hide under my pillow

From what I thought I saw

But Granny Zest said that wasn't the way

To deal with fears at all

Indigo Zap: Then what is?

[Lemon Zest]

She said, "Lemon, 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!

Ponies: [gasp]

[Lemon Zest]

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... hahahaha... heh...

Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaauuuugh!

[laughs]

Lemon Zest: How are we gonna cross this?

[distant cry]

Lemon Zest: Huh?

Steven Magnet: [sobbing] What a world, what a world.

Sunset Shimmer: Excuse me, sir. Why are you crying?

Steven Magnet: Well, I don't know. I was just sitting here, minding my own business, when this tacky little cloud of white smoke just whisked past me and tore half of my beloved mustache clean off, and now I look simply horrid. [wails]

Sunny Flare: Oh, give me a break.

Sugarcoat: That's what all the fuss is about?

Sunny Flare: Why, of course it is. How can you be so insensitive? Oh, just look at him. Such lovely luminescent scales.

Steven Magnet: [sniffs] I know.

Sugarcoat: And your expertly coiffed mane.

Steven Magnet: Oh, I know, I know.

Sunny Flare: Your fabulous manicure.

Steven Magnet: [gasp] It's so true!

Sunny Flare: All ruined without your beautiful mustache.

Steven Magnet: It's true, I'm hideous!

Sunny Flare: I simply cannot let such a crime against fabulosity go uncorrected.

Steven Magnet: [yelp] What did you do that for?

Sunset Shimmer: Sunny, what are you-

Steven Magnet: [moans] Oh-hohohoho! My mustache. How wonderful.

Sunny Flare: You look smashing. Not just me workin' at a café!

Sunset Shimmer: Oh, Sunny, your beautiful tail...

Sunny Flare: Oh. It's fine, my dear. Short tails are in this season. Besides, it'll grow back.

Indigo Zap: So would the mustache.

Sunset Shimmer: [gasp] We can cross now. Let's go. Ah!

Steven Magnet: Allow me.

Sunset Shimmer: There it is, the ruin that holds The Elements of Harmony. We made it!

Sugarcoat: Sunset, wait for us!

Sunset Shimmer: We're almost there. Whoa!

Indigo Zap: What's with you and falling off cliffs today?

Lemon Zest: [sighs] Now what?

Indigo Zap: Duh.

Lemon Zest: Oh yeah.

Wonderbolt Leader: Indigo...

Indigo Zap: Who's there?

Wonderbolt Leader: I'm Spitfire. Indigo...

Indigo Zap: I ain't scared of you! Show yourself!

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

Indigo Zap: Who?

Spitifire: Why, you, of course. Stop playing the pretending game.

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

Spitfire: No, Indigo Zap. We want you to join us, The Womderbolts. We're the greatest aerial team in the Everfree Forest, and soon we will be the greatest in all Equestria, but first, we need a captain. The most magnificent-

Indigo Zap: Yep.

Spitfire: Swiftest-

Indigo Zap: Yes.

Spitfire: Bravest flyer in all the land.

Indigo Zap: Yes, [chuckle] it's all true.

Spitfire: We need... you.

Indigo Zap: WOOHOO! Sign me up. Just let me tie this bridge real quick and then we have a deal.

Spitfire: No! It's them or us.

Sunset Shimmer: Indigo Zap, what's taking so long? Oh no. Indigo Zap! Don't listen to them.

Spitfire: Well?

Indigo Zap: You... Thank you! For the offer, I mean, but I'm afraid I have to say no.

[ponies cheering]

Indigo Zap: See? I'd never leave my friends hangin'.

Sunset Shimmer: Whoa.

Sugarcoat: Come on, Sunset. Isn't this what you've been waitin' for?

Sunset Shimmer: The Elements of Harmony, we've found them. Careful, careful!

Lemon Zest: One, two, three, four... There's only five!

Indigo Zap: Where's the sixth?

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

Sugarcoat: What does it suppose to mean?

Sunset Shimmer: I'm not sure, but I have an idea. Stand back. I don't know what will happen.

Sugarcoat: Come on now, y'all. She needs to concentrate.

Sunset Shimmer: Aah!

Everypony: Sunset!

Sunset Shimmer: The Elements!

[All five ponies talking over each other: Sour Sweet: Sunset? Sugarcoat: What? Sunny Flare: Where did she go? Lemon Zest: What happened? Indigo Zap: What's going on?]

Sugarcoat: Sunset, where are you?

Sunny Flare: Look!

Sugarcoat: Come on!

Sunset Shimmer: [coughs, gasps]

Daybreaker: [evil laugh]

Sunset Shimmer: [gasp] Hmph!

Daybreaker: You're kidding. You're kidding, right?

Sunset Shimmer: [groan] Just one spark. Come on, come on. Aah!

Daybreaker: No, no!

Sunset Shimmer: [gasp] But... where's the sixth Element?!

Daybreaker: [laughter] You little foal! Thinking you could defeat me? Now you will never see your princess, or your lovely moon! This violent sunlight will last forever! [evil laugh]

[All five ponies talking over each other: Lemon Zest: Don't worry Twilight, we're here. Sugarcoat: Don't worry, we'll be there.]

Sunset Shimmer: [gasp] You think you can destroy The Elements of Harmony just like that? Ridiculous. You're wrong, because the spirits of The Elements of Harmony are right here.

Daybreaker: What?

Sunset Shimmer: Sugarcoat, who reassured me when I was in doubt, represents the spirit of... honesty!

Sunset Shimmer: Sour Sweet, who tamed the manticore with her compassion, represents the spirit of... kindness!

Sunset Shimmer: Lemon Zest, who banished fear by giggling in the face of danger, represents the spirit of... laughter!

Sunset Shimmer: Sunny Flare, who calmed a sorrowful serpent with a meaningful gift represents the spirit of... generosity!

Sunset Shimmer: And Indigo Zap, who could not abandon her friends for her own heart's desire represents the spirit of... loyalty!

Sunset Shimmer: The spirits of these five ponies got us through every challenge you threw at us.

Daybreaker: You still don't have the sixth Element! The spark didn't work!

Sunset Shimmer: But it did! A different kind of spark. I felt it the very moment I realized how happy I was to hear you, to see you, how much I cared about you. The spark ignited inside me when I realized that you all... are my friends! You see, Daybreaker, 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!

Daybreaker: Nooo! Nooo!

Indigo Zap: Ugh, my head.

Sugarcoat: Everypony okay?

Sunny Flare: Oh, thank goodness.

Sour Sweet: Why Rarity, it's just as lovely!

Sunmy Flare: I know! I'll never part with it again.

Sour Sweet: No. Your necklace. It looks just like your cutie mark.

Sunny Flare: What? Ooh. So does yours.

Sour Sweer: [gasp]

Lemon Zest: Look at mine! Look at mine!

Indigo Zap: Aw yeah.

Sugarcoat: Gee, Twilight! I thought you were just spouting nonsense blabber, but I reckon we really do represent the elements of friendship.

Princess Luna: Indeed you do.

Sunset Shimmee: [gasps] Princess Luna.

Princess Luna: Sunset Shimmer, my faithful student. I knew you could do it.

Sunset Shimmer: But... you told me it was all an old pony tale.

Princess Luna: I told you that you needed to make some friends, nothing more. I saw the signs of Daybreaker's return and I knew it was you who had the magic inside to defeat her, but you could not unleash it until you let true friendship into your heart. Now if only another will as well. Princess Celestia!

Princess Celestia: [gasp]

Princess Luna: It has been a thousand years since I have seen you like this. Time to put our differences behind us. We were meant to rule together, older sister.

Sunset Shimmer and Indigo Zap: Sister?

Princess Luna: Will you accept my friendship?

Lemon Zest: Whoa! What's going on?

Princess Celestia: I'm so sorry! I missed you so much, younger sister!

Princess Luna: I've missed you, too.

Lemon Zest: [blows her nose] [sobs] Hey, you know what this calls for?

Lemon Zest: A party!

[music and cheering ponies]

Princess Luna: Why so glum, my faithful student? Are you not happy that your quest is complete and you can return to your studies in Canterlot?

Sunset Shimmer: That's just it. Just when I learned how wonderful it is to have friends, I have to leave them.

Princess Luna: Garble, take a note, please. I, Princess Luna, hereby decree that the unicorn Sunset Shimmer shall take on a new mission for Equestria. She must continue to study the magic of friendship. She must report to me her findings from her new home in Ponyville.

[ponies cheer]

Sunset Shimmer: Oh thank you, Princess Luna! I'll study harder than ever before.

[ponies cheer]

Lemon Zest: Isn't this exciting? Are you excited cause I'm excited I've never been so excited, well, except for the time that I went [deep gasp] but I mean really-

[music]
