The next morning was much more peaceful than the morning before. The sun was shining bright, the birds were happily chirping, it was going to be a start of a beautiful morning. In Sugarcoat and Sunny Flare's bedroom, they were still snoring heavily. Some of their clothes were strewn about, the sheets and pillows and blankets were spread all over their beds, and they spread their bodies out on the beds like animals.

The alarm clock went off and Sugarcoat's fist smashed it to bits. She opened an eye to see it smashed to bits, and then proceeded to get up.

"I really need to stop destroying alarm clocks." Sugarcoat replied.

Smacking her lips and yawning, she used the bathroom that they installed on the ship, picked up her clothes that had been placed on the floor onto the bed, and she put on a bathrobe. She then placed her orange glasses onto her face, and then Sunny woke up just by her feet making the floorboards creak.

"Morning Sunny." Sugarcoat said.

"Good morning dearie." Sunny said groggily.

Sunny then got her bathrobe on and they entered into the kitchen where Echo Dash was cooking eggs and bacon.

"Morning Echo. Do you know where the others are?"

"Rarity La Belle is downstairs with the help of Fluttershy in making new robes and attire for when we battle the changeling army."

"Okay well what about everyone else? Where are they?"

"Subject SS/2187 AKA Sunset Shimmer and Master Toxigo are target practicing on the upper deck. Rainbow, Pinkie, Applejack and Princess Twilight are making pancakes in the other room, and the royal sisters are alerting all of the royal guards to set up defenses here in Canterlot."

"Wait, we're here?" Sunny asked.

"I pulled the ship in over to Canterlot while you all were asleep. Right now we're hovering above Canterlot Castle."

"Well at least the trip was saved." Sugarcoat bluntly stated.

"Yes. Now if you can call up Master Toxigo and the others to alert them that their breakfast is ready, that would be helpful."

Sugarcoat and Sunny walked downstairs and entered a room to see human Rarity and Fluttershy creating new robe attire along with some skin tight outfits that got Sugar and Sunny's attention. They were black and purple colored, with streaks of yellow lightning going across some areas, along with yellow goggles mounted on head mannequins. They also had belts with little pouches that no doubt carried extra ammo with them.

Rarity then noticed them standing in the door frame.

"Oh good morning you two, I trust you had a good night's sleep?" Rarity asked.

"Yes, we did. Would those be our new suits?" Sunny asked.

Rarity nodded. "Yes, in fact Toxigo requested I make the new suits with the design ideas he gave me. They're quite fabulous."

Sugarcoat adjusted her glasses down trying to process what she had said. "Oh great, he designed them. Who wants to bet they're gonna look incredibly demeaning and only exist to make our bodies look hot?"

Fluttershy and Rarity just glared at them.

"Not that, we, believe they're um..." Sunny began, sweat running down her face. "*clears throat*, breakfast is done, that's why we came by."

Sunny and Sugarcoat just ran off to go somewhere else.

"That was very rude of you Sugarcoat." Sunny snared.

"Well its true." Sugarcoat replied.

Sunny just face palmed in annoyance.

On the deck, Toxigo was with Sunset, attempting to teach her how to use one of the weapons he designed.

"Okay, so what you want to do is, slide this part back..."

Sunset pulled a slider back on the pulse rifle she held tightly in her hands.

"Perfect. Now, do you see the little number on the side there?"

Sunset turned the gun on its side to see a little number now at 99.

"That tells you how much bullets are in that thing. And if the counter reads to zero, just hit it on the side, pull the ammo out and slide a new clip in."

Sunset smiled. "So how come you know all of this?"

"Well, Shimmercakes, I designed the weapons so, really I think that's self explanatory." Tox chuckled.

"Hey." a voice interrupted.

Both Sunset and Toxigo turned their heads to Sunny and Sugarcoat in their bathrobes standing looking at them.

"Morning you two." Sunset said with a friendly voice.

"Morning dearie. We came by to say breakfast is ready." Sunny replied.

"Oh, sweet, lets go." Toxigo said.

With that, Toxigo and Sunset walked down with Sunny and Sugarcoat down into the dining room for their breakfast.

Soon everyone joined them, and now sitting at the table eating plenty of pancakes, bacon, and eggs along with milk and orange juice were human Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie, Fluttershy, Rainbow, Sunset, Flash, Sunny, Sugarcoat, and Toxigo. All the while, Echo occasionally walked around and poured others drinks acting as a waiter for them.

"So... how is everyone doing so far?" Toxigo asked. "I hope you're doing much better than you were yesterday?"

"Oh, yes. I'm glad we're not stuck in that changeling cave." Fluttershy replied.

"Me too, those things were just... ugh, creepy." Rainbow said.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Has Indigo come back?" Sunny asked.

"Think about it she isn't at the table, so what do you think?" Tox replied sounding blunt.

"I don't think she'll be coming back since she's giving up so easily." Sugarcoat said.

"Well at this point I don't care. Frankly, its good she's not around. She's been incredibly whiny, and plus constantly seeing her is just a reminder of that.... one incident I'm not going to mention.... plus I can't remember the last time she ever did anything nice for me when we were dating. Hence one of the many reasons I dumped her."

Everyone looked up in awkwardness staring at Toxigo.

"The point is.... we need to keep going. Besides, there's still plenty of us, we can do it."

Tox then took a sip from his chocolate milk, and everyone was greeted by Princess Twilight.

"Morning everyone." Twilight said.

"Morning Princess." Toxigo said.

"You know, its just Twilight. You don't need to refer to her by her royalty name you know." Rainbow said.

"Yes but having coming across two of them is confusing! Besides I thought calling her Princess would help me tell them apart." Toxigo replied.

Twilight levitated a chair out and sat down next to Sunset, and joined in on their conversation.

"So, how is everyone?" Twilight asked.

Everyone nodded to give a gesture of yes.

"Oh before I forget, Sunset there was something else important that I didn't tell you. When I was with the Shadowbolts, we had an encounter with the Dazzlings, and for some reason, I ponied up out of nowhere. And that was just from me saying that I forgave them." Toxigo spoke up.

"Wait, you ponied up?" Twilight asked.

"Yeah, I did. And it happened several other times before. And that was just repeating the traits from the rest of the humans. But for some reason I don't know why I did just flat out of nowhere." Toxigo said.

"I think I may have a reason for that. The Tree of Harmony that used to reside in the Everfree Forest, holds different Elements on its branches to represent the Elements of Harmony."

Toxigo's jaw was a little open and his eyes were scrunched up. "I'm sorry... what?"

"It takes too long to explain. But there has been rumor going that for the empty branches, there would new elements unlocked in time. I think your pony ups with the repeats of everyone else was signaling something to you. Yeah... I think you have unlocked an element."

"Yeah, unlocking a new element that explains how I ponied up at the Battle of the Bands." Sunset replied.

"Yes, yes it does. But if that's the case, then maybe there are others out there who have elements as well. In fact, we discovered two others who had elements. Flash is one of them, as well as Coppermane back on Earth"

"Wait, you mean Fluttershy's boyfriend?" Toxigo asked.

"Yeah, that's him. Why do you know him?" Twilight asked sounding intrigued.

"Unfortunately, no. I haven't met him, but from what Sunset explained to me and from what I remember, he's a former Shadowbolt and he's got one of those Elements as well. As for what it is, I'll never know." Toxigo replied.

"Do you know what he looks like?" Flash asked.

"Coppermane has white skin, copper colored hair, bit of a shy guy, and nowadays he's seen with a hoodie with a white music staff with a treble clef, along with sparkles in the background." Sugarcoat bluntly stated, getting stares from everyone. "We saw him with Fluttershy at the Friendship Games."

Tox's face kept a look of confusion.

"I'm sorry I still don't recognize him, you got a photo?"

Fluttershy pulled a phone from her pocket and showed some photos of her and Coppermane together.

"Oh wait I recognize that guy. I saw him at Crystal Prep, but then one day he lashed out at Neon Lights... I found that surprising at first. Nowadays I've grown very happy that he has done that. Tell him I said thanks for that."

"Oh, um... okay.. I guess." Fluttershy responded.

"And now that I think of it, I've seen that guy rocking the grand piano a few times. Very impressive talent right there."

"Yeah..." Fluttershy blushed.

Tox's eye then looked at Fluttershy again, and spoke up. "So, wait, why did he lash out at Neon?"

"He lashed out because he was being pushed to the breaking point. Everyone constantly picked on him and they wouldn't leave him alone, so he, blew a fuse and... um.. beat him up." Flutterhsy cooed.

"Ouch... my deepest sympathies to your boyfriend Shy. Well, at least going to CHS got him away from the CPA kids right?"

"Sadly no." Sunset replied.

"Neon Lights tried to sabotage their relationship." Rainbow replied.

A look of grim anger appeared on Tox's face, and his fists were clenched tight to the point they were almost turning white, but he stopped and took a deep breath to calm down.

"Wow. Just... wow. How low does he step? He hurts people just to prove he's better than them, and became homicidal when dealing with me. Typical." Tox then took another bite of the pancake. "Remind me, when we get back to slap him right across the face."

"No, its okay, you don't have to go to that much--"

"Fluttershy. Neon Lights has hurt me enough and he can hurt me all he wants, but no one hurts a friend of my friend. Any friend of yours, is a friend of mine, and I'm not gonna let him get away with that."

"If you say so dearie." Sunny replied, then took another bite of her food.

"So-" Sugarcoat then finished chewing. "-what exactly are we doing to get ready for this battle?"

Toxigo moved his synthetic finger over a map of Canterlot City and the castle giving them directions on what to do.

"Okay, here's what we're gonna do, we're gonna mount the Changeling Cannons in different parts of the city, so they can take out the changelings in different areas, luckily they're impossible to get rid of. We should have a chance to take them down. And all of us are going to split into groups so we may handle different soldiers and warriors that come through to try and kill us."

Sugarcoat and Applejack looked at each other both nodding in agreement.

"Now here are the groups. Jackie and Rare will take the east where pony Rarity's Boutique is set up. Skittles, Echo, and Shy, will take the south side where you'll find a shop with a giant pair of scissors over it, you'll take the street there. Flash, Pinks, and the Royal Princesses will take the west side. The rest of us, being Shimmer-cakes, Sugar, and Flare will take the north side."

Tox then looked up to everyone and everyone faced him as he spoke.

"I couldn't have picked any other group of friends to fight along side with. I'm glad you all came for me, and you're helping me deal with this. Now..." Tox loaded the barrels on his arm rifle, and smiled towards everyone, "-Lets have a battle."

Everyone started putting batteries and energy cells into the light cannons, arming their weapons, and prepping new suits.

The Mane Six, which included Sunset, all wore kimono/robe-like outfits, each with their cutie mark emblems on them, belts to hold weapons on the side, all in different colors, and all of the suits were reminiscent to warrior robes.

Sugarcoat now wore a super-tight spandex outfit, which was all in black with blue and yellow lightning bolts, her belt had little sticks of yellow and blue colored dynamite, she had blue goggles which went over her glasses, and on her back she had a Gatling light cannon.

Sunny Flare's attire was new too, she had on a spandex outfit as well, only hers was purple with black streaks, her belt had a rainy cloud emblem on it, on her sides she had shurikens in the shape of her hair clip, a headset on her face with a microphone, and she had chest armor, with spikes on the shoulder pads.

Flash, on the other hand, equipped himself with golden Royal Guard armor, along with a Spartan helmet, a sash attached hanging below the belt, and running boots. He also had two mini-light cannons strapped to his arms so he could fire them off towards the enemy.

Once everyone was suited up, they all stood over on a side of the ship high above Canterlot, all the while the wind was blowing in their hair.

"Why are we here again?" Sugarcoat asked.

"Because, we're gonna skydive off the ship and parachute into Canterlot." Toxigo said with a crazy smile on his face.

"Wouldn't it make more sense to just park the ship towards the ground?" Pinkie asked.

"Failures in instructing ship assembly have made the option unavailable." Echo replied.

"Besides, this is more fun!" Toxigo replied.

"I'm not so sure about this..." Sunset said.

"Come on Shimmer-cakes. I'm not jumping down there alone... How about this? I hold your hand, you hold mine, we both go down together. Okay?" Toxigo offered.

Sunset laughed a bit at Toxigo's offer, and humbly agreed. How could she say no to him?

"Okay, I suppose. Just promise me we won't get hurt." Sunset replied.

"I promise." Toxigo grinned. "So, who's going first?"

"So, even though there's probably a thousand other ways we could get down there, this is what you're really going with?" Sugarcoat asked.

"And for being blunt like that, you're the first to go." Toxigo deviously grinned.

"Wait, what!?" Sugarcoat realized.

"See you!"

Soon Sugarcoat and Sunny were pushed off the side and began hurling towards the ground screaming as their bodies whooshed through the clouds.

Flash and everyone stared at Toxigo just shocked at what he just did. He just...pushed them over? Toxigo looked back and saw their faces.

"Don't worry guys, I installed a device onto their suits that will save them before they hit the ground and their bodies splatter over the streets. Bet that will be nasty to look at."

"That's very unsettling you know!" Flash replied.

"Well, what are you gonna get? I'm scary!"

Toxigo turned and held onto Sunset's hand. Sunset looked down and gulped at how high they were up, but remembered she would be jumping down with her friend.

"Here goes nothing. 3.... 2... 1... EQUESTRIA!!!!"

Toxigo and Sunset jumped off the side grabbing onto each other's hands as their bodies felt the air rushing right past them.

"Well, if they're going that way, me too." Rainbow replied. She backed up away from the side getting ready for a running start. Soon she sped up her pace and as she ran, jumped right off the side shouting in victory.

"WHOO-HOO!!!!!" Rainbow yelled.

It wasn't long until the rest of the girls just stayed together and jumped off the side as well joining everyone as they all whirred through the sky. Aiming for the ground, ready with their new plan, and for a whole new battle to await them.
