Applebloom was dragged and forced from the area by three figures in hoods. She couldn't see a thing under their hoods, and she couldn't identify them which made it worse. So the three then entered an area which was common in the suburban area outside of Canterlot, which was Camp Everfree, a famous camp for anyone in the town or city and is well known for many of the creatures that lived in there. But in this part of the woods, she was dragged into what looked like a campground that was empty, and she saw there were some tents set up, with the tenants being only the three hooded members. They tied Applebloom's hands behind a pole so she wouldn't escape, not that she would since her foot was broken, but they wanted to take extra precautions.

Applebloom struggled to try and escape, but sadly she couldn't. "Who are you, and what do you want with me!?" Applebloom said sounding scared out of her mind. The hooded members then took their hoods off, revealing underneath that it was Adagio Dazzle, Aria Blaze, and Sonata Dusk.

"Well we're the Dazzlings, I'm sure you remember us from the Battle of the Bands." Adagio responded. Applebloom was now more terrified than ever after seeing them.

"I thought you ran away after the battle." Applebloom asked questioning them.

"Well we did run, but we never left. But to answer your second question, you are our leverage. We would consider getting revenge on the Rainbooms, but it isn't worth losing something else that's of value. Now, here's the deal. The Rainbooms are gonna open that portal that resides in the statue if they want you back alive." Adagio explained.

Applebloom then struggled again to try and escape but sadly got nowhere near to even getting a little free.

"You're not going anywhere kid. You might as well just forget it, cause no one is coming to save you." Aria then said sounding grumpy as usual.

The three Dazzlings not saying anything else after that, went into their tents closing out for the night, but they kept the fire going so their leverage wouldn't get cold. Applebloom struggled hard but it was no use; she couldn't escape.

At that same time Toxigo was hidden in trees watching the entire thing. He had no idea who they were.

"Who are they... Ugh, it doesn't matter. Kidnapping is dangerous on any level."

Once he knew their motive for kidnapping, and he just had to get Applebloom out, but he wasn't sure as to how. He didn't want himself revealing vital information to the enemy, but he also didn't want to leave Applebloom alone with no way of someone finding her.

"I got to get her out of there... But how... Hm..."

And so with a bit of thinking, he got an idea.

"Hm... Maybe I can use my magic? But if they know?" Tox sighed just thinking. "Looks like its the only option I have."

Making a leap down from the trees, and landing on the ground into a bush, sadly on his back--

"OW!"

Tox got up, brushed off the thorns and leaves that were stuck on him, and started moving towards the camp.

The first move of action was that Toxigo stole a pot and bat from their tent that they had stored kitchen supplies so that they could get their attention. He then very loudly, walking around the camp in shadow, banged the pot with the bat really loudly attempting to get their attention.

"Hey you hooded creeps! We've got a dead body out here with your name on it! No really, there's a sign that says 'Woe is me and all others who are murdered by attractive ladies!' I suggest you go and take it!" Toxigo yelled.

Applebloom saw Toxigo, but all she saw was darkness covering him, then Toxigo ran off as the Dazzlings emerged from their tents.

"Who's making that noise, I swear I'm gonna rip their guts out." Aria said sounding grumpy as usual.

They looked around, and didn't see a thing. All they saw was tied up Applebloom, the burning fire to keep her warm, and their tents. But something caught their attention, they listened in on a very strange noise. The noise was of a bit of a whir. Like if energy was being beamed.

The Dazzlings looked around to find the mysterious noise, only for them to turn and see that Applebloom was now gone and freed.

"Oh great Adagio. You just let our only chance of escaping here, escape." Aria responded.

"Maybe if someone had tied up the ropes tight enough she wouldn't have escaped." Adagio said.

"Hey, I tied her up tight. The ropes are impossible to get out of." Sonata responded.

"Well if she escaped, She probably didn't go far. She can't go far with a broken foot." Adagio said with an evil grin.

"Well unless a friend came and freed her from the ropes, and knew that Sonata wouldn't be smart enough to tie her up, then yes, she can go far." Toxigo responded.

The three sirens turned around to see a dark figure which to them was unidentifiable but they could see Applebloom clearly now sitting on a log near the burning fire.

"Who are you?" Adagio asked.

"How about I explain who I am, in song..." Music was about to kick up, but then-

"No I'm just teasing you sirens. I'm not clever enough to come up with lyrics right now." Toxigo said laughing a bit.

However, his tone of laughing soon stopped, as he gave an evil grin facing the sirens. He emerged from the dark shadows looking at all of them with a devious smirk, which gave the former sirens a full look at his body.

"Who are you..." Adagio asked with anger.

"Oh who am I" Toxigo asked mockingly. "Well....that's actually a legitmate question. But, I'm not gonna say because you three are crazy for kidnapping this girl, and frankly I don't think trusting you is an option right now. And I... believe in magic...." Toxigo said sounding like he was going to kill them.

Tox shined with a green aura surrounding his body, along with the golden glow of the amulet, as he floated into the air looking at them maliciously. Suddenly, his ears transformed near the top of his head in the shape of pony ears, green wings spawned from his back, and the back of his hair grew long and lustrous floating all the way to his back. Then dramatic music rose up, and Toxigo began singing an ominous tune.

Freed, freed....
Free...Now lets make some....
I'm possessing magic, I'm possessing magic
I've possessed some magic, magic....
I possessed the magic, I own the magic, I control the magic
I believe... in magic....

The three sirens stood still in fear, but Adagio while showing fear secretly had a new plan in mind. She was aware Toxigo possessed magic, and she was going to think of a way they could get it from him. Little did she know, Toxigo was many steps ahead of her. Once he floated himself back onto the dirt, Toxigo simply looked at the girls with an over the top expression on his face, and yelled "WHOO!!!!! I love magic!"

The three girls got into fighting positions, and Tox got into a fighting stance, ready to battle.

"Bring it on" Adagio snarled.

"I think I will." Tox smirked.

Adagio and Tox began circling each around each other, and began throwing some oddly specific banter.

"So, what's your story? You look like something that should be out of those video games everyone speaks of." Adagio remarked.

"Long story short, standing out gets you nearly murdered. Now, if you don't want me to fight you which I don't, I will take Applebloom, and leave you three peacefully alone..."

"I think not, we want out of this world and she's our only chance of getting out."

"What are you talking about?" Tox asked.

"You really don't know what we're saying?" Adagio asked.

"No, and honestly, I'm not concerned with that right now."

Adagio began to make the first charge, and Tox responded by making a spin and roundhouse kick to her face. Followed by a kick to the chest, a knee to the crotch, and one final kick to the ground. Adagio, was out. Tox saw what he did and put his hands on his face.

"Oh... god..." He leaned over to her chest and listened in on her heart, and sighed in relief. "Oh, thank god... She's fine. She's... knocked out, but she'll live.

Aria and Sonata were surprised, and their jaws were wide open, and they hadn't said a word.

"Um... Are we gonna fight or no? Because I believe I just started a fight and I think its only fair that we finished it."

Aria finally closed her jaw and cracked her knuckles in anger.

"Oh finally you're doing something." Tox complained.

Aria this time slipped out a weapon. A small little switchblade knife from her pocket, and she was ready to make any stabbings.

"So we're fighting with weapons? Very well, we fight with weapons."

Tox's prosthetic hand began a transformation. The metal began clanking, the titanium began transforming, and the gears turned, until the hand transformed into a blue colored blade. Tox swung his arm around getting ready to use it, and Aria began the first attack. She made a first swipe, and Tox blocked with his arm blade. Aria aimed for his face, only for Tox to push her back to keep the blade from slitting any blood from his face. Aria made another strike again, only for Tox to grab her hand so hard that she dropped the switchblade, and Tox kneed her in the stomach, making her fall to the ground.

"Why do I keep knocking people out!? This is just making me look bad!" Tox whined.

He turned his head towards Sonata who was looking terrified beyond belief.

"Are you gonna listen to me, or are you gonna get kneed like they did?"

Sonata could only raise her arms in surrender. She was terrified.

"Trust me honey, I hated every minute of what I was doing right here."

It wasn't until later that now, he was tying up the three girls to the pole that they had tied Applebloom to. Aria was the only one unconscious, with Sonata still awake, and Adagio slowly regaining her consciousness. And currently, Sonata and Aria had tape across their mouths, and Tox was about to apply some onto Adagio's, and she woke up to see it.

"Wait...what are you doing? No, don't you dare put that--MMM!"

Adagio had a rag shoved into her mouth, which was then sealed by the roll of duct tape wrapped around her head. And she was incredibly angry.

"Now you listen to me... whoever you are, sorry I failed to get your name. Sorry. Anyways...I don't know who you are, I don't know what you are, but I can tell you this..." Toxigo then leaned in towards Adagio some more, eye to eye.

"You're not going to be hurting anyone. And don't think about questioning how I'm able to use magic, you won't be around me enough to find out how. Now if you'll excuse us, I've got a family member to help. So Applebloom, shall we go?" Toxigo asked to Applebloom.

"Um....Sure, I guess." Applebloom responded sounding unsure.

Toxigo gave Applebloom a hand to help her walk, and the two simply walked out leaving the three sirens tied up with no way of breaking free.

"Oh don't worry. I'm sure you can escape that easily. I intentionally did a bad job of tying them so you can break out of those. I'm not gonna let you die!" Tox yelled back.

"MMM! IMM GMMM KMMM YMMM!" Adagio muffled.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah...I know, burn in Tartarus." Tox nonchalantly replied.

Little did he know by using the magic, he had alerted something manical in Equestria...

Over in Equestria, in a dark and damp cave, many creatures had been resting, and were continuing to rest in the night. However, one of them, with glowing green eyes felt something. The presence of that powerful magic from the amulet, had awoken the creature.

"The Alicorn Amulet, has been unleashed..."
