The sunshine came through Sapphire’s window on a bright beautiful morning but she wasn’t in the mood to wake up. “Five more minutes.” However, Snowflake was wide awake and she wanted her rider up and ready too. So she did what any dragon would do to wake up their sleepy rider... lick their face until he/she wakes up.

And It worked.

“Hehehe. Snowflake, stop, Hehehe.” Sapphire laughed but the Light Fury refused to stop until she was up and about. “Okay, Okay, I’m up. Happy?” Pikachu yawned as he woke and gave a happy greeting. "Pikachu." Snowflake nuzzled her rider, "I'll take that as a yes." Sapphire got up and went to the bathroom but when she turned on the light “What the-? MYKAN!”

Mykan immediately rushed into the bathroom. “What’s wrong Sa-“ Mykan gasped when he saw what she was talking about “I’ll go get Lightning and the others.”

Soon the whole team was at Mykan's examining Sapphire, “I just don’t understand it. How could Sapphire possibly get a energizer like us?” Lightning said. The energizer aka transforming badge was the marking of a Unicorn and a single wing. This meant she could now don on a super suit for battle and go into Battle-Mode.

The armor itself composed of a highly density polymerized alloy and infused with stardust and cosmic energies; making it hundreds of times stronger than diamond. Nothing could harm it under fifty-thousand degrees and would take a lot of power and strength just to dent it. It was also magically enchanted; it would amplify the wearer’s natural abilities, magic, and weapons, making them stronger and swifter than they were before.

The visors, now they were most important piece of equipment. Each visor had a set of various incredible functions.

-Heat sensory
-X-Ray
-Infrared vision
-Sound Scan
-Radar
-Telescopic magnification
-Medical scan
-Power scouting
-Database retrieval

Also, all Starfleet suits as well their fighters fought under a specific elemental or attributed force.

“But how did she get one in the first place?” Starla questioned.

“Thats the real mystery.” Buddy commented.

They saw Lightning writing something a piece of paper. “Lightning, What’s that?” Artie asked.

“A letter. Maybe their majesties know what’s going on.” He handed the letter to Spike. “Spike.” He nodded and sent the letter.

Just then, in a bright flash, their majesties appeared. “We got your letter Lightning.” Grand Ruler stated. “May we see Sapphire?”

Sapphire came before the royal couple and they both examined her insignia “Indeed this is no hoax. That’s a true Starfleet energizer.” Celestia confirmed. “But how she acquired this is beyond any of our knowledge.” Luna added.

Suddenly, a bright tube of light came in behind everybody. “What’s that?” Sapphire asked. Before anybody could answer and angel-corn (what ponies become when they die) appeared and everybody recognized the pony. “Twilight?!”

“Good morning everybody.” she greeted. “I see you all found my gift to Sapphire.”

“Your gift!” Rainbow exclaimed.

“You mean it was you who gave her the energizer.” Applejack added. Twilight nodded and everybody was both amazed and confused. “Why would you give her an energizer?” Fluttershy asked.

"This is part of her test." Twilight replied.

"A test?" Lightning asked.

"A test for what?" Grand Ruler added. Before Twilight could reply, ponies screams were heard from outside. “What’s that?” Celesto asked. Everybody went outside and saw to their horror; ponies were stuck in amber cocoons unable to move. Not only that, the amber was all over the place; on the houses and the streets. “What in the name of the galaxy happened here?” Buddy asked. The answer came when five new dragons landed before the group.

They were all 75 feet long and had a wingspan of 85 feet. They all had a long, slender body. Its body is very thin The dragons have striking and bright colors of blue, yellow, and orange on both its wings and its tail. They had spikes that run along their backs.

(Like this)

“What the heck are those things?!” Rainbow cried.

“Their Death Song Dragons!” Sapphire replied.

“Well let’s get them out of here!” Lightning snapped. The team nodded and they were about to transform when “Lookout!” Sapphire and Snowflake dove out of the way when the dragons released and amber-like liquid at the ponies and Mykan, trapping them all and it hardened quickly. “I.. Ugh.. can’t move!” Applejack cried.

Everybody tried to break free but it was in vain. “What is this stuff?” Mykan asked.

"It's their quick hardening amber. Almost impossible to break out of!" Sapphire called from her hiding place.

“It’s hard as a rock.” Dyno said.

“Si, really strong.” Myte added. Their majesties tried blasting the substance with their magic but it didn’t leave a mark. “Our magic does not work with this substance.” Celesto said.

“I think that’s the least of our problems.” Lightning said. Two of the Death Songs grabbed the team and their majesties in its mouth and, to Sapphire’s horror, flew off with them. “Sapphire, help!” Everybody cried. The other three Death songs grabbed the trapped citizens and flew off with them as well.

“Guys!” Sapphire could only watch as the Death Songs carried her friends and the civilians far away. “Oooh, How am I gonna save them?” she asked herself.

Twilight’s spirit appeared beside her. “By using your new energizer, that’s how.”

“But I’ve never used it before. I can’t battle four of those dragons by myself! Even with Pikachu and Snowflake, I'm outnumbered. I have an energizer I barely know how to use. I... wasn’t prepared for this.”

Music began playing in the background as Sapphire sang about her doubts.

The song ended and Twilight came up to Sapphire. “I know you have your doubts, Sapphire. But I know you can save them.”

“How?”

“Because you’re smart, brave and loyal. You know a lot about the dragons than your friends do. Use that knowledge to save them.” Sapphire thought about what she said.

“Use you’re knowledge well to save your friends. I must go now. Remember what I said.” Twilight floated into the air and vanished.

Sapphire just stood their for a moment until Pikachu and Snowflake nuzzled her for comfort. "I know guys, I'm worried about them too. But we don't know where those Death Songs took them to.”

Meanwhile in a cave in the New Everfree Forest, the Death Songs had placed all the captured ponies in one corner of the cave. Lightning and the others tried once again to break free from the amber. "Ugh... it's no use. This amber is too strong." Lightning sighed.

"Wh-What are they gonna do to us?" Fluttershy whimpered.

"I don't know, but we need to get out of here." Buddy said.

"Ummm, hello. We're trapped in here and there's no one else that can save us." Rainbow grumbled.

"Sapphire can." Starla said. "She dealt with those other dragons like it was nothing."

"But that doesn't mean she'll get rid of these things that easy." Rainbow replied.

"We just have to hope she can." Grand Ruler said.

Back in the village, Sapphire was pacing around trying to figure out how she could discover the Death Songs cave. “Maybe I can.. No, no,no.” She sighed sadly and Snowflake warbled, “Sorry girl, I’m just.. Stuck. I can’t find a way to find the Death Songs.”

Pikachu gave a worried cry.

Just then, Sapphire’s chest glowed brightly. “Huh? What the-?” She and Snowflake were suddenly teleported into a cave with crystal diamonds on the side and they saw a crystallized tree with the center of it being a star, like Twilight Sparkle's cutie mark and Queen Celestia and Princess Luna's cutie marks on the trunk as well.

“Woah.” she gasped in awe. “What is this?”

“This is the Tree of Harmony.” a voice replied. Sapphire and Snowflake turned around and saw Twilight again, "The Tree of Harmony?" Sapphire asked again.

“The Tree of Harmony is a powerful and magical tree that control all that grows in the New Everfree Forest and it is where Queen Celestia and Princess Luna first discovered the Elements of Harmony.” Twilight explained.

Sapphire walked towards the tree and as she got closer the more the tree and her chest glowed. Finally, she stood a few feet from the tree and touched the base. In a instant the tree glowed brightly and released six multi-colored beams at Sapphire’s chest.

The light on her chest began to morph into what looked at be necklace with a gemstone in the middle.

With a final flash, the glow diminished and Sapphire felt a bit woozy. “Woah, that was intense.” She looked down at her chest and was shocked “What the-?” On her chest was a golden necklace with a silver heart crystal in the center. “Wha-What happened?” she asked. Twilight's spirit came up to her. “The Tree of Harmony gave you a hidden Element of Harmony.”

“Hidden?”

“Yes. Use your element wisely, Sapphire. I sense great magic inside of you. I must go now.” Twilight angle-corn then disappeared. “Hey wait, how am I suppose to find my friends?” she called aloud. The crystal in her necklace glowed and made a magical trail leading out of the cave and through New Everfree Forest.

Pikachu and Snowflake followed the trail. “Pikachu! Snowflake, wait!” and Sapphire followed her. The trail lead the two to a large cave deep in New Everfree Forest. Pikachu, Snowflake and Sapphire stopped and looked at each other. “This might be the place.” Sapphire slowly walked in followed by her trusty Pokemon and Light Fury. Sapphire lit her horn, lighting up the cave. Sapphire and the dragons saw some bones on the floor. "...Dragon bones." she whispered. Pikachu and Snowflake growled softly. Further walking through the cave, the three came to a large chamber. Scanning the chamber, Sapphire saw the civilians and her friends in the far corner. The Death Songs were thankfully asleep, but were in the middle of the chamber! “Oh boy, how am I gonna get the dragons away from them and free the ponies?" Sapphire asked herself. "I know that the Death Songs Amber is weak to Monstrous Nightmare fire but I don’t have that kind of fire.”

Snowflake pointed to her necklace. “The Element? Well…. I guess it couldn’t hurt.” Sapphire said. “But how are we gonna get them away from Mykan and the others?”

The Light Fury roared loudly into the cave, catching prisoners attention and waking the Death Songs. “What was that?!” Lightning cried. The Death Songs flew into the tunnel to investigate. The trio hid inside a tunnel and when the Death Songs were gone, Pikachu, Sapphire and Snowflake rushed into the cave and right for the others. “Sapphire, Pikachu, Snowflake, what are you doing here? Where’d you get that from?” Lightning asked, noticing her element.
“Questions later.” Sapphire said.

She closed her eyes and her element glowed brightly and blasted the amber, breaking it and freeing everyone. “Alright, we’re free!” Rainbow cried.

Sapphire opened her eyes and her element stopped glowing. “Thanks Sapphire.” Lightning stated.

“Come on!” Lightning snapped. “Let’s get out of here!”

Everyone rushed towards the tunnel, but before they could all escape the five Death songs returned and surrounded the ponies. They were all growling at the ponies. Snowflake roared back at them. The first Death Song was blocking the exit! “Oh great, what now?” Rainbow whimpered. Snowflake roared at Sapphire and nodded towards the Death Songs. “Let’s do it, girl!”

“Do what?” Applejack asked as Sapphire mounted the Snowflake. “You guys get the ponies to safety, I’ll take care of the Death Songs.”

“You mean.” Lightning started. Sapphire nodded. “I’m gonna battle them.” All the ponies gasped in horror. “You can’t be serious! Those ghastly things are too dangerous!” Rarity cried.

“I have no choice. I’ll be fine. Get the civilians to safety.” Sapphire said. Pikachu leaped onto her shoulder. Snowflake roared and took to the sky. The Death Songs released the amber from their mouths but the dragon dodged it and flew in between them. The Death Songs roared in anger and flew after her. “Alright, let’s go!” Grand Ruler snapped.

Everybody ran out of the cavern and through the forest until they were all safety back in New Ponyville. “Phew... that was a close one.” Dyno said.

“Si, too close.” Myte added.

“I just hope Sapphire’s alright.” Fluttershy added. Everybody hoped for that as well.

Meanwhile, Snowflake was diving in and out of the trees trying to lose the four Death Songs. “These guys won’t give up!” Sapphire cried in fear. Snowflake dodged the Death Songs attempts to trap them in the amber. “Good dodging.” Pikachu launched Thunderbolts at them and Snowflake shot bursts of spherical purple-colored flames at the Death Songs, however they dodged every single one. “Not good.”

Two Death Songs blasted amber again and this time it made direct contact, trapping Pikachu, Sapphire and Snowflake. The two fell from the sky. “HANG ON!”

CRASH!

The three crashed into the ground and slid for about three feet. “Ugh... Pikachu... Snowflake, you alright?” Snowflake warbled. "Pika." Pikachu nodded. “Good.” That’s when the five Death Songs landed near the downed trio. “Uh-oh.” Sapphire whimpered. Snowflake softly roared in fear as well. The Death Songs approached the three, ready to eat them.

At New Ponyville, Lightning, his team and their majesties were looking for any sign of Sapphire and Snowflake “Where are they?” Pinkie asked. “They should have appeared by now.”

"Let me go see." Rainbow flew into the sky and flew over New Everfree Forest. From the air she could see Sapphire and the dragons trapped in the amber, surrounded by the Death Songs. She gasped and zipped back to the others. "Guys!"

"What is it, Rainbow?" Applejack asked.

"Sapphire and Snowflake are trapped and the Death Songs are about to eat them!"

“WHAT!” Everybody snapped.

"Ay' Curumba!" the twins cried.

“Let’s go!” Lightning added. The gang flew off and got to the forest and came to the scene. “There they are!” Mykan called, pointing towards the clearing. They all saw the Death Songs surrounding Pikachu, Sapphire and Snowflake. "Let's move!"

The Death Songs licked their teeth, looking forward to their meal. Sapphire gulped nervously at the sound of their stomachs growling. “Gulp... guys where are you?” Sapphire whispered. The Death Songs opened their mouths and Sapphire closed her eyes.. ”UNIFORCE!” out of nowhere, a golden blast of magic hit one of the Death Songs. Sapphire opened her eyes, “Lightning!”

The team flew down blasting the dragons with their attacks.

”DRILL QUILL!”

“PAINT BOMB!”

“STAR SHOWER!”

The blast made the dragon and back off. Dyno and Myte landed near the trapped duo. “Hang on chicas.” Dyno said.

“We’ll get you out.” Myte added. Together they unleashed their ”BOOM-BOOM FLARE!” and freed the two. They shook for the amber. “Thanks boys.” Sapphire mounted Snowflake and they flew into the air. The team and their majesties blasted the Death Songs driving the five dragons far away. Next, they went to check on Pikachu, Sapphire and Snowflake. “Sapphire, are you okay?” Mykan asked. “Any injuries?”

“Yeah, we’re good.”

“Come on let’s go home.” Celestia added. “You and your dragon need a check up after that, Sapphire.”

“Yes your majesty.”

The gang took Pikachu, Sapphire and Snowflake to the royal sickbay for an evaluations. They all checked out okay. After that, they were all called to the throne room. When they entered they saw the room crowded with ponies and other creatures from dragons to griffins and minatours. Lightning and their majesties were in standing in front of Grand Ruler and Celestias’ respective thrones. That caught them all by surprise. “So what’s this about?” Sapphire asked.

"Sapphire Sunlight, Pikachu, Snowflake, please step forward.” Celesto ordered. The three walked up to their majesties. Celestia began to speak. “We are gathered here today, to honor the heroism of these three friends for single handedly rescuing us twice from dangerous situations.”

Luna then spoke “By performing such a brave and noble deeds we are extremely proud and honored to present them both with the United Equestrian Pink Hearts of Courage.”

The crowd cheered loudly as Grand Ruler levitated the medal over Sapphire, Pikachu and Snowflakes' necks. Sapphire smiled.

“We have another reason for gathering here today.” Grand Ruler added. The crowd was confused as well as Lightning and all his friends, who were at the front of the crowd. “Sapphire, due to your incredible act of bravery and your willingness to never give up when your friends were in great peril you have proven to me and everybody else what kind of person you are; strong, brave and truly magical.

Which is why as Commander of Starfleet, I hereby dub Sapphire Shimmer, the newest member of Lightning's Starfleet unit as a Cadet!”

The crowd burst into extreme joy and glee. Pinkie and Rainbow were jumping up and down with joy while the others just cheered. Sapphire gave a cheeky smile. Snowflake nuzzled their rider.

Now she was the newest member of the Starfleet.

When the ceremony was over, she was approached by his friends. “Alright Sapphire!” Rainbow exclaimed. “You’re a Cadet now!”

“Way’d a go!” Mykan added.

“We’re so proud of you, darling.” Rarity added.

Lightning approached Sapphire. “Welcome to the team, Sapphire.” He saluted to Sapphire and she saluted back. That’s when the girls and Spike began singing.

Sapphire just couldn’t stop smiling. Their majesties stared proudly at the unit.

Allies can be in the shape of ponies, humans and even dragons and pokemon. And sometimes that ally can become a hero in the making
