Story: Pre-Subnautica + MLP
Chapter: 11. Twilight Princess of Friendship andCardgames as well Ruler of the survivers of the 'True Friendship'
Author: Black--Soul

Twilight was ones just a magical prodigy without comparable counterpart.
Than she become really something to remember her by:
She become a Alicorn!
She had almost a decade of endless adventures and hardships until Celestia & Luna started training her to join them eventually to rule Equestria as a triarchy. Three Alicorn to rule Equestria.

One of their lessons she used on almost a daily basis since they crashlanded on this Water planet:
'Always trick them into believing that they are in control. Their pride and ego are your weapons, blind them with their help. Stroke one or both, and if possible, make them believe that your idea becomes theirs or secretly works for them better.'

Further always remember: 'Only dictators and idiots focus on themselves and their comfortable luxury life, a true ruler focuses on everyone's well being. You are not there to conquer or dominate. When entering the stage of rulershipment, you are always seeking a peaceful solution.
War only bleeds countries, and tension is an infection that must be avoided, purged, or otherwise removed. Never be blinded by anger and never underestimate your opponent.'

While occationaly friction had to be smoothed out and the fire of emotional confrontation had to be put out, did Twilight Sparkle did fairly well as defacto leader of the survivers.

Thanks to Gales communications and recording abilities did everything could be smoothed out rather well.

As long Twilight and her PDA with Gale on it didn't dissappeard into the Alien building.
Than Twilight was almost impossible to retrieve unless she grow hungry or Applejack and Sharpbeak dragged her out of it.

Thanks to Gales help did they had the area mapped out and started to work on a translation for the Alien language. Unfortunately did all they had so far was the Alien needle Maschine that poked someone and give always the same sentence no matter how often they tried.
Especially after all there members had been poked and the sentence stayed the same.

They suspect that the voice was telling them that they are not authorized to access the maschin as they are not one of the species that build the place.
Rainbowdash and Filda suspected the voice to pranking them with a phrase like:
"Don't be a wuss, it was just a needle!
Next victim please."

Anyway did they only managed to get Pinkie Pie to Pinkie promise not to play with the miniature Sun. That was at least something.

Interessting enough did Pinkie Pie apparently tried breaking into one of the display boxes and caused a swarm of robotic spiders to apperently come out of the walls themself.

Fortunately did everyone keep their calm when they shoo away Pinkie Pie walked over the display case and returned into the walls.

The next incident was with who would have guessed, Zephyr Avatar.
He picked up one of the power containers that glowed green and if licked caused someone to fluff up and eminate a 3 minute period to have a light green glow coming of ones body.

When Pinkie Pie told later that she did it countless times and nothing happend, did everycreature eventually tested it out.

Back to Zephyr... He actually managed to get the mechanical Spider to come out in swarms.
Fluttershy suggested to feed him to them to restore peace.
Ungrateful Spiders ignored Fluttershy offer and left Zephyr alone after giving him a minor electrical shock to let him drop the green power cube and after returning it to its place, left once more by means of fitting into small slits that hide the Spiders.

That day it was decided to leave all green cubes alone.

Twilight and Spike occasionally went on exploration around the area, all Griffons armed with repeating crossbows followed them around thanks to Gale giving them constant positions updates.

After their 4th months of being on this Water focus world, did they finaly had a rough map of the area. It was rather difficult to navigate without many navigation points as referance.
Gale and Twilight eventually build Navigation devices thst could be harpoon into the sea floor.
Thanks to a spell of Twilight it looked like it's sounding rocks and would not be taken the Stalkers as a chewing toy.

After having places 200 of them in relatively even pacing did Gale started to map the area in more detail and note where what material was found.
Going for specific materials would be easier that way.

With 5 months on the planet did the survivers had a well enough map at their disposal to soon try going into areas that would lead deeper into the planet.
Gale had helped everyone to get the best equipment they all could possibly have and a team effort had them all prepared as well as they could be with their given magic and technological options they had.

Electrical Ell hunts become more often a highlight for the Griffons with them greatly enjoying its meat the most.
Twilight enjoyed the over abandonment of ell electrical parts noone liked eating because of it being 'not very tasty'.

Spike started to hunt with Rainbowdash and Gilda some of the Predators that acted rather aggressive towards them.
Unfortunately did many of them only tasted passable at best.

To everycreatures surprise did some of the Predators started to follow Spike around without trying to bite him.
Many Stalkers had learned that their teeth are no match versus Spikes scales, but this Stalkers and Sharks seem to almost affectionate be around Spike.
They enjoyed it greatly to be pet or scratched by Spike.

At some point did Spike even managed to ride some of them.
Something even Fluttershy had not managed as of yet.
While Fluttershy was tolerated and sometimes even well received by them, did Spike was world apart in popularity.

Noone knew how he did it or how they could ride Predators of their own, but when Twilight reminded them that the Sharks managed to chew through thin titan layers that are more sturdy than flesh and bones, was decided that being able to ride a predator was not worth the risk for losing a arm or leg for this entertainment.

Entertainment was rather limited on the planet so Pinkie Pie with Rarityd help managed to make a Card game played from once pod. Alone versus Gale or with one another. This game become fast popular and many combination and rules to regulating rules got introduced.
Zephyr and Fluttershy played surprisingly often and the passiv-aggressiv stance towards her brother got slightly smaller.

The phrase: "Its time to duel!" Become very popular for some time...

Twilight organized tournament with the winner receiving more Electric Ell meat portions or one additional Muffin for eatch won tournament.

The Empress if the Sea was surprisingly entertained with everything she had observed so far.
As playful as they all are, would she probably be rather well entertained in the coming years.
All she had to do is waiting g for them to continue to explore the deeper parts of the area and eventually meet up with her...
