All right, folks, it's time to work on my next Christmas/Hearth's Warming Eve fic, which isn't one per say but it works either way. Don't know if I will get this done before Christmas is done but I will get it done regardless (hey, I did it before with Ariel's Magical World, right?).

And now, let the madness begins!

---------------

"Once upon a time, not so long ago, a beautiful young unicorn named Twilight Sparkle went to live in a magical castle. Upon arrival, she made friends with the castle's staff of ponies that are colts and fillies. They, like their master known as the Demon Pony, were once older. As of now, the staff are living under a spell that can only be broken by the power of love. As Twilight's friendship with the Demon Pony grew, everyone hopes that she will be the one who could learn to love him, the prince known as Ben Mare, and thus save them all from the spell."

Chapter 1: The Argument

It was nighttime inside the enchanted castle as the staff are working on a dinner for Twilight and the Demon Pony, along with the unicorn's adopted daughter and her dragon assistant Spike. Caramel is helping cleaning off another filly. She has an auburn coat, blue eyes, and has a Heart for a cutie mark. Her name is Kairi.

As Kairi waits impatiently, Caramel is done cleaning her off. The colt grins as he said "You look radiant, Kairi. You and Soarin' will be the perfect light tonight."

"Height you say? Err, what does our height has to do with anything?" Kairi ask puzzled as she trots off. The spell has a big effect on Kairi's hearing, making it difficult for her to hear who's talking.

"No, Kairi, not 'height', 'light'."

"Oh, why didn't you say so before?" Kairi giggles then saw Soarin' arriving. "So, Saorin', it's going to be the two of us tonight, eh? Won't that be nice?"

"Yes, of course!" Soarin' exclaims as he bows to Kairi like a gentle-colt. Hopefully tonight will bring Twilight and the Demon pony closer than ever...hopefully.

----------------------

Demon Pony sat in chair in his room, writing a message to request some wood to the castle. Because of his form, the master usually ask the deliverer to drop it off in a certain place and he will get his payment. The servants of course get the wood themselves once the deliverer is gone.

In anohter chair is a parasprite named Goofy who is writing a letter for him while a blue Pegasus pony named Adventurous Finn is waiting for the Demon Pony to finish. The master said, "Please send 20 cords of wood to the castle. Send it now because...because..." The Demon Pony pauses, trying to think up to say.

Goofy kept writing the letter, scratching his head. Then he suggests, "Hyuk, how about because you say so...wait, wait, because you need it!"

"Yes, because I need it. Sincerely and so forth."

Once Goofy is done with the letter, he gave it to Finn who roll its up, then the colt calls out, "Pidove!" A normal/flying type Pokemon named Pidove flew into the room and salutes the pony who gave him the letter. The Pokemon flew out the window to deliver it. "United the way!"

The Demon Pony smiles a bit. His behavior has been approving lately, he isn't demanding more than the monster used to. Soarin' trots into the room, grinning as he said, "All right, dinner is served. Pinkie Pie exquisite in every detail as is our company..." The colt winks, he of course is talking about Twilight.

"Man, Twilight's making me nervous, Soarin'." The Demon Pony said nervously. "How come?"

"Isn't that obvious? She is a flly of course!"

"Tell me, what do I have to do to impress her?"

"Well, if it helps, a kiss of the hoof. When done properly, it will have the most charming effect." Soarin' suggests to the Demon Pony, making him hopeful. That could be a way to start things off, right?

----------------------------

Caramel is escorting Twilight, Nyx and Spike to the dininng room. Twilight smiles while saying, "Nyx and I have reading a very interesting book."

"Yeah, about dragons, knights, and..." Nyx begins to say, getting excited.

"Oh, well, how about telling us about it at dinner?" Caramel suggests to the two with a smile. "Things have been very tranquil with the master as of later.

"A tranquil?" Spike ask Caramel puzzled, not sure what the word meant.

"Well, I meant only as to how well Twilight and his grace has been getting along of course."

"Well, we have been getting along lately." Twilight said thoughtfully. Ever since the Demon Pony has saved her, Nyx and Spike from the Houndoom and the Hearth's Warming Eve festivals, things hads been going well.

"Yeah, well like good friends...or maybe more." Nyx said with a thoughtful look. Of course, the filly and Spike knew of the curse that the castle is under but they are under a Pinkie Promise not to tell Twilight (less they risk engaging Pinkie Pie).

"Eh, I don't mind as long as I get some dinnertime with Rarity." Spike said with a sigh on his face. The dragon has been seeing the fashion filly lately.

"Well, tranquil isn't the word I would use." Caramel said thoughtfully. "More like..."

"Calm, serine, in a word harmonious." A voice spoke up as the group saw a colt coming up to them. He has a brown coat, a s hort brown mane and tail, blue eyes and a dictionary for a cutie mark. His name is jacobyel.

"Wow, that is a good word." Twilight said with a smile. "You must be a smart colt."

"Thanks, allow me to introduce myself. My name is jacobyel, the castle's writer."

"Wow, did you write a lot of stories?" Nyx ask jacobyel hopefully.

"Right, and know every word of the dictionary." jacobyel said to the filly making him smile proudly to her.

"Well, it's nice to meet ya, jacobyel, want to join us?" Twilight ask jacobyel with a smile.

"Of course, I'd love to!" jacobyel said as he begins following the group, making Caramel groan in annoyance by this.

"What's wrong?" Spike ask Caramel, noticing the look of irration on the colt's face.

"To be honest, jacobyel is what we called the 'pony dictionary' because he speaks out of the right moment and speaks like a dictionary! We particularly dislike him." Caramel explains to Spike with a frown.

"Come on, he isn't that bad, right?"

Just then a familiar filly smiles as she waits for the group. Rarity said to Twilight, "Twilight. It is lovely to see you once more."

"Same here, Rarity. Spike can't wait to join you, right Spike?" Twilight giggles to Spike, causing the dragon to blush at this.

"Can't lie, I definitely am." Spike said as he takes Rarity's hoof and kiss it, making her smile while blushing. "We're going to have a great time!"

"Well, aren't ye all a sight fer sore eyes!" Another voice spoke up. The group saw an alicorn colt landing near them ,his eyes are dark brown along with his tail and mane. His coat is light blue and white. He is a pinto alicorn with a flag of Scotland as his cutie mark. "Rarity', Caramel...good to see ya, lass and lad!"

"How's it going, Brave Heart?" Caramel ask Brave Heart wiht a smile.

"Brave Heart. How are you, darling?" Rarity ask Brave Heart with a smile.

"It's been quite a while, actually. I've just been...keepin' to meself. And-." Brave Heart notices Twilight's group nearby. "Oh, you must be Twilight, Nyx and Spike, right?"

"That's right." Twilight said, curious about this Brave Heart character.

"Indeed, we are." Nyx said with a nod.

"And you are?" Spike ask Brave Heart out of curiosity.

"I am Brave Heart, son of Strong Wind, at yer service." Brave Heart said, giving a bow to everyone, including Nyx.

"Pardon me, but your accent is-."

"Yer not plannin' on making fun of me accent are ye?"

"Brave Heart, calm down." Rarity said, calming down Brave Heart then she turns to explain to Spike, "Sorry, it's just that he's very defensive about his accent."

"I wasn't gonna say that it was funny. I was just gonna say that it's unusual." Spike corrects Brave Heart, not wanting to make an enemy out of this alicorn.

"Oh...that. Well, I'm from Eatin'burgh." Brave Heart said to Spike with a light chuckle.

"Across the sea?"

"Aye."

"So, Brave Heart...do you have any family here in the castle?" Nyx ask Brave Heart curiously.

"Aye, I do." Brave said with a nod. "Rainbow's me cousin, and well...she's the only family I have in the castle."

"You're a male alicorn, I heard that they were rare." Twilight said in amazement.

"That we are. However, unlike those unicorns who chose to become alicorns, I was born as an alicorn. Because of that, I'm more of an outcast. Also it's due to me accent that I've been picked on."

"That must be terrible."

"Aye...that it is. But now is not the time to be discussing me past. The master is eager to see ya." Brave Heart said as the group heads on to the dining room.

"If you're an alicorn, shouldn't you be more older?" Spike ask Brave Heart, quietly so that Twilight wouldn't hear the private conversion.

"Aye. I'm supposed to be older, but due to this curse...I'm stuck as a teenage colt."

"Uh, mommy? I was wondering...I mean, when do you think I will ever get a daddy?" Nyx ask Twilight, making the mare look at her puzzled. "I mean, some foals back in the village got a mommy and daddy. How come you don't have your special somepony?"

"I just never have one...and of course we can't leave due to our promise to the Demon Pony." Twilight explains to Nyx with a sigh. "But no worries, I may find somepony...someday."

"Yeah, maybe..."

-----------------------------

In the dining room, the Demon Pony wait for Twilight until she came in with her group. The master gulp nervously, remembering what Soarin' told him to do as he takes the mare by the hoof, saying, "Twilight...your presence this evening warms my heart."

The Demon Pony kiss Twilight on the hoof, making her blush as she said, "Thanks." Caramel, Soarin' and Applejack cheers a bit, their master did nicely lately.

The ponies took their seats, sitting at each side of the table. Nyx said with a smile, "Mommy got a book that she wants to tell you about."

"Right, Twilight?" Rarity ask Twilight who smiles as she begins to tell the Demon Pony about the book that she read. Soarin' smiles a bit. Looks like the conversion is off to a good start.

Of course, then Kairi appears, getting in Soarin' way with his face hitting him in the head. The colt groans, "Kairi, you are too tall!"

"Well, I'm smart of course. A deck of genius, I will tell you that." Kairi said, mishearing what Soarin' just told her.

"No, no! Not too tall! Ugh, you will spoil the mood!"

"Boil the food? No way! That's Hoity Toity's job."

"No, no, he means you are in the way." Brave Heart said a bit loudly so that Kairi would hear him better. "Mind moving around?"

"Oh, why didn't you say so in the first place?" Kairi giggles as she moves so to give her friends a better view. Soarin' roll his eyes as he continues listening to Twilight's story.

Demon Pony begins adjusting the collar of his shirt that he's wearing. It's getting a bit warm in this room suddenly. Twilight, noticing, ask, "Is something wrong?"

"Err, it's a little warm in here, that's all. Please continue on." The Demon Pony said with a light chuckle. He is trying to keep himself from losing his temper so that Twilight can continue her story.

"Uh, if you want, we can open a window." Nyx suggests to the Demon Pony hopefully. "I mean, if you're getting warm..."

"Are you crazy?! It's cold out there!" Spike protests to Nyx as he motions to the winter outside. "No way are we opening the window just to end up freezing!"

"Spike!" The Demon Pony growls at Spike a bit then turns to Nyx, saying, "I'm fine, Nyx, really...Twilight, go on."

"Ugh!" Soarin' groans as Kairi is still in his POV. He snaps, "Come on, Kairi, heck I can see my own shadow! Back away!"

"Sack away?!" Kairi ask Soarin' in annoyance, mishearing him once more. "Hey, I didn't come here to get insulted, Soarin'! I demand respect!"

"No, no, he said 'back away, back away'!" Brave Heart yells out to Kairi so that he can tell her what Soarin' really saying.

"Come on, all of you, be quiet!' Caramel exclaims to the trio sternly.

"Right, be respetctable and polite, we don't want to ruin things here." Rarity said to the trio, Brave Heart nods though Soarin' and Kairi frowns while looking away from each other. Things are about to get ugly here.

The Demon Pony tries to eat his dinner quickly but the master is beginning to get more hot. Spike in concern whispers to Rarity, "I got a bad feeling about this."

"I know. I just hope that the master would not lose his cool or..."

"Err, excuse me...open the window." The Demon Pony whispers to Caramel in concern. The room is getting more hotter, the master is about to lose his cool big time.

"But you heard Spike, it could cause a chill." Caramel warns to the Demon Pony in concern. Getting hot is one thing but a chill may be a big pain.

"Ugh, fine. Twilight, please continue."

Twilight nods as she continues reading the book, despite the interruptions. Of course, the Demon Pony tries to fan himself with his paw, getting more hotter. The master is growling angrily. He's about to lose it.

"Uh oh." Nyx said with a gulp of worry. This doesn't look good. The Demon Pony is about to lose more than his cool.

"Enough, ENOUGH! Open the window!" The Demon Pony demands to Caramel frantically. He can't take the heat anymore!

"But..." Caramel begins to protest but his master cut him off, not hearing a word of it.

"NOW, NOW!"

Caramel screams in fright as he rush over to a window and open it, causing the cold, wind chill to come in. The servants, even Spike and Nyx, are getting cold. Rarity shivers, "Brrr! My goodness! It's freezing out there!"

"Tell me about it." Spike said with a shudder while holding himself to keep warm. "I'm too cold to send out fire!"

"Ugh, are you still warm?" Twilight ask the Demon Pony in concern. "The others, inclduing my daughter, is getting cold!"

"Well, why don't they leave the room if they are cold?" The Demon Pony ask Twilight with a frown.

"Come on, that isn't very congenial."

"What?"

jacobyel chose that time to butt in, explaining to the Demon Pony, "Congenial: pleasant and agreeable. And for a definite definition..."

"We get the idea, jacobyel, thanks." Brave Heart said to jacobyel with a sigh. No wonder why most of hte staff doesn't like this colt.

The Demon Pony frowns as he turns back to Twilight, saying, "Listen, I don't got to be con...con...err, ugh, come on! This is my castle! I make the rules here after all!"

"Well, that doesn't mean you have to act like a jerk about it!" Spike snaps to the Demon Pony with a scowl.

"Spike!" Rarity gasps to Spike, not because of his rudeness but because she was of how the master would react to what he just said.

"Look, we know it's because but that doesn't mean you have to be rude." Twilight said to the Demon Pony, calmly.

"Rude: offensive, primitive..." jacobyel explains to the Demon Pony. That ended up being a bad mistake.

"I KNOW WHAT IT MEANS! SHUT UP!" The Demon Pony roars as he hit jacobyel in the face, causing him to lose his balance and fell right onto the floor with a groan.

"jacobyel!" Twilight's group gasps as they rush over and help jacobyel up. The colt is dazed but not really hurt.

"Poor thing..." Nyx said with a sad sigh. Then the filly frowns to the Demon Pony was saying, "Hey, come on! That was a mean and awful thing to do!"

"Don't tell me to do! He spoke out of line, that's all!" The Demon Pony snarls at Nyx, causing her to yelp and hid behind Twilight in concern and worry. The stallion is becoming a bit grumpy today.

"But he was just telling you what the definition. It isn't his fault..." Spike said sternly but yelps as the Demon Pony roars at him, causing the baby dragon to yelp in worry.

"You are acting rude and foolish. Spike is right, you are a jerk!" Twilight exclaims furiously to the Demon Pony then storms out of the room with Nyx and Spike, all of them are upset with the former Earth pony prince's behavior.

Of course, this made the Demon Pony more angry. He let out a roar and knock over the table, causing the dinner to go spilling. With that, he run on all four legs, heading back to his room. Brave Heart frowns as he follows the Demon Pony.

The Demon Pony goes right into his room, slamming the doors closed on his way in. But then Brave Heart slams them open while yelling, "Benjamin Mare!"

The Demon Pony groans in annoyance, "Brave Heart, I told you never to call me that until such time as the spell is broken."

"Well, spell or no spell, I don't care if you wish to be called demon, you had no right to be losin' yer temper in front of Twilight, Nyx or Spike, lad. I suggest ye apologize to her immediately."

"No thanks, Brave Heart...and you forget your place...lad."

"Ooh, yer making fun of me accent, eh? Well then, fine...Ben! I hope yer happy. Because I sure am not. Unless ye apologize fer what ye did, ye can forget even speaking to me." Brave Heart remarks in annoyance as he storms out of the West Wing.

Demon Pony saw Brave Heart leave then scowls angrily after him, "Go on, then. I don't need you anyway!"

---------------

The dining room was cleaned up by the next day, but the disaster still remains. Twilight has remained in her room since the argument and the Demon Pony isn't any better. Applejack, Soarin' and Soarin' came in, all of them are worried. Unless the two possible lovers can make up, the curse will remain.

"Hoo doggy, Twilight won't leave her room." Applejack said in concern. "'Dis ain't good at all."

"Well, Iknow what must be do and what we must do." Caramel said thoughtfully. "We got to listen to an apology. The master's conduct was less than example last night."

"Ugh, he isn't the only one who needs to apologize? Did you see what Kairi did last night? The way she stands?" Soarin' snaps angrily while glaring at Kairi nearby. "You didn't have to do that, you know!"

"Soarin', I'm sorry if I upset you, it wasn't my intention to do so." Kairi said to Soarin' in sadness. "I just couldn't hear you so well, that's all."

"Couldn't hear my hoof, she has been using those dumb excuses for years."

Kairi looks more sadder as Soarin' cross his upper forearms. Her friend simply won't believe her and refuse to forgive the filly for the misunderstanding last night.

--------

The servants work in hopes to reunite Twilight and the Demon Pony. They spoke to the master first, explaining what must be done...easier said than done!

"Apologize? Ha! She gotta apologize to me!" The Demon Pony scowls stubbornly to the servants, making Soarin' and Caramel grin in understanding.

--------

Twilight trots around in her bedroom as Nyx and Spike sat on the bed watching with Pinkie nearby, all of them are worried. The baby dragon said, "Come on, Twilight, you're going to cut a hole in the floor."

"Right, I'm sure that da...err, the Demon Pony will say he's sorry." Nyx said with a smile. The filly, despite the argument, has look up to the Demon Pony for a while. Maybe seeing him as a daddy. Just then, a knock came to the door, making Twilight and Nyx smile. "That must be him now!"

Twilight straighten herself out and opens the door, but saw Caramel and Soarin' outside, explaining the situation: the Demon Pony wants her to apologize to him for what happened to dinner.

"Wait, you want me to apologize to him?" Twilight ask with a blink, making Soarin' and Caramel nod a bit.

"Well...we did kinda call him a jerk at dinner." Spike said, rubbing his scales sheepishly. "Well, just me and Twilight."

"Come on, mommy. The Demon Pony would be miserable if you don't apologize." Nyx said to Twilight gently. "Hay, I am willing to apologize for yelling at him before. You aren't really that mad at him...are you?"

"Well...yeah, I guess I do owe him an apology for calling him rude, I guess." Twilight said with a sigh. The mare's calling him rude and a jerk did upset the Demon pony.

"So you will do it?" Caramel ask Twilight hopefully.

"Yeah, I guess I will apologize if Nyx and Twilight will." Spike said with a smile on his face.

"I wanna apologize too." Nyx said with a happy look on her face. "Mommy?"

"Yeah, I will apologize...but he got to apologize to me first." Twilight said sternly, making Nyx, Caramel and Soarin' worried. This could get harder than expected.

---------------

Brave Heart joins Soarin' and Caramel as they head back to the Demon Pony's room, knowing that he won't be happy about what Twilight wants him to do.

"This must be put...delicately." Soarin' said with a worried look.

"Right, leave it to me." Caramel said in concern. Inside the room, a while later, the colt explains what Twilight just told him...except the condition at first. "You see, Twilight, Spike, and Nyx agrees to apologize."

The Demon Pony smiles a bit, thinking that the worst is about to be over....until Brave Heart adds, "Well, she will, but there's one minor catch..." The master frowns, wondering what the catch is.

A while later, the trio was blown right out of the room once the condition was revealed: the Demon Pony must apologize to Twilight, Spike and Nyx. Of course, the master screams out to Soarin', Caramel and Brave Heart in fury, "NOOOOOO! I WILL NEVER APOLOGIZE!" He slams the door close right in front of the trio.

"Curses! I'll make the master apologize to Twilight if it's the last thing I do...and I will, too."

-----------

Twilight stares out a window in her room, looking sadly as she let out a tear. The mare knew that the Demon Pony will never apologize...eve.r

The Demon Pony looks at the enchanted rose as it is losing a few pedals, letting out a roar in sadness. Because of his recent behavior, the monster will become whom he is forever...trapped in his form and without love...

Author's note
Not good, Twilight and the Demon Pony got into a fight and neither one is willing to apologize first. In the next chapter, Nyx takes matters into her own hooves as she got jacobyel, Goofy and Finn to help forge a letter from Twilight to the Demon Pony. But when the truth is revealed, three of the four get into big trouble (and one of them isn't Nyx).

Gollum: Remember us, JusSonicses?

JusSonic: Gollum? What are you doing here? You're not part of the story.

Gollum: We knows, but we came to remind it and all fellow readers that our movie is coming out tomorrow.

JusSonic: Oh, right. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey comes out tomorrow. And I know a certain buddy of mine is excited, too.

Gollum: And remember, if no one goes to our movie...well, you know what we'll do...hmm?

JusSonic: Uh...fair enough. Anyway, here's what you need to know.

Gollum: Oops. We forgot. Our movie is already out now.

JusSonic: Oh...whew! Anyway, read, review and suggest!

Adventurous Finn is an OC pony based on Finn the Human.

You know who Goofy is by now.

Pidove is a Pokemon.

jacobyel is an author.

Brave Heart is an OC of KingHuffman.

Back again with another chapter. And yes, slptlak, that's whom I meant. Next chapter!

Chapter 2: Forgery: Not Good

It was a while and the Demon Pony and Twilight are still not talking to one another ever since dinner, thus the servants are getting worried. In the master's room, Soarin', Caramel and Applejack are there, looking at the enchanted rose that is losing a few more pedals.

"Not good. At this rate, I may never again see mare hood." Rarity said in sadness

"Eeyup. Ah done wonder if they will ever speak 'ta one another." Applejack said with a sigh while glancing at the rose.

"Unless Twilight loves him before the last pedal falls, we will be enchanted and this way forever." Soarin' said with a groan.

"Right, we should give it more time." Carame;l suggests as another pedall fall.

"Easier for you to say. Twilight won't apologize unless the master does and you know him. He's stubborn as a mule, no offens to the mule."

"Yes...and Spike and Nyx will not apologize until Twilight does." Rarity said wiht a frown.

"No need 'ta threat about it here." Applejack said with a sigh as the group leaves the room. Looks like Twilight will never forgive or worst yet, never fall in love with the Demon Pony at htis rate.

Unknown to them Goofy, Finn, jacobyel and Nyx overheard everything from behind the chair, all of them are worried. Nyx said, "Oh no. Mommy and daddy are really upset with each other."

"'Mommy and daddy'?" jacobyel ask Nyx with a quizzal look on his face.

"Well...ever since your master saved us and his changes...he is becoming a daddy...someone I would want."

"Gawrsh! We should act and do something, right now!" Goofy exclaims in worry. "Uh, any of you fellers and filly got any idea?"

"Isn't it obvious? The master needs to apologize if Twilight, Spike and Nyx were to apologize right back." Finn points out to Goofy with a sigh. "But you know him."

"In a word yes. Too bad we can't do it for him." jacobyel said with a frown.

What jacobyel just points out has made Nyx grins as she asks, "Why not? I mean, this is going to sound write...but if it's to help mommy and daddy make up. Perhaps we shall go for it!"

"Gawrsh, as in fake a letter? Hyuk! Good idea!" Goofy exclaims with a smile. Unknown to the group, Applejack was listening in on the idea, gasping in worry. This made end up being a bad idea.

--------

"'In enclosure, I'm sorry for acting like a jerk and...' no, no, no! Not good!" Nyx groans as she tries to help make a letter to Twilight to make it look like the Demon Pony has made it, but hit a dead end. Goofy kept on getting rid of the bad paper so far.

Brave Heart came in, noticing as he ask, "What ye lads and lass up to?"

"Oh! Well...uh..."

"We're trying to make a forgery to Twilight from the master, making it looks like he is apologizing for the way he himself was acting the other day." jacobyel explains to Brave Heart, making Nyx gasps in worry. He wasn't supposed to tell anyone. "What? I do not want to lie to Brave Heart. It wouldn't be right to do so."

"But he may tell the others!" Nyx exclaims frantically. "And we will get into trouble! I wanted mommy and daddy to make up, not hated each other more!"

"Well, I think making a letter to Twilight from the Demon Pony is a fine idea." Brave Heart said with a smile, much to the others' surprise. "But all right if I joined ye lads and lass in helping?"

"Of course!"

With Brave Heart's help, the gang wrote a proper letter to Twilight, making it look like the Demon Pony has written it. Goofy listen to what jacobyel and Brave Heart is telling him to write, as the former said, "'With deep regret for my hitless conduct, I therefore offer my apology and beg your forgiveness."

Soon the letter is done, making Finn grins as he said, "Perfect. Short..."

"Sweet..."

"Sincere." Goofy said with a helpful laugh.

"And to the point!" Nyx exclaims with a smile. "Mommy and daddy will have to make up for this. Thanks for the help, Brave Heart."

"No problem. Anything to be of service." Brave Heart said with a slight chuckle, then looks worried. "Of course, if this goes south, we may have to confess..."

"Let's hope that things doesn't go south."

-----------------

In the dining room, Caramel came in as Kairi was lying there, looking sad. She wants to speak with Soarin', wanting to apologize for what happened. The filly ask hopefully, "Have you seen Soarin' by any chance, Caramel?"

"Yes, but I'm sorry to report, he is avoiding you." Caramel said with a glum look. "I don't think Soarin' will find it in his heart to forgive."

"Oh...it's all my fault..."

"Aw, dear, don't punish yourself like that. The fool is too proud for his own good, that's all."

--------------

Inside Twilight's room, Applejack was pouring tea while her sister Apple Bloom and her friends Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo serves Twilight, Spike and Nyx. The mare smiles a bit. At least her friends are cheering her up.

"I wondered if the master will ever apologize." Sweetie said in concern.

"As my sister would ay, when Tartarus freezes over." Sweetie said with a scoff of disbelief. The Demon Pony will never apologize, he is too stubborn and upset.

Suddenly without warning, Pidove flew into the room with a letter, Applejack saw him and pretends to be shocked as she exclaims, "Whoa, heavens!"

"What in the world is that?" Spike ask in confusion as Twilight takes the letter from Pidove.

"A letter?" Twilight ask puzzled. "But who is it from?"

"Oh, I don't know, that is the Demon Pony's Pidove, right?" Nyx ask in pretend surprise while Applejack grins anxiously. The mare knew what's really going on but decides it's best to keep the whole ordeal that it was the filly and her friends' plan a secret for now.

"Twilight!" Caramel exclaims in surprise as he and Soarin' came into the room. "That's Pidove, it came from inside the castle!"

"The letter must be from the master." Soarin' said in surprise.

Twilight opens the letter and reads it. The mare smiles happily while saying, "It is from him! The trouble between us is over!"

"So wait, he's apologizing?" Spike ask in surprise as Twilight, Spike and Nyx walks out of the room with the others following her.

"What do you know? Tartarus did freeze over!" Sweetie said with a smile of amazement. The Demon Pony has agreed to apologize! It's a miracle!

As the group pass by the curtain, Nyx grins to Goofy, Finn, jacobyel and Brave Heart who came out of there, giving them the victory sign via hoof. The plan has worked! Twilight believes that the Demon Pony has send the letter nad has apologized!

"Ha! Hyuk, Nyx was right! What did I tell you?" Goofy ask his friends with a smile.

"Yes, now they will forgive and forget." jacobyel remarks with a pleased look on his face.

"Aye, as long as no one spill the beans of whom really made the letter." Brave Heart said in concern, knowing that things will go terrible if the Demon Pony and Twilight find out that it was them and Nyx who masterminded the whole letter thing.

"Oh, but what would happened if those two find out that it was us who made the letter? And Nyx! She masterminded the whole thing!" Finn exclaims in panic. Nyx was the one who masterminded the letter, they were following along! The poor filly.

"Mum's the word, boys, mum's the words." jacobyel assures his friends in determination. As long as they keep quiet about the whole, everything will be fine.

--------------

Twilight, Spike and Nyx came into the Demon Pony's room, the master is just standing there. He saw enter entering, wondering what they wanted. The Demon Pony was abotu to speak but Twilight interrupts, saying, "No, you don't need to say a word. I will speak this time. I'm here to apologize."

"Wait, you are?" The Demon Pony ask Twilight in surprise. Weird, she wanted him to apologize first but now the mare is doing so anyway?

"And we want to apologize too." Spike said to the Demon Pony, making Nyx nod happily.

"Your graciousness has put me to shame." Twilight said to the Demon Pony with a warm smile.

"Wait, it has?" The Demon Pony ask with a confused look on his face.

"Yeah, of course. Sorry it took mommy so long to do so." Nyx said to the Demon Pony with a smile. "Buuuut....she apologized now, so things are okay."

"Nyx, I will handle this." Twilight said to her adopted daughter while nuzzling her a bit. She turns to the Demon Pony, saying, "Nyx's right, I'm sorry it took me so long. I want you know that I didn't mean to call you a fool...and jerk. We are the ones who were foolish, stubborn and pity."

"And jerks, don't forget that." Spike adds in with a shrug.

"Spike! Anyway, I'm willing to forgive."

The Demon Pony didn't question the whole thing, instead he smiles while saying, "I'm happy that you came."

Twilight, with a smile back, held the Demon Pony's paws as she ask, "So you will forgive us?"

"Of course."

Nyx smiles happily. Things are going well between Twilight and the Demon Pony now. Who knows? Maybe the love thing will happen soon...and the little alicorn filly will have her daddy at last.

-----------------

The servants, Twilight, Nyx, Spike and the Demon Pony are in the living room by the fire, looks like things are calming down. As the master sat in his chair, he listens to the purple unicorn who is reading the story to him and the others, with Winona resting nearby.

"'As the carriage rolled forward, the filly looked back...'" Twilight stops and frowns. The Demon Pony is eating some chips, the loud noises he's making from the chewing is interrupting her. Regardless, the mare kept on reading. "'at the flowering farm. Then drew herself up couragelously...'" Twiight heard the Demon Pony eating once more, making her stop. "...jpurnel ahead.' Ahem, do you like it so far?"

"Oh, I enjoyed it, right Mr. Demon Pony?" Nyx chirps a bit while asking the Demon Pony. jacobyel, Goofy, Finn and Brave Heart nods.

"Yes, yes. Keep reading, Twilight." The Demon Pony insists to Twilight, he wants to know what happens next in the story.

"'Her foalhood held some sweet...'" Twilight of course has to stop again as the Demon Pony's chewing is interrupting her. Still, the mare doesn't want to force him to stop so she tries her best to keep going. "'...memories which she would...cherish like precious gems...'"

"Oh, for pete's sake!" Spike exclaims in annoyance. The dragon can't stand the chewing that the Demon Pony is making. "Come on! Do you mind?!"

"Spike, please. If the master wants to..." Rarity was interrupted as the Demon Pony chews some more. "Ugh, forgive me but he's right, master. Your chewing is making us hard to hear."

"I'm sorry but I got to agree." Twilight said with an annoyed sigh as she closes the book. Even the purple unicorn can't stand the chewing and the loud noises it's making some more. "It's hard to read and for the others to hear when you eat those chips."

"But they are my favorite." The Demon Pony said with a pouty look on his face. Nyx couldn't help but giggle, he's like a child when he himself get talked down to like that.

"Yes...but usually mommy wants some quiet when she reads." Nyx said to the Demon Pony with a giggle. "And no offense, you are being rude by chewing too loudly. But I don't want to come between you and your meal..."

"If you want, I can read later." Twilight suggests as the mare prepares to leave the room.

"Wait, you're leaving?" The Demon Pony ask Twilight in worry and concern. He doesn't want her to leave, the story was getting so good!

"Well, I can't read while you eat. But if you want to eat your chips later, you could."

"Aye, lad. The lass can either read later or ye can eat yer chips later...but not both." Brave Heart said with a nod. The Demon Pony stops chewing as he looks at his chips. For a moment, some of the others are worried that he would get upset again because of Twilight and Brave Heart's suggestion.

But the Demon pony put the bowl onto the cart as he said, "Well, all right, very well then." The others sigh in relief. For a moment, they were worried.

"Got to say, his hide rouses is most considered this evening." Caramel said with a nod.

"Right, not at all."

"Yeah, looks like you're doing better at the whole thing too." Spike remarks with a light chuckle, making Nyx nod in agreement.

"Yeah, that too." The Demon Pony said with a smile.

"Plus, his temper is so controlled." Soarin' said with a smile.

"Yes, thank you."

"Well, it's a good thing too. We hate for you all to get into another argument that could last few days too." Rarity said with a smile of approval. This time, a disaster has been averted.

"Also, we wouldn't want the master to write another letter of apology, right?" Caramel ask with a chuckle. Unfortunately, what he said made Goofy, Finn and jacobyel gasps in a panic, Nyx gulps in worry while Brave Heart slaps himself in annoyance. Trouble!

And for a good reason, the Demon Pony, hearing Caramel, frowns at the colt as he ask, "What do you mean?" As the master got out of the chair, jacobyel, Finn and Goofy leaves the room, making Applejack frowns upon them leaving. The jig is up.

"Err, I was referring to the letter that you made to Twilight! I got to say, never had i heard an apology so..."

"I didn't make any letter! What are you on about?!"

"Uh oh." Nyx whimpers as she hid behind Brave Heart, making the alicorn frowns at the freaked out Caramel. Him and his big mouth!

"Wait, I don't understand." Twilight said as she got out of her chair with a frown. "Are you taking your apology back? Why?"

"Because it wasn't my letter!" The Demon Pony snaps at Twilight angrily and annoyed.

"Yeah it was yours! Twilight has it in our room right now!" Spike exclaims to the Demon Pony with a frown.

"Oh yeah? Let me see this so-called letter!"

"All right, if you insist. Like Spike said, it's in my room right now." Twilight said, frowning as she leads the Demon Pony to her room. The mare is upset that the creature claims to not have any knowledge of writing a letter of apology to her at all.

Spike follows the two. Nyx was prepared to follow them but Applejack grabs her by the tail, frowning as she said, "Not so fast, little foaly! Ah know what yew, Brave Heart an' them fellers did. Yew got some explaining 'ta do!"

Nyx gulps a bit to Applejack as Brave Heart sighs. Busted!

-----------

Applejack, Nyx and Brave Heart came into the library, since this is the most likely place that jacobyel, Goofy and Finn will be hiding. The cowpony spots jacobyel hiding by the bookcase, saying, "Fer 'de love o' Celestia, jacobyel, come over here." The colt nods as he came out of hiding.

Brave Heart saw Goofy under the desk, saying, "Goofy, lad, yew can do better than that." The parasprite came out of his own hiding spot.

"Finn? I can see you up there, come down, Applejack is on to us." Nyx said gloomly as she saw Finn on top of the bookcase. The colt nods in sadness as he came down to join the others, especially the ones that came out of hiding.

"Boys an' Nyx, Ah knew 'dat 'this scheme was yers from 'de start but Ah didn't say none at first because Ah was hoping 'dat 'dis wouldn't turn out so bad." Applejack said sternly to the four, some of them looks down in shame, "Yer're are in hot water especially yew, Nyx.."

"But I didn't mean for this to get out of hand. I wanted mommy and the Demon Pony to make up! None of us mean any harm. I was the mastermind, the other boys was helping!"

"Ah know 'dat but Ah ain't 'de one y'all should apologize 'ta. Y'all better confess fer what happened because unless 'de truth is revealed, 'de master an' Twilight will look at each other wit' disturst fro' now on!"

jacobyel, Goofy and Finn frowns in sad and concerned. Brave Heart said, "She's right, lads. Ye better let me and Nyx do all the talking, and take the blame."

"No, I should take the blame, it was my idea." Nyx said, shedding tears. "Maybe if I'm lucky, I could get a time out...or maybe a kick out."

-----------------

Once in Twilight's room, the upset mare shows the letter to the Demon pony, saying, "There, written on your stationary."

The Demon pony reads the letter, looking more upset. Spike frowns while asking, "What now? You did write it, right? You can't deny it."

"I can so deny it! Someone wrote this with my pen! It's a forgery!" The Demon Pony exclaims furiously as he crumples the paper right up.

"Hang on, are you suggesting that I would do forge the letter?!" Twilight demands angrily to the Demon Pony. The mare can't believe that he would accuse her of forging the letter just to prove that she was right.

Just then, Nyx's group came into the room, looking in concern. jacobyel motions to Nyx to go on as she trots in, saying meekly, "Err, mommy? Mr. Demon Pony? My friends and I got a confession to make."

"Yep, it's about that letter that Twilight thought was from you." Goofy said with a gulp. "You see, the letter was..."

"Let us do the talking, lad." Brave Heart said to Goofy with a sigh before turning to the Demon Pony. "The letter was masterminded by..."

"Us! The whole thing was fraud, counterfeit, sham, fake and a forgery!" jacobyel exclaims as he motions to himself, Goofy and Finn, making most of the others gasps while Goofy and Fin nodded. Nyx and Brave Heart looks shocked. The trio are taking the blame for the whole thing just to protect the alicorn filly from the Demon Pony's wrath. "I worded it!"

"And Finn here..."

Goofy was cut off as jacobyel screams and run off. The parasprite saw Finn running off as well and turns to see the Demon Pony getting really angry. Goofy screams and run off with the mad master in hot pursuit.

"Ugh! I told them to let Nyx and me do all the talking." Brave Heart said with a groan of annoyance. Nyx looks worried for her friends, they are taking all the blame for something that was her whole idea the whole time.

"Nyx...did you have something to do with this?" Twilight ask Nyx in worry, making the filly look down in sadness. Looks like it's time to fess up.

Meanwhile, Goofy ran to the stairway and slid down the balcony. The Demon Pony, chasing him, run as he goes past the bookshelf, not seeing jacobyel who came out from behind it, shaking big time.

The Demon Pony kept on chasing the ones who dared to forged a letter in his name, looking angry each time. The monster goes by the table where Goofy was hidden. Once he has passed, the parasprite came out of hiding, flying right off.

The Demon Pony looks around and rush to the door entrance, opening it and looks outside. No sign of them. The master roars out furiously, "WHERE ARE YOU?!" He slams the door close, missing Finn who came out of a pile of leaves and running off.

Twilight, Nyx, Brave Heart and Applejack came into the living room, the trio are in here somewhere, obviously scared to reveal themselves. The cowpony filly said, "Come on, boys. We know y'all in here somewhere."

Twilight spots the trio, hiding under the table and shivering. The mare said gently, "I won't hurt you. Nyx and Brave Heart told me everything. "

"Yeah, why would you do such a thing anyway?" Spike ask the trio in concern.

jacobyel sighs as he explains, "We just wanted Twilight and the master to speak again. The reason why we take the blame is..." The colt was cut off as he gasps in horror. The Demon Pony came behind Twilight, Nyx and Spike, making jacobyel and the boys flinch and quiver in fear.

"Move out of my way." The Demon Pony growls to Twilight, Nyx and Spike who turns and saw him. "Those three has did an unforgivavle crime and must be punished."

"No, please, let them go! Don't hurt my friends!" Nyx begs to the Demon Pony in sadness. Her friends were taking the blame to keep her safe, she doesn't want to see them hurt.

"They have betrayed me! Why shouldn't I!?"

"Please, please!" Twilight sobs as she buries her head on his shoulder, calming down the Demon. "I don't want to see any of them harmed."

"Demon Pony...if ye harm a hair or coat on any of them, I won't talk to ye again once more!" Brave Heart exclaims to the Demon Pony sternly. The master sighs. He doesn't want to see Twilight and/or Brave Heart upset or saddened.

"Fine, they will be spared...but should they set foot in this castle again, they will answer to me!" The Demon Pony snaps furiously as he grabs jacobyel, Goofy and Finn with both hooves.

"Whoa! You're kicking them out?! That's harsh!" Spike exclaims in shock and alarm. Nyx looks horrified. She doesn't want her friends to get banished for something that isn't entirely their fault, they were only helping and taking the blame!

"Wait, they didn't mean to..." Twilight begins to say but the Demon Pony cuts her off in fury.

"SILENCE!" The Demon Pony roars as he drags the culprits to the balcony. Once outside, the master throw them outside, they landed safely on the snow outside. "And if I catch anyone giving them comfort, they will pay the price as well!"

Nyx sobs in sadness as she buries herself in her mother's coat. Her friends are gone and it's all her fault.

Outside, jacobyel, Goofy and Finn shivers from the cold weather as they trot (fly in Goofy's case) away from the castle. jacobyel ask his friends in sadness, "So what now? Where will we go?"

"Gawrsh, I guess we can go into town and beg for help." Goofy suggest sadly as the trio goes into the woods. They have been banished from the only home that they themselves ever known...

Yes, nobodiez, I am aware of that. Thank you. Time for the final part of the first segment.

Chapter 3: True Forgiveness

Applejack and the Cutie Mark Crusaders are washing the dishes, all of them are upset. Their friends Goofy, Finn and jacobyel has been banished, all because they took the blame for a plan that Nyx masterminded and which the trio helped out with along with Brave Heart. Worst yet, Twilight is once agtain upset with the Demon Pony for doing so unjustly.

"I cannot believe this is happening." Sweetie said in sadness.

"It's so unfair what 'de master did 'ta our friends. They were only helping Nyx out an' they took 'de blame 'ta protect her." Apple Bloom said in agreement.

"Eeyup, 'dis is too much than Ah can handle." Applejack said in sadness. "They done can't survive out there, everypony."

"Well, we can't do anything about it now." Caramel remarks making Applejack sighs as she looks out the window. The filly hopes that her friends are okay.

---------------------

In the woods, Goofy, Finn and jacobyel trot/fly some more to head to town. But since the trio has no notice of the woods, they end up getting lost and going around in circles. The trio kept on moving until they saw what appears to be a town.

"Look, it's up there, we made it!" Goofy exclaims with a smile.

"Yes, we are there! Did we ever doubt you? It's the town, it's..." Finn stops as he and the others find themselves at what appears to be a familiar home: the castle. "Town?"

---------------

"I still say they shouldn't be kicked out like that." Scootaloo said with a pouty look while Twilight, Spike, Nyx and Brave Heart joins the group in their conversion. "They can't make it out in this weather!"

"Yes, yes, a pity, but can you hardly blame the master?" Caramel ask his friends with a sigh. "Forgery is a crime and those trio pay the price."

"But it was my idea to begin with, I should be the one who is banished, not my friends!" Nyx sobs a bit, still feeling terrible for jacobyel, Goofy and Finn being kicked out for something that isn't entirely their fault.

"It's okay, I'm sure they would be al right." Spike said with a sigh while patting Nyx on the back in comfort.

"Oh, if someone has committed a crime, it was me." Twilight said in sadness. "Why, this wouldn't happen if I would've apologize in the first place."

"Shucks, Ah is 'de one who should've apologized." Applejack said in guilt. "Ah done knew about 'de forgery but kept quiet because Ah wanted so much fer yew an' 'de master 'ta forgive one another."

"Look, are we going to feel sorry fer ourselves or fix things?" Brave Heart ask his friends with a frown. "Because nothing will get fixed otherwise!"

"He's right. Banishment or no, I got to find them. I will ride after the trio, bring them back and..." Twilight said as she prepares to head out to go after jacobyel, Goofy and Finn. Just then, the mare look out the window, gasping as she saw a familiar trio trotting/flying towards the castle. "Look!"

"It's them, oh man, they look awful!" Nyx cries out in worry as she and Twilight gallops out the kitchen to greet their friends back.

"Wait, you can't! The master said..." Caramel exclaims in protest but hit a wall while runnign after the duo.

"We don't care what the master said, those trio are punished enough." Brave Heart said as he gallops to join Twilight and Nyx in helping his friends.

Outside, the trio looks at the castle, Finn looks confused as he remarks, "What do you know? The town looks like the castle. How long were we in there?"

"Uh, Finn? It is the castle! And after all that time of travelling..." Goofy said with a sigh while groaning. The parasprite is tired from all that travelling.

Twilight put her winter coat on and opens it, smiling at the colts and parasprite. The mare calls out, "Goofy, Finn, jacobyel! Come with me, we must get you by the fire!"

"Yes, come on in! We insist!" Nyx exclaims to her friends in worry.

During this time, the Demon Pony was pacing when he overheard Twilight and Nyx talking. The master looks down and saw a sight that made him furious: jacobyel, Goofy and Finn are back and they are supposed to be banished! Worst yet, the two fillies are helping them despite his orders!

The Demon Pony jumps over the balcony and lands on the roof, preparing to confront the problem...but stops for some reason to listen in.

"Hyuk, no! I rather freeze to death!" Goofy exclaims in worry and fear. "I can't face the master, he is a demon! The Demon Pony will hurt us if we go back inside the castle!"

"No, the master won't hurt ye, lads. I won't allow it." Brave Heart said to jacobyel, Goofy and Finn in assuration. "If the master tries anything, he shall answer to meself."

"Right, I will speak to him. He will let you three stay, I know of it. Deep down, the Demon Pony has a good heart." Twilight said gently as the Demon Pony listen in. "We let things get so out of hoof that you three end up suffering the most. Please, forgive me?"

"And me too?" Nyx ask the trio in sadness, referring to how they took the blame for something which is truly her own fault as well as going along with her plan in the first place.

"Awww, we wouldn't be good friends if we didn't forgive you both." Finn said with a smile as Goofy and jacobyel nods in agreement.

"Oh, thank you all." Twilight said while hugging jacobyel, Goofy and Finn happily. "If only I could've said my same words myself to him. Still, you poor things, let's get you inside right now."

As Twilight, Nyx and Brave Heart escort the colts and parasprite into the castle, the Demon Pony thought about what the first three said...and felt guilt. The truth is, it was his fault for being rude and a jerk in the first place. If only he would've apologize first and wasn't so stubborn...

And of course, jacobyel, Goofy and Finn. While they did the wrong thing, the trio meant no harm, they were trying to help their master and Twilight forgive one another, that's all.

Well, it's time for the Demon Pony to make things right.

----------

In the living room, Spike gave blankets to jacobyel, Finn and Goofy to help them get warmed while sitting by the fire. Caramel kept on the lookout for the Demon Pony. Rarity smiles while saying, "I must say. We did the right thing in doing this."

"Right, though the Demon Pony is going to get upset when he finds out we let those boys in." Spike said in concern, knowing that the Demon Pony will be furious when he finds out about this.

"Oh let him. If he has to banish everyone for doing the right thing, then I have no regrets."

Applejack came in, smiling as she said, "Okay, yew three, 'dat there fire will have y'all warm an' toasty again in no time."

"Any sign of the master?" Brave Heart ask Caramel curiously.

"No sign of him." Caramel responds to Brave Heart with a nod.

"I hope he isn't too upset." Twilight said a little worried.

"Oh, upset? Nonsense!" Of course, as Caramel continues onward, he is unaware that the Demon pony is on the balcony outside, right behind him. The others saw him and stood/sat there, shaking, looking worried or didn't react at all. "Well, I guess the master could react far worst than that. But I assure you, I won't be here when he arrives. No way, I will be far gone..."

Suddenly the Demon Pony opens the doors, causing Caramel to get hit by them and goes crashing into the wall. Spike yelps as he hides behind Rarity, "Yikes!"

"Master, listen, we can explain..." Rarity said nervously to the Demon Pony.

"Let me speak first!" The Demon Pony cuts off Rarity, making the filly gulps in worry. Surprisingly, the master isn't furious but looking guilty. "I...I have something to say to Twilight. I have been difficult and...okay, I admit it. I was aj jerk. I'm sorry, Twilight. Please...forgive me."

Twilight smiles while saying to the Demon Pony, "I forgive you." The master smiles back, happy for the forgiveness.

Nyx, looking downward, trots up to the Demon Pony, saying, "Mr. Demon Pony, sir? The whole forgery plan was my idea! They went along with it and took the blame to protect me. Please, punish me entirely! Don't send my friends away again!"

The Demon Pony blinks then sighs as he hugs Nyx, saying, "No one will be send away or punished. Although you did the wrong thing, I forgive you for trying to help."

"Really?"

"Really really."

Nyx sniffs while looking to the Demon Pony hopefully, asking, "Can...can I call you 'daddy'?"

Everyone else looks surprised or amused by the hopeful question. The Demon Pony blinks a bit then smiles while saying, "Of course, you may." The alicorn filly happily nuzzles him, looks like she finally got a daddy. The masterturns to the formerly banished trio, guilty for how he has treated them. "I know what you three did was wrong, going along with the whole plan...but you meant no harm as well so I forgive you too. Now I wish for forgivensss. Will you do so?" The trio nods rapidly, still scared.

"We all forgive you." Twilight said with a smile.

Brave Heart smiles as he adds, "I was also in the forgery plan, Master."

"Brave Heart? You mean...?" The Demon Pony ask, surprised that the Scottish alicorn colt was also in on the whole thing.

"Aye...but now that you've apologized to Twilight, I think we can put our differences aside."

"Gawrsh. I agree." Goofy said with a quick nod.

"I second the motion." jacobyel said in agreement.

"Now time fer a little victory fer me! However, this is not for the eyes of the mares." Brave Heart explains to the mares with a smirk.

Twilight, getting the idea, nods while saying, "No problem."

"Okay." Nyx said as she and the mares leave the room.

"Suit yourself, Brave Heart." Rarity said as she trots out of the room as well to avoid seeing what not be seen.

Once the mares leave, Brave Heart smirks. The colt boasts, "This is my way of saying I told yer so, Ben." Brave Heart dances a Highland gig around the Demon Pony and the other males, before he turns his flank to them and shakes it. "Feast yer eyes!"

"Ugh!" The Demon Pony exclaims in alarm and disgust.

Spike, feeling like the need to give, groans, "Oh no, he didn't!"

"Gawrsh, I'm blind!" Goofy yelps as he covers his own eyes in alarm.

"This is very barbaric!" jacobyel exclaims in alarm.

"I agree." Soarin' said with a frown. Why must Rainbow has a cousin like this?

"Pervert pony!" Caramel exclaims to Brave Heart with an angry scowl.

"And proud of it, too! Now...let's go down fer some grub." Brave Heart laughs madly as he trots right out of the room.

"Oh...uh...sure. At least Brave Heart's not a tumor..." The Demon Pony said with a chuckle. He spoke too soon as Brave Heart is heard singing.

Brave Heart: I'm a tumor, I'm a tumor
I'm a tumor, I'm a tumor, I'm a tumor
I'm a tumor, I'm a tumor, I'm a tumor
Oh, oh, oh, I'm a tumor, lad
!


Once Brave Heart is gone, the mares came back into the room. The Demon Pony trots by Twilight, smiling as he said, "Well, despite the unpleasantness, that was so easy. I feel happy now...happier than I can remember."

Twilight and the others smile as they watch him leave, the Demon Pony has apologize and forget. Goofy, Finn and jacobyel sigh in relief, they are no longer banished and can stay in the castle again, everything is back to normal.

Well, almost. Soarin' looks down in guilt. He recalls avoiding Kairi ever since the incident from dinner. Perhaps the colt was wrong to blame her, it isn't her fault that her hearing isn't doing well and such.

"Oh man, every pony is able to forgive...but me." Soarin' said with a sad sigh.

"Shucks, ain't too late 'ta do anything about it, Soarin'." Applejack said to Soarin' with a grin. The filly is right, perhaps now is the time to set things right between him and Kairi.

-------------

In the dining room, Kairi is still upset about what happened especially since Soarin' still hasn't forgiven her, maybe he never will. Just then Applejack and the CMC came in, the filly grins while saying, "Hey, Kairi! We're in fer a treat."

"Really, what is it?" Kairi ask Applejack curiously.

"Goofy, Finn and jacobyel is going 'ta tell us about their adventures in the forest. Trust me, yew will beeing an old colleague there, sugarcube."

"Eh? An old collie? Why would I see a dog?"

"Colleague, Kairi, colleague." Applejack speaks loudly, correcting her.

"Trust us, yew will love it." Apple Bloom said as her friends smile eagerly.

----------

Later on, the servants gather around at the table as the formerly banished trio explain what happened beyond the forest. Goofy explains his part, "Gawrsh, we could see the white of their eyes..."

"Right, hear their vicious panting as well as their smelly, carnivorous, looping breath..." jacobyel said, making the servants gasps a bit.

"Yeah, despite that, we go forth into the night with nothing to scare us. Not even Houndoom or anything else." Finn said with a smile. Just then Applejack smirks and sneezes, causing him, Goofy and jacobyel to scream in fright.

"Shucks, sorry about 'dat." Applejack said with a giggle.

"Well, still, don't do that again." Rarity said with a sigh to her friend.

"Well, come on, go on. You said to want to forgive, right?" Caramel points out to Soarin' sternly.

"Come on, give me time, give me time!" Soairn' exclaims to Caramel in annoyance, yelping as the Earth pony push him towards Kairi. Well, it's now or never. The Pegasus colt glances to the filly while asking, pretending to be annoyed, "What? You came closer to hear better."

"What? Oh, I have not!" Kairi exclaims in annoyance. Great, now Soarin' is starting this again?

"Aha! So you do admit it! You came close to shine brighter from your coat!"

"I only came closer to work more closely with you, good friend."

Soarin' stares at Kairi and turns to his friends who grin at him. The colt smiles while saying, "Well, we do work great together, right? Listen, Kairi, sorry for acting like a jerk before. Please forgive me."

"You just had to ask." Kairi said with a smile. Good, the two has apologize and forgiven one another. Now everything is back to normal.

--------------------------

It was evenign as everyone is on the couch, lookign at the view outside. Twilight smiles as Nyx sat near the Demon Pony, nuzzling near her newfound daddy, taking a snooze.

"Everything looks so peaceful." Twilight said with a smile.

"Eeyp, goes 'to show 'dat fer every problem, a solution is often express in just a single word." Applejack said with a nod.

"Forgiveness. To put past differences aside." jacobyel said speaking from the dictionary...and this time, no one seems to mind. Twilight and the Demon Pony smile to each other, what jacobyel said is so true.

"Well, it's quite a lovely evening, right?" Soarin' ask in pretend to Twilight and the Demon Pony. "Perhaps you two like to go out onto the veranda. The rest of us will prepare the 'ordure's.'"

"Huh? Ordure's? What do you mean?" Caramel ask confused, not sure what Soarin' meant. But the Pegasus colt nudges him, making the Earth pony get the idea. "Oh yes, those ordure's! Right, let's go."

"Yes, come on, Spike." Rarity said playfully as the others but the sleeping Nyx leave. It's obvious that Twilight and the Demon Pony want a chance to be along.

The Demon Pony with a grin got up from his seat with Twilight using her magic to put Nyx on his back. The master offer his past to the mare who takes it, the two walk out to the balcony.

"Wow, it's warm now..." The Demon Pony said with a smile and a sigh.

"Right, it will be spring soon." Twilight said with a giggle. She saw a butterfly which lands on one of her hooves, the mare shows it to the Demon Pony.

"Beautiful..."

The Demon Pony takes Twilight by the paws, the two smiles as Nyx slept on her daddy's back. Someday...the couple will fall in love and the spell will be broken at last...

Author's note
Well, forgivenss is given and everything is back to normal. In the next chapter, we see a song that involves listening with our hearts.

What Brave Heart did when the mares left is a reference to Brave. Also, the tumor thing is a reference to Family Guy.

Chapter 3: Listen With Our Hearts

Twilight frowns as she trots onto the balcony, looking at the view of horizon. The mare just had an argument with the Demon Pony and he is still upset. As Twilight sighs, she begins to sing.

Twilight: There are times I think
That no one seems to listen
There are times I think they listen
but don't hear
There are times I think they hear
But something's missing
The thoughts behind the words aren't clear
So, I think they're saying
something they're not saying


Twilight remembers how the Demon Pony stomp across the room, looking furiously. He turns to Twilight and yells at the mare who turn around, upset herself. The Demon Pony tehn leaves the room in anger, slamming the door on his way out.

They think I mean something
I don't mean at all
Do we raise our voice miscommunicating?
Or simply say nothing at all


Twilight then trots to the birds. The Demon Pony is watching her, frowning through the window. He begins closing the curtain and pace around a bit. The master, although still angry, pauses as his angered face faded. Perhaps he is wrong to yell at Twilight like that.

I can hear you, you can hear me
When we listen with our hearts
I understand you, you understand me
That's the place where we can start
Words of kindness and forgiveness
Bring us closer, not apart
When we speak our minds
And listen with our hearts


The Demon Pony then watch Twilight through the window. The mare is using her magic to feed the birds and squirrels. Twilight heads to the tree, still upset and wondering if the Demon Pony will apologize. Of course, she didn't see him a few feet behind her at first.

I can hear you, you can hear me
When we listen with our hearts
I understand you, you understand me
That's the place where we can start


Twilight turns and saw the Demon Pony. As the animals watch, the two goes to each others, smiling. They decide to forgive and get along again. After all, it isn't one or the other's fault, right?

Words of kindness and forgiveness
Bring us closer, not apart
When we speak our minds
And listen with our hearts


In the living room, Twilight was reading a book to the Demon Pony who is listening with Nyx who is sitting on his back. As she turns a page, the master smiles at the book and back to her, the Demon Pony kept on with the listening.
Later, Twilight and the Demon Pony walks through the hallway, talking about other stops as they listened with their hearts well.

And listen with our hearts

Author's note
Well, folks, that goes to show what happens when you listen with your heart. In the next chapter, which is part 1 of 'Rainbow's Folly', it is Soarin' and Rainbow Dash's anniversary and the colt is nervous. Nervous that he asked Twilight for help in the whole thing. Of course, when Rainbow herself saw what happened, she presume the worst. Read, review and suggest!

Rainbow's Frolly

Chapter 4: Soarin's Problem

It was another day in the castle as Twilight, Spike and Nyx were walking through a hallway, speaking with Brave Heart. The colt ask in interest, "So, Twilight, Spike, Nyx...I hear ye three are from Ponyville, eh?"

"That's right, Brave Heart." Twilight said with a nod.

"Mommy lived there most of her life and so did I." Nyx remarks to Brave Heart with a smile on her face.

"Me, too. Practically hatched and raised there." Spike adds in.

"Really?" Brave Heart ask with an arch of the eyebrow. "So, have you three by any chance happen to have met an arrogant, stubborn, witless, sadistic pony by the name of...Boris the Animal?"

"Huh? Who?" Twilight ask Brave Heart. She isn't sure what the alicorn was referring to at first.

"Boris the Animal. Have you ever heard of him?"

"We sort of know *a* pony by the name of Boris, but I don't know if it's the Boris you're talking about. What does he look like?" Spike ask Brave Heart curiously.

"Red coat, jet black mane and tail, sky blue eyes and has a rifle for a cutie mark-." Brave Heart begins to explain Boris the Animal's description until Twilight interrupts him.

"That description matches the Boris I know." Twilight responds with a frown on her face.

"A-ha! So you do know of Boris the Animal, eh?"

Nyx giggles, "Ha ha ha ha ha ha."

Brave Heart, confused, ask Nyx, "What's so funny, Nyxie?"

"Nothing...except...we've never heard Boris being called 'the Animal' before."

"I can imagine so. Because calling him Boris the Animal would make him very, very mad."

"Yeah, I bet that he'd go like this." Spike chuckles then he begins imitating Boris. "It's...just...Boris!"

"Nice Boris imitation, Spike." Nyx said to Spike with a laugh.

"I do my best."

"How do you know Boris?" Brave Heart ask the trio, knowing that they must've known Boris unfortunately.

Twilight roll her eyes as she explains, "He...has his eyes set on me."

"What do you mean?"

"He thinks that I will become his wife and marry him."

"I had a slight feeling about that. Boris had always considered himself a mare's-colt. But I never considered him a one-filly stallion. In my opinion, he's just all bark and no bite." Brave Heart remarks to Twilight with a frown.

"You've met him before?" Spike ask Brave Heart in surprise.

"More or less. I beat him in a fencing contest that consisted of using our horns as swords. And he was very humiliated by that defeat. He swore one day to get revenge on me, but so far...he hasn't even come close to even...getting his retribution towards me."

"So you're not afraid of him?" Nyx ask Boris curiously.

"Not...at all. But anyway, let's head down to the kitchen...me stomach's growling like a bear." Brave Heart remarks as the trio continues on their way.

"Mine, too." Spike said as he can hear his own stomach growling. The dragon is mighty hungry.

------------

Goofy came into a room, seeing Rainbow dusting with a smile on her face. In worry, the parasprite ask, "Hey, Rainbow, you all right? You look dizzy with fever."

"Oh, well, things aren't what they seem for I am dizzy with love." Rainbow chuckles as she dust past Goofy who is about to sneeze from the dust. "Yeah, the dusting is one dirty job and somebody gotta do it, right?"

"Rainbow Dash, time is of the essence. We must have this room..." Caramel said as he came into the room. Without warning, Goofy sneezes right onto the colt, spilling black ink right onto him in the progress. "...spotless."

Twilight, Nyx and Spike chose that time to come into the room with ice cream from the kitchen. They saw Caramel leaving with ink on himself. The dragon said, "Whoa, talk about your inky surprises."

"Twilight! Do you, Nyx or Spike know what tomorrow is?" Rainbow ask Twilight with a smile.

"Is it Saturday?" Nyx ask Rainbow curiously. "I like Saturday. Gives time to have fun."

"Man, Saturday will be fun, the one tomorrow is one liek no other because it's the fifth anniversary of first day with Soarin', the love of my life!"

"Wow, that must be great." Twilight said to Rainbow while licking her ice cream.

"Yeah, one problem though: I'm sure he has great plans for our evening." Rainbow said with a worried look on her face.

"Okay, so he may have something cool happening. Why is that a problem?" Spike ask Rainbow puzzled.

"I gotta look my best! Should I comb my mane? Man, no dobut he would take me on a moonlight serenade...or maybe a quiet delicate dinner for two? Ooooh, Twilight! What do you think?"

"Well, I'm sure whatever it is, it will be a big surprise." Twilight assures Rainbow as she got a book and leaves the library with Nyx and Spike. After all, Soarin' must've got something big planned, right?

--------------

"Wait, our anniversary?" Soarin' ask in shock and alarm in the living Room. Twilight's group has reminded the colt of the anniversary of his and Rainbow.

"Right, that certain anniversary. You remember what it is, right?" Nyx ask Soarin' puzzled, calming the colt down.

"Oh yeah, that. The first anniversary of our fifth date. How does Tuesday sound?"

"Err, Soarin'? It's the fifth anniversary of your first date. And it's Saturday." Twilight corrects Soarin', making him look concerned.

"Wait, hang on. I think I got my mane in my ear. For a moment I thought you said..."

"Saturday and I did say it."

"Oh, goodness no, that's tomorrow...tomorrow!" Soarin' gasps in shock and alarm. Saturday is tomorrow?! "Gah! Oh, I am in hot water, out of the sky!"

"What? You did have something prepared, right?" Spike ask Soarin' puzzled.

"Yes, she may be expecting something special." Twilight said with a nod. She, Nyx and Spike suspects that Soarin' may have forgotten the anniversary by mistake.

"Oh, yes, I knew that..sort of..." Soarin' said sheepishly, trying to reassure himself that everything will be fine. The colt flew off to the dining room and get some roses from the vase. "So much to prepare! I must have flowers." Soarin' then heads off to the bathroom, cleaning himself off. "I gotta bathe, I must polish. There must be music, moonlight...I will tell her...tell her...oh man! What should I tell her?! I must have the speech, speech!"

"Yep, he forgot." Nyx said to Twilight and Spike with a giggle.

----------

In the library, Soarin' was there, trying to think up what romantic speech to write for Rainbow. But no matter what happens, the colt kept up coming up with dead ends.

"'Rainbow, you are so rainbow...' No, no. 'Rainbow, words cannot express...'" Soarin' groans and crinkles up the paper in frustration. "'My one and only my...my...'"

Soarin' frowns a bit, what can he say? Just then the Pegasus pony felt the window blowing from the window, the door is opened slightly. Then he smell something and gasps in horror: the paper is too close to the candle that Soarin' is using...and it is burning up!

Frantically, Soarin' tries to put the paper out but the wind blew the burning paper right to the bookshelf, causing the books to burn like mad. The colt screams out in terror, "Fire, fire, fire!"

Applejack and Apple Bloom saw smoke coming from the room and came inside to see tfire on the bookshelf. The filly gasps, "Oh no! Apple Bloom, git yer friends an' 'de others, git a lot of water, worry!"

Apple Bloom nods and rush off to get some help. Owen, Rarity, Fluttershy and Dexter came in with buckets to help out out the water like mad.

"Okay, ponies, calm down and..." Caramel begins to say as he came into the room upon hearing the commotion> The colt saw the fire happening, then screams in terror, "Gah, not good! Ponies, single file! Containers to the front of the line, hurry!"

Caramel watch as the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Wind Whistler, Surprise and the Tales Ponies rush in with cups of water, they begin filling up the bowl while Soarin' works on pushing the ladder, beginning to help Dexter carry the bucket but the duo is having trouble doing so.

Twilight, Nyx and Spike came in and saw the spoke, gasping in shock and alarm. Their friends need some help. The mare gallops to the ladder, calling out, "Applejack, I need your teapot!"

"What?" Applejack ask in worry as she carries the teapot over to the mare. Twilight climbs up the ladder as her friend points out, "But Ah done is carrying 'de master's tea! What will he say if..."

"Would you like to explain more as to why you let the castle burned down?!" Spike points out to Twilight. The filly knew that the dragon has a point so she gave the teapoty to the mare who uses her magic to pour the tea right onto the fire, putting it out.

"Phew!" Nyx exclaims as the others cheers for her, especially Soarin' who sighs in relief with the fire now over.

"Heehaw! Yew've saved us, Twilight! Nice work!" Applejack exclaims with a smile. With the fire taken care of, most of the servants leave the room to get back to whatever it is that they were doing.

"Okay, the show is over, nothing to see here, move along. All right if I might ask as to who was responsible for..." Caramel begins to ask, wanting to know who is responsible for the fire. But Soarin' came towards him and closes the door in the colt's face, cutting him off.

"Twilight, I can't thank you enough. Well, I can but saying...thank you, thank you, thank you..." Soarin' said, sighing to Twilight while thanking her for stopping that disaster.

"Somehow, I think you may have a hoof in the fire though by accident." Twilight said as she picks up the burned paper. "What were you doing anyway?"

"Oh, well. I was working on a speech to give to Rainbow for our anniversary."

"Awww, that sounded so romantic." Nyx said to Soarin' with a smile on her face.

"Yes, it would've...but I can't figure out what to say." Soarin' said in frustration.

"Well, it can't be that difficult." Twilight said to Soarin' in concern. The mare is not sure why her friend is having difficulty saying what he must to his love Rainbow Dash. "Hyst sat what is in your heart."

"Twilight, face it. You don't know much about mares."

"Trust me, Soarin', I know a little."

"Forgive, I gotta rehearse." Soarin' said as he clears his throat and begins to practice. "'Rainbow Dash, your lips are red of the reddest, red rose'. How does that sound?"

"Rehearsed." Twilight said with a shrug.

"Yet not enough romance." Spike comments making the fillies glare at him. "What? It is!"

"Ha, impossible!" Soarin' exclaims to the group with a groan of despair, meaning that it's impossible to wrote a speech of romance to Rainbow.

"Just tell her how you feel, what's so bad about that?" Twilight ask Soarin', wondering why her fiend couldn't just tell the mare how she feels and all that.

"Oh man, I cannot speak the truth which is in my heart. She would never buy it. There isn't any hope..."

As the group walk off, Nyx ask Soarin' with a frown, "Soarin', how could you say those things?"

"Yeah, I mean you didn't have trouble when it comes to speaking romance before." Spike said with a nod.

"To be honest, words of love flow like water, but sincerity?" Soarin' ask his friend in frustration. "Impossible!"

"Look, I will help you find the words to help speak your feelings." Twilight suggests to Soarin' with a smile. The mare wants to help her friend get himself ready for his big moment with Rainbow. "Just tell me everything you know about that first date and I will help you put your deepest, most honest feelings into words."

"Whoa! Twilight, you are send by the skies above! One beautiful angel from above. Okay, let us begin. But we better not do it here though. Rainbow might see us and know what we're doing."

Soarin' takes Twilight by the hoof to walk by her. Nyx and Spike shrugs as they head off, knowing that the two need to be alone to help Soarin' prepare for his anniversary with Rainbow.

Unknown to the four though, Rainbow was flying in the hallway at that moment, thinking about her anniversary when she overheard Soarin's voice. Out of concern, the filly flew off and hid in time. She peeks out to see her colt-friend and Twilight leaving the area, talking.

"Come, my love we shall, as they say, make beautiful music together." Soarin' jokes to Twilight making the mare giggle. Rainbow was watching them leave, gasping in shock. To her, it doesn't seem possible...but it.

"Oh man! That jerk Twilight...she pretended to be my friend just to ignites this burning passion and my beloved Soarin'." Rainbow said with a sad sigh. For the mare, she believes that Twilight is stealing Soarin' away from her!

-----------

Outside at the balcony, Soarin' was explaining what he and Rainbow did on their date to Twilight. The purple unicorn listens as her friends explains, "It was one great night of magic. I began my serenade."

Soarin' begins glidign his wings downward, humming the music that he sang to Rainbow with Twilight listening. Unfortunately, so is the cyan Pegasus pony who kept on spying, presuming the worst.

"Ugh! He is serenading that awful horn head...just like he did with me..." Rainbow mumbles to herself in anger, hurt and betrayal. The mare kept watching as Soarin' continues explaining as he held Twilight by the hoof while the two trot on.

"Then we walked together into the night..."

Rainbow, still spying, came out of a pile of snow next, growling, "And those two trot the same way that we trot!" The Pegasus pony is feeling more betrayed and hurt by the moment.

"And the evening, we finish things up with a romantic sleigh through the snow in the moonlight." Soarin' said with a happy sigh. He remembers that first date all so well.

"Well, tomorrow night, thatwill happen and I will help you do so." Twilight said with a smile. Rainbow's heart feels like it has been blasted by magic and eaten by Timberwolves as she continues watching by the stairway.

Rainbow shed a few tears. This cannot be. Her love cannot be abandoning her for Twilight...could he?

---------------------------

Next, Twilight sat in a chair, wanting to help write the words to help Soarin' make his speech for Rainbow. The mare ask her colt who is nearby, looking nervous, "All right, can you tell me how you honestly feel about her?"

"I...err...she was...oh, I can't!" Soarin' exclaims in frustration. How can he tell Rainbow what he himself wants to tell her from his heart? It's still impossible to him!

"You can. Tell you what, we will make it easier. Just pretend that I am Rainbow Dash. That could help."

Speaking of Rainbow, the jealous and heartbroken mare was by the door, watching as she gasps in shock, "She got no shame! Oh man, to think, I was hoping that egghead will free us from this spell that we're under!"

"Just tell me everything you tell her." Twilight insists to Soarin' with a smile, both are unaware that the filly has sneak into the room and hid behind the bookshelf.

"Well, it's so difficult. I want to...you must know I want to more than anything." Soarin' said with a sigh, trying to be brave but is having trouble to.

"Oh no...he weakens under that wretched unicorn's spell!" Rainbow gasps in horror. She watches as Soarin' puts on a brave face. The colt is ready, willing to do anything to prove his love to Rainbow, unaware that she's watching and believing the wrong thing.

"All right, I am ready. I shall do it!"

"The evil power is too great for my love!"

Rainbow flew out of the room, sobbing in sadness. She believes the worst: her love has fallen for Twilight! The filly flew away, unaware that she's pasting Brave Heart who saw her flying off, making the alicorn colt frown in concern. What just happened?

Brave Heart storms the room, demanding to Twilight and Soarin', "Twilight. Soarin'. What are ya doing?"

"What are you doing?" Soarin' ask Brave Heart as Twilight watch on, both are wondering what's this all about. The colt came in, looking upset for some reason.

"No, what arrgh ya doing?!"

"What are you doing?"

"No, what ARRGH...ya doing?!" Brave Heart demands to Soarin' in anger.

"What are you doing?" Soarin' demands right back. The colt of course looks confused as he ask, "Uh...where do I get the feeling that this is just practice for another one of JusSonic's Pirates of the Caribbean fanmakes?"

Brave Heart, confused, ask Soarin', "What are you talking about? And are you turning into Pinkie Pie?"

"No, I'm not turning into Pinkie Pie."

"Oh, that's good. Now what's going on? I was just flying by, when I noticed Rainbow flying past me...crying."

"What?!" Twilight ask in shock and alarm. Did Rainbow saw the surprise that she and Soarin' are planning for her?! Or did something else happen?!

"Rainbow was crying? Why?" Soarin' ask Brave Heart dumbstruck.

"That's what I want to know. Soarin', Twilight...I want the truth out of ye two. What happened?" Brave Heart demands to the two more than he asked.

"Should we tell him, Soarin'?" Twilight ask Soarin', wondering if it's a good idea to spoil the surprise to Brave Heart.

Soarin' sighs as he answers, "Yeah, we should Twilight. When Brave Heart wants the truth, you always give him the truth. Okay, here it goes..."

Author's note
Hoo boy, Rainbow thinks that Soarin' has betrayed her and is heartbroken, misunderstanding the whole thing. In the next chapter, as the colt make preparations, Rainbow tries to ruin things, unaware of what's going on. And what's with Spike and that mirror? Read, review and suggest.

Boris the Animal is a reference to a nickname that a certain alien villain hated in the movie Men in Black III.

Brave Heart's uproar with Soarin' has references to a future Pirates series which has Soarin' himself in the role of Jack Sparrow.

Chapter 6: Heartbroken Revenge

Spike walks through a hallway, minding his own business when he saw a mirror nearby. The dragon grins as he takes it and looks at his reflections.

"Well, who's so that handsome devil?" Spike ask as he looks into his mirror. Suddenly without warning the reflections morphs into...

"Daddy!" A familiar identifical dragon appears in the mirror as he yells to Spike.

"Ahh!" Spike exclaims as he drops the mirror in fright.

"Spike? What's up?" Nyx ask Spike puzzled as she overheard him yelling. The little filly is curious as to what has happened.

"Err..." Spike said as he picks up the mirror and carefully places it behind his back. "Nothing...just got startled, that's all."

"Oh, okay. You sure you are okay?"

"Yes, I'm fine, really."

Nyx shrugs as she heads off, thinking that nothing is wrong with Spike. The dragon watch, wondering if the filly has heard the reflection or not.

"Can't hear you, pops." Lorcan taunts Spike making the dragon look at the mirror once more. "Remember, I'm in your head."

"What do you want!" Spike demands more than he ask to his formerly discorded self.

"Ohh, what? You don't have time for your own son? I'm..." Lorcan Hyde spoke in a sing-song voice now, "soooo sad."

"Hyde!" Spike exclaims as he glares at the mirror, looking at the being that he himself used to be thanks to Discord.

"Oh come on Daddy. Not pleased to see your own son?"

"No! Get out of my head!"

"Come on, Daddy! It'll be fun." Lorcan Hyde taunts Spike evilly, making the dragon nervous. Why won't this creep leave him alone?

Spike, desperate whilst sweating, yells out, "I'M NOT SCARED OF YOU!"

LH quietly mumbles, "Yes, you are. Coming to get ya, daddy."

Lorcan Hyde then break through the mirror and grab Spike by the neck, who blinks to see LH still in the mirror.

"Bit of a imagination you have there, Daddy. I've seen it." Lorcan Hyde remarks madly to Spike as he laughs. The baby dragon, after many attempts to slience him, throws the mirror at the wall, breaking it, LH's laughter immediately fading.

Spike sighs a bit as he wipes some sweat off. The baby dragon hopes that's the last time he sees that...that thing!

---------------

"Oh, so that's what was going on." Brave Heart sighs in concern as Twilight and Soarin' explains what they are really up to. "Too bad Rainbow will not be so easy to convince."

"Yeah, I know. So...how are we gonna get Rainbow to understand what was going on?" Soarin' said in concern.

"I don't know yet. I'm still a stranger to Equestrian love rituals...however, I can help ye out."

"You can?" Twilight ask Brave Heart in surprise and hope.

"Ye have me word on it, Twilight, or my name is not Brave Heart, son of Strong Wind...and it is. Now...let's begin the plan." Brave Heart said with a grin, ready to help the two in the preparations for the anniversary of his cousin and Soarin'.

------------------------

Soarin' search the hallway. Good, Rainbow isn't around. The colt then signals a cat named Preppo, a member of a band called Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem, who came over.

Soarin' trots over to Preppo as he said, "Okay, Brave Heart recommend you because you are the best so remember, if Rainbow sees you, you pretend that you don't see her. I don't know you, you don't me, got it."

"Yes, got it." Preppo said with a nod, getting the idea.

"Right, now at 9:47, you and your band..."

"Soarin'?" Rainbow ask with a frown as she came to Rainbow. "And what are you doing with that cat?"

"Err, what cat?" Soarin' ask innocently as he quickly hides Preppo from sight. The colt doesn't want his love to ruin the surprise! Rainbow trots up to him, giving him an evil eye. "I don't see any cat."

"Soarin'!" Twilight calls from top of the stairs. "You were going to see me, right?"

"Rainbow!" Brave Heart exclaims as he flies over and pulls his cousin away. "Good to find ye, lass. Listen, I need help in making some souvenirs to send to me kin back home. Come with me, will ye?"

"Relax, my dear. You must remember, things aren't always what they appear." Soarin' assures Rainbow with a smile. The filly scowls as she leaves with Brave Heart. The alicorn colt got a bit worried, knowing that his cousin has truly misunderstood what's going on, thinking that Twilight is now with Soarin'.

Hopefully things don't go to a head.

-------------

Applejack was in another hallway, not minding a thing when she hears someone crying. The filly turns to see whose is crying and saw Rainbow, who got away form her cousin, crying while sitting with her back against the wall.

"Well, Rainbow Dash, what is 'dis now?" Applejack ask Rainbow in concern. "What's 'de matter? What's with 'de tears now?"

"Tears? I don't got any." Rainbow said though it is obvious that she is still crying.

"Come on, Don't lie 'ta lil' ol' me. Tell me what's bothering yew. I am sure 'dat whatever it is, 'de whole problem ain't bad as all 'dat."

"Oh, Applejack, if you were in my horseshoes and you just lost the stallion of your dreams, you would cry too."

Applejack is surprised, wondering why Rainbow thinks that Soarin' has left her. The filly helps her friend up and trots with her, saying, "Rainbow sugar cube, if Ah were yew, Ah wouldn't have trouble with stallions whatsoever."

"But the love of my life isn't no more...and I don't know how to get him back." Rainbow said with a sigh. She needs some help but from who? Besides Brave Heart. The cousin kept changing the subject whenever the filly kept trying to explain her problem to him.

So who else can Rainbow can talk to for help?

--------------

Rainbow has explained her problem to Goofy, about the possibility of losing Soarin' to Twilight, in a room. The parasprite, deciding to help out, suggests, "Gawrsh, Rainbow. I may not be an expert in love but in some books, the stallion won't respond unless he has no choice...or unless he feels threatened in some way."

"I don't get it, Goofy." Rainbow said puzzled, wondering what Goofy is on about.

"Hyuk, jealously is a powerful of all emotions! When you make him jealous, then Soarin' will be in your complete control!"

"Oh yeah, that's a great idea! Thanks!"

Rainbow flew off in determination to help get Soarin' back: by making him healous. Goofy smiles while saying, "Hey, when it comes to love, I wrote the book...literally! Hyuk!"

------------------

Twilight and Soarin' is talking to Owen in the dining room, needless his help to pull the sleigh part for the anniversary, insisting that is' important. Of course, the big Earth pony frowns as he remarks, "Soarin', come on! That's highly irregular! I haven't heard of such nonsense!"

"Owen, I need your help." Soarin' insists to Owen in concern.

"I got a big post for the master, I can't abandon it for this kind of thing! No way, goes against the rules after all!"

"Owen, this is for a higher cause...this time, the book is the book of love." Twilight explains to Owen with a smile, trying to convince him to help out Soarin' in his anniversary.

"That is dumb and ridiculous!" Owen exclaims with a scoff. He simply refuses to take any help in this anniversary.

Brave Heart came in, asking Twilight and Soarin', "What's going in here?"

"Owen won't help in pulling the sleigh, saying it goes against the book and he won't abandon his post." Soarin' explains to Brave Heart with a groan. The alicorn colt pauses then gave a mischievous smirk.

"Oh, really? Well, Owen, Soarin' only thought that this might serve as a grand less gesture in yer part, especially since I've heard that the master is thinking of downsizing a certain part of his workforce."

"Brave Heart." Twilight said to Brave Heart with a frown. Of course, what the colt said caught Owen's attention, making him worry.

"Well, I've heard something like that...I know ponies like the back of me kilt." Brave Heart said with a slight chuckle.

"Wait, what again?" Owen ask Brave Heart in worry. From what the Scottish pony is suggesting, the Earth pony may be losing his job sometime soon! "Roth balling the fleet, really?"

"It's true, I have certain connections...but maybe this Scottish pony could pull a certain strings..."

"Well, if you put it that way...Soarin', I am your service!"

Soarin' smiles eagerly. Brave Heart's influence has convicned Owen into pulling the sleigh, good! The colt exclaims, "Thanks, Brave Heart!"

"No problem, it's the least me can do." Brave Heart said with a slight chuckle.

"All right, perfect! All we gotta do is..."

"Soarin'!" Caramel scowls as he came into the room, much to the group's notice. "What's going on here? Why isn't the master..." The colt stops as he saw Rainbow smiling at him, in a weird way. "Oh, hey Rainbow Dash. Why isn't the master's..."

Of course, Rainbow kept on smiling at Caramel in a weird way while saying in a sly voice, "Hey, Caramel." Of course, the mare is trying to hit on the colt in hope to make Soarin' jealous.

"Yikes, it's her! Pretend that you don't see her." Soarin' said to Owen quietly as the two, Brave Heart and Twilight turns around, trying to ignore Rainbow who is pretending to flirt with Caramel, trying to make her love jealous.

"I have been looking all for you, you big hunk."

"You have, really? Why?" Caramel ask, blushing a bit while clearing his throat.

"Come on, isn't it obvious? You're so...so...so..." Rainbow said as she glances to Soarin' who is still trying to ignore her.

"So...so...I am so what? Come on, tell me!"

"Oh, you are so magnficient...so...how you say, full with life?"

"Soarin'?" Twilight whispers to the two in concern, wondering what Rainbow is doing.

"We better ignore her still." Soarin' said, hushing the others.

Caramel kept on blushing as Rainbow kept on flirting with him. The colt said, "Well, I do, it's true. I do my best to keep up with the times after all."

"Ugh, this is getting embarrassing. Perhaps we should leave." Twilight said quietly, it's difficult to plan the anniversary with Rainbow's misunderstanding attempts. The others agree as they begin to leave the room with the purple unicorn.

"I mean, you are in charge yet all so less sense of humor. Tell me your secret." Rainbow said slyly to Caramel. The filly is still trying to flirt with him in hope that her plan will work.

"Well, Rainbow, the secret of my common day is timing." Caramel said to Rainbow while blushing some more.

"Err, what is Rainbow trying to do?" Twilight ask Soarin' and Brave Heart puzzled as the group kept on leaving the room.

"Most likely trying to get out of her duties, I know I would want to get out of them. Come on." Soarin' said as the group all leave the room.

"Hoo boy, to be honest, lad, Rainbow is still misunderstanding this whole thing, she is trying to make Soarin' here jealous." Brave Heart said quietly to Twilight and Soarin'. The latter colt want to explain to Rainbow how this isn't what it looks like but he must keep the surprise that he himself has in store for the filly a secret.

Of course, Rainbow watch the group leave, making her upset. Not only did her plan to make her love jealous didn't work, but even Brave Heart is in to what Twilight and Soarin' are doing in the 'relationship'.

"Well, this is interesting, Rainbow, I appreciate what you're doing but I really must insist." Caramel said with a goofy smile.

"Oh man! He is impossible!" Rainbow snarls furiously as she flew off in anger, not caring that Caramel is left standing there.

"I insist that you return to your duties right now." Caramel turns and saw that Rainbow has left. "Oh...well, that's much better. Odd though but still."

"Keep up the good work. We'll get this anniversary going in no time." Brave Heart said as he leaves Soarin', Twilight and Owen to their part of the anniversary. Then Brave Heart notices Spike looking into the mirror, different than the one that he was looking into before. "Hmm. What's Spike doing?"

---------------------

Soarin' works with building a sled with Owen in the storage. The Pegasus pony smiles while he kept on building, saying, "All right, more..."

"Well, this is unusual, not found in the code anywhere." Owen said to Caramel with a puzzled look on his face.

"This baby is almost done. Only one more minor adjustment and trust me, even you won't feel a thing!"

Soarin' kept on putting the final adjustment to the sled...not noticing that Rainbow is watching him from a window, looking more jealous and upset by the moment.

----------------

Spike looks into the mirror, Lorcan Hyde is back and that creep is still taunting him. Just then Brave Heart appears, remarking in amusement, "Lookin' in the mirror, eh, Spike? You must have quite the reflection."

"Something like that, Brave Heart." Spike said to Brave Heart with a sigh.

Brave Heart smirks devilishly as he got into the mirror, adding his own reflection into the thing. Lorcan Hyde looks frightened as he ask, "What are you doing?!"

"Ooh, yes. Don't I look like a handsome alicorn colt? Mmm-hmm. Yep. And there's one more thing I have to do." Brave Heart said with a devilish smirk.

"What's that?" Spike ask puzzled. Brave Heart grins as he turns his flank towards the mirror and shakes it.

"This....Feast yer eyes!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha. That's a good one."

"You're not disgusted by that move?" Brave Heart ask Spike in surprise.

"Not as much as I used to be, Brave. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha." Spike laughs like mad. Lorcan Hyde, on the other claw, looks horrified to see what Brave Heart is doing, showing his flank right to him!

"Oh, I'm blind. I'm scarred for life. I did not want to see that!" Lorcan Hyde screams in terror. He disappears, leaving Spike's normal reflection.

"He's gone! Lorcan Hyde has disappeared. Thank you, Brave Heart."

"Aye, no problem. That discorded nightmare in yer head won't be coming back...later." Brave Heart said to Spike with a devilish grin. "And if he gave ye anymore trouble, call for me and I will come running."

"Right, no problem!" Spike exclaims with a smile. Of course, after what happened, Lorcan Hyde would be wise to never come back anytime soon!

----------------

Soarin' and Owen has gotten the sleigh with the reins on it done. The colt are in the living room with Twilight, Nyx and Winona. The purple unicorn sighs happily, "Why, tomorrow night, Soarin' will proclaim his love like he has never done before. Doesn't that sound romantic or what?"

"Yeah, it would be awesome!" Nyx exclaims as Winona barks in agreement.

"Oh yes, it will be a night to remember all right...a night of all nights, the most perfect, romantic of all nights ever." Soarin' said happily. Of course, the group are unaware that Rainbow is in the room, hiding and looking ticked off at the new 'love ponies'.

"Best of all, Winona, if you help us with this, you will be a part of history." Twilight said to Winona with a smile.

"After tonight, you will no longer be treated like a puppy but a real life dog." Soarin' said as Winona nods and barks happily.

"Thanks, Winona! You don't know how happy this makes us."

"As well as certain ponies." Nyx chirps as the group leaves the room, still unaware of Rainbow's presence, the filly growls angrily as they leave.

"Ugh! So, the egghead thinks she has won, huh?" Rainbow scowls as she begins pacing him. "Not only did this flirt steals my love as well as my cousin and my friends, but the mare did so on the most important of all nights, one that should be mine! Well, if I cannot have that joy, no pony shall!"

When Rainbow Dash heads off to ruin things, a figure is seen saying. "If she does this, it will come back to huant her later on." She then heads off so not to be seen.

----------------

In the storage, Owen decides to sleep in the sleigh overnight, snoring loudly. Unknown to him, Rainbow came in and begins using a hacksaw to cut at the rope slowly and carefully. She mumbles, "Carefully now, can't cut all the way through...perfect!"

Rainbow chuckles evilly, revenge will soon be hers!

--------------------

Rainbow has put on a coat, preparing to head to the doors. The mare decides to leave the castle for good. After all, what's the point in staying here when the spell is broken (if that will be the case now) if she won't have Soarin' to share her restored life with?

"Well, I'm done all what I can do. Nothing left for me here now." Rainbow said as she opens the doors, preparing to leave the castle for good.

"Rainbow? Where are you going?" Twilight ask puzzled as she, Nyx and Spike heads up to her.

"Right, it's cold out there and you shouldn't go yet." Spike said in concern. The truth is, the time for the anniversary is almost upon Rainbow and she can't leave without sharing it with Soarin'.

"Hey, who said I am going anywhere..." Rainbow said then growls the last part quietly. "...vixen and traitors."

"Huh? What did you say?" Twilight ask puzzled, not catching the last part.

"Oh nothing..." Rainbow then mumbles the last part while leaving. "Backstabbers...I..."

"My love, there you are!" Soarin' exclaims as he leans against the door with a smile, much to the filly's surprise and confusion. The colt is smiling at her for some reason.

"Oh, Soarin'! What..."

"Are you ready?"

"For what?" Rainbow ask dumbstruck and confused, wondering what Soarin' is about. Isn't he planning something big with Twilight tonight?

"Why, for the wonderful evening that I got planned for the two of us." Soarin' said to Rainbow lovingly. The filly looks concerned as she looks back to Twilight then to the colt, wondering whom she means.

"Which two out of curiously?"

"Why, you and me of course!"

"Oh, really?" Rainbow ask Soarin' with a surprise chuckle, looking a bit sheepishly.

"It's our anniversary, duh! Come on, don't you remember?" Soarin' ask Rainbow with a laugh, much to the filly's surprise.

"Oh it is? Err, wow. I must've...forgotten, yeah."

"Don't know how ye could since ye were eager for it earlier." Brave Heart teases his cousin as he came onto the scene. "We all were working on this surprise fer a while now. Now I know how ye flew by, crying and thinking that Soarin' has ditched ye but there's no reason to be heartbroken. It's just a surprise fer the both of yew two love ponies, heh heh."

Rainbow looks speechless, all this time Soarin' was preparing his anniversary for himself and her...and she thinks that her love has betrayed her. The colt offers his upper foreleg while asking, "Now then, shall we begin?"

"Awww, Soarin'." Rainbow giggles as she links her own upper foreleg with Soarin', the two heads outside for their anniversary.

"Phew, glad that's over with." Twilight said with a smile. "At least now the whole misunderstanding has been cleared up. I just know Rainbow and Soarin' are going to enjoy themselves."

"Aye...but why do I got a bad feeling otherwise?" Brave Heart ask in concern. The alicorn has a good reason to be a worried: he doesn't know of Rainbow's sabotage due to the misunderstanding.

Chapter 7: Anniversary of Disaster

Rainbow smiles as her anniversary with Soarin' began with him conducting Preppo, an Earth pony named Trent and a bunch of baby Muppets known as Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem in playing music. Soarin' grins to his filly hwo smiles while listening to this. Once the music is done, Rainbow sighs romantically. She can't believe her colt-friend has put all this together with Twilight's help.

------------

The thing continues onward with the two Pegasus poniy's having their upper forelegs watch together while watching the fountain. Twilight, Applejack, Nyx, Spike and Brave Heart watch from the stairs with smiles.

"They are having funny, huh mommy?" Nyx ask Twilight happily.

"Eeyep, 'dis will definitely be one night 'ta remember." Applejack remarks in agreement.

"Oh, it sure will." Twilight said with a smile.

"Aye, although I can help but have this bad feeling." Brave Heart said in concern, feeling like something bad will go wrong soon. And unfortunately, the colt's feeling is indeed right!

----------

Soarin' and Rainbow apparently appear to be having fun as they rode in the sleigh that Owen and Soarin' has built on. Winona is pulling the thing while the Earth pony himself sat in front, holding the reins to signa;l which way that the puppy should go.

Soarin' grins, knowing that the anniversary is turning out well. Rainbow, on the other hand, is nervous. The rope on this thing has been sabotaged thanks to her, something is going break soon...literally!

Soarin' grins as he put one upper foreleg around Rainbow, saying, "Check out you, my nervous little Pegasus pony. Fluttery as a Flutterpony."

"Yeah, you always do that to me." Rainbow said with a nervous chuckle. The two then felt a bump that the sleigh hit, startling the filly. She fears the worst now.

"The snow is on the ground, the winter chill is in my air and yet you my sweet feel so warm."

"Yes, you set my heart to flame."

Rainbow looks up to the front and looks concerned, the rope that she messed with is abotu to break. Soarin', noticing her look, calms her down, cuddling with the filly and holding her while saying, "My love, relax. Everything will be all right."

"Soarin', I believe it will." Rainbow said with a sigh of relief. So far the rope hasn't broken yet, right? Soarin' chuckles lovingly with Owen smiling at what's going on in the back but kept his focus on the pathway. The filly cuddle her love while giggling, "Soarin', I was a fool."

"True, but you are a fool for love and there is no better kind." Soarin' said with a lovingly smile. Owen pulls the reins to signal Winona to turn around hard, but the rope is about to break, unknown to him. Soarin' chose this time to do his speech. "And now my darling, I got something that I want to tell you."

"Yeah Soarin'?"

"Err..on this most perfectly evening...this wonderful night with you and me and the moon and the sleigh..."

Winona turns around hard. But that's when disaster strike. The rope broke in half, causing the puppy to run the other way while the sleigh slide faster. Owen yelps in alarm, this isn't good!

"'And the moon, I did say that, right? And..." Soarin' stops as he looks alarmed upon seeing that a certain puppy is gone. "Winona? Where is she?" The puppy stop running upon realizing that the sleigh with its riders are now gone!

Rainbow looks freaked out as she saw Soarin' looking for the puppy. The filly calls out, "Owen, are you are still driving?"

"To be honest, Rainbow Dash, I was hoping that you got the answers." Owen said in alarm as he held up the broken rope making Rainbow gasps in terror. She was afraid of this! Because of her jealously, this ride is turning into a disaster!

"You got to stop us at once!" Soarin' exclaims to Owen in alarm.

"Come on! My job is to help the master take his bath and to eat a lot, not stopping sleigh and this. I'm new to this!"

The sleigh kept on sliding faster while going out of control while Winona chase after it in hopes to save Soarin', Rainbow and Owen. The filly, feeling scared as this was her fault, ask her love, "My brave one, any ideas on what to do?"

"Well, only one thing to do...scream like cowards." Soarin' said to Rainbow seriously. And so the two nods as they and Owen begins screaming like cowards in hope for help coming.

---------------

Back inside the library, Twilight was putting a book back into the shelf when she heard the screams coming from outside. The mare looks worried as she said, "Hey, listen, that sounds like Soarin' calling for help."

"What, Soarin' mess up his date already?" Spike ask while shaking his head. "Figures he would mess this up."

"Eeyup, believe it is. Didn't think 'dat Soarin' out there needed help." Applejack said in concern as she listens in. Funny, Soarin' isn't the only one crying for help, but so is Rainbow and Owen.

"Wait, I think he's in trouble." Twilight said as she, Nyx and Brave Heart look out the window, looking shocked as they saw the sleigh going out of trouble. "They're int rouble!"

"Come on, outside!" Brave Heart exclaims in alarm as the group rush outside. They gotta save Soarin', his cousin Rainbow and Owen before they get hurt or worst!

---------------

The ponies in the sleigh looks alarmed as they find themselves heading to the ledge outside the castle. Soarin' exclaims in alarm, "Gah, no! Not that way, anyway but that!" The colt quickly works with Owen as the two made the sleigh turn and slid on the ledge to avoid crashing.

"Hoo boy, this isn't going to end well big time." Owen groans as he leans to the other side to turn the sleigh. This anniversary thing is going to end badly for the two lovers.

"Lean to the left, lean to the left!"

Soarin' and Rainbow work on leaning to the left. Twilight, Nyx, Spike, Applejack and Brave Heart rush outside as they saw the trio in the sleigh to the end of the line. The cowpony exclaims, "Hoo doggy! 'Dat doesn't look safe at all!"

"You think?!" Nyx screams in sarcasm as the fillies, Brave Heart rush down the steps in hopes to save them in time especially since the sleigh is near the ledge, the riders and driver are abotu to fall.

"So what shall we do now?" Rainbow ask Soarin' in worry. They and Owen are going to crash into the ledge, all because of her jealously and misunderstanding.

"Simple. I believe we shall perish." Soarin' said while hugging Rainbow. The two screams as they and Owen slid off the ledge. Luckily for them the tree trunk caught the sleigh in the nick of time.

Twilight's group rush over to the sleigh with the purple unicorn screaming, "Soarin', hang on!"

"Is it just me or do I got a feeling that Boris the Animal will end up down here someday without his horn?" Spike ask the others making Nyx shrugs in concern.

"Oh, I hope so. That will end that brute's big mouth fer sure!" Brave Heart remarks in amusement to think of the thought of 'Boris the Animal' falling to his doom in that ledge.

"Well, considering the option, I got no intention of doing otherwise!" Soarin' exclaims as he and Rainbow look frightfully down. They may be Pegasus ponies but the two are too scared to fly out right now. To make matters worst, the part of the sleigh begins breaking from the steel bar.

"Soarin', save us!" Rainbow exclaims to Soarin' frantically.

"Hey, I would if I could, okay." Just then the sleigh shake, causing Rainbow lose her balance and fall out of the sleigh. Luckily, Soarin' grabs her by the hoof in time. "My love, do not let go!"

Twilight need to think of something then saw Caramel, Goofy and some of the ponies rushing over, they obviouisly saw what happened. The mare calls out, "I have an idea."

"Well, I hope it involves rescuing because my friends are about to crash to their doom soon!" Nyx calls out in worry. Sure enough, the trunk at the cliff is breaking due to how heavy the sleigh is.

Soarin' kept holding Rainbow's hoof while Owen held onto the sleigh. The cyan filly sobs, "Oh man, this is my fault! Why didn't I trusted you, Soarin'?! Oh, if we don't survive, the least I can tell you is that...I love you from the very bottom of my heart."

"Yes, and I..." Soarin' said, wondering what he himself would say if the two lovers were to fall...literally.

"You what? I'm listening, I am not going anywhere!"

"Lads, lass, get a tight hold and don't let go!" Brave Heart calls out quickly. The gang are making a rope with one another with Twilight on the top and Applejack right at the bottom.

"One moment if you will..." Soarin' said as he takes out the paper with his speech...but without warning, the wind blew the paper away from him. "Oh man! My words has escaped me!"

"Tell me, Soarin', tell me!" Rainbow exclaims. She wants to much to hear what Soarin' wants to say.

"Soarin', forget the speech, lad." Brave Heart calls out to Soarin' in concern. "Just tell her how ye feel from yer heart!"

"Err, you are my one and only...you are my scent of a beautiful angel..." Soarin' groans a bit. Brave Heart is right, speeches are not important anymore. Time to speak from his heart like the alicorn and Twilight has suggested him to do. "Oh, Rainbow Dash...I will put it blandly and simply. I love you."

"You do?" Rainbow ask as tears of joy came from her eyes. Those must be the most romantic and greatest words that the filly has ever heard in her life.

"Yeah, sure do."

Sure the trunk broke as the group scream. They are preparing to fall to her death when Applejack grabs Owen's tail. The Earth pony, despite feeling some pain, grabs Soarin' by the wing when the colt holding his love's hoof.

Twilight and the others pulls up Owen, Soarin' and Rainbow right onto the safely of the ledge. Everyone cheers a bit as Nyx exclaims,"Wow, that was a close one!"

Soarin', feeling sadly and regretted, spoke up, "Sorry, Rainbow Dash. This anniversary was far from perfect."

"What, you kidding? I will never forget this evening no matter what!" Rainbow laughs as she kiss Soarin' on the cheek, making him blush. Despite the sleigh disaster, the anniversary turned out well after all.

"Yew think things will turn out y'all right now?" Applejack ask Twilight and Brave Heart who watch the lovers enjoying themselves. "Rainbow seems happy..."

"Well, I do think me cousin learned her lesson about misunderstanding and being jealous." Brave Heart said with a light chuckle. "I think she turned out fine."

"Right, sometimes, things are not always as they seemed." Twilight said with a smile. Rainbow is happy with her lover, that's all the purple unicorn needed to see and know.

Author's note

All right, time for the next chapter. ABI, Unknown, to be honest, I don't see any reason for the minor subplot as it doesn't make any sense. Maybe I will have Boris just be Manny and Trixie be Gypsy but that's about it.

Applejack's Party

Chapter 8: A Cheering Up Surprise

It was dark and stormy outside the castle and it was nasty. No ray of sun came out through due to the dark clouds blocking. The gang are inside, watching the clouds in hopes that the weather will clear up.

All but Applejack who appears to be acting strange. Caramel, shivering a bit, said, "The weather has been dreadful."

"Tell me about it, I am sooooo bored." Nyx said with a groan especially since the fillies (even the grown-up ones) can't risk going out today.

"Eeyup, never in y'all mah years did 'de sun became reluctant 'ta show itself." Applejack sighs in sadness while looking out the window. "No single rain in weeks, nnope."

"Applejack, are you okay?" Twilight ask Applejack in concern. The purple unicorn couldn't help but notices her friend's sad mood lately.

"Right, you appear a bit...well...saddened." Spike said in concern.

"Shucks, yeah, forgive me y'all...done afraid 'ese gray scars got me feeling a bit blut...as in a melancholy kinda way." Applejack said with a sad tone of voice.

"Melancholy: A pitiful and dejected mood." jacobyel adds in, making some of the servants roll their eyes at this. Once again, that colt has to do that.

"Thanks, jacobyel. 'Ta be honest, mah ma was effective by 'de weather. So is ma pa..."

"Well, Applejack, sounds like ye is a bit down." Brave Heart said in concern. "Perhaps ye shall have yerself a little rest, lass."

"Right, it could help you feel better." Twilight said to Applejack in agreement.

"Shucks, ponies, don't let mah silly ol' mood worry yew y'all some on. Ah will get over it." Applejack assures Twilight and Brave Heart, not wanting them both to feel worried for her. "Like they y'all say, 'de grayer 'de day, 'de more mah tea suits 'de soul. Wanna some?"

"Well, that sounds wonderful."

Applejack pours the tea right into four cups. Apple Bloom pass each one to Twilight, Nyx, Spike and Brave Heart who begins to drink from them...but stops in concern. The baby dragon frowns while saying, "Geez."

"What? Is it cold? Ah can take it, what?" Applejack ask Spike in concern and worry.

"Well...I don't want to alarm you or anything but...you've forgot to add tea. It's just warm water." Twilight said in concern as she gave the cup back to Applejack as did the others with theirs. Hearing that has gotten the cowpony filly worried.

"Great horny toads! Ah forgot 'ta add tea?! Hoo doggy, Ah is never been so embarrassed."

Applejack trots off in embarrassment as Twilight and Brave Heart follow her, with Brave Heart himself calling out, "It's all right, lass. It's just be a mistake."

"Right, don't be so hard on yourself, every pony makes them." Twilight said, assuring Applejack that what happened is something to feel so embarrassed about.

"Ah is losing mah mind! Ah sure am!" Applejack exclaims in a panic.

"Well, that isn't the first time you did." Spike jokes a bit, making Applejack scream a bit. Some of the others glare at him for the bad joke. "Sorry! I was trying to lighten up the mood!"

"Maybe you should get some rest." Twilight suggest to Applejack in concern.

"Awww, shoot, I is no good 'ta anypony in 'dis here state." Applejack said in sadness. With the filly's mood in a downpour, she is one wreck.

"Look, how about you try our rest? It's nice and quiet. You will feel better in no time." Nyx suggests to Applejack with a hopeful smile.

"Nyx's right. Who knows, you might wake up a new filly." Twilight said to Applejack, agreeing with Nyx's suggestion.

"Shucks, thank yew, Twilight an' Nyx." Applejack said with a sigh. Maybe some rest would do her some good. The filly heads off to Twilight's room, leaving her friends in concern.

They got to help cheer up Applejack somehow.

---------

The Demon Pony was sleeping in the broken bed in his room when Soarin', Caramel and Nyx came in to check in on him. The alicorn filly giggles while saying, "Sssh, daddy's sleeping."

"Yes, I know. All the precipation has made some terrible leafs in the roof." Caramel said with a sigh. "He was up all night fixing the castle roofs, didn't catch a wink of sleep."

"Right, I think daddy needs some sleep so he can wake up nice and bright later on. Whenever mommy sleeps, I let her do so or she gets cranky."

"Nyx is right, we better let him sleep then." Soarin' said in concern. If Twilight gets cranky whenever she doesn't get enough sleep, the colt know that it would be suicide to wake the Demon Pony up now.

"Right, I am not going to wake him up. I would rather wake a bear up from hibernation." Caramel said in concern as he closes the door to let the Demon Pony resume his sleep. The last thing the servant wants is a cranky monster of a master!

--------------

The day continues as it became rainy. Inside a certain room, Caramel is talking to Goofy who is writing a letter to a certain someone who could predict the weather. Hopefully this person can know when it will stop so that Applejack can cheer up at last.

As Goofy listen, Caramel say, "And inform us at once when this awful weather has come to a stop."

Once Goofy is done writing, he gave the letter to Finn who hands it to Pidove. Finn himself say, "Pidove, send this out at once." The Pokemon nods and took the paper.

Caramel opens the window, causing strong rainy wind to blow right into the room and splattering right onto Soarin' and jacobyel, making the two frown at the colt. He chuckles sheepishly. "Oh, sorry about that."

Pidove flew out of the castle and heads into the rainy weather in a mission to deliver Caramel's letter.

-------------

In the dining room, Twilight and everyone else (minus the sleeping Demon Pony and Applejack) are talking about the saddened cowpony, discussing what to do about her.

"I am worried. Applejack is normally the most cheerful soul in this castle." Twilight said to Kairi in concern for the filly's sad mood.

"Yeah, this morning, Applejack sat by the table looking so...gloomy." Kairi said with a sad sigh. "Not sure what to say."

"Aye, Kairi. We should do something to help the poor lass." Brave Heart said with a nod. "I hate to see her like this."

"I already send a letter to to a friend who claims to predict the weather." Caramel explains to the others. "Hopefully his response can help get Applejack back to normal soon enough."

"Man, with all this messy weather, it would take forever for a Pidove to get back for an answer." Spike said with a frown. "I mean, we can't wait a long time for Applejack to cheer up or something."

"Spike's right. That was considerate of you, Caramel, but we shouldn't wait for the weather to cheer up Applejack." Twilight said thoughtfully. "We should find a way to do that ourselves."

"Right, good idea!" Brave Heart exclaims with a smile.

"Yes, I agreed!" Finn said with a smile.

"Right, couldn't said it better myself." jacobyel remarks with a grin of his own.

"Why, I can't count the number of times that Applejack has been there when I needed her." Twilight adds with a smile on her face. "She listened to me and cheer me up whenever I am sad. Why, Applejack is just like a sister to me."

"Yeah, me too!" Apple Bloom squeals while Twilight laughs at this.

"Well, wha are we doing just standing here? We oughta help Applejack cheer up." Scootaloo said with a grin.

"Right, everypony knows that she's the heart of this castle." Soarin' said in agreement.

"Yes, I most hearily agree with Twilight! We should act...and take the depression by the horns, wrestle it to the ground and beat it senselessly and without mercy!" Caramel exclaims madly. Of course, hearing that has made his friends a bit uneasy.

"Err, yeah...but I think it's best if we do something less...violent." Nyx said to Caramel with a cringe.

"Right, anyway I have something a little more fun in mind." Twilight said in agreement. "Perhaps a party will help."

"A party?" Sweetie Belle ask with a smile on her face. A party sounds loads of fun.

"Ha ha ha, yes, a party! To show the lass how much we enjoy her!" Brave Heart exclaims with a pleased look on his face. A party oughta be fun!

-----------------

Twilight and some of the others with her goes into the kitchen. The cook, Hoity Toity, is already there working with Carrot Cake and Cup Cake, the married colt and filly, and a kid hedgehog named Silver.

"Guess what? We're doing 'ta throw a party few Applejack!" Apple Bloom exclaims to the staff eagerly.

"Yeah! We're going to have decorations, games and all that awesome stuff!" Scootaloo exclaims in agreement.

"A small affair just to know how much we care for her." Soarin' adds with a nod.

"Right, we must have a location. Something like this needs one." Caramel request to the staff.

"Aye. Hoity, can ye whip up a little something or another?" Brave Heart ask Hoity Toity with a grin.

"'A little something'?" Hoity ask with a scoff as if being insulted. "Brave Heart, I am a master chef. I don't do 'little'. That would be insulting."

"No, no, of course we know you don't." Rainbow said, understanding that Hoity doesn't good 'little' stuff. "What Brave Heart mean is that we thought a master like you could make a little masterpiece...a cake that is in simplicity and delectable."

"Ah, well, in that case I will be delighted."

"Cool! So what cake shall we make for Applejack?" Nyx ask happily and eagerly.

"Well, if I remember right, angel food is here favorite." Caramel said with a thoughtful look.

"Caramel, I know your heart is in the right place, but devil's food is always Applejack's favorite cake." Soarin' said to Caramel with a light chuckle.

"Hoo boy, here we go again." Spike mumbles a bit. One again, Soarin' and Caramel are in one of their debates that could get way out of hoof here.

"Yeah, I agreed with Soarin'. Applejack is one saucy soul." Mrs. Cake said to her husband with a smile. "She likes devil's food for sure!"

"With all due respect, Cup honey, I gotta side with Caramel on this. The cake should be angel's food." Mr. Cake remarks to his filly wife causing Caramel to smirk to the frowning Soarin'.

"Ugh, you are always like this, always think you are right."

"Well, of course I am right! I am the right hoof, right?"

"Don't you be giving me your workings, Carrot Cake!" Mrs. Cake scolds her husband with a frown.

"Enough, silence! I will not have this madness in my staff!" Hoity scowls at the Cakes, causing them to cut their argument short.

"Aye, we mustn't forget that this is to make a friend cheer up after all." Brave Heart remarks everyone else in concern. "We can't let this ruin us now."

"We will decide on a cake later. After all, working together to plan this party is half the fun." Twilight explains to her friends with a smile.

"Sure...until Mr. Know It All starts opening his mouth," Mrs. Cake mumbles while frowning to Mr. Cake.

"Oh, don't start with me, Cup Cake!" Mr. Cake scowls to his wife in annoyance.

"All right, I can whip up the necessarily ingredients!" Silver exclaims eagerly, but yelps upon seeing an annoyed look from Hoity. "Err...under your directions of course."

"So far, so good. What else can we get?" Nyx ask as the group leave the kitchen to leave the staff to their task of baking a cake.

"Perhaps I should suggest music to company the cake's presentation." Caramel suggests with a smile.

"Yeah, good idea. We will choose a melody that can help enhances the mood." Soarin' said in agreement.

"Right, we will leave it to you two to select the music." Twilight said with a nod. She hopes that the two colts can get along and help in the preparations.

"Aye, and I will help with the decorations. Also, we got to have flowers as well." Brave Heart said thoughtfully.

"Right, we mustn't forget those! Always a way to a filly's heart." Soarin' said eagerly while nodding.

"We can only hope that the master doesn't get waken by the activity." Caramel said in concern. He fears that one certain noise is enough to wake up the Demon Pony and get more extra grouchy.

"Relax, with the way daddy's sleeping, I doubt our work will wake him up." Nyx chirps with a giggle.

"Nyx's right. Even a Grand Galloping Gala won't wake him up." Twilight agrees with a chuckle. "Why, the Demon Pony can sleep all day and who could blame him?"

"Got that right. If I did all that work on the roof, I would be out like a light too." Soarin' chuckles as he and Caramel heads off to find some business, leaving Twilight, Nyx, Spike and Brave Heart with the CMC.

"All right, fillies, not a word to this to Applejack, okay?" Nyx whispers to her friends quietly while giggling a bit.

"Aye, we don't want her to ruin things, would we?" Brave Heart points out in agreement as to not let Applejack know about the surprise party.

"No worries, our lips are sealed." Apple Bloom insists as she, Sweetie and Scootaloo clamps their mouths shut to prove that they won't say a word of the party to Applejack.

-----------------------------------------------

Twilight opens the door to her room to check on Applejack. Good, the filly is still sleeping. The mare then spots something on her dresser: a note. Twilight uses her magic to get it then closes the door.

Twilight begins to read the note, it's from Golden Heart, the one who helped saved Hearth's Warming Eve from Discord. It said, 'Dear Twilight Sparkle: I need help. My little sister came here a while ago, but that is all you need to know for now, and did not return. I am worry for her or she is for me. I am coming back as soon as I can. Please give this to my little sister so that she knows that I did not mean to leave her after all that had happen with Discord and all. So hope you find her and one more thing, she is not a filly like the ponies here.

'P.S give her this picture so that she knows that you and those with you are friends to me.'

Twillight saw that the picture is Golden heart with a Pink pony that looks like Pinkie Pie. After she's done reading the note, the mare decides to look around untill she saw little bits of red on the floor. (it is blood but you know what I mean) Twilight follows it, knowing that someone is hurt.

Twilight then saw a figure that spotted her and ran. The unicorn kept following the figure untill it goes into a room. When she got to it. Twilight heard a voice that sounds like Pinkie Pie and it says. "Do not come any closer or you'll be really sorry or my big brother will deal with you."

Twilight thought a bit then ask, "Would your big brother name be Golden Heart?"

Twilight then saw the door open a bit, revealing two creepy eyes as the figure asks, "You know of Goldie? You have proof?"

"I do."

With that Twilight then shows the note with the picture of the alicorn as the figure took it quickly and looked at the note. The figure then says with a calmer voice, "Ok come in. I like to talk to you alone so no one is watching."

---------------------------

Soarin' is conducting Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem the music for the party. As this goes on, the colt stops, saying, "Floyd Pepper, that's a sharp in measure four. And Trent? Come on, try up and octave."

"Right, no problem." Trent said as he salutes Soarin'.

"Man, how about a break?" Floyd Pepper ask Soarin' with a frown. "The lively French melodies are very hard to do here, you know?"

"You want a break? You will get one when you do the music right!" Soarin' snaps to the band sternly. The colt was preparing to continue the practice but was interrupted when the door was slammed opened, revealing Caramel and Scootaloo who trots right into the room.

"Ugh, Soarin', what was that infernal racket?" Caramel scowls to Soarin' while covering his ears with his hooves.

"Well, I am surprised. You don't seem to recognize the work of hte music anyway."

"Really? I thought the circus came into town or something." Scootaloo said in confusion, making Caramel chuckles at what the filly just said.

"Nice comeback there, Scootaloo. That dreadful piece seems inappropriate for a party like this." Caramel remarks in amusement.

"Well, I suppose you got something better then?" Soarin' ask Caramel as if challenging the colt to perform better music than he did.

"Why yes for a matter of fact, I shall compose the original symphony which is a opus of sorts. How's that?"

"I say your cutie mark is on the wrong side of your flank!"

"Anyway, the colts agreed to perform my piece after all." Caramel remarks, causing the band to nod in agreement.

"Like Caramel did approach us first, Soarin'." Janice said to Soarin' with a shrug.

"Of course, we didn't promise to him exclusively." Preppo points out to Soarin' and Caramel. "We could play for the both of you if that helps."

"Look, there isn't much time! We will play my piece and that's that!" Soarin' scowls angrily as he turns his back on Caramel. Apparently, the colt refuses to let the band play for anyone but him.

"All right, we will both prepare then!" Caramel scowls at Soarin' stubbornly.

"Then we will let Twilight decide on who will conduct!"

Scootaloo looks worried. The two colts are arguing instead of working together. This won't end well. The Pegasus filly leaves in hope to Twilight and her friends to put a stop to this.

-------------------

Things in the kitchen aren't doing well either. While Silver kept blending the ingredients, the Cakes kept on arguing on what flavor to use. Mr. Cake snaps as he pours angel's food flour into the bowl, "Angel's food and that's it!"

"No, no, it will be devil's food!" Mrs. Cake snaps as she tackles her husband, causing him to groan and push his wife aside to keep her from pouring the ingredients for the devil's food.

"Hey, hey, come on, cooperation is needed!" Silver protest to the Cakes as he kept on blending. But the couple ignores him as they kept on with their arguing. "We got our jobs to do here, you two! Come on, I beg of you! If Hoity Toity hear..."

"And what's wrong on here?" Hoity demands in annoyance, causing Silver to yelp and make, the cream fell right onto the Cakes's faces.

"Err, nothing, sir! Just working on the blending, heh heh."

"Well, enough with the insistent bickering and return to work at once!"

As Hoity Toity heads off, Mr. Cake frowns as he whispers to Mrs. Cake, "Angel's food!"

"Devil's food!" Mrs. Cake whispers right back in annoyance. This isn't going very well at all.

Author's note
Hoo boy, the preparations for the party isn't doing well at all as Soarin' and Caramel are arguing along with the Cakes. And who is this mysterious figure that Twilight just met? In the next chapter, we learn Pinkamena Diane Pie's story. Also, the preparations get worst especially when the gang hides the flowers by putting them into the Demon Pony's room. Can anyone work together? Hardly. Read, review and suggest.

Chapter 9: Arguments Amongst Friends

Twilight looks amazed as she finds herself speaking with looks like Pinkie Pie...except her tail and mane are deflated, the mare got a creepy smile and she is grown up.

"But I like to know why are you here and why are you hurt?" Twilight ask Pinkamena Diane pie in concern.

"Well I will tell you through a story since you love stories." Pinkamena said with a nod.

"I really like stories."

"Ok. You see, I was with Golden Hheart and he asked me to get in a hiding place to be ready to strike at Discord if he did any tricks." Pinkamena then looks at the author and says. You know what to do, cue the flash backplease to show her why I am here and how I got hurt."

Flashback

Pinkamena watch as Golden Heart said, "Pinkamena, I'm going to visit Twilight in the dungeon now...go into hiding and prepare yourself in case Discord tries anything. I got a feeling that he has a claw in what happened."

"Okay, Goldie!" Pinkamena said as she rushes off. The mare hid in a room while saying, "No problem, I can hide here...that shouldn't be too hard, right?"

Pinkamena waited for a few minutes or so, the pink pony prepares to doze off...when the whole place begins to shake, evil laughter is heard making Pinkamena yelp in alarm and fright.

"Yikes! What's going on?!" Pinkamena ask in horror. "Goldie!"

The pink pony heard a noise and saw some rocks falling on her. Pinkamena can only scream as she got hit by them, falling unconscious later. It took a few days for Pinkamena to wake up and recover, as well as escape her trap...

But by then, Pinkamena was injured and Golden Heart was gone.

End Flashback

After the story Pinkamena tells to Twilight, she then says, "And I have been hiding ever since watching and movein so i can't be seen."

"Why not come with me?" Twilight suggests to Pinkamena with a smile. "We are planning a party for Applejack."

"I can't, what if your friends won't like me and be afraid of me?"

"It is ok. I can let my firends know of you and tell them the story you told me and they know of Golden Heart so they will understand. But maybe not all will accept it and you as a friend but I know some of them will. And maybe the ones that do not like you will accept you as a friend.

"You think so?" Pinkamena ask Twilight hopefully.

"I know so." Twilight assures Pinkamena with a grin. "Let's go, my friends might be worry of me. You can hide as you follow me so when I tell my firends about you, I'll call you and you can come out ok?"

"Ok." With that Twilight heads off with Pinkamena following her and says in her mind, "What I herd of her is true, she is so kind, she is the one to break the spell. That is what I keep hearing in this castle along with my big brother as well."

---------------

If you folks think things are getting better for the party...well, sadly, they aren't! The whole arguing and trouble is continuing. Caramel and Soarin' heads to the green house to collect the flowers for Applejack...one problem, they each decided what he each wants to take.

The duo goes to the garden where there are lilies are one side with roses on the others. Soarin' comments, "Well, so much to choose from..."

"Right, Lillies. Now there's a flower that makes a statement." Caramel said with a grin at lillies. Of course, Soarin' thinks otherwise.

"Yeah, 'welcome to my funeral', that's what the statement is! Now for the roses...those are a different story."

"Ugh, fine, do what you want but I'm taking the lillies!"

Caramel grabs the lillies, taking them into the castle. He believes that Applejack would love these until the obvious roses.

--------------------

Now here's where things got complicated. Applejack just woke up from her rest and is trotting through the hallway, though still saddened about the weather. The filly was on her way to check up on her friends, seeing how they're doing.

Caramel of course leads the greenhouse with a few hillies, humming his music for the masterpiece. Without warning, both he and Applejack collide with one another, causing the colt to fall to the ground. The filly, recovering, looks down to see her froiend groaning and holding the lillies still.

Caramel, seeing Applejack, yelps and looks nervosus, "Oh, Applejack! Hi! Are you up and around?"

"Eeyep, one can have so much rest 'to have in another day." Applejack said with a nod. The filly glances at the lillies that Caramel is holding in curosity. "Lovely fillies y'all got there. Who are they fer?"

"Oh, these? Err...they are for...the master, yeah!"

"'De master? Yer're kidding, right?"

"Come on, flowers aree quite important to his eminence." Caramel said quickly. He hates to lie to Applejack but it's the only way to keep the party a secret from her. "Why else does he keep a rose, right? The master requested lillies be brought to his room at once...demanded it, most likely!"

"Strange, now Ah know he keeps 'dat rose in 'de West Wing an' y'all, but in all mah years, Ah haven't seen him take a slightest interest in them." Applejack said puzzled. The Demon Pony never like flowers (besides the enchanted rose) before. Why now?

"I guess the master must've turned over a new loaf."

Caramel and Applejack heads over to the Demon Pony's room. The master is still in his bed sleeping so both of them has to sleep in quietly to avoid waking him up with some vases with lillies in them.

"Well, what do you know? He's out like a light again. Well, may as well do it later, can't wake him now." Caramel said quietly and worried.

"Aww horse feathers! Don't be a silly pony. 'De master is out like a log, we will just pace it out quietly." Applejack whispers to her friends as they trot in quietly. They begin putting the vases near the Demon Pony, doing their best not to wake him up. "Ah, these would look nicely."

Caramel thinks otherwise. The colt in worry quickly ran off to find Twilight. This is a big problem.

------------

Scootaloo informs her friends as well as Twilight, Spike and Brave Heart about the cake problem. The purple mare manages to introduce Pinkamena to them. Although they are surprised to see a creepy doppleganger of Pinkie Pie, the ones with Twilight accept her. Now for the others.

"Well, got to say, the lass is nice for someone with a creepy personality." Brave Heart remarks as the group goes to the kitchen to check on the cake. Pinkamena, still hiding, smiles at what the alicorn told her. "And she didn't make fun of me accent. Good."

Upon arriving in the cake, Hoity Toity is getting frustated due to the argument that the Cakes are having over the cake flavor. Twilight ask the cook, "Hoity, what is it? Is something wrong?"

"Ugh, those two are driving me nuts!" Hoity Toity groans as he motions to the arguing Cakes as he tries to separate the couple to keep their fighting form getting worst. "Somepony deal with them, please!"

"Angel's food!" Mr. Cake snaps to his wife in annoyance.

"Devil's food!" Mrs. Cake whispers right back to her husband.

"Are you two still bickering? Come on you two, knock it off!" Nyx ask the Cakes in concern as the two look at each other. "You two are married, you shouldn't act like this."

"Right, look, here's an idea. Why not have a two layer cake?" Twilight suggests to the Cakes hopefully. "One can be angel's food, the other can be devil's food."

"Aye. Even if angels and devils are on the opposite side of a war, ye can't have one without the other, right?" Brave Heart points out to the couple.

Mr. Cake looks thoughtfully then smiles as he said, "Well, it has..."

"Some possibilities." Mrs. Cake said with a nod in agreement.

"Well, at least that's settled." Spike remarks with a nod.

"Right, all of you try to work together. This is supposed to be fun, we're running out of time. Come on, let's find Soarin' and Caramel to tell those two to do the same thing." Twilight suggests as the group leaves the kitchen. Hoity Toity blinks as he saw what looks like Pinkie Pie following them. What was that?

"'Work together'? Haven't she heard of too many cooks can spoil the broth?" Hoity remarks as he glances at his assistant. "And who is that Pinkie Pie lookalike? She looks like something out of a horror story."

------------

In the dining room, the group came in with Sweetie saying, "Well, that turned out well."

"Yeah...except the Cakes may argue again sometime soon." Pinkamena said, still in hiding. "And Soarin' and Caramel? Not good either."

"Right,w hy won't everypony work together?" Twilight ask in frustration. Some of the others aren't working together and are fighting instead. The party may be ruined before it even started!

"Yew need mah big sister 'ta deal wit' dat." Apple Bloom said in concern, knowing that her big sister is the only one to deal with these kind of conflicts.

"Yeah, you're right, and ironically, Applejack is the only pony that we can't tell about the party." Nyx said with a sigh, knowing that the filly in question can't be told about the party at all. "Talk about irony for you."

"I wouldn't give Apple Bloom any ironing. She's only a filly like you are." Kairi, once again misunderstanding, points out to Nyx.

"'Irony', Kairi, not ironing." Brave Heart points out to Kairi with a light chuckle.

"Oh, right, sorry."

"We can only hope that Soarin' and Caramel would at least get the music or the flowers right." Twilight said in concern. "But knowing those two...hoo boy."

------------------

In the other room, Caramel watch Goofy writing downt the musical notes needed for his masterpiecing, explaining, "Of course for the last repeast, descend if half steps are still playing the E sharp ending with the flourish of the harp."

"Harp? Gawrsh, we don't have one." Goofy points out to Caramel with a puzzled look.

"Right, flourish in the job then." Caramel corrects himself. Goofy nods and finish the work up. Finn takes the paper, putting it on a few stacks of others with the colt's musical. Is that all? "Now for my faith movement!"

Goofy and Finn looks stunned, their jaws dropped. That colt has got to be kidding, right?

--------------------

Twilight's group trot through the hallway to look for Caramel and Soarin', in hopes to get them to work together. They found Soarin' leaving the greenhouse with a few roses.

"Soarin', get those roses to the parlor before Applejack sees you, she's awake noe." Twilight said to Soarin' in concern.

"Right, otherwise..." Scootaloo begins to say.

"Too late, Applejack is coming!" Caramel exclaims in worry as he arrives to his friends. "You all better hide, if the filly sees those, you gotta take them to the master."

"Huh? Now why would we do that?" Spike ask Soarin' puzzled. "I thought he doesn't like flowers other than that rose that he keeps."

"Long story. And who is the pink pony with the creepy smile and weird tail and mane?"

Caramel just saw Pinkamena who is in hiding. Soarin' heads off to look for a place to hide from Applejack. Unfortunately the roses is slipping from his hooves, leaving a trail. The pink pony said, "Hi, I'm Pinkamena Diane Pie, Goldie's sister and Twilight's new friend."

"Right, so I see." Caramel said with a nod. "Forgive me for being rude but change your looks a bit, you look like..."

"Howdy, y'all!" Applejack exclaims as she arrives, interrupting Caramel.

"Oh, Applejack, good day!"

"Aaaand, who is yer new friend who looks like Pinkie except wit' a creepy smile an' deflated mane an' tail?"

"Hi, I am Pinkamena Diane Pie, Golden Heart's sister who was left here by mistake." Pinkamena said with a smile on her face. "I am Twilight's new friend and not a creepy insane killer."

"Oh, well, any friend o' Twilight's is welcome here." Applejack said with a smile, assuring Pinkamena that she is welcomed in the castle. "An' mah friend too."

"Goodie!"

"Well, sorry to tell you but the weather hasn't changed." Twilight explains to Applejack in concern.

"Right, lass. We're waiting fer a prediction fro' a friend o' Caramel's but it may take some time." Brave Heart adds seriously to the filly.

"Shucks, Ah know 'dat. Ah is trying 'ta keep my chin up but..." Applejack stops and looks puzzled upon seeing something on the floor. "Uh, beg yer pardon but is 'dat a rose Ah done see there?"

"Oh, really? How odd." Twilight said with a nervous look on her face.

"An' there's another..." Applejack said as she begins following a trail of roses. The filly kept on following them and found Soarin' on the other end. "Soarin? Whatcha doing wit' those flowers?"

"Oh, uh...uh...what do you think I was doing?" Soarin' ask with a nervous smile.

"Let me guess, those are more flowers fer 'de master?"

Soarin' looks shocked and turns to Caramel who motions him to follow along. The Pegasus colt slowly nods and says, "Yes, of course they are."

-----------

Everyone goes to the Demon Pony's room, beginning to put more flowers around the master's bed. Twilight, Soarin', Nyx, Spike, Brave Heart and the Cutie Mark Crusaders are worried. What would happened if the Demon Pony were to wake up and see these flowers in his room?

"I donna think this is such a good idea." Brave Heart whispers to his friends. "I mean..what if the master sees this? He's going to be very confused."

"As long as daddy doesn't wake up when we remove them later, we should be fine." Nyx whispers, making sure that Applejack doesn't hear her. "If not...well, we will think of something, right?"

Once the flowers are in place, the group leaves the room, heading down the stairs. So far, so good. Applejack remarks, "Ah sure hope 'dat can make him happy."

"Right...sure, same here." Spike said with a nervous chuckle.

"Yes, thanks for your help." Caramel remarks to Applejack with a nod.

"Most welcome there. Glad 'ta do something 'ta help around here. All right, Apple Bloom, time fer yew an' yew Cutie Mark Crusader friends 'ta take yer bath." Applejack said as she motions the CMC to head off for their bath.

"Awwww!" The Cutie Mark Crusaders said with a pouty look. They hate taking baths, especially since Applejack isn't even Rarity or Scootaloo's sister!

As the four leaves, Twilight sighs as she turns to Caramel and Soarin', asking, "You two mind telling me what's going on?"

"He started it!" Soarin' and Caramel snaps as they point to one another, though the Pegasus pony slip and bumps into his friend, knocking him to the floor and causing the Earth pony to yelp in pain from the impact.

"Here we go." Pinkamena giggles to the two arguing once more.

-------------

Pidove is flying through the sky, heading back to the castle. The Pokemon has gotten a respond from Caramel's friend. Hopefully it can help say when the weather will come to a stop.

--------------

Soarin' and Caramel explains what they like to bring for Applejack's party, starting with the flowers. Brave Heart sighs, "So yew are trying to bring different flowers fer this, eh?"

"Hey, roses are too obvious of course." Caramel remarks with a scoff.

"Come on, roses say 'I love you' in a way only lillies are only dreamt of!" Soarin' snaps to Caramel right back.

"Well, because of your fighting, Applejack won't have either." Twilight said with a sigh, looking worried. "And your master? What will he think?"

"Well, daddy like flowers, right? Well, I like to think so." Nyx said in concern herself.

---------

The Demon Pony turn to his side while sleeping with the flowers around his bed. The master has taken a sniff of the roses' scene...and smiles in his sleep. He likes the smell apparently.

---------

"And my music is superiror, Soarin's music has no scene of time." Caramel said while smirking at the frowning Soarin'.

"Well, yours doesn't got any emotion at all!" Soarin' scowls at Caramel in annoyance.

"Come on, can't you two work together for once without the fighting and the bickering?" Pinkamena whines to the two fighting colts. "I mean, you two would do better if you do that."

"Pinkamena is right, all the more reason that you should work together." Twilight said in agreement to Soarin' and Caramel. "You each has something to offer for the other."

"Yes...for example, I have talent." Soarin' said thoughtfully.

"Well, you can keep it! I wouldn't want to take the little that you got, thank you very much!" Caramel scowls to Soarin' while crossing his upper forelegs.

"All right, enough of ye two!" Brave Heart scowls furiously to Soarin' and Caramel. "Perhaps you lads have forgotten but this party isn't about either one of you at all!"

"Right, it's for our dear friend Applejack and your fighting isn't going to make her feel better!" Twilight remarks as she, Nyx, Spike and Brave Heart leaves the room, slamming the door close on their way out.

Pinkamena pauses then say, "They got a point, you two. Applejack won't be happy if you keep fighting like this. Perhaps you oguhta work together."

Soarin' and Caramel look upset. Perhaps Pinkamena is right, along with Twilight and Brave Heart. Perhaps they should stop fighting because everyone has to do a party to help Applejack.

Author's note
Hoo boy, the fighting is getting worst. In the next chapter, Soarin' and Caramel try to work together, but made things worst especially for the cake. Will the party be a success or will it be a flop? Read, review and suggest.

Chapter 10: Party of Friendship

Caramel hums his music masterpiece while Soarin' and Pinjamena watch on. Just as their friends suggested, the two colt decided to try to stop arguing and work together to work on Applejack's party.

As Caramel hums her masterpiece, he comments, "As the cake enters the parlot, it will build up majestically..."

"All right if I offer one slight suggestion for the melody?" Soarin' ask Caramel. Even if Twilight and Brave Heart told the two to work together, the Pegasus pony wanted to at least get some of his masterpiece in.

"See? You two are cooperating!" Pinkamena exclaims to the two colts happily. "I am going to enjoy this kinda party."

Caramel was about to respond but then he, Soarin' and Pinkamena saw Pidove by the window holding a letter in his mouth. The Earth pony comments, "Oh, that must be the weather prediction." Soarin' heads over to the window to let Pidove in. "Wait, no!"

Too late. When Soarin' opens the window, this causes the strong wind to be blown right into the room, sending the music papers right into the fireplace, being burnt to dust. "No, my masterpiece!"

"Oooh, tough luckie, Caramel." Pinkamena said with a shrug, making Caramel glare angrily right at Soarin', the one ruined all his hard work.

"That was deliberant."

"No, it was an accident! Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a needle in my eye!" Soarin' insist while doing the Pinkie Promise. "See? I can't break it, otherwise I would anger Pinkie Pie."

"Ooooh, you will be sorry for this!" Caramel exclaims furiously.

"But I told you, it was an accident!"

"At least let's see the weather prediction." Pinkamena said as she takes the letter from Pidove...but the strong wind blew it from her hooves, sending it into the fire place and burnign it up. "Oopsie."

The good news is that the colts didn't argue with Pinkamena over that. The bad news? They are now arguing with one another. The arguing gets worst by the moment!

--------------------

Back in the kitchen, Silver kept mixing the angel's food while the Cakes watch on. Hoity orders, "All right, enough. Now the devil's food."

The Cakes switch bowls as Silver begins mixing the devil's food. Twilight and Nyx came into the kitchen, the mare smiles while saying, "Well, you all look so officate."

"And you're being nice instead of arguing!" Nyx chirps in making Twilight chuckle a bit.

"That's what I meant, Nyx."

"Well, I have things under control after all. The butters will be ready to bake." Hoity Toity said place while clapping his hooves. "Now warm the oven, you three!"

"Well, glad to see that you're all working together, keep it up!" Twilight exclaims happily as she and Nyx leaves the kitchen to check on the other preparations. Things are going well, right?

Wrong. Caramel was hiding nearby outside, watching Twilight and Nyx leave. Time for payback on Soarin' for ruining his masterpiece (Not convinced that it was an accident). The Earth pony snuck by the kitchen and whispers to Mr. Cake, "Psst! Carrot!" The colt heard him and saw his friend motioning him over. Mr. Cake came over to the hall as Caramel whispers, "All right, now listen. We both wanted this cake to be angel's food, correct?"

"Yes, a heavenly taste for one heavenly creature." Mr. Cake said in agreement.

"Yes, but we compromise for both Soarin' and your wife...that unfortunate devil's food, ick! But perhaps if the angel's food were to be larger than the devil's food..."

Unknown to Caramel and Mr. Cake, Soarin' was talking to Mrs. Cake in secret, wanting to get back at Caramel for falsely accusing him. The filly looks shocked at what he suggested, making her ask, "Wait, what? You wanted to make our side of the cake to be larger?!"

Soarin' hush her, not wanting anyone to hear. The colt explains, "Precisely! Think of how cool it would, especially since that bland angel's food mess being forced on us by Caramel and your husband."

"Well...I love Carrot but he has no taste whatsoever."

"Yes, yes, couldn't agree more. But perhaps if we were to add some eggs..."

Caramel meanwhile is continuing his own conversion with Mr. Cake, suggesting, "Some baking soda...oh yes, some little yeasts, perhaps?"

"Yeah, it could be huge!" Mr. Cake exclaims with a smile.

Of course, Pinkamena is nearby, hiding watching Caramel and Soarin' talking to the Cakes. The pink pony mumbles, "Hoo boy. I got a bad feeling that this party won't be any good."

-----------

Twilight, Nyx and Brave Heart goes into the room, looking around. The colt ask Pinkie Pie, "Pinkie, have ye seen Applejack around?"

"Nope! Coast is clear like on the beach, Brave Heart!" Pinkie assures Brave Heart with a smile.

Twilight closes the door, sighing in concern, "Well, that problem is taking care of but we got another. All the flowers somehow ended up in the Demon Pony's room."

"Hoo boy, not good. There's no telling how the master will react. You notice things that he doesn't understand tend to upset him."

"Come on, daddy may get upset by some things but surely flowers can't freak him out, right?" Nyx ask Pinkie, making the others look at her in concern. "Hmmm, I guess that could happen."

"Right, an upset Demon Pony is hte last thing that the Demon Pony needs right now." Twilight said in concern. She knows of one thing, those flowers got to get out of the bedroom, now!

-----------

The Demon Pony was still sleeping as Twilight sneaks quietly into his room. The mare goes by him in hopes to get the flowers out before he wakes up. Twilight picks some up and begins to trot back.

Suddenly the Demon Pony turn over, toss one upper foreleg and hitting the flower, making Twilight gasps. She hopes that the creature didn't wake up! The mare gallops out of the room, luckily for her the Demon Pony didn't wake him.

Nyx, Pinkie Pie and Brave Heart saw Twilight leaving the room as the alicorn colt remarks, "Phew. Ye got out of there in one piece, lass."

"Right, you looked like you've seen a ghost, Twilight." Pinkie giggles a bit.

"Pinkie, that isn't funny."

"Right, that was foolish, I almost woke him up." Twilight said with a sigh of concern. If she has made one false move...hoo boy, it wouldn't be pleasant at all!

"Come on, mommy, you did get the flowers, right" Nyx ask Twilight hopefully. The mare sighs as she shows the flowers that Twilight has taken, the same ones wrecked by the Demon Pony.

"Almost."

"Hoo boy, that doesn't look good." Pinkie said in concern while cringing. Those flowers look like they've been through Tartarus!

"Well, perhaps we don't need the flowers for the party." Twilight said in assuration.

"Aye, we just need the music and the cake. I'm sure that Hoity's cake will turn out fine..." Brave Heart said, trying to assure his friends that everything else will be fine.

"Hope Spring is eternal." Pinkie said in concern as she begins shaking a bit. "Because my Pinkie Sense is going off. Something's bad is about to happen in the kitchen!"

"Yikes." Nyx yelps in worry. That doesn't sound good.

-------------

Sure enough, part of the cake came gushing out of the oven in the kitchen. Hoity frantically saw what's going to happen, screaming, "Help! Someone, the cake has gone terribly wrong!"

"No, I think I've overdid it!" Mr. Cake gasps in horror and alarm.

"So did I!" Mrs. Cake exclaims with a yelp, making her husband gasps with her. It occur to the both of them that they both make their side of the cake too large.

"In other words..."

"Uh oh..."

The Cakes rush out of the cake as Mr. Cake groans in worry and guilt, "Very typical! The left hoof doesn't got any right for what the right one is doing! Help, we need some help!"

"Let me help!" Pinkamena, who saw what happened, exclaims as she follow the Cakes back into the oven to help them try to stop the oven but it's about to blow up at any given moment!

"Caramel, Soarin', hurry, hurry!" Twilight exclaims to the two colts as the trio, Nyx, Spike and Brave Heart rush to the kitchen. Trouble is about to happen.

Mr. Cake does his best to open the oven door but it won't do so. The colt groans, "No good, Cup Cake, it won't budge!"

"Pull harder, Carrot!" Mrs. Cake exclaims as her husband does his best to open the oven door. But the oven itself begins to shake and gushing out more part of the cake.

"HIT THE DECK!" Pinkamena screams in terror as she ducks for cover.

Soon an explosion noise is seen as all parts of the cake splattered all over the place as well as Twilight's group who came in at that moment. Spike groans, "Yuck! I like cake but this is too much!"

"Great Scott! What's goin' on here?" Brave Heart demands to Pinkamena, the Cakes, Silver and the furious Hoity Toity. The cake is ruined!

Applejack and the CMC rush into the kitchen, hearing the explosion. The cowpony exclaims in shock, "Great horny toads! What happened in here?!"

"Wow, it looks like a mess!" Sweetie exclaims, her eyes widen at the mess in the kitchen.

"I will tell you what happened, my cake was ruined, destroyed by sabouteurs!" Hoity exclaims furiously while glaring at the Cakes making them step back.

"Well...sorry I didn't say much earlier...but two colts got angry and..." Pinkamena said as she and the Cakes glares at Soarin' and Caramel, the ones responsible for what happened. The Pegasus pony groans while his pal spits out the cake from his mouth.

"Oh, why am I not surprised?" Twilight ask, frowning while glaring at the two colts.

"Guys, I thought you were supposed to cooperate. What happened?" Nyx ask Caramel and Soarin' upset.

"Hey, it's his fault! He and Carrot ruined my awesome exquisite cake with that blasted angel's food!" Soarin' protestes, putting the blame right onto Caramel.

"Me?! Well, you and Cup Cake destroyed my masterpiece by working on that inferno devil's food!" Caramel yells at Soarin' right back.

"Hey, are we going to have cake or not?" Scootaloo ask with a pouty look on her face.

"Okay, enough, ENOUGH!" Hoity yells furiously, having enough of this. "There won't be any cake at all!"

"Wait, so there isn't going to be any cake for Applejack's party?" Sweetie ask in concern.

Unfortunately, most of the others gasps in shock as Apple Bloom yells out, "Sweetie Belle!" The foal unicorn went and ruin the surprise right in front of Applejack.

"Ooops..."

"Nice going, blabber mouth." Scootaloo groans as he looks at Applejack, who looks shocked. The cake was a party...just for her?

"Applejack, I'm sorry, we wanted to cheer you up but..." Twilight begins to sigh, apologizing to her friend for this madness getting out of hand, ruining a party that everypony wanted so much for her.

"Shucks, it ain't yer fault...but 'dis doesn't cheer me up one bit." Applejack said with a sad sigh. "If anything, Ah ended up feeling worst."

"Applejack, we're sorry...this party would've been better if certain ponies would stop arguing and not make a mess." Spike said sternly, glaring angrily at Soarin', Caramel and the Cakes for ruining everything.

"Look, let's get you by the fire." Twilight said as she takes Applejack by the fire place in another room.

"But Ah don't git, what about 'de party?" Apple Bloom ask Twilight sadly.

"Sorry, Apple Bloom. There isn't going to be one."

"But...I don't understand. Why no party, mommy?" Nyx ask her mother in sadness.

"I'm the one responsible, Applejack...I'm so...really sorry." Twilight said sadly as she and Applejack enters the room to be by the fire with some of the others following, watching this.

"Not 'ta worry, yer intentions were good. It just pains me 'ta see such fighting amongst those dear 'ta me." Applejack said sadly.

"Try not to think about it, okay? Just try and relax." Spike assures Applejack as he, Twilight and Nyx heads off to leave the saddened Applejack be by herself, alone.

"Apple Bloom...Ah sure hope yew and yer friends are not disappointed, but a party should be a happier occassion...not one 'dat pit friends against one another. Yew understand, right?"

"Yeah, we understand." Sweetie said with a sad sigh as Apple Bloom and Scootaloo nod in disappointment. It was going to be a good party and the whole thing was ruined thanks to intense arguing.

Brave Heart frowns as he scolds Caramel, Soarin' and the Cakes, "Well, lads and lass, I hope yer're all proud of yerself! Ye ruined what was going to be a happy moment fer Applejack...and why? Because ye can't get along and were all selfish! Is it worth it, huh?! Is it?!"

The four didn't answer Brave Heart, they all look down, feeling ashamed and guilty for letting down their good friend Applejack.

-----------

In the living room, Soarin', Caramel, the Cakes, Silver and Pinkamena sat by the fireplace, most of them feel ashamed and guilty because of their fighting and arguing. Soarin' said sadly, "Man, we've went and made foals out of ourselves again."

"Yep, you went and mess up." Pinkamena said with a nod.

"And disappointed a good friend." Caramel said with a sigh.

"Well, what are you going to do about it, huh?"

"Well, we could show Twilight and Brave Heart that we can do it." Mr. Cake said thoughtfully and in determination. Their fighting and arguing end up ruining things so the ones responsible must fix what they done.

"Right, we should show her that we can throw a party without arguing." Mrs. Cake said in agreement with her husband. Perhaps if the arguing ones can get along and work together, they can still make the party happen.

"Or blowing stuff up." Silver said with a light chuckle.

"How? There is no cake and Hoity Toity is soooo upset now." Pinkamena said in concern, pointing out how angry Hoity was before.

"Perhaps if we were to apologize to Hoity Toity, give our most sincere apology, perhaps he can bake us another cake." Caramel said hopefully.

"Well, it's worth a try." Mr. Cake said thoughtfully.

"Right, even he can't stay mad forever." Mrs. Cake said with a nod. After all, Hoity Toity can get mad easily but if given a sincere apology and admit to one's mistake, he can calm down eventually.

"All right, it's worht a try! Come on, the party must go on!" Soarin' exclaims in determination.

"Right, and I will supervise, making sure things go right!" Pinkamena exclaims happily as the others cheer on. Time to fix this and make Applejack's party a reality.

------------

Applejack sat by the fireplace, still depressed by the weather and the arguing. Just then, the filly heard music coming from teh hallway, making her ask in confusion, "What 'de hay?"

"Surprise!" The CMC cheers as they, Caramel, Soarin', the Electric Mayhem, Twilight, Nyx, Spike, Brave Heart and Pinkamena came in, the band plays their music. Applejack gasps, smiling in amazement.

"Did you like it? I sure hope so!" Nyx chirps happily to the smiling Applejack.

"Mares and gentle-colts, it's a pleasure to stand before you with my good friend and colleague in honor of this great filly." Soarin' said, motioning to Applejack who blush at this.

"Yes, Applejack has given us the most important gift any pony can offer...true friendship." Caramel said with a smile.

Soon Silver, the Cakes and Hoity Hoity came in with a cake, Twilight smiles while saying, "We all wanted you to know how much we care for you, Applejack."

"Wow, Ah is speechless." Applejack said wiht a smile.

"Your good cheer is priceless." Soarin' comments, making Applejack blush once more by this.

"Timeless too! Why, we would be lost without you!" Caramel remarks in agreement.

"And let's not forget Pinkamena, she's the one who helped supervise and put things together." Brave Heart said with a smile. "I'm so proud of ye fer working together...and I betcha Golden Heart would be proud when he hears of this."

"Awww, it was nothing." Pinkamena said with a creepy laugh.

"Wow, thank yew...thank yew y'all! 'Dis is wonderful or more because yew did it together." Applejack exclaims happily. Looks like she is her old happy self again.

"Hey, look!" Spike exclaims as he points through a window. Sure enough, everyone saw the sun coming through the window. The weather has cleared up at last!

"Wow, look how beautiful!" Caramel exclaims with a smile.

"Yeehaw! There it is, 'dat good ol' sun!" Applejack exclaims with a grin.

"Yeah, that oughta cheer you up, right?" Twilight ask Applejack with a smile.

"Aww, shucks. Yew already have...each an' everyone o' yew." Applejack said with a smile. Her friends working together and throwing this party is enough to cheer this filly up.

"Well, lads and lasses, let's get this party started, shall we?" Brave Heart with a chuckle making the others cheer wildly. Time for the party to begin!

------------

Outside the castle, am alicorn with a Gold heart as his cutie mark is heading to the door and says, "This took longer than I thought but happy that the weather has lighten up. I hope that my little sister is ok." He looks up at the windows. "The poniess must be in the fireplace. Wonder why. Well time to find out."

-------------------

In the Demon Pony's room later, the master groans and finally wake up, ipenign his eyes. The stallion got up on his bed slowly from a good sleep. The Demon Pony sniffs around and seeing a rose right near him.

The Demon Pony sniffs the rose, seeing more like it in his room as well as other flowers. Suddenly...he begins to sneeze loudly. One of the flowers must've made him sneeze.
Brave Heart, Soarin' and Caramel came by the room to check on him and are startled to see him awake. The Demon Pony spoke up, "Brave Heart! Did you put these flowers in my room?"

"I didn't do it personally, Master...these two twits started it....at first." Brave Heart said while pointing a hoof to Soarin' and Caramel.

"You treacherous Scottish pony!" Soarin' exclaims in shock by Brave Heart's accusation.

"Haggis eater!" Caramel exclaims angrily.

"I'm just going to ignore you blabbermouths." Brave Heart remarks while rolling his eyes at the comments.

"Hey, it was Soarin's fault, not mine!"

"No, no, it was yours, yours!" Soarin' snaps as he and Caramel argue again. Here they go again.

"Soarin', Caramel, please...this arguing is gettin' us nowhere." Brave Heart said, causing the two to stop arguing since it caused a mess before. "Sorry, Master. It was all a complete accident and-."

"Actually, I like the flowers in my room." The Demon Pony admits, much to the surprise of the trio.

"You do? Well that's good news."

Author's note

Chapter 11: A Little Thought

As this chapter begins, Twilight is in the library, searching through books while jacobyel, Nyx and Spike watching. The mare show them a picture of a lion and a sheep. jacobyel glances at the picture then smiles as a song begins.

Twilight: Did you ever wonder what it's like
To wonder from a different point of view?
To try and see life differently
While doing what somebody else might do?


Twilight shows another page that has a picture of a fish and a bird to Goofy and Finn. They look closely and grin in approval.

Imagine seeing through a set of different eyes
You just might be surprised
You just might realize
That somebody might be wondering
And wonder what it's like to be like you


As the group walk down the hallway, Winona and Rarity joins them. Twilight smiles while petting the puppy happily.

In the kitchen, Mr. Cake pours powder into the bowl but then Mrs. Cake grabs itfrom him. Silver begins mixing the stuff in the bowl but ends up making a mess that send cream splattering right onto the Cakes.

A little thought
A little care
A little "when you ever need me, I'll be there"
A little give
A little take
A little "it's ok to make a small mistake"


Caramel is seen tapping a hoof while Dexter rush to where the servants stood attention. The colt has trouble finding a place to stand so Caramel push two of the MLP Tale ponies aside to allow Dexter to take a space. The Earth pony pats the unicorn on the head while Brave Heart smiles in approval.

A little time
A little space
A little chance to help somebody find their place
It isn't much, but it means a lot
It's not a little thing to have a little thought


In the dining room, Soarin' was cleaning Kairi very fast, grinning. We now see him and Caramel pulling on a rage needed to clean the floor. The two ponies pull it so hard that the thing ripped in half, sending the two falling to the floor with water splashed onto Soarin' and Caramel.

A little thought
A little care
A little "when you ever need me, I'll be there"
A little give
A little take
A little "it's ok to make a small mistake"


The floor is soon clean while Caramel and Soarin' work together by putting the chest right onto the floor.

A little time
A little space
A little chance to help somebody find their place
It isn't much, but it means a lot
It's not a little thing to have a little thought


After the song a knock is heard outside, making Rarity ask puzzled, "Now who is that?" The white unicorn filly goes to the door and answer it...

But we will find out in another story, shall we?

Author's note
Another great song, eh? In the next and final story of this fanmake, 'A Broken Wing', Twilight takes care of an injured bird named Kessie when she is supposed to have lunch with the Demon Pony. This could be a problem. Also, Caramel begins having trouble with the staff. Read, review and suggest.

All right, here we go, three more chapters left and this fic will soon be over. It's a late Christmas (so to speak) but I can get it done. Let's do this, shall we?

A Broken Wing

Chapter 12: A Bird Guest

It is another snowy day at the castle as things are normal...until the Demon Pony calls out, "Caramel! Caramel, where are you?"

Caramel trots as fast as he coudl to the West Wing, arriving at his master's bedroom. After opening the door, the colt ask, "You called, sir?"

"The filly shall join me for lunch tomorrow!"

"Right, excellent idea, sir! Perhaps a string for a touch providing..."

"Yes, there must be music and fresh flowers. I want the best linings, as well as the finest China and mix of silver." The Demon Pony adds with a grin. He wants everything to be perfect for his time with Twilight.

"Right, most certainly." Caramel said with a nod, getting the idea.

"Oh, and my jacket is still torn, why?" The Demon Pony snaps as he threw his black jacket right at Caramel. After it lands on him, the colt does his best to get out until he pop right out of the hole.

"What? I don't get it. I send this thing to the sewing basket a week ago! Not sure why..."

"Caramel, are you telling me that you are losing control of your staff?"

"What, me? No, sir!" Caramel yelps in worry, not liking the annoyed look on his master's face.

"Well, see that you don't!" The Demon Pony snaps as he leaves his room to talk to Twilight, inforiming him that she shall have lunch with him later.

Brave Heart, who was waiting outside, overheard the conversion, asking in amusement, "Being yerself, Benny lad?"

"I wanted my lunch tomorrow with Twilight to be perfect, that's all."

"Aye, but I suggest ye asked Twilight out with respect and care free. She is needed to break the spell after all."

"I know, I know...and maybe more but..." The Demon Pony sighs a bit. He felt like there's more to Twilight than a need to break the spell and Brave Heart knows it too.

"And....what does the master want for his lunch?" Caramel ask the Demon Pony while shaking a bit.

"What else? Perfection!" The Demon Pony snarls causing Caramel to shake a bit. Brave Heart sighs while shaking his head. The Earth pony prince needs to treat folks with caring and respect.

---------------------------

In the strong, snowy wind, a blue bird named Kessie is having trouble flying through the weather. The wind became so strong that it send her away and towards the castle, crashing right into the wall.

"This is the second time that I've played this role. But I really don't mind." Kessie mumbles a bit. The bird fell into a pile of snow. She got out and tries to fly away, only to fal and crash right towards the window of Twilight's, Nyx's and Spike's room.

"What's that?" Spike ask puzzled as he heard somethign bumping against the window.

Twilight out of curiosity goes to the window while Pinkie, not noticing her or hearing Spike's comment, spoke up, "Come on, the master is a nice guy when you overlook a few things." Twilight opens the window, gasping as Kessie is blown right into the foom before landing right onto the floor. Pinkie, still not noticing, continues as the purple mare picks the bird up with her magic, "There's his personality, his appearance, his manners, as well as that personal hyigene, taste enclosing, with no sense of humor...oh and that breath. Yuck! And..."

Suddenly Pinkie sneezes without warning. Spike, yelping, ask, "Pinkie? What's wrong?"

"Oh! I just sneeze big time, normally that happens when I'm allergic to something. And the only thing I'm allergic to is..."

Pinkie turns and gasps upon seeing Kessie being held by Twilight via magic. As the pink pony stutter a bit, the unicorn shows the bird who woke up, "Look, it's a blue bird!"

"Awww, isn't it cute?" Nyx ask with a smile to Kessie.

"No way, no! The master doesn't care for birds!" Pinkie exclaims in worry.

"Oh come on, it's only a bird." Twilight said to Pinkie puzzled. "What's wrong with this one?"

"The master doesn't like birds at all! He will get super duper angry if the master finds that bird in the castle!"

"Oh, come on! You're joking, right?" Spike ask Pinkie with a scoff, making the pink filly give a serious look to the baby dragon.

"Trust me, I wish I was joking." Pinkie said seriously. "If he finds that thing here...hoo boy. It won't be pretty."

Suddenly a loud knock is heard on the door, followed by the Demon Pony's demanding tone of voice, "Twilight Sparkle, you in here?"

"Eeek! Do something with it, Twilight, hurry! Hurry or the master will get mad!"

"Right, in here, in here!" Nyx exclaims as Twilight rushes to put Kessie right into Pinkie's closet.

"No, no, not there!" Pinkie exclaims frantically, fearing that the master will find Kessie in there.

"Twilight! If you're in there, open the door now!" The Demon Pony demands outside as Caramel, Applejack and Brave Heart shook their heads, embarrassed by the master's behavior as he knocks on the door some more. Just then Twilight finally opens the door, making the Demon Pony calm down, looking a bit embarrassed. "Err, uh...what took you so long?"

"Calm down, master. Twilight, the master himself wants..." Brave Heart begins to explains as he, the Demon Pony, Caramel and Applejack came into the room. The four saw Pinkie sneezing like crazy, much to the master's concern. "Pinkie? Ye okay, lass?"

"Oh wow! Any pony wearing cassimere? Must be. Is it just me or is it really hot in here?" Pinkie ask frantically as she sneezes some more.

The Demon Pony, confused and concerns, trots next to Caramel who motions to his master and whispers, "The invite, master..."

"Yeah?" The Demon Pony ask, not getting what Caramel mean at first.

"The invitation, master. The invitation."

"Oh, right, right. Ahem, Tiwlight Sparkle...you are having lunch with me!"

Caramel slaps himself with a hoof, the Demon Pony's yelling may have doomed his chances. Twilight, frowning, ask, "Oh, am I?"

"Yeah, you are." The Demon Pony said sternly causing the mare to turn around and cross her upper forelegs.

"No, I will not!"

"Honestly, daddy, if you want to act like that, you won't be asking mommy to lunch for a long time." Nyx said with a concerned sigh. "I mean, the way you did it is very rude."

Caramel clears his throat and explains, "The alicorn filly has a poiny. Perhaps the master should be a bit more...gracing, perhaps?"

"And why should I?" The Demon Pony snaps to Caramel, making the colt yelps nervously.

"Oh, oh! Precisely my point! Err, you shouldn't blame Twilight, she and her daughter was out of line. What, was she born in a barn?"

"Master, lad, ye must understand, Twilight is new to the castle as is Nyx and Spike." Brave Heart points out to the Demon Pony with a nod.

"Eeyup, Brave Heart is right. Perhaps a certain courtesy could help y'all out here." Applejack adds with a smile while stepping forard.

The Demon Pony calms down, nodding in understanding as he said, "You're right, Applejac. Thanks."

"Show off." Caramel remarks with a scoff as the Demon Pony steps closer to Twilight. Perhaps if he should be calmer and nicer, asking her out...

"Ahem, Twilight? Perhaps if you will join me for lunch...that is if you don't have any other plans."

"Well, I hardly have plans nowadays...but since you put it that way, I will accept." Twilight said gently, making her and the Demon Pony smile. The master turns to Applejack, her advice has worked.

"What did Ah tell yew? It's ya'll in 'de asking." Applejack explains with an approving smile.

"Aye, and being polite helps too." Brave Heart remarks, proud by how the Demon Pony has handled the question.

"Can Nyx and I come too...if that's all right?" Spike ask Twilight and the Demon Pony, the two nod meaning 'yes'. "Cool."

"Okay, you are expected at 12 o'clock sharp and right on the dot precisely." Caramel explains as to what time that Twilight, Nyx and Spike must arrive for lunch.

The Demon Pony, Caramel, Applejack and Brave Heart leaves the room, it looks like the reason for the visit is concluded. But then the Demon Pony sniffs around, making him suspicious. As he sniffs around the room, the master demands, "What is that smell?"

"What smell?" Nyx ask her adopted daddy with an innocent smile.

"That smell...I smell something new..."

"Err, small? I don't smell anything." Pinkie said nervously as she shivers, pretending to be cold. "Brrr! Hey, is it just or me is it super duper cold in here all of the sudden?"

The Demon Pony gave an annoyed glare to Pinkie as he snaps, "I smell something, I just know it!"

"Err, must be my sock door...been meaning to air it out."

The Demon Pony glares in annoyance. Luckily, he bought that excuse and leaves the room with the ones who came in with him. Twilight closes the door, sighing in relief. Unknown to her, Applejack and Brave Heart opens the door to see what's going on.

"Phew, close one there." Spike said with a sigh of relief. "He almost found her!"

"Tell me about it, we are talking close! One more step from him and I would be a goner for sure!" Pinkie exclaims with a cringe. "Yeah, I will be seeing life flash before my eyes, my heart pumping like mad...what a rush!"

As Pinkie fell onto the bed, Twilight took out something from the dresser: it was Kessie which the Demon Pony has smelt. Nyx remarks, "Talk about your close ones. Why does daddy hate birds so much?"

"Right, what does he possibly has against something like this?" Twilight ask while smiling at Kessie. It doesn't make sense for the Demon Pony to hate birds.

"Simple, it's beautiful, lovely, sweet...everything he isn't." Pinkie remarks with a shrug.

"Mommy! Look at her wing!" Nyx gasps as Kessie got up and points to her wing...which is broken from the accidents.

"What's wrong with it?" Spike ask Nyx in concern.

"Oh no, her wing is badly injured. We'll have to take care of her until her wing is mended." Twilight said in worry.

"Well, well, Brave Heart an' Ah found something is fishy in here." Applejack said with a grin while she and Brave Heart came into the room. "An' it's a blue bird too!"

"Gah, Applejack!" Pinkie exclaims in worry as she rush over to block Twilight's group along with Kessie. Not good. Applejack and Brave Heart is going to tell the Demon Pony about this!

"Relax yourself, lass. Don't get yerself warmed up. Yer secret is safe with the both of us." Brave Heart assures while glancing at the poor bird. "Soooo, this little one got in here by accident, aye?"

"Yeah, look at its wing!" Nyx exclaims as Twilight shows the broken wing to both Applejack and Brave Heart.

"Oh, will yew look at 'de poor thing, she has a rough time out there." Applejack said in pity. "Any chance we can help?" Twilight smiles, at least she knows that she herself and her group can count on Applejack and Brave Heart to keep Kessie a secret.

------------------------

With Brave Heart's help, Twilught was able to put a bandage and a splint to hold the wind. Scootaloo couldn't help but chuckle, "That bird looks fiunny with a stick under her arm."

Kessie glares at Scootaloo for the comment, Twilight chuckles as she explains, "That's a splint, Scootaloo, it's to hold her wing into place whilt it's healed."

Spike put down a cup of water next to Kessie, allowing the bird to drink. Brave Heart said, "Aye. The poor thing has gone through rough."

"Yew ready fer me yet?" Applejack ask her friends with a grin while she and Apple Bloom prepares the water to help clean off Kessie.

"It isn't too warm, right?" Nyx ask Applejack in concern.

"Relax, sugar cube. Ah done given a bath or two in mah life."

"Right, she made us take one everyday...even if we wanted to or not." Sweetie explains to Kessie making the bird giggle.

"All right, here we go!" Applejack exclaims as she pour water right onto Kessie, cleaning the bird up. The other smiles hopefully. As long as Kessie is kept a secret from the Demon Pony until she's well enough to fly on her own, everything should be fine.

------------------

It was later that day. Everyone was having a good time when Rarity come in and says, "Attention everypony. We're having a guest here that many of you might know and some of you that do not know will soon find out especially you Pinkamena."

"Awww, I know who it is already. Come on in, Goldie!" Pinkamena giggles as Golden Heart came in with a smile.

"How did you know it was me?" Golden Heart ask Pinkamen in amusement.

"You came here before, duh! Caramel called us here for the lunch tomorrow."

Caramel got in front of everyone as he calls everyone's attention. The colt calls out, "All right, I suppose you all wanted to know why you're all here...well minus Golden Heart but only because you don't live here. No offense."

"None taken." Golden Heart said with a grin.

"Well, you are here because I summoned you. When I speak, ponies listen. But enough about me. As you know, the master's..."

Caramel was cut off, looking annoyed as Soarin' playfully chase Rainbow around, the mare teases, "Can't catch me, Soarin'!"

"Ha ha ha! You can't get away from me that easily, Dashie!" Soarin' remarks as he chases Rainbow around some more.

"Soarin'!" Caramel scowls as he grabs Soarin', stopping him. "Stop chasing her!"

"Hey, come on! It's my golden life!"

"Caramel, perhaps if you were to be like a gentle-colt and..." Rarity begins to say, trying to help Caramel bring the staff under control.

"Let me handle this, Rarity! Ahem, as I was saying..." Of course, Caramel was cut off again as Pipsqueak and Twist has a sword fight with wooden swords. "Ugh, come on, do you two mind?!"

"Oh, sorry, Caramel." Pipsqueak said sheepishly as he and Twist stop their playing around.

"Thanks. I was..." Of course, Caramel was interrupted once more, that's because Brian and Surprise were goofing off, ignoring the colt. "Enough, okay, as I was..." Unfortunately, the ponies continue playing around and goofing off, obviously ignoring Caramel once more! Even Soarin' went back to chasing Rainbow once more.

"Poor Caramel, having bad luck, eh?" Pinkamena teases Caramel, much to his annoyance.

"Ponies! Ponies, come on!" Caramel groans a bit, the servants won't listen to him, this is no good. As Applejack came up, the colt sighs sadly. "I don't get it. Those ponies just want to play around, not listening to a word that I said."

"There, there, Caramel. Allow lil' ol' me 'ta help." Applejack chuckles. The filly gave out a whistle that is so loud, the ponies stop what they're doing, giving her their full attention. "All righty, everypony! We must be gitting along wit' our chores! 'De master is having Twilight, Nyx an' Spike 'fer lunch..."

"Yes, yes, and I won't have nothing less than perfection. Now the first order of business is..." Of course, Caramel looks annoyed and for a good reason: the ponies are goofing off once more. "Ugh! Again with this?!"

"Allow Applejack to handlke this." Golden Heart insists making Applejack smile to Caramel, the colt sighs then motions her to go ahead.

"All righty, ponies, let's git a move, okay?" Applejack orders the servants who quickly heads off to do what she asked them to do. The filly gave out certain instructions to ponies while continuing, "Yew ponies go 'ta 'de kitchen 'ta clean 'de dishes. Yew ponies head off 'ta polish 'de silverwater. Everyone else, yew git 'de idea."

Caramel couldn't believe it, these ponies are listening to Applejack, but not him. The colt ask the filly, "I don't understand, how do you do that?"

"Shucks, 'dat ain't so complicated. Yew got 'ta know how 'ta talk 'ta them, nice an' sweet like."

"Yep, not being so dull and bossy-like!" Pinkamena giggles as she, Applejack, Raritty and Golden Heart heads off.

"Ugh, nice and sweet, not so dull and bossy-like...ugh! It's that kinda nonsense is what cause those disciple problems. Those ponies will be brought back under control, that is what they need. I have the firm hoof to do just that!" Caramel snaps as he closes the door to head off for lunch.

Author's note
What a start, eh? Twilight and some of her friends are trying to keep Kessie a secret from the Demon Pony and Caramel is having trouble with his staff. In the next chapter, when Twilight ends up forgetting the lunch with the Demon Pony, the master finds out and gets mad.

Nyx: But then things get worst, right?

Me: Right, especially since he likes Kessie's singing to the point that the Demon Pony locks her up in a cage...and that's when things get bad between him and Twilight. Caramel meanwhile tries to get rough with the staff. Read, review and suggest.

Kessie was in the role of the injured bird in 'Ariel's Magical World'.

Okay, two more chapters to go and this fic will be done. It's almost time for 2012 to end but I will do my best to end this baby before then.

Chapter 13: Prisoners and Disrespect

It was the next day as lunchtime has rolled around. The Demon Pony is in the dining room pacing...but no sign of Twilight, Nyx and/or Spike. Where are they?"

"Where are they?" The Demon Pony ask Caramel, who is standing nearby, impatiently.

"Not sure." Caramel said while crossing his upper foreleg, not happy. The colt is upset of how the staff doesn't respect him and all that.

"What time is it?"

"I don't know that either, sir."

"What do ypu mean 'you don't know'?" The Demon Pony demands to Caramel more than he asked, causing the colt to yelp in fright.

"Errr, wait, I do know...I have a watch and all and it's...12:07 P.M." Caramel said nervously while glancing at his watch. The Demon Pony snarl furiously. "Maybe she is getting dressed or something."

"She better has a better reason than that!!!"

-------------------------------

Twilight does has a better reason but it isn't what the Demon Pony had in mind: she, Nyx and their friends are taking care of Kessie, drying him up. Brave Heart comments, "There, that's a lassie."

"All right, then, are you hungry?" Twilight ask Kessie with a grin.

---------------------

"I am hungry!" The Demon Pony snarls furiously. What is taking Twilight so longer to get to dinner?

"Err, perhaps she thinks that I said 12 at midnight?" Caramel suggests with a nervous chuckle.

"FOR LUNCH?! THAT'S STUPID!!!"

---------------------

Twilight has fed Kessie as it chirps happily. Nyx chuckles, "There you go. Oh, you're going to have some fun, aren't you?"

"Yeah...but I got a feeling that we're forgetting something." Spike said, getting a nagging feeling that he and his pals are forgetting something important...

--------------------

Caramel kept pacing in the dining room while the Demon Pony sat there in annoyance. What is keeping Twilight, Spike and Nyx so long? Have they forgotten or don't even care to come to lunch?

"Come on, I suggest that you sit patiently, sire. How about we play some cards and wait for Twilight to..." Caramel begins to suggest while holding out some cards. Needless to say, the Demon Pony roars furiously, sending the said cards out of his hooves. Enough is enough!

"I'm going to go get her!" The Demon Pony snaps furiously as he storms out of the room. Twilight has better have a good reason to be late!

"Ugh, once again, no one pays any attention to a word I say. I could sit here, let them get my wit out of me...then..."

"Well, Caramel? You coming or not?!"

"Oh, right, right, right behind you!" Caramel yelps in alarm as he follows the master. Hoo boy, Twilight will be in so much trouble...

-----------

Twilight uses her magic to cover up Kessie with a little blanket, the bird is given a small basket for her to use as a bed. The purple unicorn said gently, "There, rest is all you need."

"Aye, at least nothing bad would..." Brave Heart begins to say.

Suddenly without warning, the doors are slammed open by force as the Demon Pony storms in, roaring furiously, "WHAT IS KEEPING YOU?!"

"Oh yeah, now I remember." Spike said sheepishly, remembering the lunch. "The lunch..."

"Oh right, I forgot all about you." Twilight said nervously as she sat on her bed behind Kessie. Hoo boy, in the fuss of helping the bird, the mare has forgotten about her lunch with the Demon Pony.

"Wait, you forgot?" The Demon Pony ask in disbelief as well as hurt by what he's hearing.

"Oh, sorry, daddy. The thing is, well..." Nyx beigns to say as she stops and look to Pinkie Pie, who shake her head nervously, wanting to still keep Kessie a secret.

"Well, you see, we..." Spike begins to say, though he saw Applejack shaking her head in a huge panic, knowing that the master will be furious once the truth comes out.

Twilight sighs, may as well tell the truth, "Listen, the truth is, Nyx, Spike and I have found a blue bird today and..."

"Wait, you found what?" The Demon Pony ask in shock and disbelief. The reason that Twilight has missed lunch is because of a bird?

"Look, it's a blue bird, daddy." Nyx said while looking concerned to Kessie. "She was wounded and..."

"That doesn't make any difference, Nyx! There won't be any creatrues allowed in my castle! Get rid of it now!"

"Are you crazy?! I won't do that!" Twilight protests to the Demon Pony in anger. How could the master be so cruel by demanding like that?

"Aye, I agree with her, lad! We can't just abandoned Kessie like this!" Brave Heart remarks angrily and annoyed by the demand.

"'Kessie'?" The Demon Pony ask Brave Heart puzzled.

"That is what we decided to call her."

"Fine, but you will get rid of it, Twilight! She found it so it's her job to get rid of the thing!"

"But he needs us, we are taking care of him! We bathed him, bandaged, fed him and..." Twilight begins to explain while a worried Kessie pops out of the blanket.

"WELL, YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO...eat with me..." The Demon Pony ask in concern, sadness and hurt. Twilight has forgotten to have lunch with him, all because of Kessie.

"Look, daddy, we're sorry that we forgot, we really do." Nyx said to the Demon Pony with a sigh. "Kessie of course is our main focus."

"Right, she got a major injury, Kessie needs our attention." Twilight said in concern while trotting up to the Demon Pony. He got to have some kindness in him...right?

The Demon Pony sighs...then got angry while demanding, "I want that thing out of this castle NOW!" Of course, this begins to scare Kessie, making her hop out of the basket and off the bed, hoping as fast as she can. "Hey, come back here! Somepone catch that thing!"

"Right, no promise, sir!" Caramel exclaims as he helps the Demon Pony chase Kessie around the room. The monster jumps and fell to the floor in hopes that he has caught Kessie. But to his annoyance, the Demon Pony ended up catching Caramel instead,

The two saw Kessie hopping out of the room with the Demon Pony getting up to pursue her once more. The bird hop down the stairs with him and Caramel in pursuit. Twilight, Nyx, Spike, Brave Heart and Pinkie Pie follows, worrying for the poor Kessie herself.

Nyx yells out in horror, "Leave Kessie alone!"

"But the master..." Caramel begins to explains to Nyx in concern.

"Forget what Daddy said! This is a sick creature and your just going to turn its back on it?!"

"No, but if we don't do what the Master tells us to do, we will be in trouble."

In an ironic sort of way, the Demon Pony ends up tripping over Caramel, sending the two fallen down the stairs. The master hits his head by the stairs, landing onto the floor while groaning in pain.

"Oh no!" Twilight gasps in horror as she and the others run downstairs. They hope that the fall didn't hurt the Demon Pony too much.

"Great horny toads! He's all right?" Applejack ask in alarm and worry.

"I hope so. Please wake up, please.." Twilight said sadly as the mare caress the Demon Pony's face while Nyx nuzzles him a bit. For a moment, it looks like he will never wake up again.

"Come on, let's not gather up too close and...MASTER!" Caramel gasps as he got up and saw the Demon Pony is down. The colt rush over to check on him.

Kessie got onto a statue and begins singing very lovely. Amazingly, the music causes the Demon Pony to stir and open his eyes, seeing Kessie. The master for the first time ever smiles at the thing while saying, "That...that is very beautiful."

"That is what I'm trying to tell you." Twilight said with a gentle smile. Looks like the Demon Pony has finally gotten over his hatred of birds, the singing was enough to touch him.

"Looks like you don't hate birds anymore, eh?" Spike ask with a smile to the Demon Pony.

"Yeah...such a wonderful sound." The Demon Pony said while sitting up, rubbing the back of his mane. He got up and heads to Kessie adding, "Kessie must never leave the castle."

"Wait, what?" Nyx ask in confusion and concern as the Demon Pony held a paw out, allowing Kessie to hop onto it.

"That's right. I shall keep him in a cage in the parlor."

"Hang on, she will be well soon." Twilight points out to the Demon Pony in concern.

"Aye, Kessie has proven that she can be a good friend and something ye will hate, not something to be locked up forever." Brave Heart points out to the Demon Pony in concern.

"Look, she isn't any of your concern!" The Demon Pony snaps to the group sternly.

"But you can't keep Kessie in a cage! She needs to be free!" Twilight exclaims in disbelief. Once again, the Demon Pony is acting selfish, not wanting to listen even after something wonderful has happened to him!

"Well, Kessie is free to sing for me."

"You can't do that to her!" Spike protests to the Demon Pony in disbelief. "That isn't cool or right!"

"Right, we won't let you!" Twilight exclaims in agreement and concern.

"It isn't your place to talk that way to me, Twilight Sparkle! Kessie is mine now! I've spoken and there isn't anymore to be said here! I will having lunch in the parlor!" The Demon Pony snarls as he heads to the direction of the parlor, taking Kessie who is now frightened with him.

"Ugh, I don't believe this." Brave Heart said groaning as Twilight sat down on the steps. "Kessie isn't to be locked away and to be kept away from her freedom like this."

"I know, he can't do this." Twilight said in sadness.

"Right, it isn't fair, mommy!" Nyx whines as she nuzzles Twilight. "Why must daddy act like a creep this way?"

"Shucks, let's not lose hope everypony." Applejack said though in sadness as well. "Once yew lost 'dat, you've lost everything."

---------------

In the dining room, Caramel tries once more to get his staff to listen, explaining about the master's lunch in the parlor now due to Kessie's presence.

"All right, the lunch will be rescheduled for one in the..." Caramel was interrupted once more as Bright-Eyes and Starlight are sword fighting like little foals (literally). Enough is enough aso Caramel separate the two while snapping, "Enough of this! If you two fillies can't listen to what I say and such, your services won't be eneded!"

"Oh come on, Earth pony head." Soarin' chuckles as he, Golden Heart, Pinkamena and Rainbow came up to them. "They are only foals and are having fun."

"Yeah, come on, don't be a super duper grumpy pants!" Pinkamena exclaims happily to Caramel.

"Listen, if I wanted any advice, I will ask for it! Now, to your rooms, NOW!" Caramel snaps at Bright Eyes and Starlight angrily, causing the two fillies to look down in sadness and leave the dining room. Turning to the four, Caramel then snaps, "Well, if you four want to join them..."

"Fine, come on, Goldie, we're leaving. Caramel's no fun anymore."

"Yeah, with the Demon Pony keeping that poor bird a prisoner...some new darkness just came to this castle." Golden Heart said seriously as he, Pinkamena and Soarin' trots off. Rainbow frowns at Caramel while following the three leaving. Caramel is being a jerk and disrespectful.

Caramel turn to the ponies that stood in attention, remarking, "Listen up! This is how things shall be from now on and I alone am in charge!" The colt smiles in triumph, they will have to listen to him now.

----------------------------------------------------

Kessie looks sad, she is in a cage, trapped and basically a prisoner of the Demon Pony who wants her to sing but she won't do so. This is frustrating and angering the Demon Pony big time.

"What's wrong with you? Why won't you sing?" The Demon Pony demands more than he asked to Kessie.

"Okay, look lively now..." Caramel said with a grin as Soarin', Rainbow, Golden Heart, Pinkamena, Applejack and the CMC came into the room, most of them are sad.

"Come on, I don't have all day! Just sing!"

"You know, Demon Pony old pal, perhaps if you were to be nice maybe..." Pinkamena begins to suggests to the Demon Pony but the master just frowns at her. "Okay! Fine! Don't take my suggestion!"

"Master, maybe if you were to sing, perhaps Kessie could too." Caramel suggests to the Demon Pony, wanting to help out.

"Yes, good idea, Caramel...you do it." The Demon Pony said, much to Caramel's shock and alarm.

"What?! But master! I don't know nothing music and..."

"Sing!"

"Oh yeah, this oughta be good." Golden Heart remarks to Pinkamena who giggles a bit. Caramel clears his throat as he begins to sing...not very good especially since the colt was only better when singing with others.

"Good? More like bad, baked bads with a capital BLECK!" Pinkamena comments making her adopted brother chuckles a bit. It's funny because it's soooo true!

"No more, no more! That's terrible!" The Demon Pony exclaims while covering his ears from Caramel's awful singing. "Go get Twilight."

"Right, your wish is my to command." Caramel said sheepishly as he gallops out of the room to go fetch Twilight. The Demon Pony pauses to think then hums quietly and sings. Maybe if he were to do so...

But no, Kessie just stood there, sad and still refusing to sing. The Demon Pony frowns as he ask, "You aren't going to sing for me again, are you?" The bird respond by turning around, making her captor frown even more.

A voice camt out of the mirror, a familiar one, "Just kill the bird."

"What the-"

"Do it."

The Demon Pony looks worried and confused. Who was that? It can't be Spike, he isn't Lorcan Hyde anymore!

----------------------------------------------

Twilight and Nyx sighs sadly as they look outside at the birds singing, reminding them of poor Kessie, locked up in a cage and being forced (or not) by the Demon Pony to sing for him. How will they convince the creature to let her go?

Just then Caramel came in, clearing his throat while saying, "The master wants your presence immediately and not sooner, Miss Sparkle."

"I'm busy." Twilight said with a deep frown. If this is about the bird, then the Demon Pony better had changed his mind and let poor Kessie go!

"Right, let the Demon Pony bug someone else." Nyx said with a grown of annoyance.

"You are busy? Well, regardless, you are to come with me at this moment." Caramel said seriously to Twilight making her sigh.

"Oh all right." Twilight said as she and Nyx prepares to leave the room. Who knows? Maybe the Demon Pony can be convinced to let Kessie go. Maybe...

----------------------

Spike and Brave Heart came into the parlor, the Demon Pony is still trying to get Kessie to sing. The alicorn colt sighs in annoyance while saying, "Ben, I know ye like Kessie's singing, she's a good singer...but ye can't keep her like a prisoner like this."

"Yeah, come on, be a pal and let Kessie go, okay?" Spike ask the Demon Pony in agreement.

"But I want to hear her sing but Kessie is just giving me nothing but silent treatment." The Demon Pony said with a groan of annoyance to the two. "Maybe I should..."

"That's the spirit, Benny!" An evil laugh came from the mirror, the trio turns to see Spike's reflection moving...except it's a familiar villain not seen in a while.

"How did you..."

"You again?" Brave Heart demands to the reflection which is none other than Lorcan Hyde. "Haven't ye learn your lesson the last night?"

"Let me think...nope!" Lorcan Hyde remarks evilly to Brave Heart, laughing right at the alicorn colt.

"How are you back?" Spike ask Lorcan Hyde in concern and alarm. The baby dragon thought that the dark version won't be back after Brave Heart gave him the 'kilt' treatment.

"Well, it's very simple. Old Benny's rage here's what keeps yours truly in existence."

"Brave Heart, what's he talking about?"

"He's usin' Ben's rage as some sort of fuel." Brave Heart said in realization. Not good, the Demon Pony has been get impatient and angry lately due to Kessie's appearance na dher not singing for him.

"Right-A-Roony!" Lorcan Hyde chuckles madly as he motions to the Demon Pony who decided to ignore him and go back to trying to gert Kessie to sing. "And when Mr. Angry Pants here gets really mad, I'll be out of Limbo and then we'll be able to spend some quality family time, Daddy."

"WELL, COME ON, WHY WON'T YOU SING FOR ME?!" The Demon Pony demands angrily, scaring poor Kessie. Spike and Brave Heart tries to get him to stop but he ignored him. "YOU'RE STAYING IN MY CASTLE, RIGHT?! CAN YOU AT LEAST BE A GOOD DEAR AND SING?!"

"Why are you yelling at Kessie as if you own her?" Twilight demands as she and Nyx arrives in the room with Caramel.

"Right, you're only scaring her." Nyx said with a frown.

"I command her to sing, so why won't she?" The Demon Pony snaps to Twilight and Nyx in more anger. Lorcan Hyde chuckles in amusement. It's almost time...

"Well, isn't it obvious? Would you sing if you were in a cage?" Twilight points out to the Demon Pony with a deep frown.

"She got a point, Demon Pony. You wouldn't like it if you were locked in a cage like that, with ponies wanting you to sing like slave masters." Spike said in agreement.

"Well, she got to obey me!" The Demon Pony snaps in frustration while stepping in front of the mare, upsetting the others some more.

"I think we better get going, this could get ugggggly." Pinkamena remarks as she leaves the room. Golden Heart shakes his head as he follows his adopted sister. At this rate, the Demon Pony may as well kiss his chances of returning to normal and finding true love goodbye!

"Why won't you let him out?" Twilight ask the Demon Pony in concenr.

"Why should I? She will just get away." The Demon Pony points out to Twilight in frustration.

"Who could blame her? I would do if..." Brave Heart stops as the Demon Pony glares at him, making the alicorn colt frowns a bit. "On second thought, lad, never mind."

"Look, if only you treat Kessie with respect, she will be happy." Twilight explains, trying to reason with the upset and selfish Demon Pony. "If she is happy, Kessie will sing for all of us."

"FAT CHANCE! Kessie will sing for my pleasure, and mine alone! It is my order!" The Demon Pony yells out furiously, making Twilight more upset as she backs away to the door. Enough is enough.

"All your orders are are just words and words alone!"

Twilight leaves the room, slamming the door closed on her way out, both angry and sad. The Demon Pony groans out, "What gave her the right to speak to me that way..." He then glares at Nyx, Spike and Brave Heart, all of them are upset with his behavior. "And what are you all looking at?!"

"Ugh, fine! If you wanna be a jerk, I will leave!" Spike snaps angrily as he leaves the room. The Demon Pony needs time to cool down of sorts.

" I... I thought you changed. But I guess I was wrong!" Nyx yelled with tears in her eyes. Before the Demon Pony could say anything, Nyx angrily slammed the door and sobbed. "You're still a monster! I HATE YOU!"

Brave Heart, upset, shakes his head while saying, "I'm with Nyx on that matter, Ben lad. You're still the black hearted brat you were before Twilight came into yer life. You're still quite an animal."

The Demon Pony snaps at Brave Heart, "Look who's talking, Brave Heart. You eat haggis instead of plants and such like most ponies do!"

"Don't give me that tone, boy!"

"'Boy'? 'Boy' is it? Again, look who's talking, Brave Heart."

"Ben...I had been fighting evil and preparing for battle since before you had claws. Unless you change your ways...I'm leaving...and...you'll never see me again. Good bye...Ben. Good...bye." Brave Heart said upset as he leaves the room, leaving the Demon Pony all alone with the caged Kessie.

"Brave Heart, wait! Brave Heart, please. No. No, come back. Brave...Heart!" The Demon Pony groans and roaring in frustration, rage and hurt. Once again, his selfish ways is pushing his friends and his dear ones away.

---------

Elsewhere in the castle, a familiar dragon appears in existence, smirking evilly as he crows, "Freedom, thy name is Hyde!"

Okay, this is it, the final chapter of this story. 2012 is now over, it's time for 2013! After this, you all know the drill so let's do this, shall we?

Chapter 14: Respectful Decision

Things has gotten bad since the incidents. The Demon Pony sat in his chair, frowning as he recalls what Twilight, Nyx and Brave Heart said to him, even disowning the creature. He looks at the Kessie, in the cage all depressed.

---------------------

The servants are working in the kitchen, upset by Caramel's new bossy attitude. The colt himself is watching them, making sure that none of them try to even goof off. He is no fun at all.

--------------------------

Twilight and Nyx sat on the bed, saddened by the fact that Kessie is locked in her cage, all because of the Demon Pony who is selfish once more. How will they convince him to change his mind now? Brave Heart and Pinkie are nearby, watching them in sadness. It doesn't look good...

----------------------------

Meanwhile, Applejack is having trouble trotting down a hallway due to it very dark. The filly kept bumping into stuff, she bumped into a table by mistake making her yelp in alarm.

''By golly! It's done hard 'ta see anything in front o' mah face!'' Applejack groans in annoyance. She then saw a sad and concerning sight: Soarin' and Rainbow hugging each other for comfort. "Soarin'? Rainbow Dash? Why ain't yew putting up some light in here?''

"How can we? No light can brighten the black darkness that fallen on our castle now." Soarin' explains to Applejack, making her look down. He's right. With the Demon Pony treating Kessie like a prisoner for his own pleasure and Caramel ordering about like a general, it will take a miracle to fix things now.

----------------------------

Golden Heart and Pinkamena were chatting of what is happening until the pink pony's mane and tail twitch. Golden Heart, knowing this, asked, ''What's wrong?''

"An evil has come and that was met before and it is heading to the West Wing." Pinkamena said seriously, much to Golden Heart's notice.

''I am right behind you."

With that, Pinkamena lead the way to the West Wing to be ready to fight whatever evil is heading to there.

--------------------------------

Twilight and Nyx goes by the parlor as the Demon Pony watch them pass by, feeling guilty as he remembers what the mare just told him, "Would you sing if you were in a cage'?'' The creature wouldn't like it...and also wouldn't want Twilight, Nyx and Brave Heart to hate him forever...he must do the right thing.

Kessie sat in her cage, still sad but looks shocked as the Demon Pony goes to her and grabs the cage, taking it to the West Wong with Caramel, noticing, following him. Upon arrival, the master put the cage right onto the table. Caramel looks worried and scared. What would his master do with poor Kessie?

"The time has come." The Demon Pony snaps as he rips the cage door right open and grabs Kessie. The bird looks frightened, fearing that he would hurt her.

Just then, Lorcan Hyde kicks open the door, laughing, "Here's Lorcan-!'' The double yelps in disgust as he glares to Spike wh appears to be holding something in a frying pan. "Ugh. Daddy, what is that?!"

''Oh...this? It's just Brave Heart's famous haggis recipe.'' Spike remarks to Lorcan Hyde slyly, much to the double's horror.

''Ha-ha-haggis? What's haggis? It smells!''

''Why, it's just...sheep stomach, liver and kidneys.''

Lorcan yelps and looks like he's going to throw out, yelling, ''Oh, Daddy, that's sick! Are you nuts? Are you crackers?!"

''You should try some. It's very delicious.'' Spike said as he holds out the haggis to Lorcan Hyde, much to his horror and further disgust.

"Aaaaaahhhhh! This mad dragon's nuts! I'm getting outta here!"

Lorcan Hyde run out of the West Wing in horror, making Spike chuckle, "'Poor, poor Lorcan. I forgot to mention that it's actually...soy haggis. There's no real meat in it.'' The baby dragon turn to the audience. Brave Heart told me that. Speaking of which, where is that Scottish pony?"

"Not so bad, evil fiend, because..." Pinkamena calls out as she and Golden Heart charges into the West Wing...but saw no sign of Lorcan Hyde. "Wait, where did the bad guy go?"

''You mean Lorcan Hyde? I chased him off with haggis.''

"Ick, worst than pony cupcakes." Golden Heart remarks in disgust by the haggis. "Ben?"

Apparently the confrontation wasn't noticed by the creature or Caramel. The trio looks worried as they saw the Demon Pony...removing the bandages right off Kessie's wing. The master saw the others and saw, ''Oh, Spike, Golden Heart, Pinkamena. Glad you're here. I need your help.''

''What? So you can harass poor Kessie further? No, I will...''

"No, I mean see if Kessie's wing is healed...so I can let her move around and fly again.''

Spike, Golden Heart and Pinkamena look surprised. The Demon Pony isn't upset or annoyed towards Kessie, but is filled with concern, respect and hope. The pink pony checks on Kessie as she flaps her wings, showing that the injured one is better then respond, "Yep! Looks fine to me!''

''Good, it's time for Kessie to go free." The Demon Pony said with a smile, much to the surprise and hope of the trio.

Caramel clears his throat, looking concerned as he said, ''Master, I think you should keep a tighter grip on her or she will fly away from the castle.''

''Won't be necessary, Caramel.'' The Demon Pony said while showing Kessie not struggling or fighting to escape him at all.

''Oh, I get it. You knocked the fight right out of it, eh? Good for you!''

"No, Caramel. The Demon Pony has decided to let Kessie go.'' Golden Heart explains to Caramel with a smile. ''He is doing the right thing and showing respect and love to the little bird.''

''Right, I thought about what Twilight, Nyx and Brave Heart has said...they are right. I am being selfish, an animal...Kessie doesn't need to be locked up in a cage at all. Also, she only stayed because she trusts me.'' The Demon Pony said gently while petting the smiling Kessie to show that he is indeed showing caring and respect to the little bird.

"Wow, sounds cool. I wish Twilight, Nyx and Golden Heart are here to see this." Spike said with a sigh. ''They would've been so proud of ya."

''I know...I plan on apologizing to them soon enough. For now, come and watch."'

The group goes off the balcony to help Kessie go off and fly outside at last. Pinkamena said in precaution, "'Careful, don't wanna hurt her."

''Okay now,, Kessie, go on...fly.'' The Demn Pony said gently.

Kessie nods as she begins flying away from the Demon Pony. The ones on the balcony watch her fly freely and better. For a moment, it looks like everything's going to be all right...but suddenly Kessie ends up flying weakly, she hasn't fully recovered yet!

Kessie fell right onto the statue on the roof, making Caramel groans, ''Oh man, not good!"

Ï got to save her!" The Demon Pony exclaims while jumping off the balcony, landing on the roof by Kessie. But he end up slipping and screaming.

"Master!"

"What's going on? Why are you screaming?"' Nyx ask in concern as she rush onto the balcony. The alicorn filly came to give one more plead to let Kessie got when she heard the commotion.

However Nyx slips and collide into Caramel, sending the two falling off the balcony. The filly lands on the statue near Kessie while the colt grabs his master by the jacket that he's now wearing.

"What's going on out here?" Brave Heart demands as he and Twilight rush onto the scene onto balcony. They heard a commotion but were careful not to fall off like Nyx did.

"'Mommy, daddy, help, help!'' Nyx cry out in fear and in a panic.

"Hey, master, any chance, you can save us as well?'' Caramel ask his master in a panic, referring to himself and Nyx. The Demon Pony climbs up to both Kessie and his daughter.

''What's going on? How did this happened?'' Twilight ask Golden Heart and Pinkamena in concern.

"The Demon Pony has decided to let Kessie go...when this disaster happened. He's redeeming himself at last.'' Golden Heart said sternly much to Twilight and Brave Heart's surprise and hope. The Demon Pony has saw the light and is redeeming himself for his mistakes before!'

"'Hang on, Caramel, I will get you in a minute." The Demon Pony said as he held out his paw. Kessie and Nyx hops onto it, hanging on as best as they could.

"No problem, I am not going anywhere...I hope." Caramel whimpers a bit as he held onto the jackket for dear life.

"Applejack!'' Twilight exclaims as she rush off to get some help before it's too late.

"'Hang on...'' The Demon Pony mumbles as he continues on flying. The group is almost to the balcony.

''Trust me, I got no plans on refusing that order.'' Caramel said meekly. Suddenly he saw to his shock that the jacket is ripping. ''Hoo boy, I remember now. I meant to have that jacket mended.''

Sure enough, the jacket part ripped off, sending Caramel falling while screaming. Pinkamena yelps in alarm, ''Caramel!'' Twilight, who arrived on the ground level with her friends, gasp as they see this happening. Luckily, the jacket part that Caramel is holding onto caught a ledge. He held on but the colt may not for long as the part is ripping once more.

"My friends, please forgive me for acting like a jerk! I thought I would demand your respect than earn it. I guess it's fitting that I would end up this way...alone and helpless.'' Caramel said, apologizing for his behavior and bossy attitude before. The colt gasps as the jacket part is about to rip all the way. "'Yikes! From the looks of things, my time is about to run out!''

Soon the jacket is ripped all the way, causing Caramel screams as he fell downward. It looks like it's all over...but of course the others grab him in the nick of time with a cloth, saving the colt in time.

"Well, looks like Earth ponies can fly.'' Soarin' joke a bit making Caramel frown to him. Regardless, the others has forgiven him for how he has treated the others, enough to save the colt from doom.

The Demon Pony has reached the balcony with Nyx and Kessie, all of them are smiling as the filly alicorn nuzzling the creature, forgiving him for how he acted. Suddenly Lorcan Hyde rush in, roaring, ''I am not done yet!''

Lorcan Hyde jumps at Nyx and the bird but ends up missing, causing him to fall over the balcony. Everyone watch as the dragon villain screams as he ends up falling right down the chasm that Soarin' and Rainbow almost fell in before.

"Was that...'' Brave Heart begin to ask Golden Heart and Pinkamena puzzled and concerned.

"What, you mean Lorcan Hyde? Yeah, he tried to get the Demon Pony and cause trouble but we end up foiling him.'' Spike explains to Brave Heart with a smirk. "I doubt we will seen him again.''

''Aye...and Ben? Ye did good, lad.''

Ben smiles to Kessie as she flew out of his paw and goes to Twilight, thanking her for taking care of the bird. The mare watch as the blue bird flew out, fully free and recovered once more.

--------

The Demon Pony and Twilight finally have lunch together, with Nyx, Spike, Brave Heart, Golden Heart and Pinkamena attending at the long table in the dining room. Caramel came out of the kitchen as he watch the ponies bringing the food out. This time, the colt did was Applejack has done, talk to the staff nicely and sweetly.

''Oooh, food.'' Nyx said happily as the food is served to the ponies who begins to eat.

Twilight saw a familiar bird flying outside, the mare smiles while saying, "Look, it's your friend.''

The Demon Pony was puzzled until he saw Kessie flying back by the window. The master smiles while saying, "She has came back.''

"Aye, and all because ye did the right thing in teaching her with kindness and respect. I am so proud of ye.'' Brave Heart said in approval. Everyone watch as Kessie and a male bird are on a tree branch, nuzzling one another. Looks like the blue bird has found a new friend...or even more.

''Well, well, love is in the air for sure.'' Soarin' said with a grin of approval.

"Right and it all begins with trust.'' Caramel said with a grin making Soarin' and Applejack roll their eyes at this. Here he goes again! ''Why, with mutual respect, as I always said, all relationships must be firmly based on that...''

Soarin' and Applejack covers their ears, not wanting to hear more of Caramel's wind-blasted explaination. Twilight, trotting over to the two, motion them to be quiet as they go over to watch Kessie and her bird-friend. The Demon Pony and Nyx stood near the mare while ignoring Caramel's explanation.

---------------------

As Golden Heart and Pinkamena are about to leave, a Golden Pheonix came though the door as the alicorn opened it. The bird freak the ponies out, thinking it was something else, but Golden Heart says, "Gold Wing, calm yourself, these are our friends."

"He is right so come here.'' Pinkamena said calmly to Gold Wing.

With that, the Phoenix then stop and landed on Golden Heart's lifted right hoof. and the poniess got to see the golden bird with Twilight saying, I've seen another Phoenix like this but what is it holding in its talons?"

With that said, Golden Heart and Pinkamena see a letter with a seal that Golden heart knows (it is Celestia) making him say, ''So there is but it needs to be read by my eyes and my sister only. I hope you understand.''

"I do. Anyway you best get going now whlie the storm has died down.''

''Indeed, come little sister.''

"Ok big brother.'' Pinkamena said. With that, the two head outside and, as the door is closed, then the Phoenix gives the letter to Pinkamena and she opens it for Golden heart and her to read.

Epilogue

The cliff is abandoned and hard to get out. Anypony who falls in is dead...but one survives, enough to climb out. It's Lorcan Hyde, he survived his fall not so long ago and is out for revenge.

''Oh, when I get those ponies especially daddy, heads are going to roll. They will all...'' Lorcan Hyde said furiously as he is close to getting out of his chasm prison, planning on vengeance on the Demon Pony, Twilight, Spike and their friends.

Just then Lorcan Hyde heard a scream, looking up to see Boris falling towards him, falling to his doom after his fight with the Demon Pony.

''This may hurt.'' Lorcan Hyde groans as Boris hits him, causing the dragon villain to black out.
