Previously on Of Mare and Moon… “Of course, dear Twilight, I’m hindering you and your friends’ abilities to move so that I may finally bring eternal night once and for all. Wait a minute, who is this? She’s not a pony!” said Nightmare Moon watching her screen. “It is finally done. Once you all have this soup, you will be ready to take down the evil one,” said Zecora. “Sorry but it’s no soup for any of you!” yelled Carnage coming in and taking Zecora. “Un-hoof me! You will pay, just wait and see!” called Zecora while being taken away. “I’ll save ya! *she twirls a rope and wraps it around Carnage’s leg* Time to reel her in! *she pulls on the rope but it snaps and Carnage gets away with Zecora* Tarnation, I almost had her!” proclaimed Applejack. “Don’t worry, Applejack, Nightmare Moon won’t get away with this!” replied Twilight. “If that Zecora tricked us into drinking this, then she’ll regret the day bein’ born,” said Applejack. “We can’t just run off and try to save Zecora…..literally,” protested Twilight. “Well what the hay are we supposed to do then?” asked Applejack. *Twilight hiccups* “Oh excuse me,” said Twilight. *Applejack hiccups* “Hehe, pardon,” said Applejack. *She and Twilight lose 2 pounds* “Applejack, I think the soup is working,” said Twilight hiccupping again. “I think you’re….*she hiccups*…..right, Twilight,” agreed Applejack. *she and Twilight lose 2 more pounds* “Oh my, are you sure you both didn’t drink the soup too fast?” asked Fluttershy. “We don’t……*she hiccups*…..know but either way, the soup is helping us,” answered Twilight. *she and Applejack lose 2 more pounds* “Okay just hold your breath for a minute,” said Fluttershy. “I don’t think that’s our……*she hiccups and loses 2 pounds*……issue, Fluttershy,” said Twilight. “It’s mighty kind of ya to offer that info though,” said Applejack. “Alright, I can walk normally now,” said Twilight. “Give your magic a whirl too,” said Applejack. *Twilight tries and gets her magic working* “Boy howdy, Twilight, we’re back to normal,” remarked Applejack. “Now that my magic is back I don’t think we’ll need the carriage anymore. *she uses her magic to return the carriage to Ponyville* Now let’s go get our friend back,” said Twilight. “Yeehaw, that’s what I’ve been waitin’ to do,” said Applejack. “I guess I’ll return to Ponyville then, seeing as how I probably won’t be all that useful in saving Zecora,” said Fluttershy sadly. “You may not be able to help us fight her but you can probably try and get Zecora out while we take on Nightmare Moon,” suggested Twilight. “I guess I could try,” said Fluttershy cheering up. *They head off* [Meanwhile, in Pon-Evil…] “It’s time for our new friend to be more willing to be with us. *she heads down to the dungeon* You’re a bit tied up at the moment aren’t you? Well we’ll free you but first you need a bit of an adjustment. *she uses her magic to turn Zecora evil, then unties her and leads her back upstairs* How’s it feel to be evil?” said Nightmare Moon. “It feels good, All of us will seal their fate!” answered Zecora. “I couldn’t have put it better myself. Come and find your friend Zecora, Twilight. You’ll find she isn’t the same anymore, thanks to me,” said Nightmare Moon. *Twilight and her friends enter down below* “Our guests have arrived,” said Scar Sting. “That reminds me. Scorching Carnage, find the Rainbow Dash that betrayed me and bring her here as well. It’s time she pay for last time,” ordered Nightmare Moon. “We need someone brave, daring, someone to work for us, the Shadowbolts,” said Shadowbolt 2. (The middle of the three Shadowbolt ponies). “No problem at all, she can’t outrun me,” assured Carnage. *She heads off* [With Rainbow Dash…] “I’ve almost got my new Super-sonic Rainboom perfected to show my friends. It goes even farther and faster than my normal Rainboom,” said Rainbow Dash. “It doesn’t matter how fast you are, you won’t outfly me,” said Carnage. “Who’s there? I’m tougher than you think I am!” said Rainbow Dash. “The danger you’re in now is tougher than you could ever imagine!” said Carnage. *she laughs evilly*
